EliteOne 800: HP_RECOVERY and HP_TOOLS missing partition after re-install-why only on one system?

Short:

After you have reinstalled Windows Pro 8.1 with the original OS from HP on two EliteOne 800 DVD, I got scores HP_RECOVERY and HP_TOOLS on a PC, but not on the second.

Long:

So I got two new 800 EliteOne out of the box, as well with blue screen (iastorA.sys). Sad quality question, but nevertheless, I got the 8.1 original DVD Pro with systems. So I reinstalled completely the two systems. Two BIOSES have the same exact parameters, the two systems are actually identical.

First installed very well system. The DVD of 8.1 drivers to install all the drivers, including Intel RST and SSD caching.

I see drive d (HP_RECOVERY) and drive E: (HP_TOOLS). At the time of startup, F11 works. In Windows, diskmanager shows all partitions.

Now to the second system. Installation went smoothly as well, BUT... I don't see the additional partitions. So F11 will obviously not work.

What happens here?

I also recognized that on the second system, the drivers are not installed properly. Installing the software on the drivers disk HP tells me that everything is installed and I need to reboot, but no. On the next check, drivers were not installed.

What else can I check?

DH

After that I got a 3rd system with exactly the same issues, I believe that this is a generic problem with this type of system.

I formatted all drives outside the system. I used the Bootcd (i.e. UBCD) to do the same while the disc was still in the system.  Finally, I was able to successfully install the 3rd system. But I have in vain on the 2nd.

In any case, I put this in the list of the mysteries. I haven't the time more to study.

Overall, I am deeply disappointed with these HP systems.

  • All Documents and the missing photos after a system restore, what happened, and how can I recover my files?

    Hello
    All of my documents and photos are missing after a system restore. Here's the story. A virus called "Windows Recovery" popped up earlier and I did a system restore to get rid of him. To restart the computer, all my files and photos were missing. I used the system restore in the past in similar situations and have never had any problems. I opened MS Office, and I found some documents in the recent documents list. They open up fine and I saved them, but is only some of the documents. I can find the files in my documents when I do a search on them, but they are empty, when I open them. I also find some pictures and documents when I do a search for them by name, but I remember only a few file names, so I can't retrieve many files this way.

    HP Elitebook 8540w, model WH137AW #ABA - this laptop and was previously running a trial version of windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I wanted to install windows 7 ultimate 64-bit.

  • Noise levels dropped and I lost clarity after updates installed recently

    latest updates of XP have cause the sound levels on my audio to drop and lack of power

    I play a lot of theatre organ music, and after one of the massive mocrosoft updates, the lack of power and clarity.  It's loose!  Before I couls break blisters if I chose to do this now my 240w surround sounds no better than a good pair of desktop speakers!  If everything again and reinstall XP, I am disable automatic updates permanently!  He was playing beautifully until he forced 80 updates on me.  The sound was great before that!  I was not even allowed to choose what updates I tried, as an icon appears on the stop button, telling me he was going to install these updates when I shut down the computer.

    My motherboard is a Gigabyte MA790X-UD4P
    Processor is an AMD 1090 t BE
    Audio is onboard Realtek ALC889A with latest drivers installed
    Operating system is Windows XP - Pro 2002, upgraded to SP3

    I also tried a dedicated high-end Creative Labs sound card, and the problem is still there!  Please do not recommend I have upgrade to Win7, because I already bought it, and as far as I am concerned, it stinks!  Bling, for the little ones!  a lot of my software will not work on it, and I am not spending thousands of dollars to replace that I just want what I have and everything to work properly.

    Sincerely,
    Russ

    Whoa, there!

    Loser sound after a big update happens, unfortunately. My recommendation to you is to let the MS to update your PC then cracks at least safe and warts have disappeared. Before turning off automatic updates if you feel you must.

    Afterwards , re - install your audio drivers.

    You say you tried a card Creative - is still in the PC? With its drivers? Bad move.

    (BTW, Creative are NOT the cards pro audio, whatever they say.) The EMU is the name of their pro cards division. That being said, they write just drivers for their playing cards and "hifi", which are not expensive. )

    I think you're the best solution is to stick with the Creative (its better than Realtek) card. Here's what I'd do:

    (1) download the giving drivers and software for your Creative device if you don't already have them.

    (2) uninstall all the drivers/software related to an audio device (Realtek, Creative, Sound Blaster etc.) via Device Manager and the software part of XP.

    (3) re-boot,

    (4) when you hear a beep from your PC, go into the BIOS (you need to read the manual that came to know which key to press). Most of the time repetedly pressing DELETE will get you in there.

    (5) can disable the onboard sound and save and exit.

    (6) starts. XP is it and you want to install the drivers, don't let it.

    (7) when everything has calmed down, install the Creative and the sofware drivers.  Re-starting as a precaution after the installation.

    If you don't do the above, you will get a conflict between your card on board and the creative map that can cause symptoms similar to what you describe, and are not easy to diagnose and solve remotely.

