Installed a RAID card in my Dell Inspiron 3847. However, the RAID BIOS does not show up and I cannot install Windows 7 to it.

That is basically a summary of the problem The Dell Inspiron 3847 does not come with RAID, so I tried installing a PCI-express 1x RAID card. However, the RAID BIOS never shows up. The HDDs show up when I install the RAID controller driver in Windows 7 setup, but I cannot install Windows 7. I am using an IOCrest SY-PEX40008 RAID card with a Silicon Image Sil3124 chipset.
I tried pressing the hotkeys for the RAID BIOS listed in the card's manual, but it seems to just cause bootup to freeze. BIOS also does not seem to detect the RAID card HDDs as boot options.

%AppData% is the name of an environment variable.
On XP that variable points to C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders, use %APPDATA% in the File name field

I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program.

I have just installed a new hard drive in my imac intel 20" (2006) and upgraded the memory and now the hard drive does not show up in the 'select destinations' folder of the install program. I can see the hard drive in the disk utilities window however it wont let me do anything.
It is a seagate 1TB SATA II drive however it is displaying it as a 7.3 TB.
If anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them.
I have tried to erase and partition and get the same error message each time, 'Input/Output error'.
I have tried starting the thing with the install disk which is Mac OS X (Tiger?) which came with the computer. No good.
Anyone?

Thats correct. I can see it in the list however when I attempt to erase it or partition it it's like it's not being found or recognised and it throws up the input/output error message. I am pretty sure that the sensor it attached correctly and it is a SATA drive. I can see all the infor regarding the drive when disk utility is open and it all looks good but I cant access it or do anything with it. It's taunting me!
The install disk is in the drive and the install program runs right up to the point where you have to select the location for the install and there is just nothing in the box where you have to select the hard drive icon.
I have my suspiscions about the drive but any help would be appreciated.

After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
So this is solved.

Late 2013 iMac 27". Used boot camp and installed windows 7 pro. While in Windows 7, in my pc the mac os does not show. Is there anyway to fix this outside of restoring entire computer and trying again. Thank you from a mac newbie

Hello. I bought a new iMac 27" with the following specs:
3.5GHz Intel Core i7 Quad-Core (Haswell)
32GB of 1600MHz DDR3 RAM
3TB Fusion Drive
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M Graphics (4GB)
27" LED-Backlit IPS Display
2560 x 1440 Native Resolution
802.11ac/a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0
Thunderbolt, USB 3.0, SDXC Card Reader
720p FaceTime HD Camera, Dual Mics
Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion (64-bit)
After installing all Mac update, used Bootcamp to create a Windows 7 drive. Everything went fine to a point. While in my Mac OS i can see the windows partition just fine and see/edit documents. However, when in the Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, I cannot see the mac os in my computer at all.
Can someone please help this mac owner newbie? This process worked fine on my mac mini and i have no troubles. It is just on my new iMac that it wont work/show the highlighted paragraph above
Any ideas and/or help would be greatly appreciated.

I understand that much. On my MAC Mini, if you look above at original post, I CAN see both OS while in the Windows 7 partition or the MAC OS. This is NOT the case on my iMac. Again, when in the MAC OS I can see the windows partion and move information between the two that way. When in the WINDOWS partition, the only one that shows is the Windows OS from my computer or network. The only way you can tell its even a MAC is the bootcamp icon in the bottom right corner of toolbar. Both have same version of MAC OS so both should work same way.. When i double click on my computer, it should show both the Windows drive AND the MAC (as does my mini and another iMac 21.5 that i have). This iMac does not do that - only shows windows.

High Point Rocket Raid 622 Does Not Show Up

I am tryng to get a HP Rocket Raid 622 to show up on a 2009 Mac Pro 2.66 Ghz macine. I recently removed a 622 card, which was working fine, that had come with a Sas Digital RAID 5 enclosuer. I sold the enclosure and with it, the RR 622 that was inclueded. I purchased a new 622 and that unit will not show up in my system. I'm running Mac OS 10.6 which is supposed to recognize the card without drivers. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you.

