  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  According to the page of the product HP for your PC, it came not with preinstalled Win10.  THIS means that you have done the upgrade to Win10.

  While Microsoft says there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always return to your BONES and the original installation program within 30 days, the ugly fact of the matter is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when she fails, she can let machines in a State corrupted - that does not always happen , but it happens often enough to be a problem and you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!
  
  If this is not enough, the Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt partition recovery stored by the OEM that built the original machine. It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work.

  The problem you mentioned is usually due to one of two basic problems:
  (1) defective hard drive
  (2) damaged/missing bootloader files
  
  As to the first, please follow the instructions in this link to test your hard drive: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00439024
  
  If that confirms that your drive has failed, then you will need to replace it.  Please report back if this is the case.
  
  As for the second, you need access to a PC for this phase of work in order to create the necessary support to fix your PC boot loader.
  
  Once you have that, please download and create the Win10 installation media from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10
  
  Note that when you download and build install media, the default tool corresponding to what is already installed on your PC (as in home for the House, and 64-bit to 64 - bit).  While you CAN change these settings, are NOT. If you do, the media that results will be different and will force you to enter a NEW product code.
  
  Boot from the media that you have created and follow the instructions in this link: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-advanced-startup-options-boot-windows-10-a.html
  
  You will need to go to the Advanced Options screen and click on startup repair.  You will probably need to run Startup Repair three times for him to fix all the boot loader.
  
  Once completed, your PC should start OK.

  Good luck

• Satellite C660 - 10 d Operating System not found PXE - E61: Media test failure

  I have a Satellite C660 - 10 d, which is part of the 1 year warranty which has suddenly decided it won't start and makes a strange noise that sounds mechanical.

  I tried the options F2 & F11 at startup, but I always return to the same messages some options I try:

  Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller v1.23 (28/07/10)
  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
  Operating system not found.

  I can't go beyond that and get the laptop doesn't work, which leads to my second problem.

  It is under warranty so I thought I would sign in for repair. The serial number is recognized in the section Product Support My. But when I try to enter in the repair section, it is said

  ERROR: serial not valid number.
  Please check and try again.
  Then gives a number to call which only works weekdays.

  So, I have what appears to be a broken laptop that I can currently connect to repair.
  If you are able to help with one of these problems, it would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  I'm quite sure that the problem is related to the defective HARD drive.
  This would also explain the mechanical noise when starting.

  PXE - E61: Media test failure appears as the laptop attempts to boot from LAN.
  Why? Because the disk HARD could not be found and the CD/DVD drive does not contain a startup disk.

  So the BIOS switched to LAN

  This is why replacement of HARD drive should help you with this problem.
  If the warranty is valid, get in touch with a local ASP in your country. Maybe you could get a HARD disk which could be replaced easily

  This is a database with all FSA worldwide:

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  I read your post about the operating system not found since the Win10 Upgrade failed and tried to help.
  
  One of the things that happened during the upgrade:

  (1) it mostly completed but failed in the writing of the new boot loader files

  (2) it failed early in the upgrade, screw up your PC as well

  Allows to process 1) first - by recreating the bootloader files.

  You need access to a PC for this phase of work in order to create the necessary support to fix your PC boot loader.
  
  Once you have that, please download and create the Win10 installation media from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10
  
  Note that when you download and build install media, the default tool corresponding to what is already installed on your PC (as in home for the House, and 64-bit to 64 - bit).  While you CAN change these settings, are NOT. If you do, the media that results will be different and will force you to enter a NEW product code.
  
  Boot from the media that you have created and follow the instructions in this link: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-advanced-startup-options-boot-windows-10-a.html
  
  You will need to go to the Advanced Options screen and click on startup repair.  You will probably need to run Startup Repair three times for him to fix all the boot loader.
  
  Once completed, your PC should start OK.

  If this does not work, then we are on option 2) - which is not good news.

  While Microsoft says there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always return to your BONES and the original installation program within 30 days, the ugly fact of the matter is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when she fails, she can let machines in a State corrupted - that does not always happen , but it happens often enough to be a problem and you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!
  
  If this is not enough, the Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt partition recovery stored by the OEM that built the original machine.  It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work.

  What will work restores your computer to its original factory state using HP recovery media.
  
  It is a set of DVD and a CD or a USB key, which will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP. In some cases, you will be able to order a USB instead of discs.  You must order at HP; they cannot be downloaded.
  
  You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers
  
  Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version.

  Hello... My laptop out there today and I'm trying to start it, it says "operating system not found '... I guess I reinstall windows Vista but I can't find any cd/dvd... I dontt think that I was given when I bought my laptop a few years ago... Do you think I can get another copy (free of charge)) L

  Hello

  If you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your laptop there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  Also some manufacturers have more available recovery Vista disc.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Windows Vista has crashed, "the operating system not found" error, can I load Windows XP on a partition?

  I have an Acer Aspire 5516, with pre-installed Windows Vista. I didn't know that it did not come with a recovery disk UNTIL my system crashed! During a routine virus scan, I got a blue screen saying a major problem has been found and the system has been shut down. I followed the instructions to gracefully shut down my laptop. When I turned this back on after the "Acer" logo he went to a black screen with info on my computer and the last line States "not found operating system". That's when I discovered there was no recovery disc & it is integrated into the system. To access this system you we F8 to enter safe mode, then Alt F10 to access 'erecovery management system. Neither one of these functions operate! Still getting the black screen with "operating system" not found I have a Windows XP my laptop previous. What I was wondering is if I can load on my Acer, possibly on a partition, in order to be able to get into my laptop and save all of my files? I'm terrified of losing everything I have! I have thousands of pictures that I can't replace. If anyone can help please do! I am on a very limited income & can not really afford professional help. Thank you very much in advance!

