computer management

Hi. I have 5 hard disks on my computer (four SATA internal + one external). I was able to get disk management in W7 to work one time. It reported one of my hard disks incorrectly, telling me I have a 2 Teribyte drive when I do not have it. I attempted a reformat (NTFS, default). Anyway, after...

Upon installation of Windows 7 check that your drives are visable by Disk Manager, if not you will have problems as time passes, most notable is the inability to do disk fragmentation either by the built in defragmenter or by programs such as Perfect Disk. The operating System will perform like...

Hi there, So I've been searching through the threads and probably missed what amounts to an easy answer. I just reinstalled Windows 7 after upgrading my mobo, ram and cpu. As it stands my internal Maxtor 300gb hard drive, is showing up in the Bios. In fact it shows up in the Device Manager...

Greetings, this is my first post and I hope it is an easy fix for you, it is not for me :(. I had a problem with Homegroups on my previous installation of Windows 7 that I could only resolve by reinstalling Windows 7 RC Ultimate. My computer has one hard disk that I partitioned to C: and D...

Hi, I previously used an XP computer on the domain wth a name like 'mylaptop'. I replaced the drive and have Windows 7 Ultimate installed and am unable to join the computer 'mylaptop' to the domain. I've done these things... 1. Ran NSLOOKUP to verify I can see the domain controller 2...

Among new features of Windows 7 is Snap (or Smart Window Arrangement), where Snap functionality enables end-user to move a window toward the top of the screen to maximize the window to fill the screen automatically, or drag the window to the edges of the screen to resize and expand the window...

Well when I installed Win7, I decided to put it on my old PC, that I didn't really care about... It was built to run XP... Right when I was installing it, my screen went black, and said, no signal found on my moniter (im was currently using the VGA slot on the mother board) So, I put in some...

I installed W7 but needed to get rid of it (I did the 32-bit and I'm going to get 4 more GB to bump to 8GB of RAM soon so need the 64-bit) but I am stuck with the W7 boot menu and I can't get XP's back! I have a 500GB drive that I had 320 to XP and 50GB then the rest (about 75GB) unallocated. I...

This one has me stumped. Something I did today caused what can I only assume to be programs that need to run as administrator to fail. Anything with that little shield next to it. Examples: Right clicking on My Computer > Manage wont open but typing manage then clicking on Computer Management...

This is the message I get when I try to load a program, or do about anything on W7. I've checked the disk with Diskeeper from the Vista side, and also checked the disk with Computer managemant from the Vista side, all say it is fine. W7 install silky smooth, I let it format before load, it runs...

Hello there, I am running Windows 7 on the partition that I labeled "Win7Beta". The drive letter appears in Windows Vista as "W" drive. (I am running Windows Vista and Windows 7 Beta on the same computer, but different partitions.) Also in Vista, the Local Disk appears as "C" drive and the...
