ADED 2nd HD in 810 Elite HPE but now won't start

Just bought a 135qe-810 w/Win7.

I'm moving my HD 300 GB Maxtor SATA existing my HP hpe-150ff to my new 810-135qe.  This isn't a bootable hard drive.  Data only.  Hung but now computer won't start; system goes into recovery mode.  Ouch.  I can see the drive in the BIOS and everything seems good.  Shut down and unplugged the HD Maxtor, reboot and the computer starts very well.  Brought back the HD in the older hpe 150ff and 150 boots and HD works very well.  Why can I not use this HD with the new computer.  If I buy a new HD, will it work?  Can I use more than one HD on this computer?

Hey DocCoder...

I agree, adding a second disc, especially in this PC with 2 open housing should be child's play.

No matter how lucky you have another HARD disk, you can try? I have a similar PC (configure to order) same motherboard and one bunch of others in my lab here and they all work without a hitch.

As a test, I tried the disks SATA version 2.0 and 3.0, with a number of different manufacturers go all the way in 2007. Each of them appeared very well (some even had an OS bootable on them and has not caused any problems since SATA looks like for the first bootable hard disk from SATA 0).

There is no settings on your PC to change, it should just plug and play so to speak... So before you return the PC, find out if it could be the drive you want to put in it.

Good luck.

Bill

  • HP pavilion elite hpe 500cs: stuck at the start-up screen

    Hello
    I bought gtx 1060 to my hp pavilion elite hpe 500cs pc, but I can't front the start screen (cannot even get into the bios settings). I inherited bios with the latest version 7.15 which is avalible for my motherboard. The card worked on power and different Mr. b. is sufficient. I also have 1 beep, that the long break and followed 3 short and fast beeps long beep.

    Any ideas?

    Your comparison of different systems and not being is not specific about the other tested machine.  It is like comparing a Citroën with a Renault. (Could not stop myself, realizing your in CS).  The HPE 500cs, as you say, is Legacy BIOS.  The new GTX 1060 is UEFI and would not work in the HPE without a hybrid BIOS from the manufacturer of the card.

  • Daw was working but now won't

    I have a hp elite, with a mixer, alesis io26, reason and cubase, that everything worked perfectly. the only problem was Windows media player work so I had so I had ay cds in cubase, could not play movies or burn CD/DVDs. one thing I have confused for me are within reason and you configure your audio preferences of cubase, but, in windows media player it seems to have no way to configure my blender. so, recently, I've updated my computer that I have never done, and messed with the settings sound a little trying to get media to work, which has been unsuccessful player. now I open reason as often it appears a bit slow. then I try to load the song and it freezes and says its engine didn't check sound card or installation (cubase does the same thing). I reinstalled the reason did not. I checked the sound card in the program and it has a green check mark next to it, theres a red x if it does not work. I then reinstalled reason on my old COMP to make sure that the disc has not been damaged, and it worked. Then, I saved all my songs on an external hard drive and plugged into the COMP. old and it all works. I looked for a solution for hours with no progress. any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    the problem is resolved. I just needed to uninstall and reinstall the driver for the alesis io26. only problem that remains is the media player window does not work always and never. I don't know what the problem is. I thought I was because I am using recording studio speakers wired through the instead of computer speakers alesis io26. and there is no way to configure routing audio windows media. I would be grateful for any thank you more suggestions

  • AppleTV has been paired with the keyboard but now won't do

    My keyboard (mod-A1314) was paired with the AppleTV, I do not use it for a few months and now it won't pair anymore. The Bluetooth shows just the rotation of the pinion turns but never stops. I changed the batteries in the keyboard, but nothing helped.

    What can I do to make this work?

    check that the keyboard still works by connecting to another device, if the device works then reset the Apple TV and the device software update

  • I've updated my mouse driver, but now whenever I start my computer action guests come in saying I need to run .exe files. I unlocked the updated drivers, but they keep get recalculated when I click Manager tasks.

    It is an Alps Touchpad on a laptop Acer 5520.  Drivers that are displayed at the command prompt are Apoint.exe, ApntEx.exe and ApMsgFwd.ede.  I have unblocked them several times, unlocked the program under Program Files, but it still appears saying the signature is not verified or there just need to be clicked on run.

    Is this the driver you downloaded (copy / paste any link)?

    Or look for good drivers here.

    Welcome to Acer support
    http://support.Acer.com/

    Uninstall your current drivers, or use the options to 'Roll back' through the back to previous drivers Device Manager.  If you opt for a second attempt to install drivers later, see if there is no option to right-click on any setup.exe where you can select the "Run as Administrator" option.  Temporarily disable all security installation software could also help.

    They speak on disabling driver signing verification if you want to consider that (may be reckless?).

  • HP Pavilion Elite m9280a PC, blue screen now won't start!

    Hello

    My pc does not now start upward. It worked fine until the other day when I got a blue screen STOP error. Before that I could write the code that the computer tried to restart. It won't have the option to go in safe mode now, the hard drive light flashes on the front just once when you turn then just sits there, white light, solid screen. I am running Vista.

    Any help would be awsome as I am Flexi-rent this pc and do not want to pay for a computer I can't use even turned off!

    Thank you

    Pat

    P.S. I had a Vista disk when I got the PC.

    Pat1982,

    You should always have a recovery hard disk partition.

    When you turn on the computer, press F11 repeatedly until the system recovery begins. For more information, read this:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00814731

    If/when you get all of this done, you must create a set of recovery disks and then perform the steps described in this article, to avoid possible future problems:

  • trying to replace xp home with installation installation complete but now won't finish

    Lost the previous full versions in flood, re - install was interrupted by the loss of power, enough to upgrade disk.

    Hi Stuart,

    You install Windows XP on an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) PC?  If so, you might be able to request recovery disks from the manufacturer (which can be Windows ME) to install, and then use the XP upgrade later.

    See the section on the replacement of a card.

    Instead of plugging on the long black slot which is a video card plug into one of the slots black short. You have Windows 7 I think which means that you will need a driver, but that should come on a CD with the card. Will need you a power connector (molex) on the map, too.
