Okay, so am just about pulling my hair out with this problem. Got a lappie in July'2009, still has good warranty on it so I guess I'll bring it in if I cant fix it myself. Only trouble is the store is sorta far so, am hoping someone is able to help me. When I turn it on, i get a message that says: "The SMART hard disk check has detected an immintent failure. To ensure no data loss, please back up the content immediately and run the hard disk test and system diagnostics". Okay, so I go ahead, windows opens (takes its time to open) but then it gets soooooo slow! Every letter I type takes about 3 minutes each to come up on the screen, and it freezes alot. I've tried runing scans through Norton, which works till it shuts down and I get a message that says: "Boot device not found. Please install an operating system on your hard disk, " I go to run system diagnostics, start-up test as well as run-in test. They all fail. I get message that says "hard disk does not exist" PLEASE does anyone know how to fix this problem and what in God's name could be wrong? I tried system-restore but it always fails too! Keep in mind that when I do open this lappie on safe mode, it works perfectly but of course, in safe mode some features dont work (e.g audio, which is a big issue because I love youtube! lol). Please help! (less your heart) |

AqRiUs Age: sounds like an hp 530 or somesuch - i have seen more than one model give that exact same message - i guess hp laptops ship with faulty SMART technology foe some reason, your bios is not detecting your hard disk. maybe u dropped or bumped it and the connectors are loose. sounds like a long shot though |

Guys PLS HELP, My CD-ROM icon suddenly disappeared from my computer Folder in my laptop , Since last month i noticed that when am using the drive either to copy/burn or to install a software, it will freeze(it will stop working.), and on futher probing i will discover that the CD-ROM icon is no longer were it is supposed to be, if i restart my laptop the icon will appear back and the drive will start working again. But since yesterday, the drive icon disappeared and i have checked all including device manager, and it is still not there. Pls guys I NEED YOUR HELP: bearing in mind that the drive is still being powered by the laptop (i.e it can still open), and XP is the operating system (from my research this problem is somehow related to Windows 7 and Vista). |

I use a gigabyte N521U laptop and recentlY I cant get past the booting stage on windows xp Everytime I turn it on it comes up with something like power was interrupted and there are start up options safe mode and start windows normally I've tried all the options but it all results in the same thing: a blue screen error that comes so fast I cant make out what's written and then d system reboots again I dont know what to do I tried repairing the windows by reinstalling it but it says c drive is in a different or unsupported format and needs to be formatted note all data will be lost |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by FBS: 11:15am On Mar 16, 2010 |
DreaShola:You don't necessarily have to do a fresh install. You can do a repair with an XP boot CD ( I assume you are using XP). When you boot from the CD, press R wait while it loads. . .you then get the command prompt (black screen) type chkdsk /r wait (it may take long) When the process is complete, type exit, it should reboot. (don't forget to remove your boot-up cd) it should work. Hope this helps. |

DreaShola:that's your que right there in bold. was there a power failure at some point when you were using the notebook before u started seeing the BSOD? like someone suggested, try to repair the OS (XP, in this case) and if that doesn't work, you might be looking at replacing the HD since it's hard to tell what kind of stop error code the BSOD is showing u when that happens. note however that, if u have to replace the HD, make the HD that's having the issue the secondary drive and try to extract your data from there. good luck! |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by DreaShola: 9:08am On Mar 17, 2010 |
FBS:It didnt work At d end of d setup it showed press enter to install in selected partition or c to create a new partition and l to delete f3 to quit setup I tried d two partitions but all I got was the partition is damaged corrupt or in an unrecognized format And then I was asked to format d hard disk If I format it will d applications dat came with d laptop remain? |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by FBS: 9:35am On Mar 17, 2010 |
DreaShola:You probably did not do the right thing or used the wrong boot disk. Did it give you the option to repair? R Here, follow this step- by-step instructions http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/How-to-repair-Windows-XP-t138.html If you format your HD/partitions then all your applications/documents will disappear. Gone with wind. If its the HD that is giving problem, you might just replace it then. Hope this helps. |

All, Always buy computers with at least one year usable manufacturer warranty. Most computer problems start gradually, especially board and power issues. So if you are spending over 100k for a laptop, at least make sure you can take it back to the manufacturer because you have been charged almost 25,000 Naira for the possibility of return and services. At http://www.discountNG.com, any computer and other electronics you purchase comes with full manufacturer warranty that will be processed by the company if need be. Although you will pay for shipping cost to send the gadget back to the manufacturer. They also provide you with a loaner laptop that you will be using while your laptop is still in transit and in the manufacturer's service center. Want to buy? http://www.discountNG.com accept Cash on Delivery Think about it |
