Trying to do a clean install of win7 on a new ssd. Seems to be going well until time for reboot. then things go downhill from there, until nothing responds. Nothing I try works. I tried from both a iso win7 disc, and from a disk I have from my desktop. Same results. Is it possible to do a recover onto a new ssd? If so, how?
View 6 RepliesI have a N5110, with OEM Windows 7, recently I buy Windows 8 Pro, but I cant Upgrade or Fresh install on my laptop, the installation does not complete or finish, after several restart Windows 8 bootscreen with new logo shown, but never finish, finally after 4 hours I force shutdown the system, when I restart, the system tell, installation not finished, NO ERROR message shown and automatically rollback to Windows7.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just got my brand new Y510P and realized that is unable to start Windows. Initially it displayed error "Windows could not parse or process unattend... [...unattend.xml] for pass [oobeSystem]..."
After reboot it start displaying another message - "Windows could not complete the installation... restart the installation".
The operation system is Windows 8.1.
Looks like I'm not the only person with this problem. System recovery doesn't work, obviously (as well as graceful Lenovo tech support).
I think that the problem caused by incorrect unattend.xml file which fails to install some unnesessary software and because of this error blocks Windows from finishing the installation.
I see no other way rather than install Windows from another source. I don't want to pay for another Windows license and rather send the laptop back to Lenovo, but maybe there is another way?
I ran the eRecovery tool with the Backup data option. The laptop restarted but stalled on the 'Setup is starting services' screen. The following error appears: "Windows can not complete the installation. Setup will continue after restarting Windows". The restart process begins but it stalls again at the same spot.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is a laptop without Recovery Discs, where the original drive partitions were erased and reformatted as 1 big partition. During Vista installation, it always reboots just as Vista is on the verge of "Completing Installation". So near and yet so far. The BIOS shows the hard drive as an IDE drive - even though this is clearly a SATA drive. Is this a driver problem? Do I need to load SATA drivers before having Vista go through the installation?

it says: Check backup space (important) The disk that your backup are being saved doesn't have enough free space
So when i try to do this manually, it also fails to complete. There is 19.80GB of space in the seperate drive D: for recovery backup yet it only seems to be using 2.41GB's then fails to complete
This also is shown when accessing the drive through my computer when is says 2.41GB of free space available.
I have windows 8.1 installed and it had the same problem with windows 8
I just purchased a new Pavilion m7-1015dx Laptop and need to make the System Recovery Discs ... (which I realize restores the Laptop to factory default).. btw, I've already created the System Repair Disc.
However, I read an article about creating a System Backup Image that allows you to Recovery EVERYTHING if lost, all your installed programs, etc.
First Question ::: if I do the System Backup IMAGE ... Do I still need to create the System Recovery disc's (mfg's default) also??
The Second Question ::: If I create the System Recovery discs do I still need that Recovery Partition ??
I am really really wanting to partition my C: drive ... it's huge plus I hate seeing storage folders intermingled with system folders .. Currently using a Symbol/Character to separate them.
As of now, I can't partition the C:drive as all partitions are used.. max is 4 and I've got 4 .... C:drive, System Partition, HPTools Partition, and Recovery Partition.

I recently replaced a HDD with a new SSD into my Hp Pavilion dm4 1265dx and did a re-installation of windows. I have already downloaded and installed most of the drivers required but I am having a hard time trying to find and install Hp Simple pass identity/finger print reader.
Is there anyway to re-install Hp simple pass without having to pay?
After the complete melt-down of the old WinXp, I installed Win7 - so far most of ti works. However, WLAN doesnt work. (P/N is PY869PA#ABG, it also says dv1303ap on the label)
Is there any driver for WLAN available? Witout WLAn or internet access the good old HP is pretty useless....
Few days ago, my laptop wasn't running well. I made a hard reset - remove everything and reinstall windows by using HP Support Assistant. It was done but when laptop reboot, a install windows message showed:
"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation."
So I press enter many times but it was that message. I have no time to waste. I use HP Pavilion Sleekbook 14-b013nr.
my laptop model is hp pavilion sleekbook 14-b065tx after installing windows 7 64 bit and also after updating the drivers the mute indication LED does not working. But its function is working. But other Led indications are fine.What would be the problem for this.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have hp pavilion dv6 laptop.I am trying to recover my whole system with the recovery discs i have created . But it stuck afetr windows logo on a blue screen with mouse pointer.
And whenever i tried to install from other media then its shows error 0Xc00000f.
On my HP Envy M4-1015dx laptop, I was editing a large image file in Photoshop, likely using a large amount of the scratch disk. In the background I had another Adobe program running though I had not engaged the application in the couple hours prior. Google Chrome web browser was also open in the background, with admittedly a lot of tabs open. So, the load on the computer/processor? was definitely heavy.
At this point, the battery died and the computer subsequently shut down. I plugged in a power source shortly after, and pressed the power button to turn the laptop on. The laptop booted and went to the welcome screen, I entered my password and the laptop got stuck on the "Welcome" screen that loads prior to opening to the desktop.
I pressed the power button to turn off the laptop and again to turn it on. At this point everything loaded extremely slowly. The screen where I enter the password moved extremely slow, taking at least 5 - 10 minutes to accept my keypresses and start loading the desktop.
Using any other application did not work, they became unresponsive. Attempting a system restore took over 30 minutes just to set a restore point and "prepare" the computer for a system restore. I was never able to complete a restore, I got an error during the preparation process.
It seems like the processor is just overloaded with even the smallest tasks now.
I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 and run Windows Visa Home Edition.I wanted to restore my laptop to its factory settings but the Recovery Manager wouldn't work. When I clicked on it it would just restart the computer without anything else happening. I then right clicked on the computer >manage> disk manager and made the recovery partition active. When I rebooted the computer it began showing:Bootmgr is missingPress Ctrl+Alt+DeleteWhich of course leads back to the same message after te computer reboots. I can't access F8 key. Only F10 (Bios) works. I don't have a recovery or installation CD as it didn't come with the laptop when I purchased it.Is there anyway I can change the active partition back to the C drive, this disabling the recovery partition? I read that it was possible to access disk manager from cmd prompt window, but I don't know how to access it since the F8 key won't work (makes just a bipping noise when pressed)?I am also out of the country so can't mail my laptop to HP to have it fixed.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've just replaced HDD by SSD and tried to make a recovery USB media by means of 8.1 recovery utility. The process takes suspiciously short time, but finishes normally reporting that media is created. The size of all files on the flash is about 200 MB. When I did the same media with HDD the size was 12GB. I tried to boot with that flash and it failed with a message about corrupted media or the like. I always believed that windows does not take into account the physical structure of the drive and cannot understand what's going on and what to do.

