You caould purchase an external caddy to house the hard drive, this way all you need to do is plug it into usb port saves having to open and close the machine and also worrying about which cable goes where

Trying to recover my hp pavilion a735w with cd. get to screen where i choose os to recover. I have 1 H; minint 2 H: i386 and 3 C: windows. I have a compressed ntldr error and was able to copy ntldr fr

this could be an indicator of a damaged hard drive. It can also be caused by not booting from the CD itself. ensure your booting from the CD. if you are, it appears that the file structure on your harddrive is damaged and needs to be replaced..

check your user manual for booting from the cd, its usually pressing F9 when the system boots (where it ask you to press del to enter setup, you can also enter the setup and set the first boot device as CD.

HP pavilion a 735w will not power on

It can be one of two things; either power supply or motherboard. Try replacing the power supply (cheapest part) and go from there.

My HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx PC Notebook tries to start then just a black screen and blinking cap lock light and number lock light . No hard drive is running. I took out my hard drive. It seems to work...

Try removing the bottom most memory card and rebooting. I've had three units that the lower memory slot caused this problem. Good luck.

If you have luck with this please let me know at [email protected]

You need to first check the settings of mouse in the control panel and try to plug in the mouse again ,,, and check if rnot try to reinstall the windows , it might be because the driver you have on the system has gone corroupt

I have an Hp Pavilion a735w pc desktop and want to instal a 64 bit Operating System to it. Is my a735w pc compatible with x64

Dont know check the intel website for requirements then put you model into the web and you should get the chip set and cpu and memory types and compare to the requirements but of hand you need minimum P4 with at leats 4G and a good video card to see any difference.
