Product: pavilion g6
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
Hi,
I have a boot problem.
when i do the Harddisktest it gives a failure:
u4G42K-5SU8HT-MFPV5F-60W303
with product id: A1Z63EA#ABH
I used UBUNTU to save files from my harddisk, so i can see the maps.
Is it possible that it is stil broken?
regards, Patrick

Hi,
It had failed. You need to replace hard drive with new one of similar form factor
2.5 inch SATA HDD

Use recovery media to factory reset after replacement.
Your came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

You can use LiveCD to try to copy files:

Yes you can also take HDD out, connect to another PC using SATA to USB adapter. Then copy the files you need.
