• Creating image of the system partition to a new hard drive FACTORY_IMAGE

  Sorry if this has been posted before...

  The neighbor in its Pavilion's hard drive is dying. I can access all the files on the partition FACTORY_IMAGE, but not the primary partition because of hard drive problems. He did not make a recovery DVD/CD set. I have the drive plugged into another computer. Is it possible to recreate the DVD recovery since the FACTORY_IMAGE partition with the damaged main partition and hard disk in another PC? I am aware that he can order replacement from HP discs, but it would be nice to slap a new hard drive in this weekend and bring it to the top and running. Thank you.

  He has proved to be easier to reintall windows, then the drivers from scratch.

• Catastrophic failure Ox8000FFFF and running out of disk space on FACTORY_IMAGE (d :))

  Whenever I save my files to a disc, it is said that he has been completed successfully, and then later, I get a message that says Ox8000FFFF of catastrophic failure and I am running out of disk space on FACTORY_IMAGE (:)) IM Windows Vista. I'm not a novice in computers, I am a computer expert. When I pull my FACTORY_IMAGE folder, I don't know what are the files, so I'm aftaid of monkey with them. I deleted the old and useless files, but whenever I run the backup, I get the message of Ox8000FFFF of catastrophic failure later. I can only assume that the backup and running out of disk space on FACTORY_IMAGE are related. I've seen corrections on the Net for this problem, but I'm afraid to try them. Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

  1. to reinstall Vista from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

  F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

  You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

  2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

  Also ask them how to make records.

  Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

  Should be backups on an external hard drive or DVD; external hard drive preference.

  To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

  See you soon.

• Factory_Image (D) almost full!

  Hello guys,.

  I wonder if someone could help :)

  I've had my HP computer now for almost 3 years, under vista, but I noticed recently that the "FACTORY_IMAGE(D:))". "is almost full, but I don't understand why. Its capacity is 14 GB, space used is 12.1gd and free space is 1.94 GB. I have tons of space on my C drive.

  All my photos, music, games, etc. etc. are stored on the C drive and there I 564 GB of free space, which is a lot :)

  The only thing he says is on drive D is "valorisation" and I understand it's simply because if there are problems with the PC so I can restore to my usual set up, but this "valorisation" file said that he holds only 4.77 MB.

  I never once backed up my files on CD (a little risky ano) but I just don't want to how to get more free space on drive D. I do a back up? Who would even help that all my pictures and music etc are on the C drive.

  I might be nonsense here, but I have no no that much about computers, but I must put the last "restore point" on a CD then wipe the D drive? Is the D drive just build with restore points and it becomes progressively larger until it is moved to a CD then wiped and then it starts to build up again? Seems like a good idea, but I might be nonsense so please tell me if I am lol

  I need help please :)

  Thanks in advance

  The Factory_Image partition is here to restore your computer how it was when it left the factory. You should not do something for her.

  If you do not get the actual Vista low disk space warnings, do nothing. If you are, you can refer to this article:

  HP Pavilion a4327c Pc, Windows 7, 64 bit.

  GFS,

  You need not worry. It is supposed to be like this.

  It's only the purpose to hold a full recovery for your operating system Partition.

  Do not restore points save, or anything in that partition.

• How to copy data from one hard drive to another after the upgrade?

  I have a HP e9220y, and I recently bought a new hard drive for it. There is nothing wrong with the former, but this one has a 64 MB cache and 7200 RPM so I hope it will be a little faster. I installed it and it works fine, but I want to copy all data from the old disk to the new so I can start everything off the faster hard drive and I seem to have a bit of doing wrong. I can't just copy and paste because of the Windows system files that are used. And last night when I set up Windows backup, and went to bed, when I thought it that Windows has recovered from a stop unexpected, rebooted, and only 2 GB of data saved obtained.

  What is the best way to move all the data from the old drive to the new drive, make it the default C: drive and move partitions system and factory_image as well? Thank you!

  (1) If your old drive and the new drive is Seagate or Western Digital, then free House with their cloning software.

  (2) before starting the clone process, I found best to perform a disk cleanup and defragmentation.

  Cloning software to copy the two partitions. Example:

  Old drive 250 GB formatted to 232 C: created 220 and 12 GB D:

  New 1000GO drive formatted to 931 GB created 919 GB C: and D: to 12 GB

  The "Seagate disc Wizard" cloning software will let create you a clone automatic or manual partition resizing.

  The two modes to offer an overview of the actions before commit you. The manual on this page of Seagate (PDF) is 68 pages.

