• Windows 7 installation on the new hard drive failure

  Install Windows 7 on a new hard drive. The new HDD is 750 GB Sata 3 GB 7 200 RPM.

  Windows 7 will not finish installing.

  Commissioning of repair using windows in the drive disk cannot complete until the end of Windows 7 install.

  I had installed Advanced. Creates a new 30 GB partition. Windows will create a 100 MB partition. I installed Windows 7 on the 30 GB partition. It will go the whole process until the completion step. It restarts, the blue screen appears. Where, it is said,

  (Attempt to Reset display driver and recover from Timeout failed.)

  If market, it will start to the top and do the samething.

  Before that my old hard drive went bad, I did a Windows 7 upgrade and updated all the drivers. Everything worked very well.

  Now, this is a full installation of Windows on the hard disk again.

  Here is the computer info I had saved.

• Hard drive failure is imminent!

  so I had a play and when I started the game, I was told that my computer will restart, then it started me off in the bios with the message "hard drive failure is imminent. IM wondering if I get another HARD drive I will need to get another copy of windows 10 buy or is there a way I can keep the windows 10 during a maneuver on my HARD drive?

  You can simply install the new disk, then start on a key USB W10 and install the operating system without a key, then when you get on the desktop, it should activate.

  Or clone the old disk to a usning new Macrium reflect free, then install the new disk, but if the reader fails it cannot establish so well.

  You can make the USB stick using this tool from Microsoft, you will need a 8 GB or more great drive flash usb, or you can make an ISO file and then burn it to DVD.

• Hard drive failure is imminent and must be replaced

  Windows 7 Home Edition Premium--> Windows 8

  Hi there, since a terrible week for me I started to receive the error message:

  Hard drive failure is imminent and must be replaced

  only when am re - / from my PC.

  I made a backup already a few days ago (space available was already 85% - did not much), run all those disk cleanup, defragmentation, analyze and verify programs and there was nothing wrong. I ran all possible controls and it had nothing recorded. I've updated / installed Windows 8 which works perfectly without any problems, no computer crash or that it is, but only sometimes receive a message saying that I need to run/shedule a back, etc.

  As I already mentioned, there was no disk error, no other problems known but still get the message "hard drive failure is imminent and should be replaced" and crazy!

  My questions are:

  (1) what on Earth is happening, there is always a problem with touch smart PC; should he stay away all in a desktop PC and just buy older versions - separate screen and tour, etc.?

  (2) I have no problem and continue to use my PC but wonder what will happen; It will be down, it's just a false error message, what should I do?

  (3) if I have to take it to a service, what should I take care of?

  Thank you for taking your time and wil appreciate for your posts about.

  Hello

  What has happened is that the CHIP system reports told you that your hard drive will fail little time. It is good that you have saved.  The fault lies not in all of your PC, but in a single component, namely the hard disk. You own your PC like one year standard warranty is longer.

  You need to buy a hard drive with the following specifications. It of time to find your recovery disc as you need to recover your PC in its delivered State and then apply the upgrade 8 to win again. You can install it yourself or have done by a qualified PC store or from an HP Service Technician. The HP service center is the most expensive option.

  You can avoid having to use the recovery disk and upgrade by a clone of your hard drive on a 1.5 TB external drive. You will be able to migrate the clone on the new diskette with a product commercially available as Paragon Hard Disk Manager 12.

• Of failure, white screen MacBook Pro HARD drive try to boot from the external HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a 2008 Macbook Pro which is having some problems, I was able to fix them, but eventually the hard drive failed. I know that because at startup until it would have a white screen Uni (no logo) and you can hear a clicking on in the lower left corner. I thought initially it was a memory problem, but after opening and verification of memory, it's clearly the hard drive.

  I solved this problem temporarily (until I can replace the HARD disk) by installing El captain on an external HARD disc and start from that. Here's the twist, I couldn't he can begin to El captain, I tried CMD + R, CMD + OPT + R, CMD + OPT + R + P and now shift. Everything that's happened would be that clicks would cease to release the keys.

  I left the macbook on while I'm at work, when I got home it was on the screen to connect the external HARD drive.

  I accidentally closed the macbook yesterday and again once when I tried to log on, I could not and I left it on a white screen while I was sleeping. There is a possibility that he may have launched from the HARD drive when I get home, but if not, is there something that escapes me to force do this?

