Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer как исправить - Исправление недочетов и поиск решений вместе с Examum.ru

Question
I’ve tried to install with a disc, from a usb all that jazz, everytime I go through ‘Windows activated setup is copying temporary files…’ then ‘Window activated setup is starting…’ then I get the same error ‘Windows could not retrieve information about the discs on the computer.

I’ve backed up all my data so I’m good to do a clean installation, I’ve tried booting from the disc(does nothing, boots normally) and booting from the usb(I get to sit around forever staring at a flashing cursor, apparently going nowhere)

I’m running XP Pro service pack 2, I’ve met all the requirements for 7.

I’ve unplugged and disable all unnecessary drives and what not(floppy drive, second disc drive, etc)

I’ve flicked through half a million pages talking about how to resolve this problem on Vista and XP, none of which helped at all, a few advised enabling the ‘Virtual Disk’ service, brilliant I apparently don’t even have that.

Someone please save my computer from a very short flight off the top of a very tall building.

I’m not a computer tech or anything, I’d like to think I’m pretty clued in but for conveniences sake could any advise be extremely detailed in step-by-step form, just to save me from having to make a ‘How do you get to that?’ post and someone having to reply to it.

Hi AlecHetho,

Based on my experience, this error usually can occur because the VDS service is set to disabled. To resolve it, we need to enable the “Virtual Disk” service. Please refer to the following steps:

1)       Click Start / Run and type SERVICES.MSC

2)       Look for the Virtual Disk Service

3)       Right click it and choose «Properties«

4)       Change the Startup Type to Manual, then click the Start button.

5)       Reboot and try the upgrade again.

If there isn’t Virtual Disk Service listed, you can take the following steps to populate the disk information:

1)       Click Start / Run and type devmgmt.msc

2)       Expand the Disk drives and double click the disk.

3)       Click Volumes on the disk Properties.

4)       If the volumes information are blank, click Populate.

5)       Insert the Windows 7 installation disc and launch Setup.exe

Best Regards

I have Windows XP x 64 installed on my Maxtor Sata II 250 GB HD, and when I boot the DVD in the restart of the operating system, after clicking Install now, it shows this error. How can I solve this problem?

You must enable the service of virtual disk before you perform the upgrade, if you encounter this error.

1. click on start / run and type SERVICES. MSC
2. search for the virtual disk Service
3. right click and choose ‘properties ‘.
4. make sure that the Startup Type is automatic, and then click the Start button.
5 reboot and try the upgrade again.

I want to upgrade to Windows 7, because i have alot of important software which would take too long to re-install, but whenever i run the setup.exe and select upgrade it runs for a few seconds and the i get the error message:
«Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer»
and the setup ends, is there a way round this?

I checked the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and everything was normal in there, however i’ll upload the report, to see if you can find any faults.

P.S. I’ve tried 3 different releases now and all of them get the same error. Also tried burning at different speeds, different DVDs and tried installing from a virtual drive, and i still receive the same error. I also tried upgrading from booting the CD, it told me to restart the PC, let it boot into Vista and run setup.exe, which brings me back to my original problem =[

Any suggestions would be great!

I was having the same problem on an un-partitioned drive and realized that the virtual disk service had been turned off which was preventing windows from seeing the current config of the HDD. It seems the user had disabled it for performance reasons. To fix the problem follow these steps:

— Right click on computer under the start menu and chose manage
— In the computer management window click on services and scroll down to the service labeled «Virtual Disk» right click on it and chose properties.
— Under «Services status» click start then click apply and ok
— close all the windows and retry the upgrade
Good Luck

I have the same error message when I try to install Windows 7!

Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer

I feel like I could fix this problem by starting the «Virtual Disk» but no matter what option I set it on (manual, automatic. ) the «start» option is grayed out!! The status is stuck at «starting» even when I restart the computer.

I have the same stupid problem! When I put in the Windows 7 installation disk into the DVD drive and click «Install Now», it goes to a full-screen setup page, which reads:

Setup is copying temporary files.
Setup is starting.

Then an error window opens stating, «Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer.»
That’s it. No help, suggestions, no nothing! Just an «OK» button that closes the installation session completely! WTF.
This appears to be a pretty common problem for a lot of users, and should be easily identifiable and resolvable by Microsoft! Why is it happening.

