• Creation of the disk recovery Partition recovery disks or HARD.

  I hope that I get good advice from experts today.

  Is it possible to create a custom (mine) HARD drive recovery partition?

  Is it possible to create discs of recovery with all the updates and the installed program?

  Is it possible to update the recovery partition? (with whatever software and installed updates)

  For example, I have a laptop pre-installed with Win XP SP2 and I have upgraded to Win XP SP3 and for some reason any if I restore my laptop with the recovery discs or HDD recovery partition, the laptop will be restored to the factory loaded condition (this is XP SP2). Once again, I have to install all programs and install all updates (XP SP3). If we can create a custom recovery disks or custom recovery partition then we can very quickly restore the laptop easily to the last condition (condition at the time of the creation of the partition to restore or restore disks). It would be better if we can create the recovery partition as nothing else is needed other than the laptop for the recovery.

  Another option to achieve this is with Norton Ghost (or similar tool) but the problem is that we must always continue the Norton Ghost boot disk to start and recover the image. The compatibility problem with a model in particular must be checked. I installed Norton Ghost 9 on a laptop and the laptop turns off not with the shutdown command, and I have to turn off with the power button / stop. This problem was not to withdraw 9 of Norton Ghost. If we can create our own custom recovery partition, save us a lot of resources--time, money, broadband bandwidth and no tension of the installation of all new programs.

  Experts should Tips how to create the custom recovery partition and if this function is not available now experts should examine the possibility of updating the required HARD drive recovery partition.

  PRK,

  I assume you mean Windows 7 after having upgraded (since this is the forum for Windows 7).  Windows 7 has a disk Image feature that can do what you are looking for.  More information is here:

• HP PavilionTouchsmart 11 Noteb: storage capacity of recovery disk is almost full

  My question is: how to make more Revovery disk space?  It is almost full. Drive C is very well...

  I have a HP Pavilion Touchsmart 11 Notebook PC

  Thank you

  Hello:

  It is normal that the partition recovery disk is almost full, and you should never store other files on it.

  The partion made just large enough to hold recovery files.

  If you have stored files on the recovery partition, I recommend that move you elsewhere.

• How to format and re - install Windows 7 using recovery disks/Partitions?

  Hello..

  My product-

  HP DV4-5109tx

  Windows 7 (64-bit)

  I have a free space of 78 GBs that I'm not able to use... As when I try to use the "disk management" and right-click on the free space to "format partition" this option has been grayed out... !!

  Please suggest if I can use this space without formatting? (I was suggested for formatting)

  In addition, due to some other issues too I want to format my Windows (and reinstall) IE drive C so that the free space problem can be solved... Also I don't want no data in my other drives to be formatted...

  I have the recovery partition and the recovery disks sent by HP...

  Please help me how I can use them to solve my goal...

  Thank you

  It's simple, as I suggested in my previous post.

  Once you have a drive like the one on the image management window simply click New Simple Volume. Create a new partition called "New Volume". Make a right click on it and the option to format it will appear.  The strips on the 75,38 GB of free space in your image indicates that the selected action will take place on this point in the disk management window. You can change the name for the new volume in Windows Explorer.

  There is the hidden for drive recovery partition. now, I've wanted this disk recovery partition removed for more space for important files of video editing.

  I bought the support for laptop recovery CD - I have no need of the hidden partition.

  the INF chipset utilitty downloaded from the Lenovo Web site, and then installed some drivers downloaded - and all in perfect condition smooth running.

  now, I decided to remove that hidden partition containing the disk recovery - whatever happens after that, I have the recovery CD.

  "" "This applies only to Windows Vista.

  * Make sure that you have backed up your OEM code before deleting the Rugged hidden

  The hidden restore Partition Lenovo is a protected partition, then you will not be able to remove it through disk management as you would with any other normal partition. You can use Diskpart. You can still use these steps to remove the hidden restore partition if you have already done a clean install, but you will need a 3rd party software to combine with the main partition. It is better if you remove the first hidden restore Partition, then cross with a clean install using one of the many guides available on this forum.

  Step 1.
  Burn recovery media. Type "Recovery media" (without the quotes) in the search in the Start Menu. Open the application and follow the instructions.

  Step 2.
  Open the application by typing Diskpart either 'Diskpart' (without the quotes) in the search, or type "Diskpart.exe" in run by pressing Windows key + R.

  Step 3.
  Now with open Diskpart, you must enter the following command lines:

  I. type "list disk" without the quotes and press ENTER.

  II. Type in "select disk 0" and press ENTER.

  III. then type in "list partition" and press ENTER.

  IV. then type in 'select partition x' x = the recovery partition you want to delete (I think it's 1, I do not remember) replace x with the number of recovery partition and press to enter.

