• HP 15-ac108na: how to enter the BIOS and the RECOVERY of the screens, please?

  Hello

  Can anyone help? I need to know the keys to press to enter the bios and recovery screens. If I missed anything like splash screen, then I need to know this as well.

  Buy laptop just left Saturday. Quite happy with it really.

  Hello

  Shut down the laptop - like you are on Windows 10, do this by holding down the key SHIFT left click Shutdown to temporarily prevent a boot hybrid.

  Click next to the ESC key as soon as you press the power button to access the Start Menu.

  From there, you can access by pressing f11 recovery options or the menu of the Bios by pressing f10.

• System Disk Image recovery and system recovery discs discs

  These terms are very confusing.

  I had 3 HP computers to office over the past 15 years and have always comes to an ERD but my luck could escape and I'm going to need one of them.

  However, I'm confused.  I thought that as HP comes with a drive D: original Image, it would be enough.

  I make records of recovery or system disk Image?  Are they the same?  My HP Advisor on this computer again I do "system recovery discs!

  I would really like someone explain (in novice language) which mean the above and what I need to do?

  I appreciate so much people in the help forums, as I learned more from them than books I have.

  Hello Twinkie3, I suggest making the game to restore HP Recovery disks.  Even if you have the recovery restore D: hard disk partition, it may be damaged or if the hard drive fails and needs to be replaced, you would not be able to access the recovery partition.

  If you have to replace the hard drive, you can only insert disc 1 of the the recovery set and put the system back as it was when shipped. Without these records, you would need to try to acquire at HP for a cost to you, and after a while, they are not available.

  The set of recovery disks cannot be done once and only be used to restore your particular system.

  Normally, it takes 3 DVD discs but can take longer depending on the size of the restore partition.

  The HP advisor don't constantly remind important you to these disk since it's a step in maintaining your system over time.

• HP Pavilion dv7 system recovery questions

  I tried a system recovery using the HP DVD sent to me earlier and I put the first disc in and fine, sometimes about to hundred 70ish then asking disc two, I insert the CD 2 and it carries up to 100% then it moves to "deploy the files required for the installation of recovery phase" but does not move 0%

  I tried to use the portable computers own system recovery, but it does not at all.

  Ive took records, re them, put disc back in and stillhad entered no chance.

  Any ideas on what I can do?

  Hi John,.

  You're welcome and good to hear that it's all sorted out

• Recovery and system recovery disks don't work is not on the MS213 Pavilion (All in One)

  Hello

  I ordered the HP recovery discs as F11 will not work. I got 4 disks with one separated from the others. He said "use this first! The other 3 were combined, and they are marked the system recovery and disc 1 of 3, 2, 3 and so on. I restart the computer with the disk that says use this first. The disc starts to load and says loading files of Windows, or somehting like that. Then he said: Windows startup. I don't get the Recovery Manager menu. After a few seconds it ejects the disc, and there are 3 pictures on the screen, at the top left is like a circle with a check mark in it. With an arrow, it points to an ejected drive of a computer image on the disc tray. And it points to a picture of a computer with 3 drives. It seems that he tells me to put in the next disc. I put in one that is graduated from 1 to 3, the light on the drive flashes, and then nothing happens, regardless how long wait. If, instead of starting with the disk that says this first use, I start with the one who said that 1 of 3, after loading Windows files, it says something like "this disc is not for this computer.

  System information:

  HP Pavilion MS213 all-in-one

  Windows 7 64 bit

  Configuration of stock

  Background:

  It is a friend's computer. She was making a mistake "code purple" with the resumption of F11. She had someone watching and I don't know what they were doing, but when I got it, I was getting an error at startup. somehting like cannot find the Boot...

  I found a commercial version of Win 7 64 bit standalone disc and installed on the machine. It runs great, but it had to be for troubleshooting only, until I have the recovery disks.

  So, I'm stuck and would appreciate any help. I thought initially upgraded to Windows 8, but I thought that the recovery disks will be cheaper, and also the friend doesn't have to go through the inclination of windows 8.

  I will be happy to provide more information if necessary.

  If you can read the license key Microsoft Windows 7 of 25 characters related to the machine, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD. Remember, it is the version that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker.

• Update the BIOS and system health report question

  I have two questions to ask you.

