A noise grinding, does not start

When I turned on my laptop this morning (HP G20 - 257 CL, SN2CE9135LGS) it came normal initially then suddenly there's a plaintive sound, like a bearing went bad or something dragging on a spinning disk. I immediately turned off the computer. When I try to put it back on again once I get a message that there is no start address... Insert a floppy disk, and I still have the noise. I suppose the hard drive went and trying to decide whether to repair or replace. Looking for some advice/info... what it cost to replace the drive hard if I send it in HP or can you recommend a repair service in my area (zip code 49327)

EA,

I'm glad to hear that you were able to save your files.  Once the new hard drive is installed, you can boot from the recovery disks and the recovery will go through the process of partitioning the hard drive and installing Windows, drivers, and applications.

  • Portege M800 - noise and HWSetup does not start

    Hello

    I use a Portege M800-116 under XP - SP3.

    Problem 1:
    Connection Line-Out to a stereo system and play music with Winamp or WinMediaPlayer works fine on battery.
    As soon as I connect the power adapter, a whistle loud high frequency and UM static disrupts the experience.

    Problem 2:
    Files WAV or MP3 recording with internal or external microphone produce mediocre results.
    The resulting files include a high level of high frequency noise and hum static.
    Connect the power supply increases the problem.

    Comparing the quality of the recording and playback with my old confidence Portege M100:
    My M800 is one not only of poor quality - it's plain unusable.

    Problem 3:
    Toshiba HWSetup does not start from the control panel.
    Have you tried the ONU - and re - installing nothing helps.

    Thank you for guiding me towards a solution.

    Hi, fly,

    I m not Portege M800 owner so I can t he test for you, but I think that if the problem occurs only when the AC adapter is connected, it s a grounding problem

    You have 3-pin or 2-pin AC/DC adapter?
    As far as I know in this case you need 3-pin AC/DC adapter and power cord.

    You should ask an ASP in your country. Guys can order a new AC/DC adapter and check your laptop to what the problem is exactly.

  • Satellite A300 - rotates but does not start

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A300. I had several probems for the boot since 2 months ago: when I want to turn on my laptop, it turns on but the screen keeps black and it does not load the screen "Toshiba Leading Innovation". 'Satellite' (to the left of the mouse) light is on (it would go only about a second then to start and then turn off) and it will turn off.

    I try again for so many times with all the possibilities: without battery, only with the power adapter, two, but it does not start. I don't know what I can do. I always Hibernate my laptop because I'm afraid of can not start it the next day.

    Could you help me? If she cares: I had to buy a new battery (not original from Toshiba) because I had to change the original. No more changes to my laptop.

    Thank you very much and sorry for my English written: S

    Diego

    Hey Buddy,

    > I had to buy a new battery (not original from Toshiba) because I had to change the original. No more changes to my laptop.
    Of course, it s always advisable using Toshiba original spare parts only, but if you notice the same problem with AC adapter only it s not related to the new battery.

    Just to make a better diagnosis: If you have connected an external monitor? The internal display is perhaps the problem and doesn't turn on and it would be useful if you are testing the situation and an external monitor.

    But this noise as a hardware problem serious and in this case, you can wait to contact an authorized service provider. Technicians professional diagnostic tools to make an accurate diagnosis and to Exchange defective equipment parts.

    Hello

    The failure of RAM could be the reason for this behavior of the laptop.
    Remove the RAM modules with good modules tested and check the functionality of the laptop.
    In the case of RAM isn t the troublemaker, the motherboard could be affected.

    Good luck and share your experience with us.

  • Satellite A350 does not start

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A350 (about a year and a half) who does not start correctly. This has happened after that the laptop was left on until the battery has failed. The button of the keyboard and the power LED lights up, but the screen stays black when I try to turn it on. I use Windows Vista.

    The machine continues usually to make a sound whirring for a few seconds before it stops making noise (the fan and the HD). The screen flickers sometimes a lighter black on a screen for less than a second. In addition, the cooling fan has sometimes continued to operate after you stop all the rest.

    Another problem is that when if it is turn on and go to the Toshiba screen, odd lines will fade to the screen, and finally the screen eventually white/blue. On the other hand, sometimes it turn on and act as if nothing had happened. In these times, placing sleep mode will be to not be a wheat to turn back on.

    I tried removing the battery, using only the battery, fully charge the battery and using the laptop with barely any load from the battery and it doesn't change anything.

    I would really appreciate any kind of lead as to what may be wrong with the poor.

    Hello

    Generally speaking, it is always difficult to say something on these sometimes mistakes because it s not clear and can be caused by all parties, but at the moment I doubt that this problem is software partner

    You see something on a screen when the internal screen stays black?

    In the worst case, it s that a hardware malfunction and that would mean you need help from an ASP to check what part is affected, but if your laptop is under warranty, the repair is free.

  • Ran Disk - finished - Restart - Recovery does not start

    I had a problem with my HP DV7 - 4069WM Notebook PC, and I was only left with one choice. Order and use the recovery disc. I got the recovery disk and it ran; Then it said that the recovery is over and it restarts. After reboot, it is, it does not start, it's just stuck on the HP logo. I have try the ESC, F keys keys #, the only feedback I get is these error noises. Help.

    Hello:

    If you remove / unplug the secondary HARD drive the PC gets stuck on the home screen?

    You can try to install W7 using this workaround solution.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • You can save a broken computer? My computer does NOT start after the blue hp screen.

    In the past months, my computer has been the object of a freezing randomly, and Ctrl + Alt + Delete does not work. I stopped him via the power button. Sometimes, when I start it again, the computer moniter shows nothing but a black screen and the computer sounds different when it starts normally. When this happens, I turn it off again hit the left side of the desktop and turn on again. Whenever I do this, the computer starts normally, and I go on the computer use.