    W7 is a different way of thinking, is everything. Each to his own. Personally, I stuck with it and am more than satisfied with its functionality. But as I said, everyone has his own ;-)

    FYI, there are Vista and XP sp3 compatibility modes in W7 to this software that does not work 'out of the box' in W7. If you want help on knowledge which of your programs will or won't work, re-post and I'll try and help you.

    Hope this helps, good luck,

  • blue screen and a loud noise after I installed a game

    Please can someone tell me why, my computer froze after downloading a trial version of a game from Big Fish Games, then a blue screen with white lettering came to tell me something about the stop and he was accompanied by this horrible vibrating noise! I could not "escape" or do the "control/alt/delete" that the system has frozen right on this blue screen with that noise going. I thought that the pc was going to explode! I finally had to unplug the power cord and remove the battery to get him to stop. I reinstalled the battery and power cord and restarted and it is slow in coming to the top, but with my icons of the game but done and performed normally. I uninstalled this game here, but today when you view a Youtube video, he did it again.

    I recently installed Windows XP Professional SP2 on an old computer in my company office. When it was over, I started windows update and I was told that my key is not valid. I went into regedit and changed the OOBETimer so that I could enter another code, activate Windows using, I received from winkeyfinder on another computer in the company. This key was supposed to be invalid, so I asked my boss. He used winkeyfinder on his computer and had the same winkeyfinder key returned on another working computer. Then, he contacted an old workman and got two more known keys to work. After entering the Windows activate both would also be invalid. Any ideas?

  • After you install DMO of the Campus, SYSTEM installation, data mover does not show PeopleSoft HRCS Database

    Hello everyone, I did the installation of the PeopleSoft Campus (DMO) instance and it is running now. After that, I started installing the SYS instance, using the same servers: Linux Oracle (database), Oracle, Linux (application server), Windows Server (1 machine) for Installation and Crystal Reports.

    I created a new database named HRMS9SYS without errors.

    Now its time to work with Data Mover. The first task is to use Database Wizard.

    Select target ORACLE database

    type of database to UNICODE

    character set AL32UTF8

    And in the next step Peoplesoft Applications to add

    I see that people US-English database system tools

    Can anyone explain why there are no PeopleSoft HRCS Database - database of PeopleSoft HRCS and English - Spanish?

    These are the same files that I installed the DMO instance...

    Yao,

    (1) be sure that the variable PS_APP_HOME points to the right directory where HCM has been installed (check tab (default) ConfManager/profile / Edit/ProcessScheduler).

    (2) be sure that you have checked the box "Database Peoplesoft HCM" during the installation of the application. Open the HCM_InstallLog.log log file in the directory where you installed the application.

    You can have something like this:

    CHOSEN_FEATURE_LIST = database demo of PeopleSoft HCM

    CHOSEN_INSTALL_FEATURE_LIST = database demo of PeopleSoft HCM

    CHOSEN_INSTALL_SET =

    -Online this means only demo is installed and you can not go for something else (with the exception of Peopletools system database that you don't want).
    If you have a long list of features, make sure that there is something like this:

    CHOSEN_FEATURE_LIST = PeopleSoft absence management,<...snipped for="" reading,="" this="" is="" the="" list="" of="" the="" features="" you="" checked="" when="" installing="" hcm...="">, PeopleSoft HCM Demo Database, database of PeopleSoft HCM

    CHOSEN_INSTALL_FEATURE_LIST = PeopleSoft management of absences,<...snipped for="" reading,="" this="" is="" the="" list="" of="" the="" features="" you="" checked="" when="" installing="" hcm...="">, PeopleSoft HCM Demo Database,database of PeopleSoft HCM

    CHOSEN_INSTALL_SET = PT

    I tested it, if the database of PeopleSoft HCM is disabled during the installation (and consequenty not list features in the log file), there is no option to install a SYS database later.

    If this is the case, you can reinstall the app in the same directory. I don't think it will hurt.

  • which partition to install windows 7 on new system

    I just bought a new laptop without system. I got a copy of windows 7 Home premium 64-bit to put on.

    The hard drive is 1000 GB and is divided into 4
    Name: Total size: free space: Type
    Disk 0 partition 1 GB 29.3, 29.2 GB system
    Disk 0 partition 2 GB 29.3, 29.2 GB primary
    Disk 0 unallocated space go-go 871.8 871.8
    Partition of drive 0 3: LENOVO_PART 1.1 GB 457.0 MB OEM (reserved)
    I know not to touch the OEM, but the marked partition system used allows to install because it is formatted in FaT32 and said it requires NTFS. 2 other partitions are viable, but I don't know which one to use. My instinct would be to go to the primary partition scored because I think that space, it would be OK and keep the operating system from everything that will go on the laptop. But I don't know about you. What do you guys suggest?

    The System Partition "Disk 0 partition 1 is where you would put it.

    To be honest, I would just remove everything and do a fresh install and create more partitions after.

    Are you sure there is no operating system already located on the OEM (reserved) file, you can use to install Windows? Because what is the meaning of keep if you already use a different installation media?

