Satellite P300 - 190 PSPC2C - water spill and the HARD disk does not appear on the Setup

Hello

Spilled water on the keyboard. Laptop has stopped working.
Dried, but did not recognize the HDD start up and HDD does not Set - up.
Moved the HARD drive to another location of the HARD drive on the laptop and it appears at startup and boot OK.
Is there an easy way to find and repair the defective HARD drive slot?

Thanks for any help.

PK

Hello

The HARD drive slot is not repairable. It s a HARD disk controller and I guess the HARD disk controller is dead.
The HARD disk controller is part of the motherboard and if you want to repair it, so the entire motherboard must be replaced.

New motherboard would cost a small fortune he of not good about market 350Euros
That's why I put t think it is s to replace the mobo only to get the HARD drive in the first location of work

This is my personal opinion...

  • All my addons have been deleted and lost. Even backup has been removed in the latest update of FF. Now addons will not appear and add on bar does not appear. How to fix?

    All the Addons are missing after a recent update of FF. Backup also failed. How the hell that happened? made me? Went back to recharge add on extensions that I needed to use. However, add it to the toolbar does not appear. Tried restoring add on extension of tool bar. Now I add it on the toolbar in the verified Tools menu that was not there before. However, add it to the toolbar doesn't show always upward. Custom selection is worthless because it does not show that the extension add ons. I can check the extensions downloaded in add it menu and they are activated. However, they are not work or appear as it should!

    It is a bigger problem than the simple click here or there.

    I would say definitely go for the clean reinstall of Firefox. Your problem is obviously much more complex then just a misconfigured setting or something. When you updated Firefox, something may be wrong. The instructions are in the post 5.

  • New hard drive does not appear in the disk utility

    I am installing a new hard drive in my late 2011 13 "MacBook Pro. I started using apple's online retrieval system and went to disk utility.

But if she does not appear in the 'my computer' window I can't work with it or don't even know what it I have arquived in it.

Pops up a window saying that "Windows cannot open help and Support because a system service is not ongoing enforcement. " To resolve this problem, start the service named help and Support '. OK, I tried to open 'Help and Support' ' Start Menu ' and the same window appeared again to "not have a system service that runs". I don't know what her soul precisely and I have not the slightest idea of what I need to do to correct this 'disappearance' of Service 'system '. There is nothing without the appearance of HD in the window of thw work? Everything else works fine and the calculation is virus-free. What should I do?

  • Tecra 8000: monitor and the HARD disk does not work - does not start

    I have a laptop Toshiba Tecra 8000 given to me the year last by my uncle. I live in England, but it is and bought the PC in Italy. I do not know if this causes complications, but I thought it may be useful.

    Since I got it it occasionally did not display any image of all system startup, so if I have given some time and restarted it would start working again. Happening of bagan more frequently and now I can't make it work. I have conections and found that everything was in place. Then he doesn't seem to be turning on, however when I replaced the front LED cable seems to be turning on and although I couldn't hear much the CPU was luminous heat. I opened the drive and it gave once more, succeeded him and he still wouldn't start. I had purchased and replaced the screws on the heatsink around this area but I did not handle it with many other things.

    So now, I have a monitor that does not work and a gard drive that won't start... Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Could be either the card mother, CPU or ram. The processor when it goes bad or is not locked in place (have had this before, install the CPU but forgot to turn the lock, so he cannot move) the computer will act as its startup, don't give any error and stay on a black screen. Verify that the processor is locked in place. Then remove the ram and try a stick of RAM that runs on another computer. If you try the RAM and the processor do not always start, then chances are your motherboard is dead and must be replaced. Hope this helps and that solve you the problem.

    Hai I bye a hard disk for my computer laptop is 550 HP Seriers notebook, because my previous hard disk have complaints, but when I corrected this hard drive in the laptop the start menu does not display of hardisk why?

    Hello

    1. you have a single hard drive connected to the computer?

    The issue could be related to the physical connection of the hard disk, I would suggest that you check the physical connection of the hard drive and check if that helps. You can also get in touch with the manufacturer for details on the connection.

    The issue could also be tied to the BIOS settings. You can get in touch with the computer manufacturer for help with the BIOS settings.

    Note:

    BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • How to disable the file hiding (changing options for hard disk does not work)

    Hi all

    I hope someone can help me with the following problem:

    -J' need to open a file of 16 GB of content in third party software (Stata) who reads completely in memory.

    -Due to Windows caching file, necessary to get the procedure done about 32 GB cache files and Stata access physical memory.

    -As I have only 24 GB of physical RAM file is read later part of virtual memory, which leads to serious performance problems.

    I unchecked the box 'Enable write on the device cache' to my hard drive. That did not help. Is there a way to disable the Cache during PLAYBACK of files?

    Thank you very much in advance for any help!

    Tobi

    The write cache and virtual memory are different. Virtual memory is an extension of the physical memory residing on the HARD disk where Windows is installed. Normally, the virtual memory is about twice the size of the current physical memory. Write cache is an exclusive setting for external hard drives only and has no effect in internal hard drives.

    In your case, please note that full 24GO of RAM will not be allocated to the program. At least 1 GB will be reserved for windows, so the rest of the programs are moved to virtual memory, which means that the HARD drive. It is not recommended to disable virtual memory because it can cause stability problems. In addition, the files are not copied directly in memory, even if they are big. Instead, the parts of the file are available and this area, including the incremental values and material, are stored in the memory. So if all of a sudden, you access an area of the file which is very far away from the previous location, it takes time as the new area, as well as differentials and material value of a few bytes is also copied to the memory. The box of files previously displayed is erased from the memory.

    For performance improvements, you can go for the SSD, RAM with higher clock speed (must be compatible with the motherboard) as processor as well as the upgrade. However, please note that the process of accessing a file even as mentioned previously, but the speed will increase because of the higher bandwidth and the clock frequency.
