Overheated computer, laptop CQ61, now "the hard disk does not exist '.

I have reset the BIOS, I held down the power for 30 seconds while the battery is out. I don't know how to put back the hard drive. Is this my only option left? If yes I can't find a video on how, just remove videos. Anyway, can I get the hard drive to scrap and buy a new one, or are a kind of trendy connectors, fried or in ruins and I need to get a new laptop?

Reinstalling the hard drive is made exactly as you did. The only option now is to try to replace the hard drive with a hard drive retail. It is the only way to determine if it is only the hard drive that has been damaged.

If you need help to choose a replacement, post back with the complete model number or product as indicated on the Service tag on the bottom of the laptop. If you know what your hard drive capacity is just be sure to get one at least as large a capacity in order to use your recovery disks to reinstall Windows. It can be larger but not more small capacity, such as whether you have a 320 GB hard drive, now, you could use a 500 GB but not a 250 GB hard drive.

    original title: ike and authip error 1075 the dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion

    Hello

    Remember to make changes to the computer before the show?

    You can follow the below methods:

    Method 1: Restart Windows and try to start the Security Center service.

    If you still receive the same error, make sure that the WMI service is launched and running:

    (a) click Start, run , and then type Services.msc

    (b) double-click Windows Management Instrumentation

    (c) set its startup type to Automatic

    (d) click Start to start the service, and then click OK

    (e) restart Windows.

    Method 2: Restart the service

    Windows logs an error if the service IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modules or the driver does not start, or suddenly, they end.

    To restart the IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modules service:

    To perform this procedure, you must have membership in the local Administrators group, or must you have been delegated the appropriate authority.

    (a) restart the service. You can do this from a command prompt or in the snap-snap-in Services Microsoft Management Console (MMC). Do one of the following:

    ·         Start an administrative command prompt. Click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. At the command prompt, run the command net start ikeext.

    ·         Click Start, type services.msc in the Search box and press ENTER. In the column name of the Services snap-in, right-click on IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modulesand then click Start.

    (b) if the attempt to restart the service fails, restart the computer. This forces all related and dependent services to restart.

    (c) if the error persists after restarting the computer, then the executable files for the driver or service may be damaged, and the operating system must be reinstalled.

    Note:

    You can check that the IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modules (IKEEXT) service runs by using the Component Services Microsoft Management Console (MMC) or the net start command line tool.

    You can check the link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733299 (WS.10) .aspx

  • Satellite P300 - 190 PSPC2C - water spill and the HARD disk does not appear on the Setup

    Hello

    Spilled water on the keyboard. Laptop has stopped working.
    Dried, but did not recognize the HDD start up and HDD does not Set - up.
    Moved the HARD drive to another location of the HARD drive on the laptop and it appears at startup and boot OK.
    Is there an easy way to find and repair the defective HARD drive slot?

    Thanks for any help.

    PK

    Hello

    The HARD drive slot is not repairable. It s a HARD disk controller and I guess the HARD disk controller is dead.
    The HARD disk controller is part of the motherboard and if you want to repair it, so the entire motherboard must be replaced.

    New motherboard would cost a small fortune he of not good about market 350Euros
    That's why I put t think it is s to replace the mobo only to get the HARD drive in the first location of work

    This is my personal opinion...

  • device not found Boot, hard disk does not exist... does that mean my computer is dead?

    Suspecting that Im in a world of pain here. I tried to turn on my computer and it says "boot device not found" - performed in test failed... when I hit F4 and test drive, he said "there is no hard drive. The test of memory passes, but under the boot device not found says blue "Please install an operating system on your hard drive"... and to make matters worse he makes funny sounds when he tries to start.

    Is there no hope at all that this computer working again? Is there a chance that everything I had on my hard drive can be recovered?

    You are the very welcome, Jonathan.

    dv5 is still not enough information to provide me with the service manual (in which case there is differerent for different dv5 models).

