• Hard drive has been corrupted and replaced it with the new hard drive but couldn't get the windows genuine back 8

  Original title: recovery of original windows 8

  When I bought the new device, it was loaded with windows 8 but a few days before my hard drive has been corrupted and replaced it with the new hard drive but could not get the real Windows back 8.

  Please help me to get my windows genuine 8 back so I could get additional updates downloaded.

  Hello Vishal,

  Welcome to the Microsoft community. I appreciate your efforts to resolve the issue. I will certainly help you with the problem you are experiencing.

  If you purchased a computer with installed OEM Windows 8 on it, there could be a sticker on the Tower, or in the back (in the case of a laptop) with the product key to this topic. If there is no sticker, he can be preinstalled on your system BIOS.

  I need a bigger hard drive on my laptop computer product for laptop HP 620, no #UUW WT249EA, serial no CNU1060PR9. It is originally equipped with a 320 GB SATA II HD. I want to install a 500 GB and, if possible, a 1 TB hard drive. I'm looking to

  If it will take a 500, there will be a 1 to and Yes, do not try to buy the hard drive for HP. buying a retail source for reasons of price. If you buy a 1 TB drive and it doesn't work I'll buy it from you at a cost, I'm sure it will be fine.

• Satellite U500-17F: problems with the new HARD drive

  Hi everyone, I got some troubleshooting with my Satellite and a new drive, I bought recently, because that is already damaged because of too many bad sectors. One is a Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 Bg (WD3200BEKT model number). It should be a fast reader but is not with my Satellite.

  After having mounted the drive in the laptop, I ran a new installation (with full disk format} Windows 7 (64 bit) with all the necessary drivers (that I downloaded directly from the Page of Support Toshiba.)

  The problem is that the laptop needs a lot of time to start and also to disable, and whenever I try to run an application or start a program (for example Firefox, or just a few windows applications), the laptop freezes for about 30 to 60 seconds, the drive no longer works (you can hear leaders put in position 'parking' and the HDD LED control is constant) ", no lights flashing).

  It seems that the drive (during this 30-60 seconds) in something as a stand-by mode. I ran a few Western Digital diagnostic tools and the car looks all right to 100%. It works also without any problems in the other laptop (HP Pavilion DV6500). Could this be a problem with the controller (Intel ICH9M - E ATA AHCI controller) driver?

  Any suggestion?
  Thanx

  Hello

  You use the latest version of the BIOS?
  Please check if you need a BIOS update. Of course I read in a few discussions on the similar question of Win XP you use Win 7 but its value to check the update of the BIOS and U500 series.

  In addition, I recommend check you the power of Windows 7 options.
  Disable in the power profile that you use power saving HDD.

  Just a question:
  You use the option AHCI in the BIOS?
  As far as I know it of possible to use either a compatible SATA AHCI mode.
  AHCI must be used because this option would use full SATA performance.

• Satellite 1800-712 does not start with the new HARD drive

  Hello world.

  I am currently trying to install a new HARD drive in my notebook of 1800-712.
  I'm having a few trubbles as my Satellite won't start with my new HARD drive.

  I upgraded my BIOS to the latest version.
  The new HARD drive is a 40 GB Samsung.

  Any suggestions on what I need to do to make it all works?

  THX, Philippe

  Hello

  This device was shipped with 20 GB HARD drive.
  You again is 40 GB.
  I guess that the BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive because of the size.

• Acer Aspire TimelineX 1830 68U118-t with a new hard drive. How can I get the bluetooth to work?

  I have an Acer Aspire TimelineX 1830 t-68U118.  The original hard drive died, so I replaced it with a new hard drive.  I loaded Windows 7 x 64 and loaded the chipset drivers and the network drivers.  The laptop is always my bluetooth equipment (even if I loaded the drivers Atheros).  Does anyone else have this problem?  How can I get the bluetooth to work?

  It would probably depend on the status of the warranty of the system.

  You must contact the service for options.

• Satellite C660-28 d - problem "Load driver" with the new HARD drive

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660-28 t.

  The hard drive has failed. I called Toshiba Support who send me a replacement.

