You said "The hard drive that come with the computer is a wd 500 I'm try to replace it with seagate 250 gb ". You must replace the hard drive with the same capacity (500GB) or greater. Please do not exceed 2 TB. If you never made your ONE TIME set of Recovery DVD+R media, then do it now.
PS<> It makes little sense to jump all aound the various HP sub-forums seeking an answer. Also, when asked a simple question "what is the product number", it's a tag on the back of the AIO, you just go wandering off to post in another forum. Are you testing our resolve, or are you worse?