  After the cloning process he complete, all you have to do is swap on the disks. Besure to connect your new disc on the original motherboard SATA port.

• HP 300-1020: recovery questions

  Hi all

  HP Touchsmart 300-1020 all-in-one

  OS is Windows 7 64 bit

  I recently bought the Touchsmart 300-1020 and many issues.  I intend to do a factory reset to solve most if not all of the questions, but when I put in place the Recovery Manager, it does not give me the choice to reset to factory conditions without the help of recovery disks.

  Is it because the 300-1020 was not manufactured with a recovery partition recovery without disks using wildly or could the partition have been corrupted somehow?

  The next step was to make a record of recovery, but but the creation of HP recovery disks does not see the recovery partition.  To quote the message, "the recovery partition is not found" Image icon factory next to the HP (C indicates 12.7 GB free of 12.8 GB.)  There is no files contained in FACTORY_IMAGE (D in addition, at the opening of the creation of recovery disks, I read that it could be a set of recovery disks created.)

  If the first owner created these disks, which would be why there is no files in the original Image (D?)

  Next, I decided to do the best I could to fix the problems manually, but they proved to be many.  There seems to be issues with "Touchsmart Homepage" as well.   Photos see toward the top in the home page but music and videos in different files are not visible.  It seems that the best move is to buy the necessary dics and get things to normal as far as I can get them again.

  Which leads to the third question and I hope I was descriptive enough for someone to answer: a set of recovery disks will bring this computer to a State factory reviewing the questions I mentioned with particular reference to the absence of the recovery partition?

  Thanks for all the tips.  I think that I have now found the right place for what will be displayed.

  Ambico

  All new HP computers come with a recovery partition.  It is possible that the original owner somehow altered the recovery partition or delete its content.

  The only way to bring the computer back to life would be to order the HP recovery discs.

• Want to do a 8.1 Win USB backup just in case of failure of my laptop model Envy HD M6-k125DX

  Hello

  I just bought my new laptop Envy M6-k125DX which has the recovery on the hard drive. This laptop is not a DVD or CD and it said that I can do a Win 8.1 install USB to the laptop.

  My question is that what someone has done this before?

  What size USB thumb drive is necessary. I suspect a version 3.0.

  I read most of the books online, but it does not say what size there must be for the operating system.

  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Please see HP - computers create a Image recovery on discs or save an Image recovery on a Flash USB (Windows 8) drive for instructions on creating a recovery USB Flash drive.

  (1) use a Virgin, high quality USB flash drive no more than 32 GB and which is NOT labelled as compatible with Windows 8.
  (2) creation of image recovery software allows a single recovery image must be created. If you have created a recovery image on another medium, you cannot create a recovery image on a USB key.
  (3) the creation of image recovery software requires a uncorrupted recovery partition (FACTORY_IMAGE D.)

  (4) no corrupt means that the recovery partition has not been modified or deleted.
  (5) the creation of image recovery process takes about 30 minutes.

  I managed to create half a dozen by recovery recovery via a USB 2.0 Flash Drives axle Patriot 32 GB Flash USB drives... they work like a champ. It is probably better to use USB 2.0 Flash Drives that are not listed as Windows 8 compatible, however a lot of USB 3.0 Flash drive should also work. You might just try a few.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• Question on HP recovery disks

  The thing is, im about to upgrade my motherboard and buy Windows 7 as my vista OEM license becomes zero, but on this upgrade, the parts that are remains a do a computer itself without a hard drive. Now the question is: if I do recovery HP discs will be that I can then in the future when I decide to finally add a HP computer hard drive install Windows Vista from the recovery discs or what I need to get the real Vista install disks somewhere? The FAQ for support disks, said they could be used in a "major system crash" but does that mean that they can be used to install windows vista on a blank hard disk or does it require the FACTORY_IMAGE partition currently on my hard drive?

  Hello

  HP recovery disks, check if a "tattoo" on the chip of the bios in order to validate the installation, so as long as it is present, Vista should install fine.  There is no problem with the fact that the hard drive may be empty - the recovery disks will actually recreate the recovery image on the disc.

  The only thing to keep in mind is that the recovery disks will load automatically all the original drivers that have been necessary, so forinstance if your new configuration has a different than the original graphics card, this can cause problems when the original driver is loaded - if you can, keep the key elements of the material as it is identical to the original.

  Kind regards

• Will be full system recovery card known areas around bad disk C: and Clusters?

  I have a "PC HP Pavilion p6210y Desktop" run "Windows 7 Home Premium x 64".  CHKDSK said my C: drive is so corrupt, I have to do a "Factory System Recovery" my purchase date of 2009.

