How to format Flash Drive with Unusual Software?

Q. When I plugged in the USB flash drive "Medefile" on my pc, the setup still there and it won't stop. Is there a possibly to format "D:" and "E:" and make it a default flash drive?

Here's the info:
Generic USB Flash Drive
1.99GB Free Space
Performs Faster Writing
5V Power
Medefile Mededrive Software installer.

A. This has worked for me several times, so I will pass it on. Plug it in the port, heat it with a hair dryer, wait a minute, plug it in and out a couple times. If it still does not work try the same thing with compressed air to cool it. If it start working copy the data as it may stop working again any time...

How much does a pausing camcorder cost?
Q. I would like to know how much a camera which pauses cost. I want a video camera, that can pause during broadcast, and that has video playback. How much do you think it would cost? Also it has to have a USB cable to hook up to the computer and put videos on youtube. Thanks!

A. There is no camcorder that pauses when recording.

All camcorders can playback the video they have captured.

Flash memory and hard disc drive camcorders use USB to transfer files from the camcorder to the computer. Then you can use a video editor to combine video files; cut out the crummy parts; add transitions between scenes/clips; add titles - even special effects and audio.

What is your budget?

low-end pocket camcorders are up to about $200.
entry level consumer camcorders up to about $400.
Then a jump to the upper end of consumer cam up to about $1,500.
There are a few pro cams that use flash memory, around the $7,000 mark. But mostly, the pro cams use miniDV tape.

Hard disc drive camcorders are not recommended because of their known problems with vibration, loud audio, data recovery after a crash, and lack of an affordable archive process.

Suggestions:
Flip, Xacti or Webbie for a pocket cam.
Canon FS series or the "other webbie" for a entry level consumer cam.
Canon HF or HF S or SOny HDR-CX5 series for a high end consumer cam...
I like the Sony HVR-Z7 for a pro grade flash memory camcorder.

Before you buy, make sure your computer can handle the video the camcorder gets. Otherwise, there is no way to get your masterpiece to YouTube. Since we don't know which camcorder you want and we don't know what computer hardware or software you are planning, there's not much more we can do to help.


How to recover windows if the HDD is damaged?
Q. Hello,

Windows Vista came with my laptop. I have the tag with the key on the back of the laptop. I have created the recovery discs. If my HDD will fail i will definetly loose my personal data (which i'm transferring on an external HDD), but will i lalso oose the operating system?

If i buy a new HDD, will i be able to install the operating system from the discs that i have created or those discs are just for failure of software and will not work on new HDD?

A. your recovery disks, is your operating system.

if you want to see something that put your laptop on steroids get an ssd its a hard drive made out of ram, they are expensive and small.
youtube ssd sometime. (battery will last much longer too) and it wont break due to shaking the laptop or anything like that no moving parts.

but since your getting a new drive anyhow, you can use your original hard drive and plug it into an external usb case.
and use the original drive as an external hard drive.

even if by some freak incident the recovery disks wont install windows, you can always plug it back in.


I want to get files of my old broken hard drive, anyone know a reliable cheap data recovery firm in the UK?
Q. Basically it stopped being recognised by my mac. I took it to my local computer shop which had a good look at it and said that the problem was between the caddy and the hard drive but that the hard drive itself was fine. I have kept the hard drive in dry place for about 2 year and now have money to try and recover the contents.

A. this helped me to recover my files
