Envy h8 1430: backup media

I seems to have made several backup usb drives. I was wondering if it could be authorized until each of them would be used for. I have one that seems to be a recovery disk, one that seems to be a boot disc and whoever said this is a disk image. Do I really need all of them? When would I need all of them, if I have to keep them all? I think I know part of the answer, but I thought it would be good for others too if there was a clarification.

I know this video is a little long, but it explains the differences between the different recovery options in Windwos 8 PCs:

  • How read the Archive.msf and .sbd files stored on the backup media without restoring the current profile?

    I have stored vast e-mail Archives of files on backup media to free hard drive memory. How to read Archive.sbd and Archive.msf selected files without restoring them to the current profile? Can I create a new profile and restore it temporarily?

    Tbirds mail-container has a pair of files

    (1) - name of the container (with no extension) here are all the emails one after the other.
    (2) container - name.msf one type of index, if deleted itwill be restored

    If there is any subcontainers, there is also a container - name.sbd which is a directory (map)
    In this directory there are new pairs or even directories.

    Files without extension is the mbox files. As they exist even when there is simply a directory .sbd and not emails, you need only point to this mbox (empty) file to load the tree entire (folder - map-) use the ImportExportTools add-on.

    and so on... The story was that I got my laptop with any OS, so I used the included 32 bit recovery disc, now I want to use the full 4 GB of ram and I tried the 64 bit recovery disc, so I ordered the backup media on the site mentioned on all the posts here, and for 34,90 EUR (quite expensive) , they sent me the backup media, but are a 32-bit version... for 35 I think at least they'd send me the two not only the (32 bit versions I already have...) any suggestions?

    Hello

    I never ordered this support, but maybe you should mention it in the order details.
    However, if you get this recovery disk so I guess, you should have some contact, email addresses or phone numbers, etc. in the package.
    Get in touch with these guys here and request the 64-bit version.

    Good luck

  • PSE 8 not backup Media Files

    I have PS Elements 8 (Windows 7-64 bit) with 9000 catalogued photos.  It is fabulous everything EXCEPT when I do a backup (file-> backup CD catalog) backup contains ONLY the catalog files, not the media files.  Backup of my 27 GB of photos is so only 200 MB.

    My multimedia files and my catalog files are both on the D: drive (2nd internal HD)... the Program files and Windows installed on C:. I tried grouped (all files are linked) and repair of the catalog (no problem found).  The backup works fine with no error, it's just MUCH too small.

    I tried the support of drive C:, D: drive and the DVD with exactly the same result.

    I made a simple copy/paste of my complete file on an external drive, so I have not saved much.  But I would use the built-in feature, so I transfer whole enchilada to my laptop without losing links (laptop doesn't have a disk D :).)

    Anyone have any ideas why PSE refuses my backup media?  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Adobe is clearly PSE as a milk cow, by investing very little effort in the Organzer and preferring to add some new features for marketing purposes rather than fix bugs that pending for years.  Here is an interesting blog of Michael Slater, who led the development of the original Photoshop (later renamed to organizing PSE) Album.  Michael provides a time frame on the decline in the quality of the Organzer:

    I used to recommend the PSE Organizer to friends, but not more.  I continue to contribute here to help others like me who have large, existing catalogues in PSE.

    Lightroom is a better alternative for serious amateurs with large collections.   Windows Live Photo Gallery is surprising good for more casual users, even those who have very large collections (better than iPhoto, in my opinion).

    Are you replacement recovery media? This could also be a HDD failure so that causes the error. Check that the HARD drive is still in working condition?

  • Re: Request for help with Tecra A10-156 (Vista backup media)

    Dear members of the Forum

    I am the owner of a laptop Toshiba Tecra A10-156. As the owners of this model will be aware, the machine is supplied with Windows Vista pre-installed. Also supplied is a recovery of Windows XP Professional disc, which, once loaded on the machine, remove everything on the hard drive, including the operating system Vista and the Vista hard disk recovery partition.

    The documentation that comes with the laptop warns the user if he wants to take the Windows XP program on the computer, it must burn a DVD of backup software vista before you load the XP image because if it loads Windows XP without doing that then he loses everything to do with VISTA on the machine.
    Unfortunately, when I bought my machine, I did exactly this error and load Windows XP without backup Vista Software. Load the XP dvd, hard drive was completely wiped out, including not only the Windows Vista installation, but also the recovery partition.

    Although windows XP is a good operating system, I would like the ability to restore my machine to the factory setting. When I asked what to do with Toshiba, they said that the only way they could help would be to sell me a backup DVD of Vista recovery which would cost me a little money. (more than thirty books).
    They also mentioned that if I could find another owner of A10 - 156 using vista would be ready, they could burn a DVD using their recovery from vista machine and then I would be able to use this DVD to do the job.

    As I know personally of all other owners Tecra A10, I am writing to make a plea to ask if some A10-156 (it takes as the exact model) owner would please that nature to let me have a copy of VISTA backup medium please. Of course, I'd be more than willing to pay a total amount of the Virgin DVD (s) and shipping costs.
    If someone is willing or able to help should I very grateful indeed and hope to hear from a fellow A10-156 owner as soon as possible.

    Yours sincerely
    Ian in the United Kingdom

    I hope someone here can help and maybe you should put your e-mail address for direct contact.

  • I can't access my encrypted data files backup media on portable hard drive

    I'm completely frustrated because I backed up my elements multimedia such as photos, videos, and documents on my iomega 80 GB usb portable hardrive and now when I try to open the photos there are "no previews" available, my videos "no access rights", in media player and documents "access denied." Yet these same files on my C: WINDOWS XP, they are accessible.

