I included a picture below to show what I mean. I tried adding "iCloud" to the bookmark bar and it replaced two letters with three dots. Since "iCloud" is such a short word, this seems unnecessary. The reason I'm posting here is that this seems to be something specific to Windows 7, not just...

I had a folder that was set as private to prevent network sharing access. It's located on an internal hard drive other then my main C: partition. I re-formatted my C: and did a clean install of Windows 7 64bit. After words I tried access the same folder, and it said I didn't have permission but...

As for local networking speeds, Speedtest.net won't measure that. I did find a program called Performance Test that can test the speeds between a client and a server, but the NAS cant run it. I tried some of the programs mention in this thread, but a few had trouble locating the network device...

I have 1Gb ethernet cables, but they are capped by a router that is stuck at 100Mbps. I went with this router for custom firmware options, so it has it's perked. I'm not sure if my network is even fully taking advantage of the 100mbps though to be honest, and I'm not sure how to test. *edit*...

Thank you for the replies. I've been sorting through them trying to find the right one for me. One thing is that the backup is so huge that its very difficult to do the initial backup. It makes me wish I could copy of folders from my music directory maybe 200GB to my NAS device and then run a...

External disks are noisy for a computer in a bedroom. Plus I use it for other network storage in the home. Im using a Ethernet connection with a 1Gbps port and cable. The drive has the same network speed. The limitation however is that the router caps at 100Mbps. I guess my question was more...

Howdy, I'm backing up about 1.7 TB of data to a network drive, and its taking an extremely long time. I'm running Windows 7 64bit Ultimate. I'm fully up to date. I saw some random article about a hotfix for this issue and downloaded it but I guess I already had it installed as the installation...

Howdy, I've decided I want to use a mail application for Windows 7. The issue is, most of them look horrible. My preference is by far for Mac OS X Lion's Mail app, but i dont know if its possible to get some version of it or customize a mail app to match Lion's layout. I would prefer a stand...

I'm a bit confused. Disk 1 is the C: drive and Disk 0 only has one partition. I've attached another snippet per your request

I've only used windows disk management, no third party partition managers. Disk 0 is the WD problem drive. I'm not sure what you mean by drive 6, only 5 are listed. There aren't any hidden partitions that I'm aware of. The second drive on the list is my OS drive (the SSD).

I have started the PC with the eSata unplugged, there was no change. Attached is my disk management.

SSD is the first listing in the boot order. then a DVD drive. Those are the only two items in the boot order. After following the link provided i determined that the firmware on the SSD is up to date.

The correct disk (SSD) is set as the bootup. One item i may of left out is that when it goes to this cursor screen, it blinks for about 1-2 minutes before booting into the OS on the SSD.

@reghakr I didn't move any files over initially when this occurred. i did a custom install by formatting the drive first then installing W7 @Kemical yes i did a new install on the SSD. the SSD previous didn't have an OS on it, just game files. I can try the re-install, but honestly I dont want...

I followed your instructions. Windows repair found no error.
