    Windows 10 screwed my laptop hard..


    Im seriously desperate.. can anyone help me with my laptop which HAD windows 8 pro on it recently (2days ago) upgraded to windows 10 and it worked fine until it froze, which by then I was surfing online for about 3 hours, so I hell down the powerbutton so it shut down. The automatic repair failed several times and I tried every option there was on advanced settings, EVERY last one of them, didnt work. Now I recently ran the HARD DRIVE CHECK both the extensive and quick version, both said that the Smart check: Passed while the Short/Long DST: Failed
    My failure ID is QE6KL3-0007NT-XD6V7F-61E703.
    My laptop is a HP Elitebook 725 G2
    Anyone who knows what to do? I am so close to give up and scrap my laptop but it has so much files and work in it that took my such long time to do..
    I cant see the windows logo, the only thing I see is the Hp logo, after it fades the screen goes black and my laptop doesnt do a thing until like 5 seconds after that it resets and repeats, its like an evil cycle.
    MY LAPTOP BLACK SCREEN, HELP! - HP ELITEBOOK 725 G - YouTube heres what it looks like, I know this is annoying but I really need help :/

    Upgrading To Windows 10 With New Hard Drive

    Hello,

    I was in the process of upgrading my OS to Windows 10, when an old demon, my screwed up hard drive, showed back up again, and it completely failed, and I can no longer boot up my laptop without replacing the hard drive. So I need to buy a new hard drive,
    so once I get my hard drive all in order, will I still be able to get my reserved Windows 10?

    Thanks!

    - Austin

    Well it was hard installing the new version, I chose to install it over local pc because via wifi it was stuck at 82%, and be screws I mean three tiny screws at the bottom of my laptop that I do not know if they are just there to for structural support
    or for something more.

    To be honest, a fresh re-install of Windows 10 is your best way forward.

    I made sure I did an image back up of my computer so if anything gets messed up I cam recover my system. From what you detailed about your system crash, it doesn't look good.

    Hi

    If you have lots of files on there you need boot from a Linux CD and get them off before you reinstall.

    Regards

    Ive downloaded the windows 10 Iso into a flashdrive but since my laptop doesnt respond after I hit any button which it requests after I go into boot options and select the driver but since the windows logo does not appear so does not the Windows 10 Iso thingy..

    I don't understand Swedish, but the message you get looks like a No boot device.
    How did you download the iso exactly ? Did you just copy the file to the flash drive or made it bootable with the media creation tool ?

    Yeah, i noticed, the bad thing about this laptop is also that it doesnt have a dvd inserter.. so the flashdrive with the windows 10 iso is my only hope I guess, even it doesnt help me so... yeah, basically im screwed.. I think..?

    I have a similar situation after upgrading from W7 to 10. I have backups of W7 on DVD and image backup on an external HDD. But like you, I do not suppose I can get into the machine enough for the backups to be accessed!

    It will not work if you just copy the .iso to the flash drive.
    Download the media creation tool from this link :

    Windows 10

    And follow the instructions. On the first prompt choose 'Create installation media for another PC'

    You can download a Linux bootable CD burn it an boot from it and get into your hard drive if it is not broken, if you can get into your bios and your hard drive is not listed that would explain no boot device, then you need a new hard drive and probably has nothing to do with the windows 10 install just bad luck that the hard drive has died.