    But here is the link to the service manual I've pulled at random.

    http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c01550108/c01550108.PDF

    Guess it's safe to say that all dv5 models come with the laptop SATA drives.

    So, if you want to spring for $15, you can get this place that apparently has very good reviews.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817182138

    From what you describe (noise and other things), I would say that you don't have much chance of recovering the data, but it's up to you if you want to try the speaker or not.

    Here's what I recommend:

    Pull the hard drive and turn on the laptop.

    If the weird noise you heard has disappeared, then you can pretty much assume that the disc was the cause and replacing the disk and reinstalling the operating system will solve the problem.

    If the noise is still there, while there could be another problem, and it might be risky to throw good money after bad.

  • Tecra 8000: monitor and the HARD disk does not work - does not start

    I have a laptop Toshiba Tecra 8000 given to me the year last by my uncle. I live in England, but it is and bought the PC in Italy. I do not know if this causes complications, but I thought it may be useful.

    Since I got it it occasionally did not display any image of all system startup, so if I have given some time and restarted it would start working again. Happening of bagan more frequently and now I can't make it work. I have conections and found that everything was in place. Then he doesn't seem to be turning on, however when I replaced the front LED cable seems to be turning on and although I couldn't hear much the CPU was luminous heat. I opened the drive and it gave once more, succeeded him and he still wouldn't start. I had purchased and replaced the screws on the heatsink around this area but I did not handle it with many other things.

    So now, I have a monitor that does not work and a gard drive that won't start... Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Could be either the card mother, CPU or ram. The processor when it goes bad or is not locked in place (have had this before, install the CPU but forgot to turn the lock, so he cannot move) the computer will act as its startup, don't give any error and stay on a black screen. Verify that the processor is locked in place. Then remove the ram and try a stick of RAM that runs on another computer. If you try the RAM and the processor do not always start, then chances are your motherboard is dead and must be replaced. Hope this helps and that solve you the problem.

    Pilots may also need to be updated:

    Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek high definition
    Audio (this is an example and you can have an other name/maker).

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often
    and then install the latest version. Restart and check after each test, not
    rare to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just the version make sure you
    installed shows upward on the tab of the driver.

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    All,

    I have an AIO C7280 printer that is connected wireless to my router.  I have a pc (Vista) cable and a laptop wireless (XP) connected to the router as well.  I have no impression of question from the pc.  However, when I try to install the driver on the laptop I get an error just after that he asked me if it's a USB drive or a network printer.  I chose the network and the error appears saying "the specified service does not exist as an installed service.  I ping the printer from the laptop so I know it can 'see '.  I don't know what to do.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled several times without success.  Can anyone help?

    Thank you.

    Edit for more information:

    After building a log of installation failure and 'details', that's what I see:

    The service that the error message refers is the HP network devices support service. Try this...

    Open the contents of the installation CD, and then open the file "setup." Now you will find either a folder named 'netdevicemanager' or simply 'network '. Open if it is present. Now there should be a file with the same name as the file, but with extension .msi. Right-click on this file and click on uninstall. If you get a message stating that the action applies only to products that have been installed, and then click OK. Restart the computer IF necessary. Now, right-click on the file and click on install. Installation do not normally present a window of 'success' You will just see a bar of progress for a few seconds and disappear. Once this happens, restart the PC and check if the HP Network Device Support or similar service appeared in the list of services. If Yes, then reinstall the software, and it should install correctly.

  • Cannot install the printer. The print processor does not exist.

    Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.  I am able to install HP LaserJet printers but no virtual printer.  I can not load the XPS from Windows printer or Print to OneNote.  I also tried to load more than one PDF printer and none of them work.  The error I keep gettig to "cannot install the printer.  The print processor does not exist. »

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    My laptop has been reloaded from a picture, and I was not able to start the print spooler at all. I have studied the issue and cleaned files and registry entries and was able to print on real printers, but not virtual. That's when I asked the question.

