HP Pavilion g4, reinstall Win7 64bit fm a DVD disc, not work

I try to fix a problem for my friend's laptop. It is HP Pavilion G4
running Win 7 64bit OS. The laptop can not start up the windows. I
press ESC to pause the start up, and run system recovery, it shows BIOS
setup, system recovery and others, I then press Fn + 11 key to run
system recovery, but it never runs.
I then remove the HDD, and connect to my computer to run testing. It
seems it has something inside corrupted. It takes so long to recognize
all partitions. I decide to format all partitions and then resize
them. Afterwards, I run test and chkdsk. Everything is fine with the
HDD now. I put the HDD back to Laptop, and insert a DVD disc of Win
7, the laptop does not start from DVD. The screen shows as follows:
Hard Disk Error
Please run the Hard Disk Test in System Diagnostics.
Hard Disk 1 (3F1)
F2 System Diagnostics
I visit the above link, I could not find relevant materials.
If I press ESC to exit start up. I can hear the DVD ROM is running,
but still not work. The screen shows as follows:
Startup Menu
F1 System Information
F2 System Diagnostics
F9 Boot Device Options
F10 BIOS Setup
F11 System Recovery
Enter - Continue Start up
Only F1 would respond when I press. Other Fn does not respond at all.
Do you have clue and suggestion for me ?

You do not use Fn + the key indicated.For instance to enter BIOS you simply tap F10. Recovery would have been F11, not Fn + F11.

    Yes, if you repurchase it you may lose your progress. The exception would be a game that stored all your progress on a server under your ID
    If you want to retain your progress you have two choices:
    1. Don't apply the update.

  • Applicatio​n on Win7 64bit throws error -50103, but not on Win XP 32bit host

    LabVIEW application newly installed on Win7 64bit host throws error -50103.
    Same aplication deployed from same installation disk on Win XP 32bit host have been working for 2 years withourt problem.
    I did have a problem with importing the MAX configuration from the Win XP 32bit machine to the  Win 7 64bit machine.
    My solution was to install all the drivers from my most recent Devaloper Suite 2012 DVD.
    After that the executable did run fine, except when the variuos DAq tasks are executed for the second time in a loop it thows error -50103.
    If i click ok on the erro popup, everything else works fine until in the next pass of the loop I get the same error.
    Why would I get error on one host but not on the other one?
    How do I fix this?

  • I upgraded to version 18, and it no longer works. I uninstalled, ran CCleaner registry cleaner, reinstalled full version and it still does not work., Windows 7

    I have been running Firefox 17.x with no issues. Updated to Firefox 18 today, and it will not render a single web page. IE and Chrome work fine. Running on 64Bit Win7 Ultimate. 6 Core/16GB Ram. Latest updates for windows, as of this weeks release. I have done a complete uninstall, run both CCleaner and Norton 360 Registry cleaner to ensure previous traces removed. Reinstalled full version. Still cannot/will not render a web page. No noted activity within the browser window. No error codes to provide.

    Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Windows 7 64bit adobe reader xi printer not working

    I have a Win7 64bit and installed Reader XI from Adobe.
    The reader does work, BUT the Adobe Printer hangs and eventually causes browser (both IE11 and Firefox) to stop responding.
    Googled fixes but none worked.
    Is there a way to JUST reinstall the Adobe Printer?
    Any other fixes that worked for you may help, just remember this is Win7 with all its restrictions.

    What Adobe printer do you mean? Adobe Reader does not install a printer.

    How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Which Windows operating system am I running?
    Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?

  • Hp Pavilion Dv 9000 no audio, quick lunch soft touch not working and no light indicators

    Good Evening i have problems with my laptop since it was sent to me without a hard disk drive so i have to buy a new one to make it work, first here are some useful information regarding my laptop.
    Hp pavilion dv 9000
    OS: Windows Vista Home premium
    HDD1: 250Gb
    Ram: 1030mb
    so when i got the hard disk drive, i installed windows vista as its operating system and so far it worked well, and after that i downloaded drivers from HP's website, with correct laptop model and os, i searched for the most compatible drivers that will make my laptop function 100%
    i installed
    NVIDIA  Chipset driver
    Hp Quick lunch buttons
    Audio Driver
    so after the installation and reboot of my laptop, it seems that only NVIDIA chipset driver worked, the quick lunch buttons are still not working, and also i cannot hear anything comming out of my speaker when i try to play some music, but i hear some loud beeps so it means it is 100% functioning  and also i noticed the 3 indicators at the bottom lefot of my laptop for (Power,Charging,Reading) lights are not lighting up.
     i tried to uninstall it and install it again just like other blogs says but it doesnt work. . .
    i really want to make my laptop fully functional . . 
    can you help me please

    Hello @iamDestiny ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you've installed a new HDD in your notebook and are unable to use the keyboard shortcuts and have no sound from programs on the computer.
    It would help to know if you're using a 32 or 64 bit version of Vista. To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
    Keep in mind beeps typically come from the onboard BIOS speaker, not the actual speakers. Can you tell me what you do to hear the beeping so we can tell if this is a system beep or a Windows sound? Also, can you tell me if headphones work?
    Regarding drivers: I would suggest installing the HP Support Assistant (HPSA) to search for drivers for you. You can download this here: HP Support Assistant. You can see how to use it here: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 7, Windows Vista).
    When you installed Vista did you use the HP recovery CD's or your own copy of Windows? 
    Let me know the updated info or if the HPSA works.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-6b10tx two of the usb ports are not working

    I have recently bought a HP Pavilion dv6-6b10tx....and had it fixed by hp for a problem with the beeping noise.
    After sending my laptop for repairs( replacing the system board), I received my laptop but two of my usb ports are not functioning...
    I did a bios update and did the hp update to see if it actually fix anything but not luck.  So I went device manager and found a exclamation mark on the renesas electronics usb 3.0 host controller with a device status 'This device cannot start. (Code 10)'.  What do i do??

