  • I want to clone my original equipment existing 500 GB HARD drive to a new 1 TB HARD drive replacement. How?

    G ' Day,.

    I'm getting too big for my old 500 GB HARD drive, so I bought a new 1 TB HARD drive.

    Now I have all of the rescue disks that I made when I first got my laptop Compaq Presario CQ57-105TU . I could use them & fresh install all software & original OS, but then I have to start from scratch and re-install all the software I have installed, in addition to redo all adjustments & changes I made to the Windows 7 operating system since the first day - a year ago.

    Not really how I want to spend the next week or two around.

    I would like to clone the orig 500 GB HDD & all of its content to a new 1 TB of HARD drive.

    Sounds like where I want to go, but for 1 small question. I heard that if I just I'll have about 500 GB of space available new but I was also told that I will not be able to create new partitions of disk on the new HARD drive because of any existing partitions on the original HARD disk are created.

    1. is this true?

    2. in the case, where can I find a failsafe procedure to accomplish the clone, & then create 2 new partitions to cover the free space on the new drive.

    3. If so, is there a work around? If there is what is the procedure (plse give me cramps of brain with the jargon of techno... tnx)

    Some additional information that might be important.

    At the present time, my HARD drive has this configuration:

    Now that (Q) Local drive is diferent.  It shows 0 bytes available & 0 bytes used, & I don't have access to it.

    Computer of my wife... another laptop CQ62 model... also has the same drive,

    but hers is labeled as Microsoft Office 2010 Starter... as 0 bytes available & used - also no access, & as below, not showing is not in Dmgt.

    This drive does not appear in my Configuration of MANAGEMENT OF RECORDS : http://i.imgur.com/r4LPrDa.jpg

    Thanks for your time & consideration... Bobby

    Him early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese

    OK...'s done it!

    I used my CLONING HDD DOCKING STATION friends exactly like this, but he bought from a different seller 2 years ago.

    All I did was take my 500 GB drive original & placed in A slot (the front slot - Master) & I placed the new Toshiba 1 TB disk in slot B (the second slot behind Slot A... Middle - Slave). I turned the power on the box. I waited until readers spun & were ready, & I don't have a press the red button on the box...

    25% light started to blink & cloning began...

    About 40 minutes later 50% light began to Flash & the 25% brightness has remained stable.

    This means that 25%of the process has been done, & he went to 50%. .

    This sequence was continued until finally all the lights were on fixed (25% to 100%) which means that the clone was complete.

    I think it took about 2 hours and 15 minutes to clone completely.

    I closed the box power off. Then, I removed the two discs.

    I installed the new drive in the laptop carefully, & reinserted the battery, & I plugged power/charger/adapter sector of the laptop.

    Then, I ran into my fingers & press work / laptop computer shutdown.

    A few seconds my laptop has been as always to initialize.  I just had to check to make sure that I have installed the new drive... & Yes the one on the desk was the original, no doubt which means that my laptop startup disk was indeed the new drive I cloned just to.

    My laptop is started without fault!  without a hitch. Just as he always had.

    I used my computer management Administrative tool - disk management & made a simple volume for the 450 + GB of free space, affecting the next letter available player - in my car (F) case & I named it so.

    Everything worked perfectly, I can read & write on the new partition/volume. As I mentioned previously, I probably won't be able to start from scratch, but my drive (C), but it's fine for me.

    So, what have I learned?

    Well, first of all, my Compaq Presario CQ57-105TU can go to 1 TB of HARD drive without modification.

    Using the cloning method, I did no doubt saved full at least 1 weeks of resettlement work if I selected the new installation method using backup/rescue disks when the computer was first, I created started way back when.

    Outside the 2 + hours time, it took to clone the drive, 15 +/-minutes initially to remove & reinstall the drive, & the time it took to assign the new free space a drive letter (every 5-10 minutes) the procedure was clearly simple cut, I know could have been done differently, but not as simply as the method I chose.

    Pepe, thank you much for the time you spent researching my issues & responding to my message.

    I'm so glad all your fears & roadblocks have been made not, & in the end, it was possible to accomplish the task against our initial concerns - count in a very loose way with the greatest ease.

    Here are some pictures of the Station of Clone (the box) exactly like the one I used:

    Congratulations to all,

  • Need to "downgrade" my Compaq Presario CQ57 of Windows 8

    A few weeks ago, I upgraded my Presario CQ57 to Windows 8.  Well, I don't like her, and I now have a desktop computer that is anyway a touchscreen that works beautifully.  I thought about my computer limited knowledge that I had created the backup disks to restore my system to Windows 7 Home Premium, but it turns out it's a repair disc.

    Is it possible for me to order the right from HP disk to return my laptop for Windows 7?  I found something on the internet with this post: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-e-g/The-Cleanest-Install-Windows-7-Recovery-D...

    I don't know what to do.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Hello:

    Please read the info on the link below to see how to order for your PC recovery disc:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/bph07143

    I believe that my instructions are easy to follow to make your own install of W7 media, if you do more like that.

    You can also make your own regular install of W7 disc and allows to reinstall windows 7 If you can read the product key 25 character microsoft on the COA sticker on the case of the PC. You will have none of the programs supplied with the PC using this method, however.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • Compaq Presario CQ57: bios error 501

    What should I do to get rid of this problem?  Please help me someone.

    Welcome to the community of HP @ANAKONDA support,

    Thank you for joining on the HP's Support Forums! It is a great place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! I read your post on the Forums of HP Support.

    I wanted to join you and help! I understand that you have a problem with an APPLICATION (501) BIOS ERROR on your Compaq Presario CQ57 laptop PC.

    Remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, because they can cause some problems.

    Try starting your laptop normally after having disconnected all. If that does not solve the problem, please continue with troubleshooting.

    The next step would be for you to try to restore the BIOS. You will see that the document says:

    If the BIOS of your laptop becomes corrupted, and a failure to upgrade the BIOS or damage caused by a virus, the computer can display all the following symptoms:

    • The computer displays the error message from the BIOS APPLICATION ERROR 501.

    After restoring the BIOS see if you can start the computer normally.

  • CQ57-339wm driver does not work

    I work with someone who has a CQ57-339WM (serial 5CB2050K51, product QE264UA) that is out of warranty and had a faulty hard drive. They do not have to burn recovery discs.

    I reinstalled Win 7 Home, installed the current ethernet driver, made all the important updates Win 7. I then started trying to get the wireless to run. I installed the Realtek driver and I can get the light on the keyboard to toggle the white amber.

    1. when I look at all of the network connections, he says he's there, but not connected.

    2. the properties of material shows "the device functioning.

    3 when I do a diagnosis on the connection, windows responds with "there could be a problem with the driver for the wireless network connection card.

    4. I do the ' try these repair as an administrator "and get"the wireless network adapter problems. "

    So, how to do a good install driver for this device.

    I have to mention that I tried the other two drivers listed for this model and installers wireless just nonsense without any message, so IO am assuming that this realek driver is good. It is the only one that will be installed.

    Thank you very much.

    I had already deleted the driver and reinstalled, but was not any available radio to do as you suggest.

    But, I have re - reinstall Win7 and then installed the wireless driver that you accessed as the first thing (before the wired pilot, before the windows updates).

    I now have a working wireless network!  Do not know what has been breakinbg the driver, but this sequence worked better than what I have described in the opus
