Convert recovery Recovery DVD or USB HARD drive bootable disk

Maybe someone can help me.

* System: *.
Toshiba Satellite L-300-1AY
Model #: PSLB8E
SN: Y8099024Q
Currently using Win - Vista Home Premium

I had to replace my HARD drive due to the failure; new drive works OK. I restored my SW to an old backup made by Acronis using a USB to start Acronis recovery and DRANK files on my external USB HDD.
I have restored the drives C and D as well as WinRE.
I want to reset the system to factory State and start all over again!

Unfortunately, I can not do a factory using F8 restore, because this option is now not available to me more. F8 suggests restore from optical discs

So I charge my DVD recovery disc I made a long time ago. to my surprise, the ODD does not read the disc. I can't read any CD or DVD, and I assume that my ODD is dead. I checked the DVD media on another computer: they are OK.

On another system, I created a rescue with Parted Magic CD. My STRANGE drive could read this CD although very slowly: surprise!

* My QUESTION *.
* I would like to create a bootable USB drive where I want to do a factory restore without using my odd.*

I have the Toshiba Recovery DVD discs, I have a copy of the SW recovery, which normally resides on the D drive, I have a copy of Windows re.

Already, I have created a bootable USB key that I copied the contents of the Recovery DVD. Start on the key works fine but it gets stuck fast because it is waiting for drive (STRANGE) E to prepare. (Eventually!) seems obvious that these disc is intended to be used on a WEIRD drive.

Is it possible I want to do?
Thanks for any help or suggestion (other than the purchase of a new ODD!)

  • Re: Partition Recovery DVD or external hard drive

    Hi all

    I need to create a recovery disk, but I only have one chance to do it.

    The instructions indicate that I should do that on DVDs or USB key.

    The question is: I wonder if I can do that on an external hard drive AND I can do it on a partition rather than use the whole 500 gb external HD is it possible? I can't spoil because as I said I have only one chance.

    Thank you

    Follow the instructions of the DVD using DVD + R media.

  • Recovery on a separate hard drive?

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion Touchsmart 15 b146ef and I need to replace my hard drive. I know I have to reinstall the operating system (Windows 8) but I see I have two hard drive in the devices folder and the C: and D: drives. So I wonder if I need to request a new image of the HP operating system or if my hard drive D: is still available after the replacement and allow me to reinstall the operating system by myself. In other words, are both of these separate hard drives or it is the only kind of a VHD?

    Thank you

    C and D are two partitions on a hard drive. When you remove the hard drive both partitions move with him. You have the software to create a recovery DVD or USB flash media. You create, replace the hard drive, start with recovery media.

  • With the help of product recovery CD when the hard drive replaced

    Hi all

    It seems that my hard drive is defective, so I bought a replacement, installed in the laptop OK and tried to use the Toshiba product recovery disc. The laptop started with the disc OK and recovery of product starting screen appeared and I started the process. The process starts, but then crashes and no matter how much time wait nothing further happens.

    I put the defective hard drive, back to and started on the recovery disk and it started and the process started OK.

    The recovery disc can not be used on a replacement hard drive? Surely, this is possible, as hard drives do fail and must be replaced.

    Can someone tell me how to fix it please?

    Thanks in advance!

    In General, you can use recovery image after replacing HARD drive. I did the same thing on my machine.
    It was: is the new HARD drive recognized properly? After Exchange of HDD enter BIOS and check this.
    Before you begin the recovery image installation if please try to set the BIOS to the default settings and try reinstalling the recovery image.

  • How to copy the recovery on the new HARD drive partition, HARD drive failed?

    Hallo,

    I have a Compaq Mini netbook with Windows 7 Starter.

    The HARD drive has failed and it is not repairable. However, it seems that the recovery partition is OK.

    I want to buy a new HARD drive, install the driver on the netbook, and then use the tools/recovery partition to install windows 7 on a new PC.

    So, the question is simple: how to copy the recovery for the new HARD drive partition?

    Hello s91066.

    If your hard drive of your laptop doesn't have? If this is the case, what do you mean by the "recovery partition is ok? I doubt that this laptop has two hard disks, so if you are able to see this partition of your hard drive may still work.

    You will need a set of recovery disks to restore the partitions on the new drive. If you can start Windows, which you can probably not with a dead hard drive, you can follow these steps if you can get into Windows.