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    http://www-307.IBM.com/PC/support/site.WSS/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4HWSE3

    Computers laptops Lenovo include a function called the Lenovo OneKey Recovery button, which is used to boot into the recovery environment and to reinstall Windows.

    ---------------------

    If you still want to use the installation media you have, follow these steps:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

  • HP Pavilion Notebook 15-n203ex: 10 a Windows Activation failed after clean install

    To say things in a concise way, I bought a HP Pavilion Notebook with Windows 8.1 15-n203ex 64 bit pre installed.  On July 30, 2015, I upgraded my windows 8.1 to windows 10 which was provided as a free Microsoft Update and everything went fine except for a problem of display that has been fixed after installing the latest Nvidia drivers.

    Now, after about 30 days, I thought to do a clean install to my laptop with windows 10 and so downloaded ISO appropriate and my installation. After the installation of the new operating system, it is not Activated at all no matter what I do, I get an error to enter the CD key.

    Before you do a clean install of windows 10, using scripts from the internet, I received the Windows key from the registry that is unfortunately not be accepted by windows 10 now.

    Microsoft has informed if an upgrade is done Windows 8.1 for windows 10 there is no need to have a key during installation should be the key automatically from the Bios, correct me if I'm wrong.

    Please, help me to overcome this particular problem I am facing.

    Even after 20 days Activation took place so I decided to do a brief study of the issue and find me a solution.

    I solved the problem by downloading the 8.1 Windows 64 bit iso from Microsoft's Web site and installed. During installation, surprisingly the Installer did not ask the product key. Everything went very well and immediately after the update of the firt he invited upgrade me to Windows 10 I did happily.

    There are several applications available on the internet that provides you with the windows product key 8 or 8.1 from the Bios. Neosmart found to be the most simple and free to use without any malware.

    Now, my laptop is running 64-bit Windows 10 and fully active and up to date.

    Hope that this could be useful for someone like me.

  • Hard drive partitioned using its missing data after restarting the system, sharing and management of the computer

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite with Vista and since my laptop came with only a single 250 GB, i.e. C:\ partition I tried to partition more than I did the following, I had about 90 GB of data to start with which I transferred to a portable hard drive then:

    Panel--> Admin Tools--> computer management--> management disk storage--> right click C:\ Drive and reduce volume--> it showed only 50 GB of space heat shrink and I created a new volume with this space (F:\ 50 GB)--> transferred all the files to the new 50 GB portable HD space F:\ and remaining 40 GB on the drive C:\

    When I started my computer after a few hours, the new partition F:\ was missing! In addition, there was only the C:\ drive of origin with 40 GB data that I had transferred + 45 GB of data I think it was there previously because the installed files.

    C:\ was so now 40 + 45 = 85 GB without a trace of the 50 GB of data on the new partition I created!

    I had recovered my system to a day before before I did it, it could be the reason? Now, when I try to go to System Recovery it does me not an option for a restoration of watch system.

    To be sure, I now have a backup of the 40 GB of data from the C: drive, but I lost the data of 50 GB of the new partition, and since I have not written new data on the drive is possible that it's still there?

    When I try to search for some files I know research shows me the name of the file, but the file does not open, and the location of the file shows that it is not accessible.

    Kindly advise me on what can be done given that 50 GB of data is really important.

    Thank you

    Go to disk management and open it in full screen and then press the PrtScr button.  Go to start / all programs / Accessories / Paint and open the program.  Go to Edition and click on paste.  Then go to file and click on save as and select a .jpg file type and call the disk management and save it to your desktop.

    Then go to http://skydrive.live.com/ (you will have to perhaps sign up and maybe download some programs, but this will give you a free online place where you can store files for others.  Once the page to the top, click on add files and navigate to the file you just save it on your desktop and add it to one of the folders (I suggest the Public folder).  Once it clicked, and information about it will appear at the bottom right, including where exactly the file.  Copy this URL and include it in your next post.  I would like to see what looks like disk management without asking a thousand questions to describe everythhing for me.

    If you did a restore of the system already on the previous day, there is probably no new restore points created since then, so there is no option to do a system restore.  In addition, a system restore would not solve this problem - this is way beyond its capabiliities.

    Download the free EASUS Partition Manager: http://www.partition-tool.com/ and run it to scan your drive and see if it finds anything Disk Manager can not - it "s possible he can pick up our lost F:\ partition or unidentified space which could be this partition but not correctly identified.  In a same, t I would like to see if it detects anything useful (and it can also be useful the fixing of the problem if we can find it).  Moreover, the total space of the C:\ drive is now is what it was before you have shrunk or it it showing the size reduction that you can expect if the new volume had actually been created?  Let me know what you find if anything.

    Right-click on your CD-ROM drive, and then click on change drive letter and paths.  Click on edit and then right click on the drop box for the available letters.  F shows as available or is missing in the list?  Leave it (don't change anything in reality - I just wanted to see if F has shown as available since if it was assigned (such as C: is assigned) should not be shown at the top on the list.)  I would like to know if he was there.

    I hope this helps or at least gives us some clues on how to solve the problem (whatever it is).   Keep me informed.
