IDE Hard Drive Doesn't Work

Oct 29, 2009

I had Windows XP, then installed Windows 7 32bit Ultimate on IDE hard drive.

HOW CAN I FORMAT THE IDE HARD DRIVE SO AS TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL?

When putting CD in and pressing Intall. I wanted to Format my 40Gig IDE hard drive (that I use for windows intallation only). So as to start CLEAN install.

The CD recognised my hard drives. 250Gig SATA and 40Gig IDE....however would not let me format either or change in any way.....something about load driver?? VIA 6140 something.

So instead I thought to boot the disk and try that way. It didnt recognise the IDE hard drive at all. anyway I chose to do it the first way once I found that driver I mentioned.

I installed windows on woindows, then deleted the windows.old file afterwords.

Virus Formatted Hard Drive And Key Used Doesn't Work?

May 3, 2012

My only Windows DVD was an upgrade disk I used before on the same computer a few months before. I used the command prompt on the DVD to create a NTFS partition for the OS to load onto. After that everything installed and worked fine until I tried to activate use the upgrade key, it says that it can only be for upgrading and not clean installations. I was under the impression that since I already used the key to upgrade on the computer, I would be able to use it again. Will I need to buy a new install disk or will I be able to activate the OS another way? If I do need to buy a new install disk, would it be possible for me to simply find a X16-96072 Windows 7 Home Premium iso and use the activation code that my computer came with to provide the upgrade code with?

Win 7 Backup Doesn't Work

Nov 13, 2009

i installed windows 7, and everything seemed to work fine.

installed a bunch of programs, they also all seem to work.

but then i decided to do some backups; i created the rescue cd using windows, and then cloned the hard drive also using windows 7.

but then i noticed the backup program, and decided to click on "set up backup"; nothing happens.

if i try the same from a disk drive/properties (ie click on backup there) nothing happens either.

any ideas? maybe something i installed broke this, but it seems like a pretty basic function to break like this.

I have installed the Elantech driver of the MSI site

USB Stick Doesn't Work

Aug 8, 2012

Basically, I bought a new USB stick and plugged it in. My computer would search for windows updates, but it would never find the ones required, and the USB wouldn't install. When I unplug the USB and plug it back in again, the computer doesn't even recognize it, and nothing happens. Currently, my computer is not updated, so that's one thing I won't try. I've installed windows 7 updates numerous times in the past, and every time I did, my computer would have problems starting up (i.e. my desktop would be a black screen when it starts and I can't do anything, or the place where I enter my password to log in doesn't load at all).

DirectX 11 Doesn't Seem To Work

Feb 24, 2012

I'm unable to play games requiring DirectX 11, even though I've downloaded it perhaps half a dozen times. Having stumped myself I decided I may as well ask here. The only feedback I've received from things not working is Civilization V says "Requires Service Pack 2 or greater" As far as I know DirectX doesn't update in the Service pack format, and that Windows 7 SP2 doesn't exist yet, and shouldn't be needed for a game of early 2010 as-is. I have an ASUS U56E, with the on-board i5 graphics(I thought it might be that, but my brother's i3 runs said DirectX fine, so maybe mine is damaged) and I, quite frankly, do not want to run it back into Best Buy and hope that it's covered by warranty.

Why Uncheck READ Doesn't Work

Dec 31, 2011

Windows 7 (new computer) I'm trying to transfer folders from Outlook Express to Thunderbird. Found out that if I first transfer them to Windows Live Mail then to Thunderbird it would be easier. I saved the Outlook Express Folder from my old computer, which is long gone, to a travel drive. Now I'm trying to import them to WLM, but it won't do it. I found out I need to uncheck "read" under properties. I've tried and tried that, but every time it reverts right back to having it checked.

Key Sequence Doesn't Work On Windows 7?

May 5, 2012

I have an newer HP Netbook running Windows 7. I recently installed Open Office 3.3 on the machine, and it works fine, except for some key sequences. For example, in the OO Writer, the key sequence Ctrl-Home should move the cursor to the top of the doc. This works fine on my older HP XP Pro laptop, but my netbook ignores or doesn't understand it. I have removed OO and reinstalled it, but the problem still occurs. So, I guess I need to figure out if this is a Windows or Open Office issue.

Restoring Using An Image Doesn't Work

Dec 3, 2011

1) I have a PC running Win7 with 3 HDs(not partition, different HDs).

2) I used Win7 to create an image of the OS HD( C: ) and placed it in D.

3) I used the image once or twice so I know it's a god image, and it's not corrupted.

4) Lately I've been having performence/computer-gets-stuck-issues and I suspected the HD( C: ) because my RAM is fine, and finally windows alreted my that that HD is failing.(plus, I can hear "ticks" of the HD's nittle trying to read whenever the computer got frozen for a sec or two.

5) I replaced the HD that was C: with a new one, and installed Win7 again.

6) Tried to restore using the image and the recorery system said that it needs to format the drive that it's on(makes sense) and ordered me to perform the restore through the windows installation disk,

7)I did. but I get a similiar error that ordered me to restore with an image but using a windows installation disk(and I got to this error using the instllation disk) How can I make the image work?the only problem I can see is that the image was taken off a a different HD than the on I'm trying to restore the image to,but still that's not a good reason for it not to work.

System Restore Doesn't Work

Dec 7, 2012

all the icons on my screen have gone white and i cant click anything not even the start button. when i bring up the task manager all it is is a white box. i can login in fine but that is it. when i try torestore nothing happens, i dont have any restore points so i dont want to do a complete restore if i can avoid it. i have tried running chkdsk in safe mode but nothing has worked. i have also run avg rescue cd form a usb and it identified a trojan but i deleted it, still no effect. i have also tried using the recovery cd i got with my samsung laptop but can only use the startup check tool. this comes back with no issues but i cant use any of the other options.

Reinstallation Of W-LAN Driver Doesn't Work?

Aug 28, 2011

problem with my W-LAN device. Recently I�ve got a strange feeling about it because some things didn�t work correctly, so I decided to reinstall the driver. It didn�t work directly (I don�t know why), so I tried to uninstall it first, to install it again. Now I got this message: This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)An update for the latest driver was useless because I already got the latest one. I tried both installing it from the device manager several times, which failed everytime with this message to come, and by the driver setup (there is a folder available on my computer with all drivers installed on it), which seemed not to have any effect, although it said "Installation complete".
