my laptop is not boot.i am trying to install a new copy of windows 7 and stuck as above mentioned.when I diagnose the HARD drive told for replace.i replaced but bothing start changed.doesnt. Any suggestions?

Hello

Error 305 is a long drive Self Test failure and would indicate that the HARD disk has failed.

As another test, you can try the following.

Follow the procedure below to create a bootable Ubuntu CD and follow the steps in part 3 of 'Try' to see if the operating system is running.  The option 'Try' runs the operating system from the CD without having to install on your HARD drive.  If it works Ok (it will be slow running on a CD), this would tend to confirm that the problem is with the HARD drive.

  • I bought Adobe Acrobat Pro XI through Dell, the it - installed but the Basic program starts not even - the only thing I can do is open the forms - I'm tired of working with foreign personnel to solve my problems can someone seated?

    1. Last week I bought Adobe Acrobat Pro XI - it does not work - I can access the forms - but I can't access the Basic program - reps tech worked on it for a long period of time last week and now I can't even open the Basic program.  Frustrated


    2 weeks as my hard drive (XPS18) locked Windows me - I could not go to a restore point, I couldn't do anything.  So I had to start from scratch - re-load the operating system - windows 8.1 Pro 8.1.  Then it is time for reloading MS Office 2013 - I got my Dell/MS product key - but had to get involved Microsoft (do whatever they did) to allow me to put it back in my current product key.  All resolved, then is the time to go to my Adobe product - I've contacted Dell and I shared the purchase and shipment showing slip $ 299.00 for the Adobe product.  I assumed that it is in my digital library - I could not find any digital library - so I called the customer support number (Overseas) and they couldn't help me.  Bottom line, I paid for an installed electronic product and don't have no way to access to re - load.  After several days and calls - I am at my last appeal on October 23 in the morning - bottom line the tech rep could not find any information on my Adobe product.  In order for me to get my business online, I ended up buying another Adobe product price still an another $ $299,00.  Yes, it was a new version of what I had, but again he did have to pay full price, even if it's an upgrade, then after installation, integration, and the Fund - I asked for documentation for the Adobe product and the license key.  He said "do not worry about this, all you have to do is call the customer service number and we will help you" - well this isn't enough for me - because you can see above what happened earlier and I am complete was dissatisfied with the results.   I've been a long-time buyer/user and believe in the Dell product - but the service the customer to your loyal customers really sucks!  As a consumer of your product (s), all that I pay because I should receive the required documentation, the numbers of license and any information related to that hardware, software and firmware - I should have a way to access.

    Thank you

  • "The installation program starts services.

    I put my netbook Acer Aspire One Happy 2 on as usual to find a weird gray screen with an installation of automatic recovery happening. When it's over, he said that he could not automatically get back or something. In any case, I ended up restarting my computer using the option that creates a backup on the hard C drive. Towards the end an error message came up saying "the program installation starts services" and it has been like this for more than a day now. I cannot go beyond that and don't know what to do! Would appreciate urgent help! Thank you, Amy.

    Try unplugging all non-essential devices, you may have attached to the machine, they might interfere with installation.

    Try to reduce the amount of RAM installed on a single key and installation to see if it ends. If it succeeds, you can switch to add additional RAM.

    If you have more than one internal hard drive attached to the system, remove all except the hard disk target where Windows 7 is installed.

    ----------------
    If you have external storage devices such as external hard drives or USB drives attached to the system, unplug them, they might interfere with installation.

    If you have downloaded Windows 7 online as a digital download and burned to a blank DVD disc, it might be corrupted, try to burn again at the speed below supported by your DVD burner.

    If the problem still occurs, try to download another copy and burn to a blank DVD disc again.

    ----------------

    Other things to try: according to Microsoft:

    Installation may stop if the system cannot copy files. Here are some possible causes and solutions for this problem:

    Your Windows installation disc is scratched, smudged, or dirty. Clean the disc with a soft cloth, insert it in the CD or DVD drive, and then start the Windows installation again. If your installation disc is damaged, you may need to replace it. For more information, go to how to replace lost, broken, or missing Microsoft software or hardware on the Microsoft Web site.

    Your CD-ROM or DVD drive is not working properly or the disk might be vibrating too much for the laser correctly read data. For more information about this problem, see your hardware documentation or contact the manufacturer of the CD or DVD drive.

    If your computer has multiple CD or DVD drives, your computer may attempt to locate files on the wrong drive. If your computer has a feature to disable CD or DVD drives that are not used, turn off readers that you don't use. Otherwise, try to insert the disc in a different drive, and then restart the installation.

    This is usually caused by hardware or software that is not compatible with Windows 7. If you have this problem, follow these steps:

    Wait about 10 minutes to see if the installation continues. Look at the led on the hard drive (often a small light on your computer that blinks when your hard drive is running) to see if there is no activity. If your hard drive seems to be working, the installation must be current. If your hard disk doesn't seem to work, go to step 2.

    Uninstall all antivirus software, and then restart your computer. Don't forget to enable antivirus software after you install Windows.

    If the installation fails again, it may be a hardware incompatibility problem. Go to the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor on the Microsoft website to see if your computer can run Windows 7.

    If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

  • Segmentation fault and stuck in the emulator program

    I went to run the test code GPIOLEDTest tonight.  When loading on the Pi, I got the following error in the PuTTY window:

    [ERROR] ISO [DAAPI] = - 1 cannot open Segmentation Fault.

    Also, I get this error when you try to run the GPIOSwitchTest code that I downloaded.

    I reduced the offending code to the following:

    In GPIOLEDTest, is line 39 in GPIOLED.java-> as - DeviceManager.open (ledID);

    In GPIOSwitchTest, line 52 in. GPIOSwitch.java-> switchPin = (GPIOPin) DeviceManager.open (config1);

    Thus, it seems that this has something to do with me and the DeviceManager.open () method.

    Trying to debug, I went back to something I knew ran in the past, the code of duties 1.  When I try to launch it on IP, the emulator think test GPIOLED code is still ongoing.  I tried selecting this line in the emulator and hit remove them, but nothing that I do take this program in the list of the emulator.  Can anyone help?

    The following is the log file for the execution of the GPIOLEDTest device.  I guess that the GPIOSwitchTest file is similar.  The last line seems to indicate that the JAD file is not found, even if there is a JAD file in the expected directory.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • When you try to install windows 7 64 bit, he asked me to remove the disc and start over, but it does not help. Help, please.

    So I have a 32-bit windows system 7 and I'm trying to upgrade to a windows 7 64-bit system.

    I have an installation disc, and my pc should be able to handle 64-bit.

    However, when I insert the disc (yes my drive is started first in the BIOS)

    The installation program starts,

    I have chosen the language,

    Accept the terms and choose to upgrade.

    He then gives a compatibility report:

    "the computer has started using the windows installation disc remove the installation disc and restart your computer so that windows starts normally.

    When I restart my pc while the disc nothing happens and when I restart my pc with the drive the process repeats.

    I'm looking for for a long time on the internet and I can't find all the solutions that work for me.

    Please give detailed answers, all help its appreciated.

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)
    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:
    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.
    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    After the first reboot, set the BIOS to boot from the hard drive.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.
