Error Code 0xe0ef000e - Please Help!

Sunday morning, my hard drive crashed and I tried to re-install the OS, trying both the recovery disks and loading it directly from the hard drive, only to have it "freeze" at the same point each time.
I ran a diagnostic on the hard drive and it told me I had to replace it.
After talking directly which HP regarding my make and model, they sent me a new drive. The tech said that the OS was already loaded on the new hard drive so I wouldn't need to use my recovery disks.
I received the new hard drive yesterday, put it in my laptop, but when I booted up my computer, I received the message "Boot manager missing". I ran the diagnostic on the hard drive and everything was okay with it.
The HP tech said it could be something with the connection between the hard drive and the motherboard, but I tried my old hard drive again and it was able to boot up (and begin installing the OS, only to freeze again).  
With the new HD installed, I tried loading the OS directly from my recovery disks instead, and this is where I got the error code: 0xe0ef000e. I was about 65% done with the installation when this message popped up.
If someone could please offer some advice on what to do next I would really appreciate it!

Hi,
I would definetely run the test Mumbodog suggested.  If your memory is ok, the process I mentioned will atleast mean you're starting the installation with a clean HDD.

  • Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?

    Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
    repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)

    That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).

  • Trying to download ios 3 getting error code 8288  please help

    Have a first generation ipod touch, trying to download ios 3 to computer getting error code 8288, please help.

    I finally solved this on my own. I installed iTunes 9.2 on my Mac. You can get it from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1056
    Then I went to the iOS 3 purchase page here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052
    and clicked the Purchasing link. It opens up iTunes. I connected my iPod touch G1 and did a check for system update. Miraculously, it found it this time and downloaded the update.
    No guarantee that this'll work for you, but I'm finally able to use my iPod touch again and put on some useful apps.

  • I am facing problem in starting ShellHWDetection service Error code 1075,please help

    I am facing problem in starting ShellHWDetection service Error code 1075,please help

    Shellhwdetection is a Windows service which stands for Shell Hardware Detection Service.
    It provides notifications for AutoPlay hardware events.
    System error code 1075 means "The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion."
    Please run services.msc, then find Shell Hardware Detection Service, view its dependencies
    Make sure the three services are set to running "automatic" in Services.
    If this doesn't help, then run sfc to check if there're some missing or corrupted files in system.

  • Blue screen error code. Please help.

    late 2008 version.
    Recently my school reinstalled windows 7 but after he did that, there was some blue screen error code which only appears while running on windows and everything is fine on the mac side.
    He reinstalled windows 7 again but the blue screen error code started again. He said that it could be that my apple disc is not original which caused the error code, however last year they were able to installed windows 7 without any issue. He also said that it could be the hard drive problem.
    Another problem I have is that while on windows the hard disk drives doesn't show the mac too.
    Please help! Much appreciated if any of you can help me out.

    Unless you run a VM such as Parallels, you're not going to be able to see your Mac disk using Boot Camp. If I were you, I'd see about getting Parallels Desktop and installing Windows 7 on it. You can then inter-operate with both systems.

  • CS4 InDesign Error Code 5 - PLEASE HELP (!)

    Hi, please please if any of you have suggestions to solve this problem or ANYTHING, please lend me a hand!
    I tried to contact suppose-to-be open 24/7 customer service but on the phone the automated female voice tells you it is actually Mon-Friday. LOL.
    OK, here is my problem.
    My computer had to be rebooted yesterday morning, nothing unusual as it often happens.
    Rebooted my Mac and tried uploading few InDesign files later on in the day.
    Other files that were on before rebooting restored themselves but then an Error message came up with one file,
    "Cannot open "file name.indd".
    The file "file name.indd" is damaged and cannot be recovered (Error code 5)"
    I am one of those Ctrl+S freaks so my work was saved before the reboot.
    If the problem is within the restoring file system then why are all the other files safe and sound?
    After intense googling on the matter, I suspect that it might be the size of the file.
    I read a few cases where cos the file was too big, they had the same Error code 5 and lost them.
    127.5MB is the size of the file but there have been no warnings previously nor was I informed that the size would cause a FATAL problem like this.
    Anyway I tried out about all of the potential solutions given on Google.
    -Quit and restarted InDesign.
    -Rebooted Mac.
    -Moved the file in to a portable hard drive and  tried opening from there.
    -Opened from other programs such as Photoshop etc.
    -Created a new computer account and re-installed InDesign.
    -Deleted and recreated InDesign Preference.
    -Tried it the next day.
    PLEASE help me...
    That file happened to be THE MOST IMPORTANT one out of them all.
    I spent few weeks working on that with hardly any rest or sleep.
    The deadline is too close for comforts....please help.

    Copy + Paste or Dragging them on to the page.
    Does this make the file size too big to handle cos of all the links?
    If so, why has it happened now?
    Why has it not happened instantly or gave me a warning about the file size?
    Thank you for the feedback, I really apprecaite it.
    Even though it may mean my file's lost forever at least I know better now. Thanks.
    There are no links when you copy/paste. When you say drag, do you mean from Bridge or Finder/Explorer, or from Photshop? Dragging from Photoshop is the same as copy/paste. All you get is low-res screen preview embedded in the document.
    I suspect this doc may be as large as it is because it hase a lot of useless change information in it. ID save all the change info each time you hit save. When the doc is closed, that information is still retained, but is no longer usable. To reduce file size you should do a "Save As."
    Have you tried deleting the recovery information and opeing the file from the menu? I don't think it will help, but it might.

  • Unable to Paste, also 'Error Code -4960' - please help

    As of today I am no longer able to 'paste' anything, however I can 'Copy'. I have also noticed than while using BBEdit (text editor), if I try to 'drag' text around, I get 'Error Code -4960'.
    Please can someone help me fix both issues, I'm not sure but suspect they may be related.
    Thank you.
