New Intel 320 SSD boot - E325

I got a new intel 320 120 GB SSD drive for my E325. BIOS recognize and I could installed Linux Mint Debian top several times - but it does not start. It looks like its trying to start in place of the network, and after that it says "operating system not found '.

I updated the bios to 1.11

I tried to 'Compatibility' Sata in the bios.

EDIT > I tried to use the Legacy Bios option but nothing has changed. If I choose to boot from the SSD by pressing F12 at startup, the screen goes black for a second and then she comes back to the start menu. No error message, nothing.

The guy at the phone support Lenovo recommended this drive, so it should work right? Smart says the reader is in good health and I can compare it. Anyone who has used an Intel SSD with a front E325?

Any tips?

Thank you

I'm sorry for the late reply. I gave in and installed windows 7 instead, which starts very well. I've learned since my problem was with linux mint and its boot loader (GRUB/GRUB2) that did not well with the EFI Bios. Thanks for trying to help!

Another is it take too long to load all over go on udates and FAIL! It loads real slow, I did a check on said SSD that's fine. I got another thing same drive. So I was wondering I missed something maybe a driver I need to download? Maybe update my BIOS, I only did that because I can't find an update but haven't looked really hard.

    Sides are good. As I said it is an older SSD and just may not be configured to work with current storage controllers.

  • Replace the HDD with SSD boot disk and use the disk HARD now as secondary storage

    I need to:

    delete the original OEM HD

    Install the SSD

    install OEM HARD drive in secondary Bay

    Install Win 7 (I don't have install disks - what is on the HARD drive in his backup partition)

    or I have to

    delete this HD

    Install the SSD

    go into the BIOS, and then assign him drive in AHCI (etc.)

    Install Win 7

    install OEM HARD drive in secondary Bay

    etc.

    Hello:

    Your BIOS is set to AHCI (or RAID) by default. It cannot be changed.  Look in your device manager and in the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section, look to see if there is a controller SATA ACHI he.

    If so, you have an AHCI BIOS default.

    If you go further down the line in Device Manager and see a section of storage controllers, click on that, you would see a SATA RAID controller and your BIOS is set to default RAID.

    I don't have your model laptop so I don't know if HP has implemented some models double disk RAID or AHCI.

    So... First, copy your original C:\ drive SWSetup folder and save that to a portable hard drive. That must contain all the files installation for the drivers and the software provided with your PC. You can search this folder for programs that you may want to reinstall after your new SSD drive HARD primary.

    To install W7 on your SSD, check your own install of W7 disc.  Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    Hello
    I put upgraded my PC with a new motherboard, CPU & SSD. I have Win 7 Pro upgrade (X 86) on my current PC. What is the best way to install the new hardware and give the OS on the PC. I have to go back to my original XP software and go through the whole process for Win 7 (x 64)

    The Windows XP license is a license to the full retail version or did it come preloaed with the motherboard that you are replacing?

    If it came preloaded with the motherboard, you can not transfer it to the new motherboard. If it isn't, you can reinstall on the new motherboard and then use it as a qualification license in order to use the license of Windows 7 64-bit (if its an upgrade).

    or

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    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)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    Hello

    We have this new Intel Server QSSC-S4R with Nehalem processors, which should all be supported by ESX.

    Configuring hardware server works perfectly, we checked by installing SUSE Linux and Windows 2008 for more than a month and everything was working fine.

    Now we want to install ESX4 to run a cluster of virtual machines, I had to use a driver for the NIC 82576NS edge disc, but this worked great.

    But on first boot, the survey system a GROUP with us as indicated in the screenshot below:

    The critical part seems to be: "NOT_IMPLEMENTED bora/vmkernel/filesystems/fsSwitch.c:470", I can't find any information on this error.

    file systems I would assume that it is a hard drive failure, but SAS or SATA gives the same.

    fsSwitch also points to a network outage, then maybe the old disk (vmware-esx-drivers-net-igb_400.1.3.19.12.1-1.0.4.164009.185976) is faulty?

    I hope that someone has knowledge on this?

  • Acer recovery disks do not install Windows 7 on a new hard drive SSD

    Hi all!

