• Windows Vista will not read external drives

  I had an external hard drive connected to my computer earlier today. All of a sudden, my computer froze and started to make noises beeps, then I stopped and released my external drive.  Now, whenever I plug a drive it tells me that I have to reformat. However when I try to reformat the drive, he told me that the format could not be completed. It allows me to format NTFS, but that does nothing for me. I need to format in FAT or FAT32, but it won't let me. I even reformatted my drive to FAT32 from another computer, but when I plug in Vista it still says it needs to be formatted.  I got lost. How can I get Vista to re-read my external drives?

• Windows Vista will not see Seagate 320 internal drive to format

  I bought a 320GB Seagate (7200 RPM) opportunity and I'm trying to install Vista on it. The computer BIOS sees the drive, but loading Vista it does not show the HD as an external drive and ask drivers for it. The disk has been previously formatted for Mac.

  Try to use SeaTools for Windows.  See also: Seagate Installation Assistance

  Please note that the hard drive needs to be internally mounted inside the computer because Windows Vista will not install on an external hard drive.

  Hey Brian39

  If you change the motherboard that you normally have to reinstall vista

  your hard drive if you ever reinstalled vista contains the drivers for the old motherboard etc.

  and if vista is pre-installed you can not put the motherboard unless you do so in collaboration with the computer manufacturer

  If a retail license, you can change the motherboard

  but you will normally always reinstall vista for reasons

• Windows Vista will not download

  Help. My HP G50 will start but the Windows Vista will not download. I pressed the keys F 10 and 11 F. The memory is good. I backed up my files using the F 11 Save function. I tried to go back to an earlier date using System Restore, no results. Can reset the computer by default, there is work in the F 11 key and then recover my files. Do I need a recovery disk?

  Thanks for the reply. I made the. Backup of files Wizard. At the end she asks 'Please insert the USB key' - I suppose to download files on an external drive. Well I bought an external drive and connect it to the USB port, nothing happens. He said only: "no available drive. What should I do now. I did all the steps, according to HP said on their site of troubleshooting online and this is the last step. I will not buy an HP again. A friend recommends a Sony.

• Windows XP will not read sdhc memory

  How is my windows xp it will not read sdhc memory?

  How my windows xp read the sdhc memory card?

  See the following article:

  (934428) hotfix for Windows XP that
  Adds support for SDHC cards that have
  a capacity of more than 4 GB
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/934428

  If the hotfix does not fix the problem... it is possible that your
  media player is not compatible with the SDHC technology.
  Best perhaps is to buy an external drive that is SDHC
  compatible or download to the device using a USB cable.

• my windows vista will not update or accept any download error code 800700cb

  Hello

  (1) what is the exact full error message?

  (2) is the specific question of an update?

  (3) remember you to make changes to the computer before the show?

  You can try the following methods and check the status of the issue.

  Method 1:

  Troubleshoot problems with installing updates.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-problems-with-installing-updates

  Method 2:

  Disable your security software installed on the computer and try to install the updates.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

  NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

• Windows Vista will not start and cannot recover

  I have a desktop PC HP Compaq Presario, which has about 2 years. The problem started when Windows Vista was not able to start. It would load up on the "COMPAQ" screen and then it would just go to a slider black white screen with a flashing white light on the top left. Now that I've seen a lot of discussions with this similar problem, but it seems that people would rather not reformat in order to lose any important data. But in my situation, I have some important data on my computer so reformatting would be fine, except...

  -Recovery system won't work. I insert the 1 system recovery disk, all files loading correctly, it allows me to choose if I want to reset the computer to factory settings, I click Yes and it finishes the reformatting step. But then the problem comes when I insert disc 2, original content relocation step. It fills up to 10-16% and then I get a blue screen of death STOP: 0 x 00008086. I tried SEVERAL times and the same thing happens.

  -The next thing I tried to do is to fix the computer via a copy burned Windows Startup Repair. Loads everything up, I spent the page where I choose my language, currency, etc. The problem comes when I get to the System Recovery Options. There is no listed BONES and a box appears and says "Searching for Windows installations", and then it stalls just on this pop up. This problem is quite recent, because before there is no pop up and there is simply no OS listed, so I still could not repair or restore in any case.

  -Before, when I was able to go into the advanced options on the Startup Repair disk (when he was not of "searching for Windows installations" pop up to stall on), I'd go to the command prompt in attempt to chkdsk/r C:. All bad sectors or groups or something else would be fixed, and then he would hold to step 5 of 5 when checking free space.

  -In addition, I tried to make a diagnosis of memory via the Startup Repair tool. That's what I get:

  File: \boot\memtest.exe

  Status: 0xc000000f

  Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt

  
  

  Furthermore, I cleaned my computer, it is now almost completely free of dust. In addition, I can't get into the BIOS, I can't get into safe mode, and now I can't have in the command line

  Hello

  If you are unable to enter the BIOS and all the other problems, you have hardware problems
  and need the help of a real store of the computer (no leeks and glances at a Best Buy or any other
  Department stores) or Support of HP/Compaq.

• Why Ms service pack 2 for windows vista will not activate the sd card reader work?

  I tried to read a card to 8 GB using my laptop built in card reader, I found a solution for vista o/s before sp 1 and 2.  Certainly, there is a fix for sp2 computers now?

  Checked on the net and a lot of people may not read their 4 Gb + SD card, especially on laptops.  My implementation, laptop of Acer 9423wsmi, OS Vista, with Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Cardbus Controller.  I just downloaded and installed sp43509 driver from the site Web of Hewlett Packard and Lo, now I can read my 8 GB card!

• Windows Vista will not synchronize with internet time server

  I am running Windows Vista Business SP2 and Norton Internet Security on a Lenovo T61.  All updates for Windows, Norton and Lenovo have been applied.  When I try to synchronize with a time server Internet, I get the error message ' year error occurred while synchronizing with time.windows.com "I tried each of the other servers listed time and still get the same error message.  I spent reviewing the configuration of the firewall in time of Norton Internet Security and S32 and port 123 are enabled.  I tried to synchronize with the two Norton Internet Security Firewall on and outside, with the same results. I have internet google and looked for a solution of Microsoft.  After reading all the posts relating, I tried the following:

  running administrative invite

  net stop w32time

  w32tm /unregister

  w32rm /register

  net start w32time

  Each performed positively.

  This has not solved the problem.  I then ran:

  w32tm/config /update

  This is performed in a positive way.

  This has not solved the problem. I then ran:

  w32tm/Resync /rediscover

  He responded with "the computer did not resync because no time data was available"

  I then ran:

  w32tm/query/status

  He responded with "last successful synchronization time: not specified.

  The local Group Policy Editor reads for providers of Service/Computer Configuration/Windows Administrative Templates/time/system time

  Configure Windows NTP Client not configured

  Enable Windows NTP Client not configured

  Enable Windows NTP server not configured

  In summary, it seems that my computer has never synchronized with an Internet server time.

  If you need additional information, please provide specific instructions on how to get it and I will provide.

  From time to time, I checked to see if I resync of internet time.

  Out of the Blues started windows resynchronize.

  The only change I can think is that AT & T reset head of communications AT & T defaults shortly before he started work.  This tends to confirm my opinion that it was a problem of communication.
