HP Pavilion s5715: replace the internal hard drive and windows 7 & OEM

Hello world.

I use a PC HP Pavilion Desktop s5715 with windows 7 Home premium x 64. The internal hard drive is a Seagate (ST1000528AS SATA/300 7200 RPM). I recently received messages when windows starts by saying that "the hard drive failure, is imminent. Check the disk with CrystalDiskInfo told me he had a problem with the reallocated sectors count & number of events of reallocation (with the values 1, 1, 36).

So now, I want to replace this with a Western Digital Black 1 TB internal drive, and I want to have Windows 7 onto the new drive. I had 3 HP recovery disks (burned on DVDs). I also had a D drive that says "HP_Recovery.

1. can I replace the Seagate SATA/300 with a WD SATA/600?

2. my HP Pavilion s5715 does support the new internal hard drive?

3. how to install windows 7 on a new hard drive? Can I use the HP recovery discs? Some forum posts on the internet say something OEM Windows 7; I have no idea what it is and if I got it. Or should I use a program like Acronis to clone my hard drive to the new? What should do? Thank you

    Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.

  • has had to replace the internal hard drive! need help!

    Hi, laptop HP HDX - 1056CA

    My internal hard drive is totally dead after 2 years (warranty expired), and I had to replace it. I dropped in the new hard drive. But I don't know what are my next steps

    Do I really need to refer to the recovery discs - and they will work on a new hard drive? -I don't mind send away if that's what is needed, but I can't recover my old data, I hope that I can just download the drivers and leave with the machine... (also I go to work on Monday for 2 weeks at an oil rig, records will not be here in time and I won't be able to stay in touch with my friends and my family like the network is very limited as to what we can access if the computers in the Organization).

    can I use my desk top of the page to download and burn the recovery discs? can someone link me to the right place (HP HDX16 - 1056CA).

    My other question is that I have upgraded to windows 7 from Vista, when I ask to do recovery disks I have ask for the vista version and upgrade again (will be microsoft / the computer accepts the only time only upgrading key again?)  or should I go for the version of windows 7?  I need to re install the windows original vista and then switch again to win7, being that the computer has been configured for vista before the upgrade.

    Thank you very much for any help or insight people can give me! I really appreciate it!

    Hi all

    I had a BBQ and three guests oil and gas software and refused to feed them until thelaptop has been fixed.

    They threw the XP disc across the room and were able to start the player directly at the exit of the disk upgrade of windows 7 using the Custom Installation option.

    I'm afraid I can't give you more information, others that there is no need to first load the XP or the use of the USB box with the zip file in in order to recognize that the new installation drive.

    I have a desktop pc with 2 internal hard drives.  A hard drive has the BONE and the second hard disk is a separate partition.  (I do not combine hard drives using RAID.)  If I upgrade Vista to Windows 7, the upgrade will be to reformat hard disks or just a hard drive with the operating system?  Should I remove the second hard disk of the computer just to be sure?  The second hard drive must be reformatted for use with Windows 7?

    Thank you.

    You must install the upgrade in the Vista operating system.

  • Replaced the portable hard drive, and I can't delete the EISA partition on original disk (which I want to reuse)

    I use a laptop 17 inch set that has two slots for drives 2.5 inch/9.5 mm, but it only came with a hard drive (in the primary).  I recently bought a 160 GB SSD and installed in the main Bay, by completely removing the original hard drive.  I installed Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit on my new SSD using my OEM Vista disc (as well as all pilots, maintenance SSD utility provided by its manufacturer, etc.), and it works beautifully.

    The secondary hard drive Bay was still empty, so I put my original hard drive (conventional spinning drives) return in this Bay. It was immediately found my BIOS and Windows, so I cut and pasted all the valuable data on my SSD (it is not many).  Then I deleted the main partition, for the purpose of releasing the entire disk for stuff like the music.

    Much to my dismay, the snap disk management in the utility included in Windows Vista computer management doesn't let me delete the EISA partition on my old hard drive. When I right click on the Visual representation of the partition, the only option I get is 'Help', 'Remove' or other useful functions (who did not appear for the main partition, and I was able to delete).

    I need the EISA partition because A) is not yet on my boot drive and B) I have all my original OEM recovery disks, and they are in excellent condition.

    If someone could tell me how I could delete the EISA partition on a hard drive formerly-primary but secondary now 111GB laptop to recover the last 9 GB for use by the illustrious Mozart and Tchaikovsky, I would be very grateful.

    I expect there to be a way to do this in Windows, I don't know, that's why I post here, but if not, I am willing to find and download an ISO to burn a disk Knoppix to start Linux temporarily just to delete the EISA partition (well I would really prefer not to do it for various reasons).

    I ended up downloading a free disk partitioning softpedia.com hard tool and he was able to delete the EISA partition without problem.  I then uninstalled the free tool I had just downloaded (honestly, I don't even remember the name of the program, but it was not hard to find in the list of hard disk utilities Softpedia search), and then used the disk management snap-in in the computer management utility to format the disk, which now has my music on it.

    I started this thread when I thought I was out of options, to quickly realize that some kind of solution could be obtained by downloading something from Softpedia, which was true.

    My apologies for taking up forum, but I hope someone in a similar situation finds this useful thread.

    Thank you very much!

  • How to install the new hard drive and windows key?

    Hello

    I have a aspire v5-121-c72g32nkk.
    I have just updated to Windows 10, don't panic, but I want to upgrade my HD drive to a SSD drive.

    You can find the steps to do this?
    Windows was preinstalled, how I reinstall on another drive?
    I have no serial key or whatever it is.
    I'm a bit lost, you have an idea?

