• HP Pavilion 15 t-n200 CTO: new hard drive Help

  Hello

  Laptop was not start at all or take 15 + minutes to start.  I did a full reset by removing the battery and was still stuck on the Hp logo.  Conducted quick system check.  All passes except Hard Drive short DST check: failed.  Failure ID: GGFFTX-7407SB-MFPV6J-60V103 product ID: F6G93AV

  Date of purchase was 08/05/2014 so out of warranty & cannot get help from support.

  I guess I need to replace the hard drive?  Is this correct? I need not recover files or data of the machine, so from own is fine.  I want to upgrade to windows 10 once I get it - the initialization of the disorder began when I tried to upgrade, then machine evolves to 8.1.

  How can I find the specifications to order a new hard drive to make sure that I get the right thing?  Currently the car is ATA & 500 GB. Machine has Intel Core i5-4200U CPU @ 1.60 GHz Machine is not a touch screen.

  Of course, I'd appreciate any help someone could pay before ordering something.  Thank you!

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  See p. 59 for hard drive replacement. Unfortunately, yours requires a bit of work to get on the hard drive, involving a removal of the top cover, but not the motherboard.

  You definitely need a new hard drive and the system will accept any 7 or 9.5 mm thickness 2.5-inch wide SATA hard drive or disk solid state drive.

  I'll assume that you are located in the United States, unless post you back and let me know if not.

  I settle down to less than a mechanical drive of 7200 RPM like this:

  You can also make a hybrid that has a bit of the State solid and also tops mechanical like this:

  The best and fastest are a SSD drive like this:

  http://www.Amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-inch-internal-MZ-75E500B-am/DP/B00OBRE5UE/ref=sr_1_2?s=PC&ie=UTF8&QID=1448744072&SR=1-2&keywords=Samsung+850+Evo

  Sometimes, a video is the best way to learn and see which would involve:

• Install Vista on a new HARD drive help

  A few days ago my hard drive died. No idea why, but it has just stopped working. I went out and bought a new hard drive at best buy and went home to install Windows Vista Home Premium. Everything works fine until it gets to "Expand the files" around 26%. Once it gets there it just goes to the 'Blue screen of death '. I use a serious Vista x 86 iso to install it (it was my old OS so I just used the serial code I had). I tried to install it 3 times now and no luck.

  Now when I turn on my computer it will say "press any key to start from the CD or DVD and BOOTMGR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart"I did another disk and it burned at a lower speed and still happens. Anyone know what is happening?

  Specifications of the computer.
  Processor: AMD Phenom 9750 Quad-Core, 2.40GHz
  Installed memory - 8192 MB/PC2-6400(2048/DDR2 SDRAMx4)
  DD - WD Caviar Green 500 GB SATA

• New hard drive Help

  Hey,.

  Hard drive of my Hp laptop g56 becomes close to having an imminent failure... That's my fault... I dropped it... once again. Yes, I'll be the first to admit that I'm a bit lumpy. This is the second time I had to replace the hard drive because of the impact trama to the laptop. I wear is everywhere for work.

  This weekend I'm going to buy a new one and want to know if there are any recommended HDD or SSD on who we pronned less damage during the fall. Better those lower priced at $ 150.

  Hello

  Because the HARD drives use mechanical parts, they are easier to 'die' than of the SSD. Some computers have some kind of protection against shock, they use sensors to reduce the impact (for example, the nominal military machines), but they are more expensive than our normal laptop.

  For $150, you can buy an SSD for about 120 GB, 200 GB.

  Kind regards.

• dv2845se, Vista, incompatible drivers, new hard drive, please help :(

  I'm fighting for a week at least. The HARD drive failed on this pc.

  So it is a pure Windows Vista 64 bit install on a new hard drive.

  It's pc to my son and he did not create recovery discs.

  I used this nvidia chipset sp36607 (evil)

  The chipset for this laptop is not listed here > HP Pavilion dv2845se Verve Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers

  I installed the drivers in this order, because I thought it was the right order. Correct me if I'm wrong.

  (1) sp36607 Chipset

  (2) graphic sp37860

  (3) sp39679 Audio (installation fails. so I used windows update to install this)

  (4) sp37859 Modem

  sp38361 5) HP Quickplay

  (6) sp38688 HP Quick Launch Buttons

  (7) sp39249 Driver WiFi

  8 (a) sp37809 Ricoh 5-1 driver card reader (I chose it because of the uncertainty and because of several apparently in conflict)

  8 (b) sp37872 Ricoh Media Card Reader driver host controller (it is on the page above)

  9 a) Alps Touchpad sp42605 the (I chose this because of the uncertainty and because of several apparently in conflict)

  9 (b) sp37855 ALPS Touchpad Pointing Device Driver (it's the one above on the page)

  (10) YouCam software sp37849

  (11) sp38081 Lightscribe

  I rebooted after each installation of driver to see if that helps.

  I have the BSOD after installing the Alps... it seems to coincide?

  Stop errors are 124 material... ram passes memtest86 + and I use a test drive Seagate tools just because I don't really know what to do at this point. I reinstalled the OS 4 or 5 times already.

  What in the world I am doing wrong? This is by far the more difficult pc for me so far.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Dawn

  ETA: HDD spent Seagate long ordeal.

  Hello:

  Sorry you have such a hard time there.

  It is possible that the motherboard is shot, but not because of what you did by installing the drivers.

  The dv2000, books of Series 6000 and 9000 with the nvidia chipset and graphics had serious problems of motherboard, and the more you use the PC - especially if they played video games on it, faster boards are dead.

  HP even had a recall several years ago on these models have replaced motherboards.

  There is another possibility, and it is one of the memory of the chip is bad.  You can remove one and see if the laptop works again.  If it's the same thing, pass the memory chips.  If it still does not work, then it is possible, that it was just time to go.

  Unplug the adapter and remove the battery before working inside the laptop.

• Need help with a new hard drive in pavillion wiring elite M9400

  Hello fellow owners HP,.

  I recently bought a 1 TB hard drive for my Pavilion Elite M9400T.  I done my share of reading about installing to a new hard drive to another former post office and know how to physically install the disk in the slot, but my question starts with the wiring.

  I have a M9400T and saw the video of the installation here in this post.  I read to the bottom when he talks about the installation of additional hard disks into the empty Bay and had questions about the son in photo 5 on the photo below. I realized that I needed a Sata cable, so I bought one today, but I wonder if I can use other cables inside the case already for power. And who will be all I have to do to get this properly installed disc? I took pictures so that it would be easier for me to ask for help.

  

  

  A and B belong to my main hard drive and I want to know if I can use D (unused but looks like B) and a Sata cable bought my 2nd hard drive. I also noticed that B is related to C, which leads to the motherboard, so I didn't know if I needed to do the same for the 2nd drive.

  

  Connectors SATA 1 and 6 are taken by my hard drive and DVD drive (I think) cannot so I just put my 2nd hard drive on one of the remaining of the caps of 2-5?

  Thanks in advance for any and all tips and suggestions.

  BTW, I I was able to install the sticks of memory 2x2gb today without any problems for a total of 6 GB today but no matter what slots? I added the 2 slots of the fan and it seems to work very well.

  SO, Yes, you can use power connector would be ' for your new hard drive.  If you look closely at the image of a ' and follow the Red wire, it runs directly on the white molex (P4) beside the PSU connector.  He doesn't have to go to the motherboard.  Is not feed all the other components.
