  SMART is a technology on newer computers that allows the computer to monitor the health of hard drives in your computer. Something happened to one of your readers that detects the smart as a problem, and she's trying to warn you proactively to this topic before it fails.

  It may be also that you have installed a very old hard drive that does not support the CHIP and the monitor reports that it can not read the drive status.

  So depending on your level of knowledge and experience, you can watch to replace the hard disk that is reported, or you can disable SMART followed to make the message disappears. The second option but then means if it is really a failure, it is likely any work stoppage or corrupted so data you do note to solve.

• ? Primary Master Hard Disk S.M.A.R.T. Bad Status. WARNING: Return immediately-up your data and replace your hard drive.

  When I start my computer, an error page appears. At the bottom of the page it says, "Primary Master Hard Disk S.M.A.R.T. Status Bad." WARNING: Return immediately-up your data and replace your hard drive. Press F1 for Setup, F2 to continue"I was just pressing F2 and then it starts normally, but whenever I start my computer, the same page comes up.

  Is this serious or it could be something minor? Do you have any suggestions? What does that mean? What should I do? I followed some information in the forums of someone who has had the same problem and finally, they fixed them, they said that when they made a prior microsoft update what they where missing a Parcer.

  Note: I tried to save my data before, but something goes wrong and the backup will not be completed.

  You can download the program for diagnotics HUtil Samsung http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/support/downloads/Hutil210_iso_for_CDROM_drive.zip

  It's an ISO image then unzip the file and write the ISO image to a CD.

  Then restart the PC and booting with the CD. To do this, you must change the priority/boot order in the BIOS to boot from the CD first.

  Once you have started the program HUtil it will detect your hard drive Samsung. Select the hard disk.

  Enter the main Menu on the tool. Go into the menu of the tool and enter Auto diagnosis. Enable diagnostics to run, once done it will ask you if you want to perform a surface analysis - enter Yes. The analysis of surface will take some time to complete. If errors are found, it reported.

  Once more I recommend you backup your data as soon as possible, preferably before executing HUtil program.

  For more information on the program of HUtil you can go here: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/support/utilities/Support_HUTIL.html

  Write when the cache is enabled: when data are written back to the hard drive, it is written in the cache that is much faster to actually write to the hard drive. An acknowledgement of receipt is then sent by saying that the data has been written on the hard disk, when in fact it does not. In this way so that the data is actually being written to the hard drive to the rest of the system can continue to work. However memory cache is volatile, if the power goes off, the data in the cache is destroyed and if it has not been written to disk hard and yet he's lost.

  If your settings are correct. Usually the drives are configured for performance and the write cache is enabled. While flash drives and memory cards are configured for the fast-moving and write cache is disabled.

• Hard disk of laptop HP G7 gone bad, how to install Windows 8?

  HP Pavilion G7-2269wm

  Recovery disks were lost, not sure if it works even without the original hard drive.

  I heard that the product key is embedded in the BIOS.

  How can I go about installing of Windows 8 in a new hard drive?

  I've seen 8 posted here for download Windows OEM versions, is there any where I can get an OEM version for this particular model?

  UPDATE: OK, I ran a bad sector repair tool, I can now access the desktop if it's very slow and it seems that I can't do much, he won't let me do a search, I can't go to the recovery of the system to create recovery discs.  CAN I put the hard drive in an external enclosure, and I can access the drive from there.  I can also start up to advanced startup options.

  Is there anyway to create discs of recovery by the HD being mounted in an external enclosure, either the advanced boot menu?

  Your key works with this ISO standard. Google limits the number of times where it can be downloaded every day then you may need to make several attempts.

• My Hard disk drive (C) is full and can not save on my local drive (D)... Help!

  I can't save anything else on my computer and I feel as if I had barely whether registered here initially. My (C) drive is almost full and my local disk drive (D) has so much space to this topic, but I don't know how to do as my default player. I tried following the suggestions of the people online, but nothing helped. Can anyone help?

  The first thing to do is run the disk cleanup utility. Instructions here.

