HP/Compaq :: Nc6230 Does Not Boot

Jun 3, 2009

I have a compaq nc6230 that was working fine over the years and suddenly when the power button is pressed, the unit powers on and displays the HP splash screen for about 30 seconds, then I get a Non system disk or disk error. The unit then shuts off its self.

I have swapped known working RAM and Hard drive with same results.

Also, when I enter in setup the hard drive diagnostic option is grayed out ( with or without hard drive installed ).

HP/Compaq :: Dv5 Won't Boot

Mar 11, 2010

HP gave me a dv5 as a replacement for a zd7000 laptop that quit.

Now the dv5 has quit. It won't boot. It gets to the HP Logo screen and freezes. It never makes it to the BIOS screen.

I chatted online with HP support. After performing a few tests (the fan runs, etc) they concluded its a hardware problem. They want $400 to fix it.

The unit is 16 months old. It has seen VERY light usage.

I've sent an email to the people who handled the replacement of my zd7000.

HP/Compaq :: NX5000 Boot Off CD-ROM

Jun 21, 2009

How in the heck do you make this dang thing boot off the CD-ROM?

It keeps wanting to load the operating system, regardless if the Windows XP cd is in there or not. I've tried pressing F12, F10, F1. Changing the boot options to load the "Multibay" first then the hard disk. It even pops up asking me what I want to boot from; multibay or hard disk. Choosing the multibay does nothing, it still loads the operating system regardless.

How do I make it boot the CD-ROM? I just need to get Windows XP Pro reinstalled on this thing.

HP/Compaq :: DV5 Doesn't Boot

Mar 8, 2010

I have a HP Pavilion DV5-1235dx(model) that I bought 1 year ago.

And 1 week ago its got out of order! Broked! Don't BOOT! I don't know why, but I tryed a lot of ways to do it! But doesn't work!

I have a medium knowlege of computers, but other people said me that can be the Motherboard! Really? I think that maybe the problem is other...

I'll explain what I did to try fix it.° I'd took out the HD, and tryed turn it on in SATA/USB adapter. But my Desktop doesn't Recognized the Removable Disk! (The adapter is working I tested with other HD) šI'd tryed boot without HD. šI'd tryed to put other HD with Ubuntu that I have working.šI'd tryed boot with WinCD (XP/VISTA/7). Didn't work either.My BIOS lists the CD-ROM Drive but didn't anyone of HDs that I installed then.

The START is ever the same. Doesn't matter what I do, the "HP Start BOOT Screen" load, enter in a black screen and doesn't load the OS.

HP/Compaq :: Presario Won't Boot

Dec 3, 2009

got a Presario V2000 that will not boot whatsoever.

Upon pressing the power button, the machine starts up and displays the standard "Windows could not start properly" screen. Every option I choose, from the three Safe mode options, to the Last Known Good Config, to Start Windows Normally will not work.

I choose an option and everything goes smoothly, the Windows XP splash screen pops up & stays there for a few seconds, then goes blanks for a slightly longer length of time before a blue screen pops up. I can't remember the first few numbers, but the rest I'm pretty sure is accurate:

(a series of letters/numbers is here) (Registry File Failure)

The registry cannot load the file
SysCommandSysCom32ConfigSOFTware
or its log or alternate
It is corrupt, (something I cant remember), or not writable

Beginning dump of physical memory
Physical memory dump complete
Contact your system administrator or technical assistance.

.....and it pretty much repeats over and over in a continuous cycle like this until I power it off.

What I'm wondering is where exactly the problem lies? On the Hard Drive--where the drive itself needs to be replaced or the OS just wiped and reinstalled fresh.......or is this indicative of a hardware failure...which would mean this lappy is pretty much dead?

HP/Compaq :: HP Won't Boot Into Windows

Oct 16, 2009

HP Compaq 6735s

I had some Malware and ran Avast to remove it. Once I was done with that I decided just to back some things up,and do a clean install.

I chose to boot from Optionla bay, I assume that is the CD/DVD drive, then put the XP disk in but nothing. It tries to boot and goes to the black screen with choices, like start in safe mode and a few others, none of them work.

I hit "esc" to just boot from HDD like normal and it still will not boot.

