• intelligent control of hard disk detected an imminent failure

  Intelligent control of hard disk detected an imminent failure on disk 1. I have a Pavilion g7.1081nr laptop.

  Hello

  If you start getting SMART errors, this would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  If you can still boot into Windows, I strongly suggest to do a backup of all your personal files, etc., as soon as you can.

  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, let me know.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  It all started when the computer would go blank right after startup, the HP logo would come upward, then 'auto repair preparation", more... Just empty. After reading the forums online, I did all the possible troubleshooting steps and at the end I did the SMART test... the result was:

  Verification of the processor: past

  Failure ID: RGD7MK-7HV7RC-9XJ16K-60BB03

  After obtaining these results, when I turn on the computer, it gives me a blue screen saying: drive SMART 1 error (301) and told me to test once again, that I did and got the same result as above.

  Here is some info from the computer:

  Thanks for your help!

  Hi there @Brugalgirl

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that your computer does not start successfully, and you found a Smart Drive 301 error code. I'm happy to help you with this.

  I checked the ID of the failure, you've posted and verifies that the error. Unfortunately, this means that your hard drive needs to be replaced.  In view of the fact that the system does not boot, it is likely that the hard drive is completely unreadable, but depending on what you have on this subject, it may be worth your while to check with a local computer service shop and see if they can help to recover data from your hard drive.

  If your system is relatively new and may be covered by the warranty, or if you wish to fix with HP for the guarantee system, you can call in hotline to make these arrangements. In this case, please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a folder for your question and contact HP. If you do not live in the United States / Canada, please click on the link below to get contact information for your region.

  Otherwise you can look at a replacement hard drive yourself. If you have a set of recovery media, then you already have a factory image HP, which allows you to put in place a new hard drive with your original operating system. If is no longer, you have a set or did not have a set of recovery media, so you can see if there are not yet available for your model.

  HP computers - get HP recovery disks or HP USB recovery disc

• This who should I insert for "installation media" interviewed "load the drivers for your hard disks?

  I am trying to repair my installation of Vista Ultimate 64 bit (my system does not boot into Vista at the moment - something wrong).  I am running the recovery by booting from the Vista installation disc in my CD/DVD drive.  When the System Recovery Options screen appears, there is no operating system is displayed.  I wonder to 'load the drivers for your hard disks' by inserting the installation media.  The wizard goes into a mode of navigation, but I have no idea of what he seeks.  The only drive I've delivered with my hard drive, installed months ago and works well so far, doesn't seem to have the type of the file of the search dialog box.  Please help - what is needed to move forward with this repair?

• How to share the root of a hard disk in Win7?

  I am able to share a folder, but cannot share the root of a hard disk. Homegroup is off.  In addition, even if I have the password to 'OFF' I always get invited to do since the XP computers on the network, but not Vista computers. Weird?

  Win7 computers have full access to the C:\ root on Vista and XP in network of machines. But on computers Win7 the C:\ root is blocked. How to open readers for full access. I worked with permissions in fsmgmt.msc without a bit of luck. What is going on. It is not that difficult.

  I have several hardrives with hundreds of directories and must share each individually. There must be a way around this?

  Why everyone does not assume that the implications of the root of a drive of sharing are unknown. I get it. I Armi it. But, Yes... I want to share the root of my records. It's like a big giant microsoft diaclaimer whenever I hear it.

  So I thought to it. Finally!

  OK, that's the problem with Windows 7: I had possession of the disk on the local computer (by default), but this is not enough. I had to give "everyone" the drive to another computer to access property. That means logging in inspired by the network from another machine to Win7 computer, you property as "everyone" and therefore, the authorization to access the drive.

  So, here is what I did. Right-click on the hard drive from windows Explorer. Go to properties. Click Security. Click on change. "Everyone" add to the Group and the permissions you want. Then, go to sharing and share the drive as you normally would. The root of the drive will be accessible on the network.

  I understand it now, but it is poorly explained in documents I've read. I spent hours of research on this and cannot understand why MS makes it so hard to share a drive on a network. Totally absurd.

  I hope this helps others trying to do the same thing. In a small home network, it is very common need to share multiple disks in the root of c:\.

• On the Satellite C - Windows HARD disk failure has detected a HARD disk problem

  Since 2 days have been making repeated dialog "Windows detected a hard disk problem", warning of potential failures of the disc so back up, what I did. Disk in question is a Toshiba MK-5065GSXN.

  As a non-tech user, my instinct is that a new laptop is a better choice than to call Toshiba support for a laptop warranty (2 years) out of.

  On the other hand there may be a simple software fix. The opinion or advice welcome

  Hello

  The message says that something is wrong with the HARD drive.
  It might be possible that your HARD drive will die sooner or later so his need to backup data on another HARD drive, disk or flash memory.

  Finally, I must say you n don't need to buy a new laptop just because your HARD drive starts to hurt work in such cases purchase a new HARD drive and replace it
  HARD drive is not very expensive and the replacement of the HARD disk is very easy in your user manual

  PS: what model of laptop you have exactly?

• HP 6c50tx fails control of hard disk HP

  OK, I hope I posted in the appropriate forum.

  I bought the HP DV6 6C50tx in IT show 2012, Singapore.

  I ran the HP Support Assistant, HP hard drive check. He pointed out the hard drive HP as a NECESSARY ACTION

  

  Failure ID: UC6EKH-62B6AK-QFPK01 - 60 QT 03

  The test result

  • INTELLIGENT control. ACTION

  By pressing "necessary action" button to check smart tells me that the has a drvie check smart issure. The smart threshold has been exceeded and the drive may fail in the future.

  I chose "get help" but I got a "improve performance by defragmenting your hard drive in Windows Help and support" (?)

