HP pavilion Dv6 laptop: does not start in normal mode, safe mode

Hi all

I have HP Pavilion DV6 laptop with windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS. It was working fine up until two or three days.

After that some software upgrades, it has stopped booting.   When I tried to start it in safe mode, it stops at disk.sys.

I don't have win 7 OS CD or recovery CD.  So I downloaded the trail version of windows 7 SP1, I want to install this, but he is suspended the windows logo.  I Googled it has bitten, I loaded a linux kernel and access the hard disk.  I backed up all the files required by using this boot of linux.

I don't know what to do now?  What is the problem with my system. When I ran the drive diagnostic. It was a failure. That means that I can't use this HARD drive?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Concerning

Stéphane

Hi stephane,

Well the error code certainly would indicate that the player began to fail, but just in case, you might try to wipe the entire hard drive first and then reinstalling the operating system as described below.

Download and install Killdisk on the link below - (this application will write zeros to the entire disk).

http://Software.LSoft.net/KillDiskSuiteFree-Setup.exe

Download and install ImgBurn on the link below.

http://download.CNET.com/ImgBurn/3000-2646_4-10847481.html

Access the application of disc kill you have installed in all programs, open the main folder, then select Bootable Disk creators, then the BACK Bootable CD Creator that will burn the ISO on a blank CD bootable.

During the following process do not worry about all warnings as your Windows 7 installation disk will reformat the HARD drive.

Insert this CD into your PC which is unable to load the operating system properly. Close Notepad, and then start again to boot from the CD of Killdisk and follow the instructions on the screen to kill disk.

A brief description of the process here is Killdisk.

Use it to wipe the entire hard drive, Select (80 h) and press f10 (you will also need to type a confirmation and press enter) - ( This will make sure to include all of the partitions , and then start the process - this may take a few hours!).

When the process is complete, remove the CD of Killdisk and try to reinstall Windows 7.

If it still does not work, I think your only option is to replace the HARD drive.

Kind regards

  • Why I can't get online in safe mode with networking? Does not start in normal mode.

    I can't get my computer starts in normal mode.  It starts only in safe mode.  I can choose the mode safe mode with networking so I can get online, but that's all... just safe mode.  Can I do to solve this problem?  I don't have a lot of money and a new computer is not an option at the present time.  Any help out there?  I have also no sound.  I tried to reinstall my windows xp, but it won't let me.  I have XP Pro and SP3.

    Hello splunk2011,

    Please contact the Microsoft Answers forum with this problem!

    After reading your post, my understanding of the issue is that you are unable to start in Normal Mode and as such, cannot be online within Mode safe mode with networking.

    Because we can start in Mode safe mode with networking, this tells us that a driver or a program from loading at startup may cause the problem.  To solve this, I would try a clean boot.

    More details about this is located at the following link:

    Today my laptop stopped load so it was still plugged in, ive tried turning on with and without so that connected battery and still nothing is my battery or power cord my problem? The cord connected to the ac area seems loose also, but except that there's no damage.

    Ok. To solve your problem.

    Shake gently the connector to the laptop or the power connector from the power adapter does the led flicker?

    The led charge\power is a diagnosis which lets you know if the power adapter is working or has failed.

    If the led does not illuminate the resolution of the problems that I have described is performed, then the power adapter has failed and must be replaced.

  • computer does not start in normal mode

    HP Pavilion dv9000, 32-bit, Windows Vista Home Premium, service pack 2

    The computer was working normally. I connected a HDMI cable to use a larger external monitor (hp w2207h). I did several times without problem. I plugged in the cable, then turned on the external monitor. The screen of the laptop goes immediately black that I turned on the external monitor (not like a normal screen transfer). The external screen has no image. The f4 button did nothing. I turned off the external monitor. All disconnected. I couldn't get a picture on the laptop. Finally, I pushed the power button until the computer turns off. I restarted the computer with no attachments. Power goes to the screen on a black screen. The 'hp invent' logo appears then. Then Microsoft name with the long box with green lines running from left to right. So far, so good, everything seems normal. Then, after a minute or two lines green running, the computer stops and the screen goes black, just at the time must appear the opening of session and password screen. The hard drive light also stops flickering, and all what happens is the fan works and there is a black screen. The computer froze. I let the computer frozen for an hour. Nothing happened. I am able to restart computer in SafeMode (f8), but the screen is filled with columns of red dashes. The computer will not update in safe mode. In addition, a new message is displayed. While running in safe mode, instead of my normal screensaver appearing, a message appears that says "the screen saver can't run because it requires a more recent or compatible with Direct3D video card." I don't know even what is Direct3D. I am grateful for the suggestions or pointers to internal diagnostic programs or free online diagnostic tools links. I also never set up system restore.

    Hi HK-Sheko,

    Looks like your video drivers must be updated for Vista.  You can go to the HP Web site:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&OS=228&product=1842189

    Or go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your video card for the latest Vista drivers.

    I hope this helps!

  • Windows does not start in normal mode after the Trend Micro update a few days ago. I can only work in safe mode. Whenever it freezes in normal mode just after typing my password. Help, please.

    Trend Micro update

    If the information below does not help, contact Trend Micro because it is their product that caused the problem:

    http://eSupport.trendmicro.com/default.aspx

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  • G4-2040TX Pavilion: laptop does not start in UEFI mode

    Hi all. I have a problem with my laptop. In my laptop BIOS (InsydeH20 03.72.32F.26), there is an option to turn the traditional way. I formatted my drive of thumb (v220w HP 8 GB) to FAT32 using Rufus and create bootable UEFI with her. After that restart, change the legacy mode to disable, reboot again and it says 'Device not found Boot (3F0)', it's normal right? Since I changed the mode of inheritance, but after you press F9 (menu Boot Device), is empty. Return the error code and press F2 (diagnostic) because it focuses on UEFI too, but what I get is "diagnosis HP worm. 1.6.0.0"and I already installed ver 5.9.0.0, so I made a conclusion that my BIOS is broken/corrupted and touched my UEFI mode. All Solutions? Thanks in advance

    PS: Sorry if I'm a noob or my English is not good

    The tutorial will explain to a GPT format. Article will be also describes the creation of a system associated with EFI partition, which is required for an operating system to boot into EFI mode.

    Disable legacy mode is expected to start-up in EFI if the hard drive and the OS are configured in a GPT partition with a correct BCD file and the EFI partition.

    I would test this on a spare hard drive if I were you. I always do it this way to avoid the startup scenarios when no bad experience types of partitioning. It gives me a 'B' plan to fall back on, just in case things go south.

  • HP Pavilion dv9000 Laptop does not start

    Power light is on, but the screen is black. Other lights are not on.  How will I know if I need to do a hard reset, replace the motherboard or buy a new laptop.

    Hello

    First, try a hard reset:

    Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
    Press and hold the power button for more than 15 seconds.
    Plug the DC power adapter (leave the battery for now)
    Press the power button

    View your results.

    If no joy, repeat the hard reset in a dark room and have a flashlight handy. Shine the flashlight on the LCD screen. If you see a very Dim normal Windows login screen so the display inverter is probably not and must be replaced.

    Is your laptop still under warranty? Check the label of arcoded on the bottom of the laptop.

    I have a XP computer. During use, the power supply cord unplugged and computer is dead.

    Repair the Windows XP installation - you should have all your files intact.

    A repair install will replace the system files with the files on the XP CD used to the repair facility. It will leave your applications and settings intact, but Windows updates will have to be reapplied.