  However in the meantime I was going to put in my spare hard drive and do a fresh install of another operating system that I have a spare for (Win 7) key.

  However, I can't past the screen "Loading Drivers" as the laptop came with driver disks.
  I can't find the drivers on the Toshiba site (I tried some drivers intel which I thought were good, but he says they were not signed and all comes down to the loading screen drivers).

  I have made the recovery discs, but obviously can not use them on the new hard drive as it doesn't have the recovery partition.

  Any ideas on where I can get the proper drivers from?

  Thank you

  > I made the recovery discs, but obviously can not use them on the new hard drive as it doesn't have the recovery partition.

  If you have a recovery disk using Toshiba preinstalled recovery media creator tool, you just have to boot from that disk to begin the installation.

• Satellite A205 - Vista backup center and restoration with a WiFi hard drive

  I use Vista Ultimate Center of backup and restore to back up hard drive of my laptop Satellite A205 series on a wireless external hard drive. The external hard drive (which is formatted in NTFS) is directly attached (via USB) to my wireless router Belkin low, instead of being connected directly on my laptop.

  I know that this WiFi network hard drive is recognized by my laptop series Satellite A205, because it appears as "Drive Z:" when I click on 'My Computer'... but the version of "Backup and Restore Center" which appeared on my laptop Satellite A205 only allows backup of DVD or directly - connected hard drive not the readers of (strange for a laptop with built-in WiFi) network.

  By contrast, the version of the backup center and restaurant located on my computer to my lists one office (also Vista), drives on the computer at first - but it includes a "more:"hyperlink by which someone with rights Admin can click and access the network drives. "

  This "more:"hyperlink does not appear on the version of the backup center and restore on my laptop Toshiba Satellite 205. "

  I can't even someone at Microsoft to talk to me without first
  $ 69.95 for the 'privilege '.

  Any suggestions?

  Hi irsharp23,

  > but the version of "Backup and Restore Center" which appeared on my Satellite A205 laptop only allows backup of DVD or directly - connected hard drive not the readers of (strange for a laptop with WiFi built-in) network.
  Laughing out loud
  I think that's not a junk Toshiba. Center backup and restore is designed by Microsoft and Toshiba has nothing to do with it. So I think you need to get in touch with the guys at Microsoft to ask for a solution, or there may be an update for this tool.
  Did you check that?

  Moreover, why n t connect the external DRIVE directly to your laptop drive? I don't see a reason to connect such a disc HARD backup over the network, because this image of backup can be used only on your laptop.

  Alternative, I can recommend Acronis True Image to record images of backup on the network or if you use Microsoft SyncToy to synchronize your files between laptops and network. ;)

• Replace an ATA with a SATA hard drive

• Satellite A100 - 065 (PSAANA) - can I spend it with a SATA2 HARD drive?

  Hello Forum!

  I want to upgrade to a hard disk of 120 GB (Hitachi) to a 500 GB (Western Digital). I don't know if this A100 supports SATA2.

  I think it's to do with the hard disk controllers that are on the motherboard. This is information I don't think (using the pc Wizard). I am very happy to use a SATA drive, if it is the one which is compatible, but if it supports SATA 2, then obviously I would install a because they are 3GB of bandwidth instead of 1.5 GB as SATA.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated that my hard drive is full.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  You can use a SATA2 HDD without problems. These discs hard are compatible downgrade to the old SATA1 standard, so you can use 500 GB HARD drive, as you suggested.
  But don t forget it will not work with SATA1 speeds, but this should not be a problem normally.

  So have fun with the new HARD drive! ;)

  Good bye

• Should I replace logic board or cable hard drive? MacBook Pro 13 mid 2012

  Hello guys I suffer for the last two weeks of my Macbook Pro would be grateful if you help me.

