Dv4-1275mx Replaced Hard Drive Windows Vista System Recovery Failure

I have a HP dv4 1275mx laptop and I just replaced the hard drive.  I got the Vista 64-bit hp system recovery discs from HP but the recovery has failed 4 times.  The hard drive is brand new and has more space than the old one.  It's a Western Digital 640 gb scorpio blue sata 5400 rpm.  Windows will not complete the download.
On the original hard drive, I upgraded to Windows 7.
Error message:

  • Pavilion g6-1096sa - Replacement Hard Drive - Windows 7 Fresh Install - Sata Issue

    A friend dropped her HP Pavilion g6-1096sa Notebook PC and the hard drive has failed (or at least I think it has).
    Of course, this was before burning the restore CD's.
    Before I get her to purchase a new hard drive, I wanted to install a vanilla copy of Windows 7 on a spare drive that I have (to prove 100% that the drive is faulty) but it's failing with :-
    " This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk, ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in computer's bios menu ".  The installer sees the drive, but won't install onto it.
    It's an old 80 GB SATA II drive that I had lying around at work, which should work fine.
    I've checked the bios and I can't see any options for the hard disk.  I'm guessing that the bios is pretty basic, and you can't just boot into the sata controller to enable AHCI support or similar.  I would have thought that AHCI support is already enabled or the original drive wouldn't have booted.
    Does this model need a specific sata driver.  I've checked through the driver downloads, and cannot find one for Windows 7 (found the XP version though).
    Do I need a driver, or do I need to do something in the BIOS?
    PS: If I put the original disk back in, I can start to load Windows 7 on it from a bootable download from Microsoft's website, but crashes at random intervals.  (I think the clicking noise is giving it away though).

    No one have any information on the BIOS or SATA for this model :-(

  • ENVY dv7t-7200 Replace hard drive and restore from recovery disk/flash drive

    I am replacing the HDD on my ENVY dv7t, running Windows 8. The existing drive is a 5400 rpm 1TB and I am replacing with a 750GB Seagate momentus XT.  Largely, the reason is performance and I don't need that large of a drive.  The plan is to remove the old drive and replace it with the 750GB mentioned above.  I have the Recovery image on a 32G thumb drive, so the plan is to restore the image on the new drive.
    Any issues that I should be aware of?  Will this work?

    Hi,
    The dv7t-2000 is a CTO machine therefore I can't see its specs, I belive it has room for another HDD/SSD and you can utilize/utilise it. There are few known firmware problem with the 750GB Seagate momentus XT. Please check the firmware first (must be SD28 or later). Other than that should be fine.
    Regards.

  • Dead Hard Drive / Windows 7 / No Recovery Disks for HP G61-632NR Notebook PC

    My harddrive is completely DEAD.  Is there a way to find out using my serial number if my laptop came with 32 bit or 64 bit?  There is NO information at all in the documents I kept with the box.  Only the receipt.  I see I can only order recovery disks for 64 bit online as 32 bit is not available.  I don't' want to pay for them if they won't work. I'm so frustrated this laptop is only a little over 2 years old.

    Thanks so much!

  • Hard Drive replacement does not let HP System Recovery execute.

    I have a HP Pavillion HP3 (H8-1114) and I want to replace the hard drive on the machine. However when I try to run a System Recovery from the HP Recovery Dvd's I created using the HP software that came with the PC, it tells me that the Hard drive size does not match, and the recovery process fails. As much as I hate to say that I don't want to live off a bare Windows 7 Image, and drivers.
    What I Am trying to do is: downgrade from the 1TB hard drive to a 250gb hard drive due to the fact that after using the computer for 2 years the Operating System has failed me more than 5 times, and rather than wiping the entire 1TB hard drive, I just wipe off the 250GB hard drive, reinstall from recovery discs, and when I have Windows up and running, then let apps know where everything is. (Example, I have Steam, and when ever I used to do restores on my old PC I just tell steam that certain games are located on another hard drive, Windows Libraries, {Music, Videos, Photos} etc. etc. etc.)
    is this possible or AM I going to have to back files up and restore them everytime I have to do a system restore? What if the stock hard drive really fails and I can't install the operating system I bought with my HP computer into the new hard drive because it just won't do it? And is it possible to tell the recovery software to just use a partition in the hard drive instead of having to wipe the entire drive and continue the recovery process?

