• Pavilion dv7-4269wm 8.1 update problem

  Try to update windows 8 to 8.1 and Pavilion dv7-4269wm does not start in windows. failed to retrieve

  Hello MechPilot,

  Thank you for your kind cooperation.

  After the other pure full install win 8 and diligently do all the updates and patches. And verification of the latest drivers for Windows 8.  Everything works great.  Then came victory 8.1 installation update of the windows store.  No luck. Same problem as before. Windows 8.1 will not work. He went into "Recovery screen. It seems that windows has not loaded correctly"once AGAIN.

  Chatted with the technology from Microsoft that has managed to take control of my laptop. He ran a scan to find corrupted system files. 100% OK.   My activation key has been authorized.  He has tried several things but was unable to start correctly in windows. The second Microsoft technology repeated the same tests, but it also seemed perplexed.  Why it run ok with 8 victory, but not with the victory. 8.1 (only in safe mode)

  I asked if it was possible that when windows 8.1 updates, he would check for the latest drivers and load a new video driver that is not compatible with this laptop. Possible.

  Then I disabled the graphics card in the device (in safe mode) Manager.  Restarted the computer and windows 8.1 came to life, with no error message. But in lower resolution.  Windows find no driver loads a generic driver of the weak reference that worked. Then I went to the web site of the graphics card and downloaded the "Windows 8" driver!   Windows 8.1 NOT THE MOST CURRENT driver. Of course, the latest video driver will not work with this laptop. The next earlier version seems to work very well.

  Thanks to the support of fine hand-holding technology at Microsoft and your fine concern and assistance, I don't give up, and something finally worked. Wooooopee!

  Keep your good work and thank you so much.

• HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx: the HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx upgrade hard drive

  Can I replace the stock 640GB hard drive in HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx with a 2 to or is there a limit of 1 TB?

  If not, I would like to add another hard drive in the second empty Bay, but don't see any plug for the extra cable in this notebook.

  Hi @LaurieJC ,

  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7-4285dx Notebook and want to improve the hard. Here is a link to your service manual page 48 for Hard drive specifications. I checked on the possibility of installing 1 TB and it shows me if you keep to 1 TB 2.5 internal SSD SATA 6.0 GB/s • 555 MB/sec in reading, 500 MB/s write plug, you'll be fine.

  I hope that this address your concerns.

  Thank you.

• HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea second hard drive

  I recently bought a HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea (XE274EA #ABU). One of the reasons why I chose this laptop was because it was announced as being able to have two hard drives.

  When I open the HDD I discovered that it there is no way to install a second hard drive, because the cable and the caddy is missing.

  Anyone know the part number for it? The necessary cable is longer, so the previous parts for DV7 don't work with it. I called my local provider of HP, and they did not know the number of the piece, which is a little ridiculous. I probably have to pay RIP-OFF prices for something that should have been included in the laptop in the first place.

  HP has not yet, but do to the sites of third parties.

  These guys are the main suppliers of spare hard drive caddy. It will work. HP eventually will do the part available but don't hold your breath. $40 is a bit strong but not terrible. HP will charge more when they make available.

• Pavilion dv7-6143 cl hard drive

  Hello

  My lap top is 3 years old, and since I got it I had problems with the hard drive. HP replaced it last year, and it's broken again. I run the hard drive test, and it shows that the hd is full. It is not the case, because when I started in safe mode, he showed plant space. After that I booted up average reguar, power has been very slow, and when I tried to stop him, he is crushed. I just need a replacement, do not know what should I llok for. Can also use my recovery disk to download the drivers and the OS? The one I received from HP had all of the preloaded applications.

  Thank you

  Hello

  The following HARD disk is an example that would be perfect for your laptop.

  750 GB hard drive.

  The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 64 of your & Maintenance Guide.

  Your recovery disks will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They also recreate the original scores, including the recovery Partition - this procedure is detailed in the document of HP here.

• HP Pavilion DV7 - 4183CL: what HARD drive can I install in a HP Pavilion DV7 - 4183CL?

  Hi all

  Realized that my DV7 - 4183CL has an empty HARD disk can you please suggest what tech HARD drive config do I add? Thanks in advance.

  It will take any hard disk 2.5 inch wide portable SATA. The real issue is the amount of space that you want to add, and what is your budget? The second hard drive is not bootable, so it's purely a place to store files. 500 GB drives are cheap and 500 gigs is a ton of space for music, photos, movies, even.

  You're going to need a second hard drive enclosure and the connector:

• Pavilion dv7-6050ec 2nd HARD drive

• HP Pavilion Touchsmart 14 b109: hard drive problem

  computer won't work on anything it goes directly to the version 1.6.0.0 - BIOS.  Memory HARD DRIVE CHECK, THEN IT check Smart ascreen Test: failure failure ID: 9UXEKT-6ASC7hxMFAWXF-60E330.-product ID EOX70ua #aba hard drive 1

  It seems that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If this is not the case, a laptop SATA hard detail can be used. Just be sure to get a quality at least equal the original in order to use recovery disks. It may be big, but not small ability more. For example if you have a 500 GB hard drive you can use a 750 GB hard drive, but not a 320 GB hard drive.

• Pavilion Elite Hi - 1280t hard drive problem

  When I do a control I have and go into the installation program which shows the new third sata hard drive I installed.  All say non-raid drive to the right.  It also has an option to create a raid volumn on the 0 of the solid state disk.  The new drive is not displayed in windows 7.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Do you mean h8 - 1280t instead of what you have published under the name of your PC product? There is no salvation - 1280t sold by HP...