  Summary:

  A few months ago my mac has been slow and when I restart or stop it would take a minute or two, what has not happened in 2012-2014. In 2015, I decided to upgrade my SSHD HDD - Seagate 1 TB (that I'd need more space and a better performance). After that the upgrade of SSHD everything went well, my mac has been rapid, the battery has now 8 hours of battery life (440 + cycles). Overall it was a great experience! However during the night my frozen Mac even the mouse cursor, so I closed my Mac and it set in motion this time he showed me an icon of the slash. I disassembled my Mac and handed the stock HARD drive. This time, he showed the white screen without the disks. I tried several boards of various sites and one from the tip which has been WORKED safe mode! When I restarted, he returned to square one... I used the same trick but it didn't work. Now I see that a white screen on both discs, sometimes the issue icon flashes. Just for you find the hard disk turns but does not recognize... Although she acknowledged on my other Mac.

  I just remembered something just before this incident happened, I was cleaning up my Macbook with a small wet towel size (including the liquid soup inside) and then I cleaned the screen, the trackpad and keyboard (some liquid went inside the thing black screen and some of them inside the edges of the trackpad) but I them rinsed quickly. After 2 days, the slash screen appeared, and that's how it started.

  I removed the battery to see if there is any corrosion or something unusual about this, I also checked the trackpad, and it wasn't any dry liquid or dust, etc.

  Get to the point:

  Currently, I use my Mac through an external SSHD and everything works fine, but I want to stop using this method and thus solve the problem.

  Issues related to the:

  What exactly is the problem? Is my logic damaged Board and keep my HARD drive to recognize?

  Do you think that my card is fine, but I just need to replace the cable from the hard drive (821-1480) to a new?

  What happens if the hard disk thing stuck on the logic board or is damaged?

  Please help me and I'm sure that others are also facing a similar question. Another note, why some users claiming that their disk cable hard is to failure after replacing several times?

  
  

  We do not know "What exactly is the problem?". Get out your computer to an authorized for assessment service center. I suspect that you have caused water damage when the water and soup entered into your computer. Be prepared for a fix expensive since the water, not the soup ir and electronic works well together.

• Update on the Satellite P100 (4200 RPM at 5400 RPM) HARD drive

  I had my laptop game Satellite P100-347, abandoned for a while now and want to give it to my little brother. This laptops come with 4200 RPM HARD drive and I would like to know if it is upgraded to a 5400 RPM / MIN 320 GB finally fails the system or am good to start!

  Thank you!

  Unfortunately, there is no public document on update on this model of laptop HARD drive and I can't say for sure but I believe that there should be any problem. If anyone post here own experience about these updates buy the HARD drive and test it.

  If there is a problem, you can send the HARD return drive.
  This info can be useful for other members of the forum. Because of this, please post the upgrade result.

• Satellite A210-171 - maximum capacity of a hard drive?

  What is the max HDD capacity satellite a210-171 may take?

  Hi turboiwan,

  As much I know satellite A210-171 has already interface SATA HARD drive so that you can install each HARD drive with this interface because the standard SATA are without capacity limits. This means that hard drives of 500 GB or more may work.

  For example, I upgraded my laptop with 500 GB Western Digital drive HARD and this worked great.

• Satellite A10: Want to upgrade 80 GB HARD drive

  I have a Samsung MP0804H 80 GB hard drive that I would like to install in my A10 satellite to replace the 40 GB of factory drive. The Samsung Player dimensions are 37 "x 3.94" X 2.75 "and there and interface ATA - 6." Before the opening of the A10, does anyone know if the Samsung drive is comaptible?

  Also, are there any help documents that describe the disk replacement procedure? I want to mirror the 40 GB to 80 GB via USB and then swap but don't know if it's as simple as that.

  Hello

  As far as I know this unit is about 3 years old and I really don t know what max took HARD drive capacity supported by the BIOS. Unfortunately there is no public document upgrae HARD disk, but I assume that 60 GB should work without any problem. Perhaps 80 GB also, but I'm not sure.

  You may be lucky and someone else will report on successfully A30 computer portable HARD drive upgrade. Please also check option of advanced search on this forum. You may find a few interesting on cell A10.

  Before you exchange the HARD disk, you can try to do image own facilities using an application like Norton Ghost. This image, you can install on a HARD drive created new partition. In my opinion, it's easier to have absolutely the same installation of the laptop.
