Hp pavillion dv6 not turning on or able to use system recovery

My computer was working normally last night but today will not turn on correctly. i have tried system recovery, system restore, last known good configuration, safe mode, hard reboot....nothing is working. The screen either stays black or a message saying
 !!0xc0000034 !! 183/102067 (_0000000000000000.cde-ms)
appears. I am unable to use my computer at all so downloading software to fix the problem is out of the question. Is there anything I'm missing??
Thanks so much!

Have you tested your hard drive? Enter BIOS setup by tapping/holding the F10 key immediately after powering on the laptop.Use Diagnostics to test your hdd.
If you don't have Diagnostics in BIOS-try tapping Esc key immediately after powering on. From the menu that appears (hopefully) tap  F2 System Diagnostics.
******Clicking the Thumbs-Up button is a way to say -Thanks!.******

  • MSDN Win7 upgrade + partitioning + able to use System Recovery. how?

    I have installed throught a clean install on my T400 (recently bought, no important files yet), and I have resized my C drive so I have a new D partition. But after partitioning the system recovery through blue button (ThinkVantage) will not work. I did not purchase a Windows 7 license off lenovo because my University gave us MSDN subscriptions for Win 7 Pro.
    So here I am asking: What is, if there is one, the perfect solution, to upgrade from Vista 32bit (Recovered from backup disks) to Windows 7 x64, and split C: into two partitions, while at the same time, allow F11 at start up to work and recovery C: drive without erasing my other partitions.
    Thank you, I know this is probably one of the most often answered questions on this forum... If there is already a solution to this, sorry about that because I couldn't find a post talking about this ^^;;;

    Hi:
    looks like you wan to run your PC on Windows 7, but also want to have that recovery feature in place.
    You can do one of two options:
    Option A:
    -Perform a clean install of Windows 7
    -Download System Update 4.0 from lenovo.com
    -Select ALL updates indicated from the scan.
    -after those are installed, run Windows Update, install all updates, then install ALL of your additional software.
    -once your PC is completely set up, Run Rescue and Recovery (in the thinkvantage folder); if it is not in your pc, you can download this from Lenovo.com.  Create a harddrive Backup of your PC.
    Youre Done.  You now have a new image installed in your PC that works using the "Blue button" (Rescue and recovery is the program that runs when you press this button).
    Option B:
    If you can get your hands on the New Recovery Discs for Windows 7, you can instal the entire Factory image of New Lenovo Notebooks built after 10/22.  Not only will you have the setup you want, the Enhanced Experience ("EE" rating) given to those new notebooks will apply to your PC as well.  Good Luck, They will be hard to find (unless you can find a person with the new laptop - they can burn the recovery disks for you right from their Notebook.

  • Hello.  My 1st Generation Apple TV with HDMI cable does not turn on.  Its a used model purchased on eBay.  I've checked and ensured that the electrical plug works.  Is there anyway to manually check to see if the unit turns on or do I have a defective uni

    Hope I'm using this forum right.  I purchased a 1st Generation Apple TV on eBay.  Unfortunately, I cannot get it to turn on.  I have another Apple TV (1st Generation) that works flawlessly on another TV.  So I tried to use the new unit on this TV with same electrical cord and HDMI cable.  No luck.  It would not turn on.  So I do not know if I have a defective unit or if there's another method of turning on the Apple TV.  Again:
    1.  I double checked and it was on the correct HDMI setting (the other Apple TV worked on it) and used the same cable
    2.  I double checked that the electrical was correct - again, the other Apple TV worked correct.
    Any suggestions on fixing this would be most appreciated. 
    Thank you

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    A good indication would be the status light to begin with, it should flash rapidly on start up and then settle down (assuming the status light is working-they have a habit of fading)
    The other thing you could try is cycling the resolutions in case the previous user has left it on a setting that your TV doesn't support.
    Press and hold both the 'menu' and '+' on the Apple Remote for about 6 seconds.
    Press '+'or '-' on the Apple Remote to cycle through the display resolutions.
    Pause a couple of seconds after each press for the Apple TV to accept your selection.
    When Apple TV reaches an acceptable display resolution and “If you can see the Apple logo, select OK” appears on your TV screen, press 'select' .
    If that doesn't help, I fear the Apple TV is defective.