  Hello

  normally with an Acer you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the hidden recovery partition recovery, not F8, then this combo

  but you do not have an option to save your data, that

  in daily use acers normally have a system partition, a partition of data to save your data, etc. to and also this hidden partition recovery

  and read this on data recovery, too;

  Data recovery

  1. remove the hard drive and it slave in another computer

  2 buy or borrow a USB disk drive hard put in yout case then plug it into another computer and read the hard drive like this

  3. try Knoppix

  http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

  BUT this method 3 depends on your hardware in the computer that failed

  read this information about method 3:

  http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

  Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

  http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

  Download the Vista software from the link above.

  After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

  Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

  Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1 in the boot order.

  Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

  When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

  Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

  Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

  Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

• Error "operating system not found" Vista on HP Pavilion DV6700

  I get a recurring "Operating system not found" error on my HP laptop. To let you know - I have backed up all the files on the DVD machine.

  The problem started last week.  I tried to turn the machine on and got the error.  I did a scan of the hard disk BIOS and the hard drive passed all tests.  I then tried to insert the first of the 3 recovery DVD in the laptop, but they did not start.  Finally, I used the partion (by pressing F11 at startup) to access the system recovery program.  Then I did a system restore to roll back the last Windows Update.  Windows has started, but it took awhile.  I used the PC for a week or two (backup everything!) and of course, I got the error again.  I went through the same process above, but do not restore the last update of Windows, the system does not yet recognize operating system.  Use the system restore, then rolled back the most recent update window.  System startup, but it takes a long time to start.

  Any ideas on how to solve this problem?  Should I do a system restore and start from scratch?

  Hi Questionme,

  You're able to boot inSafe Mode?  If the system starts in Mode safe without delays, we can eliminate the default settings and drivers for devices such as the cause and you can use theclean boot in order to identify a driver or a possible confrontational program. In addition, runchkdsk /r from an elevated command prompt (also valid for Vista) to verify the integrity of your hard drive.

• 'Operating system not found', can't the recovery partition, do not have a recovery disk

  Original title: recovery Partition not here and not backed up copy of Win8

  I have an 18 month, Acer Aspire V5-571pg now out of warranty.  For the last 3 days, of what it has been in a loop bringing repair until this morning disc error messages, it just says "operating system not found '.  A call to Acer support and we have tried to activate the recovery Partition using Alt - F10 but it seems that the partition is not there either, and of course I did not create a recovery disk when I got the laptop.  I was not eager to send the Acer laptop for service after the warranty expires, I thought I should at least attempt of recovery or re - install.  Windows 8 is a preinstalled OEM version.  Where should I start?  Y at - he's going to be a download that I can use and what I need to know a product key to install?  Should I get Acer to send me a recovery disk?  Not super PC here but am knowledge letter wins all the time.  I hope someone understands my situation.  Thank you

  You can order the recovery media using your SNID, from the link below. I have an ACER desktop computer, and it cost me less than US$ 20.00, to order an additional series.

  I have a toshiba satellite u400 with is come with VISTA.

  Because I don't like VISTA, I then installed WINDOWS XP with a multi boot.

  Everything worked well. But one day I want to resize my partitions I used Paragon partition manager.
  This product is required to operate only to resize my xp partition, so he asks me a start.

  And then nothing works.

  I try to fix my problem with a fresh install, but it seems that the boot sector was not correct.
  Then I completely format my hard disk on another computer with a USB CABLE.

  When I try to install VISTA, XP or LINUX on a CD or DVD, I ask the multiboot with F12
  I chose to boot from the CD/DVD built-in, but I get only "OPERATING SYSTEM NOT FOUND',

  It's as if the BIOS test the HARD to FIND something specific, and it does not find.
  When my PC worked correctly I could boot from the drive to dvd without problem.

  I called the SUPPORT CENTER of about 10 days, but I have no answer.

  So if someone could help me.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  OPERATING SYSTEM NOT FOUND message appears generally if the laptop has attempted to boot from the HARD drive and didn t find the operating system.

  But I put t understand why you formatted the HARD drive using the USB cable?

  Please insert HARD drive in the Bay of laptops HARD drive and check if the HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS!
  If the HARD drive has been recognised so I recommend you to take a disk Win XP Home and at the start of this disc.

  As I m not wrong not you will need to first install the SATA drivers to recognize the HARD drive.
  The fact is that the laptop supports the SATA controller and SATA drivers are needed to get the HARD drive recognized by Win XP.

  Well, after you have booted from the Win XP disc you need to format the new HDD by using the NTFS file format and should then follow with the installation of the OS.

  I think you have a faulty hard drive.  If you have not done a backup of your personal data, it will be lost.  You can test the drive by running the SMART of the BIOS test.  If you do not have the recovery media, you will need to buy from HP if it is still available.

  Hello

  For me, it seems that the HARD drive is dead and the laptop can not find the installed operating system.
  In this case, he tried to boot from different sources and finally LAN.
