Computer does not start load Windows normally. During the diagnosis, I received the following message is displayed:

  • Test for success/failure of archiveLogFile() servermanager method

    When you try to check a log programmatically using the servermanager archiveLogFile() is there a way to test the success / failure of the action. I tried

    adminObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("topsecret");
    serverObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi._servermanager.servermanager");
    result = serverObj.archiveLogFile("logfilename");
    writeDump(result);
    

    However, the result is undefined.

    Thank you!

    This function has a returntype Sub, that's why.

    Instead, you need to read something like a directory to see if the file has been renamed.

    When I try to install from disk backup it is hard disk not found, but in the bios the hard drive is located and can not boot from it.

    I tried with winxp pro disc to try not to get an OS on the laptop any partition to the OS but a blue screen with an error 0 x 00000050 CrashFree disk gives error 1170 if I remember correctly.

    I can't update the bios with new version because she needs windows, I can't stop the lan because there is no setting in the bios very minimul with about 4 useful settings in it.

    Is the hard drive turned or is this a bug in the bios that it detects drive hard, but does not assign a letter properly?

    If I try the recovery console in xp Setup there is no disk to read or write, if I maps the drive in recovery only the cd/dvd rom found no hard drive.

    Any help would be great thank you because I don't know what to do, I don't think that the hard drive is shot myself but maybe if I can get a laptop and try the hard drive what she will say if it is or not, but for now I'm stuck with no. had to go.

    Hello Shoah

    You did what I would recommend.
    I remember what one of my friends has had a similar problem on an A200. But after the BIOS reset by default, he was able to install the OS from the recovery CD.

    The whole is very mysterious. It looks like a HARD disk failure, but the HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS. But have you checked the HARD disk in other laptop or computer?
    You can try to connect the HARD disk via the external USB HDD controller and could check if it s ok and could format.

    I recommend also to remove the CD/DVD drive and the HARD drive, then set the BIOS to default settings immediately (don't forget to save changes). Then try to power upward without the HARD disc and the drive.
    To my knowledge, you should get an error message.
    Then stop the laptop and put both the device in Notepad. Then go to BIOS and check if both devices are properly recognized.

    Finally, I must say that I don't know if my proposal will help m.
    If she won't help, you will need to contact an ASP in your country, because it really looks like a serious problem.

    Good luck

  • Dell xps 8100; Disk failure hard error 2000-0142 0 self test status 79

    Hi guys, I was wandering in the forums for a few hours, now looking for ana response to this question, and can't find anything clear. I have a XPS 8100 that I run a diagnostic and received a 2000-0142 error code that says MSG: error code 2000-0142 hard drive FAILURE 0 self-test status: 79 based on what I read in the forum is that there is a disk failure, and the only recourse is to solve the problem in my view is to replace the drive. Firstly, can someone please give me an absolute confirmation that it is indeed what I have to do, or is there something else I should do to fix this problem first? If a replacement drive is there someone could please tell me how can I do to get my OEM software off the coast of the partition recovery and on my new drive. I now office preinstalled and, of course, premium Windows 7 I would like to see on my new hard drive and I was not provided with one of the disks at the time of purchase. Thanks in advance to all those who respond

    Hi XPS8100kid,

    Welcome to the Dell Community Forum.

    The 200-0142 error is for hard drive failure and you need to replace the hard drive.

    Since the hard drive has not, you would not be able to access the partition recovery on it. Data would be lost and the software already installed on your computer will need to be reinstalled.

    Windows 7 will need to be installed on the new hard drive. Please click the link below to get the procedure of re - install Windows 7.

  • failure of the disk drive - pre-seed evaluation results

    Our computer gives the message "disk failure hard press f1", but he just keeps repeating this message when I press f1.

    I ran the ePSA pre-boot system assessment.  It gives a green checkmark to all devices listed on the left, but lists s/o to disk.  But at the end of the trial, he tells me that everything is ok.

    Does this mean that my hard drive is shot?  Any suggestions?

    SATA 1 is probably the optical drive.   Your hard drive has indeed failed - it would be attached to SATA 0.

    You will need a new 3.5 "desktop SATA drive to replace the defective one.

    Hello Datsuny, many times this error means that the hard drive has failed or the operating system on the hard disk is damaged.

    I would tend to think that the hard drive has failed.
