• Windows 7 does not recognize the USB 32 GB

  I have a Sandisk Cruzer 32 GB USB stick key, as I would like to transfer a single file of 9 GB between my two laptops.

  The memory stick appears and works very well on a laptop (Acer) - while working.  However it does not appear on my other laptop (Compaq) after plugging him.  Laptop computers are Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, both use the NTFS system and the memory stick was formatted in this way also.

  I used the disk on the Compaq Management and (after a while) the memory stick appears.  In order to avoid any conflict between the drive letters, I have re-assigned to the M: drive and that seemed to work.  However, it does not ALWAYS appear in the Windows Explorer, so I can't transfer any files to it!

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Thank you.

  Hello Stephen,

  When looking for hard drives, USB flash drives or CDs and readers of DVD using Windows Explorer, you may notice that some readers are not in Windows Explorer or the drive may disappear after a short period, or when Windows resumes or Hibernation. This may be caused by the following:

  • Your player does not have a drive letter assigned in disk management
  • The player can be disabled or offline
  • Your USB driver is maybe corrupted
  • Damaged registry keys may be the cause of problems with the connection to your CD-ROM or DVD drive
  1. When you connect other USB devices on the computer, they work well?
  2. What is the status of the Sandisk Cruzer 32 GB USB drive in the Device Manager?
  3. You have Kies installed on the computer?

  Reference:

  Cruzer flash NOT detected by Windows PC drive

• My imac does not recognize my new western digital hard drive internal that I just installed.

  I created a bootable usb key with yosemite on this and I am trying to format the new HDD, but all options are grey and doesn't let me do anything. It is also said he has 0 KB and the hard drive is 2 TB. Ran a few commands on the terminal, I found online, and it said me that I have a usb key where I yosemite. Any ideas?

  Using disk utility you need to divide the hard drive by using the GUID partition scheme, and then Mac OS Extended journaled. If the disc is not recognized at all, you've probably done something wrong, have a bad SATA cable or a new defective hard disk.

• Vista Home Premium does not recognize a new 500 GB HARD drive.

  I installed a WD 500 GB drive in my Emachines computer.   He appears in "Device Manager" who says it works correctly, but the OS not the poster not in 'My Computer'.  Is there a limit on the size of the disk in Vista?

  Have you partitioned/formatted it?

  If not, right click on computer > manage > storage > disk management.

  Now right click on the graph for the reader, and select new simple volume. Allocate the amount of space you want to use it, i.e. all or certain of them so that you can have more than one partition on the disk. Now do a right click and format it. Repeat the new simple volume if you decided to make several partitions.

• Install Windows 8 does not recognize the system drive

  I built a new machine (chart below). Since this is a new machine and not an upgrade, I bought Win 8 Pro 64 bit OEM to do a clean install. The SSD is my system disk that Windows 8 will be installed. Four data drives are mirrored, two for the other two. Construction went perfectly. The BIOS recognizes all six disks: 1 SSD, 4 HDD, 1 DVD.

  Insert and boot the disk of Windows 8. Accept the EULA, enter the product key. Arriving at the page "Where do you want to install Windows?", only four hard disks are listed. The SSD (installation to go) is not found by Win 8. ??? I tried to change ports SATA, cables, power supply - no difference. For each new change of hardware, the BIOS still sees everything. This isn't a hardware problem.

  The question remains: why the installation of Windows 8 does not recognize the SSD drive. All five disks are on AHCI. I'm not in RAID.

  I spoke with crucial technical support of all (manufacturer of the SSD). They were also surprised that the drive does not appear in the list.

  Does anyone have a solution? I spent all the money on hardware, as well as the new version of Windows and I cannot install it.

  This is the real kick in the teeth: Microsoft won't support me. The OEM of Windows 8 version is the same as manufacturers, such as Dell or HP. Support told me I had the support of the manufacturer. HA! I am the manufacturer. Either that or upgrade from an earlier version of Windows. This means that any that a new construction machine will get ZERO assumption of Microsoft. All just great.

