• Boot XP, the XP CD and HARD drive failure

  Hi all

  I'm trying to fix a HP Media Center PC for someone, it runs Win XP MCE and after the POST, he returned to a blank screen with a cursor blinking _.

  I came to the conclusion that the Master Boot Record is damaged, however, when I insert a CD in XP to try to repair the startup using the recovery console, this request "press any key to boot from the CD" then, after a key, the response "checking your system configuration" or something like that flashes on the screen for a while and then the screen turns white.

  I took the HARD drive and run as an external drive to run chkdsk on the work and recovery partitions, the two discover ok. I also manually checked boot.ini, which seems to be in order from another system. I don't think that the user has tried to make strange changes to the system.

  I tried the non-destructive recovery, it made no difference. I have not tried the destructive version, because to be honest, I believe that this will only fix the operating system, not the boot sector.

  I'm really scratching my head over this one, so any help would be greatly appreciated please.

  Thanks in advance

  I went back to check your original messages but don't see any mention one by using the DVD recovery which should have been created when the PC was new.  In this regard and the new disk, if you use the DVD recovery, they will partition the drive, install the OS and make the Partition Recovery for you and everything will end.  Then you'd be back to day 1 - your computer would be like from the factory.

• Bought the new computer windows 10, itunes has changed location of support for external hard drive. The music does not appear in itunes.

  BOUGHT NEW COMPUTER WINDOWS 10, CHANGED ITUNES MEDIA LOCATION FOR EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE. THE MUSIC DOES NOT APPEAR ON ITUNES.

  Changing the iTunes media folder location setting affects only where new additions to your library will be stored.  To use a disk external drive to store your library complete (and assuming that you have access to the original data of the library on an old computer) you must copy the iTunes folder, by default in C:\Users\username\Music, on the external drive - structure library and its records should be like this:

  

  The hold button SHIFT DOWN when you start iTunes and when you see this message:

  

  Click choose a library... then find and select the iTunes Library.itl in iTunes on your external drive folder.

  For more information, see user turingtest2 on make a library of portable split.  You must also acquire a 2nd external drive and allows create and maintain a backup your library.

• What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a pavilion d4790y desktop computer?

  What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a desktop pavilion d4790y?

  It would be a secondary drive, not the boot drive.

  The operating system is Vista Home Premium, 32-bit.  The version of the BIOS is 5.08.

  Are there any changes or upgrades that would allow an internal hard drive 3 TB to install?

  Here are the specifications and configurable options for your desktop HP Pavilion d4790y and here are the specifications of its card mother P5BW - THE (Basswood2). Based on the specifications and the age of the computer, I would expect you to use a hard drive 3 TB as a secondary drive on Windows Vista (DISPLACEMENT SP1 or SP2) and Windows 7. Formatted as MBR would require the drive to use with a minimum of two partitions. Formatted as GPT would require only a single partition. In no case will you be able to use the 3 TB as a boot device drive because your computer does not support a UEFI BIOS that allows booting from a GPT formatted disk. No changes or updated should be held.

  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.

• How to transfer iTunes with comments and followed by names, but keep the files of the song on external hard drive?

  I have all of my music stored on an external hard drive. On my old iMac, I have iTunes with all the songs on this hard drive organized or recognized as I like, with comments and play lists and track/song names and album names. How can I transfer iTunes as it is to the old iMac to the new MacMini while leaving the actual files of the song (> 2.5 to) on the external hard drive? In short, I want the old iTunes on my new computer, but the files of the song in the current HD thank you so much.

  (2.66 GHz, 4 GB RAM 20 "iMac; 2014 new Mac Mini)

  Hmmm...   Never tried, but I "think" it should work.   The reader will need to named exactly something on the new computer, as it was on the old.

  1. on the old computer, go to {user folder} / music/iTunes and move the files on the external hard drive.

  2. on the new computer in iTunes, go to Preferences > advanced and not select "copy of the file to the iTunes Media folder.

  3. always in this same window under "iTunes Media folder location", click on change.   Now select the location on the external hard drive, you have moved the files too.

  Files to be copied.

• That if I broke some of the pins on my hard drive connection?

  Original title: I need help

  Hi guys, pls I need emergency assistance to solve the problem I have with my hard drive. I tried to fix the back of the hard drive on my system after I finished scan to check the virus outside, while I tried to plug the disk hard, part of the power with the intact pins connection point is broken, and since the system is not completely power the way which it used to. It feeds when the hard drive is not connected and as soon as I connect the HDD, it fuels and stops again. What should I do

  Hello, Brigitte,.

  If the connect the power supply to the hard drive has been broken, you've lost the hard drive. You must buy a new one. If it is a connection between the power supply and hard drive, then a new connector is necessary. Anyway you must have it looked at by a qualified technician. It is also wise to not it lights up when the hard drive is connected in case damages pins short the system and cause you more problems.

• the upgrade of my hard drive on an hp laptop. How to create a windows cd? KeyCode on laptop wallpaper

  the upgrade of my hard drive on an hp laptop.  How to create a windows cd?  KeyCode on laptop wallpaper

  You n "t do it this way.

  You use cloning software to clone your existing to the new disk drive.  For portable computers, you will need to purchase an external hard drive enclosure which is (a) compatible with your drive (SATA or PATA) interface and (b) compatible with external connections on your laptop (for example, USB, FireWire, eSata).  Do not spend a lot of money for this speaker ($ 10-$ 20).

  If your new hard drive Western Digital, you can get the free cloning (a 'special' version of Acronis True Image) of WD software (http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119) or you can get it separately (this is not an exhaustive list and is in no particular order):

  Acronis True Image Home 11
  EASEUS ToDo Backup
  Paragon Drive Copy or Partition Manager Personal
  Casper
  Norton Ghost

  The process is simple:

  1. Install the software on your laptop for cloning
  2. RTFM (do not skip this step)
  3. Install the new drive in the external case
  4. Connect new player to the computer
  5. Clone original disc on new drive
  6. Stop
  7. Unplug the external computer case
  8. Exchange records (original for external disk) and the new laptop drive
  9. Reboot and enjoy your new drive.

  When you know that the cloning operation was successful, format the old drive, which is now in the external case and use it for backup of data.

  Please help me!

  Hi Carolinelightfoot,

  This error message occurs when the system could not read and write data to the registry file. The error indicates a problem with the registry.

  Method 1:

  You can run a Checkdisk to see if there are drive errors that can cause this problem.

  Check your hard drive for errors

  Note: When you run the disk check, there is a chance of losing the data that you can take a backup of important data before you run checkdisk.

  Method 2:

  You can also try to boot from a full version of Windows Vista installation disc and try to perform a restore of the system to WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment)

  What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

  Hope this information is useful.

• What is the location of the product on my hard drive id?

  My computer is wobbly, and I can't run windows on it right now. So I'm running ubuntu on it from a flash drive. In order to use the online chat to get technical support for my problem, however, I need the product id. There are instructions on searching for it, but they onl possible if you use windows, I'm not. I can still access all the files on my hard drive, I can't use windows to do.

  So my question is: where on my hard drive is the product id?

  There is no readable hard disk form. It is in an encrypted form in the registry, or on a sticker on the computer/CD case.
