copy of a recovery disk

Hello

I just created a recovery for my compaq presario cq40 disc.  I burned on a DVD + R DL RW verbatim.  Recovery manager allow me to create another disc of recovery and said recovery disk that only one per cell is allowed.

is it possible to copy this disc? just to double back the reasons. It will work just the same as the original disk, I created with the Recovery Manager?

In my view, that it won't let you create another one due to the violation of the copy right or something of this nature.

I think you can copy them using image burning.

http://download.CNET.com/ImgBurn/3000-2646_4-10847481.html

I just tried this program and it allowed me to copy my HP factory recovery disks, so there is a good chance that it will work for you.

Use the "create disc image files", it creates ISO files that you store on your disk hard that you can then burn to a DVD and create a copy of your recovery disks. I think that you may need to use double layer here.

You say burn Image where to put ISO files. I would like to create a new folder on the "C" drive and put them in there.

As for your other question, it should be an exact copy that will work. You can always try again later and stop at the place where it warns you that you are about to format your hard drive and it's the last chance to stop the recovery process.

See also this post here where Cheryl has left some very useful links about startup creating backup discs.

A second from the top. I wouldn't bother even burn a second series. I just have a few new using the Cheryls links. That way if you don't have a catastrophic failure, it will put the hard drive back as you want it and not image of original HP.

Please give a KUDOS to Cheryl and myself, if you found this post useful.  Thank you

I ran an experience and actually tried this and it works fine. When you use Image burn make sure you check the box to 'check' your DVD. I think it may already be checked by default however.

I had a spare hard drive to try it and I only allowed to go as far as the warning, then I cancelled the recovery process. Had let it go all the way I'm sure it would have worked.

  • Satellite A100-784 - how can I make another copy of my recovery disc DVD

    Hi all

    I have the Satellite A100-784, which comes with Vista Home...
    How could I make another copy of the DVD from my recovery disc?

    Also, I don't have the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator... is downloadable?

    Hello

    You n t have the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator, because this Toshiba Software is preinstalled on laptops equipped with HARD drive recovery option.
    I presume that you have received a Toshiba Recovery disk this laptop doesn t allow HARD drive recovery.
    Therefore, you cannot create a new DVD of recovery using the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator.

    What you could do is to copy the supplied recovery disk.

  • Satellite A210 - 158 PSAFGE recovery disk

    I bought my laptop a year ago. In the first week, I want to make a backup copy of my recovery disk.
    But I could not because he gave me a read error.
    I went back to the shop where I bought explaining recovery disk is not functional.
    They changed my drive, but with this I have the same problem.

    I accidentally deleted my computer recovery software and now I'm not able to create a disc with Recovery Disc Creator.

    My question is:
    If someone has purchased the same model in Spain can he make me a picture of the copy and upload it to rapidshare?
    I don't want to buy another copy of [https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/] only because toshiba provided my a good drive.

  • Yoga 2 Pro - how to get Windows 8.1 recovery disks

    Hi all.

    I just bought a Yoga 2 Pro and immediately wiped the drive and installed Debian on it (which works very well.)

    While I can't imagine going back me to Windows, it would be useful to have the recovery of Windows 8.1 (or USB) disks available, just in case. (Money-back guarantee, sell to someone, etc.)

    Unfortunately, during the installation of Debian, the recovery partition has been deleted, so I can't create the recovery/USB disks myself. How can I get a copy of the recovery disks?

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    For support of factory image recovery, you will need to contact the Service (info below). There may be a fee for the media.

    Kind regards.

    HP is quite liberal with you not sourcing recovery media from other sites, I don't think it's a question.

    If you don't feel comfortable with another source, order recovery disks form HP

  • Restore fails with HP recovery disk. Copy of ordinary details of WIn8 will install OK?

    I have weeks of pain, try to restore a HP Envy m6 that failed a few days outside its warranty.

    I tried to reinstall the original recovery partition and recovery disks burned of the original score of the recovery.

    These two failed with error.  Detect an error in the PININST_BBV

    Diagnostic checks suggest that the hard drive may be faulty, so I have replaced and bought a new set of recovery discs HP who believed HP would solve the problem. However, I get the same error. Detect an error in the PININST_BBV

    Installation in all cases seems to be just fine.

    I strongly suspect the recovery process HP is defective but HP you want to load a 34 books just to talk to someone for a few minutes.

    Anyone know if I can install a regular copy of windows 8 purchased in a retail store instead?

    The product key appears to be buried in the BIOS for the moment and I don't know if that will affect activation if I try to install a non - OEM version

    The answers on the help on the original problem would be greatly appreciated.

    With Windows 8, the product key is embedded in the BIOS and is not visible until you install the operating system. When you use an OEM Windows 8 DVD the BIOS automatically fills in the Code of the key.  You can try to do your own installation of Win 8 media using this ISO download:

    I have a HP 15 Notebook PC with no dvd player recently sent me the CD of HP system recovery. I don't have an external dvd drive. What I have is a portable Toshiba Satelight with Windows 7 and a good dvd player. I also have an external hard drive to 500 GB.

Then attach the external hard drive to my HP 15 laptop by usb port and install Hp recovery disks from the external hard drive. Is someone can you please tell me if HRT is possble. Thank you very much.

    Have seen others try this and fail miserably. I also saw a few attempt to copy on USB stick with the same end result.
