Pavilion Office c 550-047: desktop HP Pavilion nine shows drive D as almost complete (2.43 GB free 19 GB)

I just set up my new 550-047c Pavilion desktop that I bought at Costco. "My computer" shows that the recovery Image (drive D) has only 2.43 GB 19 GB free. I haven't used this computer much at all, is not a lot of navigation. This doesn't seem fair.

Please explain.

Hello:

What you see is completely normal.

Drive D:\ is the recovery partition, and it was only performed large enough at the factory to accommodate the recovery files needed to restore your PC to its State 'out of the box.

Never store other files on that partition.

  • HP Pavilion 550-177c Desktop: power supply HP Pavilion 550-177c desktop PC

    Hello. Bought HP Pavilion 550-177c Desktop and wanted to ask if it is compatible with the European power outlets? Thank you.

    Hello

    Yes, in the USA, they use 110V.

    • Almost all mobile devices (laptops, phones, tablets) can use the power of 110V to 240V automatically but
    • Not for desktop computers this is why we need to check. Plenty of feed for desktop computers can work from 110V to 240V, BUT we have to switch manually .

    Kind regards.

  • Pavilion 15-P203AU: D: DISK SPACE almost sold out on NEW Pavilion Notebook

    Hi, I just bought a laptop Pavilion. When I checked the drivers and devices, I noticed that I have only 2.77 GB on 24.7 GB of free space on RECOVERY [D]. Is this normal? The D drive should be THAT complete the first DAY of use?

    I don't know a thing about this area of computers & would be very grateful if you can keep the very simple answer.

    Also, when I bought the computer, that he was sold me as having 725 gig of memory, the Windows disk [C] is showing 633 GB remaining 672 GB remaining. Have I been misled on the memory card?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Yep, that is correct of all the other files will be stored on drive C, this disc is simply used for recovery files it will get more or less complete, it will stay the same, no matter the age, your PC is.

  • HP Pavilion s5570t desktop computer: single SATA hard drive configured as RAID in BIOS

    Our small computer lab has two offices of Pavilion Slimline s5570t that we have recently upgraded to Windows 10. I noticed that in the configuration of the BIOS for the SATA hard drive, it is defined as RAID. I don't know why. The thing that brought this to my attention, is that the software Intel Rapid storage technology constantly shows about 25% CPU use and there high usage of the disk when computers start first which makes them unusable until the software installs.

    My question is can I change the setting of the BIOS SATA AHCI with no problems and that will solve the problem? The Intel rapid storage technology software version is v9.5.7.1002. It is obviously old and I could update, but I wonder if the real issue is the BIOS setting.

    Thank you

    JohnD

    Thank you for the additional information.

    I'm not sure it tells you, but I changed these settings without having to reinstall the operating system.  I suppose it could be correct.

  • Desktop a6530f Pavilion, new hard drive and upgrade to Windows 7

    I have a desktop Pavilion a6530f with Vista.  My hard drive has been the production of errors, so I bought a new hard drive.  The original hard drive works pretty well as I should be able to create a recovery with a usb flash drive media.  I want to install the new hard drive (Seagate 1 TB SATA 3), and then install Windows 7 upgrade on the new drive.  Will be the ASUS M2N68 - LA / Narra3-GLBE motherboard supports SATA 3 (SATA 2 pilot courses)?  If Yes, where can I get the drivers?  Is there a Web page on the HP site for upgrade to Windows 7 on a new hard drive?  Or I just follow the guests after boot of the Windows 7 upgrade disc and enter the code of Vista product from the label on the side of the PC?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion a6530f. Based on the specifications, this model shipped from the factory with Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit installed. This model supports the use of disks SATA 3, however transfer speeds will be limited to the rates for the motherboard SATA 2. No special drivers are required. Seagate 1 TB SATA 3 drive should work fine on this computer, but you may have problems using your HP recovery discs if the new drive is a Format "Advance" AF drive.

    It is unlikely that you will be able to create a recovery media on a USB FlashDrive with this computer. In my view, that this model only supports the creation of recovery DVDs.

    You have a choice of a couple of paths when it comes to the installation of Windows on your computer with a new hard drive installed.

    (1) use your HP Vista recovery disks to install Vista... This may or may not work depending on the new hard drive installed. Then, upgrade to Windows 7 using the upgrade disc and the Windows 7 product key printed on the certificate of authenticity provided with the Windows 7 upgrade disk. (Note: the key of Vista with Windows 7 will not work)

    (2) If you don't mind losing the "value-added" software HP originally installed on the computer, you can install Windows 7 without using Vista installed first. Install Windows 7 using the upgrade disc and the Windows 7 product key printed on the certificate of authenticity provided with the Windows 7 upgrade disk. (Do not enter the key during the installation of the window) (Note: the key of Vista with Windows 7 will not work)

    In both cases just follow the prompts as needed. I suggest to use Windows 7 SP1, because it seems to be more compatible with the new material, including readers of the AF.

    Please see HP - upgrade to Windows 7 customer care using basic upgrade or install Windows 7. Please see HP Forum - how to install Windows 7 without the disc for useful information and download for Windows 7.

  • Want to 750 - xt 550 (CTO): Desktop problems Bang and Olufsen Sound of 750 - xt HP Envy with the brand-new office

    I bought a new system and it arrived yesterday, in the introduction, I have a 5.1 speakers Creative Labs system (which worked perfectly in my previous HP media center PC) I'm connected (using the catch green, black and Orange on the back of the system).  Using the Bang and Olufsen 'test' feature, I hear from "front speakers' (green connector), the Center and the subwoofer (Orange wire) no sound from the surround speakers (black wire).  The sound is HORRIBLE, roaring, low volume, just horrible.

    If I pass the black cable (surround) at the entrance to white (side speakers) I can hear the sound on the 5 speakers, it's always horrible and very, very disappointing!  I spent over 4 hours on the phone last night with HP Support who told me, in conclusion, that my system does not support sound 5.1, I will be able to use Stero (i.e., the Green connector).  My number is 3023344605, the discussion was just a mess.

    Can somone suggest please how can I get my sound working properly?

  • Pavilion 550-254-112na: Broken data on hard drive WD blue port

    The data port broke on the hard drive. Y at - it a British supplier for a new pcb 2060-771945-002? I can only find overseas with extended delivery. As I have only owned this computer for 2 weeks, I want to make it work again. I know I can get traded locally of the bios chip if necessary. Much dg_hlc thanks

    Hi @dg_hlc!

    Personally, I would say to get a new drive if possible because the problems related to the card of the unit are not easy to solve.

    Of course, you can try to replace it if you want, but I do not recommend. I'm not saying it, not only because it is an operation not caring and not recommended in general, but especially because the risk to damage further the drive is too big and that the chances of finding an exact match of a PCB are really weak because of differences in the firmware over the years.

    The danger is that it can () will have different settings for how align the heads to the tracks on the surface of the physical disk, and when it tries to write anything (which it will) it will result in all current data is erased.

    I hope this helps and good luck!
