Compaq presario v6000 v6409tu disk hard bios self-test fail

Hello

Windows xp no my pc compaq v6000 not starting and bluescreen showed a couple of times. I ran the BIOS (phoenix) disk hard diagnosis and the test failed. When I opened my HDD I noticed green rust as deposits into the connector on the hard drive. After cleaning with a brush, computer loaded XP successfully. But an hour later, while I was surfing in mozilla suddenly the mouse pointer started late and showed computer blue screen saying that windows has been closed down to prevent damage.

I would be grateful if someone can tell me if it's a software problem or hard drive error. If I need to replace my hard drive, what are my options, for example. rpm, capacity, provider? Thank you.

The only way you could have rusted copper into the connector on the hard drive is if liquid got in there so I am reluctant to try to speculate how much damage has been done. I remove the hard drive and connect it to the outside to another computer and run chkdsk on it to see if the drive itself is bad. As long as there is a problem on the part of connector and the interface with the motherboard cannot really trust the onboard hard drive Diagnostics. You could also get an own another new hard drive adapter.

If it does not turn on the hard drive is bad, you can replace it with any laptop SATA drive no more than 9.5 mm thick.

Above is a good thing. It is slim (7mm) but it will still go into the caddy and connect to the motherboard with the connecting piece. If the hard drive itself is always good, and you replace the connector piece but he always bluescreens, so I would not spend money on a new hard drive. I would say that there was damage to the motherboard.

  • Could not start, laptop computer, disk hard short DTS test failed

    I am currently not able to start my laptop properly. I have a HP Pavillion G6.

    When I start it, it stays on the screen with the HP logo and a black background for awhile and eventually get to a black screen with the cursor visible and mobile, but unable to do anything else.

    I tried to press F11 at startup to restore the factory settings, the system recognizes the key but leads straight to a black screen that I left it for several hours, but nothing happens.

    I have gone on the menu of system diagnostics and run a quick test that revealed the Hard Drive DST short, Check failed.

    Will I need a new hard drive? Or is it possible to fix it?

    If I need a new, where can I get one from?

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    The short drive Self Test (DST) failure would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  This is also consistent with recovery and startup problems you describe.

    If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disk replaced - you can check the status of your warranty here.

    If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

    If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

    If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, please let me know - include the full model number and your notebook series g6 Nr - see here for an explanation.

  • TouchSmart 15-d053cl: disk hard short DST Test failed

    Hello

    Recently, my computer froze completely, and I stopped him with a long press on the power button. When I turned it back on, Windows would not start. It would not start for a very long time and finally the hard drive would become inactive. I open the BIOS diagnostics and ran a test of the system. I got the following error message:

    Test of DST short hard disk failed

    Error code: RLLFTT - 7717 ST-MFKR6J - 60S 003

    Product ID: F5Y25UA #ABA

    Does this mean that my hard drive is defective? Since I've been able to boot into Windows, but it runs a lot slower. Do I need to worry? I ran Chkdsk, but he finds no errors. My files are still in place and I am able to access very well. What should I do about it?

    Thank you!

    Your hard drive is defective and must be replaced.  You can continue to use your system as-is, but it will continue to get slower and, possibly, you will have problems to start as you have done before.  It is recommended that you back up of your data (photos, documents, etc.) on external media (flash drive) and then replace the hard disk.  After replacing the drive hard, you have to reinstall the Windows operating system using the HP recovery media.

    It is not very difficult not expensive to replace the hard drive, so we can walk you through it.  If you are in warranty, you can contact HP for replacement parts.  If you are out of warranty, then you need to buy a replacement hard drive and the HP recovery media.

    Hello

    First thing to do is to make sure that XP drivers are available for your model computer.

    Search drivers XP here model number: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

    Then, buy a XP disk and license. You will have to search in online stores (beware of scams, piracy!), for old copies computer stores, etc.

    Then, if you can buy XP, perform a new installation of XP, Vista operating system cut the hard during the XP installation.

  • HDD self-test - Fail #1-04

    Hello
    I have Pavilion dv9000 series (dv9040eu), all of a sudden, I get the BSOD with impossible to mount the volume message, so I run disk hard test, which returned: # Fail 1-04

    What does this error mean?

    is there a place where I can read the explanations of the error associated with the HARD drive self test?

    I tried running chkdsk/r, but it keep saying "an unspecified error has occurred", also, I managed to get the most important files, with "BartPe" and "GetDataBack".

    Starting recovery console also causes the BSOD with message unmountable_boot_image...

    Any suggestions?

    Many thanks in advance...

    No, a car will be empty, but if you their Envoy the laptop and then they put the reader, they may then be able to do that, but I expect it to be cheaper to just order the recovery DVDs too and DIY.  Because the discs cost a lot of HP, I recommend only the recovery DVD from them and purchase the disc elsewhere.

    Hello

    It simply means: the HARD drive is about to die. Please save all your data if you could and be prepared to replace the HARD drive. Is your machine still under warranty? If so, please contact HP for replacement

  • XPS12 SMART short self-test fail WHD16 LY6

    "When you run the Dell ' Checkup" utility on the SSD drive, the drive will fail with:

    SMART short self-test fails WHD16 LY6

    The remaining tests are ignored. The suggestion is to update the firmware. However, my drive is:

    LITEONIT LMT-256M6M 256GB mSATA

    and I can only find firmware on the Dell site for both LITEONIT SSD 256 GB drives, or precisely what mine are. (Only LITEONIT LCS-256M6S 2.5 256 GB and LITEONIT LMT-256M3M MSATA 256Go are listed).

    I have the latest drivers for the disk (9Q23_Storage_Driver_X6KKJ_WN_11.5.0.1207_A01. (EXE)

    Are there available firmware, and if so where is it please? Otherwise, what is the next step?

    Thank you.

    Thanks, EJN - F12 diagnostics appear clean. I guess that I'm worried about this then.
