  • Dell Power edge 2850 will not let me install windows server 2003

    Hello

    I tried to install windows server 2003 on a few servers, I received a few weeks back.  The RAID put a system in place and turned but when it tries to install WS he says that there are no hard drives.

    I bought a 2950 on Ebay the month last but never had the intention on the installation of a Windows operating system, but I downloaded the ISO of DVD here file and installed without any problem they send you a key to save the operating system. I updated the bios after this and no problem. You never said how many hard drives you have, but make sure that you have two or more. So far, I've installed VMWare ESXi which was supported on 2950 but I settled with XenServer 6.5.0 and I 2003 server running as a virtual machine which works very well.

    I have a Dell XPS workstation I have recently reinstalled Windows 7 on it but I had only one drive is connected and the operating system could not see all of the hard drives. After that a second device and do not use raid on this machine, I was able to install Windows. I tried the ISO Live Dell 2850 version but it is not a. Which includes diagnostic tools. When you by a Dell there pre installed in a hidden partition on the disk utility, you can run, but it really isn't anything I know install that. Usually the F12 key will give you a list of items to boot from and if she isn't here the disk, it cannot run. The diagnostic utility that is.

  • Satellite P100 - 194 PSPA6E does not start and will not let me install Windows

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Satellite phone, witch, I got from my brother. I don't know what he did with it, but he does not know.

    When I start the PXE - E61 "Media test failure, check cable" appears. In the BIOS I put in the directory Boot LAN mode on the last position, but despite this failure E61 appears.

    I tried to reinstall Windows XP. The laptop started from the CD and the blue screen appeared and loaded XP drivers needed. But at the end of it, when you enter normally on the menu to choose where to install windows, the screen is black and in the upper left corner a small beam blinked on and outside and nothing happens plus.
    The same thing happens when I leave the laptop HARD drive and start again from the XP installation CD but this time without the HARD disc logically.
    So I thought that the HARD drive is broken and I put it in my desktop PC to test. I installed XP on the drive HARD Satellite in my PC, which worked without problems in my PC. So, I come to the conclusion that the HARD drive is not broken.
    And my BIOS Satellite detects my HARD drive and displays the name of it.

    But what is the problem with the laptop when it is not the HARD drive and BIOS show the good name of the HARD drive? Can someone help me please?

    Hello

    The story is very strange boyfriend generally that the PXE error if the laptop tries to boot from LAN. But in the case where starting LAN source in unavailable, the PXE error appears and shows this message.

    Usually, the BIOS passes LAN Boot option because the other options are not active. This means that the CD/DVD drive does not any bootable disk and the HARD disk is dead.

    So, as you can see you hypothesis was right that the HARD drive could be faulty

    In any case, try to access the BIOS and set it to the default settings save changes and then try to reinstall Windows XP.
    You might also try another HARD drive, I know as your fist HDD recognized correctly but it s worth a try to test the 2nd HARD drive.

    The best way to manage old cameras that have compatibility problems is not to connect the camera to the computer, but rather to remove the memory card from the camera and use a desktop card reader to make transfers.

  • Satellite L850 - Win8.1 will not let me install the chipset drivers

    Hello

    After I've upgraded to pro 8.1 windows 64 bit 64-bit windows 8 (preinstalled), I thought that windows will not let me install the chipset drivers (downloaded from "toshiba site" for windows 8.1 pro 64-bit), but they stay with windows drivers installed for them.
    The Device Manager displays all installed and properly using. In addition, during the implementation was executed to install the chipset driver, he skipped most of them, to install a missing driver only (unfortunately have not kept any screen to show). I tried to install using the Device Manager (automatic search or manually navigating the computer files downloaded from the site), but it keeps saying that the drivers are up-to-date (drivers with the version from 2006, when later seen on the site are 2014). Any suggestion what to do?

    Model name: Satellite L850-1MK
    Version of the operating system: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro 6.3.9600
    CPU: Intel (r) Core i7-3630QM cpu @ 2.4 GHz

  • Windows 8 will not start after installing Windows 8.1

    I have laptop with Windows 8 on the drive (C :), I installed windows 8.1 on drive (d). When I want to choose Windows 8, it didn't start!

    There just restart and ask me to choose again.

    I tried "automatic startup repair" with the DVD but it did not work, I tried this command also:

    Bootrec /FixMbr

    bbootrec /fixboot

    bootrec /rebuildbcd

    Hi Michael,

    I would be grateful if you could help me with more information.

    1. What is the error message accurate/complete that you receive when you try to start Windows 8?
    2. Are you able to boot to Windows 8.1 without any problem?

    This problem can occur because of bad sectors on the hard disk. I suggest you run the disk check and check if you can start Windows 8.

    1. Press the Windows key + X, click on (Admin) command prompt.
    2. At the command prompt, type chkdsk /f and then press ENTER.
    3. Now, type chkdsk/r to repair.

    To run the check disk on C drive, try the following steps:

    1. Press the Windows key + E to open Windows Explorer.
    2. Click the drive you want to check (C :).
    3. Click Properties andcclick on the Tools tab.
    4. Click the control button user error checking.
    5. Follow the on-screen instructions.

    Warning of Chkdsk.

    Important: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost

    Let us know the status of the issue. If you need help, please after return. We will be happy to help you.

  • My Dell Studio 17 (with Vista Home Premium) will not let me install anything... ?

    Okay, so I recently bought a laptop... About two weeks ago now, I think that... It's a Dell Studio 17, and it runs on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. So far, I had a lot of problems to install programs on it. When I tried to install AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) it wouldn't download; I finally managed to do install via the start menu somehow...
    BUT now LENS won't let me sign... but that's another story! lol - the real thing that worries me is not able to install games. I just bought the Sims 3 and after inserting the disc, choose a language and a count of the wizard InstallShield, once I have access to the license agreement page and click on 'I agree' and click 'Next' an error message pops up saying something about impossible to install. He has a huge long error code and I don't know what that means. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the drive, so I went back to the store and exchanged it for a new one. When I got home and tried to install it again, it's the same thing. Then I tried to install another game that I have (Zoo Tycoon - Zookeeper edition) just to see if any game would work... It's the same thing; before he actually started to install an error message came. The first error message said something to have an invalid character in some way... ? ! (no idea...) Then an other error message pops up something else I didn't really...
    So, as you can see, there must be something wrong with my laptop. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE. I would appreciate advice...!
