• Inspiron One 2320 A10 BIOS update is blocked

  I'm trying to update the BIOS on my Inspiron One 2320 after replacing the hard drive. It worked fine except the fan was running full speed constantly, even after a boot after being closed overnight - so no question of real heat. Advance Google search for BIOS update being a solution to the problem of fan went wild.

  So...

  I put the file A10.exe on a bootable USB key, rebooted and ran the file. Everything was going well until I came to this screen:

  =============================

  ITE Flash Utility Version: 1.0

  Device ID; 7f9d20ff
  Seller of SPI; Chingis

  Block number: 0

  Eraseing--erase OK

  Erase check--check OK

  Programming--programming OK

  Check--check OK

  [blinking cursor]

  =============================

  And it's been sitting here just like that for a few hours now. I'm afraid to do something or to restart. I am wayyyy out of warranty, so I'm on my own.

  Help?

  You could try erasing BIOS by removing the battery motherboard button and press / hold the power button for about 30 seconds before reinstalling the battery. Check the Manual and follow the instructions carefully to remove/install the battery.

  If the battery is more of ~ 2-3 years old, this could be a good idea to install a new, so you don't have to replace it again, at least not for a long time (er).

  Are how far out of warranty you? If I remember correctly, Dell had a policy to replace a motherboard - once and only once - if it doesn't have a BIOS update within six months of the end of the warranty. Do not know if that still stands...

  So if does not help clear BIOS by pulling on the battery, you can contact Support to see if this policy is always available.

• A100 replacement hard drive

  I saw the other posts on this but no definitive answer.
  My HARD drive is dying and needs to be replaced. I see the posotion from the LHS is under the Palm drive and there seems to be one removable flap - other posts say there is only one screw to remove, but there is no visible screws under the machine.

  I've changed hard disks on other Toshibas with absolutetly no problem - someone at - it ideas?

  Hello

  Replace HARD drive on this laptop is not simply the procedure. I'm not 100% sure, but the entire Palm rest/Touchpad should be removed first. HARD drive cover is fixed with a screw, but you'll see him only if the Palm is deleted.

  When this screw is removed, hold the HARD drive tab and pull the HARD drive bracket. Next step is to detach the HARD drive from the HARD drive support.
  The device is quite new and first of all, check if the warranty is still valid.

• replacement hard drive and using recovery discs made by myself.

  HPdv6 mobile 2119tx. After replacing hard drive and loading the recovery discs (which I did) successfully, now it reboot something messages cannot locate the disc or load bootable disc (sorry, don't remember the exact wording, but back to the beginning). Could this be because I replaced a 650 GB drive with a 500 GB drive.

  Hello:

  Normally you cannot use recovery on a smaller hard disks.

  But you should be able to boot from the first disc of recovery at least and see what happens.

  To do this, you must have the first disc in your dvd player.

  Restart the PC and at the beginning of your homescreen HP, tap key ESC then choose one time start in the menu.  Since then, select the DVD drive and continue.

  If the ESC key method does not work, press the F9 key instead.

  It depends on the type of BIOS in your PC (normally according to his age) which key you need to type.

• Dv6-7202se replacement HARD drive

  Hi, I want to buy a replacement for my DV6-7202se HARD drive. originally, I have a 1 TB running at 5400 RPM SATA HARD drive. I am running Windows 8.1.

  My laptop is now out of its original 1 year warranty.

  (1) is it possible for me to go to a larger, faster HARD drive?

  (2) my laptop was purchased in the UNITED Arab Emirates. Where can I find the replacement HARD drive here?

  (3) my current HARD drive has a number of specific product? The official site of HP can't give me that and continues to throw messages 'no information found.

  (4) where will I get the recovery disks to reinstall the operating system on it? He came originally with Windows 8, I upgraded to 8.1.

  Thank you!

  You can certainly get a faster drive, but I think that the biggest readers available now 1.5 TB laptop and they all work at 5400 RPM. Here is your Service Manual:

  Manual

  One option you have is to install an accelerator reader WSSD/mSATA cache to speed up the slower drive. The problem on your model, it is very difficult to get to the slot of the WSSD. It is not in the Bay of accessible customer service.

  To speed up the system even more, you can install an SSD expand instead of the ordinary reader, but the largest SSD drive is a 1 to.