  V. finally type in "delete partition override" and press ENTER.

  That should do the trick. Good luck!

• Restore using the recovery disks on Inspiron 15 3521 supplied with Windows 8 Pro. Question on the recovery partition.

  I created by the user recovery disks.  I created them the day I got the computer and he made three of them.  My brother has deleted my recovery partition just now.  My question is, if I resumed my Inspiron 15 3521 using three recovery disks that I created, be it recreate the recovery partition in the process?   I just need an answer to this question, not responses indicating that, if I have the disks, I don't need the recovery partition, why would I want the recovery partition if I have the drive, etc.  I would like to just a simple answer to the question.  If I use the recovery discs, it will recreate the partition recovery with all the info, she was in it when I got to the computer?  Once the recovery is completed from disks, will be that recovery partition be there as the day I got the computer, so if I wanted to (I don't want to, but I'm just a question) I could still create the recovery of her discs?  Basically, the computer will be exactly as it was the day I got it home, recover partition and everything?  Or, it will restore the computer to the new plant, but not to re-create the recovery partition with everything she had in it the day I got it?

  Thanks in advance.

  Yes, it will be if you select the correct option.

• Satellite M40x - recovery disk removes all partitions?

• HARD does not work after changing the disk partitions recovery media creator

  Hello world

  After installing windoows 8.1 April major upgrade (win 8.1 presents as OEM), and have shrunk C partition to create a data partition "D", "Troubleshooting" option under advanced start menu is no longer available.

  Toshiba Recovery Media Creator does not work, too (it can not find any hard disk recovery partion).
  I got in the OEM recovery partition.
  I am also able to create a recovery using the Windows tool unit.
  You have no idea about it?

  Thank you very much!

  Hello

  Sorry to hear about all this. Unfortunately, you now have a big problem. I don't understand why you didn't create support of recovery before you started to change the factory settings, including to change the structure of the partitions of HARD drive.

  Mobile offered with factory settings a structure specific partitions and recovery recorded image is saved on the partition of drive specific and marked with invisible markers. These markers are visible for preinstalled Toshiba recovery media creator tool and when you start the tool can find points of reference and has full access to specific files.

  Unfortunately, after changing the original scores structure Toshiba tool cannot find these markers more and is not able to copy files from recovery media recovery. What you need now is the original recovery disk. Using this disk, you can install original recovery image and after doing this, you will have new factory settings.

  I know it sounds stupid now but you must order the original recovery disk and it can be done on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Equium A100-027: recovery disk remove second partition data?

  I installed the update of Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and now the laptop will not charge.
  I have a partitioned hard drive and will have to use the restore product disc.

  I have a lot of pictures and things on the second part of the hard drive.
  I want to know if I use the restore disc it will remove the imformaton on the second drive hard or as the first?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The recovery disk will format the whole HARD drive and will be also possible to erase all partitions created on the HARD drive!
  This means that you will lose your photos and all data stored on the HARD drive.

  Therefore, you must back up the data before using the recovery disk!

  Welcome them

• How to install Vista from the recovery disk without defining partitions?

  Hello

  I have my recovery disk and I have installed a new 320 gb HHD.
  When I installed the recovery disc, it re done the 160 GB partitions in each (2 partitions more the 1 recovery partition)...

  But I want to dual boot with XP pro because of software problems and I prefer it sometimes...
  I redid my scores, 1 - 51 GB for XP pro(32bit), 2nd - 51 GB for vista (32 gb) and the 3rd - 210 gb is for storage

  How to install with Toshiba vista o/s and stuff that comes with it on the recovery disc, immediately to the 2nd partition without affecting how I configure the hard drive...

  I have about 100 GB of photos, music, and cam vids on storage, with nowhere to put them, so I can't risk, because some are copy only (so it might be a good idea to let me know how I save this s on my storage spread in the DVD please)

  If I can t, then can some1 please tell me how to get my Toshiba OEM vista off this recovery disk or a link for me?

  Hope all this makes sense lol... Thank you

  If you have so much important material best save is to buy an external HARD drive and copy all this stuff here. I recommend buying the small 2.5 external HDD and when necessary, you can take with you and connect to any computer, if you want to view or copy this file. External hard discs connected to other computers with a supplied USB cable.

  Return to your partitions.
  When you use the original Toshiba DVD facilities, you will have 3 partitions.
  WinRE - partition and it belongs to the Vista operating system. This partition is not visible, and this isn't some sort of Toshiba recovery partition
  -C for Vista partition
  Or-d/E to the DATA in the partition. This partition is recorded recovery image in the folder called HDDRecovery
  I don't know what model of laptop you have, but this configuration is on all new Toshiba laptops shipped WITHOUT recovery media.

