HP Pavilion dv6500 Entertainment Notebook PC series Operating system not found

Hello to all how are you doing guys doing today I'm having a problem and need the help from the tech world. So i have a Hp Pavilion dv6500 cto notebook. I started it up and got a black screen stating "Operating System Not Found". I couldnt get into safe mode to recover back to a safe point, i was able to get into the bios system to do a memory and Hard drive test, my memory test came back as a Pass but my Hard drive came back as a fail and stated "Replace Hard Drive".
Now i went out bought a new WD 500GB 5400rpm hard drive for the laptop, i installed it and did a Hard Drive test to make sure it was good and the test came back as a Pass. Now i had this laptop for years since 2007 and it broke just a few months ago, i just got the new hard drive yestarday and was playing doctor last night. When i got the laptop as a gift i was only given a recovery disk which did boot up and gave me the install now option and repair computer option. I chose the install now option and it was starting to install but then got this error message "Windows cannot open the required file D:\Sources\Install.wim. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070002." I read that you cant install windows from a recovery disk so now im back to square one.
So current status is I got a new hard drive that pass the bios test, memory test was a pass. I have no windows disk other then the windows vista recovery disk i tried but failed to install windows. I also tried a windows 7 disk from work but the disk wouldnt boot up came back with a message stating that disk couldnt be read there may be problem with the cd dvd drive or hard drive, but when i put in the windows vista recovery disk that boot up no problem. i just cant install window with it. So Im stuck with a black screen stating no operating system is not found. Note that i havent change the boot up line up back to hard drive to see if it would boot up the new hard drive but i dought it would change anything since its a brand new hard drive with nothing on it.
If someone could help me with step by step like how to get an operating system on my new hard drive. My wife has a laptop but with no cd drive so i would need instruction to boot get it on the usb. Hope i was helpful with my problem.

You have only tried questionable disks. You could order a recovery disk from HP but I am not even sure they still have Vista recovery disks. You could also buy a Windows 7 OEM disk and try that. it will cost you a bit but will be legal. What version of Vista is it? You can also try to find a Vista install disk and use the Key Code on the bottom of the laptop if it is still legible. Here is a link to downloadable .iso files you can use to make a Vista install disk that will activate with your Key Code:

CD/DVD drive not recognized in hp pavilion dv6500

I have a problem with my CD/DVD drive.
My hp pavilion dv6500 laptop is not recognize the drive, dos not show up in the device manager, I right click on the IDE adapters to scan for changes, I hold down the F9 to see the start up order of the drives it’s OK accordingly to factory settings and I would like to ask some one help or advice what to do. My cd/dvd drive was working when I installed the new operating system from the CD on the new WD SATA hard drive. I have not portioned the new HD during installation of the OS because I need all the space on the HD. When I checked the drive letters I only have seen a C drive. Missing the call letter for the CD/DVD drive ‘example E’ for the cd/dvd drive.
The commuter is running great now, but I using an external HP CD drive to install all my software. I using the Driver Detective software to trying to detect the cd/dvd drive, but it’s useless. I do hear the drive when I put in a CD or DVD it is connected to the internal power source, but not been seen or recognized. If any one can help I would be very grateful. [text removed for privacy]

Hi,
You could try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below.
Windows 7
Vista
If the above fix hasn't worked, try the following. From the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Click to open the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers. Right click on the first channel and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When uninstalled repeat the process for each channel. Also if an ATA controller is listed, right click and uninstall this. Again, do not delete drivers if asked.
Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. If your optical drive appears here, right click and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked.
Restart your PC and let Windows re-install these devices. Give it a minute or two, then see if the drive is working.
Let me know how it goes.
Best wishes,

Hp pavilion dv6500 upgrade to windows 8 64 bits

hi guys i have an hp pavilion dv6500 laptop with 64 bit processor and i want to upgrade it to windows 8 64 bit but during the installation am asked to select file or insert cd containing the drivers before proceeding with the installation. can anyone help me with a link to download these particular drivers please.....

