For the recovery console administrator password

• Different on the MS recovery console administrator password

  When I was with the XP CD recovery console, he asked my password.  When I typed in it, it is incorrect.  However, once I typed in anything, it worked.  I have a single installation of windows, so the first question, which is "what Setup do you access", had only one possibility, of course.  Maybe it was a virus that has changed.  But once I took action, the usual log on screen appeared, and my password worked.  Is the recovery console suppose to do?  Why?  This is my 3rd time only having to use the console. most of them have been guided, anyway.  I'm not familiar with the controls.

  Unfortunately, we do not know much about your system, so we have to endure a round of Q & A to provide the best advice.

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  The XP Recovery Console "must" the XP administrator password, and the default XP administrator password is any password empty or empty, so if you just press the Enter key has the prompt for Password Recovery Console, which usually works.

  The RC will always ask you which installation you want to use - even if you have just a single installation (this is normal).

  Sometimes people may not enter the RC because they do not know, I forgot or never knew their administrator password... then they're stuck - but only temporarily.

  Sometimes the way XP has been installed (as in a store bought system) can thwart attempts to get past the Password Recovery Console.

  If it is your desire, you can configure XP simply do not ask for a password when starting in the Recovery Console.

  If you do a search on the Internet (Google, Bing, etc.) you can find a lot of articles on the use of the Recovery Console.

  Here are some links of Microsoft on RC orders:

• where can I get batch.exe (for the recovery console) to auto-finition usual recovery?

  OK... usually my friends and I had problems like
  %Systemroot%/System32/Windows/system corrupted
  AMD, I found the microsoft article on how to fix it, but:
  It's hard to type this command every time so I saw the batch command
  But if I type lot has my recovery console (I use windows 7 recovery and it works) it seems that the command is not existing
  So where can I download this file so that I can use it?
  I wanted to use it like thi: first I open the console and navigate to my loan file and type
  batch.exe fix001t, txt
  batch.exe fix002.txt
  txt - s are so in these commands that I usually type
  I hope that I wolud find this file
  Thank you.

  (I use windows 7 recovery and it works) it seems that the command is not existing
  So where can I download this file so that I can use it?
  I wanted to use it like thi: first I open the console and navigate to my loan file and type
  batch.exe fix001t, txt
  batch.exe fix002.txt

  Look here:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial161.html

  Unlike the Windows XP Recovery Console, "batch" is not a command recognized in the Windows 7 system recovery environment.

  You must also have a bootable Windows XP Recovery Console CD. For more information:

  Then, you will be able to run the command batch to your heart's content. :-)

• Cannot access the System Recovery Console invalid password

  System Recovery Console insists that I use a "invalid password". I installed Win7. I make a written record of all used passwords so I'm sure I know the password I put in the first place; It is a simple word, that I always use for low security situations.  However, I tried all variants of logics of this password (upper and lower case, etc.), but nothing works.  I loaded 'ophcrack LiveCD' and found that the password is .  I tried to use no password and this also fails.

  What can I do to pass in addition to "invalid password" so I can't enter the System Recovery Console?

  Thank you.

  Hey Ron,.

  I finally got some time to focus on this and learned something that could explain the difficulties you encounter!

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-happened-to-the-recovery-console

  It seems that the Recovery Console has been taken from Windows Vista (and 7). Personally I did not know this, but then again I don't use it every day! :) So in short, it is not designed to work with Windows 7, and this issue is the result of this.

  Sorry it took me so long to find! I hope that answers your question!

  * How can I fix the MBR on the standard MBR MS when no original XP installation disk/DVD is usable - Toshiba Recovery DVD are available
  tried the XP CD from my office... but you know... it doesn´t work.

  Additional information:
  I deleted my HARD disk partition table and cannot access the first partition to a partition that would be very useful that I could try to recover this partition later - but I can't. My A200 SatPro also comes without floppy disk but can boot from USB.

  Thanks for any answer!

  Yes, the thing with the recovery console fixmbr should do the trick, and I am a bit surprised that your XP from your other computer disk does not work.

  You are not able to boot from it, or what is the exact problem? Because you will not be able to repair with your recovery disk.
  Advise you to try another original XP disc, may borrow from a friend and try again. You may need to change the boot priority to operate.

