HP 8470w - SSD OCZ Vertex 450 (512GB) - error 3F0

Hello, I have a brand new HP 8470w and I want to replace with brand new SSD OCZ Vertex 450 (512 GB)HARD drive. After cold start, I get error 3F0. When I ignore this error by pressing ESC, I get in Diagnostics. Drive HARD diag is not that my SSD same poster no matter what error message. There is not also any progress - rest on 1%. When I exit Diag utility I can install and run any OS as usual without any problem. I don't see a drive in the Bios. SSD comes with my laptop will not display any electronic errors, disk HARD as well common. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi guys, hat

    I searched on the net on SSD include slow questions and the only things I found were that I have to activate the option to access HDD AHCI in the BIOS, option that I have not in my BIOS.

    All help aprecciated!

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Please report the number of HP for the PC product.

    Do you know what level of firmware your Vertex 3 is running?   Firmware version 2.22 is the last.  If your firmware is down 2.06, then you need to upgrade gradually.  I would not be to update the firmware if you decide to return the SSD drive. See my information below.

    I think that the card mother MSI has only SATA I, which is very slow for a VERTEX 3 allowing to operate at full capacity.  Frankly, I'm surprised that the VERTEX 3 works even on a SATA what should I wear as much SATA III SSD will not work on a SATA I port.  Review this OCZ VERTEX 3 document.

    You can see if you can return and exchange for another SSD that is backward compatible with SATA I.  Maybe the Vertex 2 or the agility-2 would be better for your needs.

  • Satellite Pro R50-B-12N OCZ Vertex 460 has UEFI Install

    Hello world

    I'm having a great problem with tent to install an SSD in one of our Toshiba laptops and allowing the UEFI. Here is a brief summary of the components involved:

    OCZ Vertex 460 has SSD installed to replace the mechanical HARD drive. -SSD Firmware is up to date
    Toshiba Satellite Pro Portable R50-B-12N - BIOS version is 1.40, CBS version is 1.20
    Windows 7 Enterprise X 64 install
    MDT 2013 1 update to deploy to
    Starting to install Windows 7 with Lite Touch PXE deployment
    Secure boot is disabled
    UEFI enabled

    When I try to install a Windows 7 image, the original MDT deployment process works correctly with no error message. The disc seems to be partitioned correctly for an EFI boot disk, and extracted the install.wim file on the windows partition. Unattend.Xml apply and restart the laptop.

    Each reboot the laptop, however, an error message appears asking to install a system disk and press a key to continue. I don't know this error happening if a startup disk is not detected or the hard disk fails.

    Interestingly, if I disable UEFI and start again the deployment process, this problem does not occur. The laptop restarts and continues the installation without problem when running in MSC mode.

    Can someone answer the following for me queries please?

    (1) if I run in MSC mode, I feel that UEFI is say-abled, so I don't get any of the benefits of the use of instead of the UEFI BIOS. Is this correct?

    (2) Windows 7 is able to UEFI boot as long as Secure Boot is disabled. As it is a SATA drive, there is no drivers needed for this HARD drive to work (according to he site OCZ)-I do not think it is a driver error, as the operating system does not load.

    (3) If you need more details regarding this flaw could list you for me to recover? I have to clean and reinstall the laptop each time in order for me to do now.

    I'd appreciate any help with the above error. Currently, I think it's a fault with the application of portable computers UEFI boot but I would like a third opinion on this if possible?

    Thank you for your time and help with this query.

    Kind regards

  • SSD not work / be detected - error Windows installation on laptop HP Dv6-1149wm

    Well, well, I tried three different nine ssd: 1 kingston v300 120 GB SSD, 2 840 120 GB ssd samsung, and 3 an another kingston v300 120 GB SSD. Tried in this order.

    The Kingston-discs Are not detected by the bios no error or nothing, nada. When it is attached to another computer running windows drives are detected properly. nothing wrong with that.

    The Samsung player- It was the second drive I tried. It has been detected by the bios but diagnosis gave me the '303' fast error. When you install windows via USB, it asked me to drivers before proceeding. When installing from a cd, I could get to the point where I see the drive listed. I would get errors when I would try to partition or format. Not even partition the drive via the command prompt by using diskpart worked. It returns an error indicating an incorrect setting or something like that (Note I could partition the drive here but not format NTFS).  I could manually partition on another system completely. Formatting/partitioning via another system has allowed me to completely enter the installation up to the point where it says "installation of features" then it gives me an error saying that it was impossible to define the local system - or something like that. In addition to that I also tried to install windows on the other system that was working fine but would not transfer to the laptop. I also tried the previos on the ssd drive cloning, but when booting the computer gave me a disc read error.

