I woke up at 6 to go work, i left my laptop on all night, so i decided
to shut it off before i go to work.
I JUST came back, and when i start it, the HP loading screen works,
then it loaded in my vista home premium. i type my password, but it was
frozen already.
So i restarted my laptop. and it loads teh HP screen, then blank
screen. I tried to wait for 10-15 mins. still blank screen.
I tried to use the PHXBIOS and did a Hard Disk self test.
The status: #10009 - Replace Hard Disk
WHAT I DO?
OMG
ALL MY Univeristy homeworks in tehre !
:'(
PLEASE HELP!
I RAN SYSTEM STARTUP REPAIR USING VISTA RECOVERY DISC
AND THIS CAME OUT FROM THE RESULT:
root cause found:
system volume on disk is corrupt
Repair action: file system repair (chkdsk)
REsult: completed error code = 0x0
time taken = 312985 ms
so is my harddrive done?
Is there ANYTHING i can do? I really want to keep all my files.
If your data is important to you, stop trying to recover it yourself and
take the computer to a professional who is skilled at data recovery.
Anything you try at this point could well be destroying the data that
remains on the drive to the point that even a professional cannot recover
it.
Oh, and for future information, consider backing up essential data and
documents to an external device, network drive, etc.

Unless you are technically competent you stop doing anything and take your
PC to a reputable repair shop.
Or you download, create the bootable disk checking utility available from
your HD manufacturers web site, then boot from that disk & run a check If
you dont know the HD make, try Seatools from Seagate

Does System Restore mean all my files are wiped and the whole system
restores or..?
For the command Prompt. I did exactly what you said. and each time it
says successful. When i typed bootrec /rebuildbcd, it told me to wait
for a bit, then the Successful message came on afterwards.
I don't know how to do the Seagate hard drive test, do i use a USB
stick? (sorry i'm not that good with computers when problems arise
because i'm scared i'll do something wrong and completely destroy my
computer)
Thanks

Ok, my Gf is having the same sorta issue on her HP pavilion dv6000. But
you guys seem to keep talking about the HDD... I dont know about you but
I can load up safe mode in either comand prompt or /w networking. HDD
still there, all data is fine. If you can access safe mode i recommend
it for backing up your shtuff before bringing it to a "pro". Ive lost
data because idiot "pros" just decide to do a complete reinstall....
morons!
So here's my theory. Video card issue. Although, i did read something
about it being a CPU issue, but maybe the problem differs with the users
and forum threads ive seen about this.
Another theory..... which isnt much of a theory its more a
statement.... VISTA IS HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DELETE IT NOW AND BURN
THE CD/DVD IN A RITUAL, CLEANING YOUR SOULS!!!!! either that, and/or HP
Pavillion is the problem with its cheap HP parts. Thank god for
warrenty.
Anyways, I think the guys earlier saying to go to a "pro" is the best
solution, BUT, I recommend that you enter safe-mode, back your data up
and go to a pro. or even reinstall windows first(after backup) THEN go
to a "pro" if that fails. Just back up first >.< I lost 80gig of music i
was recording over 13 years after bringing my PC to a shop. Lucky I
recovered it.....
HP Pavilion dv6000 won't load vista 
Linear Mode