    I have Ace Aspire 5742 G laptop and I have problems to install the Windows 7 operating system on my new hard drive SSD (I bought the SSD because the original hard drive is defect and do all the time... blue screens)

    For the factory restore, I use the restore disks. I burned the discs a few years back when the laptop has insisted me to do (using eRecovery or something, in total 3 dvds).

    Testing of computer to install the operating system with the DVD (asked to insert a dvd and then press a key). The real problem is that the installer will just in loops, restart and eventuallyfreezing in the end...

    Restart--> Acer--> Windows logo takes over... files-> from windows-> reboot-> etc.

    Which continued for more than an hour (on the first dvd!) and all of a sudden that it froze right on screen "starting windows..." I had to restart and stars on again once.

    I can still use my old formatted HARD drive, should I do the new set of recovery disks or use a USB?

    Thanks for the answers in advance!

  • Intel Rapid Start on single SSD (boot EUFI) technology

    Hi all

    I bought a new Dell Vostro 3360, Core i5, 8 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD, BIOS (A11) before Christmas.

    Was working fine and then failed to start. 2 days on the hotline, in the end the old motherboard (BIOS A11) has been replaced under warranty that it was not possible to boot from USB, wouldn't boot from SSD, no optical drive, the BIOS could not be flashed etc.

    However since the new motherboard (A12) quick start Intel exhibited the following behaviors:

    1. TSRI timer set to 1 minute. The documents left open on the screen.
    2. On the lid close / sleep, the system goes into S3 state with power light pulsed.
    3. After waiting for 1 min, the hard drive turns on, apparently wrote the current session of the RAM to 'Hibernate' SSD partition.
    4. All the power lights turn off, the system now seems to be in S4.
    5. By pressing the power button, power light comes on briefly (approx. 1 second) and then all the lights went off and system does not start.
    6. Pressing power button a second time the system will be 'cold' start, IE no recovery from sleep mode. Back on the desktop all open documents are closed. And by examining the log of events says:
    1. Critical - error ID 41 - "the system has rebooted without stop properly first. "This error can be caused if the system unresponsive, crashed or unexpected power loss.
    • The foregoing seems to demonstrate that in step 4, when the power to the RAM is cut, the session is lost, is that it is not successfully get written in the score or if this is the case, then it will fail to return the RAM to step 5.
    • For the record, "Quick start" Disabling Windows makes no difference.
    • Via high cmd powercfg-h off to turn off put into hibernation in Windows, makes no difference.

    So in the current like State left by the Dell, system technician otherwise manually shutdown and allowed to sleep will lose your open work / have not been saved.

    1. I've updated the BIOS with the latest "A13" with no improvement.
    2. I deleted then recreated the volume of 8192 MB with DISKPART according to - http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?c=us&cs=19&docid=545794&doclang=en&l=en&s=dhs

    Except that for a start of Win8 EUFI using a GPT disk, the ID VALUE must be SET ID = D3BFE2DE-3DAF-11DF-BA40-E3A556D89593.

    The VALUE ID = 84 OVERRIDE does not work on this kind of disc.

    I also then reinstalled the last configuration QuickStart of Dell - 2.1.0.1002, A00 (23/10/2012)

    3. the partition above appear to be "accepted" by TSRI, as the definition of ID above, TSRI disappears from BIOS unless and errors during the execution of the FIRST installation program.

    4. If I am not above, TSRI is not visible in the BIOS and I get the message "Quick start is not enabled" to start the desktop. In this scenario the sys remains indefinitely in S3.

    I spent another 2 days on the phone with the Support of Dell, and their ultimate solution is replace the motherboard again.

    I would like to know if it doesn't matter what other avenues / options to restore the Intel Quick start technology.

    Kind regards
    Graham

    PS apologies if this should be in the thread "Laptops" rather than "hard disks"?

    Technician Dell came today and replaced the motherboard.

    This solves the problem with Intel Rapid Start - to my surprise.

    No configuration changes of the software were made, unaltered hibernation partition etc.

    Then only the conclusion I can draw is that it was a hardware problem.

  • HP Envy 15 t-as000: brand new HP Envy w / SSD: "Boot Device not found".

    Hello

    I have a brand new (less than 1 week) HP Envy 15 t-as000 w / a 256 GB SSD.  After the impeccable behavior for 1 week, the laptop can be started is no longer.  No boot device is detected.  If I try to run a diagnostic on the hard disk, the BIOS I was informed that it can not detect even a current hard drive (see image)

    I don't know what happened.  I'm very careful with my machines.  He has not been abandoned. It has not been dropped on, or taken any sort of somehow.  I just pressed the power button one day (yesterday) and I see this:

    Thanks for the tips. I followed your recommendations and sent the laptop to HP for replacement (I bought this unit directly to the output from the HP website).

    However, I am frustrated because after all taxes and transportation costs, I had to pay an additional amount of $10.  The total general of the replacement order was $739,79 against $730,90 for the original purchase.  Why am I penalized $ 10 ($8,89 to be exact) for a mistake that was not even my fault?

    Also, I had to pay $24,83 FedEx packaging to send the laptop back.  How was I supposed to know I should have brought the Moose with me to Seattle, WA in Ithaca, NY packaging because the SSD was going to fail in my college dorm?

    So in the end, my HP Envy $730,90 now goes to the identical replacement of cost unit $739,79 + packaging from FedEx $24,83 phone = $ 764,62.

    Bottom line: screw - up HP cost me $33,72!  Not the end of the world but still a ringing sound nice when you're not yet a career with a cushy salary of mickael elite.

    I have improved my HD with a 1 TB of a 250 original HD - disk SSD TIMES. A new takes more time to start. It takes about 10-15 seconds of a black screen before the Apple logo and the start screen appears. Therefore, the new drive starts and loads faster than the older DSS programs. When I turned on the computer with the old SSD, I heard the 'noise' and the apple logo came immediately.

    I improved by my old disk cloning using SUPER DUPER of shirt pocket by putting the new HD into a box to clone. It went well. However, its takes more time to see the apple logo and I was wondering if some setting needs to be changed. Everything else works great!
    Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.

    Although this is not the problem, go to System-> startup disk Preferences and check that your OS X partition is highlighted as the boot partition. If this is not the case, do. After that, your Mac will automatically start in OS X. If you do not choose any boot drive, your Mac can find all disks bootable on your Mac, which can take some time.

  • Tecra R940 with Windows 7 SSD boot failure

    My company bought laptop computers Tecra R940 and replace the HDD with Kingston SSDNow v + 200 V + 120 GB SSD drives. On a test after installing the SSD device, the laptop was rebuilt with our brand image (Windows 7 x 64) that has successfully completed.

    Update post however a number of issues is apparent:

    1 occasionally during a restart, the laptop will display and then hang at 'starting windows' screen for the Windows logo animation appear and with the light of the hard drive continuously. After a period of time that a Windows recovery is attempted and, possibly, a reported error:

    Status: 0xc00000e9
    Info: An unexpected i/o error has occurred

    This problem will not occur at every startup, but once every 2 or 3.

    2. the following error message is logged in the Windows system log

    Source: ATAPI
    Event ID: 11
    Description: The driver detected an error in the controller on \Device\Ide\IdePort0

    I have tried the following to resolve the problem:

    1. update the R940 BIOS to the latest available (6.40).
    2. has confirmed that the BIOS SATA Controller is set to AHCI.
    3. not confirmed there are no available SSD drive firmware update.
    4. install the latest Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver of Toshiba (11.0.0.1032).
    5 tried different SSD. Same errors identified, so not a faulty SSD.
    6 tried the SSD in a Toshiba Portege R930. In this case the mistakes above are not apparent.
    7 reinstall the original HARD disk. In this case the mistakes above are not apparent.
    8A confirmed a 2nd unit (with installed SSD) logs the same event ID 11.

    My tests left me at a point where I think that there is something bad at the end of R940 with a hardware or software that does not like the SSD.

    If someone has solved a similar problem or have thoughts on fixing this?

    Thank you in advance.

    Specific installation of corporate images are always full of risks, and quite often, there are different problems. As much as I know in the past Toshiba has created special images of recovery for some companies who ordered a specific number of booklets for employees.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here, but I would like to know if you have tried to install own OS Win7 using the original disk of Microsoft.

    I mean that it must be possible to install Win7 clean on the new laptop models. I tested it on my U940 satellite and it works well. I had some trouble with Toshiba specific stuff (tools and utilities), but it was not so important and work with Win7 was possible in any case.
