Hello,Try this 1You might have deleted the 48.6 GB partition. That's the reason its showing you a free space. In order to access that free space, you need to create a logical drive with that free space. Right-click on 48.6 GB free space - Select the option 'New Simple Volume' and then follow the onscreen instructions.Once that logical drive gets created and got assigned with a drive letter, don't make any changes by adding any files to that partition.
You can use the free recovery application 'Recuva' to recover the files. Click on the below hyperlink 'Recuva' and download it.Install it and perform deep scan.Recover as much as data using it.Incase if you still need to recover your important data which is less than a 1GB then let me know.Good Luck. Hello there, I was just wondering if you could help me, I cant access my file from my USB when I plug it in my PS3, so what I did is I tried to follow instruction in the internet to fix it. It was telling me that the file system should not be NTFS. Following the instructions, it says delete the 'volume partition' something which I did and since then my external hard drive didnt show up anymore. I can only see the Drive C & D.
Although I could see it under the device and printers but not under the Drives and I cant access it.
Hard Drive Disappears Windows 7 Download
15 January 2018 at 09:25Correcting or Changing Windows 10 system folders2018-01-15We need to break this task up into it’s three component problems.1) icon 2) folder location and 3) folder nameI think the best approach is the understanding that the key is to first look for the icons. If in This PC you have the icons for each of Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures and Videos, then assume these icons are correct even if everything else is wrong. 16 March 2018 at 19:53Not sure if your tutorial is what I need. I tried copying (dragging) a very large (30GB) “Music Archive” folder (containing many other folders) from a portable Iomega hard drive (F:), onto a thumb drive (actually a MP3 player).
Simply place the staff in your right hand and start thumping away! No Extra Content is required for this Mod.Ever wondered why a Mage would be using a staff to cast spells but, when the enemy gets up close, they have to pull out another weapon instead of just clubbing them round the head with the perfectly good staff in their hands? Well, I have, it’s always bugged me, so I created this Mod so that you can use a Mage staff as a quarterstaff, block their attacks and beat your enemies senseless with it.With this Mod installed, if you equip a Mage staff in your left hand, you’ll be able to use it as normal, but, if you equip it in your right hand, it will allow you to wield it as a fully functional two-handed melee weapon. . Skyrim melee staff mod.
Nothing happened. When I Explored the F: drive, the “Music Archive” folder was gone. I found a new folder “Music Archive (G:)” located on my C: drive in the computer (Win7 64bit). I’m pretty sure all of my music files have not been erased, since I would have heard the drive working to erase 30GB. But searching the drives would not locate any of the files. Can you help or point me in the right direction?.
I take it you don't remember what you typed from the CMD prompt? It would be most helpful to know.Usually when you lose a partition, you have to recreate it and whatever was on it gets lost. How do you prevent this from happening?
In a word BACKUP. Sooner or later this kind of thing happens to all of us with computers. Using a computer without backup is like driving a car without a spare tire or insurance. One thing I would try, assuming you don't have backup, would be to go to Start - Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management. This will give you a map of your partitions. If the old D: is still there but without a drive letter, you can right-click it and assign a drive letter to it. If you're lucky enough for this to work, you may be able to recover its contents.` When you've gotten your system back like you want it, I urge you to get yourself an external hard drive and a good 3rd party backup program.
Hard Drive Keeps Disappearing Windows 7
You can set it up to do everything automagically at the time and frequency of your choice. 1 TB external hard drives are about $65 these days and a really good FREE backup program is the Easeus Todo Backup Free. That can save you a lot of time and frustration the next time something like this happens. Sooner or later it happens to all computers for one reason or another.
Hard Drive Icon Missing Windows 7
I cleaned my computer, possibly then disconnected a Hard-drive.If I start Windows, this drive works normally for about 5-20 minutes(If at all), then it 'disappears'.Interestingly, if I check the Bios after a restart then(After I used Windows), this drive is not listed in the Bios.While if I switch off the computer for some time and restart the computer in Linux(It is Dual-Boot), no problem, even after many hours. So my impression is that Windows 7 somehow switches off this drive(I set Energy-options on drives therefore on 999 minutes).I have all the updates&patches and I have been using this computer that way since about 2011(I had similar problems in the past, they usually stopped rather quickly, I thought it was about cables, but as one can see this time, this drive 'disappears' underWindows, Linux has no problem).
I installed Windows 7 x64 on my HTPC and have found that after resuming from S3 sleep, my media drive (1TB WD 10EACS) is missing. The drive is not seen in Disk Management and is not discovered when I scan for new hardware. The only way to get the hard drive back is to reboot.
Power and data cables are secure. This exact build did not have this issue when running Vista. Win7 is the only change.
