• HP Pavilion 17: mouse pad does not work after replacing hard drive

  Hello

  After replacing hard drive and installing windows 8.1, I can't use my mouse pad.

  I installed the Synaptics driver but it didn't help.

  How can I check that mousepad device is not damaged when replacing the hard drive and which also can I try to fix the mouse pad?

  USB mouse works fine.

  See you soon

  The only way to be sure is to open it up and see if the touchpad cable was disconnected during the upgrade of the hard drive. That's my bet. Easy to forget when you're winding. You don't provide complete model number, but many of the recent models Pavilion 17 require removal of the cover together to get hard disk that requires disconnection of the touchpad cable.

• Windows 7 Windows update does not work after replacing hard drive

  Win7 Home Premium and HP Pavilion DV6-2150US.  Failed hard drive.  I bought a Seagate 500 GB replacement (original drive was 250 GB) and used my purchased HP re - install DVD to re - build Windows and reinstall the OEM software on the new hard drive.

  Everything starts fine, but he won't deal of Windows updates (. e. is a big red X on the screen of windows update).  I tried Microsoft "Mr Fix it" download - but it error and none of the other suggestions Microsoft not work either.  When I had the chance to talk with a MS tech support person, she suggested that somehow windows on the new drive is not authentic, etc...  Although windows on the new drive hard indicates that its active and authentic... is there some kind of checking a number of the hard disk 'really' activate windows?

  Just to make sure that my reinstall was not corrupt, I deleted the new hard drive and began in everywhere... I have the exact same result... it boots fine, but will not update through windows update.  The only other change to the laptop was that I had better buy double the memory to 8 of 4 when I bought 2 years ago... once again, do not know if there is a kind of material exchange limitation before disabling the windows software.

  Help, please!  I'm really stuck.  THX JimmyC

  Thanks for your post... I solved my problem by installing the update driver Intel rapid storage through this link:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02219204

  I suppose that as long as the hard drive is lower 250Gig you need not the new driver.  But when I replaced my hard drive failed with a disc 500gig hard - when I did restore HP to Win7 and the OEM software from the dvd, I bought - it put the storage driver original in Win7 - which works very well with a 250 GB drive, but causes the windows update doesn't work is not for readers more than 250gig.   When I installed the driver from the link above file, Windows Update started working - and you can imagine there are many, many fixes since my PC has been restored to original Win7 - doesn't not even Win 7 SP1.

  I hope it helps someone else... thank you for your message.  JimmyC

• Micro does not work after replacing hard on Windows 7

  I had to replace the hard drive in my Samsung QX410 Notebook, so I took it to a computer professional maintenance place inviting to reinstall Windows.  I expected that they would like to reinstall Windows Home Premium because it is what I had initially, but I got a very basic version.  In addition to this, I lost my microphone.  I don't know that much computer, so I went out and bought an external microphone, but it would not have worked either.  Please tell me what to do, this computer must have a built-in microphone, speakers and webcam still work after replacing hard drive, but I am at a loss for what to do about the IJC.  I am also concerned as to how to recover my Home Premium, but the most important now is the microphone because my job has me traveling so much, so I need a microphone to call my family.  Your help would be greatly appreciated.

  Upgrade Home Premium just add additional Windows features. It does not uninstall all programs.

• My C50 - B Satellite does not start from the HARD drive

  Details of the machine: -.

  Model number: PSCMLA-03F07Q
  Serial number: XE343127P

  Computer does not start from hard drive. No error message, just the start Toshiba at the end of self-test screen.

  Sometimes a reinstall of the operating system seems to correct the problem, but then he would go again, now the problem is consistent.

  I reduced the possibilities to a fault of BIOS, reasons.

  System boots from USB with no problems. Installation of operating systems is done without error. SMART hard drive data indicates a perfectly healthy hard drive. Memcheck will return no error.

  The obvious solution is to reload the BIOS, just reset it doesn't help. But that is the problem.

  1.4 BIOS update that the Australian site offers is a Windows program and the computer cannot start Windows.

  Obvious answer is to use a bootable USB key with an operating system 'live' on this issue, but all of these systems are Linux and the update of the BIOS is a Windows program. So much for smart solutions.