    Since the HP Recovery discs will not install on a hard drive that is smaller then a predetermined size, I would consider recovering the HP OS (using the HP Recovery Discs) to a 1TB. After the OS is on the 1TB, it can be shrunk and "cloned" to your 250 GB hard drive. Once this is done and all the drivers are update and all the software is installed, you can create a "system image" that can be restored to the hard drive at a later date.
    This way you don't have recover the OS, update the drivers, and install all your software everytime the system craps out on you.
    If you need more assistance or direction, please post back.

  • How do I transfer all my Firefox saved passwords to my new hard drive and operating system? Going from xp to windows 7.

    How do I transfer all my Firefox saved passwords to my new hard drive and operating system? Going from xp to windows 7. I have the old hard drive hooked up as drive f. Can I copy and paste from old drive directory to new drive directory?

    You need to copy 2 files, key3.db and signons.sqlite, from the old [[profiles|profile folder]] to the profile folder on the new computer.

    Yes the original Install Discs can be replaced for a nominal fee. Call AppleCare, you will need a credit card and the serial number of the machine. You can use the AppleCare Contact Info for the phone number on your part of the planet.

  • Error code 0xe0ef000e after replacing hard drive HP G72-227WM Notebook PC

    the hard drive evidently crashed in my notebook (it would not boot, recovery disks would not work) replaced the hard drive tonight ran the recovery disks (The ones I created when we bought the notebook) The process went smoothly until it was ready to reboot at the end of disk 3. I did not go back into the settings and changed the boot drive back to the hard drive so when notebook came back on it said there was not a boot disk in the cd rom. I started over went to settings and changed this and began recovery process again. First error 0xe0f00013  during disk 2 searched forums and couldnt find anything. Started over again this time the error was 0xe0ef000e during disk 2. What should I do now?
    Thanks 

    Hi
    There are few important things that you need to check please find the steps given below.
    1) Please go to Bios page and run the Hard drive & Memory test and check if both the test passes. Incase any test fails then you need to replace the part.
    2) Please contact HP Technical support and order the recovery disc or click on the weblink given below to order the disc online.
    Order Recovery Discs for Windows 7, Vista, or XP
    Let us know how it goes!

  • Replaced hard drive- will not reboot

    Replaced hard drive on hp compaq mini cq10- 120ca because it quit working and the diagnostics said the hard drive was no good. Had a back up flash drive, but when I tried to reboot it says the bootmgr is missing. The mini did not come with any back up cd. What can I do to remedy this, and how can I verify the flash drive  is bootable. When I connect the flash drive to another computer it looks like all of the backup files are there. It had windows xp home on it.  Thank you.

    Hi Tomilly,
    The easiest way is to get a recovery image from HP, please call HP call center and request a recovery image either via USB drive or CD type depends on your configuration.
    If your original HDD is still workable, please re-install this HDD back.  Boot up the system and locate the HP recovery manager, there shall be an option to create recovery media which can store all your image including the OS to the media.

  • IPod 4th Gen Click Wheel replaced hard drive; problems

    Ok, So I replaced the 20gb hard drive with a new EXACT replacement hard drive, no other problems with iPod. But iTunes will not recognize it because the hard drive is not formatted. I tried formating it with Disk Utility but keep getting error messages. Im not sure what format to use. When the 4th gen came out Intel processors werent here so Im sure I need to simply format as Mac OS Extended. There is no HFS= format in Disk Utility. Im lost as to what to do. Please help??!

    hmm - curiouser and curiouser
    I've now managed to get it to manually update (after iTunes took 100% of system resources and I had to force quit it...) but that still doesn't really help me with the auto-sync feature which still won't work

    Here are answers to your question.
    1) You can upgrade to 500GB and its possbile without any problems
    2) No constraints on size or make. You can use any brand or manufacturer of your own choice
    3) You need to install your OS using recovery disks. There is a guide available over here
    4) There will not be any problems if you using recovery disks on new HDD
    5) There wont be any conflict. If you do face any issues, you can always post your query on the forums.
    6) Unfortunately there is no other way. If the HDD test fails, it means its gone. Only option is to replace HDD.

