Brand new dv6t - install Win 7 Ultimate Clean - error "no hard drive found."

Just shot my new w dv6t quad edition / WSSD 32 GB out of the box. Goes for a clean format and install of Win 7 Ultimate. Once started from the bootable DVD, I get an error 'no drives were found. No disks/partitions won't show.

When I start in the existing installation of Win 7 Home Premium and initialize the disc for installation of win 7, there will be readers... but I can not format or delete as a that I need to boot from the disk.

Seems to me like a driver for the WSSD/HARD disk problem. If someone has encountered this? Any help is very appreciated.

SOLVED.

You must open the computer and physically remove the WSSD garbage 32 GB module and disconnect the HDD in RAID mode.  Basically, the computer to get rid of the disease and the setting not save as a standard HARD drive.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS THIS OPTION!

  • Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C660 - 26H - HARD drive not recognized

    I reinstall windows 7 on a Satellite C660 - 26H
    The hard drive failed on this laptop, so I added a new Toshiba 160 GB sata drive.

    When I try to install windows 7 I get the error message

    I get this when I would normally be choose which windows installation disc too. I guess I need driver sata for the laptop?

    Where can I get the driver for this laptop sata?
    Or do I have driver sata for the new hard drive?

    Any help appreciated, thanks!

    Hello

    First check to see if the new HARD drive is listed and recognized in the BIOS. It must appear on the first page of the BIOS.

    If his list, and save the changes by pressing F10 and access to the BIOS.

    I'm not very well if you need the SATA drivers because AFAIK Win 7 should already contain a standard SATA driver from m.

    However, the SATA drivers are on Intel page.
    You should look for Intel Storage Manager.

  • How to install Win 8 on Satellite C850 after HARD drive failure?

    I have a PC repair business and a customer gave me a portable Satellite C850-1 kN which took a catastrophic hard disk failure (just clicking from the road).

    I replaced the hard drive and tried to boot from a DVD 8 Windows, changing the order of startup in the bios, however, it still gives an error message "no boot device."

    I see no way to turn off boot UEFI, it appears grayed out in the configuration of the bios.

    How can I reinstall Windows on this laptop?

    First, you must know that the (CSM/UEFI mode) parameter must be changed if you want to install the system supported UEFI not (Win 7 and higher).
    Win 8 and 8.1 Win are UEFI capable systems and you should be able to use the option to UEFI mode.

    What about the secure boot option?
    Have you found and have you tried to disable this option?

  • Satellite Pro L500-1W4 - cannot install Win 7 Pro after changing the HARD drive

    Hi all

    I need assistance with Windows.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro with Windows 7 preinstalled pro and the recovery DVD to downgrade to Windows XP Pro.
    I had to change the hard drive, so I try to reinstall Windows 7 from the recovery CD, but it does not work. He said that it is not possible to install this on this machine.

    So I tried with Windows XP CD recovery and no problem
    I'd rather have windows Windows 7 but I do not know how to retrieve
    Last information, the Windows XP CD recovery came with the laptop that Windows 7 was made by the store who sold me the computer.

    Thank you for your help
    Julie

    As far as I know there is not a kind of limitation and if there is no problem with the original recovery for Win7 disc, you should be able to install it on any HARD disk that you use with your machine.
    I upgraded HDD to the SSD on my installation of picture machine and the restore worked without any problems.

    To be honest, it is not easy to say what the problem is here, but the Win7 installation disc is somehow suspect for me. I don't know what model of laptop you have exactly, but somehow, I feel you didn t get original drive Win7. Best evidence is the Windows XP Home edition recovery disk. The prinziple with Win7 is the same and it should works.

    When you use this disk you should have the menu as shown on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

    This document explains how this works with the original installation disc of recovery.

  • I had to install Win XP because I replaced my hard drive there SP 1a and I'm trying to update to SP2 and then SP3 - I can't do it via the Windows Update site - do I need to do?

    It's a Dell Dimension 2400 and I have the original CD of the operating system (Windows XP Professional including Service Pack 1a).

    I also have the MS XP product key of the "label" on the side of the computer.

    Also, I use Norton 360 and who will download this machine as soon as I have the other updates that have been completed.

