Windows 7 don't recognize the existence of the second drive hard unformated. How can I format drive's system does not recognize that there is so I can format the drive to use for backup?

The two HDD are identical, WD750GB. Cannot find how to format a drive unreconized in help.
First HARD drive is SATA and using 64-bit format and want to use the same for the second.

Run Disk Manager , format the drive and it assign a drive letter:

1. press the Windows Logo + R , type diskmgmt.msc in the box, and then click OK .
2. right click on the drive and click format .
3 right-click the disk, and then click change drive letter and paths .

I don't know what you mean by "using the 64 bit format".

  • The system does not find that the specified path 0 error 80070003 - Win7 x

    Puzzle: Running Win7 backup in Windows 10. At the end of the backup, I get the following message:

    "Your last backup was not completely successful. Your unsaved files. "This leads to an error as follows:" the system cannot find the path specified error 0 x 80070003 - Win7. And this error message refers to a directory that had been reinstalled some time ago.

    The moved directory is very well in his new position, and was well backed up in this very backup. I figured somewhere there is still an old reference to the former location of the directory, but I can't find such a reference. Can't find it in the file Explorer and can't find it in the backup utility that allows you to select the files and folders to back up. File Explorer and backup are proof that this directory is now in a different place that has indeed been saved.

    If, as is the case, I can't find the above specifications in the expression "the path specified" (in other words, the reference wrong), how can I delete or change? How can I say Backup and Restore to ignore this directory ghost?

    (BTW: I ran chkdsk /f /r yesterday, as part of something else, and according to the chkdsk command, everything is fine, no problems at all.)

    Pending the entry I will delete this particular backup and run it again to see what happens. Thanks in advance for your suggestions as to what I could try it now.

    If the computer is on an Internet connection, you can reset the password on the Windows Password Reset site.  If the PC is not online right now if that won't work because it doesn't 'knows' the new password.

  • My reading and writing system does not recognize the DVD. For this CD. I don't know why.

    For a long time my system CD/DVD in my laptop Del Estudio 1537 worked perfect. But all of a sudden my computer does not recognize or read or burn DVDs. Can you help me fix this problem?

    Hello

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
    correctly.

    Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    Brand of the CD or DVD drive can also be the problem. Low quality (cheap brands) are always problematic.

    CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
    tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

    Notes on the troubleshooting and repair of readers of compact disks and CD-ROM Drives

    ===========================================

    This troubleshooting could not help if there is alignment and/or wear issues however it
    a shot.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART 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 coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and

  • Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop\music file. Error: (System does not find the specified path. (0 x 80070003))

    I had to uninstall iTunes a few months ago and successfully re-installed, but part of my music was missing.   At one point, following the instructions on a thread on the forums Apple or Microsoft, I saved my music library on the desktop. Since then, I do not have a library of music on the desktop file.  In my looooooong hours trying to fix things, I do not know if I deleted it or what.

    Hi serene,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    As indicated by the error, this problem appears, when these files/libraries that are saved automatically are not present on your computer. I suggest you to follow the steps below and check, if it can help solve the problem.

    • Create missing files that are listed in the error message.
    • Exclude files from the files to backup in the backup settings and then include these files in their original location. To exclude folders in other communities and to include these files in the original location, follow these steps:
      1. In Control Panel, open backup and restore.
      2. In the section back up , click change settings.
      3. In the dialog box Configure the backup , click Next.
      4. In the dialog box that you want to save , click Let me choose, and then click Next.
      5. Expand data files, library, expand additional locations, and then click to clear the check boxes folder AppData, Contactsand Research .
      6. Expand computers, expand the element of your system drive (for example, expand Local disk (c)), expand users, , and then click to select the checkboxes AppData, Contactsand Research if they exist.
      7. Click Next, and then click Save settings and exit.
      8. Backup and restore, click back up now to perform a new backup. The backup operation must complete without errors.

    If the problem persists, I suggest you follow the steps in the following article for troubleshooting backup problems.

    When I click on the + to open a new window I don't like the images that arise. I tried several times to change that through words: config; Browser.newtab.URL. I put in the site I want and it won't change. I tried to put in: blank and it don't work. I'm obviously something wrong - can you help please?

    Thank you

    If Firefox is ignorant preference browser.newtab.url, the usual culprit is an extension.

    You can open the page in Firefox Add-ons using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
      firefox.exe "about:addons"

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions. Do not forget that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox, and you can learn more about them by checking their reviews on the site of the Add - ons.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    You did changes to the computer before the show?

    These problems occur because the folders or libraries that you are trying to back up or restore include a reparse point. Analytical points are similar to shortcuts Windows or Unix symbolic links. A point of analysis can be used to point to a file that is moved temporarily to a different drive.

  • Recover the database by using cold backup

    Hi all

    One of the table is deleted accidentally by one of our DBA of PROD. We have a backup to cold on a day before.

    Now, we try to restore from the backup to cold. DB PROD is in archivelog and all the archives are in tact.

    The resulting table truncated today at 20:00. We can apply the database until 20:00 so that we can restore the table truncated using cold backup.

    Please find the steps we use to restore below.

    create controlfile

    from the db in State of Mt.

    recover the database;

    It will ask for last log archive when we try to get it back.