The version I have includes directions for Mac but does not specify Mac on the packaging. It is not clear that there are two versions and I didn't realize that was a possibility until now. Are you saying that there is a Mac version and a non-Mac version?

I installed itunes on my hp netbook. Opening items for the first time, the user agreement does not show an "accept" button to accept the agreement and use itunes. Have reinstalled twice with the same result.

Is itunes compatable with HP netbook?

If the netbook has less than 768 dpi vertical resolution, the "Accept" button will be displaying off the bottom of the screen. (I'm afraid, if so, you'll run into similar trouble when trying to make preferences changes.)
With any luck, the "accept" button although not visible on your system might be the active one. If you hit your enter key does the setup proceed beyond the liscensing agreement?

NiMax does not show hardware servo card

I have a machine that went down and I am trying to very quickly learn about the NI products. The PC has a PCI Servo card in it that is recognized and installed by win 2000. It says it is working, but the LabView application says that there is no board at the address requested when it is launched. It sounds like the configuration/initialization of the card is corrupted. I opened NiMax, but in the tree on the left it does not show any cards under my computer. Any help appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello hokie1989,
The first thing to do is to make sure that you have the correct software installed. Which NI Motion driver do you have installed? This can be found in Measurement and Automation Explorer under the "Software" section. I would try reinstalling the motion driver but before you do the install make sure you take out the PCI card first. Once your computer recognized the card as an NI motion controller you should see it in MAX under Devices and Interfaces >> NI Motion Devices. Also If you install a different version of the motion driver you will need to update the firmware on the motion card. This can be done by clicking on your device in MAX and then selecting "Update Firmware" in the right window. I hope this information helps. Thanks and have a great day.

Graphics Card Does Not Show Up In Device Manager (Re: Installing AMD Video Drivers - Windows 8.1 (Step-By-Step Tutorial)

This tutorial is a step-by-step tutorial on how to "fix" issues of a new graphics card not appearing in Windows 8.1 Pro, or not appearing (as a device) in Device Manager, or it's not being detected by Windows 8.1.
This is the "second part" of a Step-by-Step Tutorial on how to install AMD Radeon graphics card drivers in Windows 8.1 Pro.
GRAPHICS CARD IS NOT DETECTED AND DOES NOT SHOW UP IN WINDOWS 8.1 DEVICE MANAGER
This problem can appear if the video card is not installed properly in the PCI slot and as a result the card is not detected in device manager. Check the physical connections again, reinsert the card properly in the PCI slot, check the connections (including the power cables going to the video card, and ensure that the fan on the graphics card is spinning and the card does have power and is properly seated/inserted) and then install the drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
If the video card is in fact installed properly, but the problem of the video card not being discovered/found by the operating system persists, then try these following methods below to check if this solves the problem.
Method 1:
First, I would suggest you to run the following Microsoft Fixit to get the problem automatically detected and fixed. This Microsoft "fixit" App checks if the device is currently disabled or turned off or the driver is not installed.
Hardware devices are not working or are not detected in Windows.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us
Method 2:
Sometimes, some devices in device manager are hidden due to corrupt or missing drivers.
Follow the steps below to show hidden devices in the device manager and troubleshoot accordingly.
Press the Windows key + X
Select Command Prompt (Admin)
Type set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1 and hit enter
Type Start DEVMGMT.MSC and hit enter.
Once in Device Manager hit the View menu and select show hidden devices.
From here, remove each instance of the AMD or Nvidia card you see as well as each unknown device. Exit Device Manager and reinstall the latest drivers you can find for your graphics card.
After you install the drivers, reboot and see if you get any different results.
If the above solved your problems and the Graphics Card is now working and is now being properly detected/displayed in Windows Device Manager:
If your graphics card is now being detected by Windows 8.1 in Device Manager, but has a "yellow exclamation" mark (or video drivers are not found or not properly installed or the device is disabled) then install the latest graphics card drivers and proceed with this Step-by-Step Tutorial on how to install AMD Radeon graphics card drivers in Windows 8.1 Pro.
Method 3:
If methods suggested above does not help, I would recommend you to contact Apple/AMD/NVIDIA to get the latest chipset, BIOS, graphics card drivers installed properly.

