Compaq Presario 12XL401 hdd problem
Compaq Presario 12XL401 / Win ME used to freeze up at random
intervals. I decided to make a system restore with the factory CD but all I got then was "Error #29" and after that there's "missing operating system" on the hdd. I tried to fdisk/format the hdd but the hdd would only format up to a certain % and then exit saying: "format not completed". The laptop boots well from a bootable CD of FDD, but it doesn't see the C: (hdd) anymore. Any thoughts on what to do next are highly welcome. Al |
hi
unfortunatly it sounds like your hard drive has failed and you'll need to replace it. - tom Alchemy wrote in message . .. Compaq Presario 12XL401 / Win ME used to freeze up at random intervals.
