• HP Envy Ultrabook 6 t-1000 CTO: HARD drive is not displayed

  Hello.

  I had the Windows Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) once or twice when using simple everyday applications on my Ultrabook. The results were either not different on Mode without failure. After awhile, I started having 'No Bootable disc' error while starting up. Recovery (press F11) will not appear so. I tried the HP Diagnostics (by pressing F2 at startup) and Test the hard drive as well as the Test of memory shows PASSED on the formats of short or long.

  I tried the following:

  1. I did some research on Google and entered in the BIOS/Insyde utility (by pressing F10 at startup), loaded default installation (by pressing F9), saved changes and did a restart, but I get the error again.

  2. I downloaded Windows 7 64-bit Microsoft store, created a boot USB and plugged. I was able to access the Windows Installation Page, but he wouldn't show my hard drive at all.

  3. I find the support page of my product on the site HP and downloaded the latest drivers, put it in a USB device and booted up the system from the Windows Setup disc. On the page where it was supposed to show my internal hard drives, it showed only USB drives and there is an option "Load Driver" I clicked on and selected the driver files I downloaded from the HP website. Everything was going well until I chose iaStor.inf... this time, the system has hung up and the BSOD appeared with an error stating the file 'iaStor.sys '.

  My questions:

  1 if diagnostic Tests are passed, I can assume that the material is well?

  2. Although I already placed an order for HP recovery discs, I doubt if it could help because my HARD drive drivers seem to be missing. What is your opinion?
  3. is there a way to reset zero/reload drivers BIOS/Insyde utility?

  My system features:
  Laptop model: PC portable HP Envy 6
  Product no.: A9G58AV (the back panel laptop says A9G30AV)
  {Information}
  Processor: 2nd generation Intel Core i5 - 2467 M CPU @ 1.6 GHz + Intel HD Graphics 3000
  BIOS version: F.0D
  Total memory: 4 GB
  Operating system: Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
  HARD drive: 500 GB 5400 rpm SATA RAW 7mm hard drive with 32 GB WSSD faster reduction of the hard disk Cache

  Unfortunately at that I disagree with Paul and I think that you may be looking for a bad motherboard, but we would like first to try to remove the disc of WSSD 32 gig.

  Here is the Manual:

  Repair manuals

  See Page 40. Unfortunately, this model is a little difficult to disassemble, but measures are set out in the manual. If it is still under warranty, you can't do that. If the hard drive passes the test of F2 then I tend to think that it's not the hard drive.

• Satellite U945-S4110 replacement SSD HARD drive

  Hello

  Recently in my ultrabook, I replaced the drive HARD SSD TOSHIBA Q Series Pro 256 GB.

  For the SSD to work and to be able to install the system, I had to remove the second disk, mSATA SSD 32 GB, because the system does not want to install.

  Because I am a passionate fan, I want to ask for advice on how to force them to work the two discs. What are the steps, or what are the programs should be used.

  Thanks in advance for your help and your patience

  I guess you want to install the system using the reader of external CD/DVD or start from the key USB flash memory.
  Right?
  In both cases, you must disable the option 'safe start' available in the BIOS.

  In addition in the case of installation of Windows 7, you must pass the UEFI boot mode option to the CSM.
  If you want to install Win 8, you can still use the UEFI mode.

  I have the Satellite L655-1HE. I created a "HARD drive recovery" through "create recovery media. On the contrary, CD/DVD, I put it in a USB Flash drive. But when I used it, a mistake was "copy of splitpart or the Canadian Red Cross has failed!" After that, I can't boot my laptop more. There is a message "BOOTMNGR missing."

  Whatever the problem, if the recovery is unsuccessful, I recommend the following steps:

• Update hard drive to disk hybird / HP Envy 15.6 (DV6-7226NR)

  I just bought a refurbished HP ENVY 15.6 (DV6-7226NR), (what has not happened yet, so I don't know if I have the installation of Windows 8 media). I want to move the hard drive to a hybrid drive. Couple of questions, because I'm not the original owner, and the laptop was bought refurbished, am I allowed to reinstall Windows 8, in view of the change of material. If it is allowed, what procedure should I follow. I would be grateful some links to information I'm looking for.

  You'll have to ask the company refurbished if there is a partition on the laptop recovery.

  If there is, then you should be able to make a recovery usb flash drive to allow you to reinstall the operating system. If the recovery partition exists or not will be between you and the renovation company.