    Best,

    There are several ways to do this, anyone have product keys, since

    If you want to do a clean install:

    Windows 7-8 - 8.1 keys are embeeded on your BIOS

    Windows 10 use a generic key during the upgrade, so just skip the steps questions about a product key and the first time you connect on the web, it will authenticate to.

    You must decide:

    (1) do a clean install of your operating system to factory

    (2) make a disk - image of the system image and reload

    (3) to do a clean install of windows 10

    option 2 is the fastest at the end, as you create a copy of your HARD drive and reload it to your PC.

    you need a bootable windows 10 (USB or DVD) media and little space on external HARD drive.

    for the readers of plateau...

    You can use any 2.5 ", height 9.5 mm SATA drive. I got one for hitachi travelstars (now owned by western digital), which were originally ibm. others have all also good luck with (and loyalty towards) other brands. Choose your ability, the speed, the size of the cache, etc. of many online merchants have a good selection.

    for SSDS.

    same features as physical size above. you will need to do research in reliability, chip controller oddities, etc., but they get a lot more reliable. they need it another type of disaster recovery plan, however, as failure means no data is salvageable I heard. with top readers, depending on the type of failure, some recovery is generally possible without resorting to expensive professional services.

    for both types of readers, you should be able to use disks of 7 mm of height also long as you install the drive in the case of existing drive and use rubber track. This maintains alignment connector with the drive Bay.

  • REPLACING THE INTERNAL HARD DRIVE.

    Hello

    I have a laptop ACER Aspire V3 - 771G - 53234G 75 can.

    Some time ago, I added a Crucial M500 (120 GB SATA 6 GB/s - 2.5 ") SSD internal next to drive HARD WD Blue (750 GB SATA 6 GB/s - 2.5"-5400 RPM) for the operating system (Windows 8.1) and other software. Works very well.

    Is it a good idea to replace the HARD drive with my documents, photos, etc. by another drive HARD internal with a higher rotation speed now, or which is better (?), by another internal drive flash SSD (and if so, can recommend me?)?

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    Best regards.

    I like the Crucial MX100, MX200, Samsung 850EVO, Samsung 850 Pro, Kingston Hyperx Savage, Hyperx 3 K.

    These are all great SSDs.Try Amazon (free shipping) and Newegg.

  • No Internet after the new hard drive and Windows 7 Clean reinstall

    I have a Dell Studio XPS 9100 I bought in 2011.

    The Seagate Barracuda SATA 1 TB hard drive died, and I replaced it with a Seagate Barracuda 2 TB drive. The re - install Windows 7 went ok, but I couldn't connect to the net.

    A ran the device driver and got errors on the network card and the RAID.

    I went on the site of Dell for the 9100 and installed the drivers for the adapter and the RAID.

    No luck. I always get the error "no card" as well as the error 'no cable not connected.

    I read a lot of posts about this problem and am stuck.

  • Install the operating system after replacing the corrupted hard drive Asus q500a

    The hard drive on my Asus Q500a is bad (he had checked the repairman). They told me that I could replace it (it will just keep failing until at last it dies just) but I have to re - install the operating system. The laptop comes with Windows 7 and I upgraded to 8 when it came out (I think). I don't have a recovery disk.

  • the internal HARD drive has been corrupted and I fails to make the back upward. need information.

    I've owned an HP Pavilion dm1-LQ862PA #UUF, used to be windows 7-64 bit. the internal hard drive has been corrupted and recommended to replace another. they were asking for the backup cd and I failed to do, and I do not regret it. Well, except to lose all my files and programs that I installed, it will also include bluetooth, wi - fi and other important built in programs? I'm not a computer expert. If ever these important programs had totally disappeared, how retrieve it? my laptop in an HP authorized service center will be probably expensive and I decided to buy a new HARD drive and ask someone to put it in and install a new OS. Please help thanks

    Hello:

    There is a support for your PC page where all the software drivers to run the hardware on your PC such as bluetooth and wireless can be reinstalled.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/WC/product?product=5079502 & CC = US & DLC = in & LC = on & query = LQ862PA & Tool=.

    What I don't see is the availability of recovery disks to reinstall the operating system (windows 7 64-bit) or your PC programs (other than those listed in the link of support above).

    This means that if you want to replace the hard drive, you must make your own W7 64-bit installation media and use the 7 product key of Microsoft windows on the bottom of your PC to activate the installation.

    That assumes you can read all 25 characters of the product key windows 7.

    Here's how...

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

    The replacement hard drive should be a 320 GB SATA II 5 400 rpm Disk If you want the same specification provided with your PC hard drive.

    Please refer to Chapter 4 of the service manual on the link below for the procedures for removal and replacement of the hard disk.

  • PC tries to boot from external USB instead of the internal hard drive at startup

    Hi, I just took delivery of a refurbished Pavilion p6793. I noticed that the system does not boot if I have my external USB drive connected. It happens with one cannot find the message of charger and asks me to hit ctrl-alt-del to restart. I suspect it's because it's the search for the o/s on USB instead of the internal hard drive. Can you tell me what I need to check and change to allow me to boot from the hard drive even if the drive is connected. Thank you.

    Hello:

    You should probably go into your BIOS by pressing F10 at HP welcome screen and changing the options in the start for the HDD menu start the first.

    Then you can set the boot for other devices as you order please.

    Make sure that you save your settings, where you made the change, and again when you go out.

    When you specifically want to start on a device, press the F9 key to the HP welcome screen and you will be presented with a single boot options menu where you can choose from any one of the bootable devices listed.
