Defective hp pavilion g6/hard disk drive

Really, I don't want to buy a new hard drive, hard drive of my hp pavilion g6 a year, it has already failed is now funny windows 8. Whenever I start my laptop it gives me an urgent message indicating: "Hard drive faliure and error, back up computer immediately and replace the hard drive." It seems that everything laptop I've ever bought only lasts a year, I don't do any change which file or something like that. My children have a few games sims 3 on the laptop and I took my laptop in the pc world to see if they have been slowing down or gong to ruin the laptop, but the employee assured me that nothing would happen to her. And now it's come along, im not really at a point where I can splash a lot of money on a new laptop computer. It is better to go just to get a mac from apple because they guarantee a longer life of the computer and cost less in the long run? Please help, you can find me a cheap solution for this problem?

Mine lasted 8 months before getting the imanent of hard drive failure. And the laptop is so hot, he could give you the 2nd degree burns. I am on a fixed income and could not really afford the computer first and then make fail after only minimal use. I tried to contact h.p. never got an answer or anything, and by the look of it online, it happened to many people. I was vary loyal to a brand once I use and a similar product, but I don't ever see myself buying a HP product again. And im sure it through at least 15 laptops more in my life!

Looks like that should have been a recall on them, the exhaust system is designed under.

  • Satellite L500 - hard disk drive partitioning

    Hi all (first posting times)

    I came across a little curiosity. Bought new laptop everything installed, then loaded into all the previous laptop backup files, brilliant all work...
    But then noticed was running out of space on the hard disk (drive C)?

    Why? It is a 500 GB hard drive. So I checked. Its actually a HDD 500 gig, divided into two, also. OK, understand that, first partition is C: for all files of system etc, there is d: recovery of files (using about 8 gig) then nothing else... what a mess.

    So the question, can I do the largest C: drive by reducing the D: partition? If NOT, it would make more sense then just make another partition E: for example?

    Oooh and I will make the recovery of files from damage by doing this.

    All your advice much appreciated kind.

    If it is not broken... your cheek is not hard enough *.

    Why are you doing this so complicated? HARD drive has two partitions, and you can use all that space. Toshiba has saved the recovery image of HARD drive on the second partition, but this does not mean that you are not allowed to save your data there. You can do but just don't touch or change folder HDDRecovery. Just leave it there, or make it invisible.

    This file can be used later for the installation of HARD disk image - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm
    Imagine the following situation:
    You save all your stuff on the C partition and one day for some reason you cannot boot OS and it is completely unusable. What you can do? Maybe install OS again. OK good idea, but you will lose all your important data.

    In order to better is to save all the stuff on the D partition, and if something goes wrong, you can install OS using HARD drive recovery facility. This means that C partition will be formatted and clean the OS installed on it by using the image of the D partition. The point is that any data saved to the D partition will be there and you won't lose anything.

    If you want to install the OS via recovery DVD (hopefully you have created the) the whole HARD drive will be formatted and you will lose all saved data.
    I hope you understand now how it works then think of all the important data and save it as with certain external devices too.

  • I need the driver for my external HARD disk drive

    Hi how are you?

    Well, I would like to know I do an external drive using the portable hard drive whose name is "Toshiba MK8034GSX" which is with a capacity of 80 GB.
    A few days back I plugged to the USB port with my pc but after that it says need driver and I n t have the HARD disk driver.

    So kindly if anyone has the driver or know the link where I can find the driver then tell me I will be very grateful to you all.

    With regard to:

    Martine André

    Hello

    What is a USB HDD?
    You n t need any driver, and there is no drivers for an external USB HDD.

    The USB driver is part of the Windows OS and it s already installed.
    The USB HDD must be fitted with a plug & play device which means that should be recognized automatically after you connect to the laptop USB port.

    What OS you have and what laptop is it?
    The operating system is up to date?
    USB ports are correctly listed in the Device Manager?

    Hi dynamitenews

     

    1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
    2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

     

    You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

    Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

    If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.

    BIOS WARNING-
    Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

     

    I hope this helps.

