• Where could I find, live disc or other to restore the HARD drive recovery partition?

  Hello I have an A300 system 9 1M unit.

  I need to restore the HARD drive recovery partition, I had to change the hard disk drive, because he's dead.

  Is there a link where I could download the files? IMG to ISO or any other program that can create a new partition for recovery on a new drive?

  This computer is not under warranty, because it has more than 4 years.

  Thank you for all the support you could give me

  "" "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!

• Satellite L750 - access to the HARD drive recovery partition

  I need to reset the drive to factory settings, but can not access the recovery starts. I read the manuals

  I tried to run the recovery partition, I disable for laptop and lit keyboard '0' key and tried other keys F1 - F12, but system just beep with a blank black screen and then Toshiba displays menu and the Windows loading as usual.

  He has a record of factory "HDDRecovery" on the logical drive D: with all default recovery files

  Missing a very important information: preinstalled OS the original that you have with your laptop or you have installed a clean version of Windows?

  When you buy the new book it comes with factory settings. If long your laptop has this plant, you will be able to install the recovery image according to instructions with F8 at startup. If you change something that it will no longer work (install own os, partition structure).

  In this case you must use the created recovery disc but I assume you didn't create one although it is clearly described in the document s user manuals.

  Problem is that you can't do much. Either it works or not. If there is no way to install image recovery I'm afraid you need to order the new Mr. recovery disk you can do it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

• Remove the HARD drive recovery Partition

  Hello

  Does anyone know how to remove the recovery Partition HDD? I don't have any use for it as I repeated it CD, as well as images of partition stored on a network drive. I want that space to put a current image of my C: drive, rather than the initial installation.

  When I go to delete a partition or volume I get the errors. Resizing my computer laptop completely bombs with Paragon Disk Manager and I have to reinstall all partitions! Removing sub Vista it says volume is in use and delete may cause unexpected errors.

  If you really want to remove it, you might try Acronis Disk Director Suite. I never had any problems with it. A very good program.

  Furthermore, I think you mean that the Windows recovery environment and that s not a feature of Toshiba.
  Toshiba Recovery is only stored in a folder called HDDRecovery. It s not on a hidden partition.

  However, this good article is maybe interesting for you:

• Does not drive recovery partition creator & data - Satellite L300

  My niece asked me to re - install his Toshiba Satellite L300 laptop computer, because windows setup is a little buggy. She never had a recovery disc. Using Recovery Disk Creator Toshiba I tried to create a recovery disk.

  However, the program would not start. Check the directory of the program, it seems that the program is not just there. Later, I checked the laptop data partition.

  There was a card with HARD drive recovery. However, when using Windows Advanced Boot (F8 before Windows starts) there was no choice to fix the laptop. They have only choices were the standard options of windows (except the normal startup mode, etc.).

  In short, it seems impossible to re - install the laptop with the current information at your fingertips.
  What would be the next course of action? Is it possible to order a Toshiba restore CD?

  Another niece has the same specifications, it would be possible to use this notebook to create a recovery disk?

  I'm going to enjoy and look forward to your reactions.

  Hello

  It seems that something has changed on the HARD drive
  However, the fact is you ve no disk recovery and you can not use HARD drive recovery option.

  This means that you must order a new Toshiba recovery disc.

• Hard drive recovery partition

  Hello

  I have hp Pavilion dv6

  I got my pc with the recovery disc for the new internal hard drive.

  There are 4 primary partitions c

  System

  recovery

  HP tools

  to activate the other partitions, I converted the recovery disc to the logic.

  but now I want to store the recovery on the external drive and remove it from the pc... would it be possible to use the external hard drive recovery in the future.

  something more like I want to install 2 os so I need two drives elementary then that can be deleted from the SYSTEM or TOOLS HP

  Please help me with this task.

  There is no need to copy to external hard drive. Make your DVD or USB Flash Media - Player's recovery. Although you may have already broken the recovery partition function by changing logic.

• Satellite U400-22z - how to remove the HARD drive recovery partition

  Hallo,

  My satellite u400-22z came with a big "hdd recovery" folder on the drive hard - yes I know what it does.
  but the unbearably awful version of windows vista that came with the machine made me decide that, in the event of failure of the system, I'm still will not install this failure of the attempt of an operating system.
  So I do not have these data recovery.

