SMART short test failed. Have Windows 7 on a Pavilion, AYO18AA-ABA how can I fix?

Do not understand 'value '.

This means usually your hard drive has failed or is defective and must be replaced. It can also indicate a very awkward motherboard that is about to fail.

  • SMART short test failed

    Under hardware Maintence diagnosed and he tells me that the SMART short Test failed what it means and how to fix this

    I think that trying to DEFRAGMENT a hard disk 'default' is the wrong thing to do.

    Compare to the conduct of a dirt road with Bald tires - while the Bald tires may be OK on a dry, paved, road between them work "hard" will result in a failure of the tire.

    Similarly, many files on the hard drive when it is expected to be soon to fail, is also a bad idea.

    Any small computer boss store can sell you a hard drive brand new and may try to "clone" of 100% of the hard drive of the 'old' drive on 'new' disk

    Price?  It depends on the capacity (250 GB? 500 GB? 1000GO? 2000 GB?).

    About US $100, you will have a new disk drive with a capacity greater than your current drive.

    Add $50 to $100 US for the technician:

    Open the computer case,

    * Check the physical size and the capacity of the old-disk drive, to recommend a "compatible" replacement

    * Fix temporarily the new discs,

    * run the software "-disk cloning."

    * delete the old records (and he will give it to you, so that you can literally hammer it, so that no one will ever be able to read one of your folders – think 'security'),

    * connect permanently the new disks.

    * close the computer case,

    * test it.

    It also depends on the "age" of your computer.

    If it is still running Windows XP or Windows Vista, it will be over ten years - REPLACE a computer of this type.

    rather than spend more than US $150 to keep until something else died of "old age".

  • When I try to log the p2p soulseek site, I get the error message "connection failed: socket error.» change the connection settings. How can I fix it?

    "socket error".

    When I try to log the p2p soulseek site, I get the error message "connection failed: socket error.» change the connection settings. How can I fix it? Is - this type of error called a winsock error?  It keeps happening to me on this site. What I've read, it happens when you make changes to a program before concluding that under its weight. Could it happen because I'm deleting files, I don't think that will be completed while the other files are D/Ling? That's what I'm doing wrong? I found a solution to correct an error in Winsock that is to enter the "command prompt" and type "netsh winsock. Will this work? (I'm sorry I have so many questions in this post, but I have had TO KNOW!!)

  • Even though I have my Windows Mail spam set to the highest level, I continue to receive unwanted emails. For some reason any Windows Mail does not block them. How can I fix it?

    I have my blocker spam Windows Mail, the highest value which means I should only receive emails from my contacts.  Despite this, I continue to receive unwanted emails.  This has been so since I've upgraded to Windows 7.  I even went now install a machine program washing 'spam' which was a disaster as well.  I get about 4-5 spam emails a day - usually when I start the morning.

    How can I solve this problem?

    What Windows Mail in Vista or Windows Live Mail in Win7? If it is a POP3 account, you can filter your messages by using message rules. This is for Outlook Express, but it works the same either of the programs.

    Start with the only rule of AddressBook and you receive a message that you want people not in your address book (E-mail from companies, bills, your ISP, etc), you can add them to the rule.

    Box 1 - Where the From line contains people {check it out}

    Box 2 - Check: delete it & stop processing more rules if you want messages not in the address book to go to deleted items, or you can create a spam folder and direct them here.

    You can choose to delete the server, but be careful because you never have messages downloaded to any folder, if you choose this option.

    Box 3 - Click on the blue words contains people

    Click on the first address to select it. Scroll to the end and hold down the SHIFT key while you click the last address. This will highlight all. Right-click on it and click on from the menu that appears.

    Now, click Options and choose: Message * contains no of * the people below in the top of the page Options area, then choose: Message corresponds to one of the people below in the background Options box.

    OK your way out of the new rule.

    Now, only the addresses that you entered will be uploaded to your Inbox. You won't see other emails.

    Remember, if you add a person to your address book, you must add to the rule. It will not automatically be added.

    Be sure to see these links for more options.

  • Profile of user not loaded correctly, you have been connected with a temporary profile. How can I fix it?

    I use a Toshiba Satellite with windows vista. My father gave it to me, but instead of creating a new user account, I have renamed the original administrator account. two years later, I have 3 accounts on the laptop, which only the original is still the sole Director and has access to all partitions on the hard drive as well.

    A week ago, my computer laptop power had reported issues so I immediately sent for repair. I came home today and the Standard 2 user accounts work perfectly. However when I connect to my original administrator account I get this pop - up message:

    "The user profile was not loaded correctly. You have been logged on with a temporary profile. Changes to this profile will be lost when you log out. Check the log of the events for more information or contact your administrator "

    I lost all my profile settings, including internet bookmarks, music playlists, etc. The office looks like a brand new installation of Vista and all the customization disappeared. I can't afford to lose all data. It is seriously important and was on my desk and in my documents.

    How can I get my profile without losing any data?

    Hi Salman91,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Windows Vista Community.   New profile created, try browsing to the old profile (C:\users\username).  You should see all the old user data.  If this does not work, try to copy the files in Safe Mode.

    Please let us know if that helps.

  • I have windows XP, IE7 and Opera installed. How can I do to fix my windows.

    I recently had replaced by Dell (XPSM1210) cooling system. The keyboard has been replaced and a bigger HD was installed. Windows XP has been reinstalled and updates have been made except SP3 and I also downloaded IE7 and the latest version of the Opera browser. Everything worked well, but I failed my configuration of Opera and couldn't fix so I uninstalled opera and it's associated files (settings). After that I reinstalled Opera, once again everything worked fine until recently. I'm having a problem with my space bar does not not in a browser. I have to hit the space bar a couple of times to make it work most of the time (press hard). I thought it was a bad keyboard and another is sent to me, but I just noticed that my space bar works fine in Notepad and OE then maybe that's not a bad keyboard.

    I have not reinstalled everything I had on my computer because I wanted to be sure that the basics working first.  I have uninstalled anything that I shouldn't when I got Opera, so I think I need to fix my windows but I've never done before (by myself). Should I uninstall IE and Opera first? Should I re-install my drivers? Should what order I reinstall everything? I hate trying to get the settings for my return to the way they were, I used the files and transfer settings Wizard, but I always had to make some changes, is there a better way to recover my settings?

    I hope I posted this in the right section. Your help is greatly appreciated.