  If I do a "Factory System Recovery" of "FACTORY_IMAGE" (D :) ', the recovery process complete "map around ' clusters and bad sectors and produce a full C: recovery accurate?  Or is - this disc 2009 so old that I need to replace it and reinstall Windows 7 using my "system repair discs?

  If you use the /r switch in Chkdsk it tries to fix the bad clusters or move the data to a cluster of good.  CHKDSK will isolate the bad cluster and do not use it.  Maybe it's time to think about replacing the hard drive, it could be near the end of its service life.

  You can perform a restore factory on this hard drive, but you must back up the data that you have on your E drive on an external drive, preferably an external hard drive, because they can be erased.

  You need to install a new hard drive, it must be of equal size or greater than what you have now.  To install the new OS, you will need to use recovery discs that you can order from HP.  If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144 and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.  Otherwise the site worldwide: http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/support.html

  If HP does not have the recovery disks, you can order them from the surgeons of the computer:

• Vista Home Premium - cannot create a system - error (0 x 81000101) Restore Point

  I found the thread ""Microsoft Answers > Forums Home > Windows Vista > Security and privacy > Vista Ultimate - can't Create System Restore Point - error 0x800423F "and tried to follow the instructions for a similar problem but unfortunately I knew no chance to solve."

  After picking up my operating system (and emotional stability) after some type of registry startup problem (I think by installing automatic updates of Windows or trying in vain to remove a beta version of Windows Live Essentials caused), I am now unable to create system restore points.

  Not sure if it is a side effect of my previous diagnosis reboot-a-thon, defragment my HARD drive, disk cleanup running, karma for wanting to change the unwanted services from "Automatic" to "Manual", the result of a record of the ugly or another random event.

  When I try to create a restore point, I get the Protection system pop-up dialog (which seems even to have its own sound): "the restore point could not be created for the following reason: the creation of a shadow copy has expired.". Try this operation again. (0 x 81000101) Please try again. »

  I kinda like the syntax of phrase yoda "Retry this operation" but worried that system restore does not work.

  Specifications:
  ~ IQ818A HP
  ~ Windows Vista Edition Home Premium
  ~ Service Pack 1
  ~ 4 GB OF RAM
  ~ 64-bit
  ~ Properties system has already show "HP (c :)) (System))" as being selected for "automatic restore points" with the "most recent restore point" being yesterday.
  ~ (C) a 331GB of free space and 123 GB of unused space
  ~ (D) is the "FACTORY_IMAGE" of (c) partition and was selected previously, but then I tried to deselected it.
  ~ "Volume Shadow Copy" has been classified as "Started" and "Automatic" in the Services; I changed it to manual.
  ~ "Virtual disk" is listed as "manual" in Services.

  ~ avast! The antivirus is active
  ~ avast! Scanner shows no viruses or other problems
  ~ Spybot scan shows no virus or other problems

  I disabled later, restoration of the system, rebooted, enabled the restoration of the system, restarted and then tried to save a point of restoration but no luck, I received the same error (0 x 81000101) as before. I then typed "net stop vss ' disabled shadow copies of volume storage in Device Manager, rebooted and activated the system restore and then tried to «Create a system restore point...» "once again, but nothing helped.

  I even removed the SD card that housed my ReadyBoost, just in case where that was having some strange side effects.

  I then ran sfc/scannow and must "checks 100% complete." but has NOT gotten any other report (for example "Windows Resource Protection did not any violation of the integrity." as stated on another computer to test I ran the same command on). I followed the link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833 and tried opening sfcdetails.txt but it was empty; Perhaps, the command still runs on my computer that seems to use a lot of CPU?

  After reading a bit more about the problem (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/826936 for Windows Server) and think about the recent very slow performance of some applications of system on my TouchSmart, I start to think that my previous tinkering with services caused something to load that should not or something not to load that should and therefore the computer does not have enough juice or is not properly configured to create a restore point. Do you think that this is the problem? Is there somewhere I can find a list of services by default OEM on the parameters (deferred), manual or automatic?

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you.

  Hi TouchSydney,

  After you disable and re-enable the system restore, you did a restart? This removed all your restore points?

  If this isn't the case, you might want to restore it to a date before all this happened, he probably still will give the error.  Disable and re-enable system restore to remove all restore points.  Restart and try to create restore points.

  You can also restore this way cleaning points:
  http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/36cefd1c-0fbb-738b-2274-4098b15384fb1033.mspx

  In addition, let the VSS service to automatic and change the Options on the tab recovery to restart the Service in case of failure.

  Hope this helps,