  Then, try to move some files and folders. There are a few different folders, you can move from the C drive to the D drive. So let me suggest you only start moving your files, documents, music, photos and video from C to d. here are the instructions. You need to do one at a time. To find them, in Solution Explorer, expand the C drive, find your name under users and all your personal files are there.

  After these two things, tell me how much space you have on C.

• installation and replacement of hard disk in the computer hp mini 110

  I need help replacing a hard drive on my computer hp mini 110.

  HP Mini 110

  Windows XP sp3

  I just posted a question about the installation of the operating system.  Fixed that issue but found another.  I installed the operating system and everything was fine.  I started to install the drivers and applications, and after you have installed hp applications the pc has restarted and came up with a message saying:

  PRI Master Hard Disk: S.M.A.R.T. Status BAD, Backup and replace, press F1 to resume.

  PRI Master: WDC WD1600BEVT-60ZCT1 13.01A13 ULTRA DMA MODE 5 S.M.A.R.T. Capable and BAD Status

  I press F1 and it started.  I was still a few drivers requiring an installation.  Since I've installed just everything, there was not much to save.

  I installed a different driver and rebooted and this time I hit F1 it didn't start.  I got a black page with a line of blinking cursor and nothing else happens.

  After some research, I've seen it's a bad hard drive.

  My question is:

  Is this something that can be replaced at home.  I can read the instructions.  What I need to get the same hard drive, or are there others that will work?  If I can do it at home, where can I find instructions to replace it and what is the best place to get the hard drive.  Is this what I need to know.

  Thanks for anyone's help.  I'm sure I look like an idiot, but it's something I've not done in a laptop.  I replaced and internal hard drive in a desktop computer.  I remember myself set to land and out and plug in another.  I had the chance then because the computer had 2 hard drives.

  I guess I'll need to reformat the drive and start over again with the installation of the operating system etc.

  Would I be able to upgrade and install vista or windows 7?

  Any help is appreciated.

  Hi, Tamara:

  Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop, which also lets you complete the You-Tube video.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01895806.PDF

  You can buy a 2.5 "laptop hard drive size 160 GB SATA II, should not exceed 500 GB.

  You can get a 5 400 rpm model or a model of 7 200 RPM.

  The difference between the two is that you will get better performance (faster seek times) a disc of 7 200 RPM.

  However, it will be at the expense of the life of the battery between charges.

  So, what you choose, it's up to you.

  Here is a link to a site that sells hard drives of laptop.

  They have great prices and there are a lot of feedback from customers that may be useful for you to decide which one to go with.

  According to specifications, your computer can run Windows 7 well.

  I recommend edit you your message and remove any reference to the discussion of smuggling copies of Windows 7. These assignments are not in accordance with the rules of the forum.

  In addition, please keep in mind that a lot of these free copies of Windows can be loaded with traps that can steal your personal data and do other nasty things, including perhaps turn your PC into a Bot who committed illegal activities.  It is not worth it for me to install such illegally of is software and possibly have the bust of the FBI to the bottom of my door and arrest me for something that I didn't know that was going on with my PC.

  It seems that the recovery XP disks are available for your PC, even if the link is broken, so if you want to reinstall XP, contact HP by telephone and you can get a set for less than $20.00.

  Otherwise, you can get a game online site for $27.00 + shipping costs.

  You get a legitimate copy of Windows OEM 7 (relatively) cheap at the link below.

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16832116983

  Or you can pay double that and get the commercial version, which you can transfer to another PC. With the OEM edition, you can only use it once.

• Capacity of the hard disk for NX9030

  Hello

  I have a laptop HP Compaq NX9030. The hard disk starts to show errors so I intend to replace it. Does anyone know if the laptop has a limited capacity for replacement hard drives?

  Thank you

  Dave

  You have the Intel 855 chipset. In order to launch a hard drive larger than 137 GB, you need help for 48-bit Large Block Addressing in the chipset, BIOS and operating system. I find contradictory information on the ability of the chipset 855 doing of 48bits LBA. I also wonder if ever taken HP worth of produce a BIOS that would make 48 bit LBA in this model being the biggest hard drive offered 60 gigs. In other words, I think you should assume 120 GB is size max hard drive you can use and the only way I can think to prove otherwise is to buy the largest disk and install it. Windows XP Sp1a and superior does not large drives.