  1. I just bought a Quad DV6T-7000 a month ago. I'm unable to create a report of health system through the control panel > performance & information > advanced tools > generate system health report.  I get an error saying "cannot run" with no other information. It apparently came from HP in this way. Something has been corrupted? I have configured my laptop the way I like it and have installed all programs and applications of my previous laptop, so I hope that I don't need to do an installation of windows 7 to fix this. It is not really important. But it should work.

  2 HP Support Assistant automatically installs updates to bios, or is it something that has to be done manually? I am currently set to auto critical or important updates. There is an update of the bios (f.22 I think) available for my Pavilion DV6T - 7000 Quad Edition, however, I am wary to update my bios given the many problems that people have after doing an update their bios.  So far, HP support Assistant has not notified me of the update and I have problems with the problems it addresses. Should I be worried?

  Thank you, appreciate your making this feature expert day!

But it should work. , You can run the System File Checker to see if there are problems of file system.  Open a command prompt with admin permissions and type sfc/scannow, and then on enter. The files of your operating system will be inspected and the files that are supposed to be corrupted or damaged will be replaced with fresh copies of the repository own Windows file.  If this does not resolve the problem, then I suggest that you run Windows update. There may be an update that resolves this problem

Should I be worried? I recommend not updating the BIOS if everything works. Updated the BIOS, just because you can, this is certainly an adventure risky for most people.

  Does your laptop have a UEFI environment.  This in fact safe update the BIOS if you decide to do.

   

  You can set the HP Support Assistant to install updates or to notify you when updates are available.

  I recommend that you do not set automatically update anything. My preference is that the Windows operating system and the laptop / desktop only doing what I want to do and when I want them to... That way I don't get surprises not unexpected and mysterious death blue screens or black screens.

• 100 - 11IBY laptop (ideapad) - access to the BIOS, start menu and system recovery

  My screen is broken and I need to clean my system. Normally I run on an external HDMI monitor. Bios does not have a driver for it. External screen shows nothing after hitting the novo button.

  No work around?

  As for the most part, if you want something, do it yourself.
  Just pull the plug on the back of the screen 30pin (you will need to disassemble the screen).

• Hp pavilion elite hpe-570f system recovery question

  I'm having all sorts of problems trying to do a reinstall my hp pavilion elite hpe-570f system. I'm trying to use the recovery partition. I can get to options and don't start the process, no problem. He has even reformat the hard drive. The problem arises when relocation of the factory software. Usually, it hangs at 1% until the screen loses the signal and that's it. I have disconnecged everything - including the usb keyboard and mouse on the last attempt - but the most I ever got was 35% before the screen loses the signal and nothing else happens. I thought that if I left him alone, he would install completely, but this last time I left for almost 4 days and still not install. Advice?

  Given that it was me that pisses off the coast, I purchased a retail version of windows 7 unlimited and tried. The same problem. Bought a new motherboard - and the case since the case of HP is designed to put another issue - and he moved very well. Have not had any problems of video card. It seems therefore that the cause of this whole ordeal was the motherboard.

• HP dv4-2045dx system recovery question

  Then... it does not work.

  Let me start with how I started to work on this computer. Obtained from a co worker. Only lights. Bought a replacement motherboard and the touchpad assembly she plastic it has installed after a nightmare of screws (someone got a hold of it in front of me and did a terrible job) and tried to run the hard drive recovery. Which failed. Bought the HP Web site restore disc and do a full format on the drive to the remapping of bad sectors. Including the test/recovery partitions. Got the discs, tried to make it work and has not yet. A further control of the hard drive using a live Fedora boot drive, drive seems to report good health and only 8 remapped sectors. Found one of the two sticks of RAM were bad. Has carried out tests of each stick in the same dwelling.

  Tried to reinstall again and he has NOT yet. Only thing I noticed, is that he seems strangely partition the drive in a way that does not use all of the 320 GB (400 MB, then 70 GB, 1 GB, or something like that).

  Here is the log that appears...

  I just hope that someone has a magic answer and that he has seen this problem before. Please enlighten me.

  So the idea of USB floppy failed. It wouldn't boot. After a quick search, there seems to be without public services online that will do.

  And if the product is after the 'End of Life' support, they will NOT change the serial number information encoded in the jury. Even if you are willing to throw money at HP to get there.