    My personal desktop (OCZ Vertex 4 128 GB) drive- it has worked. Diagnosis of computer picked up fine and did not point out the mistakes. The only thing is that I tried to install windows on it because I already had a facility there.

    My thoughts– my best guess is that there is a kind of incompatibility with the drives firmware and the BIOS of the computer. The Bios (Insyde h20 F.21) is very limiting in a first time, too easy to use, and not much to do here, second he has not seen an update since 2011. Seems to me that the SSD technology may be advancing faster that HP can follow their updates (this of course assuming it's the BIOS that is at fault)

    I am open to suggestions for ideas, basically anything that can help me at this point. I spent many hours on it and I turned empty.

    In the end, I ended up putting 4 vertex in there. For some reason, the mobo refuses to recognize the kingston ssd. The samsung, I can't say with certainty because it detected well, but wrong on everything. Must have been a bad disc. It's weird that the manual says it does not accept the ssd because many old machines still accept DSS. Any ways long story short the the kingstons were not compatible, probably faulty samsung, the ozc was the only one that worked perfectly.

  • Qosmio G30-194: cannot install on SSD OCZ Qosmio player

    Hi all

    I have a laptop Qosmio G30-194.
    When I have only used the hard drive regularly no problem with Qosmio Player facilities.
    But now, I replaced the HDD to the SSD OCZ.

    At this point impossible to install it.
    Always had the same massege "an error has occurred during the recovery of Qosmio Player! Please retrieve the image again from the beginning."

    Tried to put the Qosmio Player before installing the Windows Vista 32-bit, but the same results. Always used the original restore cd that I have the Toshiba.

    Someone knows a solution, please let me know.
    Thank you
    Kornel

    Hello

    There is a big problem. HDD SSD is too fast ;) and it is not recognized correctly. It is recognized as FlashDisc. I'm sure he's confusing procedure facilities Qosmioplayer. For the installation of the OS there is no problem at all.

    I don't see any solution. Maybe you can try to create a partition of unsllocated 5 GB in the front of the boot (C) partition to see if the Qosmioplayerwill be able to recognize as a destination for the installation. Otherway if you use Vista, but also WinRE partition. Oh man. It's quite complicated.

  • Need help with a new SSD OCZ Agility 3

    I need assistance with my OCZ Vertex 3 60 GB SSD.

    I bought it yesterday because my current HARD drive is too slow.

    The problem is that I can't have my genuine version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit on it and I tried the system recovery DVD, I got from HP.

    Is my laptop: HP G62-b60SD

    Unfortunately my warranty has expired, so I hope someone could help me with this.

    In order to get my work of SSD, I just had to put an illegal version of 64-bit Windows 7 on it.

    But now I can't some functions to work, for example: disabling touchpad, brightness reduction etc.

    I have HP Support Assistant and assistant wireless network from several Web sites.

    How can I get my legal W7 Home Premium with the key functions of work in this regard?

    BTW, I use the SSD as my boot and the main driver and my old HDD is now elsewhere.

    Thank you very much for read/answer/help me already.

    Hello

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the activation code on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    Create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image from the link below (this has to be the same version as your original OEM installation - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, it's the commercial version accurate , you would need).

    Use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to complete the installation of Windows 7 on your new SSD, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA in the request and one time Setup is complete, use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want just that a new installation of Windows 7 without software load additional normally comes with facilities OEM.

  • Portege R700 - Sandforce SSD OCZ and Toshiba BIOS v1.9

    Hello

    It is a question to the Toshiba techy guys. Please can someone confirm compatibility with SSDS OCZ Vertex2 (Sandforce) with the Portege r700?

    Since I've updated the stock HARD drive I had problems with BIOS recognizing the SDS when you restart. If I boot the laptop from the cold, that is nice, DDI is recognized and everything is ok, the problem is intermittent. When requiring to restart the laptop to Windows 7 (64-bit), it hangs at the screen Toshiba Leading Innovation. It seems that the BIOS cannot detect the drive for some reason any and just freezes. I read the threads on the footprint software but am already run version v1.0.2.32 - so think it is independent.

    I've recently updated firmware OCZ Vertex2 to v1.32 hoping that it could solve the problem and there is not. The question might be more compatible with the Toshiba BIOS Sandforce.

    I am running the BIOS v1.9 - please can you guys do something to fix this?

