Satellite A50 - After HDD exchange I have the same capacity

Hello, I just changed the old 40GB HDD in A50 to a new 60GB HDD.
Before I changed it I used True Image to make a backup file of the old HDD so that I can recover everything to the new HDD. However, when I did this the HDD got everything on the old HDD but the capacityis changed to 40GB..! I then use the recovery CD on the new HDD and hoping the capacity can be changed back to 60GB, but it can't...
However, when I went to disk management I can see there is another parition (black in colour) with the remaining space, but it is not shown in my computer..
Does anyone know how can I get the remaining space back?
Many thanks.

Hello
Normally if you clone a HDD you can also change the partition sizes. I also use Acronis True Image and if I clone a HDD I will be asked for every partition size.
Check this again!!
However, now you should delete all existing partitions and then create a new one with the full 60GB capacity. For this you can use a Microsoft XP disk for example.
After this you can start to install the Windows using Toshiba recovery disk. Then you should have the full 60GB capacity.

  • Satellite A100-237: I do not have the Catalyst Control Center after driver installation

    Hello,
    I use a Satellite A100-237 laptop. 1.83 GHz Core Duo, Ati Mobility Radeon X1600 512MB Hypermemory, 1.5GB DDR2 RAM.
    My laptop now seems to use only the own 256 MB RAM (Graphic card's own RAM).
    I purchased Need for Speed Carbon and installed it to my laptop.
    When I tried to open the game, a blue screen appeared for less than 1 seconds, and than system restarted. Windows said that that was a critical error and a driver stopped Windows XP to operate, therefore system is restarted.
    I searched in the net for this problem and, people said that, when they updated the driver the problem is solved.
    I downloaded Display driver 8.241 (download file name: display_xp-8241.zip) from toshiba-europe.com.
    Driver installed but while installing ATI Catalyst Control Center, at a point the installation process stoped continuing. I had to end the task after a while.
    It said that driver is installed and system must be restarted.
    Now the game works, thats not the problem, however I do not have the Catalyst Control Center. (Where I recently use it for connecting other screens to my laptop)
    How can I solve this problem?
    Sorry for long letter,
    Thanks for helps.

    You may run the driver installer again, use the custom installation option and select Catalyst Control Center only. Alternatively, you may remove the entire driver and try re-installing again. I suggest you also download the notebook driver package from ATI's website instead of Toshiba, as their drivers are usually more up-to-date (although it might be less safe to use them, I don't know).
    And BTW, I have the same notebook and I have failed to see an option to set the machine to use the VRAM *only* instead of borrowing from RAM whenever necessary. Any ideas?

  • Slow USB on Satellite A50 after format

    Hello,
    I hope somebody here can help me...
    After some years of collecting 'garbage' on my Satellite A50, today I decided to format the harddrive and start with a clean install of Windows XP.
    Before this I had both a wireless network and an external harddisk connected via USB and both worked just fine.
    Now, after the clean install, Windows keeps telling me I have fast USB hardware connected to slow USB ports and under 'Hardware' there is an USB-controller which is not properly installed. However I can not find correct drivers for it anywhere!
    I know it must be possible to update the USB to 2.0 because up till yesterday everything worked just fine.
    Can anyone help me please?
    It would be much appreciated so thanks in advance!

    Did you install the whole MS updates??
    My brother has had a same problem. He has connected a scanner to the computer and the message has appeared because of the USB 2.0 issue.
    He asks me for a help. I have updated simply the WinXP, installed all QFEs and service packs.
    This was the key
    Check it.
    By the way; please be sure that the chipset utility was installed

  • How do I install a new Exchange account with the same address as my old Exchange account and have my bcc mail not go to the old account?

