Assistance in Troubleshooting a Failed Acer Aspire 1600 HDD?
Hello, I have an Acer Aspire 1600 laptop, It suddenly gave “Disk Error” message when booting – white text/dark screen/upper left corner. I reboot and it can not find HDD. The HDD is Hitachi DK23EA-40 (ATA-5 Enhanced IDE – not that I understand…), original from factory. I can reach BIOS – the HDD is seen there (Primary), but that’s it. I used the ACER recovery discs and they can not help. The issue (confusing) is that I keep on getting different error messages – all relating to HDD. Typical is to get after the “Press F2/F12″ stage in start up (dark screen/white text): “Disk Error. Press any key to restart”. With Win98 Acer recovery disc, I get a DOS prompt – managed to see c: driver
Hate to say this but the drive sounds dead. I have the 4520. The cheapest and most logical approach would be to get a USB external enclosure for the suspect drive (about $30.00) and put the drive in there. Then try to boot to it. If that fails get a new 2.5 drive for the laptop and install it internal. If all goes well you can reinstall the OS. If the drive is actually good it can be repartitioned and used as an external. If I am wrong the worst that happened to your drive is the partition is blown. Fdisk and repartiton
