  and another thing, the problem with this usb devices are not recognized, what causes this error?

  I have windows xp sp3

  I think you may have a hardware problem. You can try to update the drivers of the computer (including the chipset or motherboard) and see if the problem clears. If this isn't the case, you may need to update the bios of the computer. If all fails, you will need to replace the motherboard on this PC. Since he is a big part, I suggest you buy a new computer, or get it fixed if it is still under warranty.

• DV7-3160us: hard drive problem or the operating system?

  After the HP screen, I get a black screen that says: Boot Device not found please install an operating system on your hard drive. Hard drive-(3F0).  But if I hit the f4 key it states: there is no hard drive.

  If anyone out there can answer to this dilemma, I just need to make the recovery discs or replace the hard drive?

  Thank you, had an independent check that the drive was dead. Can be fixed, but still old technology was so not worth.

• A33 satellite will not start on the hard drive even after the installation of the new system

  Hello, I need help, my A33 does not start on a hard drive. It is to see the drive hard in the bios and even by operating the drive when you go to install. But as soon as it will boot to the hard drive, it is just a black screen. It is very strange that you can see the hard drive in the bios and even with a diagnostics disk. I can see, scan it and check it by starting with a diagnostic disk, but when I start the computer, it doesn't do anything.

  Help please!

  Stand by. Your ad is so confused. When you read can you understand what you wrote?

  BIOS recognizes the HARD drive correctly, no?
  When you use bootable disk for the installation of the OS is properly recognized HDD?
  You can install OS using the original recovery disc or by using the Microsoft installation disc?

• acing hard drive problem after upgrade to 8.1 windows

  Mr President I upgraded my hp envy j048tx to windows 8.1 and have updated all my drivers using HP support assiastant... so when I apply a right click on any file... its takes time to open the contextual menu... long u please you suggest?

  Hi Vira_Bathwar, welcome to the Forums of HP. The right-click menu is also known as the "context Menu". This can accumulate and get cluttered over time, causing it to be slower. The other possibility is system performance issues. I found a similar thread with a few suggestions that have worked for other people know this symtom.

• Alternative to the reset by Satellite A660 for potential HARD drive problem

  In the last week or two, I got a few blue screens, saying he was driving demand, and that windows must be shut down to avoid damage my computer.

  I have just restart and continue working.
  The last time it happened, I had repeatedly "initialization failed" and it says hdd, SDS, fdd. If I pressed the power button until I didn't see no signs of activity, then started. Things went well. I called Toshiba support and they recommended that I go home and save my files before continuing. It took hours selectively to clean, sort the previous backups, and a small footprint of the backup system.

  When I called Toshiba once again, they recommended a "takeover", which is restoring the factory settings. It puts me in the stone age. I have to go through a never-ending process of the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, install and reconfigure all the applications and environments/configurations, etc. It will essentially take on holiday, if not more. I'll also have to get another computer (maybe a netbook) to stay in touch while I restart my laptop. It's barely more than a year.

  Is there a diagnosis I can do to determine the probability that there is a hard drive problem? Support for Toshiba said that is the surest way, because it provides a diagnostic F10 for the hard disk code, and it also pushes the bad sectors at the end of the disc (logically, I suppose, since you can't physically move a fault).

  > About Hitachi DFT, is it important that my HARD drive is Toshiba mk6465gsx? This is what is displayed "Hard drives" in the Device Manager.

  It s no matter what HARD drive manufacturer, it is the Drive Fitness Test is able to scan all hard drives to find errors.

  > Also, http://www.hitachigst.com/support/downloads/#DFTshows links to create boot disks, but I was wondering if I could create a bootable instead.

  Not sure if this is possible if there is that one option to create a startup disk, and then a flash stick does not work. But of course you can try this out.

  > This laptop does not come with a floppy drive, and I still create coasters trying to burn discs.
  You don't need the floppy drive, the tool must create a disk bootable (CD)

  > I guess that the same question can be asked on Memtest86. Another issue is the relevance of Memtest86 for my system. My c drive has a "Program Files" folder, but also a "Program Files (x 86)" folder for 32-bit applications. Memtest86 is for the x 86 architecture. I don't know if my 64-bit Windows 7 involves a non - x 86 architecture.

  I guess that Memtest86 should also work on Win 7 64 bit systems. But also the MemTest 4.20 is 64-bit capable

• Partition on HARD drive disappeared after formatting using the product recovery disc

  My laptop came with a partitioned hard drive C and D drives.