If I enter S3 and then immediately wake the system the HDD is still there. The problem seems to occur when the HTPC is in standby for a longer period. Like overnight.This is on a GA-MA69GM-S2H motherboard with the SB600 SATA controller running the latest drivers in AHCI mode. I switched to IDE mode and the problem has not occurred for two days. (/crosses fingers)This is a critical flaw for HTPC use since S3 sleep is a must. My HTPC missed several TV recordings because when it woke up my media drive was gone and I'd like to prevent this from happening again. (This really reduces the WAF!)I posted on the TechNet forum with others having the same problem here:I thought I'd open the topic for discussion here at Tom's since the forum here is more robust.
Nancy drew and the hidden staircase 2019. Anyone else observing this behavior in Windows 7? Does anyone know of a fix for AHCI mode?Please share your stories/experiences. I am also witnessing this, with a 1TB drive as well.
ONLY my 1TB drive. I have two other 320GB drives and a DVD drive that this does not happen to.Just googled it to try to find an answer, and came to your postThis was also happening with the Win7x64 RC. I was really hoping it was an RC bug, and that the final would fix it.
But it has not. My experience is EXACTLY as you have written. If you wake it up after a short period, the drive will be there. Longer period, no.Have you tried IDE mode?So far, I haven't seen the problem with IDE mode but I really do need the AHCI hot-swap feature as I run an eSATA port from the onboard SATA controller and it's a pain to not have that enabled. I too have this exact issue, and it too is my media drive. This is on Windows 7 final (not RC)I have five(!) drives:System: Seagate 320GBMusic: Seagate 500 GBKeep: Seagate 1TBRecordings: WD 1TB.
This is the one that disappears.Storage: WD 1TB. This one seems to have a bad controller - I'm still diagnosing it.So it isn't the fact it is a 1TB drive.
Maybe that it is a Western Digital drive???My next attempt will be to set the Hard Drives to sleep 1 minute before the computer goes to suspend. I took another look into device manager and noticed that my SATA controller actually was not using the ATI driver, but rather the default Windows 7 driver. Wpa2-patch (kb893357 fur windows xp/sp1.
Last night I switched back to AHCI mode and manually installed the ATI driver (I had to use an older RAID driver from the motherboard website). I put my HTPC to sleep last night.This morning I brought it out of S3 and my media drive was still there. So possibly this is a problem with the Windows 7 SATA driver?Posters having the same problem- check what driver your SATA controller is using. I was certain I had installed the latest ATI driver when I installed the chipset drivers. Perhaps the Windows 7 SATA driver is given higher priority.13thmonkey- my BD drive is on the same SATA controller but it's never disappeared on me.
I had a SATA HDD that would disappear after waking from S3. This problem started with a clean install of Windows 7 and a switch to AHCI.
It would reappear if I rebooted or did another S3 cycle. Very repeatable.
I fixed it by installing and running Intel Matrix Storage Manager from here: DescriptionEVGA x58 SLISapphire Vapor-X 4890Processor Intel Core i7 920 DOWD Velociraptor 300GB System Drive2 Samsung 1Tb 720 HD Data DrivesLG CH08LS10K 8X SATA Blu-Ray Combo2 SAMSUNG SH-S223 22X SATA DVDG.SKILL Trident DDR3 2000 6GBWindows 7 64 bit Home Premium. I'm having the exact same problem as you guys: one of my media drives disappears after resuming from standby. I've tried changing its SATA port, swapping its SATA port with with the port of one of the working drives, etc. Same problem, as if the problem is with that particular HDD and not the ports or anything.
It's a Seagate 500Gig drive, (too lazy to go fetch the model number).I'm running Windows 7 64-bit from an official disc (not a RC), and when I installed it I never installed any Motherboard drivers since everything worked fine right away. It detected all my motherboard components and they're working fine. Perhaps it'll fix the issue if I manually install my Asus SATA drivers? I'm going to give it a try. HiI thought once drives were installed in AHCI it was not possible to switch back to IDE.I've got exactly the same problemIt is using it as a second drive where it will not wake up. ( I keep programs on C: and all data on ESamsung HD103UJ 1TB DriveAsus M4A79XTD EVO Motherboard, I'm sure is not the problemI've tried Maxtor Maxline II 250GB and Hitachi 0A34515 500Gb on the system without any other changes and they work fine.I'll try using IDE and see if the works.As the common factor seems to be 1TB Drives, Win 7, I think there must be a bug in Win& SATA DriverttfnDerek. I only installed one.
I'd go with the one that has the latest date. Make sure you request the correct x86 or x64 for 32-bit or 64-bit, respectively.As of today, the latest file is Fix306215 dated 19-Jan-2010.the hotfix seems to be fixing the problem if you get STOP errors waking up - but since you could wake up your computer, and only then you lost secondary HD(s), you must not have run into the STOP error as my understanding is you see those STOP errors in blue screen of death. If this is true ( that you hadn't run into STOP errors waking up the computer), you can still install the hotfix and are seeing that disappeared HD after wakeup no longer lost?Please confirm.