Have you run the Windows 8 compatibility checker?
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-from-windows-vista-xp-tutorial
Open the Device Manager and see which devices are installed. That is important and will save a lot of time. Verify the wireless and wired network interface devices. Otherwise we will have to find out what they are the more difficult way.
You can install and run CPU-z to find out which chipset and graphics device is installed. Use the tabs. Once we know those, then finding the drivers is a possibility. The notebook may be a bit far back in generations for Windows 8, but Windows 8,1 does have a large builtin driverstore so it is a possibility.

HP Pavilion dv6500 strange fan noise after boot up

Hi everyone,
I've got problem...when I boot up, I can hear strange noise which comes out from the laptop fan. It sounds like a loud buzz or something like that and appears only after boot up and lasts approximately for 2 minutes, then disappears.
I've already tried to clean the fan with air compressed can, but with no luck. Then I completely disassembled the laptop, unscrewed the fan and heat sink from the motherboard, cleaned it and replaced the thermal grease on the CPU and GPU. Despite of that, the noise appears again.
I know that this model is five years old, but if there is any other option than replacing the whole fan with new one, I'll really appreciate it. Thanks for your advices.

What should you do?
Whatever you want, I personally sold the laptop for 700€ and bought the cheapest new Asus 15” dual core laptop I could get for 300€ and you know what... it s working great for a year and a half now and most important ... QUIET so much that I didn’t hear it even once for now even when watching HD movies or doing a 3D games, and I really mean it NO SOUND AT ALL! …
Happy forever, but it was a great lesion for me with HP Pavilion "quality" products.
P.S. One another thing, build quality is even much better at laptop for 300€ not to mention the Pavilion for 700€ where all the so called chrome decorations almost fallen off,the DVD tray or slot had strange alignment to the whole laptop (little bit cranny) and so on…. Bottom line it’s too much fragile.
HP is for me forgotten story, period.
Have a nice day.

DVD drive not recognized because of a registry problem (Code 19). HP Pavilion dv6500

HP Pavilion dv6500, upgraded several years ago to Windows 7 32 bit. In the past few days I have noticed that the DVD/CD-ROM drive does not appear on My computer/ Windows Explorer. I also incidentally noted that my program "HP Total Care Advisor" no longer works: "HP Advisor has stopped working" is the error message I get when I double click the desktop Icon. I have made no changes to the computer, nor have I installed any new software shortly before I noticed these problems.
I went through troubleshooting for most of today. The DVD drive does appear in BIOS and in the Device Manager. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the device and it's drivers. I believe the correct drivers are present but cannot be installed. I believe the problem is expressed in the following error message which I have obtained: "Windows cannot start this hardware device because it's configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged (code 19)."
When I saw this I thought a restore of Windows would do the trick. I went back to Feb. 1, 2012 but that did not help. Then I reversed that restore and went back to Jan 25, 2012. That did not help, so I reversed that restore and gave up on restore.
I have no experience in the registry, so if the solution is to make changes in the registry, I will need very specific instructions.
Thank you,
Allen Worrall

Installation SSD into laptop HP Pavilion g7 2025sr

I want to add SSD into laptop - HP Pavilion g7 2025sr. (SSD Transcend SSD370 Premium 128GB 2.5" SATA III MLC (TS128GSSD370))
Questions:
1. What about the compatibility with this laptop?
2. Could I use a SSD on maximum settings (reading-530 MB/sec, 470 MB/sec) ?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

No problem. The SSD will install and work. However, you ask whether it will take full advantage of the potential speed of the SSD, which really means you are asking if the SATA ports can do SATA-III (600 Mbps) transfer speed. The chipset used, AMD A70M, is capable of SATA-III and all indications are that your laptop will do SATA-III transfers. Even if not, the difference between a SATA-II and a SATA-III is negligible. Using a computer is like driving a road course, not the Bonneville Salt Flats. Very rarely do you hit the top theoretical transfer speed. So do not overthink it just go for it and enjoy.