    The question is why is the port not working?  Is something in the port that you can see?  If not, then there isn't much you can do but take the computer in to the genius bar and have the techs see if it is a circuit problem that can be fixed.

  • DVD player not working in Pavilion DV6-6102sa

    The DVD player in my laptop won't play video DVDs.
    It works okay with data discs, but films etc cause a problem - the drive spins up, and it sounds as though it's trying to read the disc, but not succesfully.
    Depending on the player depends on what happens:
    Windows Media Player may begin showing a garbled and unwatchable version of the disc, whereas VLC won't play anything. After a delay of at least 15 minutes (highly variable), the disc begins playing normally in both.
    According to device manager, the drive is a HP DVDRAM GT31L. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I've tried many different DVDs, all with the same result, and I've tried both Windows Media Player and VLC with equally useless results.

    To repair permissions go to Applications -> Utilities -> Disk utility -> select the hard disk in Disk Utility, and click on repair permissions in the First Aid section.
    Did you mean to mark my thing as helpful, or solved? I see you marked it solved suggesting the problem has gone away.

  • 2011 MBP with Win7 on BC and numerous drivers not working

    I'm working on a tech project and have run into a problem that i can't fix. <grr> I followed the Apple directions for installing a second OS on Boot Camp and found some good tips from other online walk throughs, but am still having a problem with a number of the drivers.
    I have a 2011 MacBook Pro 13" with the most up to date version of Snow Leopard. I have installed Boot Camp and Windows 7 Pro on a 50 Gb partition. I have installed Windows 7 and activated it. Once Win7 was up and running I updated the Boot Camp drivers with 3.2.0, the latest version that I know about. Initially I had no recognition of either the wired or wireless controllers even after the Boot Camp 3.2. I was able to determine that I had a Broadcom wired ethernet card and found the driver and installed it via USB so that I could use Win7 to access the internet.
    The drivers that, as found from the Device Manager, are not working are as follows:
    Network Controller - Wireless
    PCI Simple Communication Controller
    SM Bus Controller
    High Definition Audio
    Apple Keyboard -> Bluetooth USB Host Controller (though the USB ports are active and operational)
    Facetime HD Camera (1 of 2 not working)
    I have been able to use the wired internet to download and install all of the available Win7 updates, but nothing can be found on the above drivers. I even manually installed the drivers for each of these components from the Snow Leopard disk for Boot Camp and they would not install.
    From all the information that I can find on the Win7 Boot Camp install, nothing more recent than early 2010, everyone seems to have everything just install and work. I have not seen anything from anyone about the wireless and wired network cards not working or any of the other issues that I'm having. The majority of the issues were with the optical audio LED staying on or some other more trivial issue.
    Anything you can suggest would be great so that I can use the internet in Win7. The rest of the drivers are second to getting on wireless.
    Thanks in advance for your help. If you have any more detailed questions please let me know and I'll get answers back.

    I have a 15" MacBook Pro, built July 2011. It came automatically with Lion. No OS X disc provided in box with Lion, due to it being a download only OS.
    I followed the boot camp process to partition the hard drive and format the appropriate partition, to then install Windows 7 Pro Upgrade (clean install - works fine). Just like the original post, the following drivers that will not install properly include:
    - trackpad
    - keyboard
    Even when trying to re-install the drivers again manually off the boot camp disc, a window pops up to stating that the drivers may not have installed properly and gives you the options to either re-install the drivers 'using the compatability settings', or 'no the drivers installed ok'.
    It's almost like it thinks Windows 7 is an old program....weird.
    The keyboard and trackpad is missing from the Boot Camp control panel, so I can't change the settings for the keyboard and trackpad, to get them functioning the way they're meant to - like it does in Mac OS X.
    I thought that this page would help: http://www.reviewmylife.co.uk/blog/2010/06/08/windows-7-on-macbook-pro/ but no it didn't. The boot camp control panel screen dumps shown in this link, looks nothing like mine, due to the fact that the drivers refuse to install properly.
    I have spent hours trawling many mac and windows forums with not luck.
    Anyone with a MBP running Lion OS and Windows 7 Pro have these issues?
    Does anyone have a solution?

  • Lap top pavilion dv 7 shutting down Error 908 cooling fan not working

    Since two days my HP pavilion dv 7 lap top has been heating up. I started getting warning notice error 908. One of the cooling fans apparnetly is not working properly and the system is shutting down.

    If the operation has slowed you might also want to check the hard drive. Go back into the BIOS and look for the hard drive diagnostic test and run it. If the laptop came with Windows 8 you can also go into the "enhanced" diagnostics which is easier to use, with mouse support and such. Tap F2 as you power up instead of F10. You can run a whole bunch of diagnostics in there like memory and hard drive and DVD drive.  Let us know the results.

    Hello
    Hey man what are you doing? It is logic that OS installation should not be interrupted and notebook must be connected to AC power supply.
    What you can do now?
    Only one way to install OS now is to use installation discs.
    Have you created these discs on your own?
    Try please to start installation using disc 1.
    Do you know how to do this?
