ENVY of HP dv7 - 7298ca Notebook PC

How to add a second drive on my laptop? Already bought a new disc and I have replaced my old drive, but now I want to add this drive as a second drive.

Hello

It starts if you connect the sata cable 2 but without the 2nd HARD drive connected?

Kind regards

    I did 6 recovery disks for win 8 installed at the factory. I upgraded to 8.1, HDD started failing so I tried: external cloning, cloning of 2nd HARD drive in the Bay from 2nd and two of these operations failed. I formatted the HDD new and loaded my original win 8 and it says 100% installed then rebooted and said that he could not find \EFI\MICROSOFT\Boot\BCD.

  • ENVY of HP dv7-7250us Notebook PC: HP Envy dv7 Notebook PC contains a 5 GHz adapter?

    On March 23, 2015 I finally switched from DSL to Time Warner Cable and the technician who came with us to install it settle on 5 GHz and it worked very well.  However, our iPhones and iPad would not connect at 5 GHz, so in went into their chat room and of the technician TWC changed something on my laptop, then the two seems to work fine so far here.  Then the next day I couldn't connect the my other devices to 5 GHz and everything worked fine again.  Starting yesterday afternoon, only the 2.4 GHz shows on my PC screen and automatically connected to it, but the 5 GHZ does not at all appear.  I spent an hour on the phone with a TWC technician who check the router several times trying it to make it work on my PC but it still does not even show up.  Our other devices are always connected to the range of 5 GHz so the technician specific TWC that my HP laptop does not have a 5 GHz adapter.  That is my question.  Is my laptop has a 5 GHz network card?

    Thank you

    Hello

    No, your laptop does not support the 5 GHz, it has only:

Now there are a few different things that have been happing (because I've done a few times and I took it to a computer store to try because I was pulling my hair out) then one thing is takes like 1 hour to load everything and then stands up and says: IMPOSSIBLE! Another is it take too long to load all over go on udates and FAIL! It loads real slow, I did a check on said SSD that's fine. I got another thing same drive. So I was wondering I missed something maybe a driver I need to download? Maybe update my BIOS, I only did that because I can't find an update but haven't looked really hard. I went to the HP site and did all the updates it. My 240GB works great never had a problem it right to the top and boots fine. Maybe the firmware on the SSD, I saw something about this someplae. Any help would be great thanks

  • ENVY of HP dv7-7230us: HP DV7 disc includes six partitions - are they all necessary?

    I am trying to create a system image to save laptop my mother using Macrium after receiving a SMART disk error. It is to show that the hard drive has 6 partitions:

    1, WinRE (none)

    Primary NTFS

    235.3 MB

    400,0 MB

    2. NO NAME (none)

    Primary FAT32 (LBA)

    104.6 MB

    260,0 MB

    3. (none)

    Unformatted primary

    128.0 MB

    128.0 MB

    4 (C

    Primary NTFS

    541.21 GB

    670.92 GB

    5 (none)

    Primary NTFS

    274,6 MB

    350.0 MB

    6 RECOVERY (D

    Primary NTFS

    22.86 GB

    26.60 GB

    Are these really necessary? I understand that one or possibly many may have to do with Bitlocker, but the #3 partition in particular looks like it's just foreign. It's not like she's taking a lot of space, but it seems unnecessary.

    Thank you

    Hi there @infohack

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff.

    I can certainly understand your concern about this mix of partitions, and I am happy to help you with this.

    As a first step, this page: partitioning and naming of readers (Windows 8)

    There is also this post of @Daniel_Potyrala , even if reference is made to windows 7, it is loaded with useful information that applies to windows 8 as well. Its theme is more on the preparation of another drive with partitions, but this part of the update, there is information on the purpose of most of the partitions that you ask the subject.

    How to repartition the disk HARD of HP notebook with pre-installed Windows 7

    Since some of the partitions you listed are not labeled, it is difficult to tell what some of them are, but in a UEFI environment, it is possible one of those is a part of this environment. The recovery partition would have your plant to install the image. I would recommend you do a CD set of recovery as well via the recovery manager. You can make only one series.

    I hope this helps a little.
