[Solved] Windows 8 not seeing drives

I'm trying to install Windows 8 to achieve a clean install with no bloatware. I made my Win 8 bootable usb. When I get to the Windows setup where it ask you where you want to install Windows? All that it shows is my USB drive. Doesn't show my RAID or my 1TB drive.
I'm running a GT70-2OD-039US, its the Dragon Edition GTX 780m one with the 3 x SSD in a RAID0.
What I'm I missing?

Nevermind, I got it. I just needed to load the RAID drivers at the Windows Setup Also, looking in the bios, it said 1 of 3 of my SSD had error. I think that is what has been giving me issues for the last few days. All is well now!!

Since you can only sync your iPod with one computer at a time, you'll need to copy the contents currently on your iPod to your new iTunes library first. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to accomplish this task.

Hi Marcus25,
Sorry to inform you, the Scanjet 5370c is not supported on Windows 7:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03403550&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...
The driver listed on the HP site is intended for another model (Scanjet 5590) and seems to be wrongly pposted for your scanner.
I have reported this issue in order to get it corrected..
Altthough it is not officially supported, you may try the 3rd party VueScan application which seems to support your scanner wthout the need to install any drivers on the computer:

Windows XP not seeing iPhone

Device manager not seeing iPhone. Problem began after upgrade to iTunes 8.0.2.20. USB ports working with all other devices. Computer sees iPod nano as does iTunes. Have uninstalled and reinstalled all iTunes components. usbaapl driver appears in DriveStore but because phone is not recognized cannot point hardware device wizard to the DriveStore folder. iPhone working normally otherwise.
Any/all suggestions appreciated.
Thanks, L. Edwards

Windows XP now sees a new piece of hardware but thinks it is a printer.
I can point it to:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_246F92BBD6449C86FC3F3F28C40D59AC1F69C558
It searches but comes up with "Cannot Install this Hardware" because the wizard cannot find the necessary software.
I am thinking that I may have a corrupt/wrong driver. Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
L. Edwards

Upgraded from vista to windows 7 not seeing music list

I upgraded from vista to windows 7. When I sync my iPhone 4 I am not seeing my music listed nor my apps in the list. I had backed up my entire computer to my external hard drive and copied everything over to iTunes. But not showing up in any lists when I connect my phone???? Any ideas?

Hi,
I'm am used to working on Mac's but u don't think my advice will hurt.
iTunes reads your hard drive for songs and compiles a song list for them.
It then stores this data as your ituneslibrary.plist file.
In the file drop down menu you should have an option to select library.
Try reelecting your iTunes library icon and then it should reload your iTunes with playlists and play counts etc

Windows xp not seeing mac mini during migration

Hi all,
I just set up a new mac mini for my in-laws, fast-forwarding them through 15 years of technology. However, the migration from Win XP is not as seamless as Apple promises. After all the installation, the mini saw the PC, but the Migration Assistant on the PC does not see the mini. What is there to do?
Some details:
--- I verified on my router that both computers are on my LAN.
--- If it matters, the Win XP and thus the Migration Assistant is in Hungarian, as is the Lion installation. Everything is up-to-date.
--- I tried a reboot on both machines.
--- I shut down on all firewalls for the migration.
--- There is no apparent security lockdown on my router that would cause the trouble. Apart from uPNP being turned off. Is that a problem? The mac saw the PC twice...
--- Actually, after the reboot, the mini did not see the PC anymore, and before the reboot, it could see two instances of the PC, but picking either did not help as the PC was still only "looking for the mac", with an endless progress bar.
I am happy to try any networking or Windows setup, I'm just out of ideas.
Thanks!
Laszlo

Thanks I figured it out.

Windows users not seeing my attachments, and other issues

After being an Entourage users for years, I finally switched to Mail/Address Book/iCal/.mac combo when Leopard came out. After using Mail for a few weeks, I have some questions:
1. In Entourage, I could paste an image from the Clipboard (say, a screenshot via Command-Shift-Control-4) into a message, and everyone could see it. When I do that now, none of my Windows friends can see the image. All they get is a blank box with a red x in it. What are the methods in Mail that work for sending attachments?
2. If I get an email from someone, I want to know if they're already in my Address Book. Is there a way to do that? If I right-click on the person's email address, a drop down says "Add to..." and it will add them, even if they're already in my Address Book, which leads to duplicates and even triplicates. I find myself duplicating contacts virtually every day. In Entourage, if you clicked "Add to Address Book" and it that person was already in the Address book, it would toss up a window, saying that this address was already in there, do you want to view it, or add to existing contact.
3. No categories. If I get an email from someone that treats me with familiarity, but I don't recognize them, there's no way to go into my address book and tell what relationship I have with that contact. Client? Acquaintence? Purchaser? Relative I only met once 6 years ago? This is because there seems to be no way to attach a category to each contact. Once you have over 2000 contacts, it becomes difficult to remember what each one is there for. Did they purchase a product on my site? Or are they a vendor? Someone I met at a party? There is the Mail Group function, but those act more like Smart folders. But those groups aren't attached to the actual contact, so when viewing the All Contacts, there's no way of telling who's who. Even if there were simply a way to color each contact, those colors could act as a category, and one could sort by them. This is my major concern right now with Mail over Entourage. Any ideas on how you are handling this?
4. There doesn't seem to be any way to grab the entire mailing address in one Copy. You can highlight/copy the address, street and zip, and paste that into, for instance, a Dymo label, but you have to go back and grab the name separately. Any way to completely grab the mailing contact information?
5. If I search for, say, "Comcast" in the Address Book, I logically get all of the contacts that have "comcast.com" in their email address. But there should be a way where it gives precedent to the actual Comcast company contact, instead of having to scroll through hundreds of contacts to find the actual company. I'm finding this for many companies that happen to also have their name in the Notes section of many contacts. I guess I don't have a question on this point, just pointing out something.
Thanks for any tips.

