  Hi, I have "1720 smart hard drive detects imminent failure" made a backup, Gather I have to get another drive. How can I transfer my windows vista / files to new drive? Help, please.

  Hello

  There are different ways to do

  and these methods depend on your hard drive work

  hard drive manufacturers will normally provide the cloning to move your operating system software from the old to the new drive hard If your old hard drive still works

  Search for information on this subject on their Web site

  If you have vista business or ultimate, you can use the builtin vista complete PC Backup to move

  read the information below

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial145.html

  or if you have vista home version you'll need 3rd party software

  link below is an example of this:

  http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/TrueImage/index.html

  also to put your machine how you bought:

  1. If vista is preinstalled, you should have a recovery on your old hard drive partition

  You can recovery disks to reinstall on your new drive hard If the old drive still works

  ask the manufacturer of the machine how

  2. contact the computer manufacturer 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 $

  3. or borrow a microsoft dvd vista

  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

• Installation of XP operating system in model of lab manager... No hard drive detected?

  I am currently trying to obtain a model of machine configuration virtual xp in lab management. I have deploy the model, mount the .iso image file, start the installation, but then installing XP spits a message that there is no hard drive detected on the computer.

  To install Windows XP, you must have a driver for the disk controller VMware disc. You can consult this article for download one-

  If that one doesn't work, then, you must submit a request for support and ask management to send you the right driver

• Smart HARD drive detects imminent failure on Satellite P

  Hello

  I have a message "SMART provides a defect on the disc dur0: TOSHIBA MK5055GSX-(S1)" or (the same in English) "Smart Drive detects imminent failure".
  On the newsgroups different 'people' says to change the disk.

  My problem is not to change the drive, it's easy. Expensive, but easy.

  As I understand it, on each disk from Toshiba, a hidden partition, which allows to restore the machine, with Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator there?.
  I would like to change the disc and use the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator? to restore Vista.

  How can I reinstall everything what to use Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator? This new disk to reinstall Vista from this new album.

  Thanks for any response.

  > If I understand correctly, each disk Toshiba, there is a hidden partition, which allows to restore the machine, with Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator?

  That s not entirely correct!
  The Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator creates the recovery disk! The recovery disk allows to recover the laptop using the drive and not the HARD drive recovery process!

  New portable Toshiba supports HARD drive recovery which allows to restore the laptop without the use of the recovery disc!

  Hi @Fraser11,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support.   I believe that since the departure of the power supply in your Pavilion 500-076ea that your hard drive is no longer detected.   I am convinced that I will be able to help you find a solution, and I ask only that pay you it forward. When solve us the problem, I would mark you kindly post as accept as Solution so that others have the same or similar problem can find what worked for you.

  Please use the document of replacement of the power supply HP and Compaq Desktop PCs as a checklist to make sure that nothing was missed when you have replaced the power supply.  From my experience, most of the time when this error occurs after the replacement of the power supply there is a cable that is not properly plugged.

• Portege R500 - install Win XP - no hard drive detected

  Hello

  I just bought a new Toshiba Portege R500 notebook - 12 H with Windows Vista, and I would like to format the hard drive and install Windows XP instead.

  I have a Windows XP CD (the one from my old PC), I insert the disk and start the laptop computer on the installation of the Windows XP CD to load, I get the screen asking me "push F3 to quit, entry to install XP" (as usual).
  But when I click on 'install', it says no hard drive has been detected, and I wonder if I have any additional drivers.

  How is it possible that my 120 GB HD is not detected? It is in a format that does not know Windows XP? Can I get a driver, how can I install it? Can I upgrade the bios?

  Please help me ;)

  Thanks for all,

  Missing driver SATA.

• hard drive detection error 2100

  My W530 just started displaying the error detection, however, Windows can still see the device, as well as the BIOS

  Windows it shows the real hard disk model.

  However, the BIOS shows as DRIVE.

  Does this mean the drive is failing (again), or is the SATA controller?

