Win Vista does not recognize Toshiba MQ01ABD050

I bought a Toshiba MQ01ABD050 and use it as a USB external drive, but unfortunately Windows Vista 32-bit, which is the operating system on my computer Toshiba A300, doesn't recognize.

I tried to format that lasts a few hours and then copied some things about it when the format is complete, but after the first cut the same problem remained - I still don't see my external hard drive, when I connect it to the laptop. Is it possible that I don't have the suitable driver for MQ01ABD050 and where can I find it?

I also tried to find it on the net but without success. There are also a few Windows attempts to find a driver after MQ01ABD050 USB connection, but without success also. Can anyone help me with any helpful suggestions, please.

Is it possible that I don't have the suitable driver for MQ01ABD050 and where can I find it?

I guess that you used an external USB to SATA adapter or frame.
In this case additional drivers are not needed because the USB port must recognize the plug ' n play HARD drive automatically.

I think you should try to connect this drive external HARD to another USB port and perhaps another computer just to check if the problem could be related to the USB port, USB-SATA adapter or HARD drive.

    Make sure that Windows is updated appropriately that there have been several USB updates.

    1 check that the driver letters for them, for a player, if the drive of the default drive letter is changed, what is happening.
    Mine was h: I added a device that took H: and the player stopped. So I put it back to H: and the other
    device to J: and everything worked again. If necessary start - type in the area of research-> disk management find top
    -Right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN

    Don't forget to remember the MP3 must be set to the PSG to sync with WMP, and meteorological service of Canada to copy and delete files
    and update the firmware.

    If no joy follow these steps:

    You may need a powered hub. (all the USB ports on your computer are not powered, often only 2)

    Try these:

    Make a Restore Point

    Control Panel - Device Manager - click in the empty area - VIEW - show hidden devices

    Here, your devices are the MP3 player.

    Now look everywhere EXCEPT the USB controllers for your devices (cannot be found) and if you find
    It RIGHT CLICK and UNINSTALL all.

    now go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers in the category, but the category itself.

    APPLY/OK

    RESET

    This refresh battery USB and hopefully it will allow the unit to install. (You may need a powered hub)

    Here is the similar procedure under XP, Vista is the same, except that we need clear specific devices, as appropriate.

  • Satellite C55T: Win 7 does not recognize the card, LAN and WLan

    I have a problem.

    I ve downgraded my Toshiba Satellite A5222 C55T for Windows 7 64 bit and it does not have many pilots.
    Windows does not recognize my network connection and it didn't install my wireless driver.

    Maybe I need a chipset driver, but I found no drivers for windows 7.

    Please help me!

    If Windows 7 has not recognized the LAN and WLan card, you have not installed the proper drivers.

    A5222 C55T satellite is the portable American model.
    The drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba help page we: [Satellite C55T-A5222 | http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=1200005866]

    Choose here the drivers / updates & filter by Windows 7 64 bit (left)

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • Windows Vista does not recognize my external hard drive, Eagle Consus AND-CS2PSU2-BK

    I have an HP Presario laptop running Windows Vista and it does not recognize my external hard drive, or my flash drives.

    I have an external hard drive Eagle Consus AND-CS2PSU2-BK.  It worked fine on my desktop, which works on XP.  I plug it to my computer laptop and nothing.

    When I plugged it in the first place, he says that he needed to download the drivers.  I clicked 'ok' to automatically download drivers and a few seconds later, he said that it successfully completed the driver download/install.

    I look under the drives in my computer and he's not here.

    I went to start, right click computer, left you click on Manage and double-clique then under storage disk management.  All I see are C drive and recovery disc (D).  No other drives displayed.

    I exitted who and set up the Control Panel, double click on Device Manager.  He said in the other topic peripheral USB to ATA/ATAPI bridge.  I don't know whether or not it is my external hard drive.  It indicates the Type of device: Other Devices and under device status it says: "the drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28).  This operation requires an interactive window station.  To reinstall the drivers for this device, click on reinstall the driver. »

    He asks if I want to reinstall the drivers, so I clicked that.  He couldn't find them / install them.

  • Vista does not recognize Avast!

    Hello all :) - for the last 3 months or more, Vista will not recognize that Avast! is running and antivirus protection. I've been running Avast on Vista early IE May 2007 and not had this or any other problem. I was hoping that it would fix itself, but no luck... I'm confused as Avast! tells me that everything is fine. Does anyone else have this problem? What can I do? I have Vista Home Premium, to date and legal lol. Thank you all very much. This is a wonderful forum!

    I find the rest of the article in support of Avast, try it and he could solve the problem:

    https://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=Knowledgebase&_A=viewarticle&KBArticleID=580

    I also believe that you could contact Avast assistance by phone, if you forgot the password for support or you can click on password to the website to reset your forgotten password.

  • Windows Vista does not recognize my DVD player. It is a Pioneer DVD - RW DVR - 110 d ATA Device.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click

    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
