Envy 17 3D: error HARD drive or motherboard

Hello. I accidentally spilled Pepsi on my laptop last week. I am immediately turned me off, cleaned up the best I could and let it dry... for 30 minutes. From powering it it worked well for 10 seconds, then it started restarting until it just died. After a week or so, I tried on again and he actually started, but it won't start windows. A ran the Diagnostics and everything except hard drive DST short (soft error) and hard drive Long DST (soft error). Hard drive optimized DST passed fine.

I have two drives, SSD with windows on and the standard 1 TB HARD drive. So I'm ready to communicate with the HP repair service in my town tomorrow, but they are really, really expensive, and I wonder if there is anything I could do myself. My readers could be damaged and then I can just replace myself, or damage the motherboard, seeing how it was (and probably still has) some Pepsi on it?

Pepsi is corrosive and has loads of conductive sugar.

I would consider replacing the keyboard.

There was probably some liquid to spill Pepsi which is is casting the laptop if it signals a failure on the hard drive that wasn't there before the spill.

The next time something like that happens to not turn on the unit for about a week and put it somewhere it is very hot and dry.

Never turn on a device after thirty minutes of Pepsi, tea, or coffee spill. That could push easily in the end of its useful life.

  • Envy TouchSmart 17-j057cl: hard drive error

    Received a message at startup which said "smart hard drive control has detected an iminent... failure. "What could be wrong and how to fix it.  The machine is only 8 months old.

    Hello

    The Smart error would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

    Shut down the laptop.

    Tap away at the esc you key start Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Select the Menu of diagnosis ( f2 ) and run the tests on the hard - this should produce an error code of 24 characters.

    As your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP (24 character code) and make arrangements for the disk replaced - if necessary, you can check the status of your warranty here.

  • Not found boot device error hard drive 3FO

    Hello

    I have a HP Envy 15 laptop 3040nr. Yesterday, it fell on my couch and on the floor from a height of about 2 feet.

    Since then, I received the above error, and the computer does not recognize my hard drive, saying in the test drive "HDD is no." I know that the hard drive itself is not at all damaged, because I removed the laptop and put it up to a USB adapter, and I was able to access the drive. It is completely functional.

    Now, the question is:-how to get the notebook to accept my hard drive again? I am also convinced that the laptop is not seriously damaged internally, apart from a few bumps on the laptop.

    NOTE:-1. My computer is void of warranty.

    2. the laptop fell FLAT on its underside and not on the edges.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Paul,

    I have simply removed and re-inserted the controller on the motherboard, and I am posting this on my laptop now functional!

    Thanks for mentioning 'controller', it was in fact lose! I just skipped it right out and back in again, and now it works fine!

    And on missing startup files, it was nothing. The other PC was just now allowed access to the system reserved Partition!

  • MacBook Pro slow and stop, memory or HARD drive or motherboard?

    These last few months my Macbook Pro medio 2012 begins to slow down. I was thinking of a resettlement but has not had the time yet.

    Last month, he really slow started to freeze and stops instantly. It reboots and then I get a gray screen saying with the icon (a card with a questionmark in there) that it cannot find the boot disk drive. I close it again with the button and restart, then it starts normally. This would have me believe it has something to do with my HARD drive or the motherboard, but then again I'm not a tech guy so I guess just really. Then I got the idea to do a test of material, with this error as a result: 4MEM/62/40000000: 0x81d97590

    After searching the Web, it would mean that my memory would be bad/broken. I read in another post to download an app called 'Remember' which tests your RAM. I tried yesterday and it worked fine, nothing was wrong. But today I did once again when my Macbook was slow functioning again and went to do some other stuff. When I came back my Macbook has a black screen, a Word to insert a boot disk. I just stopped and restarted again and started normally. It is a little slow to clear grey screen with the apple logo.

