Vista does not properly, possible video driver problem

My computer doesn't load windows, I have a quick flash of blue screen with the details, but all I can read is "the video driver failed time-out.  I have not recently installed programs/software.  I can access the screen to enter the password, but most of the time can get in Safe Mode.  I tried to restore my computer to a later date, but that doesn't seem to work.  Before it is a disconnection in itself & go to the same user password screen.  Oh and when you start think about loading windows but screen goes black & I have to disconnect the system shut down because the power button on the Tower works.  Can someone please!  I don't want to consider to get fixed because I just had to replace the hard drive in February, because he was fired.  Thank you

  • Tecra S3: Installation of Vista does not recognize the HARD drive

    I try to install Vista Ultimate on my Tecra S3, but installation does not recognize the HARD drive.

    I tried to find the driver for Vista for my computer, but not found RAID.
    Tried it with XP drivers, but no longer works.

    Do you have an idea where I can download Vista drivers for RAID?

    THX

    Hello

    Your suggestion is good. The Tecra S3 supports the RAID, and the RAID driver is required to install the OS on the HARD drive.
    On the European driver Toshiba page I found a RAID for XP driver.

    I put t know if this driver will run under Vista, but I recommend to test.
    The RAID XP 1.3.8.0 driver version can be downloaded from this site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    Please note; You can store the RAID driver on an external USB and Vista should recognize it!

    Good luck

  • Vista does not recognize external hard drive (LONG!)

    I bought a Terrabite Cavalry USB Mass Storage 1 unit some time around January 2009. We used it to back up my computers portable wife and daughters without any problems (it was Windows XP a Windows Vista). Shortly after, we have tried to back up my desktop computer, also running Windows Vista, but my computer does not recognize the drive into any USB port. After this attempt, we get is more willing to work on any computer. We contacted the cavalry and they replaced the drive, but we lost a lot of data since most of the files saved on my wife and daughter desktops have been deleted to clean up their hard drives.
    When I received the spare drive I backed up my computer with no problems.
     
    We moved from NC to PA in August of last year and had packed the new car. Recently, we unpacked and used to transfer ALL the photos of my wife, numbering several hundred, again with no problems. In addition, she has saved his computer using the Vista utility. Today, I made the horrible mistake of trying to back up my computer using the same player. I had completely forgotten the previous question. Yet once, my computer did not recognize the drive, any USB port used or on the tabs 'computer '. When the drive is plugged in and turned on, it will be not even allow us to display the elements on the tab 'computer '.
     
    And now, just as before, the player no longer works on my wife's computer either. THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL QUESTION! If we cannot access the drive over 500 photos of our family, covering more than 5 years are lost forever!
     
    Although I've read similar questions on this site (especially in regards to Windows XP) I can't find the one that is exactly the same problem as this.
    There is nothing wrong with my computer. Each USB port works fine. I tried other USB devices with no problems of any kind.
     
    On both computers, if you connect the external drive and the power up it starts with a light blue on the front as it is supposed to. He then became red and Windows makes the normal audio alert, as it does with any USB device plugged. On the bar, the new icon 'Remove hardware safely', says but clicking on that alone causes the computer to get ung place intil the drive is unplugged. The same is tru if we try to access the tab "Computer" in the Start Menu. The computer attempts to load the itms 'Computer' but never the completion of the task. THE TWO COMPUTER DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING! My wife uses a Dell with Vista Home Premium and I use an EMachine with Vista Home Basic. And this issue seems to happen only after using his computer to mine, not the other way around because I had done a backup on thise drive when I got last year and she just did a new now on his own.
    I wrote to the Cavalry, but received no response. They said the last time that they aren't able to recover lost data, and it is said that all over their site.
    The external drive is a cavalry model # CAXP3701PA.
    Someone please help! Pictures of our last five years (including photos of my wife of his precious Golden Retriever from puppy to now) are lost if we cannot solve this problem. It seems that the player works well, but something corrupting of the software driver. We tried again to my wife's computer o and it begins with "Download driver software for device" but then what I described before using it.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Put the disc in a real store of the computer (not the leeks and the glances at a Best Buy or other stores)
    and they can remove the drive from the case and put it in another computer to back up data
    to other media. Of course this cancels any warranty and may not work if the drive has probably
    in fact failed. Data can often be recovered since a failed drive while it's expensive.

    (The drive could be put in either your PC as a 2nd drive).

    I hope this helps.

  • Satellite L - Vista does not recognize the HARD drive

    OK, I have spent the last 5 days or more trying and do not install vista on the laptop miserable with no chance and ive finally succumb to ask for help here.

    Does anyone know what driver I need to use to allow Vista to recognize the SATA drive? I got some drivers download Toshiba chipsets article section and put it on a USB key, but they do not work. I get the message "Windows cannot locate the disk media to install windows" or a similar message. If I load all the drivers, then its just total failure - Windows installation procedure says that it cannot find the target medium or such a message. He develops files, loads the files and then stops and gives this message. There are all sorts of other stupid messages that would normally make me want to take the / offending laptop and throw it out the window. Needless to say, has not yet happened.

