HP pavilion dv7 7020ec: my laptop is unable to create or find a new system partition

Hello community HP,

my laptop HP pavilion dv7 7020ec recently had serious problems, so I decided to reinstall.

"After hours of trying, I got stuck at the point, where I chose the drive to install the operating system, bu ' t it is said that"he could not create or find partition disk ". Also it is said that " it may doesn´t support the launch, so I should check BIOS for the disk controller "(translating from Czech). "»

I would be grateful for any answer, because I feel tired after trying to follow the many guides of the forums.

    It ran fine for another five minutes and did the same thing.

    The behavior looks like an overheating problem.

  • Install Windows Xp on the Pavilion dv7 - 1147ca, no audio drivers. How can I find them?

    Recently, I've killed my Pavilion dv7 - 1147 Vista ca for the edition of office Xp Pro. I could find the drivers for pretty much everything, but I can't work in my audio drivers. I looked around, but really can't find anything on my product, in terms of troubleshooting. I don't really know what that you guys need information, so ask and I can get it for you.

    Problem solved. for someone else who has the problem, as soon as you install the MS UAA, it allows to detect certain hardware. Instead of having it go online to find the drivers, tell it to search in a specific directory on your computer. Even if you have the window "select a directory" open, run the sp45044 driver. The installation program will fail, but it puts the driver on your computer. return to the window "select a directory" and have it searching for C:\SWSetup\SP45044\WDM\WinXP. It now allows to install your drivers and audio will start to work immediately!

    Thanks for the help of Paul

  • Pavilion dv7-7064ea: Hard laptop computer reset deleted OS

    Hi all

    Yesterday I tried to use my laptop, how it froze and I had to force him to stop. After several vain attempts to put it on again, it gave me the error message that it held no boot device.

    Research on the HP site, I saw that they recommend a hard reset, which I did. However, now when I turn on the laptop he asks me to install an operating system.

    I have a repair disc, but I have no image system for my own laptop that I can use for the restoration (I backed up my files). I tried to use my brother's laptop system image (we have the same model), but my laptop it would not recognize external hard disk on which it is registered.

    Does anyone know how I could get my OS back without buying a new installation disc?

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Additional info in the case, it is relevant:

    Hello

    So you have a backup of your personal data, I wouldn't worry about retaining the existing partitions and just convert the reader into a guid partition table - recovery won't work anyway after a clean install, system will be replaced by efi and HP_TOOLS can only be downloaded again.

    If the existing HARD disk has a mbr partition style, you can convert this to a table of partition guid (gpt) as follows.

    Open an command prompt- Option 1

    Enter the following information, hit return after each entry.

    DiskPart

    list disk

    Assuming that there is only 1 HDD installed then enter

    Select disk 0

    clean

    convert a GPT

    When did the type exit and press to enter.

    Re-run the installation of Windows 10.

    Kind regards

I got as maybe he done a refresh and I did not notice then it happens again and again once at different days, but not every day so on until yesterday it stopped 4 times and I noticed he ussually did when there was a programm treatment much and temperatures exceeding 45 degrees.  I have an AMD turion procesor dualx2.

    Original HP hard drive was a x64bits but the new is a 32 bit and has a 2.2 GHz just in case an SMbios 2.4.

    I check the fan. The small place it blows cool air and more to the screen one blows hot air. the sound only wjen I open a program of many processes like autocad or turns on the machine. I notice also before when to stop he did done gently, but now it is a 'plop' sound and is disabled.

    Laptop: Hp pavilion dv7 4053 entertainment laptop with Windows 7 64 bit

    Yesterday the system became very slow, with apps crashing and suddenly had the white screen with an arrow and couldn't go anywhere. Raised the problem in the forum and followed the suggestion to unplug it, remove the battery pack.  I did it last night and after replacement laptop computer started ok.  Could do some emails and Microsoft apps (Word, picture it 9) successfully.

    Today, while I have access to the internet, Google search, g-mail, google calendar are all suspended, with an error message like "" Google chrome is unresponsive. "."  I also tried to use Adobe Acrobat Pro X to combine pdf files 4. When I tried to select several files, it hung and finally said "Adobe... is not responding." Then I tried selecting the files one at a time; He leaves me and view all documents in a single document; However, when I tried to save the document to the combine, hooked up with the same error. I tried Firebox and got the same error.

    I am running a scan with my ESET NOD32 Antivirus software. He finished my C drive and is in half way through my backup disk.  He said he found 5 infiltration - since it is not done yet, I don't know what the next step will be when the scan it ended.

    I was unable to find guaranteed compatible expansion modules appear to be available to Kingston or Corsair.

    Guaranteed compatible using modules in a major memory manufacturer upgrade is the way to go if you want no surprises when you plug new modules. Do not add the new memory module that is already there. Remove the original memory unless you can locate a module that is identical in every respect to be placed in the empty soDIMM slot. You don't have to try to match the specifications of the module of the computer laptop memory published unless you like surprises.

  • Pavilion dv7 - 1243cl: Questions of compensation for the motherboard component

    I have the following related material two 2 for hp experts, and both issues are with respect to the same JBK00 - 4091 P Rev 1 a motherboard, which is installed in a computer hp Pavilion dv7 - 1243 cl laptop:

    Below, I've included a picture that relates to both of my questions.

    QUESTION #1: I accidentally lost a resistance in repair motherboard of my friend. None of the experts know the ohm value of resistance R610?

    As you can probably tell from the image, below, I accidentally ripped out all the pads of twelve 12 pins on the motherboard for FFC connector JP36 (pictured below), so I have to fill each of the connections with wire 30AWG pin connector FFC (JP36). That said, I have been unable to trace the pin #10 connector FFC to any component on the motherboard, so my last question is the following:

    QUESTION #2: Regarding the twelve 12-pin FFC connector as shown in the image below (component no. PCB: JP36), which component pin #10 connects to the motherboard?

    Any help would be DEEPLY appreciated!

    I thought about it, so I thought I'd post the answer just in case someone else has the same problem in the future.
