Windows will not load

Im getting the message replace hard disk 1 on my hp mini 210, xp,

Hi,
The error would indicate that your Hard Drive is failing and will need to be replaced.
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 the notebook ( from the service tag underneath your notebook ) - see Here for a further explanation.
Regards,
DP-K

  • Windows will not load on a Satellite A350 with 500GB Seagate external HDD

    There is an issue with this A350-043 Laptop running Windows Vista Home Premium 64Bits, part number : PSAL6C-04S015
    Simply put: when connected to a SEAGATE 9NK2AL-510 500GB SATA DRIVE EXTERNAL USB (s/n: 5QG1YH1E) Windows will not load, it goes upto and freeze just prior to the green moving bars. If the USB cord is pulled out and put back in for a second, Windows continues to load normally and all is well.
    Otherwise, the OS will take up to 15 minutes to load. Looking in the BIOS features, there is no option to boot from USB available, so it cannot be disabled. I have upgraded the BIOS of the Toshiba to the latest version with no change in that issue.
    I have tested and confirmed that the issue persist no matter which USB port is used.
    The external drive is fully fonctional and there is no errors or issues with it when Windows is loaded. I am reported this issue to Seagate as well as Toshiba in the hopes that a solution can be offered on that, but did not hear back on anything as yet.

    You mean the notebook needs 15min to load the Windows OS even if the external HDD is not connected?
    This sounds weird and I doubt this can be related to any software issue
    First of all you should check the booting order in the BIOS the USB should be set at last or second last position.
    Secondly you should check if the same issue would still persist after an new OS installation in some cases the booting procedure could be affected due to installed software and background processes.
    But if the new OS installation does not help and if the issue will still persists then I assume that an hardware problem (motherboard????) could be the reason for that and therefore an notebook technician should be contacted!!!
    Thats my opinion

  • Windows will not load while a USB is plugged into P67A-GD53 (B3)

    There are a couple issues here but that is the main one that I'm dealing with. I just built a new rig a few days ago and for some reason Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit will freeze at the Windows logo if I have any external devices (USB, speaker jack, etc.) plugged into it. If I unplug everything from it, Windows will start as normal, I'll just plug everything back in after the Windows logo screen and I'll experience no issues while running. I've installed all drivers that I could from the Windows device manager however, I was not able to boot from the drivers and utilities disk that came with the P67A-GD53 (B3). The CD would load to the Winki install options screen, I'd select to install and then the screen would go black. When I load the disk from the desktop the online update option sends me to a 404 page . No beeps on start up. Any ideas?

     Did you do a fresh install of Windows on the HDD or is it an old install and simply transferred HDD from old system?

  • HP ProBook 4530s, Windows 7 64 bit Blue Screen – Windows will not load

    How do I get Windows to open. I have been having trouble this past week, Windows starts to load (Starting Window), then the blue screen is dsplayed.  Earlier this week I was able to use a restore point in January, and Window opened, but that restore point is not displayed now, only February restore points.  Below are the various error messages I received this week.

    So pressing the power button and then immediately tapping the F8 key about every half second does not start Safe Mode?
    Safe mode will allow you to access Windows system restore, which will allow you to recover to a restore point dated before you had this problem without deleting any of your data. System restore is also reversible.
    That is a bit surprising. The test you posted the results of show that the memory and the hard disk are fine, so it is an operating system issue. If you try again to access safe mode without success then you only have a few options. 
    1) remove the disk from the notebook and put it in an enclosure to copy the data and files you have it to another PC
    2) perform a factory image recovery to recover your notebook to a useable condition (unfortunately deleting all of your personal files and data)
    Best regards,
    erico

  • Windows will not load or install, PLEASE HELP SOON

    I turned on my computer today and it said:
    Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
    \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
    I restarted and it worked fine.
    I then turned it on again later, and got the same message.
    After re-seating the cables, cutting the power, trying to start in safe mode, etc, etc, I decided to try a repair.
    The repair just got stuck when I pushed '1' for C:\WINDOWS. It just did nothing after that.
    I tried to reformat. I put in the Windows XP disc and it loads up and I push F8 and it says "Searching for previous installations of Windows...". It did that for about ten minutes with no HDD activity until I finally shut it off.
    Could ANYONE help me with this??? I am in college, and need to use this VERY SOON. It is 8:42pm RIGHT NOW and I need help BADLY. If at all possible, I would like to re-install Windows rather than reformat as there are some very important files that I need to back up before I can do a full reformat.