  This seems to be your desktop CTO (configure to order). What was the original config? You have a pair of SSD?

  Type of computer in the search programs and files, select and click computer management in programs that appear above, and then select and then click Disk Management in the left pane of the tree. You should now have a view and the State of your hard drives installed in the Central upper and lower part of the computer management window.  Use the Windows Snipping Tool to save and post the image here.

  

  In windows you can right click on the drive on which is your new addition. That will invoke the options available for the new drive. You can create a simple or dynamic volume and format the drive among other options. Make sure you that you gave the reader a recognizable name so you do not wipe your operating system by mistake. (I know the name of the example is silly in terms of today ' hui)

• Pavilion N5415 notebook replacement hard drive

  I have an older Pavilion N5415 Notebook and hard drive died. HP no longer wears the replacements I can order online. The old drive is an IBM & reg Travelstar 4200 RPM 10 GB, ATA/IDE, 2.5 "x 9.5 mm. I need to know what I can safely replace this drive with." I found one on amazon.com with the following specifications and I need to know if it will work:

  • Hitachi Travelstar 4 K 120 HTS421280H9AT00 80 GB portable hard drive
  • Buffer 8 MB spindle speed 80 GB storage capacity IDE UDMA/100 4200 RPM interface
  • 7.1 ms average latency average 11 ms read seek time format 2.5 inch 9.5 mm drive height factor

  What other specs do I need to be concerned in addition to rpm and physical size?

  Thank you!

  32 GB is only a problem on some old computers... no need to worry. Once you have passed this barrier the next barrier is 137 gigs which does nothing more than 120 concerts can be used. I don't know the N5415 will be executed against this barrier. So whatever it is a disk of 120 Go up is ok and not better or worse than a smaller drive. Indeed, young readers tend to be older design, which means that they are running more hot and use more power.

  (ny bdy els gt 1?) Pavilion dv7-4269wm @ wbste thn hpastnt drvrs detects wch which 2 belive?

  Well, my method is basically loose drivers (except that is to download Windows Update) unless something no longer works. For example, if the sound stops working, you can download a new audio driver. I hope this helps.

• Qosmio F60 turning is not on - HARD drive problem

  My F60 running stock windows 7 and when I turn it on I get a black screen with the following text:

  + Check the file system on C: +.
  + the type of file system is NTFS.
  + Volume name is s3a5802d002 +.
  + One of your disks needs to be checked for conisitency. +
  + You can cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue.
  + To skip verification of the disc, press any key within 10 seconds.

  If I leave it just like that.
  I try to ignore it, and it does not work so I turn it off and go again on the third time, to turn on while I press ESC. What should I do about it?

  Re: do everything or send it as it is only 6 months old, it is Bernard did this for 5 months

  Hello

  It sounds a bit like a HARD drive problem.
  I recommend checking out the HARD drive using a free tool called Drive Fitness Test
  This free tool allows you to get more details on the State of the HARD drive and maybe some error would be detected which would mean that HARD drive failures and disk HARD must be replaced.

• Alternative to the reset by Satellite A660 for potential HARD drive problem

  In the last week or two, I got a few blue screens, saying he was driving demand, and that windows must be shut down to avoid damage my computer.

  I have just restart and continue working.
  The last time it happened, I had repeatedly "initialization failed" and it says hdd, SDS, fdd. If I pressed the power button until I didn't see no signs of activity, then started. Things went well. I called Toshiba support and they recommended that I go home and save my files before continuing. It took hours selectively to clean, sort the previous backups, and a small footprint of the backup system.

  When I called Toshiba once again, they recommended a "takeover", which is restoring the factory settings. It puts me in the stone age. I have to go through a never-ending process of the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, install and reconfigure all the applications and environments/configurations, etc. It will essentially take on holiday, if not more. I'll also have to get another computer (maybe a netbook) to stay in touch while I restart my laptop. It's barely more than a year.

  Is there a diagnosis I can do to determine the probability that there is a hard drive problem? Support for Toshiba said that is the surest way, because it provides a diagnostic F10 for the hard disk code, and it also pushes the bad sectors at the end of the disc (logically, I suppose, since you can't physically move a fault).

  > About Hitachi DFT, is it important that my HARD drive is Toshiba mk6465gsx? This is what is displayed "Hard drives" in the Device Manager.

  It s no matter what HARD drive manufacturer, it is the Drive Fitness Test is able to scan all hard drives to find errors.

  > Also, http://www.hitachigst.com/support/downloads/#DFTshows links to create boot disks, but I was wondering if I could create a bootable instead.

  Not sure if this is possible if there is that one option to create a startup disk, and then a flash stick does not work. But of course you can try this out.

  > This laptop does not come with a floppy drive, and I still create coasters trying to burn discs.
  You don't need the floppy drive, the tool must create a disk bootable (CD)

  > I guess that the same question can be asked on Memtest86. Another issue is the relevance of Memtest86 for my system. My c drive has a "Program Files" folder, but also a "Program Files (x 86)" folder for 32-bit applications. Memtest86 is for the x 86 architecture. I don't know if my 64-bit Windows 7 involves a non - x 86 architecture.

  I guess that Memtest86 should also work on Win 7 64 bit systems. But also the MemTest 4.20 is 64-bit capable
