Samsung r530 bad sector hard drive. Did not come with operating software disc.

Remove the HDD and test, replace if necessary. You can contact Samsung, with your laptop Serial Number, and purchase a Factory Recovery DVD. Or, you can buy a Windows Installation DVD and do a Fresh install on the new HDD.

Samsung laptop wont switch on

More than likely the power cord/charger is dead or the battery is. Bring it to a tech store and see if you can test out a new cord/charger and battery.

Hello, Tracy.

You may have a hardware error - hard disk may be going bad.

Run your computer's diagnostics by pressing continually pressing F12 (it's possible for your system that another function key loads the diagnostics) upon boot and choose diagnostics. Let it run but pay particular attention to the hard drive diagnostic. If you get an error, your hard drive is probably going bad and would need to be replaced.

If not a hardware error, it's possible that there is a system file problem. Boot your system again, but this time press F8 to access System Restore. Choose a date when your system worked OK and follow the process.

Hope this helps.

The hard disk has been corrupted. You will need to completely format it and reinstall Windows using a separate install disk. Either obtain from Samsung a recovery cd or borrow a generic install disk from someone and reinstall using it and the key on the sticker.

My brother's samsung r530 wont boot up as it is asking for a password before booting up window 7 what should I do?

That is most likely the BIOS password, the best solution would be to ask your brother for the password so that you can boot to Windows and use it.

My samsung r530 wont read its hard drive. how can i fix this problem?

Unscrew the screws that hold the hard drive, unplug the device, clean the header with some medicinal alcohol. Also clean the motherboard header(where the HDD is connected) in the same manner. Leave it for a couple of minutes to dry, then plug it again.
If it is not working try to test with a different hard drive. If it is working than your hard drive is broken.
If you need further assistance, or have further questions, just leave a comment. Thank you for using FixYa. Cheers

Unfortunately, in my past experience this particular model it seems to have a very bad habit of hard drive failure on a regular basis. The particular samsung hard drives used in it are horrible and so is samsung support. You don't say weather or not you can boot from the CD/DVD drive with a live cd in it, but you should try getting one and trying it out.

Get a copy of Hiren's boot cd from here:
http://www.hirensbootcd.org/files/Hirens.BootCD.15.1.zip

Extract the iso and burn it to a CD, then put the CD in your CD/DVD drive and boot from it. Use some of the Hard Drive 'diagnostics on the CD to determine if the Hard Drive is Dead Like I think it probably is. Then Contact Samsung support from this page:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/NP-R530-JA02US

Keep after them until they address the problem to your satisfaction. This is a VERY common problem with this particular model so give them an earful!