    So my question is, does anyone know where the shoe pinches, RAM, HARD drive or the motherboard? Will also contribute to a reinstall? Can I check if my RAM is always placed properly or is maybe dirty? I use an application called memory monitor for clean working memory from time to time. I'm updating to El captain, wanted to do it instantly when I want to do a clean install on my mac, but I think I'll wait with that I know where the problem lies.

    Really hope someone can help me!

    Kind regards

    an application called 'Remember' which tests your RAM. I tried yesterday and it worked fine, nothing was wrong.

    This is not the right way to think about memory problems. When the test of the RAM ALL said that there is a problem, it's the truth. RAM problems are very difficult to isolate, and a diagnostic runs, but can't find the problem, if NOT "nothing was wrong" which is "he cannot find the problem immediately."

    This isn't a mystery. DIMM RAM, not another thing is more likely to fail. Then you could try Rember running all night, you could try to remove one of your DIMMs and see if chess stops, you can try to get a new DIMM and see if they work better.

  • Error hard drive DST

    I have a laptop dv7 in HP Envy, 6 months out of Costco. It crashes at startup. I did the test of marketing and it's not hard drive DST: M0D8Q1-6B96S2-QFPK0K-60SF03

    Is this fixable or does require the replacement of the hard drive? The documentation provided with your computer indicate a 2-year warranty; It would be something covered by the warranty?

    Thank you

    Steve

    Hi Steve,.

    Error code 24 characters for the drive Self Test (DST) would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

    The hard drive is under warranty, you can contact HP and arrange for the replaced disk - if necessary, 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.

  • HP ENVY 15-j030eb - SSD HARD drive replacement

    Hello

    Really hard to find all the information on the net regarding this laptop (no reviews, no tweaks etc.). Again I would buy the desire because of his good record. However only if the following can be done:

    Replace the HARD drive internal 1 TB per a DDI, preferably a Samsung 840 EVO Series 250 Gb.

    If so, can you just plug in, or do you need to support etc. Anyone who has done this before?

    Thank you

    Belgium

    Hello SebastiaanB,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I understand that you are looking to put a 256 GB SSD in the HP ENVY 15-j030eb. I'd be happy to help you with this. I'm you provide a link to the HP Support document: PC portable HP ENVY 15 and HP ENVY TouchSmart 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide. If you look on page 5 you will see that the HP ENVY 15 laptop only supports an SSD 24 GB mSATA, your wanting to install the 256 GB it would not work. What you would end up with, it's either the BIOS would not see the drive at all or it would be very slow and you would lose any benefits that you would get to use an SSD.

    To answer your second question in the guide even if you go to page 44, you will see instructions on how to install an SSD in your laptop.

    I hope that I have answered your questions to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting about these issues on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Re: Satellite M30: error HARD drive-&gt; 40 GB HDD modified with a 250 GB = 137 GB HARD drive?

    Hi all
    I have a problem with my laptop M30-241 and the new hard drive.

    After an error with my old 40 GB HARD drive, I changed HDD WD 2500BEVE 250 GB.

    The correct name of the HARD drive in the bios Setup.
    My bios version is 1.7 but only 137 GB of available space.

    I searched for a new version of the bios, but without success.

    Maybe someone can give me an opinion/advice?

    Best regards
    D.a.

    Perhaps the BIOS doesn't support the 250 GB HDD it is possible given that not all HARD drive sizes are supported!
    I think that the update of the BIOS (if possible) would not solve this too.

  • Error hard drive 305

    Hello everyone and thank you for reading this.

    If I own a HP Pavilion DV6(EDIT: I believe it's a dv6 6145dx) and it is NOT booting. EDIT: Windows 7 Home 64-bit Edition (I believe).

    What I mean is that either not happening the windows loading screen after clicking "start windows normally".

    So I tried to understand what the error was and I went into the bios and test a hard drive. When I did everything first he finished the short test and says hard disk is full error 305.

    I left it like that for a while (maybe 3 weeks) until I finally had time to fixation.

