Windows backup program does not work properly, can not format blank media.

Successfully, I formatted the drive using autoplay.  However, when I try to run the backup program on the formatted drive, I get a prompt to format the disc again after a few minutes, I get message that format could not be completed.  Is it possible that the window backup program is corrupted?  If so, how should I do?

I had these problems and many others using DVDs to make the backup of files.

Please save you time sitting in front of the computer, the power to the machine with the DVD and the aggravation of not working do not after all.
Invest in an external hard drive for backup of files. It is the most effective way.
These days, a 1 TB external hard drive can be had for less than $100. It's money well spent.

  • Carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s does not read blank media - need new firmware

    Hey I have a laptop Equium only around the age of 4 months.
    Had nothing but problems with the CARPET * A DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA Device drive.
    I need to know where I can get the update of the firmware.

    Firmware for it, that she will not read blank media.

    I agree with master... I don't know what kind of problems you have, but if the player doesn't work properly, it must be replaced. The warranty is certainly valid and the nearest authorized can help you with it.

    Maybe you made a mistake. Take your laptop to the nearest service and show them what you mean exactly. Here, we can only speculate what may be your problem.

  • The Windows Setup program does not open. Stuck with black screen.

    Hi all

    I'm trying to install windows 7 from an iso file using Bootcamp assistant, Version 6.0.1 but unfortunately just windows installer does not open so I'm stuck with this black screen. I left my sit MacBookPro autour with this black screen during more than half an hour and after awhile, it gets really hot so I interrupted the "process."

    I have reset the NVRAM (command + alt + p + r) which did nothing.

    I followed the instructions of bootcamp. I downloaded the correct drivers for my model of mac pro book, I created a bootable and partitioned my drive.

    The forum has a lot of "black screen problems" but none of their solutions worked for me.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

    1. leave BCA creates the installer from USB, but not to partition your drive.

    2. download the correct drivers to install Windows 7 and previous versions on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple Support and replace $WinPEDriver$, AutoUnattend.xml, and the entire folder on the drive flash USB2 Bootcamp.

    3. run BCA, connect the USB cable and click only the Windows Installer and test if the Setup program starts.

    Since I restored my system, when I try to open excel or word, I get a windows install. Even after installing windows install 4.5. How can I get excel and word to work?

    Hello

    1. could you give us the exact error message?
    2. do you get this error only when you use Excel?

    Method 1.
    I recommend you to reregister the Installer engine.
    Here's how:
    a. Click Start, click Accessories and then click command prompt.
    b. at the command prompt, type the following and press ENTER after each line:
     
    MSIExec /Unregister
     
    MSIExec/regserver


    Method 2.

    It seems that there is a background app that launches the installer of Windows. We can perform a boot minimum troubleshooting to find the same thing. You need to perform a clean boot to find the program that is causing and then disable or remove.

  • The Windows Setup program does not start

    I'm trying to install 10 windows using boot camp. I'm on a macbook pro retina early 2015 on OSX 10.11.2

    I opened the boot camp assistant and it brings me to a screen to select the ISO and partition my drive.

    After I choose how I want to partition my drive, it brings me to a screen where it downloads windows supported, copies of windows install files and restarts.

    At this point, I expect 10 to start windows installer, however it brings me right to the normal sequence of boot OSX. I tried now option when it is booting, but I only see the OSX disk to start. Then, I go to bootcamp again and it gives me the ability to delete my bootcamp partition. I checked in disk utility, and it seems that the drive is partitioned in fact, but I can't get the windows installer to run and install windows on the new partition.

    I was wondering if anyone had questions similar to this.

    Thank you!

  • WD external drive is not detected by the Windows backup program

    Original title: with a WD external drive backup program

    I have a WD My Book Essential 320 GB external drive. The Windows backup program does not recognize the drive... The drive IS recognized on my computer and I can access and transfer and copy and paste to it without problem. It's just the backup program which does not. No error message or anything. Only, it does not recognize the drive when I get to the destination area. I tried to update the drivers. The WD support site has Backup downloads for OTHER external drives, but not this one. Their Web site says to contact Microsoft support. Any suggestions?

    The Magentic program does not work with newer versions of windows

    Hello danielbrauer,

    The magnetic site says the requirements are for Windows XP or higher. However, it is not on the Windows Vista or the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.

    You can try the following to see if it will help with compatibility. If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
    Use the following steps:
    (1) right click on the program
    2) click Properties
    3) click on the Compatibility tab
    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If this does not help, you can contact the magnet to see if they have an updated version.
