Equium M70-173 - Fatal error - New HDD and Recovery.

Excuse my lack of knowledge.
I have been given a Equium M70-173.
upon turning on before loading it reads - Fatal Error; i should back up all of my data and replace the Hard Drive.
I am not sure if this is fixable and if it is what i should do. I also have been told that when replacing a HDD i would require a recovery disc.
I reside in Cyprus and so do not have easy access to large supermarket style PC shops.
I was wondering if i could use a generic HDD and if so is there a particular one i need to acquire?
Also
where would i go to retrieve a Recovery Disc?
I inherited the laptop as i cannot afford to purchase a new one at the moment and it is still in very good condition apart from the aforementioned issues!
I would love for any advice on what type of HDD i would need or is available - rough costs so i do not get ripped off and if changing the HDD is as easy as i have read. Also where i should go to receive a recovery disc and if this is all i require to fix the laptop.
Many thanks in advance for any help i can get.
Peter

fantastic i will take these details to my pc shop tomorrow.
i will also now check for my local toshiba dealer here in cyprus, if there are any easy ways to search for this it will be appreciated, otehrwise i am very very happy for your help.
i take i just replace the HDD and plonk in the recovery disc and let it work its magic.
very excited to get it working
thanks again

  • No Sound after New HDD and recovery on CQ61

    Hi All,
    I am at my wits end trying to repair my mother-in-laws Compaq Presario CQ61-401SA !! She had a major crash on her HDD which could not be recovered, so after buying a new one and the recovery disks from HP here is where I am.
    I have installed the new HDD. I have recovered the sytem software and Windows 7 64-bit. I installed all windows updates, and installed her own software, mail etc, and restored her files I had backed up. I then, quite pleased with myself took the Notebook back to her, but when we installed Skype, we discovered no sound ! I have tried upgrading the drivers and notebook bios, but still nothing. I have tried the WIndows Troubleshooter and the HP troubleshooting but there is still no sound !
    I have taken the machine back to factory state again, without any extra software or files, and still cannot get a sound from the machine ! If i power the machine and repeatedly press a key, the speaker beeps, so i know it is working ! HELP HELP HELP !
    Yours frustratingly Bobpg69 !

    You can try running the Apple Hardware Test from your installation disk. I also know that optical drives can cause this problem so it may be worth disconnecting the Superdrive and see what happens.

  • Recently bought a new HDD, and encrypted it, and it no longer works on any machine, help?

    Recently bought a new HDD, and encryped it and it no longer works...
    Does anyone have any idea how or why?
    I can't seem to press anything except repair and verify...

    I followed what it said on another one of these discussion forums, by going onto the disk and changing it to encrypted, created a password then pressed erase, and it no longer will open at all, even on normal windows

  • Fatal Error has occured and the application is being terminated

    It seems that Captivate is eating my projects.  I've started my second project (after completing my first without any errors) and I'm constintly getting corrupted files.  It set me back at least a few hours worth of work.  So I started creating backup files every 10mins, regardless of how much work i've done.  Everything was going fine, until I took an hour break and went to resume my work.
    When I try to open my file I get the following pop up message when trying to open my file: "Adobe Captivate - A fatal error has occured and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folder as .cpbackup files.  Please restart Adobe Captivate."
    I can click on the program workspace and not click ok on the error message to keep the file open.  I see my slides and objects, but all the text is missing.
    I'm using Captivate 5.5 and windows 7 64.  Within Captivate, I'm using standard objects with importing MP3 audio files and some Photoshop images.  I have a total of 4 slides with 1 being 3.5mins long and the rest are less than 1min.
    When I first started having this problem, I thought maybe the variable files were corrupte so I deleted the Users/name/appdata/local/adobe/Captivate5.5 directory to see if that was the issue.  That was before this last stint of errors.
    I tried opening a backup that was like 10 saves ago, but it displays the same message.
    I'm not sure what to do next.

    We have the exact same problem.Renaming the backup file per this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4055726 didn't work. I can open the file and see the text boxes even though they're now showing as empty. Is there any way to recover the file?
    Yes, we were using a network drive but now we've switched to locally stored content.

  • A fatal error has occurred and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folders as ".cpbackup" files.   Please restart Adobe Captivate.

    I was trying to capture a simulation when a pop-up window came with this error:
    "A fatal error has occurred and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folders as ".cpbackup" files.Please restart Adobe Captivate."
    I tried every possible solution but i am getting the same error. Even now, i am not able to open a blank project. I cleared Preferences and Cache, Restarted the system, uninstalled and re-installed captivate but the error occurs.
    Please help.

    Having admin rights is not the same as 'Run Captivate as administrator'. For the last, right-click on the start icon for Captivate and check 'Run as administrator'. Or click on Advanced, where you can check the option to always run as administrator.
    Another possibility could be a corrupt font somewhere. I forgot to ask which version you are using (exact number).

  • Problem with New HDD and installation of Qosmio Player

    Hi All,
    Hope someone can help, I have had my Qosmio for 2 1/2 years now and recently had a problem with the hard disk. I decided to replace the hard disk as this was the quickest solution. The problem I have now is that I cannot receive TV on media center. I was trying to install qosmio player on the HDD to see if it made any difference but when I run the recovery disk supplied the software tells me that there is not enough disk space!!. The laptop came with a 60G hard disk and the new HDD made by the same manufacturer is a 150GB, can anyone help me out with this one would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    ED.

    Qosimo F10.
    Sorry my previous entry was garbled. I upgraded the HDD to 120, could not get the Qosimo player to reload, same error, No space on HDD.
    I then upgraded to Vista and downloaded the new Vista Qosimo drivers, created the ISO image and booted from it. Still did not work.

  • From old website and iWeb to new HDD and iLife '08?

    I wasn't sure which category to post this in but this may seem more relevant to my issue.
    I put a new HDD in my mac some time ago and also upgraded to Leopard OS. I created a site using iWeb 6 which still have saved on my original HDD which i now have for external use. I just bought iLife '08 but yet to install it as I would like to update the website I was working on rather than start from scratch. The site mainly consists of photos and videos where I used iPhoto and Quicktime Pro a lot. I have also copied my iPhoto library onto my new HDD.
    What is the best way for me to copy and continue updating the site I was working whilst upgrading to iLife '08 so I can enjoy the benefits it has and use the features to help me progress with the site?
    Any help much appreciated

    Put the domain file in :
    ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
    Open iWeb 06.
    If you start using iWeb 08, it will find your domain file and updates it to iWeb 08.

  • How can I install a fresh OS on my 13" macbook. It has a New HDD and I have no install discs. It is a Mid 2010 Model

    Can anyone tell me How I can install a new operating system on a new HDD of my Macbook Mid 2010 model. I don't have another Mac to use, I only have a PC, I also don't have access to any discs or bootable USB's.

    Thanks for the quick response guys. The fulll story is, I bought the machine as not working from eBay with no HDD. It was listed as water damaged. Im competent at fixing water damage and got the machine up and running again in no time. I put a HDD in that I had lying around that was working last time I checked with hope of being able to format it using a recovery USB download from Apple and then going from there but I can't even get that far. Looking at the model release time it seems it would have been released with Snow Leopard so it makes sense that i'd need to get a disk. Unless you have any other suggestions?

  • Photosmart d110 - fatal error on install AND unable to uninstall?

    I purchased a d110 yesterday and receive a fatal error upon install (1935).  I looked up the problem on HP support and one of the steps is to uninstall the software (how is there software there anyway when I get an error message that says it can't be installed?).  I have tried EVERYTHING to do this - via the uninstaller in the Hp d110 folder, via the control panel, even a 3rd party cleanup tool.  It is still there.  I attempted the solution to the error 1935 code without bypassing that step and still get the fatal error.  This is the most frustrating thing!  Anyone been through this?  Thanks!

  • Fatal Errors with SOAP and BingAds PHP Library

    I am using the BingAds library for PHP.
    I often get long periods of time where the API eventually fails.

    The second series of warnings and fatal error comes after 6 or 7 successful API calls to retrieve AdGroup and Ad data for a series of AdGroups.  Eventually it fails.  
    Then it will work for several days, then have several days of getting errors again.
    Any ideas?

    Hi there,
    I hope your day is going well. From your description it looks like you are loading the WSDL for every call. This is what you say:
    "The second series of warnings and fatal error comes after 6 or 7 successful API calls to retrieve AdGroup and Ad data for a series of AdGroups.  Eventually it fails."  
    Best practice is to load your WSDL once cache it, and then use it for all calls. This is different from loading the WSDL for every call. Please try that and let me know if you have any issues.
    Thanks,
    Itai

  • Error runtime. rescue and recovery. wizrr.exe

    hi all hope you can help me. I'm trying to restore a system with Rescue and Recovery but to get 5% gives me an error "Runtime error c: \ Program Files (x86) \ Lenovo \ Rescue and Recovery \ wizrr.exe"
    Tell me know how to fix it. Thank you.

    To recap:
    (1) the machine seems to be fellow student on your team with a W520
    (2) said  machine will boot to windows OK (ie, the restore failure did not mess C drive up, it boots)
    (3) user add new printer /drivers to machine, which dont work and wants to go  back to earlier backup of system 
    (4) RNR version is 4.5.2 and backups are to USB
    ==
    Technical:
    RNR standalone does the restore. This software is found:
    A. windows RNR.  order the restore.  It will switch to standalone  RNR partition (on his W520). The order is placed on windows RNR, after selecting restore point.  <<< this will be automatic, after order placed.  It will reboot to the PDA, progress 5% screen.
    B. Fellow user booted to the standalone RNR at boot time (PF11, thinkvantage blue button) AND had to go thru panels to order up the restore.
    C. User had the USB plugged in.  The BIOS boot sequence has USB first,and it booted standalone  RNR software from the USB,then user had to go thru select panels.
    D.Standalone RNR CD boot.  This would require RNR, windows, create RESCUE media, and CD first in the boot sequence.
    ==
    Regardless of  a, b, c,d.  Have user use ? of standlaone program to see the verison of the standalone software. The standalone version will be slightly different then the windows platform version (like .0 vs .1 in version number).
    ==
    I suspect user booted from the USB which had an old standalone RNR version.   version mismatch.
    1) Remove USB in BIOS from the start up boot sequence
    2)Order restore via windows platform, it will switch to PDA on HDD -or- boot to pda(pf11) and order restore via panels.
    3)I also suspect when user upgraded to 4.5.2, the USB was NOT connected, thus the RNR standalone boot software on USB is older release.  BUT the backups are 4.5.2 This not a issue NOW.   Later....... Just RNR , create rescue media,point to the USB. Make sure the DO NOT DESTROY flag is set (default). This will upgrade the USB standlone RNR to 4.5. 2.

    Post back if this matches the scenario.

  • Satellite A205-replaced HDD and recovery CD not working; media test failure

    Please help,
    My wife's computer crashed, it all started with windows\system32\en file corrupt or missing. Took it in to the geek squad and diagnostics test said hard drive corrupt.
    (Trying to recover the data is another problem to solve later)
    To save money I ordered a new HDD (WD320GB) installed the new HDD, inserted the recovery disc and get the following message:
    Pre-boot execution Environment (PXE) v2.1
    PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
    PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM
    Operating System not found
    I can see the new HDD in the BIOS, I've changed the boot order to start with CD/DVD drive but still get the message above.
    What now?
    Thanks for any help that I can get.

    I want to say thanks to all who helped. The problem with recovery CD's not working was the DVD drive.
    I was able to get a used DVD drive really cheap and was able to reinstall to factory condition.
    Just for kicks once the install and all updates were completed I stuck the old DVD drive back in and still didn't work. So other than alot of time online and looking around for a DVD drive that would fit the laptop, I spent less than $10 for DVD drive and $65 for another hard drive which is good news, the bad news is my wife couldn't live anylonger without Facebook and bought another laptop, HP this time.
    Well my daughter will have a Tosh to do her school projects.
    Now to figure out what caused the crash, loss of data and DVD not to work in the first place.
    Thanks again for all your help.
    Happy New Year

  • Dv6000, installed new HDD, used recovery disk DVD, computer keeps restarting on it's own

    HP dv6402ca
    Installed new HDD - WD Scorpio Blue 500G
    I ordered the recovery disk DVD from Computer Surgeons.
    I installed the recovery in drive bay and restarted as per instructions. Everything went fine and when it started windows for the first time that went ok as well, it kept restarting like it said it would to install all software. Now, with everything installed it is still restarting on it's own. I let it go on overnight as I thought this might be normal, but when I got up 5 hours later it was still restarting.
    I don't what else to do, please help.
    Andrew

    Hi, Andrew:
    Sometimes it takes a while. You may want to abort the installation and try again.
    You may also want to use this workaround if you can't get the recovery disks to work.
    If you can read your 25 character MS product key, you can make your own Windows Vista installation disk. Just download the 3 files you need at the link below, and read all of the instructions to create a bootable DVD installation disk using imageburn.
    When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message that about a WIM file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.
    I selected No, make the ISO file.
    It was not that hard to do. I burned both the 64 bit disk and the 32 bit disk in case I ever need them.
    I tested both of them (just short of going ahead with the actual install) and they appeared to work perfectly.
    Apparently when you enter the product key, it knows what version of Vista you have.
    http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/softwa​re-os/w/microsoft_os/3317.2-3-microsoft-windows-vi​...
    After you successfully install vista, you can download the drivers you need from your PC's support and driver page.
