• HARD drive went from NTFS to RAW

  My Seagate external DRIVE of 2 TB drive went to RAW all of a sudden.

  First thing I tried to do was to retrieve my data using testdisk and photorec mainly... who did not work.
  I also tried some tools of Parted Magic CD Bootable.
  I also tried to mount it in ubuntu 10.04 where I got the message that this disc must be fixed on running chkdsk from windows.

  I am running windows vista 32 bit.

  When I plug my HARD drive, I can hear the specific sound.
  The thing is that I do not see my drive on 'my computer' or 'disk management '.

  I run 'wmic logicaldisk get name' and I saw my drive (probably F).

  Sometimes, when it's pluged I get this cloud message indicating that there is a unknown device.
  I'm trying to update the driver, but I get the message that I use the most updated driver for this device.

  What can I do to regain access to my valuable data again?

  Thank you in advance!

  In general this message means the disc is damaged and the files it contains may be unrecoverable.  More you try to lose with the reader and recovering files, it is less likely that you will be able to.  You can still be able to recover the files, check with the manufacturer of the car and see if they have a test or utility to see what the problem with the repair disk.

• Is it possible to work on projects iMovie on external hard drives in order to save disk space on my macbook (the internal hard drive has little space)?

  Hello!

  I have a problem working with iMovie on my MacBook Air... Drive HARD internal of the MacBook is unfortunately to small for the biggest projects iMovie... Is there a way to work on external hard drives or perhaps TimeCapsule?

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Yes, put your iMovie library/ies on a fast (7200 RPM) external hard drive to the Apple format is a good way of working.  Details of the setting up of libraries are covered in the help files to:

  http://help.Apple.com/iMovie/Mac/10.1/#/mov3fa25bae7

  Note that you may need to consolidate the media in an existing library before you travel to avoid breaking links to media located in the libraries from other Apple applications.  See:

  http://help.Apple.com/iMovie/Mac/10.1/#/mov882dee351

  I would not recommend using Time Capsule - you would need a separate partition above the used by time machine, and you could put some data on the same drive as backup.  Connection speed can also be a problem.

• My hard drive went bad so I bought a new. I installed Windows Vista and everything works until I try to install SP1...

  As I said in the title, my hard drive went bad on my Dell XPS 420.  I was running 32 bit windows vista service Pack 2 since the last time my hard drive gone bad.  The first time I replaced my hard drive I used the cd of Windows Vista install with cd drivers and using automatic updates of windows.  In a few hours, I had my pc up and running.  But with this record, it's a completely different story.

  I did the same thing with her.  Installed Windows and drivers as before and I go ahead and do the automatic updates.  Everything is okay until I get to point when I download and install windows Service Pack 1.  I download, install and it seems to work very well.  Then it restarts to complete the installation and configuration.  After about 30 minutes of this, he finally said service pack error.  Restoration of the changes.  He then takes 30 minutes more to do.  After that, I get a screen saying that Windows does not start.  A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.  Follow-up by telling him to use the windows cd repair section.
  I did this 3 or 4 times to do different techniques.  I did it with the automatic windows update.  Manually as an administrator.  After using the analysis tool in Windows Vista and in another way when restore you some files.  I am about to throw my pc because I've probably spent nearly 10 hours of messing around with it and honestly it's not my time unless there is ANOTHER way that deserves to be tried before I "Offices" of the thing.
  Honestly, I think I read every article on this subject online.  If I type in service pack 1 and vista online I went to all the links on the first 10-12 pages...
  If anyone has AN idea please let me know.  Yes, I would like at the office space that it but it would also be good to have another pc with a new hard drive...
  Thank you.

  Hello

  If you go to Start, all programs, Windows Update and view update history, you will see the entry failed for SP1.

  If you right-click and choose details, it should give you the details of the error.

