I went to format the little toy and it tells me that it is WRITE PROTECTED.I tried to go in regedit to see if the value for write protect is set 0 or 1 - needs to be 0.I tried couple of freewares but failed.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Kingston flash drive 8gb usb 2.0 just like this one:[code]....
but for some reason it's not working on my pc/laptop/ps3 and any other computer I tried it on.
when I plug in the flash drive I don't get any detected sound on my windows and it's not there on my computer either, just like as if it wasn't plugged in at all, I tried using different usb ports and it's the same, I'm guessing it's a hardware problem with the flash drive itself not software at all.
I don't care about the flash itself but the files inside the flash are really important to me I just need to copy them on my PC and that's it.
Kingston Technology is instructing customers to return certain models of its memory sticks, after the firm discovered a glitch in its DataTraveler Secure flash drives.
The company said in a security notice that the models affected were “privacy” editions of the DataTraveler Secure, DataTraveler Elite and DataTraveler Blackbox.
Kingston said the security flaw could allow a wrongdoer to hack into the memory sticks. “A skilled person with the proper tools and physical access to the drives may be able to gain unauthorized access to data,” warned the vendor.
Kingston added that a number of its USB drives were not affected by the security flaw.
Customers whose drives could be exploited by the security loophole should return the product, where Kingston said it would apply a factory update.
Kingston had claimed that its Data Traveler Secure drive was the first of its kind to protect “100 percent of data on-the-fly via 256-bit hardware-based AES encryption.”

I'm having a bit of a problem with my DVD drives not being recognized. In a prior post, one of the fellows on this stream (Randy) solved the problem I'm having by suggesting that I edit the Upper and Lower Filters in the Registry. Unfortunately, I've lost this information. This time, I'll put it in a Jump Drive and lock in a safe!

Myapologies if this should be in hardware, but I didn't know if it was something that had to do with windows 7The virus was anti-virus protection 2011.I used antizeroaccess, stopzilla,avg(which is my normal antivirus), malwarebytes, and kaperskyYes all of them. It was a nasty virus.My main hard drive c: shows up as well as my second drive. e:. My other drive used to show up as well as f: but since all of this it hasn't. Nothing else was changed besides resetting the cmos battery and a couple of disconnect reconnections, becasue the drive wasn't showing up.Ide channel 0 master and Ide channel 0 slave (set to cable select). are the 2 hd'sIde channel 4 is a disk drive.The 3rd HD is also set to cable select. but that shouldn't matter cause that's what it was set to before.I also tried another spare hard drive I had with the same connections as the 3rd hard drive ( marked as slave and cable select). It was not found either.not in my computer or in bios
View 9 Replies View RelatedI had Windows 7 installed under Western Digital 400 Gigabyte Driveat first I got the BCD error message so I tried a repair with the rescued disk. When I use the repair tool the drive is recognized as Windows 7 followed by the letters zero. If I boot to another drive both drives are listed but I cannot open the damaged drive and under properties it shows 0 GB. I tried using the command prompt and the bootrec commands and they appear to complete but still the drive will not boot and is listed as having 0 GB. I can not understand how I could have lost all the files unless the repair utility in trying to fix the disc wiped it clean.
what to do next short of reinstalling window seven.
I have THREE Hard Drives.
1) XP. Old PATA hard drive
2) Windows 7 SATA
3) New Hard Drive (E; with program files, back up, images, music.
Sorry, I had to edit this message as every time I went to type E colon, slash, it gave a smiley face. so the E; = E colon, slash to indicate E assigned hard drive letter, the new hard drive.
When I boot to XP with the new hard drive (E; shows up fine.
When I disconnect XP and boot to Windows 7, the new hard drive (E; shows that it installs fine (lower right in windows, shows that the OS see's it and says it installed fine), yet I cannot see it.
The configuration that does not work is two (2) SATA drives, one with Windows 7, the other, the new hard drive.
To be sure, I disconnected the Windows 7, connected XP (PATA) and booted again, sure enough, the new hard drive (E; is fine and shows up.
I then disconnect and attach the Windows 7 hard drive with the new hard drive, (I even tried moving the SATA cable around) and Windows 7 boots fine, shows me that it installs the newly found hard drive (E; but does not show up on my computer.
Now, here is what may, or may not be a bug.
The new hard drive was formatted NTFS in WINDOWS XP, the drive letter assigned was E:, when I boot to Windows 7, I have a Virtual Clone Drive which also has the letter E: assigned to it. Could it be possible that Windows 7 does not know what to do since the Virtual Hard Drive was there first and therefore, doesn't show the new hard drive when running Windows 7?
I have tried everything I can to get it to be seen in Win 7 to no avail. Again, it works fine in XP, but does not show up in Windows 7.
Has anyone heard of this problem before? Do I need to rename, or assigned a different hard drive letter to E:? If so, how do I do that?
I've got a relatively new 1tb Buffalo drive connected to a Laptop.Its been working fine, but now Windows 7 wants to format it.On connecting the USB cable the disk spins up OK, but then the Win message comes up saying it wants to format the disk.I'm far less keen on reformating the disk than Microsoft are because there's data on the disk that I want to keep.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed the Chrome OS IMG file on my flash drive and tried to boot from it, but it turns out my flash drive is now un-recognizable. I tried assigning a different drive letter in computer management, but it doesn't show up there. Sometimes it will show up and Windows will say that I need to format it, but the format always fails.Other flash drives are recognized by my computer. I am using a Lexar Jump Drive, but I'm not sure what model it is.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using a Dell laptop Studio XPS 1640. Ok, I was about to upgrade to Windows 7 and it listed a couple of programs that needed to be deleted, so I uninstalled them. The 2nd or 3rd time I was required to restart my computer, it froze at the "Shutting Down..." screen for about 20 minutes. I waited and waited and decided to power down. I turned it back on, and it didnt say Windows was not shut down properly, so i figured it was ok.
However when I booted back up, I was going to eject and re-insert the upgrade CD. I hit eject, nothing happens. Hit eject again, nothing happens. I go to Computer to try and view the CD thats in my CD Drive....NOTHING SHOWS UP! MY CD drive is now UNRECOGNIZED by my computer! Now I cant complete the upgrade. Not to mention, the upgrade made me uninstall itunes and my virus protection, saying a new version will be installed automatically after the upgrade.
I have two hard drives; an older 20gb hard drive that is was forced to use to install Windows 7 and a 1tb Seagate Constellation ES ST31000424SS SAS hdd. Neither my bios nor the disk manager in Windows 7 are recognizing the 1tb drive. I have checked and rechecked the connections and power and both seem fine. In all my computer has in it:
-Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R mother board
-8 gigs of ram
-an i7 quadcore bloomfield processor
-nvidia quadro workstation graphics card
This is my first build but i have been looking for some time at different threads and i can not find a solution to the problem. The Constellation is an SAS drive that I'm using a converter cable to change into SATA connections. The url for the converter is: [URL]

The flash drive (Lexar Firelfy 2GB) I was using on the XP OS can no longer be read under the Windows 7 OS. Information are stored in it (I am able to access it with computers other than mine), but my computer does not see them.
I have also tried different flash drives with the same results. Under disk management, my computer detects the flash drive but is unable to read it.
