Defective sectors may need to be replaced

As the title suggests I recently had a new error pop up when you try to run the HP diagnostic utility, on my HARD drive now I was informed that since my DST SHORT diagnostic equipment is not, I should have to replace my HARD drive soon. Since the light that I ran across many tools and utilities available for windows check here is a known like HDtune

However, even after reading this I wanted to be sure so I ran a chkdsk command

now with that done I don't know if I have bad sectors. Or if I managed to transfer the data on bad sectors in good, now I can copy my drive to a good new HD and should have no errors?

Hello

That's right, and errors of the DST are not transferable from one HARD disk to another... so that you can really move forward and to copy your data to the new HARD drive with any problem

  • HP Pavilion 15-p157na: defective laptop keyboard - needs to be replaced

    Good evening.

    Have a HP Pavilion 15-p157na with a defective keyboard, probably because of water damage.  The usual kind of associated problems that (some keys do not work, some are the symbol of bad etc.).

    I want to fix, and a previous thread showed me http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04324972 as a guide on how to disconnect the top plate.

    My questions are;

    (a) is it possible to replace just the keyboard without having to replace the top plate - what digital keyboard part do I need?

    (b) If this is not possible and I need a whole new top plate, where I'd get a / what is the part number?

    Thank you

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See page 19 and 20. HP catalogs the part the top of cover everything including keyboard and exactly what one you need depends on the color of the chassis and the language of the keyboard. Third party service providers will sell just the keyboard and it is inseparable from its hood. See p. 70. The manual does not show the removal of the keyboard of his hood then you will need to return it and examine it. We usually got him with some few screws and hooks that are perhaps shortly Ribbon.

    This would be the black US keyboard under the top cover (frame):

  • trackpad's battery down much more often than in the past.   What needs to be replaced the batteries or the charger?   Where online can I do this purchase, can't find it.  Thank you

    Hi, the trackpad batteries are unloaded much faster than in the past.  I reload and replace them and they quickly weaken.   What needs to be replaced, the batteries or the charger.   Tried to look on the apple website to purchase and find nothing (there must be there somewhere).  Thank you.

    They may well be replaced.   Take a look at this document.    iFixit are well known in these columns.

  • Need advice on replacing hard drive Toshiba

    I have other manufacturers with a 60 GB MK6021GAS HDD Toshiba laptop. According to me, the hard disk is endangered and I want to shoot anything on the restore disc to another new. I need everything from the disk because the OS image is one that has been charged by the company, with that I have a contract and apparently the standard that came with the laptop is not compatible with their applications that I have also loaded on the laptop.

    I don't want to travel more than 100 miles in business COMPUTING of offices to have another OS loaded on the new drive I did not, so what I guess I want to do is to create an accurate picture of the existing drive, then restore the image to the new drive when I get it.

    I tried to make an image of the disc using Paragon exact Image 7 SE, but download from the failed hard drive on a dump of DVD disc fails consistently, after copying 1.6 Go Go 8,32, the statement that the hard drive is damaged.

    Another piece of software, Active SMART also reports that of the disk failure is imminent, reporting a status of 'Bad' for this disc. I have run chkdsk many times over the past months on the hard drive and on a few occasions, he isolated the defective sectors. So, everything indicates that the days of the disk being really numbered.

    I want to be able to do is buy another unit of MK6021GAS HDD and get all the files from that defective to the new without having to reload the operating system, data software application etc.

    Is this possible? If Yes, what is the best way? How can I get all of the disc if this software Paragon doesn't let me extract everything? Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
    Phil.

    Hi Phil,

    Your problem seems to be that certain parts of your drive hard existing cannot be read and thus your attempts to copy the data on the drive will fail. You will need to use a suitable backup utility must take into account segments on your drive so that you can get a copy of safety as much as possible your system.

    I know that Norton Ghost has the option to ignore bad sectors when you take a backup (I myself have used in the past). You could then do a restore of the magnified image to a new disk, but if ignored bad sectors were in a critical area of the operating system, then you still have problems after restoring.

    Alternatively, you can copy both of your personal folders as possible to an external support and then reinstall your OS from scratch even if obviously would need you a valid drive of installation/recovery of Microsoft (or OEM). You can then restore your personal files.

    Here are the instructions to burn a bootable cd with the recovery console, you do not have installation cd.

    Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd

    Courtesy of JoseIbarra

    You need start by booting in XP using a CD Recovery Console, you can do (no XP media required) and run a chkdsk with error correction command enough times until it is clean and if it does not, you can create a new boot.ini file (this is usually one of two things).

    Here's how:

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget what you have (no XP media required).

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    RC. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.thecomputerparamedic.com/?p=8    (courtesy of Daavee)

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient. If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    you will need to burn the cd from a working pc

  • How will I know when my PC battery needs to be replaced

    Windows Vista sp1 - Home Premium 32 bit IE 8 not networking

    How can I know when / if my PC battery needs to be replaced? Computer has been installed may 2008

    Hello.

    There is not a really good to this answer unless you notice that the battery life is much shorther immediately when you first purchased the machine.

    Computer manufactureres that batteries in laptops are parts that suffer from wear, to this effect, there is only a 1 year warranty on it, opposes the computer that may have 2 or 3 years warranty.

    When a battery is 3 years old, very often, it will be shown signs of wear as fast discharge and the computer to stop suddenly even if it is 10 to 30% remaining battery life. When these events occur, it is time to put in place a new battery.

    Because your computer is 2008, and I guess you have not replaced your battery since then, I would say it might be time to change, but if you experience any of the symptoms I described above, or that doesn't bother you, there is not no need to replace it yet.

  • I tried fixing to uninstall Firefox reinstall that did not work. I always get the same error message: Firefox has stopped working. May need to change!

    I'm not the only one having this problem why Mozilla does not do something? I'm fed up about & may need to change to another browser! Firefox is the best browser I've ever had, but not more! Here I could go back to the old version - it worked great! The new version is when I started having this disorder.
    Time for Mozilla to step up & get that a difficulty or you will lose more than me I think! I disabled real arcade & most of the other modules. That did not help either.

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    If you need assistance for updating BIOS (Basic Input Output System), I recommend you contact the manufacturer of your computer to update the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) & check if the problem persists.

    Note: Changing the BIOS / chipset can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/chipset can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Hope the helps of information.