  After formatting my hard drive using the recovery disk of the supplied product with my computer, I don't have any option to partition the HARD drive, only for the 1. 46 GB for some recommended backup, and the remainder became the C drive.
  D drive disappeared. Now, when I put the USB ant in my laptop, it reads as D drive.
  Can you please help, I need to have my hard drive partitioned into C and D drives, and flash memory can be any subsequent letter.

  Hello Richard

  Is it so complicated to tell us which model of laptop you have exactly?
  Anyway, when you use recovery Toshiba you cannot lose score. After using the recovery media, you'll have to factory settings and the structure of the HARD disk will be the same as on the first day.
  Something like that is definitely not possible.

  > I don't have no option to partition the HARD disk
  This option doesn't exist. On some older models of laptops, just an option to set up the first score ability there.
  After the first start, you can go to disk management and activate the second partition. All that s!

  Please tell me what model of laptop have you then I can tell you more about the partitions.

  Hello.

  I'm having a problem loading and using my Adobe Photoshop CS3. This is the third time that I use this forum. I us a PC. The operating system is "Microsoft Windows 7 Home prem". I recently had to remove from my hard drive and reload the operating system with all the updates and load to the top of my existing software. All my software works except my Photoshop CS3, which I use most. I loaded the software disc and download online. The system of charge very well and activation is complete.  Here are the main things that don't work properly, I have noticed so far. First of all, I can't open my camera RAW (I can with my Lightroom software, but not with my Photoshop software?). So I can't open any of my files of digital camera? Second, I can open a .jpeg file and use the Photoshop software and I can save the changes, but when I turn off my calculated the software doesn't seem to be on my computer. When I go to Windows ' search program and files "software is not located here. When I go to "Uninstall" the software of the foldername is there it is. "Photoshop CS3" but there isn't any size file to it IE 400 MB, while my software "Lightroom" on the 'uninstall' section will have a file for example size 400 MB tied to it. Thirdly, I also have a photosoftware of B + W, which operated in Photoshop; It's "NIK software - Silver Efex Pro" and it is located in the subtitle of 'filter' of Photoshop CS3. I use Silver Efex and all functions are working properly, but I can't save the file, it does not save the changes to save.

  Please can you help me.

  Thank you.

• Satellite L670 - hard drive dead after only 8 months

  Hello

  This morning I return my laptop due to defective hard drive problem. After 8 months, he is already dead.

  The positives are: I'm still under warranty and the second the software toshiba hilighted me from time to time, allowing me to back up my data before the crash. TKS Toshiba for this very useful tool.

  The question is: how a hard drive die that fast after fews month only?

  Bad luck or bad use? I wonder.

  I wish to have feedback from those L670 who owns the same model (windows 7), to understand if this problem is common or if I was unfortunately concerned.

  Also, if there are possible solutions to avoid the stress of the HD for daily use? As for example, reduce writing on this subject (save blu - ray using AnyDvD HD on hd, then cut & paste for external hard drive), or connect too often external hard drive in order to avoid the extra electricity if necessary?

  In the future, I have to perform chkdsk more often? Defrag? If Yes, how often?

  This is my 3rd phone dying, Sony VAIO = mothercard dead after 1.2 years, Fujitsu Amilo xi = exploded after 3 years and now Toshiba HD after 8 months.

  900EUR up to 1600EUR, I do not see significant resistance of one of these models, Sony was the badest ever in terms of longevity of the video card and compatibility (unplayable games after 2 months, no update of the driver), keyboard 'paint' was a mess with deterioration after fews month compared to Fujitsu and Toshiba (no points). Toshiba L670 most recent, was the best in terms of game compatibility.

  What should do? Stop buying the laptop or use only fews hours a day with a PC on top?
  For time beeing I can't afford to have a PC + a computer laptop that I'm unemployed, surviving with 10EUR per day.
  time to find a new job.

  Despite this, I managed to buy the new book of the cooler Zelman for my Toshiba 40/50EUR all about, but it did not help apparently.

  TKS for your comments about life duration L670 and particularly problem HD + best use to protect it.

  Guillaume

  In my opinion the answer is clear: no chance.