  Thank you in advance for any assistance.

  Windows 8 Pro 64-bit (full version) - OEM
  Intel Core i5 - 3570K
  Card mother GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD5H
  Crucial Ballistix 2 x 8 GB DDR3 1600
  Crucial M4 2.5 "128 GB SSD (system disk)
  WD Green WD30EZRX x 4 (data readers) 3 TB drive
  Rosewill Challenger-U3 ATX Mid Tower Case
  SeaSonic M12II 620W 620 Bronze PSU
  ASUS DVD writer

  The DSS must be LOW LEVEL FORMATE.

  Once, there may be no other [HDDs] not connected to the SATA ports.

  Install Windows 8 Pro now.

  [Edit] Can someone please mark this as answered? I can't because I posted the question. Thank you.

• DreamColor LP2480zx does not recognize the USB for calibration

  Hello

  I have a DreamColor LP2480zx, which does not recognize the USB connection to the computer during calibration.  I have my eye HP connected through this monitor, so I know the connection and the cable is good and mouse, keyboard.  My setup is like this:

  Reference Dell 690 running 64 bit + Windows XP

  DreamColor LP2480zx

  Apple Cinema Display 23 "

  I bought the DreamColor used, and in all other respects, it seems to work very well.  The original owner didn't have it calibrated within a certain time, but said that having had no problem with the previous calibration.  I installed the last APS (version 2.0) and updated to the latest firmware.  These updates produces no change in recognition USB problem.

  The interesting thing is, I was able to calibrate the Apple Cinema Display, using the same configuration of connection (mouse, keyboard, and HP eye connected to the computer via the LP2480zx) APS was able to see the USB connection and this very well calibrated monitor.

  I had trouble with this problem for a few days.  I've looked around quite a bit online and found a few others who have this same problem, but I did not yet find someone who can point out a solution.  If anyone has had this same problem, or has heard of results that correct it, please let me know, because it's very frustrating.

  Thanks for any help

  Clay

  An update to my previous post, I realized a work around for this problem.

  Apparently, this problem has to do with the Dreamcolor screen and/or software APS do not like working with 64 bit systems.  I'm not saying that it is always the case, but I saw the other posts on this problem on 64-bit systems, and I spoke with two other people personally who told me that they also had the same problem, try to calibrate its Dreamcolor monitor when it was attached to a 64-bit system.  HP does not seem to be concerned about this problem, because they do not even recognize its existence, but since I'm far from being the first to report this problem, he's obviously not a one-time problem.

  My solution was this: I had connect the monitor to a regular running XP 32 bit system.  After I did, I could re - calibrate the monitor without the problem of USB connection.  This isn't a very good solution because not everyone has access to several machines, running different operating systems.  But it's a work around, and it worked for me.

  Hope this helps other people who have this same problem with their Dreamcolor monitors hooked to their 64-bit systems.

  Clay

  PS- I posted this as resolved, only because I was able to calibrate my monitor.  It's not really solved the problem, but it gets the monitor working again.  Maybe HP will address this problem in the future, but I'm not holding my breath.

• Satellite A200-1AE does not recognize the USB 2.0 flash drive

  I have a problem because my satellite A200-1AE with Microsoft Vista does not recognize the USB 2.0 flash drive. He asks me a program/software!
  The same USB works without problem on other computers with vista!

  Someone knows what to do?

  Hello

  First of all, you must disconnect all USB devices and must remove the USB ports and controllers in the Device Manager.
  After this procedure, you must restart the laptop. After a new restart the Vista operating system should recognize the USB ports and should reinstall USB drivers again.

  Then you must update the Vista to the State! All fixes and patches must be installed. Please note that you will have to visit the MS Update site for all patches

  Notes; MS has released a beta of Vista SP1. I installed it on my laptop and it has solved several problems.

  Best regards