• missing or corrupt file system 32 config system access denied in the recovery console

  I tried to solve the problem with a 32 corrupt system config and when I go into the recovery console, it does not ask for any password which is one of the first things that the recovery console is supposed to ask.  When I type the command 'md tmp' to start the recovery process, it tells me ACCESS DENIED.  I have no password for the system or the administrative password.  I hope someone can help me.  Thank you very much.  I use the dell 4700 running windows XP.

• How to configure "allowremovablemedia" parameter in the recovery console?

  Hello

  I recently traded a 2.5 "portable laptop HD to a new computer in order to retrieve some files. When I got to the Windows logon screen, he said I would need activate windows, before I could access the files. It now not even longer shows up this message so it connects me automatically power off when you I connection. Seeing as how I don't have another computer to place the HD, I decided to just copy the files from the HD to another location in the recovery console.

  Unfortunately, the default recovery console not allow copying the files to removable media and I read that there is a parameter of the recovery console to enable the copy on removable media 'set allowremovablemedia = true' but I also heard that is not accessible without first log on as an administrator and change some settings for security policy.

  Because the way I can't log in as administrator (or anyone else), I was wondering if there are other options to be able to copy files to removable media in the recovery console.

  The answers would be greatly appreciated.

  Create free Linux Livecd such as Knoppix and boot your computer from this CD.  AprΦs the dΘmarrage, you will have full access to your hard drive and removable USB drives or network storage.  The CD is also easy to create that downloading a ".iso" file then the function 'Burn Image' of any burning program allows you to burn a bootable CD.  You may need to use another computer to download/burn this CD.

  Hello, I installed the recovery console, and so far I just used it to run chkdsk. Today, I tried to change the attribute on a read only file. I typed attrib - r h mitchell. I kept getting a msg saying that the settings were wrong. I checked attrib /? and he followed correctly, I thought. I am running winxp pro svc pk 3, ie8. Thanks in advance for any help.

  Good for you.

  Someday, you'll be glad you did.

  Mitchell, is a file or a folder?

  In the Recovery Console, you do not have access to each file and folder on your system.  You cannot in all cases - this isn't how the Recovery Console.

  You can read this article:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314058

  The Recovery Console is the recovery so that he knows only about some things - do not change the attributes on files and folders.

  There are some other bootable CD, you can use for this.

• Keyboard will not work to start the Recovery Console repair function

  I would like to use the repair feature in Windows XP Professional Recovery Console when starting Onboard or USB CD-ROM drive.  My keyboard works very well to enable F12 and select boot device.  Windows Setup starts and then loads bunch of pilots - looking... but then my keyboard won't work for select 'R' to start the Recovery Console repair.  All this started because I uninstalled a Lexmark printer and it seems that the driver Lexmark LXBTtime.dll lack now but still wants Windows to start.   So now Config\System will not load.  I saw some threads in this forum recommend that my wireless keyboard does not work - so I borrowed a USB wired keyboard - but still the same problem.  Cannot select 'R' - the keyboard light turns off and of course not recognised by Windows Setup.  Any ideas or suggestions?  In addition to the purchase of a MAC (it was my suggestion of neighbors :-)   Thanks for the review!

• PC will not boot or start the recovery console

  Windows XP 2004

  AMD Athlon XP 3000 +.

  AVG 8.0

  My friend tried to jailbreak his ipod. Now his PC will not boot the OS. It will go to the screen with the options to choose each time you start upward into the safe, normally last good known etc.. Choose one of these options results when control of the PC for the IDE drives and soon after an accident to return to the screen that says "a problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer." I try to start the recovery console, but then I get a blue screen that gives the same spiel, then this Stop error message:

  STOP: 0X0000007B (0XF79BA524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000).

  In addition, I changed the boot order in BIOS and tried to use the recovery through an ISO boot console. He ends up crashing this first screen appeared. Even if the BONE is fatal, these guys really want to the GET data out of their hard drive.

  Thank you.

  Or, if you just want to back up your data and do a clean install:

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd, or copy it to an external hard drive. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the computer target with a Bart PE (XP only) or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu and retrieve the data in this way. This has the additional advantage to tell you if the problems you are experiencing are hardware or software related because if the computer behaves perfectly in Linux, you know that Windows (software) is the culprit. Conversely, if the computer behaves badly under Linux, you will know that there is a hardware problem. This is general information on the use of Knoppix for the recovery of data when you do not have Windows:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with enough capacity to contain your data OR an external USB hard drive. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD *. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or freeImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created and the Windows files will be visible under Linux. If you want to burn CD/DVD, there will be a Linux burning program to use.