  In any case, don t think too much on the use of the laptop. Cell phone is designed to operate for a long period, then there is no reason to reduce the time to use on your Toshi.
  I use my laptop to work on a daily basis and it works at least 10 hours a day, sometimes one night too many.
  Just be careful that your laptop is placed on the desktop, the cooling fans must not be blocked by what it is.
  All that s.

• Major problems after the update to 10.11.2

  Hello

  I have a 2009 MacBook pro environment. I'vewalkways updated to the latest osx and have never had any problems. Since the update to El Capitan my computer worked really slow. I deleted all the old files, uninstalled I don't use and move all the files on a hard drive current of the program. With the first update to El Capitan, it would take 10 minutes to activate and load up, slow but manageable.

  Since the 10.11.2, update I have been practically impossible to use my computer at all. Now, it takes 25 minutes to activate and load up. Once its loading I can barely click an icon before her color of the wheels. It will charge finally something at the end of 5 minutes, but basically the computer is useless.

  IM wondering if anyone else has had similar with El Capitan and the problems that people would be advice to me. I plan to downgrade to Yosemite, as I had no problem then, but I've never done anything like this before, and I'm worried it will more mess my computer and then I will have no computer at all? I need to create a USB key with Yosemite on and then erase the Mac HD before reinstalling with Yosemite. I am naturally cautious but want to do what's best for my computer working again.

  Or would it be best to reinstall El Capitan and hope this sorts the problem?

  Thanks in advance

  Try these in order to test your system after each see if it is back to normal:

  1. a. reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

  b. Macs with Intel processors: reset of the controller (SMC) system management

  2. restart the computer in Safe Mode, and then restart again, normally. If this does not help, then:

  HD recovery start: restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and press and hold the

  COMMAND and R keys until it appears the Utilities menu screen.

  3 fix the hard disk and permissions: select startup drive in the Utilities menu utility. Fix the hard drive and the permissions as follows.

      When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. After loading disk utility select it

      back from Macintosh HD entry of the list on the left.  Click first aid button in the toolbar. Wait for the operation

      ends, then quit disk utility and back to the main menu.

  4 reinstall OS X: restart from HD recovery Select reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, then click on the continue button.

  Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than wireless.

  
  

• HP Pavilion 15-e073ca: 2nd HARD drive cart, replace the optical drive for HP Pavilion e073ca 15 Notebook PC & Windows 10

  Hello!

  I intend to add an SSD in my two years 15-e073ca HP Pavilion Notebook PC. I found some sites that I can remove the optical drive and put a second drive using a caddy adapter in the optical drive Bay. I found that some people on the forum did it successfully, but nothing on my PC model. I want to know if he could work with my product.

  In other words, there is my plan:

  1 remove the real disk HDD hard bay and replace it with the new SSD.

  2. remove the optical drive and replace it with the adapter caddy containing my old HDD.

  3. do a clean install of Windows 10 on the SSD, using a recovery USB stick made with my system Windows 10 real (which has been updated from Windows 8.1).

  I plan to purchase the following parts:

  1 - a HDD / SSD cart adapter for HP Pavilion 15 (model OBHD9-SATA-SATA-BU9), of NewmodeUS (http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_5&products_id=583)

  2 - a SSD 128 GB (article SDSSDHP - 128G), SanDisk (http://www.sandisk.com/products/ssd/sata/ultra-plus/?capacity=128gb)

  I have a few questions before I buy parts:

  1 - the two drives (my old HDD and the new SSD) are recognized by the motherboard / BIOS and the operating system (Windows, 10)? Is there a limit to a unique HARD/SSD disk drive on the computer?

  2 - the height of the SSD is 7mm, and it seems that my old HDD is 9.5 mm in height (model WDC WD10JPVT-60A1YT0). It would cause no problem (I need to add spacers)?

  3 - these parts work together and with my computer (size, compatibility)? You can expect any problems with this upgrade?

  4 - clean install Windows 10 quote, because I intend to install it on a different drive than the one I used to create the key USB recovery flash? I have never done a clean install of Windows before.

  Thanks in advance for your answers.

  Haghe

  Your plan is perfect. The SSD to will of 7 mm that always come back fine it just will be lower in the caddy. The holes and SATA connections are in the same place as a hard drive of 9.5 mm. You can use a spacer (many SSD include one in the box) but not really necessary.

  Installing SSD for Windows 10 the way you expect is not really "own", that he will again introduce files and programs, in my opinion and certainly drivers. Whatever it is, it works perfectly and activates the old installation has been enabled.

