I ran the diagnostic on the hard drive.

    I bought a whole new office 27 "Mac provided with Adobe CS6. Everything worked like a charm until the 1 TB hard drive, developed a bad sector and the Apple Store reinstalled a new I had extended warranty with them. They are recycled the disc immediately (like crazy, I don't ask for this return to get the data off it.) But fortunately, I have all my data on CrashPlan.

    Yes, you can reinstall Windows 7 OEM System Builder License on the new hard drive with the new processor.

    It will not be a problem in this case, since you don't "move" installation, you are doing a new installation. The less it will take is activation of the phone, as you change the hard drive:

  • NMH300 and hard drives with 4 KB sectors size

    Hello

    Does anyone know if the NMH300 supports hard drives with 4 KB sectors or only 512 b size?
    If Yes, how HDs with 4 k sectors perform?

    I know: XP do not really like the HDs with sector size 4 k. W7 has no problem.

    Thank you for your comments.

    No, it won't work because new hard with 4 k sector disks require new chips of controller hard drive to be recognized. To be sure check just the NMH series hardware tested list .

  • HP Envy M6: My HARD drive is not bad on my computer? I have reloaded Win 8 and upgraded to Win 8.1 but he keeps crashing

    Hi need help and answers from an expert!

    My HP Envy M6 Recenly has stopped working correctly, so I decided to recover as soon as possible.  She still had the same problems, so I decided to restore factory with recovery USB flash drive I did.  Always had the same problem happens after I rebooted 8 Win and improved to 8.1.  It would work for a few minutes and stop working I used chkdsk and it says it fixed a few problems with the drive.

    I went through the same steps another 3 times!  After each time that once I had that he would be running again after a clean reinstall.  I would like to run chkdsk and it looks like he fixed some error, but last time, it wouldn't or couldn't find some files to run and crashed.  I tried loading Acronis and tried to reinstall the backup from there but that also failed to correct the problem.  I came to the conclusion that my HD is physically wrong?

    I guess the recovery process would reformat the partitions before you reinstall so it's not a logic error (software)?  From the recovery partition, the recovery Flash disk media and recovery software acronis can fix this, I can only assume, there is a problem with the drive itself?

    Is there a way to check this?  I don't mind replacing the drive to a SSD, so this isn't a problem, but I can't seem to find a product key.  Nothing printed on the bottom.  I read somewhere that it is now integrated with the motherboard bios so can I just use the recovery media that I did on a flash drive?

    Also, I have my backup file but I could never find the location of the image my wife loaded as the photo of "lock" screen which I do not have a copy of.  I have the backup files for windows 8.1 by Acronis and according to me, a Windows backup file on a backup drive, but I was wondering if these "locked screen hidden image" would be held somewhere in these data?  It is not under the images and I have never been able to find or understand where windows keeps this image.  I used the search without success.

    Of course, this is not critical, but I hate losing this particular image.  I hope it's keep somewhere in my back upward and when restoring with a new drive hard I can reload the backup and restore.

    So I really ned knowledge step by step: my HD is bad?  How can I check without having to spend hours to reload only to fail?

    Why chkdisk does not?  Or should I simply replace HD and if so what can I use the new disk recovery media and product ID will be accessible through the motherboard?

    I intend to upgrade to win 10, but I need Win 8 loading first, then move to 8.1 then move to Win 10?  Also in the future if it crashes how can I recover to win 10? Since it is free now but will not be later.  The upgrade will allow me to make a copy (a copy) to win 10?

    A lot of questions, but please provide the fastest solution to my problems and concerns.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello fmhawaii ;

    I read your post on your PC crashing and wanted to help.

    It certainly seems that your hard drive has failed.  Some PC allows the drive to check in the BIOS: test a hard drive in the BIOS. HP® customer support

    If that confirms that the disc is bad, then you will need to replace it.

    As for activation, you are right in that, with Win8x machines, the product key is embedded in the motherboard UEFI firmware, however, the instructions in this link, show you how to recover: find product - key for Windows 8

    When you restore from recovery media, which is supposed to automatically read product key, so you will not have to enter something to activate reinstall it.  My guess is that the drive problems that prevented from happening.

    Acronis allows you to mount an image file by using a drive letter, and once you do this, you should then be able to browse through the content to find the file you want.  However, depending on what part of the logon icon changed, it might be embedded image in a Windows system file, and unless there is a separate copy of this image, it will be very difficult to recover.  IF you Google it, you might be able to find downloadable tools for disassembly of this file and subseuent extraction of this file.

    I wouldn't hurry to Win10, but if you choose to follow this path, don't forget to make a new advance Acronis backup, then you can return to a system of Win8x of work if something is wrong - as the Win10 GoBack function is known to be unreliable.