  • Windows 7 is my CD/DVD in the hard disk drive

    The original hard disk drive has been damaged, and I replaced it the installation a professional version of windows 7, 32 bit.

    I used prior to windows Vista, and everything worked very well. now, with Windows 7 can not format my drive CD/DVD or CD/DVD read/write.

    I tried before solving the problem using Microsoft Fix it but failed.

    Please, I need your help!

    OK what I mean try, reboot your system with the Windows cd again and see if your dvdrwe drive cannot read the disc. Unfortunately, you can have a bad disk but before ruling out, you need to do some troubleshooting steps more. Did you try and install your DVD - RW drive on another pc will exclude both software and hardware, or if you can install another drive on your pc. Good luck

  • Pavilion dv6: hard disk gets stuck in a "loop", the private resources applications

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 (dv6-6145dx) with 4 GB of RAM and Windows 7 x 64 installed, 500 Gb HD (Hitachi , 40% brand free).  It worked very well for a time very, very long time.  Recently installed Office 365 month last for professional use, which I was concerned might be a resource hog, but usually works very well.  I also AVAST! Antivirus Pro is installed.

    Last week, I started noticing a strange problem that I had not seen before.  Some applications have become desensitized.  I noticed the hard drive light was constantly.  So I tried to close some applications (including Outlook), thinking that I was running resources.  But the deadlock problem continues.

    Listening to the hard drive, I could hear this "stuck in a loop.  Something like "click-[bunch of quick clicks] - click-click-[break].  Repeats every 2 seconds.  Continues to go on and on.  If I leave the computer alone for about 15 ~ 20 minutes, I discover it has recovered.  But once I run the intensive program of any disk, this repeats itself.  It doesn't matter if it's a 3rd team application or system (such as the launch of Event Viewer).

    To try to limit this, I started in safe mode with network.  I thought that if it was driver related, it wouldn't happen.  I launch the event viewer and still, the loop of the hard drive goes.  All gloomy.

    My antivirus is up to date. I ran a full scan of the system (F2) and no errors.  I ran the monitor resources and Process Explorer in the hope of identifying what that either method was this... couldn't see just guilty.  I also created a new user and logged in with this account... has always been able to experience this problem.  It is therefore not associated user account.

    I'm at my wit's end.  I am grateful that I have another computer I can use, but this should not be the case.

    Anyone who is familiar with this kind of hard disk behavior consumes resources?

    "If you keep an open mind, life will give you more opportunities."

    I ran another system test and eventually got more details:

    "Disk hard Test" failed

    "Fast hard disk 1" (303)

    "Complete hard drive 1" (305)

    OK, so from what I've found, it's a serious error means that the hard drive has failed.

    He is a computer 4 years.  I never had a hard disk failure in a laptop before, and I had many laptops up to nearly 8 years, without any hard drive problem.  The drive inside is manufactured by Hitachi... they don't exactly have the best reputation.  Anyway, all the research that I have met never goes into detail as to what might have caused the failure and if some readers have a reliability problem.  The answer is always "you need to replace your hard drive."

    Anyway, I will not try to diagnose it further.  I send my laptop in for repair (still under warranty - exhausted soon, phew!).

  • Cannot access the HARD disk drive HARD - Satellite P300 recovery

    Hi all

    I want to perform a Toshiba product recovery, using the partition on the HARD disk. I did it before and no problem.

    But when I press F8--> computer repair--> selection language--> then I have to select a user (Administrator / my name/guest) when I select the administrator, it says that my account has been disabled, when I select the user with my name (Kenneth) he continues to the menu where I can choose the different options for recovery. If I select the product Toshiba blah blah thingy a screen comes up saying it can't find 01 HARD drive. I did nothing with the partition containing Vista.

    My guess is that I need to log in as an administrator, which is impossible. My user account in Vista is a Director,

    Can someone please?

    I use a P300

    Best regards

  • failure of hard disk drive necessary to reinstall WinXP Home on replacement HARD drive

    I have an of Western Digital HARD drive with my system of operating XP Home 32-bit installed on my primary C: drive.

