• Satellite Pro A210 HDD, Windows Vista & BIOS problem

  Hello

  We have an A210-1 b 3 - PSAFHE-01500PEN - running Vista which has had a hard drive failure.
  We have replaced the old drive SATA (250 GB) with a 500 GB SATA drive and used the recovery disc to install Vista and specific software from Toshiba. We intend to restore our backup data that a Vista is installed.

  That is the problem. We have installed the new hard drive, ran the recovery and after restarting, we got a Windows could not sating error set up the hardware and then restarts. I suspect that the new drive is not recognized by Vista. I looked around and it was suggested to the SATA Compatible parameter value in the BIOS. However, the BIOS (V1.5) has no options for this.

  So, can anyone suggest anything please? Any ideas where I can get the latest update of BIOS (pref one that allows me to create a boot disk and update BACK)? Any help appreciated because she has completely baffled me.

  Thank you in advance,

  Jamie

  Hello

  Seems that A210 BIOS does not support the SATA option, that would help you to switch the AHCI compatible mode. That is why the SATA drivers must be included in the configuration of OS install.

  But if you use the Toshiba drive recover then you n t need to install the SATA drivers from the Toshiba drive recover contains the image where the SATA drivers are already included.

  Now the question is why the Vista Setup program cannot complete.
  Have you used the good drive recovery for the right portable model.
  I read in a number of threads that people used bad disc

  Well, it would be interesting to know if you can install the Windows operating system using the disk from Microsoft. On the other hand, you can try to format the HARD drive before launching the recovery disk

• Pavillion 500 - a60: Windows 10 activation problem

  My hard drive failed completely and was unrecoverable. I replaced the HD and reinstalled Windows 8.1 and it activated successfully. Windows prompted me to upgrade to Windows 10 I tried and after it installed, he refused to activate saying that is not a valid digital license. It gives the 0x803F7001 error code. When I tried to activate by phone, he said that he has already been activated on another device. Then he me connected to a Microsoft agent and he said that the key to Windows OEM installed with the PC is not valid for activate Windows 10 and I had to contact HP for a KEY appropriate to enable activation.

  Since the PC is out of warranty there is practically no way of contacting technical support without pay which I think is wrong in this situation. It is the first time that I'm trying to upgrade to 10 Windows, and I have the product key of Windows 8 BIOS of the machine.

  I can't find any help on how to solve this problem.

  I managed to get in touch with someone at Microsoft, which has provided a new key and now I have the problem solved. It would have been nice if if HP provided a way to communicate with them on this particular type of problem.

  Since I have a free license for windows 7 Professional at home, I decided to install it on my new Pavilion dv6-6c45eg that came with Windows 7 Home Premium.

  The problem is that the installation process stops at the beginning and said something like: "A required CD/DVD drive driver is missing... ", then he gives me the choice to load a driver. I googled a lot since yesterday and there seems to be something related to the SATA driver, however even load the SATA driver installation is not moving forward, after loading the driver it say that no new units have been detected.

  What I tried:

  * Install Windows 7 x 32 and x 64
  * Install from a USB flash drive

  * Install Windows 8 (same problem in Windows 7)

  * Check the SATA in the BIOS (not possible to see or modify on the BIOS F.19)

  * Search for the shortcomings of HD (even changed the HD)

  I'm sure it's something related to a driver, because I also installed Linux (OpenSuse, Fedora and Ubuntu) operating systems and they work fine.
  So, I would appreciate help to solve this problem.
  Thank you very much.

• How to report the BIOS problem?

  Hello

  is it possible to report the BIOS problem so that a person of HP it will read and the problem will be solved if all goes well?

  To be concrete, there seems to be problem in BIOS F.02 installed on HP Mini 5103 causes of freeze if it has plugged the USB key with 'recursive partitioning' at startup. As a result, it is not possible to boot from live USB which was created from some ISO hybrids (e.g. direct ISOs of OpenSUSE recent). Since there are not many options to install the system on netbook, I think it is serious problem. My previous netbook Lenovo Ideapad S10 - 3 and also my work laptop and desktop have no problem to start with the USB stick containing "recursive partitioning", so it's certainly a problem (hopefully not feature) this concrete machine/BIOS.

  Thank you

  That's ok on the Bravo, I did nothing to help you again.  This link is for questions of security, but it is also for the firmware, so you can get away with sending them a note here:

• My Windows XP has problems with shlwapi.dll

  My Windows XP has problems with shlwapi.dll and there are plenty of sites to download, but they all want money, why don't misrosoft not has an answer for this problem. When I try to update to internet explorer 6 to explore 8 then the error always pops up saying: you have a problem with shlawpi.dll and he can not continue... Very very frustrating.

  In general, it is not a good idea to download dll files.   See, for example, http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findtheproblem/qt/dll-download.htm

  If you explain more in detail what your problem is, including providing the full text of the error without paraphrase, it is likely that someone in the appropriate Microsoft Answers forum will be able to help.

  Because it seems that your problem is related to Internet Explorer, you are more likely to receive help if you post in the forum Internet Explorer, where there are already many threads dealing with issues of shlwapi.dll on IE: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/Search/Search?SearchTerm=shlwapi&CurrentScope.ForumName=ie&CurrentScope.Filter=&askingquestion=false

  If you look through some of these threads, you can find the answer to your question without further delay.  If not (or if you just want to watch), do not forget to include not only the text of the error message, but also the version of Windows XP, you have (Home, Pro, Media Center) and its service pack (start > run > winver > OK).

  And, based on this thread - with what seems to be your exact problem - also include responses to the following questions (there no answer, certainly because the OP has NOT provided to the request for information):

  1. what application or anti-virus security suite is installed and is your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

  2. do you have a free trial Norton, or a test of free McAfee [a] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (No matter if you have never used or activated).
