  Hello

  I have already experienced some minor problems with my HP laptop, as crashes and freezes and error startup. Now, yesterday I came home vacation and discovered that my PC did "feel well" when I used it. Sound had been delayed and delayed, processes and programs froze frequently, including the Task Manager. I decided to just restart and went for a shower, half an hour later when I came back to my PC it was trying to close the session, without success. I used the power button to shut down physically, and when I tried to start it up, I was allowed to choose whether to start the PC normally or in "safe mode", as expected. I started normally and it has frozen on the 'Starting Windows' screen, the animation wouldn't even start.

  I waited several minutes for Windows to start and, eventually, windows cursor appeared on the screen, but it was obviously the wrong resolution (much bigger (and wider than what is proportional) and fuzzier than normal), then I got a blue background (However, this was not blue, it was like a wallpaper) and the come command prompt thingy indicating exactly what :

  ECHO MBRInst returned %ERRORLEVEL% > C:\system.sav\logs\MBRINST. JOURNAL

  I leave the PC for half an hour, and when nothing happened, except at the prompt closing itself, I rebooted, it the same way as last time. This time when start I had to choose between 'start Windows normally' and 'Start Startup Repair (recommended) '. I chose the option recommended and expected (because I used to get these before the crash too). But ultimately the same black screen and the enormous-too-big-cursor appeared, then he went blue and then the command line came, stating the same message as I wrote above.

  It is, essentially, as far as I got with the PC after the evening of yesterday and today. I also noticed wave, repetative sounds coming from inside the PC, looks like a frog, very very small is trapped inside. I tried the F8 menu at startup and chose to start in "safe mode" but there is no difference.

  I would be totally grateful for help, because it was a ~ $1400 spent and I got it for a few months...

  Thank you for reading

  Hello

  Error 303 would indicate a hard drive failure - this is also compatible with the freezing issues you describe leading up to this event.

  Your best option isto contact HP and arrange for the hard drive replaced under warranty.

  If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

• Blue screen error CANNOT ACCESS HARD DRIVE SPACE

  I'm trying to install windows xp after removing windows 8 of my computer and creat new partition using the boot disk windows 98se, fdisk, but the installation during windows startup I get in trouble when get a blue error message screen telling
  "YOUR COMPUTER'S STARTUP PROGRAM CANNOT ACCESS THE DISK THAT CONTAINS THE PARTITION FREE SPACE, YOU CHOOSE. CANNOT INSTALL WINDOWS XP ON THIS HARD DRIVE. »
  Image of the screen available message if necessary. There is no error due to this error code.
  Please help me to solve the problem, and I'll be really thankful to you.
  Kind regards

  First of all, you need not use a setup of Windows 98 to work partition disk before installing Windows XP, Setup of Windows XP has the tools to do this job.

  Windows XP Setup cannot see the hard drive as it doesn't have drivers for the SATA controller on board.  To install Windows XP you must go into the BIOS and put the hard drive in IDE mode you will need to integrate the SATA drivers in the XP installation CD, or you need to feed them to the Windows XP Installer with a floppy using the F6 method drive.

  Your new PC does support Windows XP, it has Windows XP drivers available for it?  If this isn't the case, you will have a lot of crying by train to get there.

• Windows 8 does not see the hard drive on the Satellite A200

  Windows 8 does not see the hard drive on the A200.
  How to install it?

  S strange Windows 8 should already contain the HARD drive controller driver to recognize the HARD drive during installation.
  The HARD drive is visible in the BIOS?

  Do you use the original disc from Microsoft of Windows 8?

• Get blue screen errors. My hard drive died?

  Original title: hard drive crash?

  Finally, my hard drive failed? A few months ago, I had a virus so I had to back up my entire hard drive on my Toshiba laptop. After I did this whenever I started it, I had to press F12 to load device of your choice. Then he said something on the hard drive failure 4, stuff like this press F1 to continue. I usually do and it runs slow but the other day I went through the process, and he came to load Windows XP then blue screened with c:0000218 (a registry file failure). I've tried safe mode, safe mode with command prompt last good known configuration and start normall. I always get blue screen and sends me in a boot loop. I tried also to insert the OS and restore CD that has not been loaded. Went through the process above.

  What do you have with regard to the virus out of your backup drive?

  How - to what support - did you back up your drive?

  Is a version of Norton antivirus or security program installed?

  When you use F12 to select boot device, what device were chosen to boot from?

  The message you have seen 'SMART failure provided on disk hard 4' followed by an identification of the drive?  What disk drive has been identified?

  What happened when you tried to use the CD "OS and recovery?  Please report any error completely, without paraphrasing.

