My windows 7 ultimate will not restart. will this disc repair that? I have no image of previous. no backup. I can go in the back door after about 45 minutes and then it works great. If, however I restart, will not restart.

Didn't do me any good. It only provided the same options already available on my unbootable drive (hard disk check, command prompts, etc.). Much better off to use your windows install disk (if you have it) and choose the repair option.

As I answer, remember... my hard drive got wiped. Make certain you switch your hard drive to "slave" status if you haven't already. Otherwise, you should be OK.

Hey Mark, well the funny thing is that I sent this thing back. It just wouldn't format. No matter what I did, or cable I used it didn't work. It also had problems with using the firewire cable. I think I got it to recognize the HD ONCE, and then it said it would take almost 17 hours to format it. I honestly think something was wrong with the drive itself, but I didn't want another one to try. I figured I'd wait.

Yes, the system I was using already had Win 7 with the original drive not working. I didn't have any issue replacing this drive under Win 7 at all. The OS recognized the drive right away. Hope this helps!

yes, i've mounted in ubuntu without problems. in fact, when it suddenly failed, windows 7 cant access it, but ubuntu saved me, and there i have te option to recover my files.

I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit but not Ultimate 64. The EX4 16TB works fine with Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit without a glitch.

That's interesting. I just kept mine in a box, but that was fortunate because when the new drive failed they were able to retrieve my data (again) from my original drive. I would think a computer place that does repairs could help you.Sounds like a great idea, good luck.

Did you turn it on? Is it fully plugged into the drive? I had an issue with an older ISA/EISA drive not getting fully plugged in. If you are using one of the 3.5" drives you need to check to verify that it is powering up. No power means it is not working. If you hear the drive power up (you can hear it spin up) and it is fully connected is it making any other sounds like clicking? If so the drive itself may be dead. There are several tricks to try if that is the case but without more details of the issue I can't help much more.

Too late to do you any good, but just so you know your post did not go down a bottomless well, I can tell you that it immediately was recognized and processed by my new windows 7, 64 bit, and, at least to date has manifest none of the problems some mention (going to "sleep", needing additional power, etc, ) It has worked as rapidly as I would expect, and is very simple to use, both as a supplemental hard drive and for storage. Whether or not it has only three more minutes to work before breaking down, I cannot tell.

Hi Jun,Yes I have... and erased it very quickly!Here's what happened. I installed the programme as instructed. It worked beautifully... until I tried to start up one day and my PC replied it had to do something as apparently I had switched it off incorrectly... Usually this is quite harmless and windows starts up without any problems... but you've guessed it: not when the system has been crypted. After having tried everything, I had to use the Rescuedisk I had made to decrypt my laptop... which took a cool 26 hours!So... I have been cured and removed TrueCrypt as soon as the laptop worked again! Hi Jun,Yes I have... and erased it very quickly!Here's what happened. I installed the programme as instructed.

Ronald,Thanks for your interest in GoGet Computers!Unfortunately, Microsoft has changed its policy and does not supply us with extra Windows 7 reboot discs, so unfortunately we can no longer distribute them to our customers. However, we create a partition on our computers that allows you to select the option to perform a system restore from the start up screen. I hope this answered your question.

I have had no issues using Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Although different hardware setups may have issues. Just install the drivers from the disc contained and you should be good to go!

Honestly I was disappointed to the point that I rarely use the laptop now. I use my desktop computer for everything I do on the web, and if I have time then will just uninstall Win8 and install Win7 instead. I'm hoping that it is not a hardware issue though, as it is already 3 months since I purchased mine.

It is now running on ultimate 7 , but would like to restore it back to windows 8. Do you have original 8 setup for a Toshiba Satellite c855d-s5307. It has a 500 Hard Drive, and 8rams.

I haven't had the problem, but it sounds like maybe you did not make a backup dvd of your OS system, Microsoft offers a one time down load in chase your pc crashes. Maybe go to another pc and see if you can do the down load the software with your pc info, it's worth a try with the price of new OS software. Hope every thing works out for you.

Hey there, I used it and it worked great! I had a bunch of different error messages, and it would take sometimes 30-60 minutes to get a game to read beforehand. I used the disk cleaner and it worked perfectly. I let it do it's process a few times just to be sure, and was SO happy when I realized it fixed the issue. Hope this helps!
