Computer laptop HP G60 after start questions

I hope that one of the experts are able to help with my problem.

Laptop is about 4 years old.  It starts normally but then frozen until I made a forced stop.  When restarting it says Windows does not start and I need to perform a startup repair.

Like others, I had a list of options, including a complete system restore, but I don't want to do this without exploring all the options.  I tried to restore to a different point, but it does not work.

Finished the Startup Repair and it said to restart... didn't work.  Done this 5 times with the same result.

I read another post to enter the Bios and test on the memory and the hard drive:

Memory - past

Hard drive - Fail #1-07

The question is, now what?

Hello

4 years is probably somewhere near the life expectancy of a mechanical HARD drive, but there is no hard and fast - rule some may fail much sooner, while others may still be Ok 8 years +.

As long as the HARD drive has not failed completely, here are some options that you can try to recover your data.

1. one possible way to try to recover your files from a disk non-boot is to follow the process described in the link below.  The CD of the Ubuntu operating system you create can launched from the CD alone (IE it doesn't have to be installed on the hard drive) and I've often found to successfully extract data even a hard failure.  When you created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can save your existing files.

2 another option would be to remove the drive HARD, place it in an external enclosure - is an example of the link below - connect to another PC and see if you can access your files.

External 2.5 HARD drive caddy ".

Regarding replacing the HDD - the reader at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

Hard drive 320 GB

The procedure to replace the hard drive is detailed from Page 51 in your & Maintenance Guide.

It does not resemble HP stock still the recovery media for your laptop, but it's always worth calling them just in case where - contact HP here.

It can also be useful calling 3rd party reseller on the link below, even if the Nr gives no results.

    If your computer is bad, you need to do a system restore. Since it seems that you can not stop, try to hold the power button until it turns off. If this does not work, unplug (if laptop, remove the battery).

    From there on, allows to do a restore:

    1. turn the computer on and start to tap F8 to get the start menu
    2. Select repair your computer
    3. Select System Restore
    4. Follow the prompts

    If the restore point is older, feel free to use the Scan for affected programs feature to make sure that no other programs are affected. Otherwise, I would make a note of it, as it will have to reinstall these programs. In addition, I was running updated Windows once your system working again, since you will most likely use a restore point set up just before an update. (no point in re-opening of a security breach)

  • Computer laptop Compaq could not start

    My laptop model is Compaq Presario CQ40-502AU. I used it for over 2.5 years.

    Recently, the laptop could not start from time to time. The LED flashes to keep, but the laptop does not start.

    Referring to this article:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01732674

    I preformed hard reset and manged to get the laptop starts. However, the problem after several days reappered and perform a hard reset is not enough to start the laptop. Sometimes, I need to do the hard reset many times to start the laptop.

    I recorded a video on the State of Flash of the LED.

    https://SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?CID=4aa65a2248b908f1 & RESID = 4AA65A2248B908F1% 21412 & parid = 4AA65A2...

    I don't know if it qualifies as keeps flashing indicating the problem on my adapter?

    Someone please help me on this. Thank you!

    Greetings,

    Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery from the laptop. Once this is done, press in and hold the power button on the PC for a minute. Only reconnect the AC adapter and try to turn the unit back on. If this problem persists, turn off the device by pressing the power button for 8 seconds. Disconnect the power adapter and the battery. Try to start the PC again.

    If the PC starts, during the Compaq logo, press the ESC key to enter the boot menu. While in the boot menu press the diagnostic mode (should be F10) and run a diagnostics of complete systems. That should tell you which device is a failure. I hope it's nothing serious, maybe a defective battery.

    If your system seems to be stable during the startup and shutdown not randomly on its own, I would try to update the BIOS once started in Windows by downloading on:

    Don't forget to follow directions exactly as displayed on the HP site.

    Good luck

  • my computer laptop presario won't start, the screen is black and a shrill alarm sounds when I turn it on

    My laptop is a Presario F700 l PC, Vista operating system.

    We live in Italy and service broadband and wireless local apartment acquired last week.  We also bought and installed a Canon printer.  This computer was used in Italy before.  It was purchased in 2008 and also used in Manila and Yokohama.  I just had 'set to top' and checked before leaving the United States in September.

    I do not have the complete operating manual and I know what a yellow light on the front does mean something but I have no idea what.  The computer has been acting 'strange' for about a week in which he wont 'stay' at the top of a list of e-mail, the Office does not 'click', and it activates a different screen of the selected.

    IM technologically dim and this computer is my only link with "House" and my source of planning in Italy-travel. "  Im trying not to panic.  Thanks for your suggestions.

    Thank you very much for this - it's reassuring to know the resource and quick response is there.  I had already tried a solution I found online fixed 1/2 of my questions, but feel sure that these steps will finish my dose.  Thank you very much.

