Posted 24 August - PM. I was able to remove my hard drive. I bought a HDD Enclosure and connected it to another computer. A notification poped up that the device driver was successfully installed. But when I go to My Computer I don't see any new hard disk drives added. I've tried connecting it to other computer but the same thing happens, it recognizes the device was connected but I can't see my drive in the list of available HDD.

You can connect the laptop SATA hard drive to a desktop computer directly as a slave drive without any converters. Posted 15 September - AM. I wasn't able to access my files in my old drive so I finally decided to bring it to the service center to have the hard drive replaced. It was there for almost 2 weeks and I just got it back. Problem is, some things don't seem to be working.
The multitouch functions of my touch pad are gone like the two finger scrolling. I thought that maybe some drivers weren't installed so I looked for the drivers in the acer website. I found only two drivers which is strange coz I thought there would be more. I reinstalled them but none of the problems were fixed. Please help. I assume you approached a local PC service center. So i recommend running a full surface test before making any software repair attempts.
Can you tell me the brand of your hard drive?. Posted 13 August - AM. As I understand it the SSD has two partitions, one for the operating system, the second I would presume is the recovery partition.
You will need to remove the SSD from the computer in order to determine who the manufacturer is. You can use Ubuntu to back up your files to a removable source of media, e. Please download Ubuntu , you will need to burn this to a CD in order to make a bootable disc. To do this please download ImgBurn. I've already tride opening it. I can't really remove the top part of from the bottom part because some flex cables not sure of the term are connected to both.
All I can do is to peak through a gap of about 4 inches coz that's how far i can open it. I apologize, I must seem really dumb at this. I've tried all the F keys but none of them really does anything. As i said before, I've only seen two screens so far, the acer logo screen and the blue screen with the error message. Posted 14 August - AM. I referred the manual of your model and it seems removing hard drive is very difficult in this model. Since the machine is still under warranty, it is better to not take it apart.
Please follow the below steps. Download Seatool disc image from the below link. Burn the ISO to a blank disc using Imgburn. Boot from the CD and run a long test with the utility. Report whether it detects any errors. Also, my laptop was bought in the States by my dada but I am currently in the Philippines it's no longer covered by the warranty.
I did try calling some Acer service centers here but what they all suggested was a complere reformat which sucks.
That's why I turned to you guys. An error message appears saying i should run chkdsk from windows. Then the whole thing just hangs. If i try to repair or even reinstall windows 8, will my files in a separate partition get deleted?
Before, I divided my gig hdd into two partitions, one for my system files drive c: and one for my media and personal files drive d:. Posted 19 August - PM Hi, I am currently running the Seatool but all the options an buttons are greyed out. What's and what shall I do? It was able to detect the 2 drives.
Posted 20 August - AM That's the problem. I can't select anything not even the drives. I can't click on anything. Posted 20 August - AM Should I already say good bye to almost a decades worth of pictures? I'm really losing hope. Posted 20 August - AM All the options are in grey. I can't even select the drives All the options are in grey. Posted 20 August - AM I've encountered another problem when I try the ntfsfix command on my drives.
Easy Recovery Essentials searches for errors and makes corrections to the selected Windows installation. This should fix all registry-related boot errors, assuming the last registry backup is available and is good condition. Since the error is often caused by a corrupt registry, checking and fixing the Windows file system with CHKDSK might be a good solution.
The corrupted registry may also be fixed by replacing it with a clean copy that was created on the hard drive when Windows was installed. Note that this operation will restore the system to a state that might be very far from its current state; however, it still should be possible to recover user data in that state. This procedure also should not be used if the computer has an OEM-installed operating system, because the system registry hive on OEM installations creates passwords and user accounts that did not exist previously.
This means that if these steps are followed on an OEM machine, then it may not be possible to log back into the recovery console to restore the original registry hives. First, a backup of all current registry files is made so that they could be restored if anything goes wrong.