  • What happened to my back button? Now when I'm browsing on facebook, or any other site, the back/forward buttons are not highlighted to be able to use them?

    When I am surfing the net, I have always been able to use my back/forward buttons. Now all of a sudden, they are not available to use, you can still see them, but they are grey, not black, like they once were so that I could click them to go back to a previous page, or forward once I've went back? I don't know what's the problem. I did the most recent firefox update that was sent to me recently. But just noticed this problem today. Thanks for your help.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Not being able to use my recovery disks...

    Hello!
    I need to format my laptop (HP G42). So I decided to use my Recovery DVD's for it (the ones that I generated the first time that I used it, right when I bought it). Before that I backed up all my working files in a disc (DVD disc). Everything was OK so far but my problem began when I started the process of using the recovery media; it went OK with the first disk but when it was turn of the second and error appeared (unfortunately I didn't wrote it down).
    I thought it was a problem with my DVD unit and I saved all the DVD Media in my external USB HDD. Tried to run the recovery manager from the external USB HDD but the recovery manager told me that "this media was not allowed"
    How can I get my HP G42 laptop to its original factory settings? Somebody out there that can give a hint.
    I will greatly appreciate any help given!
    Horacio S.G.

    Try booting with the Recovery Disks again, if you still get a fail write down the error message and post it.

  • My macbook will not turn on. Related to using wrong charger?

    I used my macbook charger to charge a mac book pro and now my macbook will not turn on. The green light shows on the charger but it will not turn on. I am not sure it is related but what should I do?

    Using one charger on another mac won't harm anything.

  • Cannot connect to AppStore or itunes or icloud. Keeps responding that AppStore can not connect.  Although able to use wifi all over the iphone 4s. Having problem only with AppStore n other Apple inbulit apps. Revert

    Appstore icloud itunes not connectiong

    I had this exact issue.  However, I was not even able to "see" the pending downloads when I tried fixing them using the solution above.
    In another thread, I saw that someone mentioned an issue with the use of the "&" (ampersand) symbol in your appleID information.  I had recently changed my name and it did include the & symbol in my name (not the appleID itself).  I replaced the ampersand with the word "and" and saved.  I then went to the iTunes store and logged into my account there and made the same change on my billing name.
    Voila!  I could now access the 7 pending downloads on my desktop Mac and download them, and all iPhone/iPad/Ipods were again able to download from the app store.
    incidentally, I had several support tickets open on this issue and never once did the Apple person even suggest that this might be the issue. 

  • My iphone 4 will not turn on-  have already tried using home/sleep button that has been suggested

    My Iphone 4 is fully charged- and then suddenly won't turn on at all- I have read previous messages that suggested holding the on/off/sleep button and home button at same time to do soft reset- this has not worked- i have held them for as much as a full minute
    Does anyone have any other suggestions

    Try connecting your charger to it to see if it powers up; might be worth plugging it in to your computer to see if iTunes sees it.
    If neither of those works, you need to bring the phone to an Apple store to be evaluated.

  • What do you do when your iPod touch 5th generation will not turn on, and it isn't in recovery mode?

    Today, my iPod touch 5th gen wasn't turning on, but during school earlier today it was working just fine. When I got on the bus, it wouldn't turn on? I got home and I plugged it into the charger and tried to see if it would turn on that way, nope. Also, there would be no way for it to be in recovery mode, because of the fact that the home button is pushed in and wont work. I've had my iPod for 2 years, is it just old and decided to give out?

    See this previous discussion

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk

    I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC    No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.
