Hard drive is not displayed full size

Hi all... This is my first post in the forum and hope to share details on the problem that I am facing with my portable Smart Touch PC envy.

My Lptop configuration is as follows:

The problem started when I went to a recovery of windows from the HP Recovery Manager. Initially, before my C drive recovery showed as a space of nearly 500 GB.

When I went for a recovery the first time she abandoned and then again started the recovery, which succeeded. But to my surprise, it gave me two options to start in one was Windows 8 and the other HP RM (ESP). As usual, I chose 8 Windows and the laptop started fine, but to my surprise I saw that my C drive was reduced to 80 GB instead of the 450 + GB of space I had earlier. I searched the net and found that HP RM (ESP) was another partition and I could delete it by typing msconfig and then switch to the tab startup and remove the HP RM (ESP) OS and just delete. It also worked well for me, but I am still unable to use the full of the hard drive I have. Support HP can tell me what I need to do to recover the complete HD drive.

you need to expand your partition to occupy unused space.

Run > diskmgmt.msc > enter

This will bring up the Disk Manager. Right-click of the 80 GB partition and expansion through empty space.

  • external hard drive is not displayed in disk utility

    I have a drive (2 TB) seagate desktop external hard, while the backup time machine HDD power adapter was pulled from the socket. Now the hard drive is not recognized (both on the utility disk and office) of my mac pro book works on os x el capitan, seeing the hard drive is disabled, but I can feel and hear the operation of the hard drive.

    Hello amartnez,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    From your post, I see that your drive external hard seagate was pulled from the socket during backup with Time Machine, and now it is not recognized by your MacBook Pro. I know how it is important to ensure that you are able to connect your external drive to your Mac. I have something I want you to try.

    Because the external hard drive seems to be working on another computer (iMac), please try a different USB port on your MacBook Pro and see if it recognizes the external hard drive on the desktop and in disk utility. If so, that means you have a problem with this specific USB port on the MacBook Pro.

    See you soon!

  • HP Envy Ultrabook 6 t-1000 CTO: HARD drive is not displayed

    Hello.

    I had the Windows Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) once or twice when using simple everyday applications on my Ultrabook. The results were either not different on Mode without failure. After awhile, I started having 'No Bootable disc' error while starting up. Recovery (press F11) will not appear so. I tried the HP Diagnostics (by pressing F2 at startup) and Test the hard drive as well as the Test of memory shows PASSED on the formats of short or long.

    I tried the following:

    1. I did some research on Google and entered in the BIOS/Insyde utility (by pressing F10 at startup), loaded default installation (by pressing F9), saved changes and did a restart, but I get the error again.

    2. I downloaded Windows 7 64-bit Microsoft store, created a boot USB and plugged. I was able to access the Windows Installation Page, but he wouldn't show my hard drive at all.

    3. I find the support page of my product on the site HP and downloaded the latest drivers, put it in a USB device and booted up the system from the Windows Setup disc. On the page where it was supposed to show my internal hard drives, it showed only USB drives and there is an option "Load Driver" I clicked on and selected the driver files I downloaded from the HP website. Everything was going well until I chose iaStor.inf... this time, the system has hung up and the BSOD appeared with an error stating the file 'iaStor.sys '.

    My questions:

    1 if diagnostic Tests are passed, I can assume that the material is well?

    2. Although I already placed an order for HP recovery discs, I doubt if it could help because my HARD drive drivers seem to be missing. What is your opinion?
    3. is there a way to reset zero/reload drivers BIOS/Insyde utility?

    My system features:
    Laptop model: PC portable HP Envy 6
    Product no.: A9G58AV (the back panel laptop says A9G30AV)
    {Information}
    Processor: 2nd generation Intel Core i5 - 2467 M CPU @ 1.6 GHz + Intel HD Graphics 3000
    BIOS version: F.0D
    Total memory: 4 GB
    Operating system: Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    HARD drive: 500 GB 5400 rpm SATA RAW 7mm hard drive with 32 GB WSSD faster reduction of the hard disk Cache

    Unfortunately at that I disagree with Paul and I think that you may be looking for a bad motherboard, but we would like first to try to remove the disc of WSSD 32 gig.

    Here is the Manual:

    Repair manuals

    See Page 40. Unfortunately, this model is a little difficult to disassemble, but measures are set out in the manual. If it is still under warranty, you can't do that. If the hard drive passes the test of F2 then I tend to think that it's not the hard drive.

  • Drive external DRIVE does not display full disk space

  • Install hard drive does not display complete space after failure bootcamp

    If this problem is shallow, but I did a ton of research, and I'm stuck.

    I tried to install Windows 10 with the BootCamp assistant and there was a mistake and restarted my MBP (mid-2015, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, 1 TB SSD). Upon restart, the partition of windows seems to be there, but when I tried to start Windows (restart now option key), I found myself with only one option, which was to start in Mac OS X. Fine. So I started in Mac and went to the wizard bootcamp again and this time, I had the option to remove windows, so I did, which was good, because I was going to just to try new BootCamp assistant...

    -BUT (here's the point of this post)-

    After the deleted bootcamp windows partition Wizard, my Mac partition was left on its reduced size, which is 901,34 Go (before "assistant" training camp, I got 999,35 GB, it's a 1 TB drive).

    I did a lot of things to try to remedy this situation, but nothing seems to work:

    -J' resized the partition in disk utility (which continued to give me errors, until I turned off FileVault), so now my SSD shows only a single partition to 1 TB in size.

    -J' tried to run first aid on both the disk (SSD Apple) AND partition (Sean HD), but which shows all go well.

    -I went through the Terminal to run the/dev/disk0 repairdisk diskutil command and it seems that the partition plan seems to be OK.