  Where you can get all this material in the UAE, I have no idea. I guess you can get things shipped from Europe, Asia and the United States

  In regards to the operating system, unless it does not turn right you can clone (copy bit for little) the old drive and transfer the image to the new, or we can get you a link to download an image of disk for Windows 8, which can be installed on any hard drive. The License Code is embedded in the BIOS of your motherboard, so you just need to install it and Windows will activate automatically.

  Post back if one of these options looks interesting and we can assist in its application.

• Cannot install Windows 8 on the replacement hard drive

  I got the replacement from Dell hard drive which he said would come with Windows 8 and pre-installed drivers. Well, I installed the hard drive and he said no. OS can be found. I didn't have a chance to make my own backup discs, but Dell sent a CD Windows 8 recovery media with the laptop and now with the replacement hard drive.

  When you try to install Windows 8 on the new hard drive, I get to the part where it tells me to choose a partition to install Windows 8 on and none of them will not let me. There are 5 to choose from and I don't know what to do to get past this. The largest partition either 5A about 934 GB of space left out of 1 TB, but as I said I can't choose it or one of the other ones for the installation.

  You just have to click on next, in any case, despite the message?  Otherwise:

  Start on the DVD of Windows 8, instead of install now, click repair your computer, Advanced Options, invites ... when it opens, type the following:

  DiskPart
  Select disk 0
  clean

  Then, try to install.

  The above will remove all the data partition and disk, allowing you to do a clean install on an empty drive (these scores are not required, and Windows will create its own partitions (two) he needs to install and run).

• Error "Cannot read disc" after nc4200 replacement hard drive

  Hi all

  I read through the postings but did not see an exact match for the issue I'm having.

  My 5 year old needed nc4200 finally a replacement hard drive.  I bought a new 120 GB ATA-6 WD Scorpio Blue 40 GB ATA-7 Toshiba plant.  I was able to clean up a few errors on the old disk and the Partition Magic 8.0 successfully used to copy all the data in a single primary partition on the new 120 GB drive using all available space.

  I started with success the drive on the Windows desktop using a separate post of full PC.  When I inserted the new, WD drive in my nc4200 however I got an error "cannot read disc" immediately after the MESSAGE.  The BIOS is a short wee on tests of diagnostic and other information on the hard drive, but I ran with success a test drive in the menu of the BIOS with the net results.

  I have advanced and updated the BIOS to version F.0F thinking there may be some 1024 cylinders deliver or other incompatibility big disk, but this new version also shows the error of reading.  At this point, I'm stumped.  Why this new boot in my desktop PC drive but fail in my nc4200?  What do I have to use some tools HP blessed to make this readable disk?

  Thanks in advance!

  Well, I guess you can call this one resolved.  I sent the WD Scorpio Blue 120 GB drive (model WD1200BEVE) and ordered a WD Scorpio Blue 80 GB (model WD800BEVE) instead.  I cloned my old Toshiba 50 GB 5400 RPM (model MK6026GAX) with Acronis True Image WD Edition.  I installed the new drive in my nc4200 and pulled upward on the first try!

  I'm still not sure why the 120 GB didn't work.  The only thing I noticed is that the done 120 GB one noise rattling and the 80 GB is not then maybe the drive was defective.  I'll never know however, if it was the drive or the size of the drive, that was the question, but I hope that this info will be useful to someone else looking to exchange a HD of aging in a nc4200.

• cannot use the webcam or play dvd Windows Inspiron ONE 2320 8.1

  Hello.

  When I open My Webcam Central on my Inspiron One 2320, I get a nice message on the right hand bottom corner 'not supported Webcam. Hmmmmm. When I try to play a DVD, no luck.

  I use Windows 8.1

  In the section DVD, States of CD-ROM/DVD-ROM HL - DT ST DVDRWBDCT40 N does not properly. When I right click to update him pilot-still no worky.

  Thank you for your help!

  The webcam is already installed. Central webcam is software and is also already installed. Look at the illustrations in the Quick Start Guide in the list of books below and see that the camera is located on the bezel at the top of the screen has a cover and light. Remove the cover to see if that helps. If you're still having problems, go to this site to help support more-

• NB100 - replacing hard drive

  How to replace hard drive Toshiba NB100

  Can someone help me?

  TY

  Sergio

  Post edited by: faggiano

  It is not so easy to change the HARD drive on this model.
  You have to remove many parts like keyboard, screen, cover and screw a lot.
  It's a little tricky, so you should have experience with this.

  As Akuma, go to a local ASP (authorized service provider) has said. They can help you replace the HARD drive.

