dv6240ea - no disc restoration, fried hard drive

where can I get for HP Pavilion dv6240ea recovery disk because HP sell more?

Hello

As long as you can still read the key of Activation 25 characters on your COA label, you can use the following procedure.

In the same way that it is possible to create a disc of the retail of Windows 7, use this to perform the installation, and then use the OEM windows 7 activation key from COA label, the same process is possible if your laptop comes with Vista.  A complete description (including links to downloads of Vista Image) of it on the following link.  You must use the Image which is the exact same version of Vista your laptop came with.

Other software and drivers you need can be found here.

    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?

  • I can restore a hard drive as a new

    is it possible to restored a disc hard as if it was out of the box (I read that you can install an os over a lifetime of hard drive)

    Hey Danny,

    What you read was not quite correct (and completely wrong if he says what you say it says).

    Assuming you have always the correct drivers and software product keys (if any), I can't imagine a situation where you cannot restore a HARD drive as if it was out of the box (except possibly need to use your product key personal rather than used by the manufacturer, when they made initial installation If you use an installation disk of geniune they provided {with a separate special disc drivers and additional software} rather than special discs supplied by the manufacturer to restore the conditions in factory or these disks you created a restore on the computer partition, or by using the restore partition directly where your unique product key is often but not always is usually not necessary).

    Considers Moreover, under the rules that you've read them, the computer could ever be updated to a new Service Pack, and even less from XP to Vista to W7 to W8 - or other (with restrictions based on how it's done, legally, regarding the upgrade paths and assuming that there is the appropriate drivers for the HARD disk under the new operating system).  It could not be changed from Windows to Linux.  Could not be partitioned to dual boot or startup sort even in different operating systems (which would make this feature a little stupid to have if the HARD drive could have only a single OS on it).

    And to go even further, if it really says what you wrote, you wouldn't even be able to re - install the OS at all since the resettlement would be more than one installation on the HARD drive so if your software system crashed or it became necessary to re - install the system, you will need to buy a new HARD drive to do and this is simply not the case.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I have restored my hard drive for time machine

    I have restored my hard drive of the machine after a malware infection, and now at startup, Finder opens the folder of DVD player. This does not seem to interfere with the normal operation of my computer, but I'm curious to know if anyone has had this happen. I use El Capitan 10.11.4 here's the finder window that opens at startup:

    You tried to delete the malware before you restore your system?  It is always better to do this first.  In addition, the backup that you used to restore your system before the malware infection has been took place?

    Edit: Go to system-> general Preferences.  Make sure that 'Close the windows when you exit an application' is checked.

    No, at least not by us.

    Open a hard drive for some reason any at all can be done in special
    laboratory as parameters. Something else will destroy the disk.

    There are companies trying to recover data from broken disks,
    and they are sometimes successful. And who knows, maybe they
    sometimes use methods such as what you describe.

    But if you plan to use such a company, know what they
    are all very expensive. It does not for most people.

    For the future, if you have files you want to be sure are not
    lost, make sure to have in place a backup procedure on a regular basis the

  • Want to m6-k088ca: m6-k088ca tea spilled want fried HARD drive. try to load the operating system on the new drive HARD get no found boot device

    Hi I want to m6 - k088ca it came with Windows 8, I've updated to 8.1 has a 64-bit operating system. I spilt tea on it and fried hard drive.

    Try to save money I bought a 500 GB hard drive instead of a 1 TB of HDD, it can with. Install it and then through the process to implement the recovery program and try to load the image of the system on my USB key. Recovery program did come and I tried to load the System Image to my USB disk hard nine, but nothing happened.

    I have only kept getting no device found startup message after the attempt to load of the System Image. Discover your forum, I discovered that I could not use the Image of the system on nothing less than what was originally on my computer a 1 TB hard drive. So, I went out and I tried to install Image system on it. I was unable to implement the recovery program I had before. I went to the boot options and he set up to boot from the key USB didn't keep get no boot device found message. After trying several different ways to do it, I made a test drive and kept getting unavailable message. I've reset the hard drive wiped clean all connections and was still unable to do a hard drive test, so I assumed that there was something wrong with the hard drive has returned to where I got it from. Then went to another bank and picked up another.

    First thing I did was a fast hard drive test and it happened.

    I tried to install e system on nw HDD image with no luck. I have never been able to implement the program of recovery since that first time. With the help of your forum, that I have que j' ai tente tried to load my picture of the system a couple of different ways but get no found boot device message.

    Have I may have something to corrupt the system on my USB key Image trying to download it on a smaller hard disk?

    I went to the view of Windows and try to download Windows 8 on an another USB and then tried to download it and continue to spread the message no boot device found. I tried this download on my g6 HP Pavilion with Windows 7 64 bit operating system. This is why it did not work because I use a computer with Windows 7 and not Windows 8?

    Thanks Bill

  • System Restore fills hard drive

    I used Windows XP Home Edition for years, with no problems.  However, in recent weeks, I noticed my hard drive filling up at a rate of almost 1 G new data per day.  I didn't add all the new programs, so I suspected a Virus or a Trojan.  I use Avast Anti-virus and keep SpyBot and SpywareBlaster running and updated.  I ran full scans with these programs and found no problem.  I even downloaded a copy of AVG anti-virus and done a scan with it problems... No..  Then, I came across a program called 'TreeSize' who did a real good job to tell me what's really on the hard drive.  BIINGO!  It seems that my system restore file increases by nearly 1 G per day.  I had about 2 months, control in the system restore points, so I changed the settings about 25 g and lost most of my restore points... AND, my hard disk capacity has increased almost 20 g.

