HP Pavilion A6500f - product KQ495AA-ABA-BIOHD 3 error-DVD and HDD as SATA 3 & 4

BIOHD 3 error when diags are run.  BIOS sees DVD / HDD SATA 4/3.  DED/HDD plugged in Sata 2/1. Only 4 Sata ports but bios sees Sata 1-6.  If I plug the DVD/HDD in Sata 4/3, then Bios considers Sata 6/5.  Failed to get 1/2 Sata to see all readers.  Replacement battery Cmos and tried clearing Cmos.  No help.  Suspect the original hard drive is good but the new hard disk was even no problem starting.  For the hard drive setup disk does not start on DVD if new hard drive can not be put in place.  Can select HDD or dvd in startup path but still does not start on dvd or hard drive.  Any ideas?

SATA 3/4 are correct.  1/2 SATA are reserved for IDE devices.  A bad DVD player has caused the problem.  He was apparently suspended the bus and prevents the system from the bootable device recognition.  A new DVD SATA enabled to start and so to reload the operating system.

  • update of hard drive on laptop computer Pavilion model # dv6-2043us, product # VM285UA #ABA

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion laptop model # dv6-2043us, product # VM285UA #ABA with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. It came with a Toshiba model # MK3256GSY, 320 GB 7200 RPM 16 MB Cache SATA 2 Hard Drive. I want to upgrade this drive to a 750 GB Western Digital model WD7500BPKT # 7200 RPM 16 MB Cache SATA 3.0 Gbit / s hard.

    The BIOS will recognize that new drive 750 GB and the system recovery DVD will restore the original software on this new 750 GB drive?

    Thank you for your help.

    Yes it should not be a problem. The BIOS will not limit the size of a SATA hard drive and the recovery disc will work on a drive as large or larger than the original. You can also duplicate the old drive to the new or just use Windows Easy Transfer to create a 'migration' file that will restore your settings and files to the new drive after putting Windows on it. Post back if you need some help with that. Good luck.

  • Pavilion a6500f: can I use my old hard drive as a second drive to the new I install.

    I have a Pavilion a6500f I can access is no longer as he continues to tell me there are registry errors.  My recovery disk (I got a) or do a hard reset or else he will start.  It came with a window that says recovery system or start Windows normally.  I get a new hard drive to it and have a whole new Windows 7 installed.  The thing is that I don't want to lose all my stuff on the old hard drive.  So my question is can I install the OLD hard drive as a second drive to the new?  If I can then I can just copy all the files from the old drive to the new and use the old as a memory drive.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    The simple answer is Yes.

    (1) I would like to replace the hard drive with the same drive size or larger. But does not exceed 2 T.

    (2) I hope you made the original recovery DVD set the original recovery firstly, DVD media DVD + R try as these will save you having to create a driver disk.  If you really have to buy a complete set of recovery, get it here. It will have all the necessary drivers.  Only $27.00

    (3) I copy the files and destroy the old disk. Its usefulness is damaged since 2008.

  • Pavilion a6500f: can I add a second SATA hard drive to my HP Pavilion a6500f?

    I have a HP Pavilion a6500f running Windows 7 Home Premium.  I would like to add a second hard drive to 500 GB 7200 RPM to it as a slave drive.  Can I do this?  And if I can how do I know what size must have the hard drive?

    That your system is 8 years old, I suggest you these:

    (1) clone the old drive to a new drive, either 500 GB or 1 TB.  Use it as your new drive system.  Modern Sata 600 drives are 6 Gbps with 64 MB of cache memory. It will have better performance than older Sata 300 players with 32 MB cache / 3 GB/s.

    (2) your old-school, like the reader of the term 'slave' was a reference to the IDE/EIDE, cabling system.

    (3) all you need is a standard WD or Seagate 7200 RPM disk 3,5 '' hard. Both offer a free disk assistant program to facilitate the process of cloning.

  • Windows 7 on Pavilion a6500f - Clean install freezes

    I'm doing a clean install of Windows 7 Professional on the Pavilion a6500f.

    I want to install on a newly formatted drive partition.

    Everything goes well until the end, when the installer says it finishes the installation.

    Then the computer hangs / crashes.  No movement on the screen, no response from the mouse, etc.

    I guess this is a problem with the video or audio driver, etc, but don't know how.

    NVIDIA has WIN 7 drivers on their site, but how would I integrate/slipstream them in the installation?

    I just wanted to add: it's the 64 bit version of WINDOWS 7 Pro, final version paid version.

    I noticed that someone else had exact same machine and problem installing using the RC version in June 2009 with no resolution.

    Well, the installation problem is solved, but it was a struggle.

    What I did to disable integrated video in F10 Setup and set it to PCI.

    Then I installed an OLD (c 1999) Creative PCI video card that I found in the basement in the PCI slot.

    Windows 7 installation is complete and then I did install all MS Windows updates, including the 2 or 3 elements of pilot which was to monitor Samsung.

    Then removed the PCI card and put configuration CMOS integrated onboard graphics subsystem.

    So far so good, everything is clean in the Device Manager, and the dual boot with XP SP3 works.

    None of this problem stated in the MS. compatibility tool

    Maybe if I had done the upgrade instead of custom there was no video problem (drivers?).

    We'll see what happens as more software is installed.

    Thanks for the tips.
