• Computer HP laptop-15-r101na: disk hard Imminent failure

  I've had this laptop for a month and after about 2 weeks, I received a message at startup telling hard imminent failure. I backed up all my data and run the hard drive tests.
  Hard drive tests immediately to find a failure and gave me a failure ID but no resolution.
  
  I am currently using the laptop as usual, but with an external hard drive connected to the caution. The hard drive has not yet failed, but the message remains displayed.
  
  I'm a bit confused what is wrong and why it seems to not resolved itself?
  Any help would be appreciated?

  Hey Jake,

  You are probably still in warranty.  Make sure you have backed up your files externally and contact hp support.  You will need a replacement of the hard disk.  Sorry to hear that you have problems, happy, that they performed while you are covered.

• Black screen when I turn on the computer, press F1 and error message: disk hard imminent failure

  Original title: crash is immediate please help

  When I turn on my computer laptop black screen saying I have to press F1 to continue, it says after that... disk failure hard immenent what can I do besides spend more than 200. OO, I don't?

  Hello

  Chances are the hard drive failed, but it could be wiring or other materials.

  Check with the system manufacturer's support, their documentation online and ask in their forums
  (if any). Most have instructions to replace the hard drive.

  You can usually buy a hard drive for alternatives for less than $100,00 and maybe much less. Or the other
  get the same one or the same size.  System manufacturers usually several models if you
  the same can buy cheaper. And there will be others who are of the same size and type which
  can be used. Your local computer store can help select an appropriate player.

  Here is an example of how to replace the hard drive on some HP computers for example. Most
  other manufacturers are similar, and there are many generic examples on the internet.

• Smart disk hard imminent failure

  My laptop (hp G6 - A6 amd vision - quad core with windows 7 Home premium) was running very slow and hanging very often, I did a scan for a virus and, apparently, there was not. I did a restore to factory with hp Recovery Manager and now I get a message my hard drive is due to an imminent failure. The message is very annoying and scary because he asked me to back up my files or I won't lose them. Any idea what should I do then?

  Hello

  Looks like you should consider replacing the hard drive so definitely make a backup of all your personal files etc. asap - is your laptop still under warranty?

  If this is the case, contact HP on the link below and make arrangements for the disk needs to be replaced.

  If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

• Drive hard imminent failure.

  I was using a HP Pavilion dv7 (#XZ292UA #ABC product) for writing and looking for a little more than a year and did not have signs of hard drive problems - until yesterday. Curiously the hard drive on my old HP Pavilion dv5500 still works fine (7 + years later). Anyway, I followed the instructions for "disk hard imminent failure" and made the backup of data and backed up my important documents and manuscripts to the older computer and two readers (just to be on the safe side) Flash.

  I printed the "Instructions for fixing disk hard errors. Note the information provided includes the name of the disk: Toshiba MK7559GSXP ATA Device. I also checked to determine if there was any sign of trouble with the computer and the vacuum came.

  I believe that the only way to 'Fix' the problem is to install a new hard drive (HD), but am open to suggestions. If the answer is to replace the HD, I would appreciate your recommendation for a more reliable alternative to existing material.

  Thank you for your help.

  Thanks for your help. I did the back-ups, but could not get the laptop to repair the problem of the HD and will seek a replacement.

  Have a great weekend.

• Pavilion 6610f desktop: HP Envy &amp; WARNING: drive hard Imminent failure (please backup and replace immediately!)

  Recently, I had 2 different cats with HP Tech Reps in which they used their remote control programs to check on the problems that I had with my new HP Envy 5560 all-in-one.  The next day, at the start of my desktop PC, I got the warning message: "" imminent hard drive failure: if it please take a full backup and replace immediately. "" I did a scan from HP and it showed nothing wrong. There are no pop icons - up or whatever it is on my desktop screen to indicate a problem.  The hard Seagate I have is only 1 years and 89% free space left on it and there is no problem, other than being slow sometimes, before the cats remote and the PC warning.  I came to the forum looking for answers, and the first thing I noticed was a post to say today 09/04/2015 Bent Canuck: "HP Envy Hard Drive Failure" at 06:22. What a coincidence. Think are?  Only some 20 hours from the time I myself first 'hard drive Imminent failure warning' and only about 40 hours after the remote programs have been downloaded (twice) and the rep tech, taking control of my computer (twice).

