• Install the operating system after replacing the corrupted hard drive Asus q500a

  The hard drive on my Asus Q500a is bad (he had checked the repairman). They told me that I could replace it (it will just keep failing until at last it dies just) but I have to re - install the operating system. The laptop comes with Windows 7 and I upgraded to 8 when it came out (I think). I don't have a recovery disk.

  How can I replace the corrupted hard drive and re-install the operating system?

  If I need to buy Windows 8, where can I find?

  Would it not easier that I left the repair shop handle it?

  Thank you in advance.

• has had to replace the internal hard drive! need help!

  Hi, laptop HP HDX - 1056CA

  My internal hard drive is totally dead after 2 years (warranty expired), and I had to replace it. I dropped in the new hard drive. But I don't know what are my next steps

  Do I really need to refer to the recovery discs - and they will work on a new hard drive? -I don't mind send away if that's what is needed, but I can't recover my old data, I hope that I can just download the drivers and leave with the machine... (also I go to work on Monday for 2 weeks at an oil rig, records will not be here in time and I won't be able to stay in touch with my friends and my family like the network is very limited as to what we can access if the computers in the Organization).

  can I use my desk top of the page to download and burn the recovery discs? can someone link me to the right place (HP HDX16 - 1056CA).

  My other question is that I have upgraded to windows 7 from Vista, when I ask to do recovery disks I have ask for the vista version and upgrade again (will be microsoft / the computer accepts the only time only upgrading key again?)  or should I go for the version of windows 7?  I need to re install the windows original vista and then switch again to win7, being that the computer has been configured for vista before the upgrade.

  Thank you very much for any help or insight people can give me! I really appreciate it!

  Hi all

  I had a BBQ and three guests oil and gas software and refused to feed them until thelaptop has been fixed.

  They threw the XP disc across the room and were able to start the player directly at the exit of the disk upgrade of windows 7 using the Custom Installation option.

  I'm afraid I can't give you more information, others that there is no need to first load the XP or the use of the USB box with the zip file in in order to recognize that the new installation drive.

  Thanks everyone for all the help offered here here.

• HP Pavilion 14-b017cl: follow-up on creating and using the USB key recovery to win 8 after replacing the bad hard drive

  I have 2 hp pavillion sleekbook model 14-b017cl'. I replaced the hard drive in my son after that she doesn't have the "optimized hard drive dst test '. I used my sleekbook work to create a USB stick recovery. I followed the instructions to use the recovery to Win 8 usb drive. When I started the laptop of my son, with the USB stick inserted, I got this message.

  PXE - m0f: exit pxe rom

  no bootable device-insert bootdisk and press a key

  Flash player Flash when I put under tension. I rebooted, you press F2, conducted an audit on the new hard drive, happened.

  Later, I inserted the recovery key in my laptop (that I used to create it) and it would not initialize to top. I checked the content to the flash drive and they seemed "Chargers", so it seems to be what I expected. It seems that the recovery USB STICK will not work if my own laptop dies. What I have to buy the HP flash drive, or I'm doing something wrong.

  Hi @gretschman7,

  Thank you for your query.

  I understand you are trying to perform a recovery from a USB flash drive, but you get the error "pxe - m0f: exit pxe rom.

  "no bootable device-insert bootdisk and press any".  You check the recovery media on your laptop as it is the same model and it seems fine.

  Looks like you may need to change the boot sequence. Here is a link to HP - performing a recovery system (Windows 8) HP computers that will help you.   Here is a link to a YouTube video which can also help:.  Performing a recovery of HP system on a laptop HP with Windows 8.

  for the readers of plateau...

  You can use any 2.5 ", height 9.5 mm SATA drive. I got one for hitachi travelstars (now owned by western digital), which were originally ibm. others have all also good luck with (and loyalty towards) other brands. Choose your ability, the speed, the size of the cache, etc. of many online merchants have a good selection.

  for SSDS.

  same features as physical size above. you will need to do research in reliability, chip controller oddities, etc., but they get a lot more reliable. they need it another type of disaster recovery plan, however, as failure means no data is salvageable I heard. with top readers, depending on the type of failure, some recovery is generally possible without resorting to expensive professional services.

  for both types of readers, you should be able to use disks of 7 mm of height also long as you install the drive in the case of existing drive and use rubber track. This maintains alignment connector with the drive Bay.

  HTH.

• REPLACING THE INTERNAL HARD DRIVE.

  Hello

  I have a laptop ACER Aspire V3 - 771G - 53234G 75 can.

  Some time ago, I added a Crucial M500 (120 GB SATA 6 GB/s - 2.5 ") SSD internal next to drive HARD WD Blue (750 GB SATA 6 GB/s - 2.5"-5400 RPM) for the operating system (Windows 8.1) and other software. Works very well.