  So those ~ 11 GB of junk sitting on my drive is bugging me, I can't delete the folder HDDRecovery, it is somehow protected against deletion.

  How can I work around that?

  Also, is it safe or can I make it safe, to use the small apparently hidden partition (that's recovery also?) I found, which is IIRC ~ 2 GB or larger, for own purposes, without destroying my current installation of windows?

  Thanks in advance,
  Steve

  Hello

  If you have a recovery disk and you do not want to store the folder in hard drive hard disk recovery, you can remove it.

  > I can't remove the folder HDDRecovery, it is somehow protected against deletion.

  Remove you it as you always do to remove all files on your system.

• Satellite Pro A300 - removed HARD drive recovery partition, but have backup ghost

  Hello

  I deleted the partition HDDrecovery by chance but I have all the files in the saved partition.

  Is it possible to recreate the partition?
  Or create a files recovery disk? -
  I have the program of recovery-disc-creator if possible continue to use?

  Concerning

  > Is it possible to recreate the partition?
  I know it s not possible to create it again without use of the Toshiba Recovery disk AFAIK this partitions contains also some brands that are necessary at the start of this partition.

  > Or create a files recovery disk? -
  I have the program of recovery-disc-creator if possible continue to use?
  Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool usually needs the HARD drive partition to create the recovery disk. But I doubt it will be functions if you've already deleted this partition.
  But nevertheless, you can see it.
  Create the partition (Vista disk management), copy these files on this partition and check if the Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool would find it.

  If not, I don t think you could create this partition of HARD drive

  In this case, you will need to purchase a Toshiba Recovery disk

  Hello

  It seems that the recovery media creator software is always installed, but the HARD drive recovery partition has been deleted from the HARD drive.

  This is why the recovery media creator can't access the HARD drive recovery partition.

  What to say. In this case, you will not be able to create the recovery media :(

• Satellite L650-11F - how to access HARD drive recovery?

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L650-11F.

  The other day I had a huge massive Goner virus (lol) and the computer is turned off. Whenever I tried to turn it on, it started to load Windows, and then restart. I tried to start Windows in safe mode but the same thing happened, just keep restarting. I tried to repair Windows (by pressing f8 and etc.) and without success, he kept restarting.

  So I tried to put it because it came from fabric and when I press 0 or F1 happears just 2 options: choose an opperating system to start or press tab to select a tool: Windows 7 tools: Windows memory diagnostic

  Can you help me please? Is there another way I can access the hidden hard drive recovery partition? Please :(

  Hi dakova,.

  Ist it Toshiba's original OS is still installed? I ask this question because it of necessary for the recovery of HARD drive. If you have installed another OS, you can access t HARD drive recovery option.
  In addition, recovery of HARD drive option is available if you press the F8 key before Windows starts. In the advanced boot menu, select fix my computer. The exact procedure is described here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

  Alternative, you can take the Toshiba recovery disc. This will also restore the original settings. :)

• Equium P300-16 t: I lose the option of using Recovery DVD HARD drive recovery?

  Hi sorry to post again but I need some help please.

  I posted on September 11, as well, but could someone please tell me if I lose the ability to restore my computer laptop back to factory default, when you press F8, if I do the recovery with the Toshiba Software DVD.

  As I said before I can get into safe mode but you cannot start my Vista.

  I can't use recovery discs as my laptop came with any disks at all?

  So the only option seems to be is it restore to the factory default.

  I am writing again, as I need some help please...

  Abbi

  Hi abbi

  I can help you
  You know that your recovery disk would fix the laptop back to factory settings.
  This means that the whole HARD disk should be formatted and everything should be reinstalled.
  The recovery disk also creates the HARD drive recovery partition that allows to recover the laptop from the HARD drive.

  You said you didn t get the recovery disks?
  Well buddy, I think you didn't read the manual you would find an info that the recovery disk must be created using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator software that is preinstalled on your laptop.

• 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:

  Restart the computer and hold down the Option key. That should bring up a window where you can choose the recovery disc.
