  • Windows does not recognize the USB flash drive

    Hello
    My USB does not work when I plug. It seems that Windows recognizes the device because it is found in the Solution Explorer window, but if I want to create a folder or a file on the USB key I have the following message:
    "Cannot find this article.
    It is no longer in < %3="" null :="" optext=""> . Check the location of the components and try again. " < br=""> also the files that are copied to the USB flash drive are not visible in Explorer and it looks like the drive is empty.

    I want to emphasize that the same (Kingston) USB flash drive works perfectly under Windows XP operating system on another computer so it may not be a problem with the device. The same problem also appears when you use a different USB (another manufacturer).

    Thank you!

    Hey, 101 a.

    , I just posted a fix I found for my USB flash/go to work again.  It was a very simple solution, too.

    I unplugged all USB devices first, then tried my USB jump drive again.  IT WORKED! I've narrowed the problem to the new printer that I use.  It's a Mono Dell Laser MFP 1125.  Whenever it is plugged into a USB port, my USB doesn't work.  All other devices work, but not the USB is the printer is connected

    I don't know what done to block the flash/USB key, but unplug printer allows the jump command to work again.  I will contact Dell on what did the printer driver to block the flash player.  Just an info on the fix I found.

  • External drives, USB, USB Flash Drives, "driver software device is not installed. Problem Acer and Windows 7

    Not sure one I'm more frustrated with.  Acer or Microsoft

    Try to get decent customer service out either seems so difficult.

    OK, it's a pretty common problem.  I've seen this around other forums and each finger to Microsoft points.

    Flash USB, Jump Drives thumb drives, Memory Sticks, players, whatever they are called, they do not work on my Acer laptop.  Everything works still perfectly on my Vista PC and my work XP.  So they are not damaged.  Also an external Freecom USB 1 TB drive.  Does not work on Windows 7.

    I have an Acer 5338 (less than one year) which unfortunately as as a manufacturer OEM for Microsoft Windows are not interested in help to say that there is problem Acer.  ACERS site does not even recognize the existence of the cell phone model I which makes contact them for a solution physically impossible (everyone has a phone number or e-mail address >).  In any case, they had a free upgrade to Win 7.  (Oh you can't imagine how much I care that I didn't...).

    So I've updated.  And all USB memory devices do not work all of a sudden.

    All of them try to load drivers then give up with the error message.

    Just to get the usual answers to the road!

    • I tested the USB ports.  All work.
    • I uninstalled all the USB ports and let the Win 7 to reinstall. No problem
    • I deleted the file that records discs.
    • I made a new clean install.  Nothing has changed.
    • Cannot switch the chipset drivers.  Won't let me, says I don't need them
    • Each drive is displayed during the startup screen.
    • Each drive appears in Device Manager but the poster as a fault.
    • Updated installed, removed, re-installed all the drivers on the planet.
    • Tried the solution of "regedit" suggested elsewhere, temptation of power my laptop, lucky I system restored to the top.
    • Does not appear in disk management, so cannot deal with any drive letter conflict.
    • Have no viruses.
    • Have one firewall installed.
    • Prayed
    • Touched the thing of reversal
    • Pleaded
    • Pretended to cry.  Not interested.

    So, I'm hoping against hope that someone has a solution to this problem.  I have a vague idea that it might be something to do with the "ports" and the port settings.  I'm afraid is a closed book to me, so please, geniuses everywhere, please help!  Give me something new to try!

    Or a way to talk to a human being at Acer!

    This had already happened with another server (also W2003 DC), but the hardware was completely different; Unfortunately, I wasn't able to solve this year here.

    Any help or advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance

    I finally found the guilty service.

    It was pcmonitor monitor/remote control software. Once I stopped it is service vmware converter could get the capacity of the physical drives.

    It is rather curious because I made several servers P2V conversions using this software (so far the last one two weeks ago - the difference between that server and this one was that the first was not a domain controller).

    I intend to have someone to do a clean install of windows7 on my HP laptop (which currently is running vista home premium) from the windows disks 7 provided by HP. My Favorites will be remembered when I reload Firefox?

    All of your personal information for Firefox (bookmarks, passwords, etc.) are stored on your hard drive.

    You must make a backup of your entire profile folder or some elements in your profile folder before installing Windows 7.

    1. Put the backup somewhere a course on another hard disk, CD or USB/pin/thumb/jump drive until after Windows 7 is installed, and Firefox is re-installed.
    2. Then, you can copy selected files in your profile folder under your Windows 7 Firefox installation.