  * If your computer has only an optical drive and you want to use this drive to burn data or need to test drive, you can create a USB bootable Linux instead of a bootable CD. This site will show you how to do it-http://www.pendrivelinux.com

• Cannot start the Recovery Console Windows from the installation CD

  On my MacBook I ve running in VMware Fusion 3.0.1 a Virtual Machine with Win XP Pro.

  When I reboot Win XP Pro and start again from the Windows XP Pro installation CD, I can see the "Welcome" with the menu screen

  -To install Win XP now, press ENTER

  -To repair an installation of Windows XP using the Recovery Console, press r.

  -To quit Setup without installing Windows XP, press F3.

  When I click ENTER or R, I see the message

  -The installation program did not find any hard drives installed in your computer. Setup cannot continue. To quit Setup, press F3.

  Today the question? In the 40 GB of the virtual machine, I have two free partitions of 10 GB and 20 GB Win XP Pro execution. Why see Setup cannot process this partition?

  I ve also installed a second Virtual Machine, but the installation of VMware Fusion not show the "Welcome" screen, but it installs both Win XP Pro.

  The installation of the recovery in the virtual race Machine Win XP Pro Console is successful, but when I start the recovery in Start Menu Console, just the screen blue 0x7B (inaccessible boot device).

  What must I do, to start the Recovery Console in VMware Fusion? Or another question: when merging does support the Windows Recovery Console?

  Wow, nothing indicates that you use a German version of Fusion that your English is excellent.  Anyway as VMware headquarters is in the United States, like me, I always provide information in English and information-specific guidelines in the VMware Fusion help files come from the English version as well as any Documentation from VMware that I reference.  I say this next part as a general and not directed comment towards you, as you have noted your using the German version... Any person requesting help must always at least include technical information referencing manufacture, make, model, version, and language other then English, material goods and software involved in issues.  We'll find a good reference for the type of information that must always be included in HOWTO: ask (and answer) Questions.

  As a much get into the BIOS if you use the Fusion 3, you don't need to enter the BIOS to change the boot device as this can be done in the settings now however to enter the BIOS for other things that need/want of press you F2 directly after starting the Virtual Machine and after having clicked on the screen but the av VM boot so fast that it's easily missed.  You can add the following settings to the file of configuration .vmx of the Virtual Machine to slow down the startup so that force once in the BIOS.

  bios.bootDelay = "3000"
  bios.forceSetupOnce = "TRUE"
  

  The bios.bootDelay is in milliseconds and the bios.forceSetupOnce Boolean value is then set to FALSE, automatically.  Each of these parameters are independent of each other.

  You can find the following useful notes for this and or other uses...

  ====================

  Notes: keyboard

  Different setting function, you may need to adjust various preferences keyboard to work with the function keys and or use the Fn key.

  OS X > you may need to press the Fn + F6 etc. and this can be changed in system preferences > keyboard & mouse > keyboard > use all F1, F2, etc...

  Merger 1 > VMware Fusion (menu) > Preferences... > keyboard and mouse > activate Mac OS shortcuts keyboard

  Fusion of the 2 and 3 > VMware Fusion (menu) > Preferences... > keyboard & mouse > Mac OS shortcuts > activate Mac OS keyboard shortcuts

  ====================

  Notes: Starting the virtual machine from CD/DVD or ISO Image

  If the Virtual Machine is not initiating the CD/DVD or ISO Image, and then select the CD-ROM in the Boot Menu.

  Engage the Boot Menu and select the CD-ROM drive...

  The bottom of the virtual machine just above the status bar after the Virtual Machine is started, it has...

  "Press F2 to enter SETUP, F12 for the start-up network, ESC for Boot Menu"

  On the status bar, it features...

  'To direct entry to this virtual machine, click inside the window.'

  BIOS flashing by is very fast so you need to work quickly however give it a try and if the Start Menu cannot be higher then the configuration of the Virtual Machine file .vmx must be edited to slow the STATION and or change the boot order.

  OK, click the big Play button on the screen of the virtual machine, and then quickly mouse click in the Virtual Machine screen and then press the ESC key to bring up the Start Menu and select the CD-ROM drive. If it boots the CD very well and if the Boot Menu does not appear, because he goes just to quick access and then try again or...

