I'm having problems booting a Armada 1750. I downloaded the diagnostic disks from the HP/Compaq website and it reports problems writing to the HD. I tried fdisking drive (removing both the C: drive's partition and that tiny non-dos partition at the beginning) and just reformating it but...

Hi! I need help with a bad hard drive. I have a Compaq Presario that I bought in 1999 (2000??) whose hard drive is failing. It is a model 161494-002. A few months ago I got a message (that pops up when ever I boot) that the hard disk detects drive failure is imminent. I just kept hitting F1...

I am thinking of changing my busted 30gb harddrive for Presario 2715US ( 2700 series) with a 60gb harddrive. The only problem is that the original harddrive was 9.5mm but the new 60gb harddrive is 12.5 mm. Now I am not sure if Presario 2700 series support hard drives which are 12.5 mm thick? Has...

I had to perform a "quickrestore" on my 5834 Presario. For some reason, the DVD and CD Rom drives do not show up in device manager. They open and close and when media is placed in them the drives spin, it's just that windows does not seem to be recognizing them. I checked the connections and...