I downloaded HwInfo32 and it says my firmware version is "Drive Revision: VBM24D1Q"
And then below it shows "TRIM Command: Supported (Indeterminate Read After TRIM)"
Does this mean mine already has the trim firmware?
i currently have two 1330s... one with LED and one with CCFL
The LED is a toshiba LCD2306, the CCFL an AUO Optronics, the CCFL looks MUCH better which seems to me total nonsense since the LED is supposed to be better in all aspects.
I will be contacting customer service. Should i be asking specifically for the samsung LED?
I was wondering if anyone else has the 128GB Samsung SSD in their Studio XPS 16 and having stuttering issues?. Lately I have been having a lot of stuttering issues in which the mouse cursor freezes up.
Also, anyone running Windows 7 on it? I cant seem to get higher than 5.9 as the HD score under WEI. Anyone got a higher score?
I was wondering if anyone knows whether Dell is shipping Latitudes with anything more recent than the Samsung RBX Series 1 SSDs..
View 4 Replies View RelatedJust bought a Samsung SSD 840 series 500GB drive to improve the performance of my Dell m1330. Placed the 840 in a HDD - USB adaptor and migrted the OS to it. Unfortunately the bios can't see the new SSD even though the 840 should be backward compatible with SATA I and II. The bios revision in my m1330 is A15 and I have tried both ATA mode and ACHI mode without any succes. Tried the drive in another m1330 same thing but when trying with a Packard Bell the SSD works fine. Have any of you succesfully added a SSD 840 to your m1330
View 2 Replies View Relatedjust got my new E6400 and I am having a problem with dual external displays. My displays are:
Samsung 204B (20", 1600x1200)
Dell 1708FP (17", 1280x1024)
The problem is the samsung only works using an analog VGA cable. If I even plug in the DVI cable, the samsung will not detect any output from the laptop/dock. I have tried installing the samsing display drivers, but that did not fix the issue. This was not a problem on my old thinkpad T41 that this new dell replaced, so although possible, I doubt the monitor has suddenly developed a bad DVI port.
If I use the Dell as the primary with the samsung hooked up using both cables, I can see two instances of the samsung, it just won't display anything until I pull the DVI cable.
My E6400 has the NVidia NVS 160 card. Running Vista 64 with the 64-bit NVidia drivers from Dell.
I had a 1680x1050 Glossy LCD (SEC3350). I called up and Dell, jumped through the hoops and eventually had them send me a replacement LCD. I called the tech this morning and asked him who manufacturer was, he said LG..
I was ecstatic. In my excitement forgot to check that the sticker on the LCD infact said WXGA+ across the front.
Dell replaced my WSXGA+ screen with WXGA+
The screen quality itself is really good, but there are two things I'd like clarified before I place my replacement order again.
I am planning on buying my Studio XPS 16 as soon as Win7 comes out and i really want a SSD with it. Unfortunately, Dell only sells the Samsung SSD drive which has been getting so much negative press lately on Anandtech.
So my question is, what should i do?!?! Do i give up my dream and instead go with a standard Hard drive for now, or take a chance with the Samsung SSD
my system spec are in the sig and its attached to a t260HD model monitor. When ever i have SLI enabled, yellowy orange colors causer my pixels to shift left and then return to their normal position a the screen refresh rate, so its like they are ion both places at the same time, just blinky for a lack of a better word. Now this does not happen on my regular laptop screen, and when i disable SLI this does not happen either, I just got new 8800m GTX SLI from dell because that was thought to be the problem but its still continues, Ive changed alot of drivers does not seems to be doing anything for me, going to try the tweakforce ones soon. I was thinking maybe my DVI cable is bad? Test that out before i test other monitors. Was just reaching out for any ideas about this problem, would just like my monitor to hands down work =/
OK quick update, now that i have new cards i put the original Dell baddy drivers on and its not doing it..but thats is very strange...why would a driver make an only SLI and only external Monitor issue......and on another note i really cant stay on this driver, i get SLI hitching issues in eq2 with it crysis runs better on single GPU mode, i need to find a driver that does not cause this....also i found a tendency for my white colors to turn yellow on my laptop monitor from drivers at the same time i would be having the tearing if i was on my large monitor, but on the stock one i can close the lid and open it again and the whites go back to the right color...
