• Vista backup cannot find the backup device, is to say "searching for devices to backup...". "

  For Windows Vista-32 SP2:

  I recently had the hard drive replaced on my laptop.  Now I'm doing a backup, but when I start Windows Backup, it gets stuck constantly "looking for backup... devices. "I have a WD My Book external hard drive formatted NFTS connected via a USB port that works beautifully with the backup before replace hard drive.  The drive will appear in my computer, so I don't know that it is very well hung.

  Any ideas why Backup cannot recognize him now?

  Hi IdahoMt,

  1. are you able to select the other readers?

  I would ask you to set the computer to clean the start state, and then try to run the backup and verify.

  You can read the following article to put the computer in a clean boot:

• Win 7 Backup and Restore does not recognize the USB flash drives.

  Win 7 Backup and Restore does not recognize the USB flash drives for a backup image or a recovery disc.  Given that Windows 7 Starter Edition is used in many, if not most of the netbooks and netbooks have no optical drive, support for flash (thumb) drives would be very handy, especially for repair and recovery.

• Impossible to get the USB flash drive to work

  I have a new Satellite L500 with Windows 7 and it will not recognize/install the USB flash drives. A msg comes up saying "software device driver has been properly installed. I tried several flash drives - they are OK & work on other machines - including an another Toshiba running Windows 7.

  Other devices work in the USB ports, so the ports are OK.
  Windows cannot resolve the problem, I have checked all USB drivers are updated in Device Manager & made a system of analysis of file without success.
  The Bank recommended a reload & restore factory default - other options?

  Have you installed driver chipset?
  Your laptop comes with Vista or Win7?

  You have just upgraded to Vista or Win7 clean setting?

• Windows does not recognize the USB flash drive

  Hello
  My USB does not work when I plug. It seems that Windows recognizes the device because it is found in the Solution Explorer window, but if I want to create a folder or a file on the USB key I have the following message:
  "Cannot find this article.
  It is no longer in < %3="" null :="" optext=""> . Check the location of the components and try again. " < br=""> also the files that are copied to the USB flash drive are not visible in Explorer and it looks like the drive is empty.

  I want to emphasize that the same (Kingston) USB flash drive works perfectly under Windows XP operating system on another computer so it may not be a problem with the device. The same problem also appears when you use a different USB (another manufacturer).

  Thank you!

  Hey, 101 a.

  , I just posted a fix I found for my USB flash/go to work again.  It was a very simple solution, too.

  I unplugged all USB devices first, then tried my USB jump drive again.  IT WORKED! I've narrowed the problem to the new printer that I use.  It's a Mono Dell Laser MFP 1125.  Whenever it is plugged into a USB port, my USB doesn't work.  All other devices work, but not the USB is the printer is connected

  I don't know what done to block the flash/USB key, but unplug printer allows the jump command to work again.  I will contact Dell on what did the printer driver to block the flash player.  Just an info on the fix I found.

• Time Machine will back up to two different computers on the same hard drive?

  I just got a Seagate Plus for Mac backup copy.  When I plugged it in, right away, he said "Would you use Time Machine?" (as opposed to included Seagate Dashboard).  I said 'Of course'.  It is then backed up my computer all with Time Machine.  So far so good.  But my wife also got an iMac, running OS 10.9.5 (don't ask!)  Can I plug the drive into his computer and ask Time Machine to back up?  Or who will crush the back-up, I just make my computer?

  TimeMachine will gladly be backup Mac on the same drive and separate them.

• How to install a second operating system on a partition on the same hard drive under xp?

  Hello!.. How can I install a second operating system on a partition on the same hard drive under xp?... Thanks in advance!

  With the elders the older operating systems, in this case 98, has prior installation.

  Is that of Vista as soon as it does not matter what operating system is installed first to do a dual boot.

  With Vista, you can then install XP as the second installed the operating system in a dual boot.

  But this isn't like you do is 98 or XP...

  See you soon.

• Windows cannot read the disk in drive c.

  I recently bought 5 blank DVDs to burn files, but when I put the disk, it showed no AutoPlay, even if I check suggestions asking me every time, but when I double click on the CD player, it says this message, "Windows cannot read the disk in drive c." can someone help me with this problem?

  Not all DVDs are the same, there are many different types and some DVD players may require a particular type

  If the DVD is blank has nothing to read, that it is not formatted/prepared

  With a dvd in the drive, in Solution Explorer, select a file, rt-click and select send to DVD, it works

• How to run windows 7 on the laptop already installed windows 8 from the same hard drive

  Hello

  I use a computer dell laptop with windows 8 OS. I want to install Windows 7 as another operating system on the same laptop. I got the image file on the hard disk in a different partition. I have not found any flash drive or dvd close to home. So, is it possible to make from the same laptop?
  Thank you
  Teja

  You will need to put the contents of the ISO image of Windows 7 on a DVD/Flash drive file and start, but after that you can install it on the same hard drive.  You could take little space and divide your hard drive into multiple partitions and install on one of them, or you can create a virtual hard disk (VHD) file and install on that.

  I wrote about the VHD method on my site back when Windows 8 came out first, but it works backwards too.

• I already have one zero drive for FCP 7 projects implemented.  I would use the same scratch drive for FCP 10.  Is there a special way of implementation is seamless?

  Said to implement the scratch disc so I can use the same hard drive for FCP 7 and 10 projects - something on a folder separated for 10 projects.  What are the steps to do t his?

  More details would be useful. You have already imported media in FCP7? Or you are just starting to work with both applications at the same time? What application you plan to use to ingest media? Don't try to use them both for ingest.  You can set FCPX to use the FCP7 Capture Scratch location for your support and then let the media imported in place. You can also assign a location for media to import using FCPX and then use this location for FCP7, again leaving the media in place.

  Or I totally misunderstood and you only talking about using the same drive, which is not a problem at all.
