BIOS does not detect not hard drive for laptop after the setting of the default BIOS settings.

I had my 14.04 installed Ubuntu in my laptop in a reader named «Notebook hard drive» a pre-installed Windows 8. Today I put the default BIOS settings in my phone and when I rebooted it and tried to use Ubuntu by pressing 'F9' key and choosing from the menu of the BIOS I found my 'Notbook HDD"option missing. My disk of Ubuntu is still there, but I have no way to access it. Is there a way I can get it to work?

Try turning off secure in the BIOS and then start by restarting the laptop.

  • Replacing hard drive for laptop after Windows update failure

    The internal hard drive is not now on our Pavilion dv9700 CTO Windows Vista 64-bit. I would like to replace it with a hard drive from equivaltent, but I am unsure on how to provide for the operating system (we want Windows7 instead of Vista) and productivity software (essentially MS Office Pro). What is the best way to go about this? I have Win7 CDs I have installed on another computer that has also died and gone out of service, so I prefer to use them rather than buy a new license. Ditto for the OEM Office supplied with this notebook.

    Please provide suggestions that you will need to perform this type of upgrade. We must keep costs at a minimum right now and since nothing else seems to be failing on the 9700 repalcing the part and reconfigruing seems the best way to go. Thanks in advance for any help.

    You can replace it with this number of HP spare. It will be smaller, slower, and 3 times more expensive. Computer laptop SATA hard drives are interchangeable, generic, industry standard. If you buy the one above and it doesn't work PM me and I'll buy it for you at your expense.

  • new hard drive for laptop

    I have a laptop dv7-3140el and HD samsung HM641JI 640GB 2.5 "SATA 5400 RPM (to replace car failure). To buy a new hard drive I have to take the same or I can take 7200 RPM instead of 5400? What technical specifications should I look for when buying a hard drive for computer laptop dv7-3140el? I wouldn't make a bad purchase!

    Sorry for my bad English

    Hello

    Here are a few points to note when replacing your HARD drive:

    You are not limited to any particular drive manufacturer.

    The speed of rotation of the disc can be 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM

    The new drive HARD should be at least the same capacity (or slightly more is okay) as the original drive - mounting a drive smaller than the original often causes risks with recovery media.

    The player at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

    750 GB hard drive for laptop.

    If necessary, the procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 47 of your maintenance & Service Guide.

    Hello

    Acrobat Reader mobile apps (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) is the free PDF viewers. They don't support OCR (Optical Character Recognition).

    However, you can purchase the subscription online service called Adobe export to PDF and use it in mobile applications of Acrobat Reader to convert PDF documents to other formats (e.g. Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint).

    Have you already bought the Adobe online subscription service export to PDF?  Would make sure that you're signed in with your Adobe ID to use the service?

  • How to copy data from one hard drive to another after the upgrade?

    I have a HP e9220y, and I recently bought a new hard drive for it. There is nothing wrong with the former, but this one has a 64 MB cache and 7200 RPM so I hope it will be a little faster. I installed it and it works fine, but I want to copy all data from the old disk to the new so I can start everything off the faster hard drive and I seem to have a bit of doing wrong. I can't just copy and paste because of the Windows system files that are used. And last night when I set up Windows backup, and went to bed, when I thought it that Windows has recovered from a stop unexpected, rebooted, and only 2 GB of data saved obtained.

    What is the best way to move all the data from the old drive to the new drive, make it the default C: drive and move partitions system and factory_image as well? Thank you!

    (1) If your old drive and the new drive is Seagate or Western Digital, then free House with their cloning software.

    (2) before starting the clone process, I found best to perform a disk cleanup and defragmentation.

    Cloning software to copy the two partitions. Example:

    Old drive 250 GB formatted to 232 C: created 220 and 12 GB D:

    New 1000GO drive formatted to 931 GB created 919 GB C: and D: to 12 GB

    The "Seagate disc Wizard" cloning software will let create you a clone automatic or manual partition resizing.

    The two modes to offer an overview of the actions before commit you. The manual on this page of Seagate (PDF) is 68 pages.

    After the cloning process he complete, all you have to do is swap on the disks. Besure to connect your new disc on the original motherboard SATA port.

  • Windows 7 continues default installation does not no driver for HD audio on a working one.

    Hello

    I have a problem with the realtek HD audio driver in Windows 7 Pro x 64. My audio is an integrated sound card Realtek HD (realtek alc660 6-channel codec) on motherboard, Asus k8v - vm SE. Fresh after installation of Windows 7, it installs its default HD audio driver and says, it works (in the Device Manager it says, that the device works properly), but in the list of devices in reading (in the speaker system tray icon menu) there is no peripheral, so finally there is no noise. There is no problem, given that Realtek has its own drivers for Win7 x 64 available, which work just fine (ver. 2.39 R at the moment). The problem is that, after every single boot computer, Windows installs back its own drivers by default, which as I have already said do not work. The curious part is that it does not retrieve them after reboot, but only after the turn of market.

