  • Qosmio G20: No HARD drive recognized when installing XP

    I have a problem with my Qosmio G20.
    One of my hard drives was damaged so I bought a new try to reload Windows XP Pro but it came out with an error massege that says: "the installer has NOT FIND ALL disk HARD DRIVES INSTALLED in YOUR COMPUTER.
    But when I check on the Bios it supported hard drives

    I would appreciate any help from you guys

    Hello

    Maybe your Win XP OS does not include the RAID driver!

    Qosmio G20 supports RAID functionality and you must include the RAID driver during the installation of WIN XP by pressing the F6 key.
    The RAID driver can be found on the European driver Toshiba page.

    If you need information more than just posting it here ;)

    Hi dezertdawg,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Msvcr71.dll errors are caused by situations that lead to the removal or corruption of the msvcr71 DLL file. In some cases, the msvcr71.dll errors might indicate a
    problem of registry, a virus or malware problem, or even a hardware failure.

    You can use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to ensure that the system files are intact and replace the file. Follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

  • Alternative to the reset by Satellite A660 for potential HARD drive problem

    In the last week or two, I got a few blue screens, saying he was driving demand, and that windows must be shut down to avoid damage my computer.

    I have just restart and continue working.
    The last time it happened, I had repeatedly "initialization failed" and it says hdd, SDS, fdd. If I pressed the power button until I didn't see no signs of activity, then started. Things went well. I called Toshiba support and they recommended that I go home and save my files before continuing. It took hours selectively to clean, sort the previous backups, and a small footprint of the backup system.

    When I called Toshiba once again, they recommended a "takeover", which is restoring the factory settings. It puts me in the stone age. I have to go through a never-ending process of the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, install and reconfigure all the applications and environments/configurations, etc. It will essentially take on holiday, if not more. I'll also have to get another computer (maybe a netbook) to stay in touch while I restart my laptop. It's barely more than a year.

    Is there a diagnosis I can do to determine the probability that there is a hard drive problem? Support for Toshiba said that is the surest way, because it provides a diagnostic F10 for the hard disk code, and it also pushes the bad sectors at the end of the disc (logically, I suppose, since you can't physically move a fault).

    > About Hitachi DFT, is it important that my HARD drive is Toshiba mk6465gsx? This is what is displayed "Hard drives" in the Device Manager.

    It s no matter what HARD drive manufacturer, it is the Drive Fitness Test is able to scan all hard drives to find errors.

    > Also, http://www.hitachigst.com/support/downloads/#DFTshows links to create boot disks, but I was wondering if I could create a bootable instead.

    Not sure if this is possible if there is that one option to create a startup disk, and then a flash stick does not work. But of course you can try this out.

    > This laptop does not come with a floppy drive, and I still create coasters trying to burn discs.
    You don't need the floppy drive, the tool must create a disk bootable (CD)

    > I guess that the same question can be asked on Memtest86. Another issue is the relevance of Memtest86 for my system. My c drive has a "Program Files" folder, but also a "Program Files (x 86)" folder for 32-bit applications. Memtest86 is for the x 86 architecture. I don't know if my 64-bit Windows 7 involves a non - x 86 architecture.

    I guess that Memtest86 should also work on Win 7 64 bit systems. But also the MemTest 4.20 is 64-bit capable

  • Z500 hard drive failed, when the new bios disk inserted don't is not loading

    Out of the blue my z500 crashed and restart the hard drive was not recognized. I opened and made sure it is properly connected. Still nothing.

    I bought an ssd and inserted into the slot of the hard drive and when turned on it flashes the lenovo bios boot screen then instantly goes black. It flashes black then black and backlit constantly

    I removed the SSD and it loads the BIOS without a drive.

    I returned the ssd and got a replacement. The same problem reoccured.

    The ssd is approved to the z500 site crucial and fine as an external hard drive can be installed.

    The original hard drive makes a powered noticeable when rattle noise so I guess it was a normal failure.

    Any ideas? Any other information needed? I am a complete newbie to these forums and appreciate help from anyone.

    Try to install the ssd (of course power should be turned off before doing so). After the physical installation and place the back cover press the NOVO button. A menu should appear and select bios Setup to access the bios. If you can go into the bios put the bios configuration to the default values. Then set the PXE boot to disable. Save and exit.

    Note: You must start in a usb/dvd of windows installer since the ssd has nothing about it yet. Then may need to change some settings in bios inorder to do this.

    Hello

    I saw the 0x0000007B BSOD caused by trying to install XP on a disk hard while the BIOS is designating the reader as AHCI instead of IDE. XP has no native AHCI drivers, resulting in a stop 7B. Unless the PC had originally Vista or Win 7, but it might be useful to check that it is not likely.

    If the BIOS is set to AHCI, you could do one of three things (depending on whether your PC has a floppy drive)...

    1 find the Setup F6 disk on AHCI support at installation time (start with the manufacturer's website if you do not already have such a thing). Watch the very hit F6 prompt early in the installation process.

    2. change the setting in BIOS on IDE / ATA

    3. create a new "slipstreaming" installation disc drivers AHCI in the existing installation disc, see http://www.nliteos.com/index.html

    After the back if your BIOS is IDE / ATA

  • New HARD drive - how to install Windows?

    Hey guys,.

    I have a problem with my Dell Dimension 9150. A friend of mine gave me as a gift, because I built his new computer. We put his HARD drive in his new computer.

    The problem is: there is no CD of his computer.

    I have the original Windows XP and Windows MCE and CD licenses. The Dimension has a MCE key so I would like to install MCE.

    After installing a new HARD drive, I tried to install Windows. BIOS shows me the HARD drive. When I start the installation of Windows and choose "Windows Installer", I get to the screen where I can choose, what partition I would use. But installing Windows shows me no HARD drive!

    Don't know if I need SATA drivers? If I should need it, where can I find them? And how to get them in the Windows installation? I know that I can load pressing F6, but I don't have a floppy device.

    Would be great, if someone could help me.


  • Satellite 2430-101: external USB 2.0 HARD drive problem

    Hello everyone,
    I have Toshiba satellite 2430-101. Recently I bought external 40 GB hard drive. When I connected to my toshiba usb hub, it is said that it exceeds the limit of the power, and I need to detach the external hard drive. When I read these last questions, someone suggested to uncheck the power supply to the usb hub options, but he says always the same. They are someone to help me.

    Well, in my opinion, this problem occurs if the USB port can't provide enough power.
    In this case, that the USB hub must be connect to external power.

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

  • Qosmio F60 turning is not on - HARD drive problem

    Re: do everything or send it as it is only 6 months old, it is Bernard did this for 5 months

    Hello

    It sounds a bit like a HARD drive problem.
    I recommend checking out the HARD drive using a free tool called Drive Fitness Test
    This free tool allows you to get more details on the State of the HARD drive and maybe some error would be detected which would mean that HARD drive failures and disk HARD must be replaced.

  • Hard drive partition and install the new operating system

    HY,

    If I partition my hard drive and I install a new OS (E.g. Ubuntu 14.04) my warranty ends?

    Thank you

    SA

    Hello

    No, it will not void the warranty but HP only supports the problems with the original operating system and prove the operation of the equipment of the original OS.

    Do the recovery disks and keep them safe before so that you could go back to factory settings if there is no problem of partitioning.

    Recovery partition usually works after partitioning, depends on your luck, but you could make the 'Active' Partition in disk management and try for recovery if it works or not.

    Thank you
