HP pavilion dv6 did not start

I have hp pavilion dv6 in 2 or 3 times in 2 years (fortunately only 2, but I'm still wondering) windows 7 could not load.

I got error as there is no current startup disk. After 5 attempt, everything was fine, and the problem did not apear for several months

Could this be bad sector of hd on the hard drive boot sector?

It might be a bug in the BIOS. It could also be a loose contact between the hard disk and the connector. 2 x a year is nothing serious and I'd be worried about this...

  • My HP Pavilion DV6 will not start after replacing the screen

    I just replaced a cracked screen by following the instructions in the maintenance manual and now it does not start. The power light turns on and the fan works but nothing else happens. What can I do to trouble shoot this problem?

    The most common problem is the connection of the cable to the screen.  Make sure that it is tight. Check the connection to the motherboard as well, but it's usually OK.

  • Pavilion dv6 3010so not start

    My laptop does not start correctly. This happened after I had to force close is there a few days after it froze.

    When I start it, it almost goes right to the black (I am able to press ESC to switch to the Boot Menu screen). The power light is on, as well as not soun andWiF lights (F11 and F12) and the hard drive and the battery is running

    I tried a hard reset, but it does not work. I tried to connect to the TV, but I get no picture

    I tried to run a start-up test and a run to here, and the two tests failed

    When I enter the start menu and press F11 to perform a system recovery, I get a blue screen with a picture (original startup screen, maybe?), and after about 10-15 minutes, I have the option to format.

    Should I format, or even send it in for repair? I would really like to avoid this because I have files, I want to first of all access.

    So, it's official. The HARD drive has failed. It's a little depressing, but well, they are easy to replace!

  • Pavilion dv6 does not start.

    I realize how close to, it is impossible to help someone fix a computer on the Internet, but I thought I should give it a shot.

    When I start the computer to the top, volume, power, wifi, the trackpad lights and numlock LEDs and fan turns on, then only the capslock light flashes. Nothing else happens. The screen remains empty and therefore does not allow me to get into the BIOS. No more noises not coming from the laptop. I am unable to do anything to change the lights on the computer. Pressing caps, numlock, winlock or the trackpad button do nothing.

    I don't know what caused the problem. The computer worked well the night before and the next morning, when I tried to turn it on, it happened. I think that the symptoms I have outlined point to a hard drive problem, and my warranty has expired. So before I crack this thing open and start playing with it, someone has it any suggestions?

    Hello

    As you're laptop is out of warranty, the best advice I can give would be to take it to a local computer repair shop and get an estimate (and to confirm the diagnosis) for the cost of repairs.  At cost less this way you can weigh-up this repair against the cost of a new laptop and then a decision.

  • Satellite M50: Windows did not start because of a corrupted system file

    Hi all.

    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite M50. When you turn on the laptop, a message appears: "Windows did not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \windows\system32\config\system»

    I am aware of my product recovery CD-Rom and have inserted - however, I don't want to reformat my HARD drive as I have files I back (foolishly) not upward.

    Is there another method to repair the corrupted file without having to wipe all files on the HARD drive? (I don't have an XP CD - the operating system is loaded OEM when the laptop was purchased)

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    Hmm, using the repair console could be a good way to copy or replace the damaged or missing files on the HARD drive.
    BUT you need to start the console of Windows XP CD of original Startup Repair.
    Without this CD, you will not be able to repair the operating system. The Toshiba Recovery CD contains only image files and does not start the repair console.

    Now the question is; How to back up data.
    You can remove the HARD drive and connect it to the PC second via the external USB HARD disk controller.
    Then you should be able to copy important files on the second computer.
    After backup files you can start the installation from the recovery CD.

    Good luck

  • Windows Pro L10 satellite did not start successfully

    I have a satellite pro L10 at home which was working fine yesterday.
    However, I'm going to turn in today and after the toshiba screen comes up I get a message on the screen saying "We apologize for the inconvinience, but windows did not start successfully" it gives then options such as safe mode, safe mode with network, last known configuration and start windows normally.

    No matter what is selected, I get the loading windows screen but then it goes black and nothing happens.
    Is there something I can do manually which will remedy this because stupidly

    I have recent work here that has not yet been saved!
    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    In my opinion, there is nothing to do because the operating system cannot start, even in SafeMode with network, last known configuration, etc.
    You need to reinstall the operating system

    If you want to backup the data on the HARD disk, you will need to access the HARD disk
    You can create a bootable CD WinPE which help you to gain access to the HARD drive

    Download WinPE image (use google) and create the bootable CD. You will need to burn the image to CD in order to get a bootable CD.
    Can boot from this CD, backup the data on the external HARD disk and then reinstall windows

    Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

  • Error when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

    Windows XP SP3 problem

    Recently, I met a problem with my PC and was forced to use the system recovery. Now I'm back to factory settings and try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on my computer. Windows Update won't work for me, that whenever I try to update I get [error number: 0x8024400A]. I think it's because I use Service Pack 2, or that's what I concluded after researching the problem, anyway.

    This is not my real concern, however. Because I could not get the update automatically, I tried to download and install the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers" myself. The first time I did it, I restarted the PC after the installation and was met with "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "  I went into safe mode and went to a just system restore point before SP3 was installed, but now I don't know how to install it correctly without encountering this problem after reboot. I'm hardly the easy just stick with SP2 when there are potentially important available updates. How can I get Windows Service Pack 3 is installed on my PC?

    It's certainly interesting!

    If the cause of your problem is to have a HP PC with an AMD processor and an original image on your hard drive (and of course it sounds like this is the case), the solution should be to rename the file intelppm.sys and launch the sp37394.exe patch. Once done, the SP3 file that you downloaded from here:
    SHOULD work!
    I'm puzzled why there is no intelppm.sys file in your directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.
    Since you recently returned to square one with your PC ("return to factory settings"), then you may as well run the patch from this page:
    and try the SP3 Setup file again.
    But, first, let's be absolutely sure that we are both using the same terminology. Please answer the following questions:
    1. have you safely backed up ALL your data?
    2. what method did you use to ride "back to factory settings? I think that your choices have been a destructive restore (full) and a (partial) non-destructive recovery. The first erases the disk and leave you with a pristine image and NOTHING ELSE (which means that all of your programs and data get deleted). The other (which does not always correctly) is supposed to leave programs and data intact.

    "Windows did not start due to a problem in the disk of the computer configuration."

    I have re-installed windows XP on my laptop using my USB because the laptop doesn't have a CD player. I used "WinToFlash" which allowed me to convert my installation CD to run on my USB. But no matter what I do I can't fix it. I am very good with computers but I have never encountered this problem. I can not re - install using my USB again because I get the error, and I can't boot the PC because I get the error. When I press a key it just restarts... Any help? Please?

    If you can boot into the BIOS screen, check if the USB is given as a choice of boot.  Do as the first in the boot order.

    Also this BIOS is set by default and if not go back to the default settings (see the owner's manual I don't know what computer you have)