  • Fragmentation: OK
  • Space: OK

  This means that I have to send in my book to change the hard drive? I noticed that my computer has been creeping over the months, but without apparent reason

  I am running windows 7 Home premium 64-bit (stock OS), with 8 GB of ram.

  BTW, this PC also has a wifi card problem. Even with the settings changed to high performance. More details on this problem in another thread, I created months ago

  I've still warranty until next year.

  Any help will be appreciated

  Hello

  The code for the HARD disk Smart failure means certainly should be replaced under warranty - what happens normally is that HP will send you a new HARD drive for which you pay a deposit - this deposit is then returned to your account when the failed drive is returned.

  However, if you also have problems with the WLAN card, it may be better to send the machine and have corrected both issues at the same time.

  To contact HP for warranty repairs, start here.

• Satellite U405D-S2874: Question on the potential problem of hard disk

  Trying to fix a Satellite U405D-S2874 for a friend.
  As a first step, that it won't turn. Once I have re-seated hard drive, it turned on and starts very well.

  However, he still intermittently will not be powered from a power off State. I get a few indicators as power, load, etc., but at least I see Satellite logo light up, I know that it won't start/turn on fully and I get nothing on the screen.

  What is a problem with the hard drive, or the connection of drive hard, or...? I was wondering if we buy a new hard drive online, that will fix the problem.

  Thank you
  John

  > What is a problem with the hard drive, or the connection of drive hard, or...? I was wondering if we buy a new hard drive online, that will fix the problem

  I put t think that this problem could be linked to the defective HARD drive.
  Usually, the laptop must be able to turn on and the BIOS splash screen should be visible even if the HARD disk is defective.

  Moreover in most cases a message or underscore flashing appears on the screen if the HARD drive is malfunctioning

  However, it is possible to check the status of the HARD drive.
  Download the tool called Drive Fitness Test and test the HARD drive by using this software.
  If some errors would be detected, then you must replace the HARD drive.

  But if the HARD drive is ok, then I would recommend checking the RAM modules first.
  Test the laptop with a test module. Try the two slots.

  If it would not help you, then a motherboard must be verified but generally it is a work of a technician for laptop

• Help to find the driver on the Satellite A200 (PSAE6) HARD disk controller

  Greetings. This text has been written through a translation program, to try to understand :)

  Problem:
  My friend bought a few days back to herself TOSHIBA Satellite A200 (PSAE6) where it has been established operating system Windows Vista Home. He asked me to change OS on Windows XP Pro. With the first problem I have consulted - have deleted Vista, but to set up XP is not possible due to the absence of the HARD disk controller driver in the OS distribution kit. Windows Installer cannot find the HARD drive. I read that it is necessary to load the driver during Setup, press the F6 key. But a problem I can't find the driver in that.

  We have no disk with drivers that should go with a computer and therefore it is necessary to search independently on the Internet. On the Toshiba site to locate the pilot, it was not possible. Then I came to the Intel site and download "RAID/AHCI - Intel® Matrix Storage Manager» After unpacking I got only «infinst_autol.exe» archive

  Question:
  Where can I download this driver (not a "EXE" format) that can be used during the installation of Windows XP?
  PS: a chipset - Intel PM965 Express

  Thank you

• Migration system on the 4 k-sector HARD disk

  My original 512-byte sector hard disk could not pass the SMART test, so I decided to change it. Bought a new one 2 to HARD drive. But then I discovered that there is a problem cloning partitions to my new drive, because it has the size of sector 4 k.  Is it possible to migrate the system to the new drive? If so could you explain please what I need to do? I'm not really experianced in this case.

  My HP desktop computer is slimline, so I could find the opportunity only one connection - via USB interface (if it is of some importance).

• No HARD disk detected on dv6-3111sa

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6-3111sa provided with win7 x 64 version, everything was great, can not complain. A few days ago, I was playing with a live version of a different operating system, and I didn't pay enough attention to the installation options. I managed to delete the HP partition by accident. Windows would not start after the splash screen, after that, linux has been fine starting and accessing the drive. Do not have recovery discs. I downloaded an iso file of win7 official hoping to use it with my serial number, but it does not find my hard disk and ask drivers. I downloaded all the drivers for my model and put them on a stick, but the Installer do not like them. Hard drive is fine and the C: partition is intact and readable/writable in linux.

  Can I do to solve this problem? I realized I can order recovery disks, but they are 30 quid and I really don't want to pay what I don't know that would work either. Its still in warranty, but I really don't want to take to the store and lose my machine for a few days.

  Thank you very much.

  I think you're on the 'need to buy recovery disk option.  I don't think that you have other options at this point, if you want to use the operating system that you paid for.

  Otherwise, you can use Linux to refer the reader to the CRUDE State and then install Windows to him.

  The problem is that installation you did or started probably chagned inadvertently format the drive to a Linux style format. It will not be recognized by and the Windows operating system until it is in the format RAW or FAT32 / NTFS.

• Changed the original after imaging HARD disk but can get Windows 7 valid

  A SONY VIAO bought in 2010 with a 500 GB hard drive. Started to get those bad guys, messages "imminent HARD drive failure" has created an image using Acronys on a new hard drive of 1 t and traded in. Everything went well until I started getting messages "your computer is not running genuine Windows" (rror code 0xc8000247).  Did all the research, including the call the MS Product Activation Center and the robo-man to give the key that came. Robo-man returned and says invalid key, back to the drawing board (buy W7 for $108, backup all data and programs, install and rebuild the contents of the hard drive). SONY said that they would not help me because I had replaced the hard disk provided with the system. Even though it was about to fail, I should put it back in and call to hide...

  So now what should I do?  I have the product key (from the label under the system), the Windows ID of the information system...
