Create recovery media requests double layer DVD

Good evening everyone.

I just took delivery of my 5 new books for new employees of my company.

3 of these notebooks are HP Probook 450 G2 (REF: J4R69EA)

(These are the models with 128 GB SSD drives)

The other two are Lenovo E540 with similar specs.

So let's start, create recovery media. To ensure that is done before I give them to end users in question.

While trying to create the windows disk, the program "HP Recovery Disc Creator" requires the double layer DVD: "Please insert a DVD double layer to move forward."

The DVD in question that I use are discs of "Sony DVD + R 120 min / 4.7 GB" that in the past have always worked. (and now work for Lenovo laptops)

Searching this forum told me to:

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03481733

Unfortunately, this is not the same interface I. I choose only a drive to create a backup to

(in this case, it is drive F:\ internal drive)

I also tried an external DVD burner with the same results.

I have not tried a USB, but this isn't what I want, and since you can create a backup set.

It would be not that big of a problem if there was a real windows 7 key printed on the laptop.

If I had a key, I would just reinstall the machine immediately with an image clean windows 7 so I don't have to clean up all of the HP software.

but unfortunately this is not the case. So I need a Windows 7 recovery disk must be created.

Any suggestions apart from the purchase of DVD DL?

Thank you for your time

Hey @SCamm,

To get your question more exposure I suggest you post in the trade forums since it is a commercial product. You can do it at Business Forum.

Record double layer DVD-R and DVD + R discs can store much more data. DVD + R DL, also called DVD + R9 are what is needed to create the media recovery on this laptop.  Sorry to say.

Thank you.

  • HP 15 Notebook - r063tu model: what quality of Flash drive required for creating recovery media for laptop 15 HP (r063tu)?

    I want to create a recovery media for my laptop HP 15 (model r063tu) on a Flash instead of DVD drive (had a bad experience with the DVD in the past). Should I buy a 16 GB or 32 GB of capacity 3.0 USB drive. Because it will only be to create recovery media, obviously I won't be able to use it for other purposes, so want to buy everything as this is sufficient (and save on costs!). Thank you.

    Hello

    32 GB is necessary because the recovery partition is almost always about 20 GB or more.

  • Cannot create recovery media

    Attempting to create a recovery media for my new laptop Toshiba L-500; I get the following error message:
    {Cannot read the following file.

    This has happened while creating recovery disc 1 and disc 3... with the same error message. considering that the Recovery Disk 2 was created without any problem.
    I tried burning the files again for discs 1 and 3, which could once again, but 2 disk has been created again successful without any problem.

    Please indicate the possible solution.

    Try to use TDK or Verbatim DVD-R. I used these empty discs to create recovery discs on several different Toshiba laptops and every time everything was fine.

    It seems crazy, but you may have problems using some some discs.

  • Need help with the recovery partition/create recovery media

    HI - first thing I did when I got my thinkpad is a clean install of w7, but then I thought about it and restored the recovery partition, conviniently located at the end of the training, in order to create a backup dvd factory. Thing is, when I click the autorun (lenovoqdrive.exe) and select 'create recovery media', I get an error stating that "program files (x 86) \lenovo\factory recovery\recovburncd.exe" is missing... obviously since the operating system partition was crushed.

    I tried RnR and looked on the software + drivers page and nothing happens as "... \lenovo\factory recovery\" when it is installed. So, where can I download the program that creates the recovery discs?

    (I know possible to restore the operating system of the *.wim file but I want to leave that as a last resort).

    Okay here's what I did to who mightve had the same question: as mentioned earlier, I have restored the partition Q with (your favorite free partition recovery tool), then booted from a usb winpe (with imagex) generated from victory aik (free).

    first I deleted (from winpe boot usb) windoze partition with diskpart and recreated the 2 partitions S & C (and Q is on the left) by hand according to 'recovery.ini' found on q. then I restored S and C 'sdrivebackup.wim' and 'cdrivebackup.wim', respectively, using imagex.exe, which is actually two one liners.

    Finally, I tried the bcd to fixation by hand according to "bcdinfo.txt", also found on Q, but that did not really work... so I just jumped into a bootable win7 USB and he rewrote the bcd by itself (I assume). the last step has been fixing the mbr by using /fixmbr and /fixboot bootrec.exe.

    ATM I started just and afaict it behaves exactly like the first start-up of the plant. see you soon

  • creating recovery media after upgrade to 8.1 window

    Hello friends. I have a lot of confusion. I bought a laptop on December 2012 with window 8 preinstalled and created the recovery media about 6 or 7 months later. And now, I upgraded my system to window the window store 8.1. And now again I would create a recovery media for windows 8.1. So my question is if I create recovery media on a flash drive usb and if in the future I want to reset my pc or reinstall my system, I'll make window 8 or 8.1 on my system. I'm not a computer expert. If anyone can help me please. Thank you.

    Hello:

    You will get Windows 8.

    If you want to do a recovery W8.1 image you can do the following...

    You can create a system image in W8.1 and save it on a portable hard drive or set of DVD as you might in W7.

    Instead of making a bootable cd as in W7, you need a boot flash drive boot. You can use a flash drive to very small capacity (256 MB) for the startup recovery W8 flash player.

    Check out these links for more information.

    Create the image of the W8.1 system:

    http://www.hanselman.com/blog/CreateACompleteSystemImageBackupWithWindows81AndFileHistory.aspx

    Create bootable W8.1 flash player to access the system image.  Don't forget, you can use this drive, you can boot from it and access the system image you created on DVD or a portable USB hard drive.