  See the following tips from frequent poster Jose Ibarra:

  For those who STOP: c0000218 error, a chkdsk /r usually will fix you right up and then you will start normally once again, then it will be broken again with the same problem until you run chkdsk /r once again, so you have to work, do what you have to do when you get started - uninstall Norton completely and correctly.

  After the chkdsk/r, you will still be able to boot mode safe but as Norton components not load safe mode and rush through the file system when loading.  Then you can go on the WWW of Norton of the site and use their instructions to get rid of the beast to uninstall...

  Here are some instructions in order to at least run the Recovery Console:

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

• Satellite A215-S4757 blue screen & startup failure after HARD drive partitioning

  I just bought a Satellite A215-S4757 a week ago & I tried to divide my hard drive coz, I was only one partion (250 GB) using acronis disk director.

  After that I got the blue screen and now I failed to start and I tried all the options to repair my windows or load in SafeMode to no avail coz it crashes just from the window of microsoft corporation.

  I tried to reinstall windows vista with the cd but still does not!
  pls someone helo me :(

  Hello

  Creator of disc of Acronis does not for me but I know for sure that you can split the capacity of the HARD drive into two partitions with rendering recovery DVDs. Start your laptop with recovery DVDs and check the option to install it.

  You must have a mobile US model. I am from Europe and I don't know about you how it works with the recovery media in the United States, but it should be similar to the European and because of that it must be an option to divide the capacity of the HARD disk with two partitions.

  Please try again. It should work somehow.

• Blue screen of death, the Satellite M100

  Hello

  I have Satellite M100, we had problems with the blue screen of death sometimes and then it seemed fairly constant and the only way to ensure that the system is not plant was to start it in safe mode.

  The noise had also stopped working. Decided to restore the factory settings system used the disk and everything goes well until the system started in windows allows you to go through the installation program then blue screen again. The sound seems to have returned, although it is slightly crispy.
  So don't know if this is the problem or not. Unrecoverable system error crashes and also driver_irql_not_less_or_equal.

  Now cannot start in safe mode as the windows installation did not finish...

  Any ideas anyone?

  See you soon
  Simon

  Hello Simon

  If BSOD is displayed after the installation of recovery, it may be a serious physical issue.
  Try installing the OS using the recovery discs. If the problem persists I think it's time to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider.

• Blue screen of death, the PC toshiba laptop!

  Ive been doing blue screen of death, what happens is that when I start my laptop it goes to the windows loading screen and it doesn't go to the login screen. It automatically restarts and the same thing happens. The error is as follows:

  Stop: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0x8A9D4828, 0xC0000102, 0x00000000)
  Ive had 2 technicians and really I just have trouble according to them to solve the problem, sometimes I do not trust what they do and others, I have just 17 so I just try to be careful.
  Anyway, I've heard of what is called a CHKDSK with the windows disc and it would continue with a windows disc, Ive tried the windows disc and when I press R on my keyboard, it just says: can not find a hard drive.
  My priority here is now all of my files and solve the problem.

  If it supports booting from a flash drive, and you have one, put this on it then run it .

  0 x 00000024 can mean the hard disk is full error / corrupt / failing and should be replaced as well

• Blue screen of death, the Tecra M10 runing Win XP

  My Toshiba Tecra M10 works like a dream for three years without ever gasp

  Until the other day.

  My Toshiba laptop is constantly cycling with a BSoD - then I will start windows - it looks like it'll work - it gets in the paper password on screen - then a few blank screens - BSoD then again repeatedly

  I am running XP Pro SP 3

  I couldn't get my laptop to stop doing this, so I removed the battery and then the power cable and it started again and then when he went to BSoD I took a picture of the screen with my digicam fortunately I have one that focuses immediately and take the picture instantly too

  the ERROR is

  BAD_POOL_CALLER

  Tech Info

  STOP 0X000000C2 (0 X 00000043, 0XC38C0000, 0 X 00000000 0 00000000)

  I haven't changed anything on my PC recently and I have tried all the beginning of the top safe mode and last known good configuration but it still cycles round and round and round

  This laptop is not connected to anything and comes standard with a module of memory 2 MB in it to bog

  the last known good configuration does not either, nor did one of the other options in the "safe".

  So I slipped on the HARD drive and tried to boot from my XP CD - not the recovery of Toshiba, one that I have not tried this one in the laptop again.

  Rather unsurprisingly with no HARD drive in the laptop, I got a different error

  STOP 0X0000007B (0XF78D2524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)

  which is I believe the inaccessible boot device - I know, it cannot see the HARD drive because it is sitting on my desk but would wait to boot from the XP CD... ISN'T IT?

  I tried to set all the parameters by default both boot - no difference

  With the HARD drive in - the laptop boots as windows user enter screen with no problems but doesn't stop on this screen - after a few screens blank the BSoD comes up and off it goes again.

