XPS 400 - Windows XP SP2 can not find my two hard drives when you try to install the OS
Help, please! My XPS 400 system crashed with an error hal.ddl. Was able to copy my important data on a disk external usb. Tried to re - install windows XP on the old disk and windows does not recognize the hard drives. I have two drives a Maxtor 250 GB and a 160 GB Maxtor. I am able to run the utilities on disks and they spend. After many trys, I thought since I was my important data on the external usb drive, I would go buy a new HD and start all over again. I bought a WD 500 GB drive and you guessed it, windows xp couldn't recognize the disc. I use Windows XP service pack 2. I read that Dell had the F11 recovery tool and I ran with success. However as I started to load some of my programs on the disk, it seemed super slow and I don't know that I have confidence in it. What should I do to get Windows XP to recognize my drives on the installer? FRUSTRATING!

After you download El Capitan, I received the following error message when you try to install: the drive is not formatted in MAC OS extended (journaled). Use disk utility to enable logging or reformat the disc. Can anyone help? (My disk utility shows that she in MAC OS extended (journaled) format.)
It shows that it is Mac OS extended, not journaled. Click enable logging in the toolbar.
The thing you read is if you format the drive using the RAID settings you have selected. You have to look at the bottom of the window where it shows the Format.

"Not enough memory is available to process your order" when you try to install the drivers
Recently, I have problems when you try to install the drivers for a USB mouse that I have. When I plug the mouse, it detects it and tries to install the software but it gives me an error saying he found the software but can't install it because "not enough memory is available to process your order."
I spent a bit of time, search tries to find a solution to this problem, and I tried a lot of things without success.
I tried the things:
-Manually installed the drivers. While I can install them, Windows does not recognize the drivers as being installed and the mouse still not working.
-The fix IRPStackSize. It was not in the registry, so I thought this might be the solution, but it does not solve my problem.
-Troubleshooting and repair of Windows Update. I had a memory leak problem with Windows Update, so I thought fix which would cure the problem. I was able to d/l an update that corrects this problem, but it does not solve the driver problem.
Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

* I have already connected to fss.live.com and https://familysafety.microsoft.com. This solution does not remedy the issue.* *.
When you try to use the Windows 7 parental control features, it first asks you to connect to Live. When I do, I get the 8004B3E9 error Code and it asks me to "connect to account.live.com and accept the terms of use. However, in doing so, there are no terms of use for me to accept. I also go to fss.live.come and familysaftely.microsoft.com and no option for the conditions of use is available to accept. In addition, I tried different browsers.
I can connect on Live.com and view my account easily, but without conditions of use prompt appears for me to accept, so my attempts to use the parental controls are stuck in this cycle, where it won't let me past without accepting conditions that do not seem to exist.
How can I make sure I am set up as the account 'Parent '.

Hello, the mobile version of firefox is not available on the windows phone platform: Firefox work on my mobile?
There was technical and legal obstacles in the app store initially that discouraged mozilla to start any developments in this direction.

I have a new version with a platform of Skylake, and when I try to install a new windows 7 OS, I get to the screen installation with choice of country, etc. and have no function on my keyboard, mouse, so I can't click or tab to make choices. Basically, I'm stuck in this Setup screen. I tried with two different OS (CD), and are both the same thing.
If you use a wireless keyboard/mouse, try switching to a wired USB keyboard and mouse.