  See you soon

  Usually start up to a blank screen without the Apple Logo, may report one of the following:

  • Hardware failure
  • Boot drive is not recognized as valid and updated updated
  • OS X essential software is missing, hurt moved or renamed or corrupt
  • A firmware update is necessary

  No matter who, in order to boot from an external drive "bootable", you would normally hold down the Option key until you get a screen that offers a number of devices to try to boot from.

  Alternatively, you can try holding down the C key to try to boot from the external drive.

  If none of these startup options work, then the bootable disc or the USB port on your MacBook Pro can be the question.

  Since you have a Mac pre-2013, if you hold down the D key while booting, the built-in Apple Hardware Test should start up.  This can help to identify hardware problems.

  Hi Carolinelightfoot,

  This error message occurs when the system could not read and write data to the registry file. The error indicates a problem with the registry.

  Method 1:

  You can run a Checkdisk to see if there are drive errors that can cause this problem.

  Check your hard drive for errors

  Note: When you run the disk check, there is a chance of losing the data that you can take a backup of important data before you run checkdisk.

  Method 2:

  You can also try to boot from a full version of Windows Vista installation disc and try to perform a restore of the system to WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment)

  What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

  Hope this information is useful.

• Check the main hard drive freezes on Quick Check

  I have a Hp G500 series portable Ubuntu 12.04 running. This morning the case slipped and fell. I check and noticed that the housing has been pressed on the same side as the little light that tells you its reading of the HARD drive, and me being paranoid with my computer, I immediately checked on this subject. The operating system starts fine and the memory test in the checked bios but when I went to check the main hard drive in the bios, it conducted an audit of the fast and then frozen at 2%. I hit ESC, but everything is frozen. < br > < br > I myself have already resigned to the fact that I may need to replace the HARD drive again, but if it can be avoided, I prefer not to spend the money.

  Hello

  Yes, that means you need to replace the hard drive.

• Local tech installed Windows Vista Home Premium after a hard drive failure. However, my key is Windows Basic. Is the copy, he put on my system illegal?

  Genuine Windows clean install

  Hello

  I had a problem with my laptop Acer Extensa 5230th. It was not started and so I took for Matech computers.  They diagnosed as having a mechanical drive problem.  So they replaced the drive and installed a more recent version of windows vista on.  Note: I haven't bought a new copy of vista family premium, he said he was going to reinstall vista.  It had windows Vista Home Basic, it has installed vista Home premium and said that he had validated by call from windows, but I'm suspicious because I don't think you can use a base of windows key to validate Home premium!  It means that he has put on an illegal version on windows or used the genuine key that came with the laptop.

  In addition, on computers of brands, if this happens again, how is a technician for legally to reinstall the original windows that it came with the new hard drive? How to install windows vista basic on the new hard drive by using the original key to make it genuine? What windows installation disc would you require? or is it easier to just buy a new copy of windows?  I heard that many technicians, prefer to install illegal versions of cracking of windows instead of the customer to buy the new installation of windows.

  Kind regards

• keep the second hard drive as duplicate in case of failure of the first disc

  I installed the second hard drive of the same size mfg and would not lead copy. Now I want to keep up-to-date with the first hard drive so that if the first drive fails, can I use the second drive until I get replacement for the failed drive. Never forget backups all have problems when you need them.

  You can not do it legally.

  Vista installation rules:

  A single license is a single Installation.

  This applies even on the same computer.

  See you soon.

• Dell Inspiron 3520 - hard drive failure - how to install Windows 8 on the new hard drive

  I bought Dell Inspiron 3520. My hard drive has stopped working completely. It was stated as dead hard drive by diagonstic center.

  I have now bought a new hard drive but have lost data and windows 8 preload on the original hard drive. Dell did not provide any recovery disk for Windows 8 pre-loaded on portable hard drive. How can I then install windows 8 / 10 on my new hard drive?

  The .iso image file official 10565 has only:

  • Overview of the House of insiders
  • Overview of the Insider Pro

  Unfortunately, there are 5 editions of Windows 10 and so 3 are missing. If your key is not automatically entered and accepted, it's probably a simple language edition or edition N.

  When Microsoft release 10586 - TH2 - 1511 Version they will probably have an .iso that contains all 5 editions in 1 .iso or alternatively 5 .isos distinct (I hope as the first case that it will make Windows installation much easier).
