Help. I have accidently deleted intellex 2.6 storage drive

Recommended Posts

Help. I have deleted the storage drive from my Intellex 2.6 running on Windows XP. There was a warning prior to deleting the storage but I ignored it thinking I could just 'Add' later. Now the unit is not showing any volumes to 'Add' when I re-run the storage setup.

Intellex version 2.6 operates on Windows 98 - and not on Windows XP. Intellex version 4.x is the platform that work with XP only... version 5.0 works on Win7

 

If you upgraded OS only, chances are very good that your system will not work. Such upgrade will re-write all the registry entries and then also change the SW key... which then will diminish system's integrity.

 

Not sure what are you trying to do... but no such thing for XP OS to be running on Intellex version 2.6

The previous statement is incorect.

Version 2.6 actually runs on Windows 2000.

It is the only 2.x version to do so. It is the LT version of 3.2.

 

If your drives are missing.

Go out to windows and look at the contents of the drives other than C:

There is a file called volumeinfo.xml

open this with notepad.

Change the line where it says 1

Change the 1 to a 0 and save the file.

You should have your drive back in the software.

you will need to add it in the Setup, storage section

The above statement is incorrect....

 

First off read what the member said about using XP operating system with older version Intellex, which only is available on Intellex version 4.x... and statement that version 2.6 is actually LT version of 3.2, is not true. That may have been the intention of your company, American Dynamics, over ten plus years ago but in actuality, they did not deliver it. You company immediately went to version 3.0, which yes, came with LT version. Their initial attempt to make Intellex version 2.6 to work with Win2000 operating system was a total disaster due to hardware limitations.

 

Lets solve the problem for the user first and ask him how he can run Intellex version 2.6 in XP environment.... Actually, if he is savvy, it is possible and he can even go to Win7 too and still use Intellex version 2.6... all related to hardware limitations and drivers going from one OS to another. Even though there is no advantage of any sort on changing OS, true possibility is there.