  Downloaded Bios version 1.7 of the European site but the iso inside the rar file is empty, 25 MB in size but nothing in there according to Linux. Tried to run his program on a Win7 64 bit computer and it returns an error that it could not find the correct iso file.

  I submitted a support request by email to Toshiba, but they believe that it could take three days to get a response, so I thought I would ask here as well. Can someone tell me please to a working copy of the latest BIOS update disk for a laptop Satelite C50 - B? Note: this model does not have a CD player so iso should be compatible with USB boot.

  See you soon,.

  Andrew.

  Hello

  From my experience that I n think that BIOS update is the final solution for you. When you set the default settings of the BIOS disk HARD appears correctly in the BIOS settings?
  HARD drive is also offered and listed as boot device when you enter in the start using F12 at startup menu?

  What happens when you start using recovery image installation created recovery USB key (I hope that you have created a)?

  Offer BIOS updates are versions of WIN and can be performed by running the Windows operating system.

• Windows Update does not work after the hard drive has been replaced

  Hello
  I have the same problem, replaced in my Toshiba HD, rebuild from Sysimage, Windows Update does not work. A ran "fix the problem with the Microsoft Windows Update is not working.
  Problem still exist.
  The message that I got while trying to update: "Windows Update cannot currently check updates,
  because the service is not running. "You may need to restart you computer.
  Stop and then restart the service, still no luck.

  I ran Windows troubleshooting. He finds two problems with Windows Update components, it corrects.
  The problem still exists.

  The other post:

  Another interesting fact:
  After the reconstruction the new disk, user account control does not recognize Windows programs.
  for example: execution of Perfmon.exe, the Publisher is unknown! However, when I download the program Windows FixIt, Publisher is recognized as Microsoft Windows. It seems that user account control does not recognize the Windows programs that had found the new HD, but acknowledges those who is downloaded from the internet.
  I guess there is a problem with the license, Windows was preinstalled on the Toshiba and replace the hard drive could have caused a few conflicts of licensing.

  The same problem. Cloned old HD on a larger hard drive. Everything worked perfectly except NO indexing and update WITHOUT windows - the two recurring problems that seem to appear on the forums after a change of hard disk.

  INDEXING resolved with change to "Intel rapid storage technology." Google what I put in quotes, choose the Download Center and get the specific to your OP and the controller software.

  UPDATES have been a little more frustrating. The microsoft .fixes and convenience stores were without help.

  Go to control panel / system and Maintenance / administration tools

  Select Services

  Stop the Background Intelligent Transfer Service

  Stop Windows Update

  In 'My Computer' go to Windows / Software Distribution

  Right-click "DataStore" folder. Rename it to Datastore.old

  Rename the folder 'Download' Download.old

  Return to Services and restart the Background Intelligent Transfer Service and Windows Update.

  Look for the updates. It will take some time because you deleted the database.

• 2720 XPS does not start after replacing mSATA SSD 32 GB

  Hello

  I replaced the mSATA SSD 32 GB on my 2720 XPS with a Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB SSD.

  When I go into the BIOS, I see the new drive mSATA.

  But when I try to start, I get the error "no boot device."

  I have not changed the settings in my BIOS after permutation of the SSD but I noticed that my first boot device is now internal hard drive instead of Windows boot device, or something in front.

  Any ideas? I tried not to put the 32 GB SSD back in again to see if it boots always.

  Thanks in advance.

  So, I called Microsoft and basically got told that, because I did a clean install on a separate disk that Windows was originally installed, they are unable to help me. I'll have to do a fresh install of Windows 8.1 on my SSD and then upgrade to Windows 10 from there.

  He mentions this particular fact nowhere on their website that provides the media tool!

  And the fact that the Dell rep, I spoke of na not know that particular nugget and asked me to do a clean install on the new disk did not help at all.

  Now I have to wait for Dell to send me a CD of Windows 8 so that I can install on my SSD and update from there.

  Beware if you are already on Windows 10 and planning to install it on a new drive!

• Satellite Pro S300-120 does not start after replacing the CMOS battery

  Hello

  My friends laptop - a S300-120 - was having a few problems.

  I replaced some parts about this before, including a screen crack with no problems.

  However, he began to refuse to start saying "out of battery CMOS, Press F1 to enter setup". Of course you would have to do this, set the date and time, except & restart only to get the same message. We have replaced the CMOS battery with a with the same serial number and now the laptop will not boot.

