• hard drive error code

  My son has a laptop Inspiron 15 with a 500 GB SATA hard drive.   It's a little more of 2 years and is

  little used.

  Recently, it wouldn't boot into Windows.   I was able to run Dell built-in diagnostics and all tests passed,

  except for the hard drive.   Returned message says Error Code: 2000-0151; validation 19717; bad hard drive 3rd = status.

  Any ideas on this subject, other than replacing the hard drive?

  Thank you.

• Drive problem hard "smart hard disk error".

  Hello, about 6 months ago, I bought my HP envy m6-1252so, and since then it has been slow til to get totally stuck showing the "blue screen" error message, a month later, I turned on and showed me the message "no device found", then I went where I bought it and they said it was a software problem. That's why the guarantee would not fix because it takes that hardware problems (I have 3 years warranty). A friend, who is a maintenance-pc professional told me that the hard drive has problems and he screwed up, he has absolutely everything deleted hard disk ensuring that it would be totally free from virus and he reinstalled windows saying that I'm having the same problem soon, I had since re - install windows all almost 2 weeks because that the problem won't let me run windows showing me the message "error of. smart disc"and it could not connect to windows. My question is how could get my replacement of hard disk without having the same answer "it's a software problem?

  Sincerely, Milton.

  Milton,

  The "SMART Hard Disc Error' returned by your computer indicates that the hard disk has failed or is about to fail. Please see test of hardware failures (Windows 8) and/or test a hard drive in the BIOS for instructions on testing your computer for a hard disk failure. If the error codes are returned or a test does not complete, please contact the official HP support in your region / country, via the Portal to support HP worldwide, to file a warranty claim.

  You will need to use the HP recovery media, you created when you first set up your computer to restore the computer to a factory state after the hard drive has been replaced. If you create your personal HP recovery media, also contact HP support in your region / country, to see if the HP recovery support is available for your computer.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• HP Pavilion 15-n007sr: hard drive error

  My laptop HP Pavilion 15-n007sr fails to load Windows. I ran diagnostics and got an error. HP UEFI diagnostics for hard drive has failed in the short DST test with failure code rg817g-71s7gs-mfpwxf - t 60, 903. Does this mean I need to replace my hard drive?

  Hello

  Unfortunately, it's - the error code 24 characters for short drive Self Test (DST) would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

  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, let me know.

  Kind regards

  Note: If one or more files on the hard disk are open, you will receive the following message is displayed:

  a. Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. You want to schedule this volume to check the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

• Hard drive error, but passes diagnostic

  I have a vostro 320 all in one computer. Yesterday he left initializing with a hard drive error, but when I run the hardware diagnostics all past. When I go into the installer the Bious does not see the hard drive. Current Bious is 1.2.0 and current is 1.4.0.

  If the BIOS does not see the hard drive, no - you will need to replace the disk.

  You can take a chance on the resettlement of the player (unplug the system and disconnect and reconnect the hard drive), but if so, it is not detected by the system, it is toast and needs to be replaced.

  Hello

  Error code 24 characters will be a Smart failure or disk Self Test - in both cases, this would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

• Satellite L350 - persistent master hard drive errors

  I've known persistent main hard disk errors. Errors, in their first incarnation, were windows freeze at loading screens and screensavers, and then developed by stopping Windows to boot at all. It certainly would not start normally and sometimes would not start in safe mode. I used the recovery partition to restore the computer to its factory settings. A day or two later, the same symptoms began to manifest again, although not as severely. The hard drive errors, freeze on screens and loading screen savers.

  My question is: if I re - format the hard drive master, thus destroying the recovery partition, I could then just restore windows from a newly formed recovery CD? And, in addition, what is the probability that reformatting the drive hard completely would have an effect on the frequency of errors?
  If the hard drive is simply borked, format or not? And if yes, what is the next step?
  Could I restore windows on my drive hard slave and give up on the master?

  Thanks in advance.
  Mike

  Hey Buddy,

  Are you sure that all these problems related to the HARD drive at 100%? How did you check that?

  I don t mean it s not the HARD drive, theoretically, you could be right but before you think to change the HARD drive please use a diagnostic tool special for HDD as Drive Fitness Test:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/support/downloads/#DFT

  This tool can check your HARD drive for bad sectors.

  If the HARD features of bad sectors disk, formatting will not help you because the sectors are physically damaged. With other words, the only chance is to exchange it.

  But if you have already used the recovery feature of HARD Toshiba drive to reinstall Windows you can say s that no problem of software and it must be hardware related. ;)

• New drive HARD & OS errors-> HP 8000 Elite Small Form Factor PC

  New drive HARD & OS errors---> HP 8000 Elite Small Form Factor PC
  
  Can not install Win XP on another hard drive
  
  I work with a...
  HP Compaq 8000 Elite Small Form Factor PC
  
  Original SATA HDD is loaded with Windows 7 Pro.
  
  In order to install a program using this PC as a digital video recorder
  I installed the video capture PCI card and related software. I had problems
  associated with software and Windows 7.
  
  I know that the software works with Windows XP.
  Do not want to remove the original HDD, I tried my win7
  to replace the HARD drive and do a clean install of XP.
  
  I get the same error during the installation of the OS.  I tried different
  SATA and different XP install disks.
  
  The error I get is shown in this photo.

  

  Original HP HARD drive is a Hitachi 160 GB
  
  I tried 2 known to be good SATA drives.
  Seagate 500GB
  WD 80 GB
  
  I checked the bios settings and even revenue tio rear BIOS
  default settings.

  I get this error even with everything I tried to do.

  This happens during the OS install just after or during the process of the installation of temporary files are current

  written to the HD.
  
  When I re - install the original HD loaded with Win7, everything works as it
  expected.
  
  Any ideas on what] s going on here?

  Hello:

  The problem is that you must incorporate the necessary sata ahci drivers for windows XP to see the hard drive.

  Has Windows 7 and XP is too old an operating system to make them.

  Read the info at the link below, section of Intel and then read the downloadable PDF document for instructions on how to integrate all the drivers.

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-systems-and-software/SATA-drivers-for-XP-solution-on-0x0000007B-BSOD/m-p/114120#M17758

  The only other way to install XP on this model is to go into the bios, the storage section and change the setting of sata ahci to ide emulation, save the setting here and once again, when you go out.

  The problem is that if you do this, you cannot change the setting for the preferred setting of DCIS, unless you know how to install the correct ahci sata driver after installing XP from the controller.  If you try to just change the setting back on ahci without having to install the controller driver, the PC does not start upward.

  Try "slipstreaming" the drivers first and if you can't swing, install XP in IDE mode and I'll help you get the drivers installed, so you can change the BIOS to ahci setting.

• Driver hard disk error

  Hello!

  It is not a hard drive error, that I don't know hard disk is in perfect condition according to CHKDSK.

  It is just a minor nuisance under the settings of PC peripheral hard drive WDC WD300HLFS is, show with a rather alarming message pilot error below.
