• Win7 won't start no-Pavilion dv7-6059eo-a the hard drive failed? Contact HP?

  Hello

  I have already experienced some minor problems with my HP laptop, as crashes and freezes and error startup. Now, yesterday I came home vacation and discovered that my PC did "feel well" when I used it. Sound had been delayed and delayed, processes and programs froze frequently, including the Task Manager. I decided to just restart and went for a shower, half an hour later when I came back to my PC it was trying to close the session, without success. I used the power button to shut down physically, and when I tried to start it up, I was allowed to choose whether to start the PC normally or in "safe mode", as expected. I started normally and it has frozen on the 'Starting Windows' screen, the animation wouldn't even start.

  I waited several minutes for Windows to start and, eventually, windows cursor appeared on the screen, but it was obviously the wrong resolution (much bigger (and wider than what is proportional) and fuzzier than normal), then I got a blue background (However, this was not blue, it was like a wallpaper) and the come command prompt thingy indicating exactly what :

  I leave the PC for half an hour, and when nothing happened, except at the prompt closing itself, I rebooted, it the same way as last time. This time when start I had to choose between 'start Windows normally' and 'Start Startup Repair (recommended) '. I chose the option recommended and expected (because I used to get these before the crash too). But ultimately the same black screen and the enormous-too-big-cursor appeared, then he went blue and then the command line came, stating the same message as I wrote above.

  It is, essentially, as far as I got with the PC after the evening of yesterday and today. I also noticed wave, repetative sounds coming from inside the PC, looks like a frog, very very small is trapped inside. I tried the F8 menu at startup and chose to start in "safe mode" but there is no difference.

  Hello

  Error 303 would indicate a hard drive failure - this is also compatible with the freezing issues you describe leading up to this event.

  Your best option isto contact HP and arrange for the hard drive replaced under warranty.

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

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

• Question about reinstalling windows on a laptop that came with it, but the hard drive failed and had to be replaced.

  OK, until recently, the hard drive of my laptop couldn't, and I had to replace, no biggie, I really care about this laptop in any case. Then I threw ubuntu top and let it go from there. But recently, I wonder, if I could get windows again for her, for free. I am sure that it is not under warranty, but I could go and check of 90 percent. I have no back ups for it because it was cheap.

  Additional information:

  HP Pavilion G6-2235us

  Provided with Windows 8

  No backups.

  Yes, if the hard drive has been installed you can just catch a Windows ISO-8 8.1 is not available now and make an own Install.Then, if you have the sticker of the product key on the back of your laptop use the product key to activate. Devices with Windows 8 generally have incorporated in their BIOS product key and use the following tool to get the product key:

  Download the key tool produces OEM of Windows

  Then, you can use the key to activate. In the meantime, here is the link to download windows ISO 8.1 and generate the installation media

• After replacing the hard drive failed to load Windows Vista due to CD drive problem

  Original title: new hard drive

  My hp pavilion dv6700 crashed to its hard drive. I put a new and need to load the operating system vista on it. The cd-rom does not work. I have an external cd drive. What should I do?

  Hello

  «I use the three recovery DVDs I've done everything first, when I bought the laptop Pavilion dv6904ca /HP /.»  And I suspect that they are not good for some reason any. Even if I did so that I have them stored in a safe and proper manner, they were probably unnecessary since the beginning. »

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Portege 7010CT - no hard drive recognized

  Hi all

  I have a Portege 7010CT, I want to use to drive my modeltrain, because it has a RS-232 connection. The problem is however it doesnot recognize the hard drive more. I bought a new one that works fine in another laptop but when I put it in Portege said with the installation of Windows that no hard drive is detected.

  Looking in the Bios, it also says that no hard drive is configured. I can't however in the Bios to change this. East - auto detection? What can I do to make the Portege recognize the hard drive? Thanks for help.

  Greetings Willem

  Hey, Willem.

  As far as I know this old notebook used hard drives with IDE interface. Normally, on all hard drives with this interface, you have a rider where you can switch between Master, Slave and Cable Select.

  I recommend you to check this. Set the switch to Master and try again.

• HP Pavilion G6 HARD drive failed

  Hello

  First of all thank you for help out me.

  I searched the forums for how to do this, but for my situation, I can't find an answer. I'm ok with the technology, but by no means a tech guru... Here's what I've done so far:

  History:

  My sister gave me her cell phone on the weekend and said that he cannot start Windows 8. So I tried a lot of things so he can start and have failed. I tested the hard drive and it says that there are errors on this subject. I tried to use a Ubuntu Livecd to capture data off and have problems, but I'll be able to get most of it.

  Problem:

  I need to replace the hard drive and she never made the recovery discs. What is my best course of action at this point?

  1. Can I reproduce the hard drive failed on a new and hope the recovery partition intact? Restore from that?
  2. Can I install from disc OEM of Windows 8? I don't think I can...
  3. Can I get the key of Windows 8 from the BIOS somehow or I'll have to grab something like belarc to and hope that I can enter the key of the HDD failure?