  Is it a good idea to replace the HARD drive with my documents, photos, etc. by another drive HARD internal with a higher rotation speed now, or which is better (?), by another internal drive flash SSD (and if so, can recommend me?)?

  Thanks in advance for your advice.

  Best regards.

  I like the Crucial MX100, MX200, Samsung 850EVO, Samsung 850 Pro, Kingston Hyperx Savage, Hyperx 3 K.

  These are all great SSDs.Try Amazon (free shipping) and Newegg.

• How to replace the internal hard drive and continue with existing Time Machine backups

  I have a time Machine airport TB 3 attached to the Ethernet port on my mid-2010 MacBook Pro 7.1. It has a 1 TB internal SSD I want to use Carbon Copy Cloner to a 2 TB OWC drive. The last time I did it, I had to start my Time Machine backups.

  
  

  Is it possible to find 1 the UUID the new SSD, and 2-implementation to date, some sort of Time Machine (perhaps with TMUTIL) 3 information - should allow continuity with the existing backups?

• How can I reinstall windows 7 after replacing the hard drive?

  How can I reinstall windows 7 after replacing the hard drive? do I have to call microsoft or I can retrieve it somehow to the old hard drive?

  Well, that certainly puts a different point of view on this subject.

  There are data recovery services that can recover data from disks that have suffered from various types of failures. However, they are quite expensive. Unless the data is particularly useful, it is generally not useful.

  If your Windows 7 is an OEM version, installed on the computer when you bought it, the manufacturer could have a recovery disk on sale. If it was a retail copy and you always have the appropriate product/serial number, you can get a DVD of their team of parts replacement.

• the internal HARD drive has been corrupted and I fails to make the back upward. need information.

  I've owned an HP Pavilion dm1-LQ862PA #UUF, used to be windows 7-64 bit. the internal hard drive has been corrupted and recommended to replace another. they were asking for the backup cd and I failed to do, and I do not regret it. Well, except to lose all my files and programs that I installed, it will also include bluetooth, wi - fi and other important built in programs? I'm not a computer expert. If ever these important programs had totally disappeared, how retrieve it? my laptop in an HP authorized service center will be probably expensive and I decided to buy a new HARD drive and ask someone to put it in and install a new OS. Please help thanks

  Hello:

  There is a support for your PC page where all the software drivers to run the hardware on your PC such as bluetooth and wireless can be reinstalled.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/WC/product?product=5079502 & CC = US & DLC = in & LC = on & query = LQ862PA & Tool=.

  What I don't see is the availability of recovery disks to reinstall the operating system (windows 7 64-bit) or your PC programs (other than those listed in the link of support above).

  This means that if you want to replace the hard drive, you must make your own W7 64-bit installation media and use the 7 product key of Microsoft windows on the bottom of your PC to activate the installation.

  That assumes you can read all 25 characters of the product key windows 7.

  Here's how...

  If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

  Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

  Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

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

  Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  The replacement hard drive should be a 320 GB SATA II 5 400 rpm Disk If you want the same specification provided with your PC hard drive.

  Please refer to Chapter 4 of the service manual on the link below for the procedures for removal and replacement of the hard disk.

  My computer crashed two weeks ago and all software had reinstalled in another HD. The first hard drive still has all the files and are readable. Where can I find the old catalog fall back all my work?

  My lightroom was great before the crash to work and I have a lot of work still pending.

  You will need the catalog file and all your images. If you have also stored your images on which crashed HDD you will need to copy them as well.

• Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

  I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro

  The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

  http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=IG0lW7t92bI

  BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

  WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

  Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

  + The message was edited: link has been removed ad channel may not +.

  Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
  Be careful about this.

• Replaced the faulty hard drive

  Hello

  I replaced the defective hard drive on my Presario CQ61 - upgrade to a 500G SATA drive.  Booted up the system repair disc, I created when I bought the computer.  I ask myself a lot of questions about the folder in which to select.  I assumed it would happen automatically.

  Can anyone help please?

  Assuming that you are referring to Windows 7, there is a good guide on the link below for the present - to ensure that if the Disk Image is saved on an external HARD drive, that it is connected before starting.

• PC tries to boot from external USB instead of the internal hard drive at startup

  Hi, I just took delivery of a refurbished Pavilion p6793. I noticed that the system does not boot if I have my external USB drive connected. It happens with one cannot find the message of charger and asks me to hit ctrl-alt-del to restart. I suspect it's because it's the search for the o/s on USB instead of the internal hard drive. Can you tell me what I need to check and change to allow me to boot from the hard drive even if the drive is connected. Thank you.

  Hello:

  You should probably go into your BIOS by pressing F10 at HP welcome screen and changing the options in the start for the HDD menu start the first.

  Then you can set the boot for other devices as you order please.

  Make sure that you save your settings, where you made the change, and again when you go out.

  When you specifically want to start on a device, press the F9 key to the HP welcome screen and you will be presented with a single boot options menu where you can choose from any one of the bootable devices listed.
