• the new hard disk OS installation - help! 1

  has confirmed that my old hard drive on my laptod hp is broken.

  new hard drive came - still in packaging.

  What should I do next, after the installation of the hard disk that is the easy bit - thankfully I did of the disks when I first bought the old laptop and the windows license number is still visible under the cover of laptop.

  I read something about BIOS, but it sounds scary.

  go for a drink and the Dutch courage and hope a few simple tips please!

  concerning

  If you have the recovery disks, they should include your operating system (Vista) and all the drivers and programs provided with your computer. He must restore it to the way it was when you bought it originally.
  
  You need to update right after installation (of course).
  
  Good luck!

• Replacement for HP G62 hard disk recovery

  Hello

  I've seen other similar users have reported this problem but am not finding an answer that would solve my problem.  Having a laptop of HP G62-355DX under Windows 7 Home Premium, the hard drive turned be default via diagnostic codes and by calling the HP technical support to confirm.  The mfr/size of the existing hard drive is a Samsung 320.   Bought a new Seagate 1 TB of Best Buy.   I have 4 HP recovery disks.  Through the specified process for the recovery of the system, but once reached the end of it when the display shows "Preparation of recovery is complete:

  

  .. When the portable computer is restarted, it appears with the message no boot device is (and the hard drive for laptop boot option is enabled in the BIOS).

  Am stuck at this point;  supposedly, more large drives are supposed to work but is at - it a known issue?  I've seen references to one for different situations in these forums (for a desktop PC, for example).

  Or do I have to repartition the hard drive into two partitions, a 320GB and everything else - use someone elses of the Microsoft Windows 7 OEM CD?

  I do not have the Microsoft Home Premimum disc of course, only the HP recovery discs.

  The new hard drive sometimes requires to prepare first with utility cd from Cyberlink. Download and save the file. Once the download is complete, place a blank cd in your drive and click on the downloaded file to create a boot cd. Start with this cd and wait until you get a green check mark indicates the hard disk is ready. Remove the cd, insert the first disc of recovery and restart the laptop.

• Need new hard disk for Equium A100

  Hello

  I want to replace the 80 GB HDD of my A100 for something big.
  I'm guessing it's a SATA, I'll need?

  Nobody knows what is the greatest, my laptop can handle without any performance?
  Just to confirm that it is a satellite A100-027

  Also, I literally get out the old one, stick in the new and then load Windows XP on it? Is it really as simple as that :/?

  Hello

  Yes, the A100 Equium supports the SATA HDD controller and so you will need a SATA 2.5 HARD disk!

  > Also, I literally get out the old one, stick in the new and then load Windows XP on it? Is it really as simple as that :/?
  Yes, the upgrade of the HARD drive is not difficult.
  In most cases, you will need to remove the HDD from the laptop's HARD drive Bay, then switch the HARD drive bracket to the new HARD drive, then insert the new HARD disc again in Notepad.

  That s it.

• Dv6 hard disk 3F0 problem

  I have a HP DV6-6001TX with the 6770 m GC. I tried to boot my laptop for a while now, but every time he says hard disk not detected and undetected boot device. I tried to secure the connection from the HARD disk several times without success. What should I do now?

  Hello

  It is perhaps that your hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced.

  As a new trial and to help eliminate a problem with the Sata controller, try the following.

  Follow the procedure below to create a bootable Ubuntu CD and follow the steps in part 3 of 'Try' to see if the operating system is running.  The option 'Try' runs the operating system from the CD without having to install on your HARD drive.  If it works Ok (it will be slow running on a CD), this would tend to confirm that the problem is only with the HARD drive.

  http://www.Ubuntu.com/desktop/get-Ubuntu/download

  If your laptop is still under warranty, you can contact HP and arrange for the replaced HARD disk - you can check your warranty status.

  If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

  If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, let me know.

  Kind regards

• 2000 - 2B10NR: hard disk at startup error...