    I think the problem lies in the fact that Realtek drivers are not certified, and the MS drivers are of course. I think that Windows is to choose the latter, because it believes they are safer (workin Realtek & non certified drivers vs MS pseudo-travail & certified drivers).

    Someone has suggestions how to stop the installation of defective Win7 drivers? Installation of those appropriate to each boot is not very practical.

    Kind regards
    Dominik

    Hello

    1. the first solution didn't work, but it made me realize, that the pilot was not recovering but it was deleted and then recovered with the standard procedure (certified drivers > uncertified drivers). In addition, it was everything at random, when the driver has been deleted - sometimes it worked very well after stop and sometimes not.
    2. second solution can be followed only partially. Can I uninstall the device, but I cannot uninstall the Windows driver (maybe because the system is assuming that MS is the most trusted provider). Of course, I am able to uninstall third-party drivers, but I'm not ready to delete the driver from Realtek (I tried this however).

    3 following the first solution that I found, that Windows still prefer certified above drivers is not certified. So I came up with an idea to remove the default window driver and disable the function of downloading drivers from Windows Update. It was quite tricky, because I found, I have (the administrator of the system without restriction) am not able to even list the driver file (c:\Windows\System32\drivers\HdAudio.sys), not to mention the actual deletion of the file. It's funny that I managed to the list by using the search function, but I was not yet able to delete, so I rebooted a LiveCD and deleted from there. I also removed copies of the folder in the places, where Windows Update downloads. After that it seems to work fine now.

    4. I suggest Microsoft to release a fix or sth, that will not Windows 7 install the default driver for this particular unit, since it does not work. Or allow users to decide which drivers they prefer to use - even is not certified, because it may not be an isolated case, when a certified driver is not of works, but a certified, does not it is preferred and used. Or force the producers to certify their drivers somehow.

    Kind regards

  • Installed new module memory for laptop, found original was bad, while windows Vista does not start by going blank after the "status bar".

    I have a Windows Vista running on a Sony VIAO laptop and has been updated with level 3 to 4 GB of memory. During the memory test, I found that 2 GB of original module was bad and replace it with the new 2 GB module end back where I started with 3 GB. However, Windows starts only at a little past the rectangle with 3 points moving ("State Bar"?) and them it goes to black and the desktop never appears. I tried to roll back to the last working version of Windows settings, but always the same results.

    What can I do now? Is there a way to check and fix disk errors?  Is it possible to install Windows XP Pro or I have to go to Windows 7.  I even has System Mechanic Pro running on this laptop and it did help some casued the problem. It's as if the disc is damaged for some reason any.  Only with Vista felt this helpless.

    It seems to me that the new memory you have installed is bad or incompatible with the system.  First, remove all chips and reinstall them and then try to make sure that they are correct and secure again - don't just press them in place, effectively remove and the replacement and make sure they are in the right direction.

    Boot from the Installation of Windows Vista genuine disc (or you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc with recovery options included in this topic. If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD (perhaps made on another computer, or perhaps in SafeMode with network if it does not - that would be a good sign if it is true). You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.  Select recovery options and follow the instructions until you see the menu.  Once there, select the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool and run it and see what it says.  If it detects problems (and I suspect it might), you may need to replace the new chip memory.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try other options.

    Good luck!

  • Image portable HARD drive for transfer to the new computer portable HARD drive on the same laptop

    Location:

    Laptop was to receive the new HARD drive more big;

    Configuration is complex and has a lot of data and SW engineering.

    Own re - install would take too long.

    In operating systems earlier I just created an image, installed the new HARD disk and restored the image.

    In Vista, it does not. New HARD drive with image does not start. (Partition is correctly selected as active)

    Tried other methods, including Robocopy but without success.

    Sysprep is the right solution? If so, how will this affect users profiles and installed applications?

    Thank you

    Paraxis

    Hi Paraxis,

    Whenever we use the system image and restore from it, the hardware must be same, as has already been made to backup. The hard disk partition should also be in the same size.

    You can use Sysprep on your computer and check if that helps you solve the problem.

    Preparation system (Sysprep) tool is a technology that you can use with other deployment tools to install Windows on new hardware, operating systems. The Sysprep tool prepares a computer for imaging of disc or delivery to a customer of the configuration of the computer to create a new computer security identifier (SID) when the computer is restarted. In addition, the Sysprep tool cleans up user-specific and settings specific to the computer and the data that should not be copied to a destination computer.

    Access the links below for more information on Sysprep.
