• error message when you try to install win 7 on vostro v131

  Hello

  I bought and installed an SSD in my Dell Vostro v131 and when I tried to install windows 7 using a USB key, I get the following message and cannot continue with the installation.

  A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing.  If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.  Note: If the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive, you can remove this step

  I created the bootable usb key by following these instructions:

  1. in Windows Vista or Windows 7, open a command prompt and run the following commands one by one:

  (a) Diskpart

  (b) the list disk

  You can identify your USB by its size. For example, there is disk 1.

  (c) select disk 1

  Select your USB drive.

  (d) clean

  Erase it.

  (e) create primary partition

  (f) select partition 1

  (g) active

  Mark this partition as a boot partition active. This will allow this bootable USB key.

  (h) format fs = ntfs quick

  2. after formatting the Flash DRIVE, copy all the files in the DVD on USB drive

  I copied the contents of the DVD of the OS that came with the v131 when I bought it.

  Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1

  I installed Win 7 on my desktop the same procedure and I have never seen this message before...

  Anyone can shed some light on this problem?

  Thanks in advance!

  I saw a post elsewhere that this problem is due to the use of the USB 3.0 port during installation of operating system with a flash drive.

  I plugged the USB in the por USB 2.0 and that solved the problem.

  Hope this helps your problem!

• What SSD in Vostro V131?

  Hello

  just ordered a Vostro V131 via the Dutch website of Dell. Data sheet: i5-2530, 4 gig of RAM, 128 GB SSD. My question: what type/brand of SSD is used? Cannot find anything on the Dell site. My guess is that it is a Samsung PM810. Can anyone confirm that?

  Cheers!

  Hello

  just my Vostro reveived. To my satisfaction, it contains the Samsung PM830 - 6gbps SSD Samsung launched a few months ago. I'm a happy camper!

• When I click on the + to open a new window I don't like the images that arise. I tried to change that in all: config; Browser.newtab.URL, but it will not

  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?

• Window of "research/fliter' for the address book stop working

  Window of "research/fliter' for the address book worked well until I tried today, v 31.6.0. (win 7) Just updated to 31.7.0 and still no search results. Typing in characters do not appear possible matches (name/email selected option). However, CTRL + SHIFT + F works very well in the address book search. How can I get the search/filter window to work as he did? Thank you.

• Window is too big for the screen, do not set by f11 or alt/space

  When enlarged, the view is too big to get the edges to move smaller. When I try to drag the top bar, it jumps to the small view rather than allowing me to reposition the window. The reduced view is only about 2 x 4 inches. Of course, I can make this larger point of view, but then I lose the choice of two sizes.

  There is no problem with changing the size of the fonts, etc, just the size of the main view. The problem is that in Firefox, not other programs.

  I tried the Firefox reset procedure, but that didn't help either.

  Oh, wait. You cannot resize a window enlarged, so that it runs from edge to edge without the sizing handles is normal Windows. You need only the above procedure, if the window is so large that it blocks the taskbar or the monitor runs away.

• Firefox window blocks everything else on the computer screen

  for some reason, the FF window now blocks EVERYTHING else on my computer screen. for example, if I open a PDF file, it opens BEHIND the screen of FireFox. normally the PDF file would be open, and in the new window on my screen, hide at least a portion of the FireFox window. no more. If the FireFox window is open, it blocks everything on my screen. even when I click on these glazed elements, FireFox remains visible and above them. It is a serious problem, because it basically means that I have to close my browser when doing anything with other applications on my computer screen. which, of course, is not realistic and will force me to start using another browser.

  Eagle supreme said

  reinstall your browser. but still why is this a problem, you can open them in the toolbar at the bottom of the scree with a single click.

  No, for some time nothing worked. If FF was open, the thing any blocked FF window on the computer screen. you could click on something else and he would still be blocked by the FF window.

  but I went to the control panel and set the window again and properties file to "default" and everything back to normal.