  Using Toshiba recovery media, you will be able to get exactly mentioned structure of the partitions. Support to recovery facilities using you WILL NOT be able to install Vista on the second partition.

  So if you want to have the dual boot with Windows XP Home edition, you can do following:
  -At first, you are going to install Vista with support of recovery and on the second partition, you are going to install your version of Windows XP Home edition
  -At first you will be installing WXP and then you can install Vista on the second partition, but you must use the Microsoft facilities drive. Recovery media can not be used.

  That's all I can say from my experience with such things.

• Recovery disk restore partitions as factory settings?

  My laptop is about 2 to 3 years of age and has 3 partitions, C, D and E as factory put in place.
  I found that the system (C) partition is now almost full and cannot be extended because the D drive is in the way to rehabilitate the part of drive E.

  Does anyone know if the hot spare will restore the partitions in the form of factory settings or y at - it an option to change the score put in place during installation?

  Hey Buddy

  Yes. As far as I know the Toshiba Recovery disk format the whole HARD drive and retrieves the laptop back to factory settings.
  This means that the whole HARD disk would have first formatted and all partitions would be deleted. Then the recovery disk creates the partitions again and installs the operating system and other things like tools and drivers.

  See you soon

• Recovery disk to a partition on Portege M300

  Hello

  I reinstalled my xp win since another cd of xp on portege m300 laptop and does not burn a recovery disk hard of the with windows that provided thoshiba computer, with his comments today that you burn your own backup instead of they send you an original cd of win xp. I want a cd backup/recovery cd now and I see that they compartmentalized (or what his name) a separate 2, 5 GB hd with the name "HDDRECOVERY".

  This resulted in my windows has installed on E: cause it's a 2, 5 GB partioned HDspace C: windows called and I could choose E: to install win xp and I didn't erase the siloed 2, 5 GB of space. I toughed I somehow could access this file of 5 GB HD 2, but it dosen´t show in 'my conputer' in the windows disk management tools not. You can't do anything in this manegmant tool so that it can show in "my computer". I would like to access this area and burn this HDDRecoveryfile so I can get my respective windows that followed when I bought the computer from the win xp serial that is provided under this cumputer did not work with my new cd of win xp.

  PS. How to install windows on C: If the installer of windows think that c is the 2, 5 GB partioned file? I don't want to delete it.

  Hello Andrew

  The situation with the Portege M300 is a bit complicated, but I'll try to explain. Portege M300 (I believe only in Germany) is delivered without Recovery DVD and also Tools & Utilities CD. The two of them can be created by the user, but only if the appliance is preinstalled at the factory. The unit of the factory preinstalled with original image contains a tool called Recovery Disc Creator. With this tool, you can create the two media. There is no way to do it without this tool.

  Unfortunately this tool you can not find on the Toshiba download page. Because of this, you can keep that partition on the HARD drive but it has no sense at all. You have your own OS preinstalled without Recovery Disc Creator.

  There are two solutions:
  1. you can format entire HARD drive, create clean partitions and install own OS using all things, that you can find on the Toshiba download page.
  2 contact authorized please partner in your country. They may try to order the original DVD of recovery for you. If this recovery DVDs is not available the service partner can make factory settings again but with costs.

  That s all I know Portege M300 and preinstalled software. If you have any other questions, please write again.

  Good luck!

• Satellite l.660-12 q - would the recovery disk rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition

  Talk about confusion. Does anyone know how to get a Toshiba C660 work after the HARD drive failed and the owner has stupidly NOT followed the instructions to make a recovery disk. Will be the recovery disk (if buy you one from Toshiba) rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition and install windows 7 (original OS) and accept the product key printed on the Windows license, attached to the base of the laptop. I have read a number of suggestions, but these have been considered incorrect by others.

  Surely, Toshiba must have a way to sort this problem.

  They read these messages?

  Hey Buddy

  I don't think it's really complicated, that I could find all the information about the recovery procedure in the user's manual

  The recovery disk must be created on the first day of purchase its recommended to create one in case something would be wrong with the HARD drive.

  The recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package containing Win system, drivers, tools and all the stuff pre-installed on the notebook.
  You bought the laptop and the system has already been activated so that you have need of t the key placed at the bottom of the unit.
  In addition, the use of the recovery disc formats the drive HARD integer (partitions too) and set the laptop in the same condition as at the first day of the purchase.

  There is also another option to recover the notebook called HARD drive recovery. This HARD drive recovery requires no recovery disk. The recovery disc HARD would be to use format ONLY partition C (System).
