• Can't access 2nd HARD drive on the Pavilion p6220nl?

  I had installed a second HDD SATA in my Pavilion p6220nl desktop computer by unplugging the DVD/CD player with its SATA data and power cables.  He succeeded and I was using my regular hard drive so my new drive to HARD drive for several weeks.

  Once my new SATA cable arrived, I tried to reinstall my DVD/CD player that I had also only 2 SATA power connectors.  Instead I tried to use very low power for the new HARD drive connector.  Result, I can not access my new HARD drive.  I tried back (i.e. unplugged my DVD/CD drive again and using this SATA power connector instead) and it still won't go.

  I updated my BIOS and tried everything I can think of, but without success.  If anyone can help?  Is there indeed a Molex Pin 4--> adapter SATA connector?  Could I have ruined my new HARD drive with the two small connector and power cables attached SATA power connector?  Is there a specific SATA ports they need to go in.

  Currently the situation is now:

  SATA Slot 0 - drive DVD/CD (data cable connected only)

  1 - usual HD SATA connector

  SATA connector 2 - new HARD drive

  Slot SATA 3 - empty

  Appreciate any advice or assistance.

  Thank you

  As you said, you had it working. Then attached a unknown thread on the disc. Now, reconnect to a wiring known, that worked. Don't know, don't worry. The car was damaged. Sorry!

• How can I put a hard drive of the laptop into a desktop computer?

  I have a HP Pavilion 5000 ZV who died some time ago, and the hard drive is always good. It's 60 GB running Windows Xp. there I got the laptop from a friend because they did not want. Also I have a desktop IBM Aptivia since 1998 and it has a huge 8 GB HDD running windows 98. I want to put the laptop drive in the desktop and take out the old one. I would buy a new hard drive, but it's Microsoft Office 2003 pro. This is the only copy I have and I did re install the product key. I need this computer for my workshop. How to operate? Is there a part I need? If Yes, where can I get a?

  If I understand correctly, you have a laptop HP Pavilion ZV 5000 which doesn't work but has a 60 GB HDD that has installed Windows XP and Office 2003 is also installed.

  You want to put the laptop hard drive in an old desk.

  You have two problems: hardware and software.

  Hardware issues can probably be solved easily (you would need something like this $10--> http://tinyurl.com/d539pwf kit - but read the comments).

  The problem of software is that you can not take an existing installation of Windows XP and completely change the hardware.  If you try, you will need to do a reinstall of Windows before it will work.

  If you have a generic OEM XP install CD, you may be able to do a repair installation (save applications - for example Office 2003), but the CD must be at a same or later version of XP (Home, Pro) and Service Pack level as the version of XP that is installed.  You must also have the product key that is associated with the OEM install CD (I think that the key to the label on the HP will fail).

  More likely, you will need to do a clean install, which will involve formatting the drive.

  If you have the Office 2003 installation CD, you can retrieve its installation key from the drive of the laptop before installing it in the office.  Probably the best way to do this is to put the laptop in a hard drive enclosure external drive, which attach to a working computer and use of Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder using his function to "Load hive".

• How can I wipe old hard drive from the laptop of computer death without jeopardizing the new laptop?

  I got a laptop HP who died - apparently the motherboard is bad.  I have to return the laptop to HP for replacement.  I bought equipment to connect the old hard drive to my new laptop via a USB cable and have recovered files that I need, but I want to erase the old drive hard until I got back.

  There seems to be a lot of variation in the hard drive, programs wiping, and I was wondering if someone could point me to one that could fit here.  I am concerned about the running software on my work to access the old hard drive and accidentally damage my portable hard drive to work laptop.  Who is?

  Thanks for the tips.

  Hi Jenny_812,

  You should be able to as long you are sure to pick the right drive for formatting.  See the following article:

  I'm trying to move from xp to windows 7. I spent all the requirement but she says to install the device driver required to access your hard drive, insert the installation media containing the driver files and then click OK. "what should I do? Where can I find the driver?

  Guess he would seek software/drivers for the chipset MB

  Web site & download the software and drivers. If intel, download the chipset installation

  utility & install it 1. The other would be the SATA or / and drivers for the MB IDE

  controllers, 'Matrix Storage console' would be the one, also chk for desktop

  Internet downloads, amd, and other brand materials would be substantially the same.

  Hello:

  Yes, you should be able to.

  They are the same model series and should have essentially the same key components.

• How can I erase my HARD drive?

  Hey guys,.

  I recently just got a new HARD drive in the mail and it's so much better than the one that came with my Dimension 8250.  My problem is that, because it's faster and things, I want to make my boot drive so that my computer can also improve.  Unfortunately, I can't do without deleting everything on my old hard drive first and then installing XP on my new HARD drive.  To restate, I need to know how to delete my old HDD.