    Some information is duplicated in the following articles, but try all read. If you plan carefully, you should lose any of your information.

    Don't forget that you will need to re - install on your new installation of Windows 7, all Extensions (including the toolbars you have installed), Plugins and themes you have installed in Firefox.

  • Computer maintenance and its importance

    Computer maintenance is the practice of keeping computers in good state of repair. I have well maintained computer can live well beyond its "life expectancy."

    Computer maintenace can take two forms. The first is to physically clean the computer itself and the second is by cleaning the 'virtual computer '. The virtual machine is inside your computer, system files, documents, programs, etc. Here is a good list of tips and tools that you can use to keep your computer.

    Virus protection

    Install anti-virus software to protect you. There are many programs that are available to help protect yourself you against viruses are created every day. Ask 10 different people what antivirus program, you should get you'll get 10 different answers. You may need this option to find out which antivirus program you prefer and run with it research. As long as the program is updated regularly, you will find that you are taking the right step in the right direction.

    Update regularly, check your settings of your antivirus program. Many of these programs come by default to search for and install updates regularly (usually once a day). If your program is not defined that way I would strongly advise to search for and install updates on a daily basis. Every day without the latest definitions are everyday you find yourself vulnerable to the latest virus.

    Applications


    Each application and utility are prone to security risks. The developers of these applications can find a breach in security and patch it, if you don't have the latest version, you can find yourself open to attack.

    Remove unused programs. If you have not used a program in a long time, then it is likely that you don't need. Many unused programs can represent free space that is not available to you because you have a program that you have installed a year ago. Many new computers have testing programs and other software that you might find that it is not enough. By removing unused software, you can help up to free space that you can use later on the road.

    Clear temporary files and other unnecessary files


    When you use the Internet a copy of every web page you visit is stored. This is useful because it allows for faster viewing later on the road. Say I visit Facebook every day, in theory the first day, I'm going it can be slow to load, but every day it's going to be faster as the day of the original. While this works great it does she become a resource hog when you already visited 10000 Web sites last month. Since it is space occupied at least once a month you should consider to erase temporary internet files, internet history and cookies out of your system. Here's how to delete information on the three most used browsers.

    Internet Explorer

    Chrome

    Firefox

    The next thing you want to do is clean out that downloads the file. What happens so you go to a site and you decide to download any software. If you click on it and it downloads and then you run it. The program installs and everything works fine with the program, you are quite right? No! What of this file, you need to download? It is still on your computer and it is absorbed to free space. Only a single file resumes May 5 k of space, but let's say download you 20 apps, oh are you want to look at the pictures if you have downloaded those as well. Now take a little space that you can not use your downloads. Cleaning of your download folder can help find some of this space lost on your computer.

    The download folder is easy to access

    1. Click Start
    2. Go to 'My Documents '.
    3. Downloads

    You should consider to keep this cleaned once a month. If you find that you download a bunch of stuff then you might want to dump this on a more regular basis.

    While we're on the subject of clean up the record of downloads let's talk about these zip files. If you receive a bunch of files (or even a single file) and it is in a zipped file, the first thing you need to do is to unpack. When you unpack the compressed file does not disappear. Once you have checked that you need out of compressed form file was safe to remove that file zipped as it is needlessly occupy space.

    Maintain the integrity of the data


    At least once a month, you should check your hard disk for errors by using two simple solutions.

    The first thing you'll do is a defragmentation of the hard drive. When you use data on your computer on a regular basis data gets fragmented throughout your entire hard drive. While you can see an MP3 file, your computer see pieces of this file that can be spread in the entire hard drive. You tell to defragment the hard drive the program to go find all the pieces and put them back together.  In making them together again and find this single file, you notice that specific file is significantly faster and other aspects of your computer can speed up.

    The next tool to use is a Check Disk. The disk check will focus on volumes of records and see if it finds problems, if that is the case he will try to fix it for you. Very hard to solve problems can be simplified by running a checking the disk for bad sectors, or the repaired lost clusters.

    These two programs are built into Windows and are ready for you to use.

    1. Click on my computer
    2. Right click on your hard drive (usually drive C), and then select Properties
    3. Click the Tools tab and you should see these options.

    Backup


    How important is your data? The most important that your data are for you more you save. Generally, once a month backup solution works for most people. However, all critical files should be backed up as regularly as you change them. There are many programs that enable to backup your data on a CD, jump drives or storage online. You should examine the different options and find the best fit.

This is usually a really sure fall. You never know when you can accidentally delete something you really need, and you will find.
