New win 7 pc, had old HD fitted as slave drive, can see & move photos across but wife christmas card mail list (all I really need from old docs) will not view/move/print. If they can be moved there does not seem to be a labels template in win 7 word pad. surely the designers should have expected home premium user to want to write a few labels once a year!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've just downloaded Student and Home Office 2010, and for some reason I now cannot open documnents that are Word 2007. I also cannot save work onto my memory stick, as for some reason, it saves the document as Word 2007, even though I am doing the work on Word 2010! (I only ever had a trial version of 2007, never the whole thing and it is no longer on my comp) I am starting a history course soon, and their online docs are 2007, and again, I can't open them. A message pops up saying that 'the file does not have a programme associated with it for perfoming this action' thats what pops up every time.

Now I can't print anything at all, despite re-installing printer and Office software. System demands that I save any doc first (as tif file only, no alternative format allowed) then won't print it anyway?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAnyone know if you can transfer word documents from Windows CE 6.0 which is the OS on many 7" mini netbooks, over to Windows 7. I am a screenwriter, and I would like to write on the go, so I would like something with a keyboard as opposed to touch screen. I've seen many for under $100 so that's pretty much my limit.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently upgraded to Windows 7 and I'm having problems. I had originally used IE 9 but i was having so many problems i went back to using IE 8. Right now the problems that i'm having are, Windows 7 does not recognize my slave drive and it will not let me open an external link for a new window from an open window (thus i can't even verify my e-mail address for the game i want to start playing). Oh and one other thing, i keep getting a message that says i'm not running a valid windows program. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. I've included the TSG SysInfo as well.

I have two hard drives one 40gb(IDE) and a 2tb(SATA). I have my 32bit OS installed on the 40gig and all my data on my 2tb. Now I recently got more ram and now need to install 64bit.
My question is can I install the 64 bit on my 2tb and have a dual boot.
I'm installing Windows using a setup that I Downloaded that has a few tweeks added in so no disc to install from just a setup file.
I installed a new hard drive, and then installed windows to that new hard drive with the old one still connected and I now the two drives are somehow, linked so that if I remove the old drive, windows doesn't boot. When I reconnect the drive, windows boots up fine. I checked the boot priorities in the bios and its all as it should be.
I tried the windows repair disk, used the top option three times (as I've seen recommended on other forums), to no avail. I've tried the other options but the problem is, the windows installation is not detected, same with restore points, nothing works.
I think there's something to do with the Disk Management utility. I have the two disks, disk0 and disk1, disk1 is the disk I want to remove.
this is what the page looks like:
disk0 (boot, page file, crash dump, primary partition) disk1 (system, active, primary partition) + (8mb unallocated)
It seems the System-(thing?) is on disk1 so when i remove the drive, the computer doesnt boot. Makes sense. What doesnt make sense is that windows ISNT installed on that disk so why the hell is "system" on there and causing trouble??
Would making the partition on disk0 active solve my problem? I dont want to click on anything and break it so I ask here.
I am a first time Windows 7 user, coming from XP. I read that you could not go directly from XP to 7 without having Vista first, so I did a full wipe and format of my drives and installed 7 last night.
I noticed that I could not access the newly formated slave drive through the computer, but I could see it in Device Manager. As seen here:
I am unsure whether this is because of something I had done unknowingly during installation or by chance something entirely different. Might anyone have an idea?
Can I do that? I have windows XP right now and i was thinking about buying another hard drive, making it a slave, and installing windows 7 on the slave drive so that i can keep XP on the master drive and have a dual boot setup. Is there any problems i would encounter or does it sound ok?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a win 7 hard drive that would not boot up. So I purchased a USB 2.0 to Sata/ide hard drive adapter in hopes of accessing the drive to copy the users files off of the drive. I see the drive in disk manager and it says that the drive is healthy & encrypted so enter the bitlocker recovery key for the drive, butI get the following error: 'f: is not accessible. The parameter is incorrect.
How can I get the data off of this drive?
I have a second internal hard drive with data. Currently it is the slave. I have tried cable select with the same result. Disk management sees the drive but I cant assign it a letter. All options under Task -> All options are greyed out except delete volume. How do I give it a letter so I can access the data?.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded my computer from vista 64bit to win 7 64bit. I am usually ok with computer problems, but this one has stumped me. I use 2 hard drives. One 500gb SATA for OS. The other is a 250 Seagate IDE slave drive. Everything has been good since back in my xp days. Until this week when I installed windows 7. It takes about 10 minutes for my computer to boot into win 7 OS while my slave drive is plugged in. When I unplug the slave drive my computer runs very nicely.
SPECS:
ASUS P5Q-Pro
Intel 8500 -OC to 3.8 from 3.16
8GB DDR2 RAM
If any other specs are needed I have no problem giving the information.
I have a ASUS EeePC netbook (windows 7) and I cannot print my documents in wordpad. The printer goes through the motions of printing but the paper comes out blank. The printer and cartridges are brand new and it will print emails and anything off the internet okay, but not wordpad docs.

quick breakdown. Ive installed windows 7 onto my ssd (primary drive) and updated and installed all drivers. so its now a blank canvas. ive got a 500gb wd hd which has all my programs, data, pictures etc on it, including the old o/s.files and folders I can easily backup and move across as i please but ideally id like to keep the ssd relatively clutter free. (for games, data hungry apps)do i need to back that old drive up, reformat it and start again, installing the same programs to it minus the o/s?or does anyone know if i can run those original programs from a slave drive and if so how can i access them in the new o/s?in particular things like antivirus programs, itunes (which has a 130gb library) and so on which are already installed on the old drive but at the moment inaccesible as programs except for their folders.
