@VGA, before you go and spend your moneym, try this very important smart disk failure: means your hard drive need replacing.this is common on the compaqs and HP. what you need to do to be 100% sure is or not mechanical fault is to do Hard drive test in the Bios. dont be alarm ! here how, Turn off your notebook back on again dont wait for anything repeated pressing f10 on the keyboard you get a blue screeen that says bios setup utility use your arrow key to across to diagnostic highlight Hard disk test press enter should says test now executing and should tell you if the hard drive is health keeping my fingers cross there's a chance it will fail the test, as the computer cant detect the hard drive exampel let me break it down for you is like a car without a key in the ignition, it wont start. will it ? you get me |