  HP cares about you as a consumer, it would seem, unlike Dell who has provided at least the utility to do this procedure according to a different forum post.

  Replaced mother board need to update the serial number (4216 views)

  Lessons learned...

  • Never buy anything from HP again because they want just that buy you a new one rather than challenge the former at a great price.
  • If you have a bad mother, get a generic Windows OEM drive somehow and do the installation in this way.
  • Get the drivers on their site and you don't have to bother with a recovery disk.

  If this post helped you, feel free to answer or give Kudos. At least I learned my lesson once and for all.

• System recovery question

  Is is possible to recover the original operating system on a HP Desktop 500-046 for the recovery partition if the c: drive has been formatted?

  If the Recovery Partition is still there, it should restore the operating system to "new factory".  Just put him in the office then LOOK HERE.  Scroll down to the 'again when Windows 8 will not start correctly.

  Turn on the computer and repeatedly the F11 key, on once every second, until the first screen appears, then follow these instructions:

• They guided me through a restore and system recovery, but doesn't not eventually give me the activation code for my windows when finished.

  I had a problem with my window 7 do not allow me to do live updates. Supprt Tech guided me through the steps necessary when requiring eventually get a difficult access remotely guided. The tech assured me that since I don't have the activation code for my Windows 7 ultimate that it provide me on. That I would be prompted to enter one after recovery and the restoration was complete.

  I wonder if I'll be able to get this code now?

  Also, I lost all text documents I had written and recorded? We did a flash drive recovery I've used but I am unable to locate my document.

  Thanks for any help.

  System Restore does not destroy documents, but a recovery will depend on what has been done.

  If the remote technician entered the product key, so he could be there.

• Satellite A300 - and Vista recovery Question

  I bought a Satellite A300 a few days previously, it automatically installed Vista without CD when I opened it.
  Is it joint to come with a vista CD/DVD or I need to burn a Toshiba Recovery disk?

  Pkozerski is right. Toshiba offers no support for recovery with new laptop models and this media must be created using the preinstalled recovery Toshiba creator tool.

  To do this I advise you to use high quality in DVD-R format media. My favorite is TDK or Verbatim.
  If you change anything in the future on your laptop, you'll be able to find your laptop using recovery image stored on the second partition.

  If you need instructions specific to how make it please let me know.

• Want to office: corrupt BCD and system recovery?

  Just yesterday I booted up my PC and my BCD has become corrupted. I tried to fix it, but even more to the point where we have a ruined recovery device. I was wondering if I were to use a recovery disc and reinstall what is necessary I loose my files and so what should so I follow my files but the fix for this issue.

  Hello

  There is a series of commands from the console that will fix the BCD, but since you have escaped to try to do it, then you can take this option off of the plate.

  This article can be useful.

• After system recovery question

  Recently, my HP Pavilion dv6000 Laptop does not close properly and as a result, I had to manually power it off.  From turning the power back on, a Windows boot file has been corrupted or missing and I had to leave a disc.  Since the recovery my computer has created a new user account for me and I can't recover my account originally.  I can go on the C drive, documents and setting and I find all my files, but on the control panel I only have that the new account.  To compound things, half of my programs don't work anymore.  Does not appear on add or remove software more and I get error messages when I try to run or reinstall programs.  I guess that's because it is technically already installed on the computer, but I can't do it.  Is it possible to recover my old user account or merge the old and the new to have access to my dos programs?  I guess that there must be a way when Windows starts, but I don't know enough about this software to know where to start.  Any help in this matter would be fantastic.

  Your user account - and the rest of the Windows installation - is severely damaged. Backup your data and restore your HP as long as the plant. This is usually done by pressing a key of function as F10 to start the computer. Look at the lower left corner of your screen such as starting the computer see which is the appropriate function key. Do a full destructive restore. After that restoration to the State of the plant is finished, install Vista Service Pack 2, all subsequent updates of Windows, etc. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• HP Pavilion a620n: System Recovery question

  I turned on the computer and got a black screen with an error that read the file \system32\hal.dll missing. Could not start. Did a system restore and now the computer starts but I can't load a lot of Web sites without the update to Windows XP SP3. Also got a new OdiAPI.dll error not found.  Is it possible to get the necessary system updates as Microsoft no longer supports Windows XP and my computer is not compatible with Windows 8?
