    Follow these instruction step by step. You will need a thumb drive to do this. I would go with at least a 4GB one.

    I have seen this work multiple times when the hard drive did not have the HP Tools partition.

    Source(s): TWB 35+ years of experience in the service industry. You name it, I have probably fixed it. I did not design it, I did not build it, I did not break it, but I am the one who can fix it. What that means is that I have spent a life time taking these things apart and seeing how they are made. The difficult we do right away, the impossible just takes a little longer. I hear voices, so please be quiet so I can listen to them.
