WIN8 usb3 problem/UX31a/iomega ego

Hello
I have an Asus UX31a supplied with Windows 7. After that installation of Windows 8 my external drive, iomega ego 1 TB usb3, allows only reading, I can not write anything on the disc. I wonder how to solve this problem.
The drive worked perfectly on this laptop with Windows 7 and works very well in other laptops with Windows 7 or Windows 8. Other discs, I've tried, usb2 and usb3, work well on my ux31a from asus with Windows 8.

Kind regards

Jorge Cunha

I have an easy solution that will have to do for now.

I had Windows 8 PRO and Iomega eGo worked well, as soon as I put it in my new laptop, it didn't.
Got an error saying disk was corrupt.
Solution was to use an extension cable UBS 2.0 in order to avoid the 3.0 to my new laptop USB port and it worked!

  • Rescue and recovery lists no backup on USB Iomega eGO drive

    Hello

    I have been using an Iomega eGO external backups USB drive.

    I was able to identify and remove (if necessary) backups in Windows 7 and rescue & recovery running, but I can't get the list of backups at the start of a recovery in rescue & recovery DVD.

    Basically I replaces unencrypted with a SSD hard drive that supports encryption.

    The goal was to use a full backup immediately before removing the HARD drive to restore the complete system.

    At the start of the recovery DVDs, recovery utility & rescue lists not all backups, even when the check box for the list of backups on other systems is checked.

    It makes no difference if the selection of THE places or USB external drive.

    Any ideas?

    Backups are not much good if you can't get back them.

    If my old drive did not then I would be in a worse state than this. I can't say I'm impressed.

    Well, I've finally sorted this issue.

    I tried to create a new recovery disk.

    I even tried the recovery time in Windows and see what backups it detected. Yet once, I drew a blank.

    The question was this:

    On my W510 at least, none of the USB3.0 ports are recognized by Lenovo rescue and recovery software when you select the USB storage device. Once connected to a single USB 2.0 port the USB eGo has been recognized and listed backups.

    Unfortunately, this means a minimum of 6 hours to restore from a full backup!

  • Windows 7 - hard drive from Iomega EGO 2.0 Ext. - recognized but does not work

    Just got a new laptop Gateway with Windows 7, and I'm having a hard time getting my external drive running.  It is an Iomega Ego 1 TB USB 2.0 drive, which is on the list of compatible hardware.  I don't see the drive under 'Computer', however, if I go to "Computer management" and then under "Disk management" I can see the player identified as disk 1.  If I try to do a right click on the drive to set the drive letter and path I get an error saying "the operation failed to complete because the disk management console view is not updated.  Refresh the view by using the refresh task.  "If the problem persists close the disk management console, then restart disk management or restart the computer.  I have done this several times and changed the USB port and cable tension... all out and started... all without any positive result.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Partner Toshiba Stor.e 2.5 "power USB3 problems

    I had the partner Toshiba Stor.e 2.5 "external hard drive USB3 for about 5 months and couldn't be happier... until tonight.

    I have it plugged into my laptop Satellite Pro and nothing happened. It seems that the fault is where the cable connects to the device. If I pull the cable up the light blue lights and voltage of my hard drive, when I let go the power ceases.

    It seems that the connection of the device is quite fragile and I can move it up and down easily.
    I took care of the product and have not been subjected to undue constraints so I'm not very happy.

    Has anyone else had this kind of problem?
    Is this a design flaw or a single random problem?

    Can it be fixed?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    You you connected this external USB HDD two USB ports on your laptop?
    I think that you must use a USB cable to Y that allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB ports, because this HARD drive needs 900mA.

    The common standard USB 2.0 port (I guess that your laptop supports only USB 2.0) provides 500mA and usually is not enough for the USB 3.0 HARD drive.

    Another solution could be the use of the USB hub using an external power supply.

    I am informed of these drivers by HP and they said to make sure you that you are installing the Intel driver first, then the AMD driver.  I had a support call connected with HP since may, so it's good to finally get a fix, not a workaround solution.