    Finished reimage the computer again, and once again, I could not start the print service. We discovered that the image that the laptop was built from was actually a VMWare virtual machine, so we started to look in that direction.   We had to delete the following entry in the registry and rebooting, how the print spooler began to work very well.

    [Print HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\ThinPrint for VMWare Port Monitor]

    You wanted to post this in case someone else ran into a similar problem.

    This is what worked for me.

    I copy the files from the print processor from another machine to work with the same architecture as the one who has the problem (x 86 or x 64).

    Step 1: Stop the print spooler service.

    Step 2: Copy all the files and folders on the system to work under C:\Windows\System32\spool\prtprocs\x64.

    Step 3: Make a backup of the system files listed in the C:\Windows\System32\spool\prtprocs\x64 problem.

    Step 4: Paste the files that you copy from the system of work in the case of the United Nations, the problem system.

    Step 5: Start the print spooler service.

    Try to connect or install your net printer and it should work now.

    I hope this work for all of you.

  • The specified domain does not exist or could not be contacted.

    Last night I completely disconnected my laptop. This morning when I turned on the machine, she does everything as planned. When I reached the screen that requires a password to connect to Windows, the following error message came after I saw that my password and press ENTER.

    The specified domain does not exist or could not be contacted.

    I use Windows Vista Ultimate and the laptop connected to a wireless router.

    I tried to restart and stop several times. It did not work. I did a Diagnostic Windows memory check and it went well. Also, I restarted Windows in Safe Mode and some other modes and received the same exact error message.

    Thanks in advance for your answers!

    Hello
     
    1. don't you make changes before the show?
    2. is the laptop connected to a domain or have you tried to connect to a domain?
    3. you have to any other user account on the laptop?

  • Gets the error in Windows Denfender for "the specified service does not exist as an installed device (error Code: 0 x 80070424).

    My computer was slow, so I tried to scan all using Windows Defender, and this error message keeps popping up, "the specified service does not exist as an installed device (error Code: 0 x 80070424) I don't know how fx this.» I' of love too see if there is another reliable computer, free softwear that can scan and virus scanning spywear.

    Hello

    Windows Defender is an antispyware software, not an Antivirus.

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_vista-security/how-do-i-manually-start-Windows-Defender-in-Vista/dab845b2-9ba5-47F3-9518-c4c6781e7d5b

    "Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.

    Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.

    Once modified, click apply and OK.

    Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"

    .

    And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:

    "How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

    http://netsquirrel.com/Msconfig/msconfig_vista.html

    Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

    "V11.21 Autoruns for Windows"

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    And try this method for the analysis of Malware

    Scan of Malware in Safe Mode with network.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-Windows-in-safe-mode/#Vista

    Windows Vista

    Using the F8 method:

    1. Restart your computer.
    2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with the Boot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
    3. Select the Safe Mode with networking with the arrow keys.
    4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
    5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
    6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

    Once in Safe Mode with network, download and run RKill.

    RKill does NOT remove the malware; It stops the Malware process that gives you a chance to remove it with your security programs.

    Then, download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:

  • Vista the specified domain does not exist or could not be contacted

    Hello

    I recently had problems with viruses etc on my computer and because of its extremely slow performance I want to re install windows vista to make it to its factory settings.  I use a laptop HP 530 which has a HP Backup and Recovery utility, which is able to reinstall windows by using the backup that is held on a separate partition.  My computer is not outside of a work group and I'm the only user on the computer with full administrator privileges.  I know also that the password of my account and mine is the only account set up on the system.
    However, when you attempt to reinstall Vista, when the computer restarts at the beginning I wonder put a username and password.  I tried to leave this blank, enter the username and password for my account and nothing else I can think of.  Annoyingly. I get the error message "the specified domain does not exist or could not be contacted" every time and so I am unable to reinstall windows because I can't get past.  I reinstalled windows in the past and never encountered this problem.  As far as I know that I did not recently, major changes on the system other than the elimination of viruses etc.
    If someone could help me with this, I would greatly appreciate!