    Good luck

  • Update 24GB flash Cache hard drive for some other SSD acceleration

    Hello Experts,

    I plan to buy-

    HP ENVY 15 t-j100 Quad Edition Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR)

    -With

    • 1 TB 5400 RPM hard drive
    • 24GB flash acceleration Cache hard drive

    What can I upgrade (/replace) 24GB flash Cache acceleration of the drive with some other SSD whose greater storage size on the line after a few days? for example 240GB Crucial SSD?

    Thank you.

    It's different. Any other animal. It looks like a wireless card. See below. What you could do with a standard 2.5-inch SSD is to replace the original main drive. If you could total of 240 concerts that would be OK. You will need to remove the disc from mSATA (aka WSSD) as it is useless in a WSSD Accelerator reader when you have a main SSD drive. I guess that I encourage you to wait and see how you like the stock configuration. The WSSD throttle control is very effective and can make even a 5400 RPM hard drive mechanics work almost as fast as an SSD.

  • Several error messages... HARD drive may be bad?

    I'll try to do this as no confused as possible.  Almost a week ago, I had a .sys file go bad on my Vista pc.  Re-installed windows.  Today, I was in the middle of a game and it crashed gives me a blue screen with an error of paging file and perhaps said a driver of command was bad (I don't take to take a break and read entirely at the time).  Reboot the pc and it says windows does not start.  Restart using the disc repair system, ran, and he informed me that he fixed something in the hard drive and run the control disc.  It started but I tried to click on all programs informed me that a device was bad.  So I put it to run chkdsk when it restarted, and he says that he was unable to open the drive.  Now whenever I reboot I get a blue screen or error message different each time that involve a driver or a bad camera.  OK fine I'll just reinstall windows again and format the HDD.  After several attempts, I finally get to start the installation of windows and mid install, I got a blue screen with error PFN_LIST_CORRUPT.  Should I throw in the towel and recognize that the drive is bad?  All except one error messages involve bad drivers or external devices, but I have no device, except the keyboard and mouse attached.  Maybe potential virus?   It crashes when I try to enter the BIOS, almost forgot to mention that.

    If you want to get to the bottom of the problem, you go through stages of diagnosis, eliminating what it cannot be. The logic to do first are those that don't cost you money by, for example, to buy a new hard drive.

    If you ran the diagnostic memory microsoft from a bootable CD or floppy, and then get the best test to use the T option and test each stick individually.

    If you have another hard drive that you can use then it would also be proper diagnosis to try it to see what happened. Can put you the suspect drive in another PC, download and run the diagnostic disk from the manufacturer in this regard?

    If not all get too much for you then I suggest take the PC to a local repair shop, ideally one that you can get a recommendation on.

    I can't pass comment on your experience Ubuntu except to say that if it is a hardware error it will not go away, simply because you are using Ubuntu.

  • I want to copy all my jpg files to another directory (a portable hard drive) with some of the same names of JPGs, but not necessarily all. What will happen? The word 'COPY', will be some of the deleted files be added or nothing at all.

    I have a LOT of pictures in my computer (over a thousand) and I want to put them on a portable hard drive, I bought (1 terabyte) but I won't write any of the names of existing files with different images. IS THIS POSSIBLE? Do I need software or special hardware? I tried the copy/paste standard as well as move files to the new directory, but it seems that I can lose files. I'm not sure if the files that are missing (or lack, in my opinion) are not copied. When I finished emptying the directory, it shows that it is empty but the new directory does not seem to have any additional files that should be there based on the counting of the files before and after.

    Thanks for any help you can provide, Bill

    1: right-click and then drag the pix on the external drive. Release the right mouse button and choose copy here. They are there?  Now remove it from the computer.

    2: you can see pix of the same name overwrite each other, or be done with (1), (2), etc.. But even in this case, they will be interspersed with the former. If keep you them in separate folders with different names, that should not happen. Personally, I rename all the pix before storing them. You can select the set instead of the code of the camera and a group, rename the first holiday 2009 yo and the rest will be renamed holiday 2009 and each havf will one (1), (2), (3), after them.

    It is also a nice freeware tool which, among other things, can rename a group of photos easily.

  • I am trying to access my hard drive for some records and my file photo in windows vista after it has been formatted.

    My laptop after runing battery accident, I cannot restore and re-installed was the only solution, I thought I had backup all files, but my photo files is missing and an other files that were in my office. I need assistance to access the hard drive if possible, I said it can be done.

    If you formatted the drive and reinstalled Vista, data is almost certainly lost to conventional methods of recovery...

    You can try this program:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/Recuva.html

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.

    If the above does not resolve the problem, you will need to contact the Date recovery Experts.