And yes, I ran the Win 7 Upgrade Diagnostics first, which reported:
Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor Report
Computer Name: EDWARDO-PC
Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium
Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
Model: HP G60 Notebook PC
CPU: AMD Turion Dual-Core RM-70
Memory: 2.8 GB

154.2 GB free space available on C:
Your hard disk meets the minimum requirement of 16 GB free space for 32-bit Windows 7.

Does ANYONE at Microsoft have ANY information about this and how to get past this?

Click on start-up type and select Automatic, then click OK.
You should then be able to click on the now not-grayed-out Start button.

While I have received no help or advice from Microsoft whatsoever regarding this serious installation deficiency, I have managed to get past it and successfully install Windows 7 on my laptop. If you recall, the original problem was:

When I put in the Windows 7 installation disk into the DVD drive and click «Install Now», it goes to a full-screen setup page, which reads:
— Setup is copying temporary files.
— Setup is starting.
— Then an error window opens stating, «Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer.»

That’s it. No help, suggestions, no nothing! Just an «OK» button.

The first thing I noticed when I started poking around with my security settings was that even though I am the only user on this machine and I had given myself Administrator privileges, I still didn’t have FULL and complete admin rights to everything! 99% of the rights were there, but 1% was still being denied. So, I logged off as a user and logged back in as The Administrator.

Then I started playing around with the Vista Device Manager. I went to
Start | Control Panel | Hardware and Sound | Device Manager.

Then I selected Disk drive and double-clicked on my hard drive, which brought up the Properties window for the drive.

I clicked on the Volumes tab and noticed there was no information displayed there whatsoever. So I clicked the
Populate button, and poof. like magic all the volume information correctly appeared.

But I noticed that when I clicked the OK button, then went back into the hard drive to recheck the volume information, it was blank again! Go figure.

I don’t know if this is the the answer to everyone’s installation problems, but it worked for me, and I hope this information can help someone else too.

Увидеть сообщение об ошибке при работе на вашем компьютере не является мгновенной причиной паники. Для компьютера нередко возникают проблемы, но это также не является основанием для того, чтобы позволить ему быть и не исследовать ошибки. Ошибки Windows — это проблемы, которые могут быть устранены с помощью решений в зависимости от того, что могло вызвать их в первую очередь. Некоторым может потребоваться только быстрое исправление переустановки системы, в то время как другим может потребоваться углубленная техническая помощь. Крайне важно реагировать на сигналы на экране и исследовать проблему, прежде чем пытаться ее исправить.

Causes of Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this compute?

Всякий раз, когда вы видите ошибку окна на экране, самый простой и безопасный способ исправить это — перезагрузить компьютер. Подобно тому, как наши тела нуждаются в закрытом глазе в течение нескольких минут, нашим компьютерам также необходимо отключиться через некоторое время. Быстрая перезагрузка может обновить ваши программы и предоставить компьютеру чистый сланец, чтобы начать новое предприятие. Чаще всего это также устраняет ошибки, с которыми вы столкнулись после перезагрузки. Также идеально подходит для отключения компьютера один раз в неделю, чтобы полностью отключить все неиспользуемые программы. Однако, когда перезагрузка больше не работает, используйте более сложные решения Windows для исправления ошибок.

Have you installed the drivers for the disk controllers on the motherboard (most often this is for SATA/RAID/SCSI drives)?
Consult your motherboard documentation for the appropriate driver. Ensure that you get the most recent Vista driver if Win7 drivers aren’t available.

When you try to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 I get this error: «Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer.»

original title: problems of Windows update/upgrade

I’m currently trying to install Windows 7 on my desktop running Vista.

Whenever I run the Setup it comes up with the following error: Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer.

I already put the virtual disk on auto and rebooted several times. I get the same error.

Also, I tried to update my computer by using the windows update thinking that would help… Windows update decides to not work either! It comes up with the error: Windows Update cannot currently check the updates, because the service is not running. You may have to restart your computer.

gain, I restarted and it still does not work.

I am currently running Windows Vista 32 bit on my desk (I thank God for my laptop!).

You use the installation disc for the full version or an upgrade disc?

You can see the following link.

This could be a problem with your hard drive. You can contact the manufacturer of the hard drive for better assistance.

This means that the hard drive of your HP system controller is not supported by Windows 7 with pilots from the box and you need specific drivers to install Windows 7 on it. If HP does not have drivers on their website then you’re probably not going to succeed.

It’s a little late for this, but anytime you do an upgrade, you must be sure that your computer is compatible. My guess is your drive for windows 7 is a DVD and you have a CD or a witch of CD — RW drive can not read CD

I’ve never had a problem with a SATA cable before so I never even thought to replace.

