Windows can't be installed.
Someone is selling this laptop on eBay classifieds. He mean:
Unfortunately, it keeps showing that Windows can't be installed.
So he didn't try anything with a USB stick or something. Do you think that you can 100% fix this problem if I should buy it? So restore yourself
We can't judge that from a distance.
And we don't know what the previous owner has really tried.
But one thing is definitely clear: If you buy the computer and you really can't install Windows afterwards (for whatever reason), then you were warned and you have no lever to complain or the computer as "it is different as described "to give back.
So it is entirely your risk and that does not change with your question here.
There's no such thing as absolute security. Unless you replace absolutely every component of the laptop.
In many cases you can certainly do something with a new installation, but I would not believe that he has not tried a new installation with a stick. And if that were classified on Ebay, I would be sure that it is abzoke and a defective device.
Simply format the hard drive -> the easiest way is to remove it and insert it into a desktop PC. Then format it to a Windows 10 standard format -> very likely NTFS.
You can simply format the disk, or insert a different one, and the problem is solved.
You do not know that. If you have hardware errors, all possible errors can appear regularly.
And it is also supported by the fact that it is sold on Ebay classifieds where there's no legal security (in most cases).
If it's the record.
Waldmensch70 can only join me
to which it could be that there's a bigger problem
or you need a new license for Windows in addition to the book -
Reformatting could possibly solve the problem - but it could also be more helpful to buy a new one.
Who knows
You don't have a guarantee.
Good luck. As a rule - you can do anything. And if there's a picture, the rest could also work.
Tap on RAM or hdd defect
but of course it can also be something else
It can't be on the mainboard, nor on the CPU, GPU or RAM, so it's on the hard drive.
If there was a RAM defect, the PC would not even start, but since it starts, it should be on the hard drive.
You, everything has already been there!
that can also be a cold soldering point on the mainboard or or or…
Oh and why can't it?
But then the PC would not even start, but it does see the HP logo.
There's unexpected restart or other problem. This can be anything.
If it's a constant mistake - yes
but if there's simply a contact that is not 100%, then that's enough
This is laptop
I know, but you can still take out the hard drive. As I said, the easiest way to format the hard drive is a desktop PC, as a laptop hard drive will hardly fit into every laptop, but it is guaranteed to fit into a desktop PC case with the correct connections.
I don't know what you do with a Windows 10 operating system but a new installation would be the last resort. For my part, I don't restart my Windows 10 at all because I can also use the Linux Tools in Windows 10, thanks to the EMU system WSL 2.0 and Timeshift, everyone should be familiar with it. Not only can hard drive snapshots be taken, no, you can also do great things Simply save data incrementally or recursively!
Good morning and hello construction manager,
dear, what kind of an expert are you? I already had a defective RAM and yes Windows 10 but my Windows 7 Ultimate Edition doesn't care because the RAM is usually doubled, that's no problem with 32 or 64 GB RAM, only if the memory were completely full then it would also hit the defective RAM chip, the same works when booting a GNU / Linux with defective RAM.
And what is this supposed to have to do with the subject?