  • Suggestions on replacement hard drive

    I'm needing a replacement hard drive for a 733MHz 128MB 40G Quicksilver. Anyone with experience on certain brands?
    Thanks,
    Jason

    Jason:
    A 120GB (ATA-100 or ATA-133) drive is perhaps the optimum size... You've confirmed that Mac won't see more than the first 128GB of any drive connected to the native drive bus on the logic board. You may add a drive larger than 120GB to this bus (in case you find a larger drive for less money than a 120GB one), but only the first 128GB will be recognized after formatting. For larger drive internal use at full capacity, you'd need to add a PCI controller card to hook the drive to.
    To physically install the drive, you need to correctly set the jumper pins on the drive and then connect it to the proper connector on the ribbon cable. (I assume that the current drive is working and you'll be duplicating the data on it to the new drive. If I'm wrong, please let me know.) One of the drives will be pinned as master (single master/single drive) and connected to the end of the ribbon cable; the other pinned as slave and connected to the inline connector. They get mounted one above the other in the drive stacking tray that's in the Mac. The new drive will come with the jumpers, mounting screws and a spare ribbon cable, so you'll have all that you need).
    If you need help with this, let us know after you've purchased the drive (pin setting positions vary on different brands). Don't drive yourself crazy with the installation manual that comes with the drive, which is confusing and Windows-oriented. Also note that the accompanying software CD is useless for Macs. You'll instead simply use Disk Utility to initially format (initialize) the drive.
    As for cloning, I think that the most user-friendly software is SuperDuper, which I'm pretty sure you'll find to be a snap to use. (I'm a long time fan of CarbonCopyCloner, but recently tried SuperDuper to familiarize myself with it and was very impressed by how friendly it is.) It walks you through the volume duplication process in a few easy steps.

  • I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor.Can we re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive for a old macbook?Just one example.

    I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor who we get to buy all our Apple products from.Can we (university) re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive once the hard drive gets replaced? How can we as the university IT department legally re-install macosx on a imac,macbook, macbookair etc. We would like to load customized macosx imaging software onto the mac machines(imac, macbook, etc ). The university has its own IT workshop and we would like our users to get their laptops back in the shortest turnaround time.

    We're not "Apple Inc." here, just users like you.
    So whatever we say is not an official statement, nor does it in any way, shape, or form represent the official or unofficial policies or opinions of Apple, Inc.
    But I'll offer my quick opinion, having worked in information-systems and technology support in a wide variety of environments over many years.
    Question #1. "NO!"
    No tech support nor repair facility, even if "Apple-authorized", is automatically empowered to install or upgrade OS X on a replacement hard drive just because it is more convenient or time-efficient. When the repair is complete, the student should be expected to (re)install the operating system themself*!
    Nurturing students (and occasionally dragging them, screaming and kicking!) as budding computer-, tablet-, smartphone-users to become digitally self-sufficient is a worthy goal that any institution of higher education must pursue.
    Making students totally dependent upon "Mother Support" for every little thing about their personal digital devices is a grave disservice to both the students and the people who provide the support. Support-mothered students do become life-long digital dependents, instead of taking the required time to learn enough about the care and feeding of their digital "pets" to sustain them. Entreprenurial students may choose to become 'experts' and actually help each other with their devices, and even make money doing it. Some students may even be inspired/coerced to pursue a career in tech support!!!
    *By all means, if the student requests additional help (re-installing the OS), then the University should charge the student a fair price for the service, provided that the user provides the OS on original or upgrade media, or in the case of the 'digital download' upgrades (for OS X 10.7 and 10.8) provides proof of purchase for the OS upgrade, or the original purchase receipt or other recognized documentation for the purchase of the computer showing the version of OS installed when purchased. Students need to learn about personal responsibility, economics ("What is MY time really worth"?), and proper record-keeping too!
    Question #2. Regarding the customized imaging software, provide it on media or a link for students to download and install it. Make it their responsibility!

  • How to replace hard drive in mini 110-3131dx

     Trying to replace hard drive in the mini 110-3131DX.....  I have a replacement ... How do I open the case.  I see a orange slider bar  in battery compartment,   but no screws to take out or covers to remove.  It has a solid no opening base except where the battery is removed.

    You're welcome, Tim.
    What operating system are you installing on the machine?
    The specs state it shipped with W7 Basic.  That OS should load without issues.
    If you are trying to install XP, it will not install unless you load the SATA ACHI drivers either at the F6 prompt or you need to slipstream them into a copy of your XP installation.
    If you are attempting to install XP, please read this link below and that should solve that issue.
    Your notebook has the Intel NM10 Express Chipset.