    > That's obviously a problem with Sandforce
    Always is it that there are several different manufacturers of SSDS, and it might be possible that not all the parties meet the same standards.
    In this case, many manufacturers of SSDS provides updates of the firmware, but this isn't always the case so have to test other SSDS

    HP Pavilion DV7-4080US, Windows 7, 64-bit

    I want to replace the existing 500 GB "d" (5400 RPM) drive with an OCZ 240 GB drive SSD SATA III and must make sure that this laptop will support a SATA III SSD drive?

    I am not concerned about the start time that you want to use the SSD for video editing, so I don't anticipate using the SSD instead of the c"" drive.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    Well, this will speed up the startup time of your machine a lot but for editing video may not help much. In any case the SATA III (or 3) is backward compatible with SATA II (or 2) and SATA I (or 1). You're probably on the price/cost. A little program called PC Wizard will tell you the speed of the disk on your computer controller:

  • Why Windows 7 takes my whole 30 GB OCZ Vertex SSD?

    I just installed Windows 7 on my 30 GB SSD and it said '1.08 GB free of 29.7 Go' I have not yet installed other programs... is Windows 7 64 - bit is supposed to be this big?

    Thank you

    The figure of 30 GB, is that GB or GiB, before or after format? And don't forget the use of space pagefile.sys and hyberfil.sys. Clean your temp folder.

    "Are there other background programs that might be too much space?" - each program that you install on your system drive takes place, but I guess you know who. :)

    After installing everything I need, disabling hybernation and like always putting the pagefile on a separate HARD drive, my Win7 x 64 resumes 12.3 GB.

  • x 220 mSata SSD OCZ Nocti Win7 install fails

    Hello guys,.

    Today, I installed a new Nocti of OCZ 60 GB SSD in my x 220 msata location. at the same time, I got a hitachi 320 GB 7200 RPM lenovo stock disc.

    the ssd is perfectly recognized by the bios. I use version 1.22.

    now, I want to install win7 on my ssd, which has already been installed on my hard drive.

    I put my copy of win7 on a USB key, it starts, select windows install.

    However, arriving at the screen "Select the driver to install.", I get an error thrown to me:

    "A required CD/DVD drive decive driver is missing. If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. »

    I have not driver on my hd/ssd and States of Web site of ocz which a) none is needed, and b) that none is provided.

    I tried to install without having the hd attached, the same error.

    Any of you guys have ideas on how to possibly solve the problem?

    See you soon!

    for one, I have not use this ssd in a laptop.
    It's a terrible sandforce laptop.
    You must use one of the intel ready models boot much better power profile.
    more sandforce tell it different not good for the laptop.

    What is a clone?
    you did, or a copy of win 7 with the windows 7 usb tool.

    You must use a very important 4 GB model or bios does not have a usb of larger size.
    more little won't hold win7.
    You must convert an iso, then make the USB bootable and had not accused the file system on the key.
    I use a special wrench just to install win 7 only.

    in the bios, you can select the USB as a boot first or 2nd order.
    2nd, so you must press the start command menu to select a boot device.
    you not on port 0 is your right to Board, you will need to select the first boot to usb in this menu.
    Make sure also that in bios flat disk of port 0 is not stopped the ist and the msata is moved to the top online.

    some easy ways could be pulling the 2.5 and then he select auto.
    You must specify the pc what you're doing.
    you don a thing out of use and who does not go to port 0 but a new port for the reader.

    If you select usb in the bios the first order when you reboot your system with the installation it will reinstall in a loop that why tyou select not this first, but use the menu screen. F9 or something depoends on the pc manufacturer.
    If you fall into a traction of the loop, the main cause of the image is already there so next restart windows by default to the disk image and complete the installation.

    I know a lot of info here but win 7 can be easy to install or hard depending on if you have it down pat.
    I did over 100 installs so I know everything inside and out and even I forgot to do something from time to time.

    Check again it is a good image on the button who made the right size in the right way and he fully bootable (huge deal - bootable)).
    Select the msata as the new boot ist or 2nd as rom is foirst for most.
    the old disk is 2nd.
    PROMT you F to select the USB drive as the new boot device.
    is nothing another pluged and do not use the combined port but I did lol he worked or sata port 3.

    ALSO - it's a big deal make sure that usb get you is a start control device which means power immediately.
    normally we lone usb on most laptops.
    Some will not be powered until this that completely initialized, this means no power when first restart.
    Commen problem on mobile phones when we have the beta version of windows on the USB.
    Some phones only maintain a usb on the first step.

    look at the light of thumb it will show if cela a port not starting.