    You haven't said anything about your system configuration, or whether it has had previous problems. This information would be helpful.
    Make sure that the boot drive is correctly indicated in the bios. If you have more than 1 hard drive, I would temporarily remove the second one (assuming the OS is on the first drive). I've noticed that Windows Repair install seems to easily get confused by the disk configuration with the Neo Platinum.  This would also help if your power supply is marginal (if you diconnect the power as well).
    A helpful thing to have would be a Knoppix cdrom. this is a cd bootable version of Linux that can be used to inspect your hard disk contents, and key files such as the boot.ini file etc. Also, if Knoppix runs, you can have some confidence that key system components are functional.

  • Windows will not load up

    I installed the latest firefox update, was working for a few minutes, and then the computer froze up. I restarted my computer but windows won't load up, either in safe mode or normal mode. Startup repair won't load either, it just cycles back to the error recovery page. My laptop is in a coma because of the firefox update. What is the fix?

    These are Bootcamp installation notes etc. Worth checking to confirm you have the correct version of Bootcamp for your computer and MS OS.

    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).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Computer wont fully start/Windows will not load

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A305-S6905, and was having a few issues with it.  I read on the Toshiba Product Support how to restore my laptop to the 'out of box state'.  While doing this it encountered an error and shut down, I saw people saying that this was due to a hard drive issue and that it needed to be replaced.  I replaced the hard drive, and still have no luck getting my computer to fully start up.  I tired to install Windows Vista Ultimate, and everything was going fine until the last step where it froze and shut down.  Now when I start up my computer it says "Windows failed to start" and gives me all the start up options.  When I select 'Start Windows Normally" it goes to the screen with the green loading bar that says "Microsoft Corporation" underneath it, and will go no further.  When I select Safe Mode, it stops and hangs after it loads windows\system32\crcdisk.sys and will go no further.  Any assistance will me much, much, much appreciated, thank you!

    Best to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. If you don't have the discs, obtain them from Toshiba.
       Order Toshiba Recovery Media
    I replaced the hard drive
    Please give us the full make and model of the drive you used. (Some with advanced-format technology are troublesome.)

  • Open link in new window will not work

    I am running Firefox 3.6.12 on Windows XP and have never had a problem until just recently. If I right click and select "open link in new window", a new window will open, but it is blank. This started about a week ago while playing Pogo...the game rooms will not load because they open in a new window. Now I am noticing that it is with everything, not just Pogo.
    I have tried checking and unchecking the "block pop-ups" option and the new windows will not load either way.
    Any help would be appreciated!!!
    Thanks!

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    I was able to get it fixed. I had received some responses and they had me

  • Thumbnails will not load in elements 12 organizer, using windows 8.1

    The thumbnails will not load (hourglass icon appears on each photo) on Elements 12 using Windows 8.1.  I have updated the Elements to Core Version 12.1.  Any ideas how to fix this?

    I'm sure that when I close the browser in either OS before switching to the other, the following two conditions are true in the Advanced tab of the Firefox Preferences menu:
    1) "Use autoscrolling" is enabled (with a check mark)
    2) "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" is disabled (no check mark)
    The autoscrolling feature allows you to scroll by holding down the middle mouse button and moving the mouse up and down. The extension you linked to, ScrollyFox, enables scrolling by clicking a button in the Firefox UI, which is quite a different feature. So unfortunately the problems still remain.
