surface scan test 2 in the hardware diagnostic tool indicates an error code: hd535-2w. What should I do?

I have a desktop HP Pavilion a6702f.  Operating system 64-bit Windows 7.  Following the analysis of material Diagnostics, I have an error.  During the review of the test surface 2, the test failed and showed error code hd535-2w.  What do this mean and what do I do about it?

Hello

This error would tend to indicate that the hard disk is running out.  First thing we do is to backup all your personall files as soon as you can.

Once completed, the only solution is to replace the drive.  If you need a guide on this, please let me know.

Kind regards

    Hello Atelier42, this usually indicates that you have a hard disk failure.

    I would like to back up my data as soon as possible, just in case the hard drive breaks down actually.

    You must also make sure that you have the HP Recovery restore set for your system recovery disc in case you do not want to replace the hard drive.

    With this restore HP Recovery disk set, you could replace a defective hard drive and use this disk set to your HP system back as it was when shipped. Then, you could put your data saved on your system.

    Test drive... Surface Scan Test failed

    weeziestoy wrote: Hard Drive Test... Surface Scan test failed test came because a small blue screen appeared on my computer and I disconnected...

    Hello weeziestoy, this indicates generally the hard drive is a failure. I suggest to backup your important data and consider replacing the disk hard as soon as possible.

    You need to make sure that the restore HP Recovery disc is set to use to restore the software after the hard drive is replaced.

    If you do not have these or can not create them, you can buy these HP if they keep these available.

  • Reinstall the hp hardware diagnostic tool

    I don't know what happened to my HP hardware diagnostic tool. I used it once when I got this computer and sometimes since 2010. It happens in the start menu, but do not work. How can I reinstall it?

    Thank you, Ken

    Hi Ken,

    This tool is a tool of Hewlett-Packard. Get you from HP.com. Its updated regularly, then you are better off to go to get the latest version anyway. Just enter your HP product drivers of the help section, and then select your operating system and get the download of the resulting list.

    If you have any specific questions, post it here and I will help you. Let me know how you fare.

  • Satellite A300-17 years - can't do the tests on the PC diagnostic tool

    I just installed Windows 7 on my laptop A300-17. Everything went very well and I installed all the drivers including PPV but something is worng with the 'pc diagnostic tool', the 'basic information' tab I get all the information corectly but when I go to the tab "diagnotsic tool", it's all the empy, I can't give it a try, just an empty page.

    What could be worng?

    Thank you very much :)

    p.s the windows is in English and Hebrew, not if it's important.

    Hi motti,.

    I even checked the site Web of Toshiba Satellite A300 and Windows 7. It seems that PC diagnostic tool is only available for Windows XP. I can t he find for Vista and Windows 7.

    I think that's the reason. You must download VAP now that it contains.

  • What is 5.1.4861.15 hardware diagnostic tools

    What is 5.1.4861.15 hardware diagnostic tools

    Hi Floyd,

    If I am right, it is actually PC-doctor, Inc. Hardware Diagnostic tool which is distributed by some computer program of PC Doctor OEM manufacturers.  The number seems to be a somewhat older version (possibly published with XP systems).  They still do and I have versions for XP, Vista and even Windows 7. If you have upgraded your operating system, the program may or may not work more.  It doesn't seem to be something that you can buy directly (and I don't think that it can be upgraded) - but your computer manufacturer might be able to say more about it.

    Here is the current information on Program OEM's PC Doctor: http://www.pc-doctor.com/pcd_windows.php.  I know that HP and Compaq and Acer and Fujitsu used and can still - and I saw obsolete links and now gone listed this specific version of the program on their systems - but none of their websites discuss the version even if some do not discuss the existence of a program of diagnostics of equipment and how to use it.  Here is an example: If the computer is running XP so that it looks like this (unfortunately not a download link, just info): tests for hardware problems using PC-Doctor - HP Customer Care (United States - English).

    I don't think that it is malware - if I'm wrong.  If your manufacturer says that it was never installed on your computer, so I guess it's possible, but I found only about above it and no mention of all malware related.  In any case, if it was never installed on the system by the manufacturer, then I would probably not use it and may even consider uninstalling just to be on the safe side.  If it has been installed by the manufacturer, try running it to see if it provides you with hardware diagnostic information.  If it crashes or fails to run if you have an operating system upgraded from the original installed OS, then it is probably not compatible and I would just uninstall it as it will be of no use and cannot be upgraded (unless the manufacturer provides one, but it is unlikely) and is just too much room.

    Yet, it can't hurt to run some checks for malicious programs.  Update and run a scan complete with your current AV program.  Then, try the following programs if you do not, because they can help. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx.  If they are all come clean and do not show this as a problem, then I would say it is more likely is not malware and don't worry in this regard.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Hardware diagnostic tool

    I have a HP Pavilion G7-1329wm running windows 7. I does not seem that hardware diagnostic tool program.  He seems to be spent on other portable HP like mine, and so I was wondering if there is a place I can download it? I used a link (sp4437.exe) I found on the forum, but after installing it, it says 'this version of diagnostic tools is not approved to run on this system. Y at - it an older version that I need?

    Thank you in advance!

    Your computer uses a Diagnostics UEFI support environment to test the material for questions. Please see HP computers - UEFI and the Start Menu for instructions on using the features of Diagnostics UEFI. Hit "F2" or "ESC" then "F2" at startup should show the UEFI Diagnostics page.

    Download and install the environment of Support HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) for a version update of the UEFI Diagnostics.

  • Pavilion p6537: 6.0.5418.39 Hardware Diagnostic tools

    After the upgrade to Windows 10, my monthly hardware diagnostic tool did not work. Received a device discovery error suggesting I restart the program or restart my computer. I performed two operations and diagnostic tool still does not work.  Would that be the upgrade of Windows 10 or just a corrupted file?  Never had a problem with this tool before.

    Hello

    Are you referring to the HP Support Assistant?  If so, uninstall the old version via the Control Panel - program and features, and then install the New HP Support Assistant.

    There is a problem with these models of Leica cameras providing accurate information in the EXIF data F stop. Photomerge for HDR and Panorama will use this information to "mix" the image files. A solution has been found using an EXIF here Editor:

    Re: LR/ACR Pano merger combining Glitch

    This may or may not be the source of your problem, but worth investigating. Try to use any other device non-Leica and do a quick test Panorama or HDR and see if you get the same message.