    If you are unable to boot into Windows, you need a set of disks. You can order it directly from HP. The number of the United States / Canada is 1-800-474-6836. If you are in another domain, you must visit HP's Support around the world to find contact information for your region.

    I hope that is useful; have a great weekend!

  • With the help of recovery on the new hard drive disks

    Hello

    I have an old t160.uk of Pavilion.  The hard disk starts to sound a bit grumpy.  I have a spare I want to replace it with.  Can I create recovery discs using the partition, and then replace the hard drive and reinstall windows xp on the new drive? or the recovery disks only works on the original hard drive?

    See you soon,.

    Hirroshi wrote: what determines if the new hard drive will be compatible with the recovery disk?  Could I connect the new hard drive in another Bay and try to use the recovery disk, before removing my old hard drive?

    Hello Hirroshi, it seems that drives hard very little HP only work in an HP computer, or so I said. I think it has to do with some code that HP puts in the Master Boot Record, but that's just a guess. I read on the Forum that this is the case.

    I suggest that you delete the partition on the replacement hard drive, and then create a new partition and format the hard drive. You should be able to use the recovery disk, if they are not damaged and that you have a valid burn.

    You can try to install the replacement hard drive in the system you propose, and it can work very well. It's certainly worth a try.

    Here is a link that shows how to perform a recovery facility when a hard drive is replaced.

  • How can I copy video to a DVD on my hard drive in Windows XP?

    Original title: not a wiz here pc... How can I copy video to a DVD on my hard drive... I have windows XP?
    need help please... thank you in advance.

    If the DVD is "not" a commercial copy protected DVD...
    the following steps may be worth a try:

    When you insert the DVD in your DVD player... close
    all the windows that can open and then go to... Start /.
    Computer... right click the icon for the DVD player
    is located in, and then select Explore or open to view the
    Directory of the DVD.

    The files you need from the DVD are the. VOB files.
    You will find them in the VIDEO_TS folder. Copy them
    in a folder on your hard drive. Or you can copy the
    full VIDEO_TS folder.

    First... just try to rename one of the. VOB files to
    . MPG or. AVI and see if it will matter in Movie Maker.
    If import works... drag the file to the timeline and
    Economy/publication it to .wmv or .avi format. Then...
    Re - import new video from .wmv to for editing.
    (Note: in Windows 7 you may be able to import the)
    VOB files in Movie Maker just as they are)

    (FWIW... you can probably play the files renamed
    in Windows Media Player to be sure that VOB
    file to edit)

    If you are unable to import the files they need to be converted
    another .wmv format would be a good choice.

    There are many programs that can do conversions...
    The following freeware is an example...:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory
    (the 'direct link' is faster)
    (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip<>
    (FWIW... installation..., you can uncheck
    ('all' boxes on the last screen)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag FFSetup260.exe out of the folder
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    Next, after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

    Select "all to WMV" / OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

    Good luck...

  • Can I import images of DVD on my HARD drive through Bridge (I have Win 7

    Hello

    I use Win 7 (and also to have bridge on Mac OS X). I would like to import images of DVD on my HDD via Adobe Bridge. But I can't find the option to import DVDs in bridge (whether in Windows 7 or Mac). My DVD player on my Win machine is external, so that I have the regular internal DVD on my Macbook Pro drive. I'm trying to import pictures from DVD to HDD via Bridge. Pass the first round selection/reject by the bridge and then bring them to LR for more changes.

    I copy them now the DVD drive in a USB key. And then using the dialog box import Bridge (when I plug the USB again) copy on my HARD drive. I'm doing this because I need to batch rename my files, add metadata and keywords on import. These additions will not allow the function of simple copy/move and so I have to resort to this workaround from USB DVD on the HARD drive (across bridge). If I can import directly from DVD via Bridge, it will save me some time.

    Looking forward help pls.

    THX,

    Chinmoy

    I feel a bit silly now. For 2 days, I struggled and then posted my Q.

    After posting the Q, I thought about it in about 15 minutes.

    Insert the DVD.

    BR open

    Navigate to DVD

    Select all images

    Right-click - Batch Rename

    Choose the Destination path and the new file name.

    And go!

    If you have had the same problem, I did, hope this helps.
