Ask HTG：格式化“隐形”硬盘，更改Android中的默认应用以及如何使用新的Kindle Fire...

Once a week we round up some of the reader emails we’ve answered and share the solutions with everyone; this week we’re looking at how to format and install onto a disk the Windows installer doesn’t see, changing the default for an Android app, and some getting-started tips for the Kindle Fire.

每周一次，我们收集一些已收到的读者电子邮件，并与所有人共享解决方案。 本周，我们将研究如何格式化Windows安装程序看不到的磁盘并将其安装到磁盘上，更改Android应用程序的默认设置，以及Kindle Fire的一些入门技巧。

如何在不可见的磁盘上安装Windows？

(How Do I Install Windows On an Invisible Disk? )

Dear How-To Geek,

亲爱的How-To Geek，

I’m so frustrated with this! I have a computer I want to install Windows 7 onto. When I run the Windows 7 installation disk it reports back that there is no hard drive in the tower! There is a hard drive. I know the hard drive works. It’s a Western Digital Raptor drive that used to be part of a mirrored pair in my Windows Vista computer. I can’t figure this out and I can’t afford a new drive right now! Help!

我对此感到非常沮丧！ 我有一台要安装Windows 7的计算机。 当我运行Windows 7安装盘时，它报告说塔中没有硬盘！ 有一个硬盘驱动器。 我知道硬盘可以工作。 这是Western Digital Raptor驱动器，曾经是Windows Vista计算机中镜像对的一部分。 我无法解决这个问题，现在也买不起新驱动器！ 救命！

Sincerely,

真诚的

Dear InvisiDisk Man,

亲爱的InvisiDisk人：

We have two suggestions for you. First, is it possible that there is a mismatched jumper configuration on your drive? The drive may not have jumpers, but if it’s an older one with jumpers, it’s possible that it was configured—via the jumpers—to be the secondary drive in the mirror RAID array you mentioned.

我们有两个建议给您。 首先，驱动器上的跳线配置是否可能不匹配？ 该驱动器可能没有跳线，但是如果它是带跳线的较旧驱动器，则有可能通过跳线将其配置为您提到的镜像RAID阵列中的辅助驱动器。

Ruling out the jumpers, we suggest investigating via the diskpart command. Load up the installation disk again. When the Windows 7 installation gets to the point where it asks you what language you want to use, press Shift and F10. This will pull up a command prompt. At the prompt plug in the following commands:

排除跳线，建议通过diskpart命令进行调查。 再次加载安装盘。 当Windows 7安装达到询问您要使用哪种语言的程度时，请按Shift和F10。 这将弹出命令提示符。 在提示符处，插入以下命令：

diskpart

磁盘部分

list disk (in a single disk machine, it’ll be disk 0, modify the following commands if it’s a different disk #)

列出磁盘(在单个磁盘机中，它将是磁盘0，如果它是另一个磁盘号，则修改以下命令)

select disk 0

选择磁盘0

clean (will wipe any existing partitions)

清洁(将擦除所有现有分区)

create partition primary (add on “size=X” where X is the value in bytes, if you’d like to specify the size of the partition)

创建主分区(如果要指定分区的大小，则在“ size = X”上添加X是以字节为单位的值)

select partition 1

选择分区1

active

活性

format fs=ntfs quick

快速格式化fs = ntfs

exit

出口

The drive should now be visible to the Windows installer! If the drive doesn’t appear in the diskpart app, it’s time for some more advanced trouble shooting including checking that the BIOS of the computer can see the drive and possibly testing the drive in another system.

该驱动器现在应该对Windows安装程序可见！ 如果驱动器未出现在diskpart应用程序中，那么该是时候进行一些更高级的故障排除了，包括检查计算机的BIOS是否可以看到该驱动器以及可能在其他系统中测试该驱动器。

如何更改默认的Android应用程序？ (How Do I Change a Default Android App?)

Dear How-To Geek,

亲爱的How-To Geek，

I was opening a picture on my Android phone and I accidently set a picture viewer I don’t want to be my default picture app, as my default picture app. Now I have no idea how to set things back! How can I wipe the default action for pictures and either switch back to the old picture viewer?

我在Android手机上打开图片时，不小心将不希望成为默认图片应用程序的图片查看器设置为默认图片应用程序。 现在我不知道该如何退缩！ 如何擦除图片的默认操作，然后切换回旧的图片查看器？

Sincerely,

真诚的

Dear App Stuck,

亲爱的App Stuck，

What you need to do is clear the defaults. In order to do so you need to go into the settings for the application that has taken over the picture function and wipe the default action for that task. We detail how to do this in our guide on the subject here. Once you wipe the default you just need to try and open a picture (or perform any other action you’ve wiped the default for) and you’ll be presented with a set of potential apps. Pick the default picture viewer or alternate app to be the new default and you’re in business!

您需要做的是清除默认设置。 为此，您需要进入已接管图片功能的应用程序的设置，并擦除该任务的默认操作。 我们在此处的主题指南中详细介绍了如何执行此操作。 擦除默认设置后，您只需要尝试打开一张图片(或执行擦除默认设置的任何其他操作)，就会看到一组潜在的应用程序。 选择默认图片查看器或替代应用作为新的默认图片，您就可以开展业务！

我应该先使用Kindle Fire做什么？ (What Should I Do First with My Kindle Fire?)

Dear How-To Geek,

亲爱的How-To Geek，

I just got a Kindle Fire for Mother’s Day… I’ve never owned a Kindle or a tablet before. I have no idea where to start? Are there any distinctly Kindle Fire-centric things I should do? Thanks!

我刚得到母亲节的Kindle Fire…我以前从未拥有过Kindle 或平板电脑。 我不知道从哪里开始？ 我应该做些明显的以Kindle Fire为中心的事情吗？ 谢谢！

Sincerely, Tablet Mom