    I would avoid using testdisk, because I think I would mess something up, but if I have the right direction, I could predict the future.

    I DON'T want to format the drive and start over, because I would be really sad to have to reinstall/remake ~ 800 GB of things again (I am a music producer). And, Yes, I backed everything up, but again everything is too tedious (do once was quite tedious as it may be).

    You notice you have a recovery of 98 GB of HD, which is usually about 650 MB? What were the exact steps you have taken to address the issue that you have after that BC did not work correctly? Did merge partitions incorrectly?

    Hi xdeeep,

    As readers do not appear in disk management, the problem is likely related material.

    Check if the drives are detected properly in the output system BIOS (Basic). If they are not listed, it is possible, that the discs are damaged.

    If the drives are listed, try to perform a system restore.

    System Restore can return your files system to a point in time before you noticed a problem, without affecting documents, photos, or other personal files. If the system restore does not resolve the problem, you can undo the restore operation and choose a different restore point.

    Now that you are on the factory settings, I advise Dell DataSafe Local Backup uninstall and upgrade to the latest version of Dell backup and restoration which has many bugs/improvements, including the ability to restore to another hard drive which is useful in case the hard disk fails in the future or you decide to upgrade later to an SSD. The XPS 8300 running perfectly with a SSD, I have mine put in place with one. Then you can create a Rescue Disk (external hard drive Bootable) or Backup factory (Bootable USB Flash Drive) that will be promoted the recovery compared to the facts media with Dell DataSafe Local Backup.

  • iMac 27 "mid-2011 hard drive failed, fan to full after the removal of HARD drive

    iMac (27 inch, mid 2011)

    2.7 Ghz i5

    12 GB of RAM

    I have a fault where the HARD drive fan runs at max speed (RPM 5431, 51 * C temp).

    The first symptom was a rattling noise from the factory 1 TB HARD drive, which has disappeared from the system, to be replaced by a disk of 4 GB in size. Then the fan started running at max speed.

    A few months ago, I installed a 2nd drive HARD, an SSD and use this to all the data, so the 1 TB drive HARD original was basically unused and empty. To try and stop the fan and also run the disk diagnostics failed I've removed it from the iMac. However the HARD drive fan is always full.

    I ran the Apple Hardware Test and received the error message: 4SNS/1/40000000: TH00 - 9,000

    Given the primary SATA HDD is now removed, I also set the temperature probe? Are there other fixes to this problem of fan? I didn't intend on replacing the HARD disk immediately that this is not necessary at this stage.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    First of all, I'm Dutch so I hope that I do not have too many mistakes in my English writing.

    I bought a 2800-200 Satellite at a friend's House. This laptop has a problem.
    When it is started is says "insert the disk in the drive system. Press a key when readya?.

    My bios is ACPI BIOS version 1.80
    In Pheripheral in Bios it says disc hard = not used Mode.

    On page two discs i/o: HARD drive: no drive.

    I tried two hard drives and the two were not working and not recognized in the BIOS.
    I have no CD of restoration.

    My questions:

    What kind of central computer has this laptop?
    Can someone help me with the recovery CD?
    What can I do to fix this?
    How can I change my BIOS so that the HARD drive is recognized?

    My hard drive is MK2023GAS and is not broken. There is nothing on this HARD drive.
    But also with the disk hard 10 GB of origin, I had the same problem.

    I hope you can help me and once again I apologize for my English.

    Hello

    I'll try to help you my friend.

    > When it is started is says "insert the disk in the drive system. Press any key when ready
    This message appeared on my laptop after the HARD disk is dead.
    I had to replace the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

    I guess that it of the same problem with your laptop. The HARD drive is not present or not recognized, and you will need to install a compatible HDD for the operation of the OS.

    I have google a bit and discovered that this laptop comes with the 10 GB HARD MK1016GAP of Toshiba drive. It supports the interface ATA-2/ATA-3/ATA-4/ATA-5.

    Please note that many BIOS have a limit of size of HARD drive. This means that not all HARD drive sizes are supported! I assume a 20 GB should be compatible, but this is just my own opinion
    > How can I change my BIOS so that the HARD drive is recognized?
    The BIOS can be modified outside the update (check page driver Toshiba-> Archive-> archive of Satellite).
    But vary important is that you use a compatible HARD drive.

    > Can someone help me with the recovery CD?
    Don t know if you will be able to order this CD at the service provider allowed in your country, because the laptop is really an oldie. But you should ask the guys.
    What you is to install the OS from the Microsoft CD-ROM and then could install drivers needed.

  • Primary hard drive 0 not found Dell Latitude

    Hello

    I just bought 2 notebooks of Dell Latitude D800 with no operating system. The first laptop is fine, but the second, when I turn it on it shows the Dell screen with the loading bar. The loading bar is to halfway to the end when it freezes. The system freezes on this screen for about a minute, then it beeps twice and a black screen that says:

    "First hard drive 0 not found '.

    No bootable devices - don't strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for Setup utility.

    So I go into the BIOS and see under "internal hard drive" and he says: 'no '. I checked and make sure the hard disk has been activated, and it is.

    I took the hard drive and reinstalled it. Nothing. The drive is a Toshiba 40 GB. In addition, mention, the reader makes a weird noise (not the click of death) and the hard drive on the laptop stays on all the time.

    Other D800 I mentioned boots very quickly and displays a no. OS screen, which is very good.

    So is my dead HDD?

    Thank you

    It is quite clear that the BIOS does not recognize the hard drive.  I suspect that the IDE controller on the motherboard has failed.

    Given that you have two cell phones similar to fool around with, probably the fastest way to isolate the problem is to swap hard drives.  Call the laptop that does not have one and one that works B
