Computer Can't Boot / Can't Seem To Read Main Partition
Dec 13, 2015My computer froze during a Windows update, and I had to force a shut down, which really messed up my computer.
My computer was stuck in a boot loop, so I attempted to reinstall windows 10 onto it. At around 3% it crashed again, and since then has been really messed up.
If it tries to boot normally, it no longer gets stuck in a boot loop, but now just instantly crashes to blue screen, saying a required device can't be accessed (error 0xc000000f).
I tried to boot into the windows 10 install disk to try and run chkdsk or attempt other recovery tasks, but it crashes after a few seconds of being on the menu, saying to search for FAT FILE SYSTEM to try and fix the error.
I downloaded gparted onto a USB and ran it. It gave me this error: [URL]
Installation :: Can't Read Page And Slow Etsy Online Store
Aug 3, 2015I keep getting a "Can't Reach this Page" tab at top. Also, I have an Etsy On-Line store, which worked perfectly until I upgraded to Win 10. Now it is sooooo slow to load anything, switch between pages, etc, (plus this "Can't Read Page" pops up). I ran a SFC/scannow and it said everything checked out fine.
View 3 RepliesDrivers/Hardware :: Drives Marked Read Only
Sep 23, 2015I have several hard drives on my PCs; some are physical, some are partitions. In every PC I've upgraded, W10 marks these as RO. I go through the ritual of setting permissions to Full and marking RW, but occasionally a drive will revert to RO. I can't find a Take Ownership option for drives, only folders. Am I looking in the wrong place?

This is the error I get in Windows 10:

So I can read and write with Mac OS, but not with Windows. In the device manager of Windows, I cannot see the device either.

Feb 10, 2016I have a program that I wanted to install into my Win 10 Pro Machine (64 Bit) and have found that the disk can not be read by the DVD/CD-ROM Drive. I also tried it in another Windows 10 Computer (64 Bit) and it also can't read the disk.The disk worked fine under Windows 7, in both the same computers. The drive works as it reads other CD/DVD's.
The disk is good as it works perfect in an other Windows 7 (32 Bit) and Vista computers (32 Bit). Computer is up to date with builds etc.
Drivers/Hardware :: Cannot Read USB Drive (The Parameter Is Incorrect)
Aug 1, 2015I am using am iMac with Bootcamp running Win 7. I have just upgraded to Win 10 with no problems. Except I can now not read my 2 x WD USB external drives. I am getting "the parameter is incorrect" error. In disk management it says the drives are active but RAW. If I connect the 2 drives to any other machine either Win 7 or 10 they are fine, so no fault with the drives. These 2 drives have always been used on the PC in question when running Win 7.
I have tried changing the drive names etc but still cannot read.
My only solution may be to connect the drives to another PC, back up, then format the drives?
Drivers/Hardware :: Cannot Find Partition
Nov 1, 2015I recently installed Windows 10 on my Samsung Series 7 Chronos (NP700Z5A-A01DX). The HDD is a Hitachi HTS547575A9E384 which I originally thought was a hybrid HDD with 8gb ssd partition, but I'm not 100% sure.Anyway, with Windows 7 the computer came back from sleep in 1 or 2 seconds, now it's much slower. I've followed all the instruction online for reinstalling ExpressCache etc. but I get the error message "SSD not fund, please create a partition manually".Running DISKPART, List Disk I only have a one disk showing.

Aug 29, 2015I have installed Windows 10 on my C: (SSD) but D: (Regular HDD) is super slow and i think it has something to do with admin rights and stuff.

What might be causing this? Had no problems on Windows 7.

However I can not repeat that and instead I keep getting it split in to 3 partitions?
I only want 2 partitions 1 x 1TB + 1 x 2 TB

Drivers/Hardware :: Slow USB Transfer Rate
Dec 24, 2015My lappie has USB3 ports. Or course I know the clock down to whatever device you attach. I have a 500G Seagate External rated at USB2. Meaning my transfers should be 480 megabits per second (mbps), or 60 megabytes per second (MBps), correct? So why am I getting half that speed if I am lucky. Not plugged into a USB hub or anything, straight into the port. IS there some setting I am missing?

Drivers/Hardware :: How To Set USB Flash Drive Partition As Inactive
Feb 10, 2016I have a USB flash drive which for some reason is formatted with an active partition.
I usually use Minitool Partition Wizard to set a partition as inactive but for some reason it doesn't work on this flash drive. I also tried booting from the Partition Wizard boot disk but that won't set the partition inactive either. I even deleted the partition and reformatted the flash drive but it popped up as active again!
How can I force the partition to be set inactive? Note it's quite an old USB flash drive so I'm wondering if there something in the hardware which stops it being set inactive?
Drivers/Hardware :: Can Remove EFI Partition From Non System Disk
Aug 17, 2015I have a drive that I want to use as a backup drive for a Windows 10 machine. The problem is the old drive has a boot partition on it that is making Windows 10 go nuts every time I plug it in. If I wait until after the machine boots and then plug it in via USB adapter then I can get to the files but I want to install it inside the machine permanently.A photo of the Disk Manager is below. How do I (or should I) remove that EFI System Partition? The Disk Manager won't let me do it.

Drivers/Hardware :: How To Partition 1TB External Hard Drive
Feb 10, 2016I purchased a 1TB hard drive to place media files on it so that I could plug it into my DVD player which has a USB port. I made sure to format the hard drive to Fat32. What I can surmise is that the 1TB hard drive is too big for the DVD player to read. I plug it in and it says Device Not Supported. But I've successfully plugged in an external card reader and used a 16GB SD card to place files on and it reads them fine. So I'm thinking it's the size of the drive that is the issue.
I might have to partition the hard drive into two partitions. One partition 16gb and then the other partition with whatever is left. They did say they were not sure if there was a way to set it up so the 16gb Partition is what is recognized first when plugged into the DVD player. This way I would transfer movies I want to watch to the 16 GB partition, and transfer them over.
Now when I search hard disk partitions in Windows 10 the manager comes up and I can see the hard drive, but I can not change the size to partition it. It's grayed out. Is there a freeware program that works with Windows 10 that will split the hard drive into two partitions in sizes I specify, and make sure that the 16GB partition is the first one loaded or seen? And if I set it up that way when I plug it into my computer will the computer see both partitions?
Drivers/Hardware :: Option To Increase Partition Size
Feb 10, 2016Had 8.1 then downloaded 10, unfortunately when I originally installed 8.1 I made my C partition too small and it's almost full all the time.
Is there anyway to increase the size?
Also I want to reset my PC right now since it's gotten extremely sluggish for some odd reason and I can't see any thumbnails for many things despite trying loads of stuff suggested on the web.
When resetting will I get any option to change the partition size?

This happened at the same time on my two HP laptops but not sure what could cause it. Maybe some Windows update? I do not remember installing any new apps. I would like to remove this disk from the list of available disks.