  • Video laptop G72 dies after start upward

    I have a G72 with the Radeon 5470 gpu.  2 days ago, my wife received a blue screen on Windows 7 x 64, stating that the driver had stopped working.  At go here the G72 not would make on the desktop without the screen goes dead.  The machine starts in safe mode fine.   I tried as much as I could think to solve this problem, but finally backed its data and restored at the factory.   The problem persisted and I ended up disabling the ATI card in the control panel.  The machine seemed to work after that.   I have begain long BONE up to current curing process.  About 2 sets of updates after Win 7 SP1 the problem came back.   I started in safe mode and checked the driver and discovered that it had been reactivated.  I tried to disable it again and reboot.  Sometimes she remains disabled through reboot, but sometimes it isn't.  At this point the machine turns to a black screen (video not only in black but dead) after that I sign.   This was without taking into account the option enable or disable the status on the ATI card.

    Then...   I tried to make another hook the operating system and got to half way through.  Installing Windows now tries to restart and after that the machine is in place, the screen goes dead.

    Any suggestions?   Is there a way to disable the card in the bios?  It can be physically removed the card?

    Thank you.

    Thanks for your help on this.  The hard reset doesn't change anything.

    After about 20 restarts, I could lift the machine with a regular VGA driver and reinstall the driver of IntelHD.  I can now go to full resolution.  I agree that the ATI card is broken.  Probably because of the heat. (just my opinion)

    For all those running in this kind of failure the key here is persistence.  Keep restarting in safe mode and disable the ATI card in Device Manager, and eventually, you will get a clean boot.  Once you have a clean boot, install your Intel drivers and be happy that you have a laptop and not a brick.

    Peace.

    Hello

    This process will allow you to do a Vista repair disc. This isn't an installation disc, but will allow you to use the Vista Recovery Console that is available on commercial versions of Vista.

    Download the file from the link below.

    Vista 64-bit

    It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip, when installed, right-click on the zipped folder, select extract files and then click Ok.  You should now see another folder containing the ISO file.

    You will need software to burn the ISO to a CD.  If you don't have that guy on the software installed, download and install ImgBurn and use it to burn the ISO to a CD.

    Once you have created the Vista repair disk, follow the guide on the link below to see if it undertakes to repair your installation - you may need to run this several times.

  • Laptop keeps freezing after starting

    My laptop (HP pavilion tx2500) keeps freezing after the start, there is no error message warning that the thing just crashes without warning moments after startup, someone had this problem and know how to solve this problem.

    It could be a number of things, then we should try to eliminate some. Try to enter the HP utilities but endearing running tests of disk and tape on the F10 key, I think and hard memory.  Try to run Notepad without the battery installed and just the power adapter.  Try to use one piece of memory and try the two slots. Then try the other room and try the two slots.  If you don't have that one piece of memory, at least try the other location.  Try a hard reset:

  • computer laptop 15-f305dk: support Wizard question

    HP support assistant sent me an urgent message (two exclamation points) saying "significant action" and that the windows firewall is disabled. I checked via the control panel windows firewall and it shows the windows firewall is enabled for public and private networks. Why is HP support assistant telling me that the firewall is off and windows shows the firewall on? Is the firewall enabled or not, and how can I solve this problem?

    If the control panel it shows on so it's on. Sometimes there is a little problem with the wizard help only looking for the (trial) security software that comes on many HP computers. If your machine came with McAfee or Norton Security Suite and that you have uninstalled what may be what support assistant search. Just ignore the warning - should be an option to delete or ignore.

  • laptop stops shortly after the start, but works well in safe mode / command after chkdk or ckdsk/r

    Problem 1: There are months, my two year old Toshiba Satellite L655 s5096 started losing charge the battery even when it is plugged.
    Sometimes, the problem was solved by using a different wall outlet. I replaced the battery, but eventually the problem comes back.

    Problem 2: at the same time that the problems loading starts, Windows has stopped booting normally. Sometimes repair or restoration leads to a normal start, but sometimes I run Chkdsk/r (Chkdsk sometimes the only works [!]) Mode through safe mode w/Command Prompt.

    Problem 3: There are two days of problems 1 and 2 reappeared, but a few minutes after that Windows starts, my machine stops, even if I am able to run Wndows in Mode safe mode w/network.

    I am correct in surmising that this isn't a motherboard (hardware) problem? I don't really want to have to replace this machine if I don't have to. Is this a Windows problem? Upgrade to Windows 8 would solve the problem? Or is it the result of the virus that escaped my Avast scans?

    I'll install Windows 8 when I checked my automatic online data storage works.

    Hi Denise,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forum.

    I understand that the computer shuts down shortly after starting. I'll help you with this problem.

    1. what security software is installed?

    2. are you sure the workload problem is not limited to a faulty wall unit?

    3. have you checked with the manufacturer of the computer if it is not a battery problem?

    To resolve this issue, let us try these methods:

    Method 1.

    You can create a new power plan and check if that helps.

    Power plans: frequently asked questions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows7/power-plans-frequently-asked-questions

    Method 2.

    Keep the battery power: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows7/conserving-battery-power

    Method 3.

    You can remove the battery and connect the power cable from the wall cabinet and check. If the computer does not stop after the restart, then it might be a problem with the battery.

    For any question related to Windows, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help you.