• I am trying to add my Linux netbook to my sync account, but both my windows computers will not display the "Add Device" button in one of the sync management screens

  I'm trying a new version of Linux on a net book I use to play with non windows OS. In the process of setting up the new OS install I wanted to make my Firefox account set up so that I didn't have to spend a lot of time working on something. I'm no stranger to sync of browser and several of my computers and tablets with a number of different OS tied to the account with little difficulty in including the Firefox of the previous generation of Linux that has been on the net accountant. The problem is now that on both my computers in the main, a windows 7 and a desktop tablet windows 8.1, both running the latest Firefox, I am unable to find the 'Add a device' button in the synchronization of the management screens. This includes browsers built in display options as well as the Firefox manage account page. The first gives me options to disconnect the account, go to the maintenance screen, several checkboxes that you can synchronize to the device name. The management, after the login screen, don't give me options for the disconnect, change password and delete the account. Any help to understand why the add device button seems to be missing from these two devices would be greatly appreciated.

  Please check the version of your Installation of Firefox. (can be found by clicking on the main menu, or by clicking or hovering the cursor over the help button, and then click about firefox in the submenu). According to since how long you configured synchronization you can still use the old version of sync. Firefox 29 has introduced a new (and I would add a lot less tedious) version of sync. See this Mozilla support article for more information on the upgrade of your sync to the new version.

• I'm a window that has the windows displayed in yahoo mail and hadou and I can click on one of the images of a window and it will restore the window how?

  I am in yahoo mail and there is a window that has the windows displayed and I can click on one of the images of a window and it will restore the window how to access this window (size full one who possesses a collection of previous windows in a complete graph/no format)?
  The window that I write the topic is a collection of previous windows images in a smaller size.

  Firefox has a feature to view all your open tabs in one or more groups of tabs. You can show and hide this screen by pressing Ctrl + Shift + e. Is this the one you see, or something different?

  If you ended up with more than a group of tabs and you want to consolidate them, you can drag the thumbnail images all in one group.

  More information: use tab groups to organize a large number of tabs.

• I have 28 of Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 running on a Windows XP, I can "desensivise" the copy mode?

  I have 28 Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 running on Windows XP
  I'm compiling a list of www.thegazette.co.uk
  Sometimes the Explorer is slow, very slow, take up to five minutes to move from one page to another, but I can copy and paste paragraphs of her.
  Firefox is fast but splits a paragraph into small sections (sometimes a letter) and each of them as simple features pasta in Notebook or Word. I am so in five minutes a page after I reassembled things.
  My current compromise is looking in Firefox, then load the address of the page in Explorer solutions for the treatment of the paragraph.
  I can "desensivise" the method of copy of Firefox?

  I have the same problem when I try to copy the text, but all copies fine if I download the PDF file and open it with Adobe Acrobat/Adobe Reader. Try this if none of the cor - el or jscher2000 PDF viewers proposed work.

  To do this there is a button at the top of the image that the document is in (it looks like a sheet of paper with an arrow above). Click here and you will be prompted to open the PDF file or save it. You can then choose to open it with Adobe Acrobat/Reader or save it in your file downloads, in which case you can open it by clicking the download button (the arrow at the top right of the default browser window) and select it from the menu. If you don't have Adobe Acrobat or Adobe reader, you can download Adobe Reader here.

• Shows of 64bits 21.0 Firefox Windows 8 sometimes suspended in the Task Manager

  I have a laptop of 64-bit windows with Firefox 21.0 8. In the night I turn my computer off (not restart), I have fastboot or anything and when I login I run firefox and nothing happens. I can open Task Manager and find firefox and it says that it is using 178 k or an infinitely small number of memory, then state instead of saying 'running', he said 'suspended '.
  I then finish that firefox and start a new one, and it works fine.
  Why it does not the first time that I start it well?

  • Update * - see the screenshots -

  Screenshots:
  http://oi39.tinypic.com/33comrn.jpg this is what happens when I first try to start firefox after turning on my laptop.

  http://oi43.tinypic.com/kn9dc.jpg this is what happens when I close Firefox which does not at the screenshot 1.

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  Please report back to see if this helped you!

• Why do I get restore window when opening firefox since the update

  Why do I get restore window when opening firefox since the update. I don't want to restore but it appears every time instead of my homepage as shown

  A likely cause is that you first close all Firefox Windows and then close the Firefox application.

  Some noted that closing of Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is always open works for them.
