• Creation of backup recovery disks

  Hello Forum,

  When you use the backup recovery disc creation program, is a copy of all the recovery disc (d created or are the files from the (c drive also copied?)) With this drive, I'll then be able to restart my laptop with a new hard drive.

  Thank you very much

  FM.

  Hello

  While the recovery discs are just a bootable copy of the recovery partition D, operating after replacing the HARD drive, it will reinstall all the original scores (Windows C, HP_TOOLS, recovery D etc.) on the new drive - the machine will be in the State it was at the time of purchase.

  Kind regards

• Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator does not work on my Satellite P300

  Hello

  I need to make my drive recovery for my Satellite P300 (PSPCCA-05V01Y), but the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator does not work, as it is said that it is not a file on the pc HARD drive recovery.
  I tried before, and he had a problem with the core files, saying he was corrupt.
  So I was wondering if there is in any case I can download the installation of HARD drive recovery so that I can install and put it back to "factory condition" and reburn the recovery disk?
  Cheers for any help
  Mikey

  Hello Mikey

  The situation is quite complicated. When you've got your laptop recovery files was recorded on the second partition in folder HDDRecovery. The second partition and backup files should not be modified.

  If you did something with the second partition or this file recovery Toshiba creator cannot find these files and the recovery media cannot be created. This will work with the factory only settings. but I see another problem there.
  Theoretically, you can now install new OS using the installation procedure of recovery HARD drive and with factory State, you should be able to create DVDs, but if the Toshiba Recovery creator can not find the files I'm afraid that the installation of HARD drive recovery can have the same problem.

  If you want you can test. Try to start the installation of HARD drive recovery.

• create the VISTA recovery disc

  A friend set more than his HP Pavilion dv6226us running VISTA laptop.  The hard drive was full and the machine could not be used for anything else.  Keep wiping the dirve and start over, but there's a VISTA disk recovery for the machine.  The D: partition where HP backup files has been deleted from disk Recovery manager is not an option.  Check the HP support site and there is no the recovery disc for HP for this laptop model with VISTA, at least when I entered all the information on the site it does not list anything.

  Could get rid of Vista and then later could use the recoevery drive to recover vista?

  But note that the recovery disc erase the drive HARD integer for you should backup your data first before using the recovery disk.

• Satellite A200 - burn image HD recovery discs?

  I'm working on a Satellite A200, who does not the recovery discs and now seems to have one messed up the Vista installation.
  Before I started working on this, I created images of backup hard drives 3 partitions (C:\, TOSHIBA SYSTEM VOLUME & HDDRECOVERY) which I backed up on another computer.
  My question is, can I create these images recovery discs? The machine boots, they are saved on triple XP, Vista & W7, they were created using ShadowProtect Desktop.
  I can mount the images in each operating system...

  As far as I know this can be a problem now. Recovery media can be created when the laptop to factory settings. This means that available "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" tool and recovery image placed on the second partition.

  When you move this image of recovery elsewhere and return later, sometimes "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" cannot find files and more.

• recovery disc for pavilion dv2910us

  My daughter has a laptop HP Pavilion 2700 and the hard drive is dead. She never does backup discs (personally, I think that saving a little money by sending is not a disc with the laptop's poor business).

• Help! Maybe I need the recovery disc for pavilion d4790y... + I think I messed...

  I had problems with my office for awhile now, think it might be a fan, virus, hard drive or ram as in my previous post... the computer would freeze/crash or not stop, requiring a firm hard. trying to reboot/restart computer, it would beep several times until I have let it sit for a few minutes, then everything was back to normal (found that might have been an error in the BIOS after all this happened)...

  Now, I have NOT touched or replaced all the components on my computer at all. Nothing! Now I have a debate on the upgrade of OS and RAM, but did not decide whether it was worth on this older machine. So I have done no amendment or change in software. the only change I made to it was not renew norton and goes with vast (free).

  The other day, it suddenly wouldn't boot Win Vista 32 in all. My monitor at startup (before config utility appears) had colored vertical lines across the screen. I immediately thought 'virus' or ' fan isn't card graphic blown is screwed/false driver downloaded... I enter safe mode with network, no problem with the monitor (no lines) and tried driver restore, but also to download nividia the updated. Nothing seemed to work except safe mode (s), system configuration, start the Setup program, CTRL I (don't remember which menu is), & screen of the system restore/repair/diagnose. I tried all the reboot thing pilots config, patterns of change (hard disk only), boot it. When you go to the splash screen (a back screen on startup), no line either... I tried the system restore, did not a thing... I tried the verification of diagnosis, all right... all equipment, the repair of the system did nothing...