  They gave me this computer from a friend to keep and fix (out of warranty) and I turned on, I get the message

  Hard drive error
  Run the hard drive Test in the diagnostic system.
  Hard disk # (XXX)

  I searched your forums and thought it is better to buy recovery disks. Yes, I did.

  They came and I installed everything and became happy and then at the end (2 hours), the Recovery Manager said he failed and gave a system error log. I recorded it on my usb key. Then tried again. No luck...

  I did a test lying on the hard drive and the first time he says failure of long DST: 6BS883 - 6 B 7806-MFGK1F-61? ED03

  So I need to know if it's a simple hard drive failure.

  Everything came out OK in tests.

  I found that a replacement HARD drive on ebay for $ 30 and it's an easy replacement procedure.

  I just need a confirmation of this is the failure of HARD drive before you buy

  What HARD drive I see for my model:

  320GB SATA drive hard - 5 400 rpm, 2.5-inch small form factor (SFF)

  Is this correct? There is no model custum. Bought at the store with equipment and factory settings.

  Thank you

  Yes, DST Fail means that the hard drive is bad. The 320GB hard drive matches what you have now.

• failure of hard disk drive necessary to reinstall WinXP Home on replacement HARD drive

  I have an of Western Digital HARD drive with my system of operating XP Home 32-bit installed on my primary C: drive.

  I have run the Diagnostics tool online to WD for the reader who found intractable errors on the disc, which indicates an imminent drive failure and an email their technical support confirms the disk needs to be replaced SOON before she completely fails.

  I copied all personal off the drive failed on another drive good files and am now ready to remove the failed drive and install a new replacement main primary HDD and then reinstall my XP Home on it - so - until I started to do this thinking, I would ask for tips in anticipation of a smooth, re - install on the new drive.

  I got a 25 character key and proof of 8-character license key. There is a Microsoft sticker on the back of the pc (that I do not see to read right now, but its there).

  So, I remove the old drive and fit the replacement drive and this format and then install my XP Home - can we see a particular problem with activation?

  concerning

  Depending on whether you have a recovery CD suitable for activation key for your sticker or not, there are three possible courses of action. Each activation of the path should not be a problem unless this procedure has been done several times or your 25-character key fell into the wrong hands.

  If you have a recovery CD

  Make the re-installation, follow the control points in my first post in this thread...

  If your recovery media is a service pack before SP3, there is more information on how to get to SP3 in my first post in this thread...

  If you do not have a recovery CD

  I hope that your original drive will have a recovery partition or the means to create a recovery CD. If you can create recovery media do now. In the contrary case and the original disc has a recovery partition make a clone of the original hard disk sector by sector to your new car now. If the clone is successful, i.e., that there are no unreadable sectors, is perhaps the best way to proceed in any case, especially if your PC is in good health other than the imminent failure of your HARD drive. If the clone does not work out, you can always fall back on the new installation. The advantage of a clone is that there is no re-setup software to (updates Windows or Office to give just two examples) and didn't need to be restored. I paid for the partitioning/cloning software and have no experience of all freebies out there to make recommendations, perhaps 10crackers can help with this.

  If you have managed to create a recovery media, you can use it instead of cloning.

  If you clone successfully you can just use it as is, or use the built-in recovery partition that you just cloned to do a clean install.

  If you don't have a recovery media and cannot create an and is unable to successfully clone

  You will have to contact the manufacturer of your PC to see if they can provide recovery media.

• access all information on the hard disk for all users.

  I tried to set up a link today from my new laptop computer Windows 7 my most top of desktop running vista.  The liaison program stated that the administrator on my old computer was only a temporary user.  I tried to set up the account as a permanent user without realizing that it would replace the current account.  I have now no access to programs from hard drive of the main user I was using.  I was wondering if there is anything I can do to access the hard disk with this user and import files?  I forgot almost all programs appear on the computer but open to anything.

  Hi kismet.

  1. What do you mean by link program?

  2. What have you tried to do?

  3. how many accounts do you currently on the computer and what are they?

  4. what happens when you try to access the files on the hard drive?

  It seems that you do not have permissions to access the files on the hard drive.

