Disk Management not Working

Disk Management in W7 x64 appears to be non-functional. I've got a dual-boot configuration with Vista Ultimate. The problem appears to stem from the Virtual Disk Service not running. I am unable to manually start the service with a "path cannot be found" error. I'm sorry I don't have more detail then that. I will give more information later today when I get back to the computer and can input the exact error message. Anyone else have problems with Disk Management or other services that won't run?

 Hello,
What Virtual Disk software are you running?  That could be why it Disk Management is not working.  I have Virtual Clone Drive and i can still access my Disk Management screen just fine.

  • Password Manager not working with any internet browsers

    I have Thinkvantage password manager installed (v. 3.20.0311.00) on my Thinkpad X201. I am running Windows 7 professional, 64 bit. Password Manager works for all programs except IE8 or Mozilla Firefox (eg. works for Outlook, works for iTunes, etc.). When browsing, the program simply never pops up. It worked previously, and I still have many saved website login details, but it never logs in for me any more and new sites do not activate the program.
    I have made sure that the add-on is enabled and I have checked the box next to "enable 3rd party browser extensions" in the advanced tab of internet options. I have also tried resetting internet explorer settings. As mentioned above, this in not only a problem with IE8; it also occurs with Firefox.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Same problem here. I just recieved mine (Win 7 pro 64 bit, X201 Multitouch) last week and password manager not working at all in ANY web browser. It recorded my .net password just fine, but i can't get it to work in IE8. Who pays this kind of money for something that doesnt work?

    Hi-
    The last time I saw a similar problem to yours, he was also running Panther. I advised reinstalling the 10.3.9 combo update, and his woes were gone.

    Another thought is to check System Preferences/CD's & DVD'S, and check your selection nuder "When you insert a blank CD" (or DVD).
    Running Disk Utility from the install disk, and repairing permissions is also another possible fix.

    My Adobe Photoshop 6 Disappeared off my computer leaving only Image Ready. Now my disk will not work. I have the Auth key..where can I find a copy to download?

    Sorry I would not know how to score a copy of the Program disc. I would not even trust it if I did.
    Photoshop is one of the most pirated software out there and in cases loaded with malware.
    Ok then, create a admin account on XP, log in and try running the cd there.

  • After the updating firefox 5.0 the internet download manager not working (not compatible) can you explan why?

    After the updating fire fox 5.0 the internet download manager not working (not compatible) can you explain why?

    Add-on developers need to keep up with new versions of Firefox as they are released and update their product. Have you checked with IDM to see if they have an update for you to install? Or ask them when they are going to have an update ready for 5.0.
    Another thing you could do is to install FlashGot. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flashgot/ <br />
    http://flashgot.net/ <br />
    The developer of Flashgot, Giorgio Maone, keeps his extensions compatible with versions of Firefox that are still in development - future release versions.

  • W7 64 BIT Password Manager not working

    Using CSS 8.3. Can use fingerprint to log into W7. But the Password Manager feature will no longer work.
    Known issue?
    I'm also dual booting with Vista 32 bit. In Vista it works fine. Could the problem be one BIOS chip since its hardware connected (I think) but 2 OS'?

  • Disk Utility's "Verify Disk" does not work

    For some reason I am not able to run the "Verify Disk" option in the Disk Utility application. I open up Disk Utility, I can click on the button, and it begins. However, while it says it is verifying the disk, and the status bar appears (just shows it working, doesn't show a time remaining), it continues like this for an inordinate amount of time. Eventually, the entire computer freezes up; I can move the mouse, but nothing responds to keyboard or mouse clicks. I am forced to hold down the power button to shut-down.
    To get more information I decided to run this command in the Terminal. This is what I get:
    +mycomputername~ root# diskutil verifyVolume /+
    +Started verify/repair on volume disk0s2 Macintosh HD+
    When I press enter after typing the first line, the second line appears, and it appears but nothing else shows up. Eventually, like in Disk Utility (which makes sense), the entire computer freezes up. (I've waited hours)
    Does anyone know why this tool might not be working? I know, when using the terminal, more dialog should show what it is working on, which is why I find it strange it doesn't even get past the "Started verify" point. For example, the following is supposed to show up eventually, but doesn't:
    +Checking HFS Plus volume.+
    +Checking Extents Overflow file.+
    +Checking Catalog file.+
    etc...
    I used the command line to verify with fsck too. +(sudo fsck_hfs -l /dev/disk0s2)+ This worked. From what I can tell, the problems it generated were benign.
    On a different note, the reason I want to do this is because I am trying to use Bootcamp Assistant 1.4 Beta to create an XP Partition (after I had to get rid of it due to a virus), but it gets stuck on the "Partitioning Disk", and the status (which doesn't show remaining time) just continues to stay the same after a few hours, eventually freezing the computer in the same way the Verify Disk does. See a theme here? I'm not sure if this is related or not.
    So why does the Verify Disk tool not work for me? Anyone have any ideas? I'm hesitant to try to use the Disk Repair tool, without the Verify Disk tool working.
    Thanks for any help! Oh, and Happy New Year!

    For some reason that didn't cross my mind. I booted with the OSX installer disk, and used DU and the Verify Disk worked!
    Oddly enough when it finished I got an error message. Maybe that's just because the Verify encountered errors. It said:
    +First Aid failed+
    +Disk Utility stopped verifying "Macintosh HD" beause the following error was encountered: The underlying task reported failure on exit+
    Here's the results of the scan:
    +Checking Catalog file.+
    +Resereved fields in the catalog record have incorrect data+
    +Incorrect block count for file Temp File 1.tmp+
    +(It should be 4529 instead of 0)+

    +Overlapped extent allocation (file 1815158 /Users/..)+

    +(It should be 13585467 instead of 13578598)+
    +The Volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.+
    +Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit.+
    I'm going to repair the disk, only after I backup my data. Not sure if these problems are 'benign' or not. Maybe that will solve my Boot Camp problems, maybe not. If not, well, it's either a complete reformat of the drive, or I'll have to buy Leopard so I can get Boot Camp support.
    Thanks for your help again! So nice to see something working right on my Mac, finally

    if there's a problem with the number of installations, you'll see a message about an excess activation problem.

  • How do i get the ipod to mount in itunes, it is seen by disk manag. not exp

    ok i have worked on this piece for the last 7 hours and to no avail. I've tried the 5 r's five times, I've copied the usbinf.inf driver to the windows dir, even though it was already there. I've tried to get the explorer to recognize the device, no dice, (although it does show up in the management directory as a disk drive with an actual "ipod" label. I've changed the disk name to "M:" and that didn't work. Formatting is not an option b/c the disk is not enabled or so computer managment says. I've tried reinstalling itunes and itunes updater several times. I even downloaded the applications again just to make sure they weren't corrupt.
    The message i usually get out of the updater is
    "unable to mount ipod." ,(after a wait that has made me age several years).
    Im at a loss not only b/c of the time ive spent trying to work this out, and all the forums I've read, but the reason all this started is the ipod fried my last motherboard, a Gigabyte technologies 8KNXP ultra REV 1, when i plugged the ipod into the usb ***!!! I've tried everything short of DOS prompt (of which I have limited understanding) to try and get her working, any suggestions?!?!?

    Try following the steps in this article, and try to go about restoring your iPod again. See if you can't get it to work...

    Also, it never hurts to try to put the iPod into disk mode whenever you're going to restore it.