Properties for the records that I have problems with checked in the Advanced tab "Encript the contents to secure data". I disabled this restart, restarted all to nothing does not. I need advice because I have the feeling that the ntfs files have rights of access and I have to show somehow that I'm the user for these files. NOTE: I tried all the security and sharing of troubleshooting guides without result; Anyone having problems simular Advisor please a solution to this delema. Thanks - Michael

    Hi msielectric,

    1. What is the full error message you get?

    I suggest you to take ownership of the partition on the laptop hard drive and check if it helps:

    a. Click Start, click all programs, and click Accessories.

    b. right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

    c. in the administrator of the command prompt window, type the following command and press on enter:

    takeown /F (file path)

    For example:
    takeown /F C:\Users\\Music

    d. now, type the following command and press ENTER:

    CACLS (file path) /G Administrator: F

    Note: Instead of the administrator, you can type your name of user account with administrator privileges.

    For example:
    CACLS C:\Users\\Music/g Microsoft: F (where Microsoft is the account of a user with administrator privileges).

    e. restart the computer and test the issue.

  • I use a blu - ray disc as my backup media by using the backup and restore, but windows will say still unable to perform this task

    I have a HP h9 - 1250t and can never use a blu ray disc tp save my work using the command from the windows Explorer which is strange since I use blu - ray disc in my dell xps 14, any help on this?

    Hello edilbertojun,

    Backup stores data in a compressed format on optical drives and blu - ray is an optical device device, I don't think you can use Windows built in backup and restore functionality.

    You must use a backup solution 3rd party backup on the Blu - ray disc.

    I may be wrong so that other members of the community can be better able to solve this problem.

  • 10 PSE closes when you try to backup media

    I'm running a Windows 7 (64 bit) Sony Vaio VPCCW2S1E.

    All windows and PES 10 updates are up to date. Default settings apply

    Have also installed and reinstalled.

    What's happening:

    1. I opened PSE10 Organizer and reminder to backup then appears

    2 save the catalog - Yes via HD or DVD option

    3. get a ' items 10 organizing has stopped working windows checks for a solution to the problem

    4. then ' Elements 10 organizing has stopped working - a problem caused blocking the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

    So far, I have a solution to Windows or found that Adobe.

    I seem to be able to import images and change as usual.

    Can someone give me a solution. I copied 'my images' on a reader network, but really need to be able to save some PSE10.

    Kind regards

    Neil

    Hi, I started from the 'Welcome' screen, but was the cause of the problem, after several hours online chat with Adobe PSE support Alexander. a guy at the top of the page.

    The problem was caused by my Freecom Toughdrive 1 TB USB harddrive. Once disconnected from the back upward process goes well.

    My another 320 Freecom toughdrive is taking the back upward. We believe that the software password provided with the 1 TB drive can be the culprit, but until I have test this theory, I'll use my other records. I also discovered that adobe PSE shouldn't be saved on a network drive.

    hope it helps someone else too

  • Recovery HP ENVY h8-1430

    So this PC froze when I started an upgrade of the BIOS. Now, it doesn't do anything but lights. I tried to upgrade the BIOS on a USB, rename it to HPBIOS. ROM, etc. - nothing.

    I refuse to believe that, at this time, there is not a recovery process.

    Any help appreciated.

    Thank you

    GP

    Follow-up I've been able to recover the PC by manually flashing BIOS via the SPI road. This site will give you the how and the what-for on how to do it. Need an Arduino, but they are cheap and useful to have in any case.

    Good luck.

  • envy dv7: Create Recovery Media frozen

    I try to erase my laptop and it reimage to its original state.   I started to bury the recovery dvd and one of the first disc of the process frozen in 37% of the disc verfiy phase.

    How should I proceed?  I don't want to lose the opportunity to create the recovery disk.

    I'm unable to close.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hi @Jarome

    Thank you for your request, I will do my best to help!

    I understand that when you try to create your recovery CD it froze at 37% during the creation of the first disc.

    That the process is not complete it should allow you the process again.

    Please, remove the disk and restart your system.

    Here is a link to create a recovery disk Image or save a recovery Image on a Flash USB (Windows 8) drive.

    If for any reason, you are still unable to complete the recovery disc, I recommend that you contact HP support and inform them of your problem.

  • Bought a used with hard drive erased computer and any backup media.

    Hello.

    I recently bought a Hewlet-Packard computer used in a sale at auction of the hospital.  Due to the rules of confidentiality of patients and the Software EULA, the hard drive has been erased, including the operating system.  No software support has been included, but a key 'Windows 7 pro OA HP' tag is on the cover.  I knew this before that I put in hope, but I was able to download online using the number of the Windows key?  The only other option I can think is buy at Wal Mart, but all I found was Windows Pro 8.1.

    I have Vista Home Basic supplied with the Dell printer I use now, but I've read other messages saying factory-installed OS are unusable on another computer to transplant the hard drives may not work.

    My keyboard, mouse and monitor are at Dell, they would work with Hewlett-Packard?  If I had to buy new devices, I'm afraid this will wind up being a financial drain and I would be better to keep what I have, or buy a new computer that has the appropriate software.

    Thank you.

    Well the specs indicate both PS2 and USB keyboards and mouse is supported : http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay/?spf_p.tpst=kbDocDisplay&spf_p.prp_kbDocDisplay=wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c01926344-1%257CdocLocale%253D%257CcalledBy%253D&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken

    So, as long as you do a 'keyless installation' you can try the USB interface.
