Dell Inspiron N5050 crashed and upon boot, I got this black screen. Upon seeing this, I did a diagnostics test. I did both a thorough and quick test and got this message showing that the hard drive didn't exist. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to fix this or do I need to replace the hard drive?

Dell Inspiron 15 N5040 :: Laptop Has Failed Hard Drive Diagnostic

Dec 9, 2014

my laptop has failed the hard drive diagnostic with an error code of 2000-0142, and looking here in the forum I see it means that I should replace the hard drive. That being said, I am not actually having any problems with my computer. I ran the f12 diagnostic after a routine scan notified me of a smart short test fail and it came up on the diagnostic as well. Does that mean that at any moment I would actually see something happen?

Dell :: Xps 1530 Hard Drive Has Failed For The Third Time?

May 5, 2009

My xps 1530 is about a year old. The hard drive has failed 3 times now. The first two times I got a bit of advance warning with blue screens and error messages. This time no warning.

Rebot and error message that hard drive can not be found. I tried reseating the drive a few times and nothing. I have the solid state hard drives.

Is this a problem of the hard drive or the lap top? Can I request a regular hard drive from dell this time?

Dell XPS 13 :: Data Recovery From Failed XPS Laptop Hard Drive

Dec 20, 2014

I have Dell XPS 2013 laptop purchased in June 2013 with Windows 7 professional OS install in it. Suddenly the laptop stopped working giving an error message with complete black screen:

error: no such partition.
grub rescue >

When I took it to the service center they told me the hard drive of the system might have failed leading to such error. I am still unsure is it due to hard disk failure? On the top of that I have many important working files stored in the system for which I could not able to take back up. Is there any way I can retrieve my files? If I need to purchase a new hard drive which specifications I need to order. Unfortunately the system had only 1-year warranty period...

"Your drive indicates that a failure may be imminent. Backup all important files and replace drive."

The hard drive is SAMSUNG HM640JJ.

A couple of questiions please:

1. I take if that this is a legitimate error message as opposed to some system glitch.

2. If I buy another SAMSUNG HM640JJ drive how can transfer the data from the old to the new.

Dell Studio 1557 :: Cannot Load OS After Original Hard Drive Failed

Feb 8, 2013

I'm trying to load a new hard drive for my Dell Studio 1557 LT due to the original failed. I've worked on many PCs and LTs before and loaded software so I know the basics and then some. Problem is, when the LT boots from the OS from an external dvd drive -Win 7 64  when it attempts a write to the hard drive at the same point in the installation every time it blue screens then reboots. I cannot capture the blue screen info due to the immediate reboot. I have tried many utilities and other hard drives but the LT wont let me write to the hd to load an OS. I tried loading a hd from another pc then install it into this LT,  same results blue screen then reboot. Very strange as if the LT wont allow a new hard drive or OS to be loaded. I've been trying to get this loaded for a week now and have tried everything. The hd was even DoD low level formatted too. Is there s Dell disk I need to get it started ?

Dell Inspiron N5050 :: Little Clicking Sound From Laptop Hard Disc

Feb 26, 2013

I have a Dell Inspiron N5050. The hard disc of the laptop makes little clicking sound, which can be heard only in silence or if you keep it close to your ear, but yeah it makes those sounds continuously.  I bought it last year and I noticed this sound after like 4 months. I have the latest firmware update installed and also checked the hard disc for errors, but that isn't making any effect. It working completely fine. I use it moderately, some Ms office works and a sometimes games too, like about 6 hours a day. No hangs, No high temperature and nothing.

But since I've experienced trouble with the hard disc of a PC (which crashed within days after it started making sounds), i am a little tensed about it. Should i take it to a service center? will a hard disc format be useful. The sound is louder when the device is booting.

I am using windows 7 Home basic SP1 x64, the hard disc is ST 9500325AS 500GB, 2GB RAM.

Dell Inspiron N5050 :: DVD / CD Drive Doesn't Work

Feb 28, 2013

This computer is 6 months old.  It came with Windows 7, and I did install Windows 8 in October 2012.  I have had problems ever since and neither Dell nor Microsoft can support.  ANYWAY, until today, my DVD/CD player worked just fine.  I used it every few days, but today when I went to use it, the door would not open.  I notice the light next to the Open button is not lit up, but my device manager says it is in working order and the driver is updated. 

I tried Ejecting from the device manager, but it does not work.  When I ran the Dell Diagnostics program, it said that it was unable to run the diagnostics when there is media in the drive or the door is open.  There is a game disc in the drive, and the game works, but I think it is downloaded onto the computer, so maybe does not use the disc during play??  How can the drive work and not the door?  Is there anything I can do??

Is it due to the speed that new hard drive used for 3 months has been corrupted? In case of warranty, Lenovo does not provide a Windows license again, right?

Dell :: Inspiron 9300 Hard Drive

May 18, 2008

I've been looking everywhere for an answer to this question and can't find it. I have an Inspiron 9300 (old.. I know), and it still works great for everything I need it to do, except one thing. I have no storage space at all.

I've been looking at throwing in a new HD, preferably as large as possible.

The only problem is all the conflicting things I hear about these systems.

First off, I know that mine is an ATA model, not SATA. I'm definitely looking for storage space above all else. So whats the biggest drive this laptop will support? I've been looking at this one (Western Digital 250 GB 5400 RPM), but I've heard things about the bios only allowing hard drives up to a certain size.