  So I take the side box power off to check the components inside to see if any wiring was loose, fans not working/salty, etc... everything OK there besides fan a little dirty. Clean, same thing. Here comes the fun part...

  Now, I backed up all my files and 'backup' on my external hard drive... I thought that I had made the recovery discs or he had came with it when I bought it... I changed the configuration settings RAID0 by removing the old installation and turned to the raid no drives. Then, I created a RAID0 again... I guess you know where this is going...

  He said now insert the boot cd... Now, it of not anything but let me in Control Panel and change the startup preferences...

  I have no recovery disk or I can't find what happened if I have... with backup (for USB) external drives will not work... I kind of looking online hp without result and I saw some online, but that seems pretty shady, especially with the case of the OS...

  I will not buy another office, if I can help it, but I need to know if there is something I can do?

  Thank you

  Hello:

  Yes, I've been able to do it once, but you also need an operating system installation disk. You need a USB FDD + OS installation disc and the correct drivers of course on the floppy drive.

  You can use a recovery for this drive yet. It must be an OS installation disc.

  Yes have ultimate could be a problem. If you enter your model number on this site of surgeons in the computer, you get a lot of options showing the recovery disks for different versions of the OS, but only had listed actually drives.

  You need to call HP and ask or email these surgeons computer guys and see if they have the recovery disc for ultimate games.

• Using a USB flash drive for backup more driver and application backup recovery

  I have a 32 GB flash drive I used to create a recovery for my Aspire S7 backup using Windows 8.1. I understand that in creating this backup everything on the flash drive is deleted before creating backup. Can I now use this drive for other purposes, e.g., pilots and backup applications, pictures, documents, etc., or this flash drive now should he remain dedicated to the sole purpose of being a backup recovery?

  Hi zimmerbob

  I keep as a backup to dedicated recovery flash drive and use one for drivers & applications.

  It is always wise to keep the recovery discs, as well as the recovery disks. Flash memory is quite inexpensive for the moment!

• Recovery discs and product keys?

  My laptop came with no recovery disc and began to play up if I want to erase everything and leave. The disks of backup that have been made are only records do not and do not let me recover the system. Can I use a disc of recovery from another PC, but enter the product key for the laptop? My two machines running Vista Home premium. The disc of recovery for a Dell desk top and my laptop is a Sony. Is it still possible to interchange the recovery discs? I have to download different drivers for the laptop before you erase the hard drive? Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Gary.

  Hello

  Sorry, but you cannot use a recovery disk on a Sony Dell.

  This applies to all of the different brands.

  And if you have problems with the backup disks you made, read this information toreinstall Vista:

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Need recovery disc for a new disc of AF. Where can I buy these?

  My original for HP hard drive model p6267c died and I had to buy a new one.  However, the recovery disks that I made when I bought the computer do not work.  I found a page on the HP Support pages that show this is a known issue with the Advanced Format of AF drives which is what is my new drive and my original recovery disks will not work which they do not.  Recovery does not have the operating system in scores on the right for it to start Windows.

  The page that displays it is: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03509131

  However, it says to contact HP Support.  My computer is no longer under warranty and he said I have to pay to call, send, or cat who is ridiculous.  If not, how can I get this new set of discs without being on the telephone or in a chat for a long silver cost period just know where to order these discs.

  I need drives for Windows 7.  I tried to purchase the full version of Windows 7, but can't find it otherwise, I would have been this route.  I tried to use Norton Ghost to copy my information from the old drive to the new without success.  I also tried restoring a backup and discovery of Windows is damaged.  It's my only option other than to get a new computer.

  I'm afraid that if I just ordered the new drives online, I couldn't correct records.  I have need of those shown on the link above and not those similar to what I created myself.  I appreciate a link to a page where I can order the new for readers of the AF.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I don't see any way to get these 'up-to-date' recovery discs of HP, other than calling them.  However, there is a free and legitimate way to create your own Windows 7 installation disc as shown below.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( must be the same version that originally came with your PC - IE Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a very respected source (Digital River).

  Images of Windows 7.

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/how-to-activate-Windows-7-by-phone.aspx

  All pilots additional and the software, you may need can be found here.