  I suggest that take you the files and folder try to access.

  To take ownership of a folder

  (a) right click on the folder you want to take control and then click Properties.

  (b) click on the Security tab, click Advanced, and then click the owner tab.

  (c) click on Edit. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  (d) click on the name of the person you want to give to the property.

  (e) If you want that person to be the owner of the files and subfolders in this folder, select the check box Replace owner subcontainers and objects .

  (f) click OK.

• HP Pavilion x 360 11-n010dx (HARD DISK AND RAM)

  Hi, I have the HP Pavilion x 360 11- n010dx and make it sound strange when in set at 90 degrees. as a click clikc click all the time, since the day I understand 5 months ago. to be honest never was a fast computer, as my old vaio run faster than that. I thougth it was for windows 8 and 4 GB of ram. but someone told me that might be you HDD. so, first of all is any chance to fix this disc using HDD regenerator or something similar (I do not), or do a complete restore of the system? (I don't have the box and Bill from best buy so I can't look for support or use the warranty and im from argetntina and I get this pc in the United States). In the case where I need is also a chance to change the disk to an SSHD? or a SSD? in this case, what should I buy? Last, but not least, is a chance to upgrade memory? I know that it is sold to the motherboard. (any remote chance?) If I have to UN sold is not a problem, because I can't use the warranty so... (no invoice, no box).  I have well appreciate a lot your help

  Hi again once I run the complete test of the system hardware, it does not any error on the hard disk. but the clicking sound again. and the still slow computer.

  Whence the noise? It's cooling fans, near vents or on the side of the hard drive? Look at the manual to their approximate positions & identify the area where the sound comes from.

  Are there any overheating, sudden stops, unusually warm air through vents or error messages?

  If there is no hard drive failure, it is unlikely that the cause is due to bad sectors of hard disk or all just bad HARD drive. To confirm the download, run this program free HD Tune - it'll take a few hours to complete.

  You partition the hard disk after you bought the laptop?

  I want to change the HD to an SSHD, because SSDS are much better, but they are very expensive and shorter life. for example, sshd maximun size would be bee 500 GB? I would like to put something bigger, is - it possible?

  SSHD - the listed compatible max is in this config: 2.5 "SATA 7mm (HDD to 500 GB + 8 GB SSD) hybrid (reference HP: 732000-005), there is no other compatible guaranteed.

  I suggest that go you for SSD - there is no problem, I've heard up to now with them. Certainly, they would work at least 10 years (and more than that) with the same performance & in my case (I have 500 GB Samsung SSD Evo 840) time to access and overall performance improves day after day.  If you want more storage, better, you buy an external HARD drive. If you want spectacular performance SSD is my choice, even though I'm not saying that SSHD is bad - but there still turns physical disk which is the main part.

  On the RAM I've already updated the bios, so I think that I'm ready to go for it.

  I check my virus staus and my pc is free, also check windows services and leave only the description, I don't know why is it so long to star upward and run the programs that I know is a modest, but Im pc use only statistical programs, office and that's all...

• When installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system?

  Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

  Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.

  First run Memtest86 +:

  Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

  }

  Use a CSV like this:

  
  

  VMName, cd, disc, NewSize
  SEQDEV, "[TEST150A] ISO/pe-defrag - directboot.iso ', 'Disk 1', 35000000

  
  

  And it gives me this error:

  Together-hard drive: cannot bind parameter 'hard drive '. Impossible to convert the value of 'Disk 1' of type 'System.String' type 'VMware.VimAutomation.Types.HardDisk '.

  I tried to run manually

  [vSphere PowerCLI]  Get-SEQDEV hard drive | Together-hard disk - disk hard 'disc 1' - CapacityKB 27000000

  Same thing...

  Together-hard drive requires a hard disk object, not a string containing its name. You need to filter the drive to extend using a where clause clause that you run now all the cmdlet Set-hard drive hard drives.

  Try something like this:

  Get-hard drive - VM $VMName | Où {$_. Name - eq $disk} | Together-hard drive -CapacityKB $NewSize -confirm: $false