  Any other suggestions on how to do it? I rather just use an OEM drive with his key and install from scratch, but I need the key and I don't know if it will work?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  There are two options available.

  1. you can order a set of replacement of the recovery media using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  2. If the laptop is originally shipped with Windows 8, the activation key is stored in the Bios Chip and is read automatically during installation, so you could create your own OEM of Windows 8 install disc.

  For more information on how to proceed, see the post by Hüffer 3rd on the following link - Note: there is a cap of this Image file download you may need to try over a period of a few hours before the download starts correctly.

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-hardware/need-product-key/m-p/2592099/highlight/false#M96668

  With regard to creation of installation media for this file, here are some options.

  If you want to create an installation disc, use an application like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn offerings)- hereis a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc.

• DV6-6119wm: HP Pavilion dv6-6119wm - replace the hard drive with a hard drive from a laptop Gateway

  OK (deep breath). I have a dilemma, and I hope that you all can help me.

  First of all, the HP laptop in question is a dv6-6119wm QE069UA #ABA, Windows 7 Home Premium.

  A month ago, it began overheating and then blue screened on me with a fan error. I ran it while I was getting this error, which was a mistake, because according to me, he has finally caused the hard drive failure after enforcement of reset factory several times. But I'm getting ahead.

  I replaced the fan and the heatsink myself. Another factory reset. Downloaded and installed all the updates of windows. Ran great for like a week with the exception of the fault 1 hard disk when I ran the Start Up Test.

  Then when I restarted yesterday... He's dead, so he is dead.  Apparently, the hard drive failed completely and comes only a black screen telling me it cannot start.

  So, I have this other model of Gateway laptop, NV55C26u which has stopped charging. I had to put it away and don't worry. I got out the hard drive and tried HP successfully. ! Sorta.

  It considers that the HP is a gateway and as a result, none of the drivers are there for all the good stuffs HP. It cannot connect to the internet and does not recognize the USB flash drive. (I had downloaded all the drivers on another laptop and put them on a pious flash drive I could convince the hard drive it's HP again). Another hard drive WILL work in the dv6, and I had no errors on startup it upward.

  I have no recovery discs or store bought Windows 7, all came with the laptop preinstalled. But I don't have my key to the label.

  Then what should I do? I'm not exactly tech savvy, I know just enough to be dangerous haha, but I tend to go glassy when things get too technical. I thought I could get something Microsoft to reinstall my Windows but I guess they closed this path down a few months ago.

  I have access to 2 other laptops, both HP. A QE304UA of Pavilion G7 #ABA with Windows 7 Home Premium and a HP 250 G2 Portable F7V84UT #ABAwith Windows 7 Professional.

  So basically in order to encapsulate this novel to the top, which can do here to fix my dv6? How can I convince this other HDD HP rather than Gateway? I can create something from one of these other HP laptops? Download something somewhere? I don't want to have to buy Windows again. I love this phone and need her in my life as a game.

  Please help me

  You must do a clean install of Windows on them. The hard drive has drivers for completely different material. Too bad that you did not have your drive to retrieve the value. It would restore the hard drive to HP with all the drivers/software installed. It would depend if the hard disk is at least the same capacity or larger than the original. Recovery discs are reluctant to a smaller capacity hard drive.

  You can order recovery Medai for about $16:

  ==================================

  If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version must match that's installed on your PC as shown on the sticker COST Microsoft fixed on the bottom of the laptop. Like Windows Home Premium.

• Hard Drive failed after replacement

  My computer recently went for a drive hard repalcement of HP Support because it is still under warranty. After that their return receipt I'm gone and ran the same test that tells the hard drive failed the last time and received a fault code of

  GGANWC-67H6K8-XD7X1F-60SF03

  It looks like the last. Is this a Bios problem causing the hard drive give errors or is it another failed hard drive?

  Hello TheProfitible,

  You just had the HARD drive replaced and now you've found a similar mistake that he does not have.

  The code checks that the HARD drive has failed.

  You should call HP and have them replace the disc again and check the motherboard. It could be a problem with the motherboard failure.

  Sorry to hear it happened.

  Here is the link for the phone number for HP.

  By clicking on the White Star congratulations on the left is a way of saying thanks!

  I would like to know how everything goes.

  Nice day.