HP/Compaq :: HP DV5T Boot

Apr 7, 2009

I live in the northeast. Unexpectedly we got a snow storm and I left my laptop in my backpack in my car for 6 hours. I didn't realize how cold it was going to get. I got laptop just now and it won't boot. It reaches the HP screen, the hard drive looks at as if its going to boot and after about 3 light flashes, everything stops working.

I press F10 to get in bios, it doesn't go in, it just hangs. I press ESC to get to the start up menu, same thing.

What did I damage here? My hard drive, motherboard?

I have important files here I need for my accounting classes until the semester ends.

I removed the battery to just use my plug in outlet to see if battery was damaged, same thing occurs.

HP/Compaq :: HP DV2310ca Wont Boot

Dec 7, 2009

My HP DV2310ca laptop wont boot. I've had this problem before. When I had my warranty, I took it back to the store where I purchased it and they told me that it was a simple problem where the HD was not connecting properly to the board, so they simply reconnected the HD back to the board and it started working again.

Yesterday while in class, I had that problem again. I opened up the HD case and reconnected the HP back to the board but the laptop still wont boot up. I screwed the HD back into the casing and made sure everything was nice and firm, but it still wont boot.

Another question I have is that the BIOS screen is not coming up either. Even though my HD might not be detected correctly, shouldnt the BIOS screen at least come up when I boot the laptop?

HP/Compaq :: Xt125 Won't Boot From New Dvd Drive

Jan 2, 2009

I have an HP xt125 laptop that has a bad hard drive. I installed a new hard drive, but found that someone previously had monkeyed around with the cd drive, when i try to boot all I get is cruching and grinding. I installed a drive from a Toshiba laptop which is marked M/S (master/slave), where the original is marked CSEL(cable select). The bios won't recognize it and tries to boot from the hard drive. I have also tried a brand new DVD/RW drive (liteon DS-8A1p) with the same result. If I put the original cd drive in it tries to boot, but the drive is too damaged to spin the disc up to speed. I can't find any settings in the BIOS.

HP/Compaq :: HP HDX 18 Boot Failure Hdd Led Red Blink

Feb 13, 2010

I was using my laptop normally when suddently it began to freeze. No blue screen, no reboot, just freeze under Win7.

I did hard reboot to Win XP, same problem. And I re-tried to reboot under Ubuntu, same problem, freeze...

So, I tried a memtest because at this moment I was expected a ram problem, but nothing, 3 pass OK, no error.

BUT after that, next reboot, even no Bios...
Black screen, no bip, JUST the hdd led blinking in red.

So I tried to change the hdd (by a one I'm absolutly sure it works)
Same problem.
I tried to boot on a cd as well, it doesn't work.

What the meaning of red blinking on hdd led? (Normally this led is always white)

Someone knows the errors codes of the HP hdx 18t?

I'm supected a cpu or motherboard failure.

HP/Compaq :: Still Doing It- 23 Times To Boot Up Properly

Jun 19, 2009

Well my HP dv6000 is still acting up.

Sometimes the laptop will not fully start/load. Meaning it never fully reaches the point when you can surf the net.

When it is not fully functional my mouse will not work when I click on IE or even the start button it can't activate them. It moves but does not activate any icons.

So I'll have to manually shut the lap top down by pushing the power button.

Next time it boots, It may not get to the point where the wireless is not up and running so I can't get IE to run it seems to fall short on booting to that point.

Then I have to hold the power button down to get it to reboot and start again.

Most all the time on the third reboot everything will work fine and run normally.

Time to reinstall my recovery discs and start clean ?

HP/Compaq :: Can't Boot 6820s Because Of Virus

Nov 12, 2009

I got a new 250GB hard drive for my HP Compaq 6820s hard drive a few weeks ago and now I can't boot from it as it's been infected with a virus which prevents it from booting. [I get a brief flash of the infamous "Blue Screen" before it returns to the HP screen.

Is there any way; software-wise that I can clean the hard drive of any viruses if I put it in an external caddy?

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavilion Dv6428ca Won't Boot

Oct 6, 2009

I am trying to diagnose a friends laptop.

At first I thought perhaps the backlight went on it, but since then i've noticed a few other issues.

