• What does that mean? Hard drive error. Hard drive 1 3F1?

  The product name is hp pavilion dv4-6000

  Error message-

  A failure in the hard drive test indicates a physical problem with the hard drive. In other words, that it should probably be replaced. It is relatively in line with impatience, so you should be able to do it yourself. What is the exact model of the laptop number? I'll find detailed instructions for you.
  
  In case you do not want to replace the drive yourself, or if you feel that you can still be in warranty, I suggest to contact the HP Support for your region. If you are in the United States / Canada you can contact to the 1-800-474-6836. If you live outside this area, you will need to go to HP's Site's Support.

  In addition, you will need the recovery disc to restore the original operating system.  If you have any earlier, you can contact HP to get them.

  Hello

  This means that your hard disk contains an error, or the start-up phase damaged operating system. If you have any bootable media, you must visit certain computer services near you.

  Maybe just an idea - you have a floppy drive? Maybe you have inserted the floppy in the floppy drive. If the answer is Yes - Remove the floppy disk and restart your computer.

• My computer has stopped downloading of updates due to an era 8007000 b. What does that mean?

  MY computer has stopped downloading of updates due to an era 8007000 b. What does that mean? Donald strickland

  Hello donaldstrickland,

  Thank you for using Microsoft answers Forums.

  Solution:

  Windows Update, Error 8007000 b

  If you receive the 8007000 b error when you try to install updates for Windows 7, the Windows file system transaction log is damaged. The transaction log is used by the Windows file system to recover when a file error occurs. To correct this error of update, you clear the log. Here's how:

  To clear the file system transaction log

  1. click on the Start button and in the search box, type command prompt.

  2. in the list of results, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  3. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER. (This command assumes that drive C is the drive where Windows 7 is installed. If Windows is installed on another drive, change the drive accordingly letter.)

  true fsutil resource setautoreset C:\

  4. you should see a message saying that the operation was completed successfully. If this is not the case, check your spelling and try again.

  5 Type Exit and press ENTER to close the administrator: command prompt.

  6. restart your computer.

  7. download and install the update again.

   

  That should solve the problem.
  

  
  Thank you.

  305 error code is a failure of the complete (Full) disk Self Test (DST) and would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

  If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disk replaced - you can check the status of your warranty here.

  If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

  If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, please let me know - include the full model number and the laptop Nr - see here for an explanation.

• that means 'dirty volume' after running disk check? What steps?

  After having problems starting up my computer (Windows XP, SP 3), check the automatically executed drive.  The phase of verification of files indicated "dirty volume". What does that mean and what should be done?  All other controls were normal, and the PC starts normally on next attempt off. PC is Dell Optiplex 745, 4 GB of RAM, two disks (C = 250 GB, E = 500 GB).

  Hi AllStr8Talk,
   
  The dirty bit is set for two main causes - a software such as your abnormal termination problem, or a more serious hardware problem which can indicate a failing drive. It's this bit salty which, during the transfer of data, tells your computer to run the command chkdsk at startup (autochk).
   
  You can check the status of your bit of impurity of a window using command prompt Fsutil: dirty command.
  For more information, see:
  Fsutil: dirty
   
  Once a volume was marked as dirty, the only way to clear the dirty bit is to run "chkdsk/r" or "chkdsk/p" when the volume is not in use.  The only way a volume can not be used while Windows XP is just starting to load or from the Windows XP Recovery Console.

• That means this bucket of fault: fault bucket 0x9F_3_IMAGE_stwrt.sys type 0

  Hello

  My laptop which has Windows Vista installed on it; restarts when I click on 'close' or 'sleep '. The diagnosis tells me that there is a problem with my sound card. I don't want to disable the sound card, and there is no new updates or drivers. In the event handler, I met a blue screen with the following fault bucket event: 0x9F_3_IMAGE_stwrt.sys, type 0. What does that mean?

  Thanks in advance!

  DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE bug control has a value of 0x0000009F. This bug check indicates that the driver is in an inconsistent or invalid power state.

  Stwrt.sys is the Sigmatel Audio driver.

• IM only get a full load of 70% on my battery now, does that mean my battery is to expire?

  IM only get a full load of 70% on my battery now, does that mean my battery is to expire?

  Hello

  Check with support from the manufacturer of their books online and the drivers and their forums system
  (as applicable) for known issues. Some manufacturer issued BIOS and other updates to help the battery
  problems.

  Control Panel control - plan change Options - power plans - power - advanced settings
  Parameters for the drainage and the use of parameters (this is how much to use and not how much or how)
  long to load).

  In fact, what causes a lot of wear on a battery empties it too low on several occasions. With today
  systems overload are not a problem.

  Here are some tips to help and troubleshoot battery issues.

  Old battery? Unplug the power to the computer - remove the battery and clean the contacts with a pencil
  eraser (do not use this, if your battery is fine slots - just clean up the edges of the knife which fit in)
  them and be careful). Batteries are old, or it could be a problem with the computer.
  Check with the support of the machine system, and many of them have on line forums.

  New Lithium-Ion type battery usually last longer if you do not unload then less than 30%
  However on a laptop that not extend their life a lot. Best is to use the a/c adapter
  When this is possible.

  I use the free version of BatteryBar to monitor my battery. Click on the green button on the