  My preferred method during the upgrade of the hard disks is to use a cloning software and a usb cable to SATA to clone the existing to the new hard drive.

• HP Envy M6: My HARD drive is not bad on my computer? I have reloaded Win 8 and upgraded to Win 8.1 but he keeps crashing

  Hi need help and answers from an expert!

  My HP Envy M6 Recenly has stopped working correctly, so I decided to recover as soon as possible.  She still had the same problems, so I decided to restore factory with recovery USB flash drive I did.  Always had the same problem happens after I rebooted 8 Win and improved to 8.1.  It would work for a few minutes and stop working I used chkdsk and it says it fixed a few problems with the drive.

  I went through the same steps another 3 times!  After each time that once I had that he would be running again after a clean reinstall.  I would like to run chkdsk and it looks like he fixed some error, but last time, it wouldn't or couldn't find some files to run and crashed.  I tried loading Acronis and tried to reinstall the backup from there but that also failed to correct the problem.  I came to the conclusion that my HD is physically wrong?

  I guess the recovery process would reformat the partitions before you reinstall so it's not a logic error (software)?  From the recovery partition, the recovery Flash disk media and recovery software acronis can fix this, I can only assume, there is a problem with the drive itself?

  Is there a way to check this?  I don't mind replacing the drive to a SSD, so this isn't a problem, but I can't seem to find a product key.  Nothing printed on the bottom.  I read somewhere that it is now integrated with the motherboard bios so can I just use the recovery media that I did on a flash drive?

  Also, I have my backup file but I could never find the location of the image my wife loaded as the photo of "lock" screen which I do not have a copy of.  I have the backup files for windows 8.1 by Acronis and according to me, a Windows backup file on a backup drive, but I was wondering if these "locked screen hidden image" would be held somewhere in these data?  It is not under the images and I have never been able to find or understand where windows keeps this image.  I used the search without success.

  Of course, this is not critical, but I hate losing this particular image.  I hope it's keep somewhere in my back upward and when restoring with a new drive hard I can reload the backup and restore.

  So I really ned knowledge step by step: my HD is bad?  How can I check without having to spend hours to reload only to fail?

  Why chkdisk does not?  Or should I simply replace HD and if so what can I use the new disk recovery media and product ID will be accessible through the motherboard?

  I intend to upgrade to win 10, but I need Win 8 loading first, then move to 8.1 then move to Win 10?  Also in the future if it crashes how can I recover to win 10? Since it is free now but will not be later.  The upgrade will allow me to make a copy (a copy) to win 10?

  A lot of questions, but please provide the fastest solution to my problems and concerns.

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello fmhawaii ;
  
  I read your post on your PC crashing and wanted to help.

  It certainly seems that your hard drive has failed.  Some PC allows the drive to check in the BIOS: test a hard drive in the BIOS. HP® customer support

  If that confirms that the disc is bad, then you will need to replace it.

  As for activation, you are right in that, with Win8x machines, the product key is embedded in the motherboard UEFI firmware, however, the instructions in this link, show you how to recover: find product - key for Windows 8

  When you restore from recovery media, which is supposed to automatically read product key, so you will not have to enter something to activate reinstall it.  My guess is that the drive problems that prevented from happening.

  Acronis allows you to mount an image file by using a drive letter, and once you do this, you should then be able to browse through the content to find the file you want.  However, depending on what part of the logon icon changed, it might be embedded image in a Windows system file, and unless there is a separate copy of this image, it will be very difficult to recover.  IF you Google it, you might be able to find downloadable tools for disassembly of this file and subseuent extraction of this file.

  I wouldn't hurry to Win10, but if you choose to follow this path, don't forget to make a new advance Acronis backup, then you can return to a system of Win8x of work if something is wrong - as the Win10 GoBack function is known to be unreliable.
  
  Good luck

• DV7-7333 CL. : need help formatting has replaced hard drive in my laptop

  Greetings,

  I received instructions from HP another volunteer on a bad hard drive replacement. I replaced the hard drive with a new and need someoe to please guide me how to format my new drive hard back to the WIN 10 I had installed on the former. I also buy a 22 pin adapter usb to SATA.

  Another agent said that Windows 10 can be reinstalled on a new drive hard if your installation has been activated before. The activation servers Microsoft just know your computer and will be reactive. You must Access the media creation tool and have it make a bootable DVD player or you need a usb thumb drive at least 4 GB.