• Re: Canvio external HARD disk. What is the preloaded software?

  Just installed this unit of 500 GB and there are two files pre-installed on it. One, "autorun" to 34 bytes and the second 'software offers"to 15.6 MB. Autorun does not work and software offer is just a screen that looks like its intended to show the contents of the HARD disk, but does not work. You can delete these two files? No information in the literature on each file.

  I do not have this external HARD drive, but as far as I know Toshiba offers software to backup very uncomfortable. After installing the software, you have several options that you can use for data backup or data storage.

  I assume you have not be able to install this software, right?

• 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

• External hard disk compression

  -What this means: "compress this drive to save space?  I have a HDD external I store most of my files and data. It's the drive that I back up my files on the computer, just in case I should need to restore my system.

  Can compress a disk drive (my external HDD) create problems with the performance of my system.  I apologize: I have Windows Vista Basic Home Addition.  Pls advise.

  Thanks in advance for your attention to this matter,

  Pookie Bear

  Hello Pookie Bear,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

  Compression of your hard disks of data gives you more space, however, you will see a performance decrease as when the computer needs to access the data, it must first unzip, write to it, then recompress it.

  In addition, you encounter the risk of data corruption.  I don't know the size of your external hard drive, but if it's big enough, you shouldn't worry about compressing.

  Please let us know status.  Thank you!

• Fusion is stopped because the virtual hard disk capacity is reached

  I run Windows XP Pro in a virtual machine with the German Fusion 3.1.1 on my MacBook 13 "with Mac OS X 10.6.2.

  When I try to start Windows the VM said: "VMware Fusion has the virtual machine is stopped, because the capacity of the hard drive (40 GB) is almost reached."

  But this Windows disk management in the first partition 'Win XP Pro' 15 GB to 30 GB are free. And on the second partition 'Install' 8 GB to 10 GB are free.

  I took the snapshot on the virtual machine and have managed hard disk cleanup. But it does not help. Fusion said I do free 1.2 MB capacity of the virtual hard disk. How can I do this, when the merger does not start?

  The opportunity to make more the virtual hard disk of 40 GB to 50 or 60 GB is blocked, I first have to delete the snapshot. But the snapshot is deleted.

  What can I make Fusion work again?

  I doubt that what you quoted is the message itself, so it would be more useful if you attach the .log files.  See information for VMware Fusion to help with that.  Howevere...

  I bet that the message is more like "VMware Fusion has suspended this virtual machine because the disk on which the virtual machine is stored is almost full. To continue, free at least MB of disk space. "and as such, you must do exactly what means the message and that is free space hard disk Macintosh not space inside the VHD.  After all, it's the Mackintosh HD stored on the Virtual Machine, isn't?

• More primary hard disk for Qosmio X 300

  I don't want to lose the o/s of Windows Vista with phone number matching the label owner under

  It of also no problem to install Windows on the new HARD drive. For this, you can use the recovery disc.

  Of course, the easiest and fastest is to clone the HARD disk.
  I found a free program called HDClone Free Edition. I didn't use the program again, but it should also work as the other programs.
  For example, I use Acronis image for years. It s not expensive and I never have and problems with the program. It works fast and I never had a faulty image or something else.

• Capacity of the hard disk on the Qosmio G20-139

  I recently bought the notebook of Toshiba Qosmio g20-139, announced as having an 80 GB hard drive. Check the properties of the drive C: I think capacity is 69.8 GB. And in the properties of the device, it gives the Volume 71547 MB (I presume it's 71,547 GB).

  Does anyone can ease my mind explaining to me why I have not been 'ripped off '?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I'm not 100% sure but I think this part of the HARD disk is not partitioned and it comes preinstalled Qosmioplayer. This player doesn't need all the space, but if recording on this drive is available, I presume that this registered program is also recorded on this unpartitioned part.
