Drive hard failure - where to find recovery discs

I have a HP G60 - 235WM system that comes with having a hard drive failure.

Before the breakup, I tried to create a defined recovery disk but the process

cancelled itself in the middle of the creation of the file. Since then, I've run a system recovery that seemed to work until the second day when on startup, I got the drive imminent failure Prompt and selecting Blons is no not a thing... I bought a new drive, but need to access a set of recovery discs...

Then I bought another laptop with WIN 8.1 - questions

Can I create a set with the 8.1 recovery disk WIN that will allow me to recover the original software Vista system?

or where can I get a Vista system recovery disk?

Note: the failed hard drive can be accessed via the USB port but does not start...

Hello:

You can call HP and see if they have a set of Vista recovery disks for your model.

If this isn't the case, you can get them from this provider on the link below.

You will not be able to use a set of recovery disks you create on a different model PC.

  • Replace drive HARD w / expansion, made HP Recovery, but only a third of the new HARD drive got in the format

    Last week, I got a (installed at the factory of 1.5 TB) HARD disk failure on my HPE Pavilion. I bought a new 3 TB drive, installed, did a back HP recovery to factory settings (Win 7 using disks that I had made when the system was again 4.5 years ago) and returns to a good operating system. While everything seems OK, when I check computer it tells me there are 2 partitions on the new disk, C: being 734GB and being 11.5 GB D:.

    What should I do to format this drive to give me 2/3 of the space that I'm missing?

    The PC is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-180 t, product #BN515AV #ABA under Win 7 Pro 64. 1.5 TB SATA HDD that failed was the drive installed original HP, where the recovery DVDs were made in 2010.

    The new drive is a Seagate STBD3000100 3TO SATA HARD drive which records only to the 801 GB format recovery.

    Thanks for responding.

    ..... Further research revealed that indeed, I maybe don't have to install a drive greater than 2.2 to.

    Bad luck. Guess I'll just go buy a new 2 TB drive.

    ... Final note: went down to BestBuy (again) and bought and installed a WD 2 TB (model WDBH2D00020HNC-NSPS) drive. That formatted at full capacity with HP Restore, and am now reinstalling all bloody software that a computer builds up more than 4.5 years.

  • Satellite A660 - will not start initialize drive HARD failure

    Hello
    first of all thank you for your time.

    Model: Satellite A660 (PSAW3A-07U00R)

    The problem started yesterday, the computer has been going slowly as a closed application, so I held the off button until the pc is turned off. When I restarded the laptop, it went to a screen saying: start windows normally or repair Windows (recommended)

    When started normally it hangs just a blank screen, repair Windows recommends a system restore to a previous point that did not work. As it crashes again. I tried pressing F8 and boot in safe mode, but even once it just hangs. Then, after having repeatedly tried safe mode and another system restore the computer then hangs when I press F8. After that, the computer passes in front of the Toshiba logo with F2 and F12 options screen (which still works) and then it rises the initialization has failed then shuts off and comes with start-up bootfailed failed with a few numbers and letters, then it goes to a small box entitled menu starting with 4 options. These are some
    Toshiba MK6465GSX HDD/SSD
    CD/DVD MAST * UJ141ES ABD - CMB
    FLOPPY DRIVE
    LAN

    If I press ESC, it passes through the loop of bootfailed and ends at the same screen, if I press on enter "HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX" then he quickly returned to the screen and at the bottom it says [HDD/SSD Toshiba MK6465GSX] failed.

    I do not understand why it has gotten worse over time. Can anyone think why it occurred and more importantly, how can I get my pc working again? Note: held 0 then start does nothing for me atm

    Best regards, Matthew

    Hello Matthew,.

    To be honest, I agree with Akuma and it could be related to a dysfunction of HDD the error you described, but ensure 100% there s no software problem, you should try the Toshiba Recovery disk Windows installation. Something may be confused until the Windows installation and recovery of files on the HARD drive, so it cannot be started. Recovery disc will resolve this problem by formatting the HARD drive and restoring the settings box.

    If it still doesn t it work s hardware malfunction but an authorized service provider can solve these problems under warranty for free. So just contact the guy and ask for help. ;)

    If you have other questions or already solved the problem, please let us know!

  • Is this another drive hard failure? (2 times in slot a few months)

    Hello, I decided to post here before contacting HP about this problem again. As stated in the subject, it is the second time I had problems with my hard drive Compaq Presario CQ56. The first time a month or so earlier, he failed completely, I had to pay about $ 30 to $ 40 just to have the box sent us in a week to send the laptop in for repair. About 1 week later, I got the laptop back, and of course, I started to download lost my programs, antivirus, etc.. It worked perfectly until about an hour before, where even once, it cannot detect the hard drive. When I start the computer, he rarely shows the red screen with compaq Q, then it stays on a black screen for about 1 to 2 minutes, which then results in the Windows Boot Manager comes up saying the following:

    Hello

    From what you describe, it is certainly a hard failure so you definitely need to contact HP.  Personally, considering that it is the 2nd HARD disk in less than 2 months, I say it's a bad luck (however unlikely) or there is another issue at stake - it may be useful to suggest this to HP when you contact them.

    Kind regards

  • Network adapter driver does not work with the recovery discs provided by hp

    Thank you

    You are the very welcome.

    It does not sound like a heat problem.

    I don't know a lot about the repair of hardware issues beyond replacement memory and hard drives.

    I could try to clean the area of fan/radiator with a can of compressed air and see if that clears any dust that may accumulate.

