HP Pavilion dv3-4310eo: recovery after HARD drive failure

Hard drive crashed. Replaced with a new drive that is the same size as the old one (500 GB). Start the computer with the recovery DVD. When I open the Recovery Manager all the dining options are grayed out?

Why is this? What should I do?

I followed this guide, but the options are still grayed out. Recovery disk is not working without landing was on the backup partition (I restored it once before without problem).

No way I pay HP for a new set of recovery discs...

My solution is to download an iso of clean windows 7 that triggers very well with my key

Guess I won't again have this problem and I do not have as an asset deal with all HP software crap that accompanies the last of them.

    What it means? I also get messages on Windows 7 hard disk failure is imminent. What is in fact a hard drive failure?

    The problems started after system restore to a point previous (5 days ago) after downloading some updates of the site Web HP that have been identified as relevant, but caused freezes, which is why the restoration to the previous point. Still trying to get an idea of the problem areas. Most things work very well, but Windows Media Player does not properly is the most obvious fault so far. More I bought a new external hard drive to perform the emergency backup, but it is not recognized when I plug. It is however grateful already used very happy memory sticks.

    I'm likely to have a real failure, or is a false reading because things did not settle down properly after the system restore?

    I am not technically very advanced - perhaps at the limit of my understanding so simple popular suggestions/instructions.

    Thanks for all those who have followed this demand. Problem solved - I took it to a local repair shop in the end. While I could probably physically replace the drive myself quite easily, I wanted the confidence of an expert to provide the correct replacement and manages the much larger task to transfer everything at the latest so that I can resume normal with all that where it should be.

    Whenever you get an error message with 24 characters alphanumeric numbers indicating that the hard drive needs to be replaced to solve the problem

    HP will offer a replacement HDD if the laptop warranty is Active, otherwise you can buy a SATA hard drive in a nearby retail store

    Please make sure that you get at least equal as long as the original one in order to use recovery disks. If you need you can buy a bigger, but not smaller hard drive capacity. For example, if you have a 500 GB hard drive you can improve it to 750 GB hard drive, but not 320 GB hard drive

    Please try the troubleshooting below indicated once the steps:
    Step 01. Remove the battery and unplug the power adapter AC.
    Step 02. Press and hold the power button for more than 30 seconds
    Step 03. Plug the AC power adapter / (leave the battery for now)
    Step 04. Press the power button and check if the unit is operating normally

    If the steps listed above is not enough, then you can try reinstalling the hard disk on your laptop

    If the problem persists again please contact HP if your HP laptop is under warranty, HP could replace the hard drive and provide recovery media to restore the operating system to factory after the replacement (if you have not yet created recovery disks/USB support)

    Note: Back up all personal data on an external drive if possible. Otherwise, you can connect the HDD defective via SATA Adapter USB with another PC or a PC even after replacing the HARD drive & put in place of the operating system and try to copy / retrieve files.

  • Recovery and hard drive failure

    System information:

    HP Pavilion dv4-2045dx

    HARD drive: Seagate series ATA Disc Drive (7200 RPM) 320

    OS: Windows 7

    After diagnosis that my hard drive has failed (the original supplied with the notebook), I bought a WD Scorpio 250 GB (5400 RPM) SATA to replace. I ran a diagnostic system on the HP splash screen and it found the new HDD very well. Because my old hard drive contained all the partitioned system recovery, I can't get it back using the player because it no longer works.

    I was hoping to do a recovery of the system with the DVD, I did when I got the computer on the new drive hard, but during the process it has detected that the drive was much smaller than the original and would not allow me to proceed. I don't know what I can do now.

    Do I need another HARD drive with the same requirements as that of the restoration of the system with the DVD, I made? Or am I just bad luck?

    Hello

    It is a problem with the recovery discs do not like a drive smaller than the original.

    However, it is an easy work around if you have (or can borrow) an installation disc Windows 7 at retail which is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, it comes to the retail version accurate, you would need.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key Windows located on the underside of your laptop when requested and when installation 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 a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally delivered with OEM installations.