  I ran all the diagnostics that my intermediate PC experience tells me to do.  I checked in the BIOS and I checked all the HP, troubleshooting, etc. on the Assistant HP program performance. I can find no reason for the hard drive to be failing.  I didn't notice it do anything else to be a little slow to start sometimes and slow to load stuff onto the internet, I have assumed it was probably malware and spyware that I must find a way to remove at one point, but I have received no warning about things either.  I get the same caveat and I did a full back, but...

  Can someone tell me what to do or how to check and see what the problem is until I have to just chuck the drive because of this warning?

  Thank you for the additional information.

  Did you run the BIOS CHIP to test your hard drive?  Also, I don't think that the added hard disk HP software had nothing to do with the message you receive.

• Pravilion dv7 series replaced after the recovery disk hard drive failure

  I tried to use the portion of my drive recovery hard when my laptop Pavilion dv7-4173 US could not operate.  After trying the hard drive recovery part several times I got an error message saying that the bootmgr is missing. I tried using the recovery discs I got to the store, I bought the computer before taking it home, and they failed. They worked up to 32% and then stopped.  I took the laptop and recovery (6 discs) disks to the tech Department of another retail store. After several days, I learned the recovery disc where no good/damaged. When I contacted the store bought told me that I had to bring in the laptop and recovery disks. They replaced the hard drive, saying: that was the problem, but do not partition. They decided to classified until the system OS of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit., but did not try the recovery disks. Can I use the recovery disk, they made me, if are good restore the laptop back to factory new?  I know he will place the operating system Windows 7 Home back on the computer, but I want that all return provided with computer programs. I'll be able to upgrade the Professional operating system? I have the disc of Windows 7 Professional.  If my restore disk will not work, can I use the recovery disc, only 2 discs instead of 6, I can buy from HP and then move on to professional?

  Thank you.  Computer to factory fresh.  Just update software and then go to Windows 7 Professional

• Move a Windows XP disk hard Moldavian dead a computer to another computer.

  How to initialize a Windows XP disk in another computer with a different arrangement of the components. This is a full version of XP not OEM. It should work with different hardware. But how to start and configure?

  Hello

  Because of the different drivers for motherboards different, when you move a hard drive from one computer to another with the operating system already put to the top/installed on it, it normally takes a clean installation of the operating system.

• my USB won't open it says "you must format the disk hard until you can use it"

  Hello
  I have my brand DANE ELEC 16 GB USB key was the work properly. I took it off wile, he played the song, and since then, I have try to open a dialog box open and said you need to format the hard disk: X before you can use I can't format it because I'll lose my data fields, important documents of songs picters.
  If anyone can help me with it please
  Thank you in advance.

  Because you don't properly stop the disc before removing it, you burned her FAT (File Allocation Table that each player has). Your files are still there, but they can only be read by the 'normal' software... think of a hard drive as a subdivision... formatting a disk (any drive) is like the ranking of all sectors which will be the roads and determine where the accommodation structures (folders) can be placed. When a fat gets grilled, all the rankings and roads disappeared suddenly... but the housing is still there. Recovery software puts the ranking and roads back.

  Is there a software that I used to be called "Rescue" that worked fine on the old disk to FAT32. Costs $60 but it was cheaper than $1000 than for a customer who had sprayed a server hard drive (and replaced their backup before calling me, long story, lesson learned client and I learned the value of disaster planning... but I digress), I was at another time.

  Good luck!! Let us know what you find / use / work... so that you can save we / you... because it will never happen.
