• Windows detected a hard disk problem after factory reset?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C855D-S5320, not old at all. I tried to download a game and then got the BSOD. I had to reset my PC, lost what I had, but ended up from scratch. Now, every so often, I get a message saying "Windows detected a hard disk problem. Back up your files immediately to prevent the loss of information... ». I have right click the disk hard "defective" for the error checking, no errors found. I tried HD Tune Pro, and tells me 'Warning' for the State of health (05) reallocated sector count (failure) is red, and number of events (C4) reallocated (warning) is yellow. Does this mean I have to replace the hard drive? The computer was working completely fine until BSOD. Now it works and everything but I get this error message. The laptop is not only really old and never any injuries, but perhaps past warranty. I really have nothing left to save, because I lost everything when I have to reset it to factory State. Any advice?

  It's really up to you.  Sometimes there may be false positives, but it looks like your drive is really having some problems.  It was even the cause of the BSOD, who knows.

  You can follow the steps of my colleague here to check your drive for errors:

  But really, I would take the advice and replace the drive.  Or at least be prepared for this 'die', then save your files somewhere else like OneDrive or something so you don't lose important information when it does.

  The disc is a failure.

  Copy what you can from it to your backup device. You may need several attempts to make the copy.

  Don't try to backup the drive: is not remaining usable for long enough for a full backup complete.

  Then replace the disk and reinstall Windows and your applications and data, and retrieve your information from the user of the copied data.

• Product name: G5350uk: Windows detected a hard disk problem

  Hello

  Windows 7

  Serial number: [personal information deleted]

  Product name: G5350uk

  Number of hard driveT3750528AS

  Windows and Intel are telling me that my hard drive is about to fail, but no reason is given. The drive is only about a third full.  I saved everything according to the instructions of Windows but don't know how to proceed.  Windows tell me to contact the computer manufacturer to determine if the disk must be replaced or repaired, but as my PC is now out of warranty I do not know if HP would be able to help me.

  I have attached a PNG file with two errors.  Printing of Intel is not very clear but says "drive on Port 0: at risk.  I have reset the error but it keeps re-appearance.

  Can someone point me in the right direction to have this issue resolved for example find a cause and repair or replace the drive?

  Thanks for your help

  

  Hey there @cws777!

  I think it will be best to replace the hard drive with a new one. As @wb2001 writes that you can try to clone your current OS using a cloning software, and if you decide to go with a WD drive, you can use Acronis True Image WD Edition:

• On the Satellite C - Windows HARD disk failure has detected a HARD disk problem

  Since 2 days have been making repeated dialog "Windows detected a hard disk problem", warning of potential failures of the disc so back up, what I did. Disk in question is a Toshiba MK-5065GSXN.

  As a non-tech user, my instinct is that a new laptop is a better choice than to call Toshiba support for a laptop warranty (2 years) out of.

  On the other hand there may be a simple software fix. The opinion or advice welcome

  Hello

  The message says that something is wrong with the HARD drive.
  It might be possible that your HARD drive will die sooner or later so his need to backup data on another HARD drive, disk or flash memory.

  Finally, I must say you n don't need to buy a new laptop just because your HARD drive starts to hurt work in such cases purchase a new HARD drive and replace it
  HARD drive is not very expensive and the replacement of the HARD disk is very easy in your user manual

  PS: what model of laptop you have exactly?

• Why my computer says "Windows has detected a hard disk problem", even though it says that the drive works fine in the properties?

  Hello

  I was doing some courses on my computer until this window came on my screen and playback;
  "Windows detected a hard disk problem. I immediately went and checked in the properties to see the current status of the disk, and it says "this device is working properly" I am confused and decided to restart my computer. Again, read the error message and it says that the disc was allowed in properties. Every 15 minutes or so, the same error message. I'm running on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and have had the computer since 2008. Is this a virus? Or - is this just the computer falsely detect a problem?
  Can anyone help please?

  Thank you very much

  Liam

  What you see in the drive properties in Device Manager has to do with drivers and the drive configuration, not the real state 'physical' the reader.

  First of all, I error side of caution and if sure you have a backup of all your personal files, data, music, photos, contacts, movies, etc., external media (favorite external hard drive).