  I am in Germany but still do not know the language well enough and could not find a tool for creating Windows Media version in English free repacement.

  I don't know what to do to format my new hard drive... Please help!

  Thank you.

  PROBLEM SOLVED (FINALLY)! I just wanted you to know that we have finally understood why the data on the computer with the media to WIN creation tool not was not download on thumb drive = Firewall! Not sure if everyone will have this problem but in collaboration with Windows agent, I happened to see a pop-up window saying something on the analysis of data not allowing not to download. It is therefore sometimes necessary to temporarily disable all firewalls and Web titles before starting the download.

  Follow the instructions of man Las Vegas thread above to create a bootable USB Thumb Drive to replace newly hard drive with OS Windows 10. HOWEVER, the following was not mentioned in his instructions, and not all computers can do this extra step so keep the following in mind if your USB key does not complete the upload.

  Again, to download data, I downloaded on the work computer, a USB key, I had to we need to temporarily disable all the security features on the work computer until you have completed the download of the WIN Media Creation Tool on the thumb drive process (this includes your private web anti-virus, we can use AND/OR the WIN Firewall and other security features available on the led computer. )

  I hope this helps those who have similar problems.

  Thanks again for all your help man Las Vegas thread!

  Kind regards

• New hard drive (301, 3F0 Messages)

  I recently bought a HGST 1 TB hard drive (2.5-inch, 7200 RPM) upgrade for my G6-2218NR Pavilion (8 64-bit Windows). My problem is that, from the start of my laptop, I got the message;

  "SMART disk error."
  INTELLIGENT drive control hard to detected an imminent failure... etc."

  I'm the given code 301 and the option of F2 for System Diagnostics, as well as "to continue booting.

  If I select keep booting I get the following message 3F0

  "Boot Device not found.
  Please install an operating system on your hard drive. »

  If I select F2 I can run the memory Test and the check of the hard drive. I get a SUCCESS message after you run the memory test, but try to run check the hard drive, I get the message, "SMART Check: NOT AVAILABLE." "DST short: caveat."

  Also, despite are not I can also access the utility of configuration with F10.

  So, Ive got a few questions. First of all, is it possible for my new drive hard be DOA? Second, if it is not, how to re - install Windows 8? And finally, it would be prudent to put back the original hard drive in the laptop, until I have a solution?

  YES, it's quite possible for a new disk in DOA. Download the diagnosis of HGST drive and create a bootable CD. Reinstall the 'new' hard drive and test it with the diagnostic CD. If it fails, return the disc to another.

  If you have not already created it your personal set of HP or an HP Recovery USB Flash Drive Recovery discs, please return the original to the computer hard drive. Then create the support of HP recovery for your computer.

  You will need to use the HP recovery support to return the computer to a factory state after installing a new disk.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• Need to replace my hard drive, no response from hp in 5 days

  Hello

  I bought a HP Pavilion Touchsmart 15b146ef in France a few months (still under warranty) and my hard drive now dead. I ran a test drive hard short check DST failed with following failure ID: 60D5XV-6MQ6TA-MFPWW1-60QX03. It is an error 303, which means that I have no choice but to replace my HARD drive. The problem is that I'm in Sweden for my studies and no HP is able to help me (in France and Sweden).
  What can I do? Does anyone have a direct contact by email that I could use to talk with the assistance of HP Sweden?

  Thanks for reading and responding if possible

  I can't reach the HP Sweden Helpdesk (I tried 5 long days). Do you have any contact? Sorry but NO, I have no information other than what is publicly available contact.

  And I don't have any driver CD/DVD on my computer, how can I do without having to buy an external CD/DVD drive? On today's computers, a 32 GB USB Flash Drive can replace the recovery disks. If the computer can start again and the recovery partition is not damaged, you may be able to create a recovery USB Flash drive.

• crashed hard drive... need help with original windows 7 Home premium 64-bit on new h.d.

  a win 7 64bits h.p... a h.d. failure... installed a new h.d. which had vista (sp2) h.p. on and I want my windows 7 back... is there anyway to give the product I.D. is on the side of my Tower for the microsoft 7 windows that has crashed and I would like to download a copy on the new hard drive? IM wondering if I need a proof of ownership or what anyone like that I bought from a friend's computer and its probably not in my name... I was wondering if this is a problem major and if theres nothing I can do... maybe download a new copy and just enter the product ID I don't know... IM really not too tech saavy... any help would be greatly appreciated... Thank you

  So what you want to do is put windows 7 to replace windows vista on your new hard drive?