  • Reinstalling operating system after hard drive failure. new hard drive is smaller

    Is it possible that I can use the smaller hard disk in my slimline model possible s3500f. The original drive has failed and needs to be replaced. I have that I bought a few years ago, it's 300 GB of the disk sata hard donkey used. The reader who couldn't amounted to 500. I don't just have money to buy another hard drive. Nor have the money to buy a vista 64 installation disc. I made the recovery discs when I bought the machine like a good girl should, but now I find out that they will not work to install the OS on the new drive, because it is smaller.

    Is there a way to get around this? My financial situation like so many others has changed radically since I bought the computer and try to get money$ $ for a new hard drive or Setup disk would take time and my son needs the computer for school, which begins this week.

    Thank you in advance to anyone who knows a solution

    Salvation, which will not work because they will not be able to send a file of 3 GB email.

    Your choices as I see it is to make a 32-bit installation media, or have your friend make the 64-bit support and you deliver the completed flash drive, after they test.

    You can start just up and then cancel the installation - just to make sure it will work.

  • Reinstalling windows 8 after hard drive failure

    Let's say I bought a laptop with Windows 8 preinstalled (I'm considering the purchase Lenovo Yoga 13)

    and then one of the following things occur:
    -my hard drive dies
    -I want to repartition the hard disk and format it
    -I want to buy a new hard drive and replace the existing one
    The question: what is the safe way to reinstall the OEM of Windows 8, which comes with the laptop on a clean
    (no restore partition) hard drive?
    Here, the assumption is that I start with a laptop from work 'by default'.

    Some information:
    I read some topics on these forums and my current understanding is that the activation key for OEM Windows 8 is stored somewhere in the BIOS/UEFI and can be removed by windows installed. I'm fine with that. Where can I get the installation media in this case? In the Microsoft store I was informed (by a technician) that I would essentially need to purchase an OEM Windows 8. Certainly, I hope this gentleman, I was talking to does not know his business. I think know that by buying the windows laptop I also buy the license for this particular Windows OEM installed on it (related to hardware and all).

    Hello

    After looking around a bit, I can't find no details on a recovery device at all either. Only something about a picture "Recovery."

    The problem is that if your hard drive is a replacement or reformatted, it seems to me that the image would be useless because the software required to load it would be gone.

    Unless the 'Image' would contain the necessary software to load, and it's doubtful...

    Thus,.

    I would suggest picking up Acronis image, preferably of the Plus Pack version, or something similar...

    I tried a number of programs, including the most free, image and Acronis seems to be the better (and faster).

    There are a few programs that can detect that they have been refilled from an image and require reinstallation... That almost never seems to happen with Acronis images for some reason any.

    You can often find it for sale cheap and sometimes free after rebate, if you want to wait...

    It compresses the Image, she creates and takes much less space as a result...

    I have a 128 GB SSD, responsible for programs that absorb about 60 GB... Acronis compresses the image to 20 GB.

    It reloads the Image on ANY HDD\SSD that is large enough... 60GB for example.

    You can Image the entire drive or individual partitions... In your case, I recommend both as soon as you get the computer. Just to cover all bases.

    The only withdrawal to it is that you will need an external HARD drive or a Flash capacity...

    I make the Images of new OS every time I do a great time of change or put to date. In case of problem, 15 minutes to make a new image is nothing compared to having to start again.

    I currently have about 10 images to win 8 since I installed it taking about 180 GB...

    My understanding is that the installation of Acronis CD is also bootable... which is when you want to use it anyway. I can't confirm that at this time because my bootable CD was burned by the installed version of Acronis and I can't find the original disc to test it.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook: short DST hard drive failure

    System ID 181

    Product ID A3E83AV

    Ran a start-up test and the DST short hard drive failed.  Failure ID is 6BWC6F-65W7JA-QFPK1G-60XA03.  Does this mean that I have to get a new hard drive?  If so what can I get that will be compatible?

    Yes. Unfortunately, the hard drive failed. Use this ID to failure when you contact HP warranty service

    If your laptop is still under warranty, then the replacement hard drive is free of charge for you.

    Check the status of your warranty here.

    If not in warranty, you can buy a portable 2.5 "SATA hard drive or disk SATA SSD with a capacity at least 256 GB. That capacity SSD suports the use recovery media.

    Thanks for the reply. Linksdidn can't help, but I got to customer support in Australia, and they have kindly arranged to send me a set of recovery disks. I put in the new drive today, waiting on the disks to see if it works... I guess that the software license number should be on the BIOS and turn on installation...