    I have an iPhone 5s running iOS8 and an iPad, up to date.  I have recently changed my mail server but not my email address.  My "old" mail account is an Exchange account and I have also set up a "new" Exchange account with the same address but with the new mail server details.  When I receive outside, third party emails they are routed correctly to the "new" Exchange account but when I bcc myself or receive other emails from any account with my domain name the emails are routed to my "old" Exchange account.  I have changed the default account settings to the "new" Exchange account.  Also, if I send myself an email from my laptop, through the new mail service provider, it is routed correctly on my laptop but incorrectly on my iPhone and iPad.  It appears as though the Apple products have cached my email address and routing and won't look to pick up the new mail server details. I don't see anything in the mail account settings or contacts that allows me to refresh or clear the cache.  The result is I now have mail in 2 accounts. If I can get the misdirected mail from the odl account to the new one I will then make the old account inactive.  Anyone have any ideas on this one?
    Thanks in advance for your time and ideas,
    DAA

    Can you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?

    Your advice did not help me. I also installed 10.7.4 combo but the situation is the same.

I have the same problem in both my mac mini late 2009 and mac book air 2010? Is it a problem of 10.7.4 update? I have to solve this problem and how can i return to 10.7.3 if my last backup was not with 10.7.3???thank you for your kind collaboration...

  • After the newest update, i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
    As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
    I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
    Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
    TIA

  • I have an ipod touch 4th Gen that everything was working perfectly. After the last update of iOs5, the battery have charge 20 minutes. Even after the correction of the iOS 5.0.1 the battery have the same 20 minutes. What I can do?

    Same thing here. Try putting the brightness down all the way (its hard to see at first but you will get used to it) and one more thing is that close all you open apps. So to do that you have to click the home button twice (after you put your passcode in) and you will see some apps in the bottom. Hold it until there is a red - sign. click all of them so they go away. This does not delete your apps it just makes your ipod better.

  • I've installed Flip4Mac WMV in Lion and when I try to listen to audio in some sites, it starts playing and after about 0.5 seconds it starts playing again. So, I have the same thing playing with a delay... What is happening and how to fix it?

    I've installed Flip4Mac WMV in Lion and when I try to listen to audio in some sites, it starts playing and after about 0.5 seconds it starts playing again. So, I have the same thing playing with a delay... What is happening and how to fix it? Is there any other way to play theese kinds of files without using Flip4Mac WMV?

    Use Flash Media Server to stream the files.......set up a timer and have all three of them play at once....and have a button switch the streams depending upon which stream you want to play.....and wallah......
    you can also capture the stream.time from the video playing and resume from that point on the other videos as well....havent done this theoretically so I dont know how smooth the transistion between streams will be....but it can be done....
    plus u may have to use double buffering techniques to make sure it starts up right away......

    Hello Albert, see how many of these you can answer...
    See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
    In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

    Well!
    If you have ThunderBolt, I would go with such for an External Working Drive, spinning platter or SSD depending on your budget
    This does not have to be huge just big enough to house your most current Jobs
    Once the Current Job is put to rest I would move it to a larger multi bay hard drive unit, USB or FireWire nothing fancy, no RAID, set up as one single Disk
    This would only be accessed when something is needed from a past Job so the connection does not have to be speedy
    The Drobo would be relegated to Vaults and backups
    You can set up a Vault on the Drobo to back up the External Working Library and then Reconnect it when you have moved the Library over to the other Enclosure
    This has worked for me pretty smoothly for a long while, but I have found over the years that one can not assume all people work in the same manner! :-)

    I have the same problem.  After the upgrade, my wifi is greyed out, and the battery won't hold a charge long. I reset all the settings, tried all the things suggested by Apple, but it didn't work.  I took the phone to Verizon, but they said they can't fix it, go to Apple
    I made an appointment at the Genius bar, where the staff was incredibly rude and dismissive. A representative told me that the wi-fi is broken and I would need to buy a new phone for $200, because mine is out of warranty. I'm due for an upgrade in a few months, so I'm not going to pay $200 for another 4S now.  I'm also not going to buy any more Apple products.  Their upgrade caused this problem, and they are not standing behind their producet.