• Hard drive data from the sector error on desktop HP Pavilion magnesium grey Edition p6404y

  I have a HP Pavilion p6404y desktop computer. I uninstalled and reinstalled the HP Support Assistant. When I run the wizard it tells me this - "WDC WD10 EADS-65M2B1 CMSS Disk Device-4 errors in data sectors make unusable sector." He suggested I have a scanner. If I run the quick scan, it ends and shows just as fine. If I run a full scan, it reaches 62% complete (i.e. 99% of the "left foot" criterion) and seems to freeze. I left alone for two hours to get that last percent of this test, then I just give up and cancel, so I was not able to complete a full scan.

  Also, often, when I start my computer first, I get a screen that says: "one of your disks should be checked for consistency.

  Then, he turns his thing and says it is finished and then starts.

  It seems to be very slow all the time, too.

  I also, lately, get a box saying my performance is slow, I want to move from Windows Aero to Windows basic to help performance.

  So I wonder, my hard drive takes a dump, or what? This system is only two years old.

  Thank you!

  Hi techrex, I would say by restarting and pressing F9 to enter the Diagnostics screen and run diagnostics on your HARD drive.  If you get an error I'd say calling HP support to see what they suggest - could be that your HARD drive is on its way.

  If this is the case, immediately save all your work, photos, emails, etc..  Make your recovery DVD (press F11 at startup and have up to 4 ready virgins of DVD quality to make your recovery disks.

  If you need to replace the HARD drive yourself, it will be easy to recover the PC with your recovery discs.

  Remember: use esd protection and always disconnect your PC from the network if you plan to open the chassis and replace the HARD drive or perform another task on your PC, like blowing any dust with a can of compressed air.

  I would like to know if this suggestion helps.

• Why my hard drive randomly not detected by bios? Presario F700

  Hello
  I tried to fix a problem I had with my laptop.

  Presario F700
  p/n: KW061UA
  No BONE, was trying to install Windows 7

  Well, let me start at the beginging.  I've updated the Ram in my laptop from 2 GB to 4 GB.
  I continued to find that when I have titlted my laptop that would freeze windows and I will have to reboot. So I replaced the hard drive because I think that the laptop was overheating and damage the hard drive.

  I had this problem until I replaced the hard drive. The new drive is a 160 GB Western Digital WD1600BEKT
  I also have a cooling the laptop fan to sit on.
  So now the question... I put in new hard drive. I put in my USB key to install Windows 7. Everything seems to go big. Then after that it says is necessary to continue the installation of Windows, it turns off but never comes back.
  So I go into the BIOS and it does not show the drive there! I restart and watch again and now the hard drive is there... So I try again... and it restarts this time, but it freezes when I put the rest of the information for Windows. It's so random detecing hard drive.
  Also, I checked and saw that my BIOS is up to date.
  I even read that reinstalling the RAM can solve... but no. I am at a loss and would appreciate any help!

  The only other possibility is not good... a faulty motherboard.

• My external hard drive missing from my computer

  Hi everyone is smarter than me... which would include about each of you.  ;-)
  I have a Western Digital 1 TB external hard drive connected to my laptop Dell Inspiron 6000 Intel Pentium clocked at 1.86 GHz proc running Windows XP V2002 Pro 32 bit SP3. Until a few days ago the WD is working fine since I bought it about 3 years ago.

  The problem: the drive is listed in the device as Manager works fine but it does not appear in my computer. I reinstalled the WD software and run the diagnosis that came back with a mistake or two test and repair but not yet in MyComp. I searched the entire computer, but the E: drive is not there. I have studied this thing to the end, including the proposed solutions on Microsoft here, but I am against the wall and do not know what else to do.

  Any suggestions?
  Thanks in advance!
  Mike

  Me = SHOUTING, CHEERING, YELLING, CELEBRATING, essentially going nuts!  :-)

  Guess what, y ' All? I found my Western Digital external hard drive!  I'm so excited!  I was not happy that since my children were born.  Laughing out loud.