  In the advanced startup options, I changed auto-start on setting error so it does not loop forever. and this prevents loop to the start cycle... seems to be changing this setting is not a permanent change

  Then I went into the BIOS and under the mode of the SATA AHCI to IDE controller and the STOP error 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) is gone now and the pc will try to install Windows until I need to see the HARD drive and then gives up trying to install XP with a no. HHD error (the HHD is based of course on my desk) so it was a valid error expected...
  put the HARD return drive without changing the BIOS back makes it appear the STOP 0x000000C2 (0 x 00000043, 0xC38C0000, 0 x 00000000 0x00000000) error

  HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP please

  Hello

  I think you should test the HARD drive don't you agree?
  In my opinion, this should be the first part that should be checked since the new operating system installation was not possible

  I recommend the use of the tool called: HDD Drive Fitness Test. This software creates a bootable floppy to test. You can use this disk to run a test HARD drive without installation of any system.

  If the error would be detected: replace the HARD drive.
  If no error would be: use the Toshiba Recovery disk in order to install the system. (don t forget to put back the BIOS to default)

• Qosmio F30 - installation of Windows XP is not recongize the HARD drive

  Hi all, can you help me please?

  I had a virus on a download tried to get rid, but all not so tried to format the HARD drive and reload XP pro by putting in the disc and the loading, but find no hard drive after many attempts.

  So I removed the HARD drive and formatted on another pc handed over and tried again still no luck. So loaded XP Professional SP 1,2,3 to the HARD disk via the second pc normally looks good as that pc works ok in F30 it starts up windows black screen then goes to blue screen then reboots and starts again.

  I think something got into the BIOS I downloaded it from the support site, but it won't work. Nothing happens. I'm doing something wrong?
  It looks like you can only update the bios under Windows. I can't because I can't get in there, it says use F12 all I can use is F1

• XP is not start properly, important data files on the hard drive, location unknown such as e-mail addresses, individual emails and favorite links on Internet Explorer. The system is damaged irreparably, what is the solution?

  I need ideas to solve this problem.

  You can retrieve the data without being able to get into Windows. The methods described require a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself best, and if a better course of action would be to take the machine to a local professional with a good reputation instead. If you choose to do, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd, or copy it to an external hard drive. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the computer target with a Bart PE (XP only) or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu and retrieve the data in this way. This has the additional advantage to tell you if the problems you are experiencing are hardware or software related because if the computer behaves perfectly in Linux, you know that Windows (software) is the culprit. Conversely, if the computer behaves badly under Linux, you will know that there is a hardware problem. This is general information on the use of Knoppix for the recovery of data when you do not have Windows:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with enough capacity to contain your data OR an external USB hard drive. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD *. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

  * If your computer has only an optical drive and you want to use this drive to burn data or need to test drive, you can create a USB bootable Linux instead of a bootable CD. This site will show you how to do it- http://www.pendrivelinux.com

• Qosmio F30 - 112 - Windows XP does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hello.

  I have a Qosmio F30-112.
  I tried to install the Windows XP Professional instead of the Media Center edition.
  However, during the execution of the installer, my laptop does not recognize the hard drive. Therefore, the installation cannot continue.

  I thought it might be a problem of corruption with my laptop and reinstalled Media Center Edition successfully.
  But when I try to install XP Professional it always gives me the same error.

  Suggestions for the configuration of the BIOS or solutions for why this is happening?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Just a question:
  You are looking for in this forum for other similar issues with regard to the installation of Win XP and lack HARD drive? I doubt

  The fact is that your notebook has a SATA controller and you need a SATA (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) driver.

  You should have a look here in this doc from Toshiba:
  [How to integrate a SATA AHCI driver into a Windows XP installation CD | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB85017Z0000R01.htm]

  Hi Joshua6495,

  What is the full error message that you receive?

  See the article below, which deals with a similar question

  During installation, you are unable to format a Partition with a file Allocation Table Format

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/301340/

  You can use the Windows XP installation disc as many times as you want on the same computer

  Note: All programs on the computer and the data will be lost if you format the hard drive. It is recommended to make a backup of your data before performing any Installation of Windows.

• I can't access my external hard drive with windows 7. How can I get my music out of her files? My pc with xp operating system can access it without problem. but my new pc with windows 7 does not see the hard drive.

  I bought a new pc to replace my old hp 14 months as the motherboard fried in. I bought a case of disk external hard to rocketfish to put the hard drive of my Windows 7 pc in. burned does not see the hard drive. my old pc with xp can access all the items on the external hard drive.

  Check that the drive appears in Device Manager.

  If so, go to disk management and assign a drive letter.