    To fix it, I have Linux on a disk (Ubuntu to be exact) and start my computer through the OS on the drive. Then, I deleted and deleted files (music, old games) that I didn't need more in the hope that it would fix the error.

    Then I tried to start it again, and it had the same problem before, could not get past the Windows loading screen.

    Then I went into the bios and the hard drive I scan again. This time, he spent the short test but has NOT passed the long test. I got the error message was 305 hard drive error.

    Ive done a bit of research (how I found this site actually) and I can't find a solution. Is my hard drive bread? Y at - it an easy fix? Should I reinstall Windows?

    Thanks for reading and I would appreciate any help.

    Good day.

    Hello

    You are welcome

    The fact that you can access data on the HARD drive via Ubuntu is about what I expected the Player isn't having to run Windows, then you have reduced considerably the read/write load it is a sub - especially if the failure is mechanical, gives you a much better chance to snatch just your data.

    If you know the manufacturer of your HARD drive, please visit their website you should find a download to create a disc/usb diagnosis of new test drive.

    Regarding the replacement of the HARD disk, you are not restricted to a particular manufacturer, for example, the drive on the following link would be nice - (an important aspect to note is not to replace the disc with one of a capacity smaller than the original, because it often leads to problems when using recovery discs to reinstall the operating system).

    750 GB 2.5 "Sata II hard drive.

    The replacement procedure can be found starting on Page 70 of your & Maintenance Guide.

  • 1206tx envy 6: Windows install hard drive problem

    I currently install windows 8.1 and in my cell there are two ssd 30 GB drive hard one and only one 500 sata.
    I can't install on sata as it says it's style gpt and I tried to delete and now it is not allocated and is not awarded. On the ssd, it was in error, and I read a forum saying that removing the drive sata hard and get on ssd. I did and I did but after connecting the hard drive it is said that there are no windows installed.

    Hi there @Abdull,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome! It is an excellent site to find answers and ask questions. I watched the Style GPT error and the error No Windows installed.

    The laptop you have comes with SATA 500, but you also have a 30 GB SSD. Does do that? The SSD is external, or put in the machine yourself?

    I would say performing a HP System Recovery to reinstall the operating system, assuming that the partition is still intact. If this is not present, you did a set of recovery media?

    Please follow these troubleshooting steps, re-post and let me know how everything went.

    Thank you!

    Have a great day!

  • 03F1 error hard drive at startup

    Hello guys

    Yesterday my friends and I were watching a movie on my laptop via a projector and all of a sudden it freezes, I've tried a few things (Im not completely reduced tech = P) but could not release it so I had to scramble the power button to turn it off and now everytime I restart it it gives me a screen front harddrive error screen (where the little colored balls dance and make the logo of the) window) to boot windows 7. He tells me the error is the number "03F1" and asks me to run the diagnostic, but every time I run it is stuck at 0% (I waited about 35 minutes, did not move a single percentage). After a few times, I just ignored the message and left without running diagnostic tests and my computer booted up fine... it doesn't seem to be a mistake.

    HP disk hard diagnosis is therefore out of the question, I went to run a few others offered by windows, the online version of the hard drive diagnosis and the results were very good... nothing seems to be tested in my hard drive and my computer is running without problems. However whenever I start I have to deal with this stupid screen and hitting a few keys for my pc at startup (I tried the diagnostic hard drive in the BIOs, it gets stuck at 00 as well for some reason any).

    Any ideas? I came across this post on the internet which is almost exactly the same as mine, I really want to get rid of this stupid screen if I do not have a hard drive failure... I mean that my laptop is like only 1 year.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Ignore my last post

    The hard drive on the link below would be a good replacement.

    1 Tb hard - computer laptop

    The process of replacing the hard drive is detailed from Page 48 of your & Maintenance Guide.

    Once this is done, simply use your recovery DVD to reinstall the operating system on the new drive.

    If you do not have your recovery discs, try the link below to see if you can order a replacement.