I have a new Dell Inspiron 15R. I closed it without shutting it down and when I tried to start it up I get a blank screen with my cursor. What's wrong.

You may get a reply here but it's best to post a question in the columns it naturally belongs to; in this case Dell forums.

I had a situation in which my Windows 7 had to be re-installed. Itunes reinstalled perfectly and my ipod synchronize perfectly. I subsequently loaded music. Now when I sync the ipod it does not recognise anything that was added afterwards

Earlier this year my computer suffered a corruption of the video card on my Dell Inspiron. This involved a need to reinstall Windows 7. Following this itunes re-installed and imported my library perfectly. I syncronized my ipod and all seemed well. Since I have downlaoded musiv and aded cd music to the library. I notice that when I sync the ipod (160 GB Classic) it only recognises the songs that were re-installed after the fault. I have tried uninstalling itunes and starting again but it makes no difference.

Imported library from where and how?
The correct way to handle this would have been to copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the backup drive to the new computer.
If anything else was done, it is unlikely that iTunes recognizes the media on the device as being the same media on the computer.

Mac Pro 4,1 w/RAID startup disk not showing

Just purchased used a 2009 Mac Pro which came without installation disks. The startup (and only) HD does not show on the desktop. I discovered that an Apple RAID card was installed and had one disk (the startup disk) connected to it. Apparently the startup disk had been part of a RAID from which all other disks had been removed. Can I simply remove the startup disk from the RAID and install it as a regular drive? Since I don't have the installation disks I don't want to experiment with it until I make a clone. As of now there is only the single drive installed in the system. The system seems to be fine as reported by Tech Tool Pro test suite, which indicated no problems with any component.
The battery on the RAID card needs charging but after several hours did not seem to be going anywhere. Can the battery be replaced?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Do either of you guys have an idea as to why the startup HD does not appear on the desktop? The battery no is indicating fully charged in RAID Utility but it's still conditioning, so I strongly suspect It needs replacement. Still, I'd like to solve this before pulling the card since I'm unfamiliar with the Mac Pro and if I can get things functioning nominally through menu operations so much the better.
There seems to be an anomaly in the RAID Utility setup since no "RAID SETS" nor "VOLUMES" are listed, but there is an HD icon labeled "Bay1" listed under "DRIVES" with State=JBOD, SMART=verified, Status=Good, Interface=SATA. It's a Western Digital Caviar. The RAID Utility help says that only a single drive can be RAID mode JBOD, but if this drive's status is JBOD doesn't that imply that a JBOD RAID set had to have been created before adding the drive to the set and thereby giving it JBOD status? IF this is so then the RAID set must have been intentioally deleted, or perhaps was auto deleted when other drives were pulled. I'm thinking that the drive does not show on the desktop because it still has status JBOD but it's RAID set is gone. Possible? If so, can I create a new JBOD RAID set and assign the drive to it without loosing the OS on the drive? Can I install a new drive without assigning it to a RAID set and then reinstall after pulling the card or will things get messed up if a disk that was once on the RAID card is reinstalled after the card is pulled?
Thanks for any insights.

RAID Utility does not work after Vista upgrade

Hi,
I have a Qosmio G30 with 2 HD 120GB each. After I upgraded to Windows Vista from Windows XP, the Toshiba RAID Utility does not work anymore. In WXp it worked OK, but in Vista there is no way I can mirror the HD. That is, the utility itself work, but the button that should say Mirror, or something like that is not shown. I have set the drives to RAID-1 in the BIOS, but no go.
Is there any way to get the software RAID to work again?

Hi,
just a little question: While installing vista, did you installed the RAID-driver at installation time? Maybe this could be the reason why RAID cannot be activated properly.
Please give some feedback, if you installed the RAID drivers for Vista during the installation..
Cheers

Installed a RAID card in my Dell Inspiron 3847. However, the RAID BIOS does not show up and I cannot install Windows 7 to it.
