  Hello

  How to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

• Need to replace the hard drive on HP DM4 2165-DX, need info on compatible disks.

  Hello.

  The hard drive in my HP DM4 2165-DX failed.

  Can someone tell me what [SSD and non - SSD] HARD disk are compatible can I buy and trade?

  Thank you.

  You will need the service manual you can download here:

  Manual

  Page 43 shows how to swap out hard drive.

  There are 9.5 mm thick and 2.5 inch wide SATA drives, mechanical or SSD. Eventually, it was mounted with a 160 GB SSD, but you can install more if you wish. I recommend at least a mechanical 7200 rpm or a hybrid disc if you do not want an SSD, but if you can afford to spend the money a SSD is the only way to go.

  It is the SSD, I have my own laptop (I have a 512 GB of the same drive model):

• Do you need to partition the hard drive to install Windows Vista Home Premium?

  I try to install Vista Home Premium on a Dell XPS 420 desktop computer and want to know if the hard disk must be partitioned before that I can do?

  If I need to, how to do?

  Thank you.

  You need at least a partition on the hard drive before you install OS, using management of build-in the windows disk, but there a lot of limit, if it could not reach your goal, you could use the 3rd party freeware

• HP Pavilion g7-1167, which is needed to replace the hard drive

  In fact, I have a few questions.

  First of all, I was streaming How I Met Your Mother online when a box appeared and gave a kind of message (I don't remember now). He was just sitting there, so I restarted the computer. After the reboot, the computer would not go beyond the screen "start wondows. I ran a dignostic and it says that the short test failed. I then ran a diagnostic in the bios and it ran the short test, he failed, then he ran about 5% of the test long then stopped and said "hard drive full 1."

  After looking online, I think it's a sign that it crashes. I already ordered the new hard drive and the kit at HP.

  But now I need to know how to get all my info out of it. My brother has an external hard drive that I can use, but I don't know if it will work.

  In addition, once I have installed the new hard drive I think I need to re - install windows and something else? Do I have to re - install and how do I do that if I don't have the disks? Can I do a recovery on that disk now, or is it too late? If so, how do I?

  I'm sorry, I don't know anything about computers, so any help is greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  First of all, about your existing data, here are some options that you can try.

  1. one possible way to try to recover your files from a disk non-boot is to follow the process described in the link below.  The CD of the Ubuntu operating system you create can launched from the CD alone (IE it doesn't have to be installed on the hard drive) and I've often found to successfully extract data even a hard failure.  When you created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can save your existing files. 

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/use-Ubuntu-Live-CD-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-Windo...

  2 another option would be to remove the drive HARD, place it in an external enclosure - is an example of the link below - connect to another PC and see if you can access your files.

  External 2.5 HARD drive caddy ".

  **********************************************************************

  Regarding the reinstallation of the operating system on the new drive, I don't think that you will be able to create a viable together your disc recovery disc HARD existing, but you can order a set of replacement of the HP recovery discs using the link below.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  If you have a problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

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

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

• Need to replace the hard drive on laptop G56

  Hi all

  I have a hp g56-108sa laptop. I had the hard drive replaced once under warranty and there yet again, but I don't want to not wait 10 days so he could be replaced again if I want to get a new drive hard but with a greater capacity (mine is 250 GB and I'm looking for ay buying a 320 GB one) , and I want to replace. Is this feasible?

  I ordered a few partners hp recovery disks that I stupidly didn't create a when I had the chance. The reason I ask this question, it is that I've read that other people have had problems by replacing the original drive with the largest on laptops

  Thank you in anticipation

  Pat

  Hello

  You should have no problem with a 320 GB HARD drive, the drive on the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

  Hard drive 320 GB

  The procedure to replace the hard drive is detailed on Page 37 of your & Maintenance Guide.

  Once this is done, just use the recovery disks you ordered to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - they will also recreate the Partition D of recovery on the new HARD drive.

  Kind regards

• Satellite L300D-10B - need to replace the HARD drive

  Hello.

  I have a Toshiba satellite L300D-10B and I need to replace the broken hdd in my laptop.
  It is a hitachi 160 GB at 5400 RPM SATA.

  Is it possible to move to a greater capacity (500 GB) and a little faster (7200 RPM).
  is - that someone at - he had success with any particular model?

  Hello

  In my opinion, is not a big problem to use a faster and larger HARD drive.
  The laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and this controller must be able to manage these drives.

• Need info on the HARD drive adapter and utility installation Vista on Equium A110

  I am the owner of a satellite A110 - 233 (PSAB2E), and I've recently upgraded to Vista after installing 2 GB of RAM. However, I was somewhat short space hard disk and I dealt with a new 120 GB HARD drive. However, it seems that the computer has an interface of edge, like the current Hitachi TravelStar HARD drive connector - it's not like there's a plug of the adapter on the disk. Anyone know where I can get an adapter for my hard drive of 40 pins 'traditional '?

  After I installed Vista and flashing my BIOS, I have ConfigFree reiinstalled and value added package (among other pilots). However, running ConfigFree always leads to a crash with the ID of BSOD "NO_MORE_IRC_STACK_LOCATIONS."
  In regards to the PPV, I mainly wanted it for energy savings. However, searching for him gives only 'Power Saver help'.

  Can someone give me guidance here? Thank you.

  Hello

  Did you know that you have a disk serial - ata of your machine which is not compatible with the standard IDE (40 pins)? You won´t get a spindle adapter 40 to serial ATA, SATA is a completely different technology to the IDE.
  You will need to return the drive, you bought and buy a disc serial - ata, that will fit your machine.

  A small idea on my side about your BSOD:

  Download the powersaver and the configfree for vista on the internet (it is a good address: http://209.167.114.38/support/Download/ln_byModel.asp) and reistall that stuff, maybe it helps.

• I need to replace the hard drive of my Acer Aspire all-in-one 5600U?

  I have an Acer Aspire all-in-one 5600U. The other day the power in our House went out due to a storm. After she came back and went to use my computer, the screen was black and said "Reboot and select proper... boot device." ». I tried to download the tool of creation of media to a USB port and start the system using this. I can get into the menu troubleshooting but nothing works. When I try to make a custom Windows installation, it says "no signed device drivers were found". What is a hard drive problem? In the BIOS, under Boot Options is does not list a specific hard drive. It just says: 'hard drive '. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

  Thanks, that's what I needed to know. Appreciate the help, IronFly.

• Need to replace the hard drive, Vista can be reinstalled with a different copy, then what came with the PC?

  A friends Vista Home Premium PC is in a horrible State - chkdsk repairs tons of "bad sectors".

  If I get a new hard drive, can I use my CD of 'Upgrade' from Vista Home Premium to re - install the Vista, using its product key?

  If this isn't the case - what other options can I?

  * original title - I need to reinstall vista - can I use my 'upgrade' with other people product code drive *.

  No, you can't. Its product key is OEM and linked to the Windows that is installed on the computer. Your option is to buy a new Windows software.