    I have run the Diagnostics tool online to WD for the reader who found intractable errors on the disc, which indicates an imminent drive failure and an email their technical support confirms the disk needs to be replaced SOON before she completely fails.

    I copied all personal off the drive failed on another drive good files and am now ready to remove the failed drive and install a new replacement main primary HDD and then reinstall my XP Home on it - so - until I started to do this thinking, I would ask for tips in anticipation of a smooth, re - install on the new drive.

    I got a 25 character key and proof of 8-character license key. There is a Microsoft sticker on the back of the pc (that I do not see to read right now, but its there).

    So, I remove the old drive and fit the replacement drive and this format and then install my XP Home - can we see a particular problem with activation?

    concerning

    Depending on whether you have a recovery CD suitable for activation key for your sticker or not, there are three possible courses of action. Each activation of the path should not be a problem unless this procedure has been done several times or your 25-character key fell into the wrong hands.

    If you do not have a recovery CD

    I hope that your original drive will have a recovery partition or the means to create a recovery CD. If you can create recovery media do now. In the contrary case and the original disc has a recovery partition make a clone of the original hard disk sector by sector to your new car now. If the clone is successful, i.e., that there are no unreadable sectors, is perhaps the best way to proceed in any case, especially if your PC is in good health other than the imminent failure of your HARD drive. If the clone does not work out, you can always fall back on the new installation. The advantage of a clone is that there is no re-setup software to (updates Windows or Office to give just two examples) and didn't need to be restored. I paid for the partitioning/cloning software and have no experience of all freebies out there to make recommendations, perhaps 10crackers can help with this.

    If you have managed to create a recovery media, you can use it instead of cloning.

    If you clone successfully you can just use it as is, or use the built-in recovery partition that you just cloned to do a clean install.

    If you don't have a recovery media and cannot create an and is unable to successfully clone

    You will have to contact the manufacturer of your PC to see if they can provide recovery media.

  • Hard disk drive bad, need to use e-recovery in new HD

    They gave me a laptop aspire v5 - 122p and the ALT + F12 for internal recovery does not work. The hard drive and the partition seems corrupt and damaged. Windows 8, try to start, but a message said: there was something wrong and that he will try hard to adapt but it restarts and do the same thing in a loop. I scanned the hard drive with an application which allow me to run it from a bootable usb flash drive. The hard drive came with errors in the sector.

    If I install a new hard drive, I can order an erecovery disk and install all or what I need to do something special? I read somewhere that own hard discs must be prepared initially with another set of tools provided by Acer. The tools provided in the link are in a named ISO "Format CD".

    Yep, it's possible and an unallocated HARD disk is preferable in some cases.

  • Is it Possible to share a HARD disk drive (with a KNOWN password) protected between ThinkPads?

    Greetings,

    I spilled a drink sweet in my X 200, fence it beyond all repair.  The X 200 hard drive has ONLY one disk HARD password bios I created and you know.  To try to recover my files from hard drive of the X 200, I removed the disk and inserted into my T60.  When I turned on the T60, I got the usual HARD disk password prompt.  However, when I entered the password (all tiny, no special characters or non-English speaking, and which I know is quite OK), I had the symbol of the incorrect password.  I turned off the machine and repeat this process.  After the second attempt, I saw the password prompt with a closed hand.

    Later, I followed a procedure recommended by Lenovo to clear the password (do not think that I am allowed to post a link): enter the password followed by a space.  That did not work.

    I wonder if HARD drive pasword protected drive of the X 200 is somehow related to this particular machine and can not, as I had always supposed, be exchanged in another machine and accessible by entering the correct password.

    I also wonder if I can have permanantly me locked out the reader by making too many attempts "invalid."

    (Edited to add additional information and to make the more descriptive subject that it was originally).

    LongtimeTPOwner, welcome to the forum,

    Sorry to hear about your situation remove the password must be possible in another X 200 or even another ThinkPad at the same time system for example, T400, T500,... etc.

    A consideration that you would like to take a look is the password parameter in the menu BIOS password; If it is set differently on the T60 of how this has been put on the X 200 it could present problems according to the password used, especially if it's "special characters".

    Edit; typo
