Yeah I know I did, but I wasn't expecting the windows 7 packs to be out or talked about, so I was comparing them to windows vista. I was just trying to figure out how you get the licenced versions....

Well I didn't mean right now. Like is there something similiar to what I'm looking for for Vista? I don't want I'm just curious what its called and how to get it is all.

I have a question about licenses for Windows 7. I know a lot of software companies will let you buy a retailers licence for a product and then you could use that product on multi-computers. Does...

After POST I got a message that said SEC Master Hard Disk: S.M.A.R.T. status BAD, Backup and Replace.

Then it did a consistency CHKDSK and said

The problem with copying smal files is that becuase of the types of files/programs I have on that drive it would be near impossible to go through them one by one, plus even going through them one by...

Well, the Cavier HDD in my sig is acting funny. Last night I loaded about 30 gigs of data to it, not that much (its still over 60 percent free). So today I turned on my computer and was using files...

I know how to do it in XP, but I have no idea in Vista. I have had Vista since the day it came out and there have many programs that I havn't even opened and I don't plan on, mainly....

Thanks, I didn't think I would have to run diskclean up so soon! Jeeze, that helped a LOT, I'm not quite where I think I should be in free space, but that did a lot of help. Thanks again.

Ok, so I just installed 64 Bit Vista on my Raptor 300 Gig harddrive, I've only installed a handful of programs, Microsoft Office, WoW, and some instant messengers. For some reason I have already used...

Acutally thats not true, I finally recovered most of the files (there was only one directory I couldn't acess, and I beilve it was corrupted from the hard drive failing anyway), after trying...

Err, like I've said in other posts.

1) I can't turn on the computer with the HDD plugged in, it won't start.

2) You can't chkdsk a RAW file system.

3) I've tried formatting from Disk...

I doubt, I don't really even care about the harddrive itself, I just want to get it working well enough to get back some of the lost data. I have a few programs that are good for that Star Pheonix,...

I mean the case has no screws. Maxtor - Personal Storage 3200

Oh ok...I'll try it .. if i can, its not an easy task, there arn't any screws or anything, the last time I tried something similiar to this I ended up not being able to use the external as an...

How would that change the formatting? Just curious before i go through all that work...

CHKDSK doesn't work for RAW file types, if I recall correctly (chkdsk needs to have a normal format, I beileve)... which is what the system became when I tried formatting via disk managment like jack...

When I tried it it just "closes" out. So I tried my Vista to do the same thing, and instead of closing out it says "the disk needs to be formatted, blah blah". So I can't check it without it being...

I tired from disk managment, when I did it got to 100 percent complete but then a popup came on and said "windows could not complete the format" (something along those lines, wasn't exactly the same...

Lol yea... sorry about that. My English is not so good.

I plug in it the drive, windows pops up and says "Windows needs to format the drive" I click "ok" run the wizard, after about 10 minutes of...

I get this error when trying to re-format my Maxtor external HDD. What can I do about it?

First off I didn’t know if this should be in dead machines, or monitors. This problem doesn’t really fit in either, so I’ll post in both and if a mod wants to lock one because its not in the right...

Ill try that right away, but no the lights don't come on. Also its just the ethernet port that came with the mobo, not like on a pci card.

So on my friend's computer, his RJ45 jack stopped working. I thought maybe it got shut off in the BIOS, even though it just stopped working while using the computer. Its not the cord it self as when...
