Mass Storage Drive Needed For Sony VGX TP3 Media Center PC?
Jun 13, 2012
Recently upgraded my machine from 3 gigs to 4 gigs of ram so I needed to upgrade my Windows 7 OS to 64bit to use it all. The problem is, now my external WD 1TB external drive is not recognized. I went to the Sony site for drivers for mass storage, however all I could see was a chipset.exe for 32bit vista/ Windows 7. Ran it anyway and still get the message 'Unknown device' 'Driver software was not successfully installed' Even tried using 'DriverDoctor' to install missing drivers, but no joy.
I have a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ4MN Notebook. My pendrive [USB Stick] does not work also my Vaio webcam does not work either My screen size is only 3/4 display...I have window 7 OS...
Sony Viao VGN-CR220E notebookprevious os is windows vistarecently replaced it by windows 7 home premium 64 bitnow problem is mass storage controller driver missing. so memory stick reader doesn't work. from where i get this driver
So when I try to watch recorded TV programs or watch videos. I get an error what says: Video error files needed to display video are not installed or not working correctly. Please restart Media Center and/or restart the computer. I have restart both. Not work. I have read several forums and update drivers and uninstall drivers and do everything what there has been. But nothing. I have Windows 7 (32-bit), Ati Radeon HD 5670 1gb video card, 4000gb ram, AMD Athlon (tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+ 2.1 ghz (maybe) 2 CPU's. Its been working before and im not do any big changes to my computer. Only thing what i do is that I installed Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas.
Keyboard and mouse drivers unaffected.USB Mass storage device properties messagewith driver check on:"Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device."with driver check off:Tells me drivers are corrupt or missing.Search show diver where it should be:C:\Windows\System32\drivers\usbstor.sys (also usbfilter.sys).Used the HP Recovery Manager to restore factory setting for USBStor.sys, it indicates it is successful but no changeon reboot, still cannot use flash drives, SD cards, external HDs. Units work find on my laptop.Called HP 4 times, after extensive troubleshooting each time, following their instructions, go to hp.com/go/instant, get screen saying request has been received. Each time tech tells me he cannot find my request.After a while, read 2 hours, told they need to talk to supervisor, will call me back, KISS OF DEATH, never hear from them.
If I have lots of files (more than 70) on a DVD-RW. Windows takes ages to read the disk and be ready to access the files.Is there an optimum way of doing this that makes Windows happier?I update the files fairly regularly.I do have DVD buring software. (In any case, if I use Windows to update the disk, it finalises the disk.) I remember with earlier versions of Windows using a UDF reader, and then there was no speed problem.
Are there pros and cons to using an external drive vs an internal for movies on WMC? My plan is to buy a 1 TB external, hook it up as USB to the media PC and watch movies off it. I don't know if there are performance issues if its done that way or not. Any suggestions?
Been using the new Windows 7 for a week or so now, everything is great! But i have one big issue. Every time i plug in a USB pen drive or my tomtom device, a window appears with a message saying that the device drivers can not be installed. When i click on the ballon message it just displays the device followed by a red X and 'Failed'
I have tried many usb mass storage devices and i still have the same issue.
I've just got a StarTech dock station for the Hard Drive (with Esata and USB 3.0 ports). When I first used it first time. The first thing I use is ESATA port and ran without a problem (run CrystalDiskInfo and CrstalDiskMark to test) and also I format the drive.But when I try USB 3.0 port is won't response well (using express card). For example it found new hardware and open the drive - but then I ran CrystalDiskInfo or CrstalDiskMark it won't open unless I disconnect the USB then the program will open after I disconnect the USB. I've try copy a file across nope crash or stop working. So I've try using USB 2 to see if not the USB 3.0 same problem but gone back to Esata port work fine!So I've try on another laptop to see if not the Dock problem. And USB 2 work!!!! even USB 3.0 work using Express card so it not the dock problem (The laptop is running Win XP 32 bits).I also got WD passport and book (1tb/3tb) and they both work fine on my laptop plus the USB 3.0.
On one of my Win 7 Pro computers, I almost always get the error message when trying to *eject* a flash/thumb drive: "Problem Ejecting USB Mass Storage Device. This device is currently in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device, and then try again." This occurs all the time, even when I close down Adobe Illustrator, the program I usually copy a file from onto the flash drive.
Win 7 pro 32bit Lenovo x201 tablet: previously working USB thumb drives & Seagate 750G usb external drive now NOT recognized by Win 7 work fine c/ other win 7 systems.Tried uninstall /reinstall usb port but get driver error "this operation requires interactive windows station" also tried MS fixit repair but repair fails to complete.
I am installing Windows 7 on my Compaq Presario SR5010NX. SATA hard drives and IDE hard drives both detect and are visible in Setup (BIOS) as well as in my existing Windows 7 which is on a small 37 Gb SATA. When I try to install Windows 7 onto a new SATA hard drive 1.0T it wont show up in the window to select it for installation. The next window says to brows to the device driver to install it in the system. It describes the needed driver as a 'Mass Storage Controller Driver' which I cannot find anywhere. WTF do I do ?
I turned on my computer a couple of days ago and found that my entire hard drive had been erased including the operating system. When I tried to reinstall the OS it asked me to load a mass storage driver.
i just installed Windows 7 64bit on My Laptop [code] After it installedi it. i had a 1 Conflict in My Hardware Device List it said i had No Driver Installed on The Mass Storage Controller. i have tried using the gateway drivers but it said it would not work with this Version of Windows.i tried doing Windows Update it says no Drivers Found any clues where i can get one?????
I have got very lucky and acquired a Microworks Black-Hawk XR-5 gaming laptop. Basic story is that my father's company purchased it to run a very complicated program and the laptop ended up not working with it. So it's been collecting dust for years until I picked it up and began using it. The laptop had XP on it when I got it, but I soon installed Windows 7 and that went rather smoothly, except one thing. The Mass Storage Controller is missing a driver? Windows can't seem to figure out what driver I need either, as going through the automatic updates solves nothing and it keeps telling me that Windows can't find the driver software. I'd simply go to the manufacturer and find what driver I need, however, Microworks seems to no longer have a page.So, I have absolutely no idea what to do.
I have an HP G60 440US notebook, It has vista premium edition.I am trying to upgrade it to windows 7. The issue i am having is when 7 wants to start the install a box pops up and reads some think like Mass storage driver not installed. How is this fixed so i can finish installing 7 on my notebook?
have loaded windows 7 7000 on two test machines, desktop running fine. clean installs in both cases. toshiba satellite a200 runs faster than vista, better shutdown et al, but has a quality index of 2.0 due to driver not loading for mass storage controller, pci memory controller and one unnamed device under other devices.
tried loading the drivers for vista for mass storage controller and chipset under compatibility mode which installed but not recognized by windows 7.
anyone with a toshiba laptop get their msc functioning? any ideas?
