• Failed to retrieve after replacing the hard drive on my DV6

  I replaced the hard drive on my DV6.  Insert the recovery discs, I had done and went through the process.  At the end it rebooted and was told that he failed.  Says to put 1 recovery disc in and try again, but just a loop even message.

  Hello

  Assuming that it's just a problem with the recovery media, here's another solution, you can try.

  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.

  You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself 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 ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software offerings when you install ImgBurn) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• 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. :)

• Replace old hard drive with an SSD.  Nowsome keys on the keyboard no longer works.  Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work?  Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?

  Replace old hard drive with an SSD.  Now some of the keys on the keyboard stopped working.  Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work?  Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?

  Probably nothing, it's probably a fluke. Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM by iMac Intel SCM and reset the PRAM. If this does not work, try a USB keyboard to test, if it works then your original keyboard has failed and must be replaced.

  Hello

  First of all, if it's any help, it is a guide (including a video preview) to replace the HARD drive of your PC at the following link.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01882178

  Note:  It is best to replace the HARD drive with one of equal capacity as the drive that you are replacing to avoid possible problems if you decide to use recovery disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Regarding the 2 options, you must reinstall the operating system, you must only choose 1 of them - a brief description is detailed below.

  Recovery using recovery disks.

  Use these disks to reinstall the operating system on your new drive will return your machine for the exact conditions, he was at the time of purchase - that is to say, you will have to reinstall all programs etc that you added later and all Windows updates.  A guide on this procedure can be found on the link below.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01867418

  Recovery using a system image.

  This option will return your machine to the exact state it's in when the Image has been created - that is to say, it will contain all your installed programs, updates of windows, files, persoal etc.  When you created the Image of the system, you should have been prompted to create an at the end of the process system repair disc (if you haven't, let me know because there is an option to download available).

  To reload an Image of the system at the new disk, you must start the PC from the from the system repair disc, select 'Repair your computer' and follow the method 3on the link below to load the Image.

• Notice - the upgrade to Windows 7 after replacing the hard drive

  I am replacing the failed hard drive in my Presario V6305NR & considering the upgrade to 2 GB of Ram.  Should I try to reload Vista or can I switch to a new total installation of Windows 7?

  If the upgrade to Windows 7 is feasible, how & what problems can be expected?

  1-Yes, the next step I would try is remove the card and start once without him.

   

  2 - Yes, there were numerous reports of failure wireless and/or the chip Nvidia dv graphics and v made two or three years before. Unfortunately, most of the people seems to result from the motherboard. There is even an American in effect now colony for many models (US). www.nvidiasettlement.com  

• Can not recover the Windows 7 desktop after replacing the hard drive

  I bought a new HP Pavillion Elite (HPE-240f) in August 2010. A week ago my hard drive has no SMART short self-test during systematic hardware diagnostics. I installed a new hard drive of the same size - 1 TB and could never make it work properly. I tried the following (in that order).

  1. using a system repair disc, I got the system from a previous image (which I did shortly after the purchase, install my own software and configuration of all). It worked, but then I noticed that Windows Update was not working. I ran various Microsoft diagnostic tools and discovered that some (unspecified) system files have been damaged or missing. All the fixes I tried didn't work. I ran hardware diagnostics extended, but no problem not found.

  2. I tried to restore the system to the default settings by using the original image on the D partition. At first it seemed to work, but at the last moment when the system started, I saw a message on the screen that Setup is starting services and then got a warning saying that services failed because of (unspecified) problems with hardware.

  3. I tried to restore the system from the system recovery discs and a message "system recovery disks do not support this computer."

  4. I found this Cyberlink utility on the HP website, dealing with precisely this issue. I created a CD tried and it didn't work.

  5. I found this document on the HP Web site, saying that if you are replacing a hard drive with sectors of 512 bytes with a new advanced Format (AF) drive (with areas of 4 096 bytes) and your system was manufactured before October 2010 (as mine was), you must get the new HP recovery disks. I thought I finally found the root of my problems (since the new drive is indeed AF and the old man is not) and ordered HP recovery discs.

  6. the disks arrived today, and I noticed that the version number of the software (for Windows 7 version) is almost the same as on the computer, except that the last digit is 9 on disks and 6 on the computer - I guess it's an update to deal with the problem hard drive AF. However, I get 'system recovery disks do not support this computer' error, if I use the utility from CyberLink recovery disks or not. To be on the safe side, I even used a new hard disc (new 1 TB) right out of the box (never partioned and installed previously) and connected the original keyboard supplied with the computer (I also unplugged everything except the monitor, keyboard and mouse). However, I get the same message. Just out of curiosity I tried to put back the original hard drive (certainly not in best shape, even if the system always starts with him) and still could not recover the system.

  What else can I try?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  An alternative to try. > If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key attached to the Tower, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD. The version must match that on the sticker COST Microsoft. for example Home Premium

   

• Help, I need to replace my hard drive in my hp pavilion a6863w how can I do this?

  The surface of the hard drive, test and get the test failed, a seagate 2 TB SSHD. I want to install it and I'm sure that I can do, but I need to know if I should leave the wrong disc in and just add this one, if I do this will it take all other cables, if yes, I'd rather just old-fashioned.
  I have the recovery install disks that I made when I bought first. I used these b4 to reinstall.

  I just need to know the steps if I add the 2nd disc or steps (if I need a cable) to replace the old disk with a new disk. This player would be my boot drive? When I ask for the steps, I'm more concerned about turning off the computer and what is it I have unplugged, etc.. Then once the new drive up, just run the recovery discs or y at - it an easier way?
  I tried to run a backup, but he stopped and wouldn't let me. I have all my important things like photo movies already saved etc.

Remove the old drive, replace it with a new one and use the set of recovery disks. Choose factory image recovery.

Put the new drive in the same place as the old one and use the same cables (data and power) who were connected on.

• Can I replace the hard drive of my HP HDX16-1140US with this hard drive hybrid?

  Hello. I run the SMART test on my hard drive (500 GB) and he said that it was about to fail quickly. I would like to replace my hard drive with this one:

  http://www.Amazon.com/Seagate-Momentus-solid-hybrid-ST95005620AS/DP/B003NSBF32

  Is this possible? What are some other drives to consider?

  www.crucial.com is a utility that will scan your system and give recommendations for upgrading your RAM and hard drive based on your specific system. You can check for the tough they recommend then go back to Amazon and buy if you don't like their prices.

  Make sure that you back up everything before you install the new hard drive. If your computer is equipped with recovery disks or if you have the opportunity to make some, do it before the death of your hard drive. You use to install the operating system on the new drive, or you can purchase the commercial version of any OS you need to reinstall.

  Hello

  Browse the following documents carefully & follow him.

  Test a HDD in BIOS ; Laptops HP - how to run the hard drive Test

  Hard disk failure errors

  Test the hard drive by using SMART

  Normally the HP disk HARD Selft Test works well, but the information stored in S.M.A.R.T indicates that your HARD drive will fail.

  It seems the automatic test crashes if there is a bad sector that has not yet been remapped. If you back up all your data before performing a full format on the disc it will fix the problem (assuming it's the same problem I had). In the meantime, I would check what are the SMART test results... you may have a faulty hard drive. (one or two bad sectors are not as bad as HP are affected because these will be remapped as soon as a write is attempted on them).

  If it gets corrupted, go for another one again.

  First of all trying to read the above documents and try to do it again.