It would help us help you if you posted the URL to the html file that holds the QuickTime file.
A QT MPEG-4 file should be viewable on a Mac or PC running QuickTime version 6, or higher. A 36 minute movie that is not set to "fast start" would require the entire file be downloaded prior to playback and that would take a few hours over my pitiful Texas dial-up connection.

Windows update - Not seeing all types of updates when checking

My problem is at one time, our 2008 R2 servers were all in a separate OU as all other machines and we had a GP for all of our Windows 7 machines to get updates from our WSUS. Well, someone applied that policy to the whole domain which made the server
OU inherit the WSUS policy. Before I was in the position to manage our servers, previous admins would disable the policy, perform a gpupdate /force on each server and then download and install updates.
I fixed this in group policy so that the servers can go out to the Windows update site and get updates but I am not sure they are getting everything they need. For example, I have an Exchange 2010 server which needs some security patches based on a
scan with MBSA. One id UR 8 for Exchange 2010 SP2 and one for SP2 for MS Office 2010 filter pack. They are both security which I would think should show up when checking for updates. I also have some servers that are missing SQL 2008 security
updates along with Visual C++ 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 security updates. They aren't showing either.
Is there a way to check on each server where it is going to check for updates? I have looked in some places in the registry but I can't find anything. Below is a couple of screen shots to show what it looks like on the Exchange server.
David Hood

Have you enabled "get extra updates from Microsoft" ? (this enables product other than Windows, to get updates)
If you are seeing updates for Windows, but not updates for Exchange nor SQL - then it's likely that those updates are not being published to WU/MU.
DUH!!!, I did a face palm when I saw that first line. Didn't even cross my mind to look at the log. I did find where it is going to the Microsoft site to search for updates.
Nevermind!!! Had a brain fart. I just saw the link at the bottom of the Windows update page on the server where is says "Get updates for other Microsoft products. Find out more". I clicked the "Find our more" link and
it took me to the Microsoft site to install Microsoft update. I did that, it ran another check, and BOOM, all my updates are there. I spent a while on this issue this morning and couldn't find anything. I feel a little stupid now, haha.
Thanks for the ultra fast responce though. It helped me alot.

Windows does not recognize driver for pci-4461

Hello,I am currently running windows xp with labview 7.0 on my computer. Recently trying purchased and trying to install PCI-4461 Audio Analyzer PC card. I downloaded the latest driver 9.0.2 off the NI website. After the install I verified the driver exist by using the Measurement & Automation tool. However, window does not recognize any driver for the hardware. When I point it to the directory where the driver is "suppose" to exist, windows gives me an error message saying that the driver does not exist or is corrupted. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. Has anyone ran into this problem and can give me some advise? I know that the version on DAQmx 9.0.2 is not compatible with the version of labView I am running. However it should not affect windows from locating and installing hardware. Thank you,Ruth

Hi Ruth,
Did you install the PCI-4461 card in your computer before or after you installed the DAQmx 9.0.2 drivers? It would be best to install the drivers first and then the card. Windows XP will pop up the New Hardware Wizard, saying it detected new hardware. Click Next, and then to Search for Drivers Automatically. Do not try to navigate and select the appropriate driver folder. As long as the drivers are installed correctly Windows will be able to find the correct driver automatically.
You can also remove the PCI-4461 card and try it in a different PCI slot. This will cause the new hardware wizzard to appear on the next restart.

Drive Bay "A" Not Seeing Drives

Power Mac G5 (June 2004) Dual 2.5GHz 10.4.11. I've had two internal 250 gig drives since purchase. I thought drive "A" had crashed, as did the Genius at Apple Store Bar. It appears it's not the drive but the bay. Could it be cables, or the board? I'm working from drive "B" exclusively. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, I tried swapping drives. I wish I could swap cables but they are routed through the casing and it looks like a major disassembly of the case to make that happen. Sorry it took so long to respond. Thanks, Alan

Windows 7 not seeing server

I can not see the OS X server on the network with Win7 computers.
It is on the same workgroup but does not show up at all.

By default, the client will indeed attempt a renewal of the IP lease if half of the lease time has passed. but there are many conditions where a new lease is required. Think any situation where the status of the NIC changed. Standby/sleep/hibernation/off,
network cable unplugged, connecting via wireless, nic power mangement,...).
Also note the lease time starts when the clent receives the IP, not when the incident occurs. So there is alrge chance that when having issues with the dhcp server, some clients are about to expire their lease soon and loose connectivity.
You should not rely on a long lease time as an avilability solution for DHCP (only).

Windows 7 not seeing Radeon driver

Today did my first Boot Camp install of Windows 7 (32-bit) onto my iMac. All went smoothly except one thing: Windows is using its own generic graphics driver and apparently is not recognizing the Mac's ATI Radeon HD5670 board. Result: wrong resolution and aspect ratio, and I can't run software that requires the Radeon. I've reinstalled all drivers twice, and Boot Camp keeps telling me everything is fine.
Under Device Manager I'm seeing nothing except Microsoft's generic driver.
Any clue?

Go to ATI and download the latest Catalyst.
You will probably need to install the existing device driver and program.