  This is a known bug. for anyone having problems (should probably post in the section windows 10), the problem is caused by the States of power enabling sata driver on the hard drive that does not support the bios.

  seems to have been fixed in build 9879

• Pavilion TouchSmart 23-f364: Hp Pavilion 23-f364 BIOS "finds it difficult to" hard drive Detection

  I have a HP Pavilion TouchSmart f364 23 for Christmas in 2013 and in 2014, the hard drive has begun to act. I would like to turn on the computer and it does not detect the drive or does not see the files it contains. The CD drive is detected and works all the time. I've updated the BIOS, I replaced the drive with a brand new, and since the old is in an external hard drive enclosure works like new money. The computer will always have problems in windows being blockages, then crashes. I looked for the reasons of the accident and they were due to mistakes of disk access. After reboot, the drive is not detected. In Ubuntu, the drive is detected and accessible (but I can't get the windows partition to mount, with the error "Windows is put in hibernation," even with the quick start off and a full stop). The point is that Ubuntu can see and access the drive to boot from the drive itself (if possible) and a live USB. Ubuntu will crash as or experience access errors, but when restart the BIOS sees not the disc. The disc turn and accesses a little bit, but nothing happens. In addition to the exchange of discs, I also swapped sata ports on the mobo with no luck, and power connectors are different, so no swap it. I want to know now if replace HARD drive cable may solve the problem or if I need to replace the mobo or this computer is just cursed. (Father: when I asked for a desktop I do not mean all in one)

  TL; DR: The Bios does not detect hard drive or detect but once at random, at random, windows crashes because of this, Ubuntu works perfectly well and has access to disk drive and boot Live, bios does not always detect drive. Tried upgrading BIOS, replacement drive and swapping mobo ports sata, no luck, CD player works great every time. You want to know if buying a new HARD drive cable works or if it is the mobo which is bad.

  Also note: when I updated the BIOS it says it resets the CMOS and I repeatedly loaded by default in the BIOS settings. I have found but not yet tried the CMOS clear jumper.

  Hi @Lesking72,

  Welcome to the HP Forums! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  Thank you for posting. I read your post and I understand that the old hard drive can operate as an external drive, but the new drive and the old disk cannot be detected in the BIOS. You can run hardware diagnostics to test the motherboard and hard drive. If the motherboard and the hard disc as well spent, you can consider if it is a cable problem.

  Here is a document, which you can view:

• HP mini says check Smart hard drive detected an immenent failure

  Went to use my mini and he had a black screen with a warning about the content of backup immediately because it has detected a failure immennent.  It won't let me something but run the proposed test and the test of hard drive has failed in this regard, a HP mini 110-3100. Not even yet 3 years old.  Can someone tell me if I lost all that on it or if there is a fix that I can do myself or take home. Could what cost be, no idea?

  Please and thank you!

  Probably the best chance to recover all your files would be to remove the hard drive. Then attach it to a > hdd USB adapter or a > USB hdd Enclosure. Plug it into a machine via USB and hard drive will appear as a drive to extra storage that you can browse and copy files on the hard drive of the machine to work. Of course, it depends on how much life is left in the drive.

• External USB 2.0 Hard Drive detected only 10 seconds in the Device Manager

  I am running Windows 7 and trying to plug my hard drive 200 GB from an old computer with XP in my new computer via USB 2.0 to an external case.  The external box is its own source of power and requires no drivers. When I plug it into the USB port, I hear the Bell indicating the window detects an external device and she appears under USB devices in Device Manager, but only for about 10 seconds then disappears.  It never appear in disk management or in the computer as a mass storage device.  I tried to use other cables/USB ports. I tried exchanging the external box for a new thought the first one was defective, but that did not help.

  Hi Stroke77,

  ·         Did you get the computer pre-installed with Windows 7?

  It is about if the external drive worked when the computer was working with Windows XP or Windows Vista.

  Here are some steps that may help you solve the problem.

  1. plug in and turn on the external USB hard drive
  2. right mouse click on workstation
  3 left click on manage
  4. click on Device Manager
  5 expand the USB list
  6 find the USB device to USB hard drive
  7. the right mouse click - Uninstall
  8 turn off the external USB hard drive
  9. turn on the external hard drive USB and let it find and install the driver
  10. it should work

• HP Pavilion a6645f no hard drive detected BIOHD-2 error

  1st off I'm no computer expert... so I really have no idea what I'm doing, but I've been looking online to the best of my ability and try everything that I have seen that I can understand how to solve the problems.

  First of all, I got the cursor flashing at the top left of a black screen, now I get the boot failure message, insert the disc... I did that dance together and nothing comes of it.  Error cannot be fixed with the scan that it allows me to do using the system disk, I did.

  I managed to access a screen that informed me that I have this error BIOHD-2, no hard drive not detected.