  Watch the Boot Delay section in the current user's Guide to VMware Fusion and the section of the virtual machine files of A Beginner's Guide to VMware Fusion on when the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file is and add the following lines to the file. TextEdit can be used to edit the .vmx file.

  To give more time to indulge, the Start Menu Add the following...

  bios.bootDelay = "3000".

  For, once, force the VM in the BIOS to change the Boot order in the BIOS if the CD-ROM is first add the following...

  bios.forceSetupOnce = 'TRUE '.

  ====================

  Notes: By modifying the .vmx file

  For Fusion 2.x and 3.x ctrl-click the target entry of Virtual Machine on the windows of the library of the Virtual Machine and choose Show in Finder and then Ctrl-click on the packaging of the Virtual Machine and select to display the contents of the package.

  By default in the normal Fusion 1.x virtual Fusion function file are created in the folder "~/Documents/Virtual Machines" and according to host operating system version and or Fusion worm. There may be a .localized after Virtual Machines although by default, this extension is not visible in the Finder.

  ~ Is your Home Directory.

  The files that make up the virtual machine are placed in a folder (aka Bundle and or packing) bearing the extension '.vmwarevm' which, by default, this extension is not visible in the Finder.

  Example: "~/Documents/Virtual XP.vmwarevm Machines/Windows" in the Finder would just resemble an icon named "Windows XP."

  To view the contents of the entire file "Windows XP.vmwarevm" ctrl-click (or right-click) on the "Windows XP" icon and select Show the contents of the package.

  To change the configuration file of .vmx ctrl-click (or right-click) on the "Windows XP.vmx" file and select open with > choose another... then in Application choose TextEdit.

  Note: If you use Firefox do not copy and paste the parameters if TextEdit unless you copy only the exact line and nothing else in the case, use an editor such as TextWrangler.

  ====================

  Notes: Creating an ISO Image of the CD/DVD drive

  When you use utility disk in order to have a bootable ISO Image, you must select Master CD/DVD without encryption in which case by default, it will have an extension .cdr file and in version 1.1 of the merger and later does not need to be changed in .iso, although one can if one chooses to. A default .dmg image is compressed and is not bootable, as an uncompressed .dmg will start if changed in .iso and of course the source CD/DVD should be bootable in the first place.

  To create an ISO Image using disk utility...

  1 insert the CD or DVD disc into the optical drive of your computer.

  2. open disk utility (/ Applications/Utilities/Disk utility).

  3. Select the CD or DVD drive in the list of disks and volumes.

  4. Choose file > new > "Disk Image from (name of the disc)."

  5. type a name for the disk image.

  6. choose "DVD/CD master" from the Image Format pop-up menu.

  7 choose "none" from the encryption pop-up menu.

  8. click on save.

• Satellite C55 - A - 1 K 6 - Partition which is Important for the recovery of Toshiba?

  My laptop is Satellite C55 - A - 1 K 6

  In the past, I have deleted Toshiba System Recovery Partition by mistake when I install the new OS for my laptop so I sent my laptop to Toshiba Service and they recreate standard scores and send back me my laptop.

  I need to ask this question to you now;

  When I opened the disk management in the computer management, I see two partition named Recovery. One of them is the beginning of the disc and it is 1 GB, another 11FR and at the and of the disc. What is the Toshiba system recovery?

  On the other hand I just created 3 * 4, 5 GB Toshiba System Recovery DVD by Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. Instead of I have those DVD am I still need the recovery Partition for recovery of my laptop in the future?

  Now, if I delete all the partitions on the hard drive now, can I still use Toshiba Recovery with these 3 * 4, 5 GB DVD?

  Thank you...

  Original recovery image contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, tools specific to Toshiba and utility and sure some additional software so it may not be only 1 GB. 11 GB partition is for the recovery image.

  > On the other hand I just created 3 * 4, 5 GB Toshiba System Recovery DVD by Toshiba > Recovery Media Creator. Instead of I have those DVD am I still need the recovery recovery Partition > my cell phone in the future?
  In general you don't need it more. With the help of your created recovery DVD you will be able to install the original recovery image whenever you want. In case that the HARD drive will be effective and exchanged with a new one, you can use these discs to install the original recovery image.

  Many people do not read manuals s and does not create a recovery media. After a few experiences, they are surprised why HARD recovery disk image installation doesn't work anymore.

  I hope that some other Toshiba laptop owners will read this so here are original recovery Toshiba recall info:
