Getting start up failed "hard disk 1 quick" (303) and a hard disk 1 fault.. windows 7 won't start.

Hi,
Recovery disc are not shipped with the notebook, but however HP provides an option to create a recovery disc when the sytsem is working fine.
Now that the HDD has failed you will have to purchase a set of recovery disc from HP assuming that the system is out of warranty. The below link has info to order the RCD.

Hi, Yes, the HDD has gone bad and you will have to replace the HDD.I would also suggest you to run the startup test by tapping F2 as soon as you power on the system.More details about the test http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01443317&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN Details on Troubleshooting http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01443371&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN You can buy one from a local store or also from  http://partsurfer.hp.com (by using the product # of your notebook)

  • Bought books and cannot download get message:  import failed (E_ADEPT_NO_TOKEN)  What does that mean and what can I do to get my books?

    Bought books and cannot download in my tablet. Got message:  import failed (E_ADEPT_NO_TAKEN)  What does that mean and what xan I do to get my books?  I DID DOWNLOAD ADOBE DIGITAL EDITIONS.

    Update - this appears to be some kind of error with Google Chrome browser on Android.  A work-round that worked for me was to download Firefox, uninstall Aldiko then reinstall it via Firefox and Google play (accessed via Firefox not through the app) then re-authorise my device.  When I logged onto the library ebook service, via Firefox, I was able to download books fine.  Thought this might help anybody else getting the same error message.

  • Keep getting "software update failed" i've tried reinstalling firefox and serching for answers on google..i'm scared i'm not getting my security updates..i'd hate to change browsers cause i love firefox.. any suggestions?

    i keep getting " software update failed" i need to close any other firefox running (no others are running)

    What error code does it give?
    The quickest fix is to download the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and see if the next update works through automatic updates

  • I get a "verification failed" eror message after downloading Firefox and I can't install it -- I'm on a G4 iBook using OS 10.3.9 -- dowloading with Safari 1.3(v312). What can I do?

    I am using wireless

    The last version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.3.9 is Firefox 2.0.0.20 available from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/
    Firefox 3.* versions require at least OS X 10.4

  • Cq57 error msg hard disk 1 quick 303

    My start up memory test passes yet i get error msgs "hard disk 1 quick 303" and "hard disk 1 smart 301" . I ordered recovery disk since mine did not work yet they also do not work. The new installation stops at 23% and I get a pop up that states " Reducer copy file fails from D:\PRELOAD\Base.swm to: C:\RM\Image\Base.swm.  Can any one help me or know if I must have a new hard drive?

    Hi,
    The 301 and 303 error codes would indicate that the Hard Drive is failing and needs to be replaced.  This is also consistent with the recovery issue.
    If your notebook is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange to have the drive replaced - you can check your warranty status Here.
     If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
    If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
    If you are out of warranty and would like a guide on replacing the Hard Drive yourself, please let me know - include the full Model No. and Product No. of your cq57 series notebook - see Here for a further explanation.

  • How Can I Get the Amount of Free Disk Space Using space using windows 7 please share example using GetDiskSpace

    How Can I Get the Amount of Free Disk Space  using windows 7 please share example using GetDiskSpace i have already studied http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9958B8E473C4EF1786256BBC0053B64F

    Reading your question a bit more in detail, I doubt whether you are using Win32 API GetDiskFreeSpace function (for which my previous post is the solution) of Programmer's Toolbox GetDiskSpace function.
    With reference to the second one, it works even with disks larger than 2GB but you need to use the proper formatting code to display the returned value. I updated my example to show total free space in the debug output window and added a comparison with 3GB value using UInt64TypeCompareUInt from the Programmer's Toolbox.

  • My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps?

    My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps? I'm worried that I won't have any ability to access my apps and music. We have our itunes separated on different computers, so I have all of my stuff separated from his, but I don't know how to put them in my new account.

    Well... there really isn't any fully legal way to do this.
    The simplest solution is to continue sharing the same iTunes purchasing acct, but create different ones for iCloud (assuming that's why you needed to do the split).
    Slightly less kosher: Burn AUDIO CD's, of the music then copy them back to your new account.
    BE sure to do this from original acount, To keep the music info, you'll  copy over the CDDB file (in prefs somewhere) - since this maintains the data of CDs that you've had in library.... (it isn't carried over onto a user created CD.)

  • Hard disk test failed-Hard disk 1 quick (303) for my HP mini 110-3700ca PC.

    Operation system Windows 7 32-bit.
    After a tragic accidental "bump" on the table (I didn't even think it's that serious..), the computer start to slow down significantly, and when I tried to restart it, it shows:
    Windows Error Recovery
    Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
    It recommend me to Launch Startup Repair, but since HP mini doesn't have a CD-Rom... It shows error status: 0xc0000225.
    It's kind of obvious that the bumping might damaged the hard disk, so I tried to run hard disk check, and "hard disk 1 quick (303)" was all I got.
    I've put a lot of files on my netbook, and I'm quite desperate to see it working again. Please help!!
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Well, that's very sad, could be due to physical damage too. Anyway, please do a HDD self test:
    1. Restart the computer.
    2. Keep tapping the F10 key when the HP logo appears. This will take you to Bios Setup Utility.
    3. Select the Diagnostic tab.
    4. Select the "hard drive self test" option and press enter to perform the test.
    Note: This test takes at least 40 minutes (with luck)
    Pass - The hard drive is not damaged, you can recover data.
    Fail - the hard drive is damaged and may need to be replaced, no choice.
    Regards.

  • Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup.  However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails.  And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external.  Sort of a catch 22.  Any ideas?

    Is it a USB hard drive?  USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice.  Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem.  If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time.  I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

  • HT1436 I have two hard drives on my G5(2004). How do I get to choose which hard drive is the start up disk when I turn on the computer? Is it the shift key I hold down?

    I have two hard drives on my G5(2004). How do I get to choose which hard drive is the start up disk when I turn on the computer? Is it the shift key I hold down?

    depending on which model of G5 and  OS installed will depend on whether a key command will work
    alt   at start up may  work, if it does not, use the start up disc setting in;  
    apple menu > system preferences > system  > start up disc
    of course, the second drive must have a compatible OS installed for it to be able to boot.

  • My Time Capsule hard drive shows up in Finder, but I can't access the disk.  I get a connection failed message.

  • Hard Disk 1 Quick (303)

    There are many cases of this HDD failure, but mine a little different and I can't find any information on it.
    The computer was working fine and I wanted to reformat. (I reformat with USB not DVD) Upon booting from USB, it started and I chose language and hit install now. If you are familiar with Win7 Installation, you'll know that after hitting Install now it goes to screen that allows you to choose which partition to install on. But it never got to that screen. After click Install now it stayed on a screen that said "Setting up windows" and sat there for like 30 minutes so I decided to restart it.
    Now on restart it wont even recognize the HDD or something. On a hard-drive test (F4 after hitting ESC) it keeps giving me:
    Hard Disk 1 Quick (303)
    Hard Disk 1 Full (303)
    Hard Disk SMART Passed
    I just did the etst again and now it says:
    Hard Disk 1 Fault
    Hard Disk 1 Fault
    Hard Disk SMART Passed

    Well, I'm sorry that you feel that way but failing hard drives do not get better.  If it's less than a year old, you might check to see if you're still under warranty so that HP replaces the drive under yoru warranty terms.