  It's a Seagate Barracuda HD 500 GB 7200.11

  I removed the Panel and went there... insured all caps were closed, tried a different SATA port... and when I go into the BIOS I can not get the comp to recognize any HD is connected... all read 0 MB.

  From my research I found information contradictory on this... some sound like its without a doubt a HD - sound problem is, some say it could be a motherboard problem?  Is - it necessarily one or the other based on the info I gave?  I read that I should try to connect the HD to another PC with a SATA port, but this will affect any PC I plug it somehow? Let's say another computer detects the HD when I look in the BIOS, I'll be able to extract all the files and programs from there? How will I know if the motherboard is the issue and not the HD? As ports have bad or the taking of the HD to the motherboard maybe? It is even probable, if yes?

  What if it is the HD, and I can install an old HD work? Is there a way I could try to extract anything from the Seagate which is in there now?  Unfortunately, the only things that I backed up on an external are some pictures and a few digital scrapbooking files.

  Still, I'm NOT a computer person so half may not even be English in computer science, but I hope I made sense. Laughing out loud

  Oh, and I'm no longer in warranty... HP told me when I called this past weekend when it happened. PC is about 3 or 4 years... don't remember not that December it was bought in.

  Thanks to all those who have actually tried to read and give a sense of my mess

  semperfibc,

  Thank you for your service.

  Several years ago, Seagate had a problem of firmware with the Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 drives. The reader would cease all features. Your beyond any warranty on this drive, and have no options that are financially reasonable.

  Now, you need to install a replacement drive.

  I hope you did your ONCE one Recovery DVD. Otherwise, you will need to buy them from HP.

  You can try an external SATA to USB box with this old disc, but there is no guarantee.

  I tried replacing the hard drive, but it was always the same thing, so I put the old one back in.

  I need to find a way to fix it.

  Can anyone help?

  Assuming that your laptop was manufactured after 2003, you can try the HP drive diagnostic tool, but it seems that if you have a more serious hardware problem: cable/connector from the hard drive is faulty or the on the motherboard disk controller has failed.

  You can see also solve the Start Up and No Boot problems checklist but that probably tells you nothing that you have not already tried.

• Windows 8 Installation, no HARD drive detected

  Hi guys,.

  My first post here and hope I can find a solution here. I have the Alienware 17 X R4. My main HARD drive is the 256 GB SSD. So, apparently, I had windows 8.1 and everything was working fine until I don't know how I got the 10 installed top windows. So now, I have 10 windows on it. After using it for a day, that I wanted to do a clean install just so I could get rid of some unnecessary errors. I created a bootable USB stick using the alienware respown. When I tried to do a clean install I just cleaned my C drive and chose the option to completely clean my drive. The installation failed, and now I'm left with a computer that does not have an operating system on it. Since nothing did not work I thought of formatting my C drive which I did using the command prompt and also decided to return to windows 8. I had the USB bootable to windows 8. I has not changed anything on the system BIOS configuration, but would still installation system and ensured that I return to the default settings just to be sure.

  I started installation of windows 8 and here my problem, I am not all readers. I had 2 HDD. An SSD is and the other is a regular 1 TB of HARD drive. I don't see any of my hard drives so I can't install windows more. I also ran the full system diagnostics, and it seems all good. I tried to put the discs into the USB port but it would still give me an error. Finally, I read somewhere on the internet to change something in the RAID BIOS to ACHI. I did and that actually worked. But I tried to install windows and when it reaches it took some time and that the installation was not performed. Now I don't know what to do about this. Please someone suggest something, I want to just my computer running with the right settings. I don't want to waste his time. If anyone has an ideas please let me know.

  Thank you

  Don't bother trying to reinstall Windows 8, it is now obsolete. Since you already had put Windows upgraded to Windows 10. Your systems hardware profile is saved with a Microsoft Product Activation Server and considered a Device 10 Windows , this means that you can reinstall clean Windows 10 directly. See here for more information about getting support for Installation of Windows 10:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/download-Microsoft-Windows-and-Office/Download-Microsoft-Windows/download-Windows-10-OEM-and-retail-ISO/

  You must use the right support to Installation of Windows 10 and not a Windows 10 disk recovery you have a system with several hard drives. Make sure that you select the correct edition. Skip the product three times in the course of installation and Windows 10 key it will activate automatically.

  You should not need to prepare and load the SATA drivers for Installation of Windows 10 support, but if you make them instructions are here:
