• change the hard drive in the Pavilion all-in - one ms228

  My hard drive has stopped working on my Pavillion ME 228 all in an office.   I found a replacement at a reasonable price.  I bought this computer in France a couple of years ago, it came with windows 7 family in french with a keyboard french azwerty.  Now, I have to change the hard drive is possible to put on Windows 7 'Ultimate' in English (I have the disc) and English qwerty keyboard would work on this subject?

  Any advice would be really appreciated.

  Yes, you can install Windows 7 Ultimate English and plug an English keyboard. It uses only a keyboard USB, right? Computers have no nationality... they will take the language of the hardware and software you install on them.

  If the computer did not come with Ultimate you will need a new key Code. You can install the English version of the Windows 7 level it came with (probably Home Premium) using your own key Code.

• Reinstalling Windows 8 (or 10) after replacing the hard drive

  I need to replace the hard drive on my Inspiron 13-5323.  It came with the factory "injected" Windows 8 on the motherboard. Subsequently, I've upgraded to 8.1 Windows, then Windows 10.  With no Windows disk and no product key, how can I reinstall Windows on the new drive?

  The product key is embedded in the UEFI BIOS, it will automatically be entered with Windows 8.1 (with update 2 media) or Windows 10 TH2 installation media. Follow the instructions here to download and create a Bootable USB (for UEFI BIOS):

• Replace the hard drive and OS re - install Inspiron One 2330

  Hello

  I had my all-in-one desktop Inspiron One 2330 for about 18 months.  I see serious problems with the hard disk, the system hangs, and the event log is full of HD playback errors.

  ePSA diagnosis shows code 200-0142 telling me to replace the hard drive.  The chkdsk utility runs and sometimes corrects problems and sometimes clean.  Such problems at low altitude, I'm surprised that I can start far enough away from launch internet explore and write this message.

  I called Dell support and they were kind enough kindness to send me the original floppy Windows 8.1 for the Inspiron 2330.  I have a disk hard solid state ready to install, and I saw a bunch of great videos from YouTube that explain how to open the case.  The HD swap is not a big deal, but I have a few basic questions.

  I know that many readers here know the answers.  Thanks in advance for help...

  1. If I install a blank HD in this installation media machine Dell recreates all of these crazy Dell partitions?  I have not of much use for them until I ran the diagnostic ePSA and it was extremely helpful.  I hope that you will tell me that if I do a fresh install, I get a new partition ePSA addition to 8.1 Windows on my replacement drive.

  2. I do not see why this machine won't support a SATA SSD SanDisk brand new instead the 1 TB hard drive that came with it.  Is it OK to use SSD drives in these Machines from Dell?

  3. have good links for the operating system Dell re - install procedure?  I will be installing Windows 8.1 on this drive.  Strangely I find no procedure to re - install step by step operating system.

  4. I have read that the activation key for Windows is now integrated into the motherboard of the machine somewhere.  Do I need to enter this key when I re-install?  I don't see all the stickers on my machine with the key.

  Thank you for your help,

  I finished the upgrade SSD in my Inspiron One 2330 with very little trouble.  Here are answers to the questions for those who find my post using original research.

  1. the Dell Windows 8 installation media disc does not any recovery disc partition, new, retail.  If you install fresh by booting from the DVD drive, you get a nice clean install of Windows 8 without any extras Dell.

  It seems that the diagnosis of ePSA is hosted on the motherboard of the system and not the hard drive.  I have had no trouble to boot in diagnostic mode to run tests of ePSA, even if I see any Dell diagnostic partitions.

  If you install fresh from Windows 8 media you definitely lose the Dell recovery partition.  No big loss.  It is a little strange to wait the software stored on the hard disk to help you recover problems with the same hard drive.  I'll just do another clean DVD media installation if this happens again.

  2. my SanDisk 256 Gb SSD is impressive.  It costs ~ $80 on Black Friday, and now my Dell Inspiron One 2330 boots in 9 seconds.  This is measured from fully powered down for the moment, I type my password to connect.  9 seconds - crazy fast.  Modernization of the best ever.

  3. my internet search found many useful message board posts, some web sites and blogs.  Unfortunately there is no official Dell Reinstall procedure that I could find.  The complete replacement of unplugging the power to see Windows 8 on the screen by using a new SSD was about 70 minutes.  I gathered the information I could find and guess the rest.  Worked for me.

  4 Windows 8 activation code is not necessary for a media of Dell Windows 8 re - install.  The installation process of Windows 8 should be reading the key out of the motherboard because I've never been invited to type one in.

  Here are a few other tidbits:

  5. the Dell Windows 8 media support I was sent by Dell wasn't Windows 8 and 8.1.  I spent more time pulling down of updates, restart and then installing Windows 8.1 on the app store that I did replace the hard drive.  Don't forget: some updates depend on other updates being present.  Really, you need to run the Windows update utility several times to get everything down.

  On the good side of things, my restarts are now long 9 seconds.  I have no problem whatsoever reset to any indication that the system needs to restart to complete the installation of an update.

  6. after obtaining my update to 8.1 Windows system, I installed all the latest drivers for the Inspiron One 2330, which could be downloaded from Dell.  This figure includes a BIOS update which has been a royal pain to apply.  To do this I had to create a start-up separated from 'BACK' USB key.  In fact, it is possible to create this rudimentary special boot using utilities downloaded from Dell drive.  Locate the "diagnostic Distribution Package (DDDP)".  Good luck with that.

  7 Dell backup and restore has been completely useless for the replacement of my SSD.  I have had two drives bootable USB thumb complete with full system backups, the backup restore and Dell refused to restore my data on my Virgin SSD drive.  The error message has complained that my new drive is too small.  It was laughable: my original hard drive was something like 95% of free space.

  8. There is a bonus in all this: by rebuilding your system using the original Windows 8 media, you get a nice fast machine without the excessive Dell bloat-ware.  I do miss the software pre-installed in all.  Glad to get rid of it in fact.

  The disk is probably not a problem when it comes to Windows 7 is. Problems with installing Windows 7 (material) are more likely to be the motherboard, processor, and memory. Software problems can also come to light.

  If your old drive is now just a paperwieght, while the new drive must be of the same type as the original, i.e. SATA or PATA (IDE). I use 'black' all WD SATA disks where I can because of the 5-year warranty, but they cost more. I don't know if there is any PATA WD drives available now, or what the guarantee is if there are.

  To install XP, you will need to use all media provided by Dell for this purpose, or contact Dell for replacements.

  Without having to install XP to download and run the Windows 7/8 upgrade advisor you will need to allow hardware and software research yourself.

  Hello

  This backup after pressing F11 is a HP backup option, not a Microsoft option.

  I suggest that you contact HP or ask their Support Forums.

  It's the normal advice I'd give to record data; but we have no idea of the State of your hard drive.

  Saving your files:

  You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

  Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.

• Problems with folder permissions after replacing the hard drive

  Hello

  Recently, I replaced the hard drive on my mac.  Already before the replacement, I got the files that I had locked.  Now I'm unable to open the file.  I get the error "the folder 'nom_de_dossier' can not be opened because you don't have permission to see its content".  I looked at the permissions for the folder and everything he says is fetch.  I ran a command in the Terminal and for one of the records in question, that's what I see-

  drwxr-x - 13 501 501 442 5 July 2013 MG

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Running OS X El Capitan

  10.11.4 version

  Try this first:

  Start the mac all holding the SHIFT key, it is slow, connection, and then select Restart from the Apple menu.

  When this does not help:

  Reset password utility in the recovery Partition:

  1. Restart your computer from the recovery partition.
  2. Open disk utility and run a repair permissions on your boot volume (in ElCapitan click the first aid tab). Once this completed, close disk utility. We do this for good measure.
  3. Open a Terminal from the Utilities menu. Type in resetpassword and select your user (NOT administrator system/root) account in the menu drop-down.
  4. Click on the Reset button at the bottom of the window ACL section and Reset the folder permissions.
  5. Exit the utility password and return to the main recovery menu.
  6. On your keyboard, press ⌘ + Q and restart your computer. It is very important that you don't hold down the power button to exit the recovery session, or the ACL Reset to occur.

• Satellite M110 - how to replace the HARD drive?

  Need to replace my hard drive because the original is f & % $ ed.

  I tried to connect the original hard drive from my other laptop via a USB cable to Sata, but it does not appear. You can feel it spinning. I was able to do a test of HARD drive on it and it failed in the Toshiba via a bootable CD. Since I can access the drive HARD to get to the recovery section, which is the best way to reinstall windows XP on it, so I can use the original XP key on the bottom of the laptop. As I know that you usually have the right version or OEM windows copy in order to use certain keys.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Would also be a Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD1600 8 MB 160 GB 2.5 "SATA Hard Drive fit for the Toshiba because they are all two SATA.

  Hello

  Your ad is a little confusing... What HARD drive you use in what book now?

  If you want to install the OS on your old/new HARD drive, so you can use t a converter USB SATA. Therefore, use it as internal drive HARD.

  In addition, a HARD of Western Digital drive would be appropriate due SATA port. :)