  • Problem during construction on a double layer dvd

    Hello! I made a dvd of my vacation with yet, but it was so big (6.62Go) I bought a double layer dvd to build. I have a video set as first game and 3 menus that are auto-activées when we choose a different button (as in the tutorial but linda.com I put a video on the background instead of an image).

    When I start to build, the writing is good but to roughly a little more than one-quarter, still ejects the disc. I tried to read the dvd on my computer and a dvd, but he could not read. Please help me as soon as possible. I worked on this project for several days and I am very proud of the result. I want to really over!

    I use the most recent updated even on a 64-bit windows computer 7.

    I did everything and it did not work

    I'll take that as a 'no' to my question.  So I would simplify to see if you can sort out what works and what is not. Rather than mess with what you have, I create a new project, add a menu, use no autoactivate and no introductory video and import one of your videos as a timeline and just a link.

    Does it work?

    I would try each of the main items that John described too.

  • Double layer DVD burning does not

    The double-layer DVD burning does not work on my XPS420 w/vista.  The drive reads everything good and burns only 4.7 GB very well.  When you try to burn to a disc double layer blank he Burns half of the project (probably a layer), and then gives me an error message.  This happened with two different software.  Once with Roxio 10.1 included with the system and once with DVD Shrink.  I use an ISO image file appropriate.  My Player recognizes a disc blank double layer with 8 GB of free space.  During the burning process is when all else fails.  I downloaded the update of the firmware as well.  My thought is that it may be a media problem.  I virgins, disc double layer 8.5 GB DVD + R DL.  It's a brand off I've not heard of, but that was all that was available at the store.  It is a toshiba player, not sure of the model number.  16xRW +-.  Note: the front of the drive said no DL.  If all goes well they installed the correct drive.

    any thoughts?

    Thank you.

    Official response with the support of HP on twitter:

    Try to use the tool of media recovery. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-usb-recovery-drive. The USB has a boot device.

    .. who has worked on the same USB stick 32 GB .  BUT it is not the same as in the HP Recovery Manager.

    Don't bother more. I accept the foregoing as a solution.

    Good luck with users who have this laptop. Also issues with the network adapter to which I am trying to fix at the moment.

  • Impossible to find in the Menu to create recovery media ThinkVantage programs

    Hi all:

    I'm doing a product recovery disc for my Type 8380 - 85U Thinkcentre. desktop computer.  The help file says to go to Start --> all programs --> ThinkVantage --> to create recovery media to do this.

    I did, but there is no option in the menu of ThinkVantage to create recovery media.

    I need to know what the real app is only the tip of the shortcut to.

    I called the Tech Support line and told to search for and download document Outphasing-67520.  I have done this and downloaded the Lenovo systems Toolbox which told me to provide me with the utility to create the recovery media.  I installed the Toolbox systems and create product recovery disc was not one of the functions that this app provides.

    Can anyone tell me the name of the file and if possible the location of the executable file that indicates the shortcut in the menu create recovery media.

    Thanks in advance for any help getting this done product recovery disc.

    Best regards

    Michael, W1RC

    Hi Netnubar:

    You WROTE:... the executable file is "RRMedia.exe".

    Thank you. You are right.  My problem is solved.

    Wonder why two of the IBM support people didn't know that.

  • Problem reading disc double layer, DVD player

    Windows DVD Maker burned fine on my drive of Verbatim DVD + R double layer.  But he won't play in any dvd player, we have.  Also tried to play in our portable dvd player and the PS3 with no luck.  What Miss me?  The 4.7 GB DVD works fine at our DVD players.  Thank you

    Thanks for your reply KSib.  I had the dvd recorded in the standard wmv file that windows saves in, which is very good.  But if you try to go to where you saved it on your computer and try to write on a double layer dvd, it is write it, but don't allow you to watch on your computer or another computer... not on a dvd player.  The only way to be able to play the DVD double layer on a dvd using Windows player is to burn the Windows DVD authoring application DVD (not the location to save to your hard drive).  It takes forever to burn, of course... but so well worth it in the end when he actually plays.

    Yay for me!

  • Can my laptop burn double layer DVD + R discs?

    Hey, I have a laptop of HP G60-213EM

    And I know that I can burn a DVD + R etc but can I burn double layer DVD + R discs? On my PC, I usually use Verbatim discs double layer. And really want a quick answer if anyone knows if my laptop will burn Verbatim dual layer DVD + discs R. thanks

    Easy trolling for the congratulations but not so easy to give the right info. Yes, you have the DVD Multi burner double layer, so you can burn discs double layer. You must also good burning software. Two layers are difficult to do and you get a lot of roller coaster. The jump from Layer 1 to layer 2 to the burning often causes a problem. The best way to do it is to make a .iso to first and then burn.

  • double layer dvd win 7 x 64 does not burn

    I can't burn a double layer DVD (Memorex) in Win 7 x 64. Used to be able to but not now. Search many forums, no help. DVD burners have inclluded HL, HP 1260 t and Asus BW-12B1ST. All software and drivers up-to-date, I think. Even tried different DVD, no luck. Single layer all mfg all right, just not burn DL. Frustrated.

    If you can, lower the burning speed.  Double layer DVD are much more sensitive and downright temperamental than 4.7 standard.  And as you know, they are 5 or 6 times more expensive, too!

    Good luck.