  The hard disk in the optical adapter will not be bootable and will transfer the data a bit slower than a drive in the main compartment, but will still be usable for most cases. If you need fast input/output like Photoshop or video editing move the job file to the first SSD. Alternatively, you may wish to consider documents and photos and other migration on the HARD drive to keep the 128 GB SSD to fill. You can right-click on these files and select 'place' and move them. After the back if you need some help with that.

  Enjoy.

• HP Pavilion 500-210qe: hard drive problem

  Never before have I had a problem with a hard drive. I'll go along to watch Youtube plays a game and what ever and the hard drive with just stop working. The light that indicates the disk hard something it's been stuck on but when I arrived in Task Manager there is nothing using the hard disk and its 100%. After a while of this, I have to stop him because he is so locked up. Then, usually when I start it back up I wait because if I immediately she (of a hard disk failure), even if I can make it work if I wait like 15 minutes that I don't quite understand. Also when I try to update the computer he fails to do so and uninstalls the updats and goes back to what it was before. I got this computer a little over a year now, and it really started to hurt. What I'm asking is, if there is anything I can do to fix this or should I just get a new hard drive. At the moment I'm typeing my portable macbook almost 10 years, because it is more reliable than my PC for $ 600 1 years.

  I'm happy to help you.

  You can actually buy the same size or larger than the existing hard drive for System Recovery media work.  The offered readers when you bought the computer are 1 to, 2-to-3.  As indicated, you can buy one the same size or more great.  Here's a 1 TB drive that will work on your computer.  If you don't want to buy this one, it's a good example of what you need.

• Pavilion 15 t-n200: properties of HARD drive problem

  I have recently restored a Sys Image of my old Dv6 (500 GB) to my new 15t (1 to).   After working with Provost Paul for a few days, I had all the graphic and network problems solved.

  Two outstanding issues:

  1. the properties of the HARD drive always show the use and the ability of the former Dv6.   How to reset to the new disk size?   Does make any difference?

  2. under System properties always displays the model number as the old model Dv6.  It does not list the correct size of the CPU and RAM.   I'm sure that's no difernce, but I like things clean if possible.

  Thank you.

  Thanks for the suggestion and the article.  Unfortunately, it did not work.     It's basically the same solution you suggested in your first post.   With the same problems that I have menioned in my answer.    UNALLOCATED volume already exists and the C volume does not show an option of Volume expansion, it is grayed out.

  There comments to your article suggest the Manager EAseUS Partiution S/w.   As I said, I couldn't do this job eeither.

  Any other ideas?

  Thank you.

• Pavilion dv7 - 4263cl: hard drive problems

  Long story short, OS could not start windows with a missing BOOTMGR message, recovery disc, not work, ordered new HP recovery disks.  To cover, I ordered a new hard drive to replace it, with the same characteristics but a 1 Toshiba to.

  OK, installed the hard drive and used recovery disks at HP, but when you restart always get BOOTMGR missing error message.  Make a new recovery disk for windows 7 64 bit internet and serious on a bootable CD.  It starts, but found recovery does not list an OS system on hard drive.   Did the hard restart more once, install hardrive checked again, the cables and connections.  Took another installation of the HP recovery discs and also led a bootable disc that was to fix the problems with installing a new HHD and activation of the HHD working properly. Working always nothing. Get the same message.  Cast recovery manager got into the prompt orders and done a repair of the bootrec nothing / new. Checked the directory and found at the bottom of the list that it lists zero OS System.  So, how can I get my hard drive formatted to accept the installation of the OS? Any ideas to try, I have read and tried all the messages, I could very well on this forum.   Thank you...

  Thanks for the reply, yes my hard drive failed and I installed a new one, but after using the purchased HP recovery disc though HP, showed that a black bootmgr error saying screen was missing.

  Found on the HP disks partitioned hard drive, with windows on X:\ but was again start-up C:\ which was just a recovery image.   X drive was not complete, he lacked all the drivers and could not activate or change and C disc drive letter. I didn't know how to do this in the command prompt.

  Fixed my problem with a windows 7 installation no disc not the recovery disks that came from HP, if all goes well, they will work to reinstall all drivers to the laptop, but we'll see.  Used (computer repair) on the installation disk and it repaired the bootmgr.  Thanks anyway...