    Yesterday morning, after a break of 2 days, acess my computer and it is random freezing thing once again. I force close down as one normally do, and the computer does not start and displays the same black screen and the same fan/air weird sound. I stopped him and I hit the side RIGHT this time, I think and when I turn on the computer, the usual blue HP screen appears with the establishment, boot, diagnostics and system recovery things. HOWEVER, after this screen, a black screen will appear with this weird blue symbol on the upper left corner, I have never seen this and it looks like a circle with a triangle and a Pentagon below and it remains essentially on this screen forever. When I try to hit the establishment, boot, diagnostics and the shortcuts to system recovery, on the lower left side of the screen, it says "Menu boot loading...". ' or whatever the shortcut of loading represents, but nothing ever happens. When I press the other keys, this tapping noise comes from the computer at each tap of the keyboard.

    I have no idea what to do, and at this point, my first priority is to save important files on the computer. Does anyone know what is the problem? I want her more than a problem of system rather than a virus problem because refusing the boot black screen thing lasts for years. My computer is 3-4 years. I enclose a sketch of what looks like the weird symbol.

    MY COMPUTER WORKS NOW!

    With the flash drive, I was able to access the BIOS, which before, I couldn't.

    Eventually my computer was in some strange sort of lockdown setting, I switched it back to activate and now its work! I remember save important things in the future. Thank you very much for your help!

  • HP Pavilion p6-2054uk: HP Pavilion p6-2054uk does not start all of a sudden upward. Help, please.

    I hope someone can help here?

    I have a desktop HP Pavilion p6-2054uk (Windows 7 64 bit - i5, 3.00 Ghz - 6 GB of RAM) that I bought in 2012 and especially use of HP products.

    By starting my PC the other day, it will not start and crashes on the HP splash screen. When you press ESC, F10 and F1 and F8, it simply changes the screen to a black screen with 7 lines of text giving the details of my PC base on this subject. It should give me other optins at this stage, but does not work.

    The HP Pavilion p6-2054uk hard drive does not start even another hard drive OS I've tried from another computer with Windows 7 64 bit on it. Troubleshooting a few others, I even tried a fresh new hard drive in it with a new copy of Windows 7 64 bit to install into the CD Rom and it will not yet go through the HP start - that is abnormal screen since usually, it detects the Windows CD and install. Furthermore, fans in the PC work normal, as the eject the power of the PC CD ROM light is on too. I tried all the three available inside power cables and tried diferent nine cables sata/data and another monitor entry too, all to nothing done.

    The hard drive that was in the HP Pavilion p6-2054uk when he stopped to start up is fully accessible when placed in the other machine I have. Therefore, it is still operational.

    The notable thing only I did in the days before it were installing Adobe Creative Suite 6 but I do not think that it would cause a major problem like this, noting also that another hard disk OS (without Creative Suite 6 is installed) and a new facility wouldn't start either. Therefore, I am afraid a harware issue any.

    What could be going on here?

    Side for the second or 2 of optimism about the usual boot the PC normally makes noises, it looks like he died immediately after, suspended on the HP screen.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi there @dougaljoe,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that your computer does not start and it is indeed suspended at the HP logo even with a different hard disk (with configured operating system) installed. I'm happy to help you with this.

    I suggest that you perform all hardware diagnostics in the BIOS/UEFI. Please also refer to the following, as it covers a range of start-up problems, and if you follow the symptoms you experience should be useful. It includes information on diagnosis.  Computers HP - computer won't start (Windows 7)

    According to you it might just be something easily replaceable, or something more simple to set, or in a worst case something requiring maintenance. If the worst case rears its ugly head, then try a hotline. Please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a folder for your question and call HP. If you do not live in the United States / Canada, please click on the link below to get contact information for your region. http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/contact-HP/WW-phone-assist.html If all goes well, he will not come to that, but it is preferable to have the information if necessary.

    Please let me know how it works for you and if it does not solve your problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

  • XP labors heavily and Will does not start (sometimes even in safe mode.) "And if it starts in the DM, it will freeze when I try to enter to change anything).

    I have a XP computer. During use, the power supply cord unplugged and computer is dead. When I tried to restart it, it will go to the blue screen with an error, go to the screen that asks if I want to start in safe mode. It does not start in normal mode, but it does get my wallpaper and stay there. Sometimes Windows XP screen and stay there. It really starts to make a lot of noise when one of these things happens. Don't know what to do. I have a XP OS disk Dell provided with the computer. Any ideas?

    Repair the Windows XP installation - you should have all your files intact.

    A repair install will replace the system files with the files on the XP CD used to the repair facility. It will leave your applications and settings intact, but Windows updates will have to be reapplied.

    Hello

    As you have no doubt already concluded, it would look like a significant failure of hardware, in particular given the fact that there was no change when the memory has been removed completely.  Unfortunately, the most likely component is the video chip which really means a new motherboard.

    The only other possibility might be interesting to try is to remove the module WLAN (Page 51), leave the battery and try to start Notepad on the entire sector.

    Kind regards

  • HP 15634 does not start

    My HP laptop, updated a few days ago and since then it does not start. It is charged and still nothing. I hit the power button and the Wi - Fi button will Flash, and that's all. No fans no noise. I took the battery, tried starting it just the adapter, still not air dusted out and not start.

    I have called HP last night. They had tried me hit the power button then tap f10, hit the power button and typing f2 and hit the power button and typing esc. None of this has worked. It is only since this last update of windows. But yes it will not turn on at all. No fans, just the charging light is on. After trying all that HP said including the removal and replacement of hard disk, that they post me a prepaid box to send in for repair. Not sure that it is, but it seems to be the case with a lot of laptops.