When I power on the laptop everything lights up and I can hear the DVD drive and HDD startup normally. But I get no HP splash screen and the monitor doesn't seem to power on either. Which I'm guessing means it's not posting, cause I even plugged it into an external monitor and it doesn't even pickup anything and goes to sleep mode.

After about 10-15 seconds it looks like the laptop reboots itself and starts up the DVD and HDD again but nothing...it just loops.

Is there something wrong with the motherboard ? I checked the monitor for a loose connection and the laptop in general for any internal loose connections and everything seemed fine.

My guess is the motherboard went and maybe the backlight at the same time...I have no idea...

HP/Compaq :: Vista: CPU 100% On Every Boot (HP Pavilion Dv2200)

May 26, 2010

I've had my HP dv2200 notebook since Vista came out and yes I've had problems with it, but I've never had this one.

Since two days ago, every time I boot up, my CPU is running at 100%. This is from a full start-up or even out of hibernation mode. After 10-15 it dies down to 5-15% but occasionally goes back up to 100% even when idle.

Besides going to the usual sites I go to, I didn't download anything or visit any sites I'm not used to going to. There was a Windows Update I had in my task bar for several days that I finally installed, but it didn't require a restart.

My anti-virus software is avast! free version (latest version w/ definitions updated).

Under task manager there are two svshost.exe's that jump around from 30 to 50, and Firefox is at 50 or so when I try to run it (which takes 30 seconds to open during the 100% cpu). And when the CPU does die down to 5-15% it says that 'System Idle Process' is jumping up to 95 which doesn't add up.

HP/Compaq :: Can The DV2700 Boot From Mini-pcie

Apr 4, 2009

I have a spare PCI-e slot in my dv2700 (originally for evdo card) and I was wondering if its possible to get a mini-pcie ssd (like from a dell mini) and boot from that.

I am aware there won't be much speed increase, perhaps even a decrease but might be nice to be able to just use the hdd as secondary.

HP/Compaq :: V2000lightning Symbol Flashes But Won't Boot

Apr 9, 2009

I bought a Compaq v2000 a few years ago, has worked fine up until a couple weeks ago.

Now, it won't turn on. The battery (12 cell? extended version) has probably been dead for a while, but we always use AC power so no big deal there.

Currently, if you hit the power button, the amber lightning symbol on the front just flashes 3 or 4 times, then nothing.

Take the battery out, same thing. Take the AC adapter out, same thing.

My initial guess is battery or power supply are toast, but seems weird for it to just die like that (guess that's how it is with electronics though). If it is a total loss, no big deal, just need to get the hdd out and copy stuff off, the laptop probably needed replacing anyway...

HP/Compaq :: Dual Boot Vista And XP On 6735s

Feb 15, 2009

purchased a Compaq 6735s notebook. It came with Vista installed, but he wanted XP as that is what he is familiar with. Also wanted to have Vista to become familiar with that os. I partitioned the drive changed the SATA setting to IDE in CMOS and installed XP Home on the drive. On reboot it now defaults to XP but doesn't recognize the Network Controlller and several other "unknown devices" Of course I am unableto connect to the internet to download new drivers etc. So my questions are: What information is necessary to diagnose this problem? Where can I find that? (and) How can I choose between OS's at startup and avoid device compatibility issues?

HP/Compaq :: Boot Device Not Found- Hp Tx2500z

Oct 17, 2009

I have a hp tx2500z

When I turn on the power for computer there's a beeping noise coming from the hard drive I think and this message comes up in blue letters with a black background

" Boot Device Not Found

Please install an operating system on your hard disk.

Hard Drisk (XXX)

F2 System Diagnostics

When I run the system diagnostics for the Hard Disk Test, it says:
"Hard Disk Test Failed
Hard disk not exist"

What do I do? I went to the website but its suggesting that I basically may have to do a system recovery to the factory installed state...I have a lot of stuff I don't want to lose.

I also tried removing the hard drive and putting it back in, that didn't help either.

I called tech support and I still have my warrranty so I will be getting a Hp box to put my tablet in within a few days. But they told me I would most likely lose all the data I have saved.

Then I used a liveCD in hopes of backing up my harddrive but the liveCD won't even boot..unless im doing it wrong...( burn iso to CD, then load CD into laptop, and press f10? and/or turn on computer with CD inserted in and then let it load if it wants to?)