    After you install N360 follow these steps:

    (1) performance "Live update", may need to run it more than once to install the updates. Note: A reboot may be necessary.

    (2) run a "full system scan".

    (3) run a full scan of the "reputation".

    This will reduce the initial impact of any perception of a slowdown in performance. If you have N360V5 you are entitled to a free upgrade to N360V6.

  • Installed Win 7, cannot access encrypted external hard drive?

    Well, here's my sad story of misfortune: I copied all my files (encrypted with EFS, I think) on a hard disk, and then reformatted and installed Windows 7 Professional; not surprisingly, I can't access anything on the disk, because it is linked to my old XP account, now recognized as a unknown user by 7.
    After reading here, I think that I will well and truly up the Creek unless I want to pay hundreds to a data recovery company. Is there anything to do? Thanks in advance.

    You would be wasting your money. EFS is as good as you thought it was when you your files encrypted. Really it protects them from prying eyes.

    Brand new XPS 8900 Win 10 won't turn on, flashes yellow 2 times power made a break of 7 times pauses then resumes.

    I've not seen a chart explaining flashing power on the 8900 XPS button codes. And there is nothing in the Manual.

    You need to contact Dell tech support immediately. You have 21 days from the date of billing (no delivery date) to pick them up. And then you can order another.

    Otherwise, technical support should work with you to solve the problem under warranty on this system.

    If you are comfortable working inside the case, it is possible that something got its place potted during shipping. Then you can try reseating the RAM and PCI-e cards modules and cables between motherboard and drives and connection etc. Don't forget to read the instructions on the inside of your PC use in the manual before opening the case.

  • I want to uninstall this new screen wallpaper changer "Smile" of Webshot to my hard drive.

    Original title: uninstaller

    Hello community,

    I want to uninstall this new screen wallpaper changer "Smile" of Webshot to my hard drive. I tried to do this several times, but each time that the system tells me that the program is running and, therefore, cannot honor my request. The old screen Webshot wallpaper changer has worked well, but something wrong with this new program of replacement, because it seems it is controlling my computer. So, how can I get this piece of my computer without having to wipe the hard drive and reload Windows 7? Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hula Baloo,

    Thanks for the suggestion. However, I found an answer to the same exact question in the forum, April 2011.  As explained, the procedure to stop a running program is very simple (if you know what to do). This forum MS questions / answers is a wonderful virtual community.

    2008 15 "Macbook running OS 10.9.5. Time Machine backups are in agreement, on an Iomega eGo 1 TB external.

    I installed a new SSD (Crucial), but during the restart on the backup drive I get the question mark flashing. Reinstalled the old drive hard and everything is back to the old normal. Any suggestions? Could it have to do with the version of the USB cable? But why no problem with externally in combo with the old drive? Should I put another Time Machine backup on an external new or different, and then try again to install the new drive? I should try a different usb cable that is provided?

    Thanks in advance.

    Works well in general & used for this task a lot. Use the partiton options rather than SSD clone will enable driving a complete copy of all of the source to the target SSD. Don't delete anything since! TB until what you tested SSD clone A1.

  • Local tech installed Windows Vista Home Premium after a hard drive failure. However, my key is Windows Basic. Is the copy, he put on my system illegal?

    Genuine Windows clean install

    Hello

    I had a problem with my laptop Acer Extensa 5230th. It was not started and so I took for Matech computers.  They diagnosed as having a mechanical drive problem.  So they replaced the drive and installed a more recent version of windows vista on.  Note: I haven't bought a new copy of vista family premium, he said he was going to reinstall vista.  It had windows Vista Home Basic, it has installed vista Home premium and said that he had validated by call from windows, but I'm suspicious because I don't think you can use a base of windows key to validate Home premium!  It means that he has put on an illegal version on windows or used the genuine key that came with the laptop.

    In addition, on computers of brands, if this happens again, how is a technician for legally to reinstall the original windows that it came with the new hard drive? How to install windows vista basic on the new hard drive by using the original key to make it genuine? What windows installation disc would you require? or is it easier to just buy a new copy of windows?  I heard that many technicians, prefer to install illegal versions of cracking of windows instead of the customer to buy the new installation of windows.
    Kind regards
    Lewis