• Bad sectors on the hard drive; help to isolate or repair

  Hello, recently I discovered that my windows get to slump that closely mimics a gel at a random time. After a lot of research on this topic, I did several diagnostic tests on my laptop and finally reduced to my hard drive.
  The problem is evident for the following reasons:
  • When I tried to run chkdsk/r/f, which is always translated by he stuck to "step 4: check the data in the file" around 70%.
  • When the slowdown occurs, the resource monitor from Task Manager for the disk activity showed 1 KB/s (not sure if this is suspicious)
  • Tried various hard drive diagnostic tools. WinDLG gets blocked for a certain sector, but has never even if I waited for 6 h +. SeaTools for DOS has reported that the hard drive failed the tests. Dell diagnostic tool also pointed out the hard drive, is not the test of confidence in some sectors. Toshiba Diagnostics tool did not work as I could not highlight the readers so he could test.
  Formally, this means that I have bad sectors on the hard drive and I want to know if there are solutions to 'fix' or isolate him rather than replace the hard drive. The hard drive is only a year old and I would like to get as much time as I can with the drive without having to spend on a new.
  In addition, I also came to this post here which seems to reflect the same situation:
  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-performance/trying-to-fix-Chkdsk-from-freezing-at-stage-5-of-5/b8b8d748-3b50-4cff-9a28-9469fcfa3b97?page=1&TM=1325413573002
  However, there are a few parts where I am confused and does not really apply to my situation (for example, meanwhile his stage 5, for me its stage 4). Thanks in advance for any help.

  CHKDSK does not indicate a failing hard drive, it indicates problems with the filesystem (NTFS.sys) hard disk.  I like to repeat because that may indicate more out of trouble (if you get several times CHKDSK repair things, then something else is the cause).

  That's what I'm looking for:
  "Windows has made corrections to the file system."
  Know me mistakes.

  DO NOT use the drivers from the resource CD.  They are overwhelmed when you get them.  Go to the Dell support site and download the latest versions here.

  Unfortunately, unless your highly qualified with a soldering iron on small electric parts, then there is no replacement of the part.  Also unfortunately, there is no test for a motherboard problem, so we have to everything else on the rule.

  If it passes all the tests, it indicates that it passed all tests.  All these tests are software - they can not physically 'see' a hardware problem, but can deduct that it based on the results of the tests.

  I suggest you a few additional tests before start thinking that it's the mobo.  They are Prime95 test and tests stress CPU at this link: http://www.carrona.org/hwdiag.html

  I also suggest another facility 'clean' - just to be sure.  Here's what I propose for a clean install:
  [quote]
  For testing purposes, it is best to install Windows "clean".
  It is, basically, install the way that Microsoft intended (with the drivers from Windows Update).
  This procedure is for Windows 7, Vista is similar (but has 2 service packs)

  You will need your installation/recovery DVD (s) before you start.  Once you wipe the hard drive, there is no going back!

  1 back up all your data.
  It will wipe everything off of your hard drive, so what you want to keep should be backed up elsewhere.

  [b] [u] NOTES: [/ b] [/ u] If this is due to an infection, remember to analyze the data with current antivirus to another system to locate and remove malware.

  2. connect the system to the internet (if the system shows then disconnect from the Internet, do).

  3. use one of these free utilities to wipe the hard drive:
  DBAN (http://www.dban.org/download)
  KillDisk (http://www.killdisk.com/downloadfree.htm).
  This will remove also any partition system - then the intallation/recovery recovery DVD are essential!

  4. install Windows by booting from the installation/recovery DVD - [b] [u] DO NOT change any settings! [/ u] [/ b]

  5 visit Windows Update and get all updates

  6 visit Windows Update and download the Service Pack 1 (normally under important updates).  Read these notes for installing SP1: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2505743

  7 visit Windows Update and get any other available updates

  8. check device for all unknown/disabled devices Manager - if there are unknown disabled devices, secure them with the latest drivers from the website of the manufacturer of the device (not the PC manufacturer)

  9 download, install and update a free antivirus, so it does not get infected during the test (http://www.carrona.org/freeav.html).

  [u] if problems persist [/ u], the problem is probably with your hardware.

  [b] [u] warning: [/ u] [/ b] If you have an Asus motherboard, check the date on the file C:\Windows\System32\driver\ASACPI.sys.  2004/2005 is a problem, 2009,2010 is OK.  Updates are available on the Web from Asus site.

  [b] [u] warning: [/ u] [/ b] If you have a Sony system, make sure that you do NOT have the 2007 version (or earlier) Extension of Firmware of Sony Analyzer (SFEP.sys).  To update this driver immediately!

• Return code from the hard drive 7

  It is a problem with my friends - a Dimension 3100 desktop, so I apologize if details aren't here.

  The Office was working perfectly until about a week ago. One day, when my friend made a blue screen of death was presented, so he tried another couple of times without success with the same blue screen showing up at startup.

  So I activated yesterday and tried to let this startup in windows, strangely windows worked well without error or whatever.

  I then tried by pressing F12 at startup and run diagnostic tests. He then told me the hard drive failed (Return Code 7).

  After a bit of "Googling" seems to me the average return code 7 hard drive failure. The strange part is that windows now it works as if nothing ever happened.

  Does anyone know what is the problem?

  Did that mean it's time to buy a new hard drive?