  Run the check disk (chkdsk); I suggest to run with two checked options, difficulty of file system errors and scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

  There may be errors or bad sectors which Windows can fix, but if
  the disc is bad get one as soon as a new POSSIBLE. In the meantime I save all your
  important data on DVD or other media.

  If you get the new HARD disk, you can install a clean Windows
  or "Imaging" your current Windows Installer on the new HARD drive.

• Windows error "windows has detected a hard disk problem.

  my laptop has an error without any code number

  r
  What should I do?
  I think it was bad sector and check my hard drive and windows indicates that your drive hard n, t have any problem
  Please help me

  It will be only a bad sector. When you get this message, Windows is NOT pleasant.

  Don ' t mess around the disk check. Back up or copy all your stuff important to an external hard drive if you have one. If you do not, it would be a good time to make the investment.

  If your machine is still under warranty, contact the manufacturer of the computer for hard drive replacement.

  If she is no longer under warranty, buy a replacement hard drive soon and move your system through him.

  Manufacturer recovery disks will cross the OS and restore the recovery partition. The backup/copy of your important data will allow you to restore the data.

  No doubt you have installation media and codes key for all your other stuff. Note now...

• Portege M400 - XP Setup cannot detect any HARD disk

  Hello world

  I have everything, what I can and can't try. During the Installation of Windows XP cannot detect any HARD disk.

  PORTEGE M400 PPM40E-0DG0253I
  BIOS 3.8

  Installation of Vista properly with RAID, but XP installation drivers won't work for all that. I try a lot of drivers (versions even for Vista), with integration of nLite, with SD-start 16-bit back, DriverPacks. I bought no change - disk-USB, the laptop cannot see HDD. I try also with the USB-SATA external enclosure, but this without success, but I can see the HARD drive

  Any ideas?

  Somehow you lack driver SATA.
  Very good description how to prepare the CD of facilities, you can find HERE.

• Cannot start Windows, Windows Setup does not detect the hard disk, Bootmgr is misiing

  I have a few problems on my laptop [Acer 3810 t]

  -The first problem
  My mobile give me screen "cannot start windows' who have 2 choices: run the Startup Repair tool and boot normally. I chose to fix it, but nothing happens and stuck "starting windows" and gives unmountable boot volume 'blue screen '. the Dungeon of blues screen appear (for laptop is a not restart). So I turned off my phone and turn it back on it. the "could not start" screen again and I chose to start normally. but the result is negative. My portable Dungeon cannot start windows. Because of that I am using the advanced boot option and choose all the boot type such asit cannot load the safemode, last configuration etc, but the result is the same, you cannot start windows. in safe mode, its stuck in loading fileinfo.sys. I do not give up to try again with the advanced boot option. until I have a bad situation. My laptop can only 1 file in safe mode and blues screen do not appear again (my laptop only return at the beginning of start or restart)

  -The second problem
  because it cant solved, I want to reinstall my laptop. My OS is Vista 32 bit (pre-installed). I want to install the new operating system, windows 7. I use Dsik Flash bootable USB to install Windows 7. But in the BIOS, it is detected as a USB HDD. So I set my BIOS to load USB HDD to the first order. the installation can be done, but only until the "start Setup" screen and its deadlock. I have it wait up to an hour, but nothing happens. So I'm going to BIOS, change SATA mode to IDE mode AHCI. Then load the USB and go "installation program start screen. but the new problem is the installation of window does not detect my hard drive. So I can not choose the place to install the operating system. I have to load the driver, but I did not. Again to load the configuration to AHCI and IDE, until I get my HDD can detected in IDE mode. So I think I can move easily, I choose custom installation and choose the hard drive to install the operating system. But unfortunately, at the beginning of the process, after choosing the OS, the Installer gives error if installation location the installation failed. (I forgot the error message)

  -The third problem
  So far, I can't spend 'startup begins' as well in mode IDE and AHCI. Also bootmgr in my hard disk is missing, so I can't go to move the startup repair or the startup option in my HDD as before

  What is the error code that you got with blue screen?

  I think that there is a problem with your drive HARD check that by contacting acer...