  It does one of two things.

  It is one) seems to turn, turn to the top disk & CD player, cooling fan is 100%, then flashes the POWER ON led once, twice by orange, and then green to 1/2 second intervals, with no response from the keyboard or LCD.

  Or (b) turns on, turntable, does not turn up to cooling fan, POWER ON witness remains stable, no response from the keyboard or LCD.

  I re-assembled the laptop several times & can not find all the missing fittings or obvious signs of damage.

  The only thing I can think is that the motherboard has been damaged - somehow find replacements is delicate.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  (> It is a) appears to turn on, turn the disk & CD player, cooling fan goes to 100% and then flashes him

  POWER ON led once, twice by orange, and then green to 1/2 second intervals, with no response from the keyboard or LCD.
  Usually, if the voltage in abnormal feeding malfunctions when IN DC will be blinking orange.

  In my opinion, it looks like a problem with the motherboard :(
  Eventually, you will need to replace the mobo ;(

• Does not start after replacing the cmos battery

  HP m8430f, Vista Home Premium.  Worked very well but sometimes had to restart using "pulsed" F10 (5 seconds) then wait 5 seconds, and then F5, then ENTER, F10, then ENTER.

  I suspected the CMOS battery, so I removed it.  He tested "fair."  Got a new CR2032.  He attached the test counter, so it's okay  "I WAITED ALL NIGHT BEFORE REPLACING.  But the computer does not restart.  I went through the steps above and still no luck.  What to do next?  Thank you, Joe

  FIXED!  I removed the battery (I had to remove the sound card to get in the first place to the battery).  I waved it around a little when you reinstall.  Now it's working.  What I've done, I have no idea, but it works now.  Sorry for the post, but I was desperate.  Joe

• eMac stops almost immediately when starting after replacing HARD drive

  Hey all!

  I need to explain a bit for this one, so please bear with me. Thank you.

  Long story short, I've had a few eMacs for quite a while now and I recently found a use for them. I created a (it is running 10.4 with 1 GB of RAM and a > G4 processor at 1 GHz, can't remember) and used it for a while before randomly power loss and refused to stay on for more than a few minutes. I tried to replace the PMU battery with one of the other Mac and pressing the reset button, which leads to stop showing signs of life whatsoever (even after the replacement of the original battery).

  Thinking I had it bricked, I got out one of the other Mac with a plan to give the disk of death. This new Mac running 10.5, perfect with another > G4 processor at 1 GHz (but only 768 MB of RAM this time). The only quirk I noticed is the TRC took abnormally long to warm up, black time with only red but gradually more luminous and no longer red colors of departure. It was about normal 5 minutes after that OSX end of initialization. In any case, I went to swap out hard drives and put everything to the top, to see that yet again, this new Mac does not work!

  If it has been awhile since the last attempt to start the CRT will do its usual "bong" noise before machine clicks (sorta like a relay of power off) and nothing else happens. If I try again, the CRT is silent (no doubt he is already warm from the last attempt to start?) and you can hear two clicks - one that looks like something to turn it on, then turn it off even on front. These clicks are different lengths apart - usually, this is only a few seconds, but sometimes longer. There was a few times where the fans have started between clicks and I've even heard the startup chime on an attempt (which got me excited - but no, it clicked and distributed repressed). The CRT does not seem to do anything other than bonging from time to time (but it can turn on - I can't say because of the problem of the warm-up that I mentioned earlier).

  I would really like to be able to resurrect this old Mac once again - I have the vague feeling that I broke it when replacing the HARD drive. I'm pretty sure that I have not forgotten all the internal cables, and I tried not to touch anything other than the HARD drive and the enclosure of the logic board (ended up having to remove the blower housing too, however). Two Macs are model A1002 and both have serial numbers in the YM412xxxxxx - YM520xxxxxx range (eligible for repair program?). I don't know if they were actually taken repair back in the day.

  In any case, I hope you guys can help out me! Thanks in advance!

  (P.S the first eMac is well beyond repair. I have also a third one - it is better to go by replacing the HARD drive again? It is worth noting that the PMU battery has been sitting on my desk for a while now. "It was probably flat anyway).

  The HARD drive would be the problem? It seems that it is.

  See if you can just unplug the data cable from HARD drive and try to hold down the alt or option to the startup/power.