    Windows has changed something in the month last about restoring the operating system?  I've never seen this phenomenon until just last month.  Now that I know what is eating my hard disk space, I can recover easily, but I think something has changed recently to cause this.  The ONLY thing I added to my files in the month were updates of Windows.

    Even after many years, I have only about 20 G on my hard drive, so it was unusual when I started to see the volume of data up to 40 G.  This just started about 3 or 4 weeks... and I did not install new programs.

    Now that I put the restore settings to 25G, I saw no repetition of this 'growth' in the past 2 or 3 days... so time will tell if this fixed my "whim".

    As I said, you must set SR to 1 GB... No 25 GB.

    I guess the sentence I have in bold above means that you have a separate partition for your data.  You don't need restore the system monitor this partition (disc) at all.  Retrieves a few pieces of Bert K site linked in my previous post (emphasis added):

    • System Restore monitors changes to the system and saves the State of the system as a restore point.
    • System Restore does not restore user data or documents, so it will not cause users to lose their files, email, browsing history or Favorites.
    • System Restore monitors and restores a set of file system and application, the States of these files before the change of the archiving system. System Restore also records a snapshot of the registry (Note: some current registry values will persist) and some dynamic system files.
    • Files that are monitored or excluded from the monitoring are specified in the file % windir%\system32\restore\Filelist.xml.
    • To restore a system, System Restore undoes file changes made to the files monitored, taking over the State of the file at a time of the restore point selected. It replaces the current registry with one registered for the selected restore point.

    If indeed you watched a "data disc" and it was the system restore on this drive that increased, it seems that if one of the applications, which stores the data on this disk does not respect the following recommendations:

    • To make sure that your application has the behavior desired after a restore, follow these steps:

      • Be sure to use the extensions compatible with those used in the Filelist.xml file binary application key to protect. For more information, see Monitoring of file Extensions.
      • Do not use controlled types of extensions for files modified by the user. For example, if you name the file of personal data of a user using the .ini extension, the user may lose work because of a system restore.
  • Can I restore my hard drive of a copy of disk image?

    I'm trying to restore a MacBook (Yosemite) 2008 following an irreparable error in the car and I have a full disk image that I took using utility disk in recovery mode until I wiped it off. (Apparently, yes Carbon Copy Cloner did a better job, but I didn't have that.) Is there a way to use it to recover from, or can I only use it to manually copy files on?

    (I also have a Time Machine backup, or at least I think I do, but I am currently faced with a challenge of system administrator password , so I was wondering if there is an easier alternative since the Macintosh HD.dmg is right there on my external hard drive).

    If you have TM I would use apples as described here:

  • Satellite A300-23F: would reocvery disc format my HARD drive?

    I lost my windows recovery disk and ordered the recovery disc for my toshiba SATELLITE A300-23F that has windows vista.
    For the moment, I have windows xp trial intalled on my laptop.
    If I install windows vista from the recovery disk, it will erase all the data already on my hard drive, including partitions, or it will automatically move into diving C:

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, the recovery disk would firstly format the whole HARD drive.
    This means that all partition will be deleted, and that means you lose everything that was stored on the HARD drive.

    Therefore, you must back up important data before you begin the recovery procedure.

  • Restore a hard drive backup time machine (how?)

    I've been Googling this and if you don't find a clear answer.  If you can point me in the right direction please do.

    I have a Mac Pro, and the system drive (a 850 Pro SSD Samsung I installed it a year ago) has failed.  At this point, I can't clone it, and the only recent backup I have is the Time Machine backup.  I have an old backup to clone (if all goes well bootable).

    What is the best way to install a new HD and restore from Time Machine backup?  All of the guides I can find mention using recovery recovery partition or on the internet, or which are options in this case.

    A proposal, it is something like:

    (a) in a way to format the new disk (starting from the bootable clone if all goes well?)

    (b) restart into recovery mode?  Will be (a) install the recovery on the new disk partition?

    I have also 4 readers installed in the Mac (now dead), I don't know if that complicates.  (System, data, and a clone of each.  The clone system is very up to date.)

    (I normally also note make backups with SuperDuper! but for a reason that has not been running on this hard drive for months.)  "And it's too late now).

    Thank you.

    (I'm on the latest version 10.10, not what it says in the signature.  The clone may be some 10,10 versions behind.)

    In particular, the directions of Apple are meaningless:

    OS X Yosemite: restore your entire system

    It is said in short:

    1. Replace the HD.  (Done, now there a disk not formatted instead of a system drive.)
    2. Make sure your Time Machine backup disk is connected and turned on... (of course, ok)
    3. Choose the Apple menu > restart.  (How do I?  There is no OS installed.)

    Etc., but if I followed these instructions I get no further than 2.  With the clone bootable in the computer, there just boots that and will not go into recovery mode (looks like the clone has no recovery partition).  So I'm stuck.

    Suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

  • ITunes - problems with burning discs on external hard drive

    Hello

    I get error messages when I try to burn CDs on iTunes - corrects not allowed to perform. My iTunes media storage is related to an external hard drive - without preferences iTunes n. I changed permissions Read rights and write on iTunes via the Finder as suggested by a number of help pages - her has not resolved the problem. It is interesting when I change storage media iTunes to the default location on the hard drive - I can then burn discs. But as I hear it all accesed by iTunes data stored on external disk - this isn't a solution. Can anyone help?

    How externally is formatted? the last time that I answered this problem 2 days ago the person was externally formatted in NTFS and it must be Mac.