    Worked for me on a machine to win 8.

    Fujitsu Windows 7 laptop (all USB2)

    used the full software and installed a printer HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a Series as a network printer.

    The printer installed fine and don't have USB connection

    All the software and scanning twain installed, so I was able to scan the copy etc.

    I could browse and choose my PC from the front panel of the printer

    However, it was Tuesday confirmed to a friend that their printer would work on a new laptop - bought the laptop

    Fujitsu - but more recent model with 3 USB ports

    I have install and then used the same FULL configured driver to be installed (V14)

    selected as a network printer and then, during the installation, I get an error hardware error USB and USB drivers

    All the USB works, that I've used - BUT the printer is networked and no USB used

    tried to download the driver and install it-exactly the same question

    SO I configure using the devices and printers 'add printer' network and installed

    I can print OK

    BUT no analysis facilities

    and on the façade - cannot see the new PC to scan to

    The only real difference, is that this PC has USB3 and only mine has USB2

    It's a problem because Drivet package not has not been updated for USB3 - y at - it a patch?

    Thanks for any help / advice

    Hi etaf,.

    I guess the short answer is: Yes, the problem with the software and the 3.0 Port.

    The long answer with a possible work around is as follows: first of all, the software looks for minimum requirements. Because the software is older, he doesn't know what a 3.0 port. You are right when you say that it should work since you do not use the USB and use wireless instead, but this is not the case.

    There is something we can try, but I can't guarantee it will work. I thought first we could connect a USB cable and run the software made to force the software to see the USB port, but then the software wouldn't even get far enough because you can't plug the cable to the most later in the installation.

    My second thought and most promising suggestion is to connect the USB cable (although we do normally not until the software prompts us to) and use the installation wizard HP Print to get the insteaad of software to use the CD or download from the printer driver page. Still, I can't say with certainty that it works, but I don't see why it would not be worth a try.

    If it works, and we get the software installed you can convert the USB connection to a wireless connection using the software. Fingers crossed! Download and run the with the following link. Printer HP install wizard for Windows

    If this does not work, or you don't want to bother with it (not worth trying), I might consider getting a new model of the printer. You can even call HP. They might be able to offer a discount on a newer model. If you are in the Canada, U.S. dial 800-474-6836 or you can Contact HP worldwide.

  • Iomega Portable hard drive now does not appear under "Devices" after accidentally deleted USB cable. USB

    My Iomega eGo Portable hard drive was connected by USB on my Macbook Pro OSX 10.9.5 cable and I was transferring my iPhoto folder.  Unfortunately, the cable dropped and I got a message on my laptop hard drive had not ejected correctly.   I reconnected it the cable, but now, it does not appear under devices in the search page.  I also checked the disc utilities and it isn't here either.  I tried to connect the hard drive of my iMac, but it does not appear in the devices out there either.

  • Weird problem on Satellite L855

    Hey all

    I use a laptop Toshiba Satellite L855 Win 8 running, all was working fine until last night, after using it for about a half hour I went to stop, but instead it seems to go to sleep as the two lights at the front were still on, one whose power, blinking once I closed the lid which suggests a mode 'sleep'.

    Now, here's the use strange bit, no key or mouse would be to bring back to life, I was a blank screen with the cursor, so after trying everything I could, I had to remove the battery, I started the boot and it worked but, on startup Toshiba it says configuration of the system, followed by the usual blue screen of windows update to search which includes the windows configuration of said, after which he went into win8 no problem!

    It was about two days ago and since then, everything seems to work fine, but I was wondering what could caused from? any ideas anyone?

    > it was about two days ago and since then, everything seems to work fine, but I was wondering what could caused from? any ideas anyone?

    The cursor blinking in the upper left corner is especially a sign of drive problems HARD or memory.
    In my case the blinking cursor appeared because of the faulty partition of HARD drive and this fact, the laptop could not start the Windows System.

    But in your case, it seems that system works well, so we can only speculate about the real reasons
