@denzel I don't think so. if it is then he wont have been able to install it in the first place. Known issues with this range e.g. disabling the sata in the bios so as to install xp and get hold of sata xp disk in other to work. had it been he installed xp ontop of vista without disabling sata controller in bios then definitely i will say yes it might have contributed to the problem. bro the things is yeah if he can get to the bios then that's good if not then reinstalling vista will sort it. ![]() |

wackhack:Dear Wackhack, connect to external display such as a monitor or LCD TV then test if you get a display then you need a Bios update. let us know and one of the tec we be able to pinpoint you to HP website. If no display after connecting to a monitor then you are looking at hardware problem. Here is your diagnostics hold 3 of 5 fingers on J, K, L and press firmly on each key at the same time for 40 seconds this usually resolve most issues then test. if no joy pop the battery out+charger and any other device attached such as external mouse etc Dont be alarm ! hold one of your finger on the laptop power button for 40 seconds this usually get rid of any static build up then test with no battery. immediately keep pressing f10 to gain access to the bios where you a blue screen press f9 or anything that says load default settings then f10 to save and exit then wait should boot up to windows didnt shutdown successfully. start windows normally then give us feedback and the next tec will be able to attend to you. however Hp has confirmed hadrware issues with this range of laptop. Please scrool up and find the link i posted to a user with similar problem. Good luck and thanks for enquiring. |
WafiJoe:Any update on the diagnostics you were advice |
deji2009:Having said that a business like yourselves should have server expert. to be honest this is not the best place to get server support. I'm talking from the business angle .Good luck ! |
Dwind:thanks for enquiry, I'm having difficulties understanding what you meant. Here's an example of a problem. I have Dell 610, XP or small business server my clock stop or not ticking. That's an example. Good luck ! |
guseman:Thanks for providing the above information and looking at the problem so far. I'm afraid this is a hardware issue and need to be service by a technician. ok on you left hand side where you have the power button try pressing on the plastics and see if you same noise. if no joy then is a hardware issue. Good luck |

WafiJoe:https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-401363.0.html |
he exception unknown software exeption (0xCOOOOOd) occurred in the application location highlighted in bold is a clue as to what the problem is. an application is causing conflicts somewhere as a result your computer was very slow. best bet is to follow denzel advice boot to safe mode by pressing f8 repeatedly none stop then uninstall those programmes i ask you to and give us feedback Good luck ! |
WafiJoe:Dear Wafijoe, Thanks for your recent enquiry, the advice you were given was absolutely perfect. However you may wish to carry out more diagnostics to narrow down the cause. I take no panda security installed ? if it is simply go to control panel or use google to find out how you can uninstall panda software. I take you don't have norton or limewire installed ? if it is could you please remove them as well then test. Afterwards press control + alt+ delete go to task manager then processes look for tpsrv.exe and try ending the process. you can do this first before you do the above doesn't matter. Next time we would appreciate you telling us make and model of your computer, this is to speed and guarantee tec replies. Good luck ! |

If you are comfortable with this let me know ASAP so we can arrange a time If ok to do this you will need to download http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx Save it then run it and follow on screen instructions as this needed to establish a connection with your workstation. I look forward to your reply. Good luck ! |

How many beeps ? |
guseman:If you followed my instructions, what version is your Bios ?

Good luck ! |
RuuDie:Here's your diagnostics Start, computer / my computer what does it say on the list ? What connection are you using e.g. USB Cable or Firewire et cetera Good luck ! |
@Guseman I'm marrying my bed now should you need further advice please let us know. meanwhile disconnect your laptop charger and exit the blue screen until you were able to follow the previous diags ![]() |
guseman:Thanks for reading and following previous advice. Actually, I believe the #1-07 error is the result of SMART failing in the SATA controller. That is a mainboard issue, the hard drive may be just fine. For assurance, you might try to test the drive with the diagnostics and repair tools from the drive manufacturer. They all offer something like Hitachi's DFT (drive fitness test) on their websites. HP inbuilt HD test can sometime deceive. so, am reckoning is motherboard fault not a hdd. reading through the link i gave you i am satisfy to let this off as a motherboard replacement, however try updating the bios like i suggested on my previous reply. to make sure your hard drive exist go bios again look for main on the left hand side then should say Sata Hitachi or similar. let us know what it says then give us a feed back. in addition try playing round until you see an option to check for your bios version could be the old version. for better understanding check http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01087277&lc=en&cc=us#c01087277_bios Good luck and thanks for enquiring |
@1knight what you mentioned isn't telling much. do you mean RAM ? laptop are not easily upgradeable as suppose to a PC, however if you have extra slots you can upgrade your video card, sound etc. What's the make and model of your computer ? This will help us Good luck and thanks for enquiring |
@nnamadi In other to achieve this you will need SATA to IDE converter. if you live in the united kingdom pop in to your local branch pc world or currys and enquire about SATA to IDE converter or ask at your local computer shop. This is a link explaining it's functions http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=IDE+TO+SAta+converter&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 Good luck and thanks for enquiring |
guseman:I will strongly recommend reading HP advice with the link i gave you. take your time and see if you can copy Bios update unto a cd/dvd from a different machine pop the disk inside your laptop and follow on screen instructions. Best bet follow the link i gave you. you will need time to go through them. Good luck ! |
@dehning Here's your diags Turn off Turn on keep pressing F10 until a blue screen appears use your arrow key and go down to diagnostics hard drive self test go for long test and make sure laptop is running through the mains. after the test you will given a result pass or fail. if diagnostics is not available no worries leave it on the blue screen while is plug to mains examine for 1 hour until it shut itself down, if it does then is a hardware fault. if it doesn't shutdown withing an hour is a software and will be a case of reinstalling everything back to scratch and make sure you backup your data. Good luck and thanks for enquiring |
guseman:Dear guseman, Thanks for the above enquiry and do appreciate your explanations. HP DV series laptop has known issues which is widely known. I'm guessing 2 beeps at start up, is that right ? Does it boot into windows ? if it does then you will need a bios update to resolve this issue http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01087277&lc=en&cc=us If does not boot into windows take out the battery and charger and hold down your laptop power button for 30 seconds then test. Do not take it to a technician until you have followed our instructions then technician. The last resort is for the engineer putting a new motherboard which cost alots + labour et cetera. Good luck ! |
semidaraeb:Dear dominique Like my colleagues have suggested if not try taking photos with your phone or digital camera and attach it as .jpg format. when saving the photos look about 6cm below should say save as make sure is jpg then upload here for the tecs to see. Good luck ! |
