758617 2009-03-22 21:36:00 OS: Vista Home Premium
Machine: HP Pavillion dv6000

Stop Error: 0x0000007E (0x0000005, 0x883AA402, 0x87199B58, 0x87199854)

1. Performed the HDD self-diagnosis test (from BIOS setup), hdd failed the test.

2. Took out the HDD, connected it to my desktop machine, causing my desktop to hang while loading Vista.


What does the above stop error suggest?

758618 2009-03-22 21:48:00 If its SATA, did you go into the BIOS (on the desktop) and change the bootdisk?

When you connected it, it may have changed the bootdisk in the BIOS, (to the above hdd), which is why it hung, when you tried to boot into Windows

And if it hung on the desktop, its probably because the hardware isnt the same

Yup, have checked the Boot disk in BIOS.

When loading Vista OS, it hung at loading windows screen.

Put the HDD back to the dv6000, tried to reinstall (repair) Windows, half-way through, the above stop error appears.

758620 2009-03-22 22:13:00 If its a blue screen, does it show the name of a file / driver??

If it does, whats the name of it?

No.

Suspect it's the HDD - still under warranty.

BIOS could not detect the HDD.

758622 2009-03-22 22:28:00 Can you boot from a UBCD4Win and perform a chkdsk? Blam (54)
758623 2009-03-22 22:35:00 Umm you didnt change it from SATA / ACHI to IDE in the BIOS, then change it back after did you?? It'll crash

Altho, you shouldnt have to do this, if its got a restore partition (to restore Vista).

Didn't chnage anything in the BIOS settings.

The original (from HP) HDD has been replaced with this one a few months ago, there's no restore partition.
