Compaq presario cq57-339WM does not recognize the drive as a bootable disk recovery

Compaq presario cq57-339WM does not recognize the drive as a boot drive recovery, I'm sorry people, I searched and I entered the job in New York as a matter of research. Operating system is 7 Home premium. Hard drive went bad, so I rplaced with new. I have had I have windows image backup, but the wizard could not find the hard drive. I ordered the HP poped the first of the two recovery disks, but the machine does not recognize the drive as a bootable disk recovery. I did factory retrieve records a large number of times on computers with different operating systems and have never seen this. TNA

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

  • IS does not recognize the drive HARD internal

    I have three, all from a school lab, that have been linked with other positive points and printers.

    They are connected are not together anymore.

    All three have a floppy drive and a HARD drive. Will only boot from the HARD drive.

    At startup, the other two do not recognize their HARD drive and I use ea disk with the system in this regard.

    Since hard drives are not 'seen' I am unable to do anything with them: fix, set up as a boot drive, etc.

    They begin with the usual chimes and the Mac with the question mark, I slip the disk in and they complete commissioning.

    The internal drive spin up and the indicator light flashes.

    They do not show the drive HARD internal on the screen, but will show an external.

    I haven't started to swap parts between the good and the other two.

    Does anyone have an idea on how to activate an invisible HARD drive?

    You will need to use the boot floppy disks to start the machines to run the repair disk, partition and format the HARD drive if it is still functional. Only then can you install Mac OS on the HARD drive. That's all that I remember.

  • Satellite Pro A10 does not recognize the drive WEIRD AD - 7540A model

    Hi all.

    I just bought a new model slimline DVD rewritable AD - 7540A, brand Sony NEC Optiarc. When it is plugged into the computer laptop and for the POST, it appears the 'IDE #1 error' message after the operating system starts, I am unable to open the drawer and no CD/DVD can be read.

    I checked this drive on another laptop from another brand, and it works fine, so the problem is not in the drive itself. Could someone help me?

    Thanks in advance.

    The problem is simple.
    Your phone does support not all readers of CD/DVD slimline because different or bad master/slave/c-salt settings.

    The IDE #1 error message indicates that the BIOS cannot recognize the device connected to the #1 IDE controller.

    In your case, the solution is simple; you need to buy a compatible CD/DVD player and supported

    Mayen a user manual would provide details on the management of records.
    If not, then contact the ASP in your country and ask some compatible devices!

  • Y410P does not recognize the drive HARD and "Bad sector found" errors

    Hello, having problems with my son's laptop. He has recently updated to Win10 and after a day, the computer would not boot and did not recognize the existence of an operating system. I was able to create a bootable USB 8.1 and the operating system is now operational. However, there is no reconition of the HARD drive only SDS. The BIOS shows as available but who runs the Lenovo's Diagnostics tool (results below) translates into bad sector errors. Is there a way to recognize/recover the drive or do I need to replace? Thanks in advance. Cheers, Dave

    Thank you for the interpretation. Is there something specific that allows me to know that the ST1000LM024 of HARD drive is defective? I guess that I'lll need something to get a claim under warranty. Thanks again.

    The last part of your post (smart test) says that it is defective. To confirm this further you can try to physically remove the hard drive and connect it to another computer as an external drive or a secondary drive for further tests using the manufacturer's diagnostic program. BTW, Seagate is the manufacturer of the disk hard so that you can go to their site and download their program.

    You can search by part number, I guess HP store parts shows, it is no longer available at HP.

    The problem is that none of us are 100% positive, the drive is bad.