  Step 1: Download the ISO file.
  You will need a cache of DVD or a USB flash drive (3 GB or better), if you insert a DVD, then it will ask you if you want to use it with a DVD player or a usb flash drive. Check the box to a DVD player or something similar to this. With a flash drive, you don't have to worry about setting up or anything.
  Download the ISO of windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.
  Here is the link:http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-58997.iso
  Be patient as it can take an hour to download on a medium speed wifi connection.
  Step 2: Burn the disk image to a DVD
  Now that you will burn the ISO on DVD once it's done. To do than go to where ever you downloaded the ISO on your computer and right-click on the ISO file. Now click on burn the disk image.
  Make sure your DVD is inserted. When asked what disc burner, select the drive that you inserted the DVD in. If you have only 1 DVD player you should have only 1 option. Now hit burn and go get coffee or something while you wait.
  Burn the image on a USB flash drive
  But if you don't have a DVD, you can always use a USB flash drive.
  You need to download Universal USB install 
  Now open universal USB install and it will ask you to choose a Linux distro. Keep scrolling down until you find "software based on other or non-linux".
  Select windows 7 Setup from there. Now step 2 hit browse and find where you downloaded the ISO image. Now, select your USB flash drive letter. It takes only 1 option. And click on create. And when it asks you if you want to format? Click Yes.
  DON'T FORGET TO BACKUP YOUR FLASH DRIVE PROBABLY ALL THAT FILES WILL BE DELETED IN THIS PROCESS
  Step 3: Boot from your DVD or USB
  Restart your computer, and while it loads the bios, it must be said somewhere boot options. And there will be a F1, F2, F3, or some F key to enter the boot options.
  After that, select the USB flash drive or a DVD drive to start. You will get to the windows installation and you can install windows 7.
  It will ask you your product key. It is in any way illegal.

• Another corrupt ESXi USB flash drive

  I have a USB flash drive as boot ESXi disk get corrupted, I thought it was a fluke, so I threw away the USB key and reinstalled ESXi on a new USB flash drive. Well, after a little more than a year, this flash drive has been corrupted as well as ESXi follow the start-up procedure.

  Are consumers just don't required to act as a start-up for ESXi readers forever on the servers of USB flash drives? My actual VMs are on the hard disks on the server so I guess that the USB flash drive was not getting a lot of work too far than go of reads/writes. I know major integrators offer ESXi built in running off some flash internal drive so I assumed that flash was reliable. What is the difference between these types of enterprise flash drives and consumer flash drives? Or it is just a risk for all flash drives and it is preferable to install ESXi for one SSD or HARD drive?

  I always suggest installing ESXi on a flash drive of business as sellers to test these players for the highest reliability and performance while consumer flash drives are not tested.

  Consumer grade flash drive are low grade MLC (multi-level cell) based provide the alternative and low-cost storage adequate all-in-business level kitsuse flash drive boast of a higher level of performance and more

• Question about creating a recovery (file system) USB flash drive

  Hello and happy new year to all, (I'm from greeece, sorry for the mistakes of language possible)

  (Pavilion dv6-6c01ev - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - bought 08-21-12)

  I want to create a USB stick recovery, and I just bought a USB flash drive 32 GB 3.0 for this reason.

  I've never done it before, but I have read how, according to the this page.

   

  My question is:

  What file system must be the USB key, before the decision-making process? FAT32 or NTFS ?

  Bought, thati USB file system is FAT32 by default.

  I already read that on the page above: 'a message of Recovery Manager opens indicating that the flash drive will be formatted. Click OK to format the USB key and continue. »

  but I would like to have, and a more definite answer from someone who knows better.
  

  So, does change the NTFS file system.

  or should I now start the manufacturing process of the recovery USB flash drive as it is (FAT32)

  Thank you for your help

   

   

  I have already created the recovery USB flash drive, and formatted Recovery Manager the disk before the process,

  and at the end, when the recovery files was written and verifyed.

  I look at the file system of the USB flash drive, and it's NTFS...

  I worried for nothing...

  Thans anyway...