    To do this, disconnect the laptop from the AC adapter and remove the battery.

    Insert a rod through the air fan to keep the blades turning when you spray air.

    Spray through the air intake fan and watch to see the dust out of the exhaust.

    Repeat once or twice and blow air from the other direction of the drain line to the fan.

    The other driver, you need is the driver of protection Protectsmart hard.

    See if it works.

  • HP Pavilion DV6-3041TX drive HARD failure and possible design Intel series 6 Chipset problem

    Hey guys

    I saw corruption serious hdd on my system for some time now and was just move to replace the drive hard when I came across the problem of design of Intel® chipsets. Now, I think that my system is the range of serial number for this question and as the current drive does not start, I can't check the Device Manager to see if the chipset is one of those affected.

    Is there anyway for me to check this from a USB bootable or something similar, because I don't want to have to go through the effort to replace the hard drive and reinstall windows just to find the chipset is wrong?

    Thank you

    (Now, this is my first post on the forum if I appoilgise if I've got this in the wrong place)

    Open the door of the memory on the bottom of the laptop and look under the memory for a number of motherboard.

    You should have the Intel HM55 chipset, but we can be sure that if we know the motherboard part number.

    You should have one of these two tips:

  • drive hard failure after 2 years of use, is this normal for a 1.6-inch toshiba 80 GB drive

    is the lifetime of a drive hard toshiba mini car shorts... and how to get data back now that the player is without a normal connection only a flat cable...

    In fact, that would be my next suggestion. If you're technical enough, you can use a Linux, or in your case, USB key bootable CD. I have had several instances where do this on a disk failed HARD still allows me to remove some data. Not everything, but it's worth a shot-to-shot, sure! And even if it doesn't work, you still have the USB key to use.

  • Where to find the disc of recovery for Qosimo F20-153

    Hey there.

    My product for my laptop recovery disk is scratched and when I went to reformat the laptop I got an error about 75%
    Now I thourght it was the HARD drive but after changing I thought it was the disk.

    Is there anywhere I can get a product recovery disk or the driver for this laptop because when I search the laptop I can not find the recent stuff as the laptop is almost 4 years old.

    Anyhelp would be happily received

    Jenbu

    Hmm I m not very good if you might be able to get this disc because the laptop computer s a little more old but if it is possible, then you should be able to order this disc of recovery of the ASP in your country. Just ask the guys for this disc, and perhaps they could command on the Toshiba.

    With regard to the drivers;
    The Qosmio F20-153 belongs to the series of PQF22E and all the drivers can be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba.

    Take a look at this site:

  • Where to find recovery for Satellite A75-S112 discs

    Hello

    I lost my restore disk in my laptop Toshiba A75-S112, with serial number 45236406K.
    I'm having the hardest time to get a new copy. I contacted the service centers in my area, but they were no help, as they claim that they are not and can not have or sell the recovery disks.

    Yet, they can recover my machine for me. I can recover my machine on mine, I just need the disc. I contacted Toshiba support by phone and received a file number to help me in my quest to get the recovery disk, but I was told no what to do or where to go with the file number. The file number is 1-788-803-502.

    I'd appreciate any help on my current situation.

    It's very strange because each maintainer authorized Toshiba should be able to order the recovery CD.
    Satellite A75-S112 is designed for the American market.
    This is perhaps a reason why the ASP cannot get this recovery for you CD.

    Here is a link to all the Toshiba of ASP.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT

    I put t know if it is possible, but maybe you have to contact an ASP in the United States for compatible recovery CD!

    However, if you have an original Microsoft Windows CD so that you could install the OS from this CD and then you can download and install the drivers of Toshiba of Toshiba page we.

  • Drive hard failure ID: 936JJ3-54W75L-XD003G-60VX03

    My system: HP Pavilion dv6-3040us; Product ID: WQ676UA #ABA; System ID: 143F; BIOS: F.29 25/02/2013

    Hard Drive failure ID: 936JJ3-54W75L-XD003G-60VX03 during the short test HDD.

    I was not able to find an explanation for the fault code referenced hard drive I get who runs the HARD drive test.  This code is blown on several occasions during the short test HDD and it does not in the long run test but stops with this error.  So, I guess that the drive should be replaced because a CHKDSK command-line with the set of "fix" has not solved the problem.

    My question is if I can replace the HHD with a 500 GB SSD on this motherboard?  If Yes, what steps do I take to replace the disk and recover my system and information?  I looked through the pages of BIOS and does not see a place to set the HARD drive configuration, so I wonder if the system will accept a SSD drive.  Thank you for your help.

    Yes it's a wide 7 or 9.5 mm thickness of 2.5 inches SSD is a plug-in replacement for the standard hard drive. The motherboard only supports SATA-II speed drives but SSD SATA-III will be backward compatible. The settings of the BIOS already fully support an SSD and Windows 7 and 8 run automatically TRIM to optimize the transfer of data to the SSD. It is really very simple, but you still see a lot of advice floating around days earlier, when he was more difficult. Don't overthink is my best advice. I suggest an Evo to Samsung 840:

    YouTube video for the replacement of the hard disk:

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=QQx7PlIXFuE

    Not quite precisely your model but close enough to be useful.

    You did the recovery HP DVD when the laptop was new? With a failure on the short trial, it is not likely that the drive can be cloned to the SSD DH, but with a usb to SATA Adapter, you can recover some data.

    We can connect you to a .iso (disk image) of Windows 7 to your laptop and you can use the drivers from this site. If you can get the C:\swsetup file on the old disk, it has all the drivers and original programs.