• Satellite L300D-10 q recovery DVD Can be used on the replacement hard drive?

  Hello

  I was wondering if the DVD Recovery allows to install Vista on a replacement hard drive? The original hard drive is too small at 160 GB contain all the files that I use the virtual operating system image. The disk hard 500 GB of replacement must be large enough for that.

  The reason why I need to Vista, it's that the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Ubuntu 8.04.1 and 8.10, cause the fan to run at full speed all the time which is very annoying. So for the moment I can only use Linux in a virtual machine.

  I intend to stay with Toshiba, though, as my two latest portable Toshiba Satellite a PII and a PIII still work today, and both have had Linux on them.

  Now, back to my story, I intend to remove the existing laptop, hard drive use DVD recovery to install to external USB 500 GB disk, replace the existing hard drive in starting up the laptop from the USB and copy my data overall. Before you reformat the old drive as external storage, I will replace in the laptop with 500 GB drive and the test so I can boot from the new drive.

  Key question will be the change of equipment, i.e. the new hard disk of 500 GB prevent Vista to install or activate?

  Thank you very much

  Vista itself can handle huge HARD drive sizes, but the question is: the recovery disc will be happy with 500 GB? The laptop will recognize 500 GB?

  I think it will work very well, because the new laptops are released with 320 HARD drive. 500 GB is not far.

  Its a few trial and error unless anyone here has tested a disc 500 GB HARD themselves.

• HP ENVY 14 2020NR: need a recommendation for a replacement hard drive

  Greetings,

  I have an a HP ENVY 14 2020NR with a hard drive died. Blue several screens before the new year, did a complete system restore, which seemed to have fixed things. Unfortunately, after 10 days the blue screens are back. The unit is several years old, and my next step is to replace the hard drive. I have all the data backed up elsewhere and ready DVD restore disc.

  Here are the specs of the drive:

  Hitachi disc HARD 7 K 750-750. P/N H2T7501672S.

  I am trying to identify the right replacement hard drive. Looks like it was 750 GB at 7200 RPM. Some choice out there. Can anyone recommend the correct replacement hard drive?

  Thanks in advance!

  DaniBoy

  Based on the laptop HP ENVY 14 - Maintenance Service Guide, it seems that your computer supports the following readers and more.

  6.35 cm (2.5 in) hard drives (HD) and the SSDS (SSD), 9.5 mm (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in)
  Customer-accessible
  Serial ATA
  Supports the following hard disk configurations:
  ● 750 GB (7200 RPM)
  ● 640 GB (7200 RPM)
  ● 500 GB (7200 RPM)
  ● 320 GB (7200 RPM)

  Supports the following simple SSD drive configurations:
  ● 128 GB mSATA,
  ● 80 GB, mSATA
  ● 160 GB, SATA

  According to the above information, any hard disk 2.5 "SATA or SSD of 9.5 mm and 7.0 mm profile should work fine. This includes the newer readers who are more capacious.

  Please see Newegg - internal laptop hard drivesfor a few recommendations of HDD and Newegg - internal SSD for a certain number of decent SSD.

• Satellite Pro 2100: How do I reinstall the OS after replacing HARD drive

  I have a Toshiba SP2100 and I want to replace the hard drive, but I don't have any recovery CD
  So, how can I put the o/s back on?

  Try to connect the external HARD drive to the computer via the USB port and try to copy all content from the internal HARD disk external HARD drive. Then you could try to insert the external HARD drive in the laptop.
  But I've never tried this procedure and don t know if it will work.

  But usually after replacing HARD drive you should boot from the Boot CD as recovery CD or the original CD of Microsoft Windows.
  After the installation of clean Windows OS, you can visit the Toshiba drivers and you can download and install the drivers of Toshiba and utilities.

• Replacement hard drive for Portege P2010 - part number required

  Can someone tell me what is the part number for a replacement hard drive for Portege P2010 is? It has the latest version of the BIOS installed, if the capacity of the HARD disk can be greater than the original 30gig?

  Thank you

  Martin

  Hello Martin

  Unfortunately I was found no specific information. If I'm right, this unit needs 1.9 HDD and I think it can be much more expensive as 2.5 standard.

  Check it please this page http://www.laptopbits.co.uk/Database_files/Toshiba_Portege_2000_and_2010_series_spares.htm
  You will find a few pieces of upgrade for your device.

  Good bye