One who turned out to be defective was one of the thinner, but I used a lot of them in the past without incident.

This may or may not be the cause of your problem, but try it

Have a great Christmas and good luck for the new year

Thank you

Faulty installation or DVD your DVD drive is faulty.

You do not have the ability to create a thumb / Flash drive to install Windows.

After you download if necessary. ISO file (see my previous post, follow the step #4).

«Could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available.»?

I’ve been happily turn Photoshop CS (1) on my Powermac MDD for years.

But today, she is facing upward. Here’s the problem: I get the error message «could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available.»

I have studied this problem and see that it’s been covered in the thread:
http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/370672?start=0 & tstart = 0

So I trashed preferences and the SFW prefs also.
Now Photoshop starts… BUT as soon as I go into the preferences and assign a scratch disk, he failed once more to throw with the same error: «could not initialize Photoshop because the disk is not available.»

I tried to slide on the copies of the utility Photoshop of my backup disk files… but the same strange behavior persists.

My Scratch disk is on a second internal hard drive.

This all started when I had to restart from OS 9 order to use my SCSI scanner, which only has an OS9 driver.
I used it for years with no problem… until today.

Was it because once I saved the file in Photoshop 4 and OS9 on an OSX file that somehow the preferences got screwed up?

Popular clues…

work drive must be HFS +.

also check the permissions of the property in the Infolog to get for the reader scratching. You may need to ignore permissions for this volume.

Windows Media Player says it is retrieve information about the media and update of files but nothing happens

Windows Media Player has ceased to apply Media Information changes for me to update the audio CD information. When I click on ‘Apply the changes to the media information’ dialog box appears which says it’s to retrieve information on the media and put files up-to-date but nothing happens… He remains at 0 percent. Internet connection works fine. It worked a few days ago.

Non-compliant WMI when retrieving information about the same exact machine

For some time, WMI has reported the following information some machine:
Win32_ComputerSystemModel = «HP EliteBook 8560p.
Win32_ComputerSystemManufacturer = «Hewlett-Packard».

One day, WMI has reported the following:
Win32_ComputerSystemModel = «161A___».
Win32_ComputerSystemManufacturer = «HPQOEM».

A few days later, WMI is returned for having reported the usual:
Win32_ComputerSystemModel = «HP EliteBook 8560p.
Win32_ComputerSystemManufacturer = «Hewlett-Packard».

I don’t have the machine and the user can not explain what might cause WMI retrieve various information.

How to get Windows in a State where it is retrieved different information about the same PC?
Is there a way to ‘reset’ WMI so it retrieves information constantly?

What similar (and different) for prior experience (different machines).

The usual case is:
Win32_ComputerSystemUserName = DOM-user
where:
DOM is the domain of the user (in uppercase)
the user is the user name (all lowercase)

But sometimes WMI recovered:
Win32_ComputerSystemUserName = DOM- USER
where:
the username was all uppercase. Apparently caused when the machine into hibernation

Win32_ComputerSystemUserName = DOM- dom -user
where:
the field of user uppercase followed by domain user in all lowercase letters. Never explained.

I use WMI to develop an ID for purposes of the license, so it is extremely important that WMi systematically extract information.

The problem with username is solvable.

However, the model with randomness and Manfacturer seem more problematic.

Thank you!!!

Windows could not start after activating the boot.

Hi all

I have a very serious problem.

A few lost technology from Microsoft asked that I have to do the following:

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135.

Immediately after the restart, I was confronted with the following message:

Windows could not start.

Status: 0xc000000e

Info: A required device is not connected or is not accessible.

Startup Repair does not work. -Root cause found: the partition table has not a Sys component validates.

System Restore does not work — the system cannot find the specified file (0 x 80070002)

Bootrec — rebuildbcd works no item was not found.

Bootcfg does not work — could not open the TRUNK. INI file.

Bcdedit does not work — the requested system device cannot be found.

GParted does not work — cannot load the ntfs module: invalid argument.

How can it be fixed, please?

It is an extremely urgent situation which must be resolved immediately, because I use this computer for work and need to return to work on a large commercial project Monday. Forget the original question that MS tech was trying to ‘help’ with, everything what I need now is to be able to get into Windows, or even just make this record available and accessible on the LAN computer.

Hi all, thank you for the advice.

Problem has been resolved after a cold start.