  AND I OWE IT ALL TO TECH-GEEK! THANK YOU 1 BILLION, JILLION AND GAZILLION, BILLIONS OF TIMES!

  Your post today mentioning external hard drive to your customer and how you had retrieved all the data using http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk, it's what saved my life! I spent very little time on their site and very little time running of the programme and BING POW ZOOM! My drive is back, fully intact, not a single missing file!  I think it's all because I was able to give the drive a name (you know, L for logic and so forth). Because as soon as I wrote the files on the disk - which literally seconds - restarted, and BINGO! She's back in my computer!

  I can't begin to even formulate words to properly express how I am grateful to you, TG. I am most grateful. Can I make a donation to your charity in your name?

  A BAJILLION THANKS!

• How to find files of outlook data on a hard drive removed from a windows xp machine?

  My phone no longer works and I was able to get most of the data of my backups that they did not understand my outlook e-mail accounts. I have the removed disk and got a hard drive enclosure. Problem is that I can not locate the outlook.pst file. Do you know which directory it is?

  The default location is C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserNameSettings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and the default name is Outlook.pst

  You can place Outlook files anywhere that you want so you will have to search for *.pst to find them all [assuming you have created several].

  If you want to put them in a place which is included in your backups in Windows 7, then:

  1 close Outlook after consuming at least once [the file is created on first use].

  2. go in C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook [you must show hidden files to reveal the path to get there, or you can simply paste the path into the address box of Windows Explorer to join directly the]

  3 move the Outlook.pst you will find at a convenient location in My Documents.

  4. open Outlook.  Will report you that it cannot find Outlook.pst and will give you the ability to browse for it then point to where you put the file.  [When you open Outlook, it will look at the new location without asking any other]

• Hard drive being highly accessible all few seconds, although it is, the computer crashes

  Since about 3 days (or at least that is the oldest I noticed it, but he couldn't have done it much earlier) my computer was freezing for 3-4 seconds, while the hard drive turns on solid. This occurs regardless of whether the computer is nothing or not constantly every few seconds. I went around the internet looking for ideas, but nothing I tried to (disable superfetch, windows search, start in safe mode, update drivers, looking for the raid drivers, disarm avg, defragmentation and simply drop each program without importance, I can get away with) had no effect.

  The computer is an Alienware M15x, I got less than two months ago (totally awesome Christmas gift). It has Windows 7 Home Edition premium on it, a hard disk of 500 GB that says all diagnostics works very good and 6 GB of ram, I had AVG Antivirus on it too (until I took it in the attempt to solve this problem), and the protection of the system (the backups and whatnot) was already disabled. I also did a restore system before it started doing this, but which did not help either.

  The only problem it says that appears when I generate a health report to the system that is the disk queue length average 2-3 and going as high as 30. I can sit and watch points every 2-3 seconds since the resource monitor, which coincides with the HDD light will the computer crashes. It does even in safe mode, and it made all the games freeze market too.

  I'm completely at the end of my tether here and nothing I tried worked, is there something I'm missing here?

  Absolutely nothing worked, I'll try to reinstall windows, and if that does not do, Alienware will repair this one way or another. Thanks for the suggestions so.

  (edit a few hours later)

  I reinstalled, and it always does, so the hard drive needs to be spoiled. guess I must return.

• I added a 128 gB microSD card to provide the space for my photos, (a second hard drive) but lightroom won't let me not import all the pictures that are already on the map. The only import option is 'copy', not 'Add '.

  I had a problem with Lightroom on Microsoft Surface 3.  I added a 128 gB microSD card to provide the space for my photos, (a second hard drive) but lightroom won't let me not import all the pictures that are already on the map.  The only import option is 'copy', not 'Add '.  I worked around this by mounting a network directory containing photos and imported from there.  Is it possible to stop Lightroom to see such a map as a camera?

  I have not tested, but it should work with Lightroom:

  Not sure what happens if you remove the card and put in a similar SD card. I would like to test it so that you know what to expect.
