• Pavilion G6-1203ey: HDD Test FAILED, but can still start Windows

  Hello

  I have laptop HP Pavilion G6-1203ey. After installing Windows (7 ultimate, 64-bit) and some drivers on this topic and after several reboots, it hung at the Windows logo and I had to power off with the power button / stop. Then after having turned it on, it gave me the opportunity to fix problems that impede it to start, there let him to restore the computer to a previous restore point and after a reboot, the windows worked again. After that, I decided to do a check of the hard drive just in case.

  The hard drive self test ended up with a message: disk full 1 (305). Then, I installed an environment to help HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and made the hard drive from there. I chose the full test options, but it ended quite quickly (in about 1 minute), with the following result:

  Test Drive: 1

  HDD SMART Check: PAST

  Hard drive short DST: FAILURE

  FAILURE ID: PTTU22-5T774L-MFPV4K - 60S 003

  PRODUCT ID: A5Q15EA #B1R

  Hard drive 1

  __________________________________________

  Test drive: FAILURE

  A little more information:

  The former owner told me that the original HARD drive was defective, reason for which he replaced with this last year. He said that other than that, no problems with the laptop. Windows works right now and this disc is quite new, so I expect no problems with it, but the results of the tests mentioned above seem to be disturbing. Is there a reason to worry?

  Thank you

  Hi Alnuir,

  Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! 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.

  I read your post and looked into the ID of failure that you have published on the test runs DST failed. This error indicates a hard disk failure meaning that if it failed there could soon. If everything works I would be given for the backup of your data on a regular basis, just to be sure. You may have a local tech take a look at the hard drive to see how it is at the complete failure.

  Thank you

  Better to buy a new hard drive and replace it with this one and I install the new OS on it own?

  Does that mean ID failure? I need to replace with a new hard drive? If so can I buy a new hard drive and replace it only with myself?

  I did no other reviews but I want to first of all understand what it means to id of failure.

  Hello

  The hard drive is faulty defiantly and Yes should not replace. Failure ID is given, so if your laptop is under warranty you can give this to HP and it will then allow you the replacement

  Usually the instructions on how to replace the hard drive are in the manual of your computer that you will be able to get a copy on the HP site. You can also buy the HP installation media which will be operating system files on your for reinstall on the new hard drive.

  Hello

  303 error seems to indicate that the drive is defective and must be replaced - it is also compatible with your startup problem.

  If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disc replaced.

  If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

  If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, let me know.

• HDD self-test - Fail #1-04

  Hello
  I have Pavilion dv9000 series (dv9040eu), all of a sudden, I get the BSOD with impossible to mount the volume message, so I run disk hard test, which returned: # Fail 1-04

  What does this error mean?

  is there a place where I can read the explanations of the error associated with the HARD drive self test?

  I tried running chkdsk/r, but it keep saying "an unspecified error has occurred", also, I managed to get the most important files, with "BartPe" and "GetDataBack".

  Starting recovery console also causes the BSOD with message unmountable_boot_image...

  Any suggestions?

  Many thanks in advance...

  No, a car will be empty, but if you their Envoy the laptop and then they put the reader, they may then be able to do that, but I expect it to be cheaper to just order the recovery DVDs too and DIY.  Because the discs cost a lot of HP, I recommend only the recovery DVD from them and purchase the disc elsewhere.

• Pavilion Memory Test failed., ID 64W662-5066J2-XD7XGK-400V03 failure

  Crash... The BIOS memory test passes, but the HP Diagnostic memory test fails with the ID 64W662-5066J2-XD7XGK-400V03 failure.  Product ID VM298UA #ABA.  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Try the following.

  First, download the Memtest Image file (.) (ISO) on the following link.

  http://www.memtest.org/download/4.20/Memtest86+-4.20.ISO.zip

  It is a zipped file, if you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip.  Please note that If you have a 64-bit installation, download and install the Installer x 64 64-bit .msi on the link below.

  http://www.7-zip.org/

  Then, right-click on the zipped file, select Extract 7 - Zip, select the files and then click Ok.  Open the newly extracted folder to find the Memtest Image.

  Now, you will need to use an application like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank CD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.

  When you created the CD, shut down the laptop.  Tap the escape key when you rewind to enter the Boot Menu.  Insert the Memtest CD.  Select 'Options of Boot' (usually f9), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER to boot from the disc.

  At least 3-4 passes and see if errors are found.

  Kind regards

• Pavilion 2206TX: hard drive DST short test failed

  Hard drive DST short test failed.

  For a few days, my laptop is not starting.

  Run the diagnostics showed "hard drive DST short test failed.

  I removed the hard drive [brand Toshiba] and connected as an external drive to a Mac.

  I am able to access your hard drive and copy some content from it. So, it looks like a problem with the hard drive.

  Is this a problem with the connection of harrdisk to the motherboard or with the hard drive itself?

  Help, please.

  Hello
  
  Yes, you can use your friend recovery media in your. It should work.
  
  I'm not able to find a recovery media for your model of third-party vendors too.
  
  No, you can't create USB recovery by plugging the old drive as external references to another PC. You have to use HP application recovery manager supplied with your laptop and create a set. I think that you will not be able to do from a failing drive.

• Pavilion dv6t-6100: DST tests, running-in, System Tune Up and hard drive failed - which means ID failure?

  The above tests failed, and passed the SMART tests, memory and battery.  I had problems with a program so I rean these diagnoses.  Failure ID is 9LGDWX-5M984B-MFH15G-60SN03.  What is the code of failure?  If I need a new hard drive, how can I find out what you get it?

  Hello

  The error code 24 characters is a disk failure short self-test and would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

  The player at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

  750 GB hard drive for laptop.

  The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 70 of your & Maintenance Guide.

  Once this is done, simply use your recovery media to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - this is described in the document of HP here.

  Kind regards

  The hard drive failed the test and must be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If this is not the case, a laptop SATA hard detail can be used. Just be sure to get a quality at least equal the original in order to use recovery disks. It may be big, but not small ability more. For example if you have a 500 GB hard drive you can use a 750 GB hard drive, but not a 320 GB hard drive.

  If you need help for selection/replacement of the hdd post back with the complete model & product number as indicated on the Service tag on the bottom of the laptop.

  How can I find my model number or product number

  Hello

  Your laptop is listed as coming with a HARD drive from 640 GB, but given that there is little difference in cost, you can replace this with a 750 GB option.

  The player at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

  750 GB hard drive for laptop.

  The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 64 of your maintenance & Service Guide.

  ***************************************************************

  Regarding the reinstallation of the operating system, you can create your own installer of Windows 7 USB drive flash as follows.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  Using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below--these Images are of a very respected source (Digital River).

  Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

  Once completed, use the Microsoft Tool on the following link to create a USB bootable Windows 7 installer - you will need a 4 GB flash for this drive.

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

  When creating, tap away at the esc you key start Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Insert the Windows 7 flash player.  Select the Boot Options menu (usually f9).  Use the arrow keys to select the flash drive and press ENTER.

  If your laptop will boot from it, use the flash player to perform the installation, enter the activation key for Windows on the label of the COA in the request and once the installation is complete, use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want just a new installation of Windows 7 without the software load extra normally delivered with OEM installations.