    Also does computer some odd scratching / clicking noises during installation - it seems to come under the laptop - looks like it's either a problem with the hard drive or DVD drive, or both. I get up then a blue "Material error" message screen of death

    I know it's not nice to go and my error messages are a bit vague (I must have spent countless hours installation and got so many error messages to send me brain dead mode) but thought id just ask to get some ideas - thank you.

    > "Windows cannot locate the disk media to install windows" or a similar message.
    You can install windows without use drivers SATA.
    Access the BIOS and set the SATA from AHCI compatible mode mode.
    This should allow to install the OS

  • Spider Solitaire for Vista does not properly - black and white

    Need help, there's a week my Spider Solitaire went wobbly.  I have Vista to the Microsoft home page.  It comes in black and white and sort of close.  Other games play ok.  How can I reinstall the Spider Solitaire to work properly?  Any ideas?

    I had the same problem. I noticed it starts just after that Windows Update installed the new version of the driver 7991 for card NVIDIA GeForce 7150 M / nForce 630M video adapter. I have a HP Pavilion dv6000 running Vista Home Premium SP1. I rode just go back to the 7.15.11.7713 driver version, and it works well again.

  • Windows7 - error msgs & MGP works does not properly after changing drive letter

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    When first, I partitioned my HARD drive, the 2nd logical drive was labeled J:, who was the next available letter after all the optical drives and integrated flash memory readers.

    I prefer to label it D: (to follow immediately from the boot partition which is C :).  I used the functionality of disk management to change the drive letter of the J: to D: (and of course move the rest optical drives and integrated flash memory ready in 1 letter).

    When I run some programs, I get this error message:

    "There is no disk in the drive. Insert a disc into drive \Device\Harddisk4\DR4.

    Options click below this message are "Cancel", "Try again" or "continue".

    Some programs, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Works word processor and spreadsheet, clicking on one of the 3 options will allow the program to operate normally.

    For other programs, such as Windows Live Movie Maker, clicking options will cause a "Drive not ready" message and lead to more problems.  For example, I can not load my existing projects, because I can't get to the screen that allows me to navigate through drives and folders to choose my file.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the Movie Maker, but the problem is still there.

    Seems to me that it is not the individual programs that are at the origin of the problem, but something in Windows 7 itself.

    How can I get rid of the error messages and get the programs to run normally?  Do I have to edit the registry of Windows 7?  If so, what will exactly be changed?

    Thanks in advance.

    Think I found the answer.  Looks like it is a problem of registry after all.  That's what I did:

    (1) go to the start menu.

    (2) execute Regedit by typing "regedit" in the search box and press .

    (3) the search for "J:" in the whole registry.

    (4) when a directory path is starting by 'J' and the pursuit of my familiar subfolder names, I should now start with "D:" instead, I right click on it, choose "Edit" and change the "J" to "D".  (Note: I only change to directory paths that looked familiar to me and I'm sure that should now start with "D:".)  I change all instances of "J:" that were found).

    (5) once this is over, choose 'File', then 'leave '.

    A ran programs that have already given the error message.  No error message comes this time.  Restarted the PC and programs run.  Once again, no error message.  I hope that things stay effortless.

  • Graphic drive does not properly.

    Problem does not occur in safe mode.  Failure seems to occur on any key or the video style.

    From your post, I guess that the configuration of the system now recognizes the hard drive?

    If you do not have a floppy drive, then BIOS can find the player who isn't there, it returns this error.

    Make sure that the floppy drive [drive A] is disabled in the [BIOS] installation system, page 173, so that it is no longer looking for the disc and see if this stops the error message.

    If the hard drive is recognized in the configuration of the system, he now knows in windows "My computer" or in "disk management, [right click on 'My computer' and select 'Manage', then disk management]."

  • Vista does not recognize my drive sata hard.

    • I have a Sony Vaio and this laptop is running Vista on a drive sata hard and the hard drive failed, I am trying to load Vista on a clean hard disk SATA of Toshiba. Vista does not see the hard disk and can not find the drivers for the SATA hard drive. I called Toshiba and they said that the hard drive is plug-and-play this is why there is no drivers and asked me to call Sony to the motherboard drivers. Sony said that you need for the Vaio recovery disc. I ordered the recovery disks and still have the same result. I have checked the BIOS and can not see anywhere to set up a sata drive. What can I do to fix this?

    Hi Dl54,

    A. is the hard drive is detected in the BIOS?

    B. what happens when you restart the computer?

    C. you get errors?

    D. What is the exact error message that you receive?

    You can check if the drive is detected in the BIOS, but will not all SATA configuration option in the BIOS.

    I suggest you to download the SATA drivers on the Sony site on a flash drive and load it during the installation.

    After that you start from the vista DVD, follow the instructions on the screen to install vista. You will see a screen where you choose the partition to install vista. You will find an option to load a driver on the same screen to the bottom of the left hand of the window.

    Click load a driver > Browse to the location of the drivers and start installing the drivers.

    Please answer in return.
