G6 Pavilion: System on laptop Pavilion G6 recovery

Son of the bought a laptop HP Pavilion G6 W7 on which a couple of years later he bought and installed W8. He has now bought a new laptop and spent the Pavilion to a friend. However, before he does, he wants to return the machine as long as the factory and in the process of deleting all personal files, etc. He won't save all of the information on the computer and the friend prefers W7 W8. Is it possible to return the W7 machine and if so, can anyone provide a link with information on how to get there?

Recovery process underway as I type.

  • Resolved on Pavilion P6267 recovery problem

    You probably will not see my previous post because I think that I added it to a question, rather than to make a post - you know how we newbies are. I was able to solve the problem of not being able to make a pf my Pavilion P6267 recovery because I got was a black screen when I pressed F9 at startup. I found that, under control panel, recovery, recovery tools advanced, there is the possibility of creating a recovery disk. The option supports only USB memory sticks, so had better have a couple on hand :-) Of course I didn't read it that closely at first, and I jumped my CD in the drive and waited, waited and waited. Then I went back and read that he needed a memory stick. Boy, I felt stupid. Well, I think I'm getting better started on recovery. I have to stay up tonight until it is done, the necessary program installed, the database for this program on one of 5 external hard drives and the latest medical data for 2013 entered in the database because my husband wants to do taxes this weekend. Since we had more than $20 000.00 sundries (right, the company paid more than $ 1 million), we really need to be able to get this information back, then quickly, so that we can apply it to the tax return. Have a nice weekend - after finding this recovery option, the mine will be certainly more pleasant it looked like about 30 minutes ago! Janice

    Jan, welcome to the forum.

    Thank you much for your follow-up to your problem.  Discover you the secret to get a problem solved on the forum; create your own threads.  In addition, it is always a good idea to make recovery disks/USB key when you first buy your computer.

  • Question about OS preinstalled on laptops Toshiba and recovery CD?

    Y at - it only something preinstalled on Toshiba notebokes and if so, what is pre-installed? Only Windows or also the software?
    Is there a score with these things pre-installed on it? Do you get the original software CD or that you get only a recovery disk?
    I hope someone could help me with these questions.

    Thank you very much.

    HI Sanne,

    This will depend on what any Toshiba laptop model you buy, and also the provider that you use.
    Some Toshiba laptops come with recovery discs that you use to install the operating system base so that any software provided and utilities. Other Toshiba laptops have a 'hidden' partition and a utility to allow you to create your own recovery discs.

    If you buy your ook noteb through points of sale, then they may well pre = install the operating system for you as well as their own software and tools.

    In general, you will not receive an original CD of Microsoft since the laptop will be provided under an OEM license.

    As you can see that there is no simple answer to your question. :-)

  • Laptop computer HP recovery question

    Hello

    I have a laptop HP DM4 Clubhouse. It is currently running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit. The issue I had with the laptop is that during startup, it goes to a screen with 2 options: 'Launch (recommended) StartupRepair' or 'Start Windows normally' (who just goes to a blue windows screen and is no more progress).  So, I then when the BIOS options and ran the memory and hard drive tests. The memory test ran and says memory ok. However, the test drive long popped up saying complete hard drive 1 (305). So, I was wondering if the hard drive is broken and needs to be replaced? I also tried to restore the laptop using the recovery disks that I had done some time. Whenever I try to boot from the laptop recovery disks will go just to the blue screen of windows and will not progress further. So, I don't know what to do with this point. Any guidance would be appreciated.

    A hard drive is pretty fast & easy to replace. You can use a SATA hard detail. Just be sure to get one with a capacity at least as large as the original in order to use recovery disks. It may be bigger but not smaller. For example if you have a 320 GB you could use a 500 GB but not a 250 GB.

    I have InDesign CS5.5 for 2 systems - my laptop crashed and I now have a new with Windows 8.1.  I downloaded the correct version of InDesign, but when I enter my l series #, the message reades # is valid, but the software cannot be found on the system.  It seems that the program PageMaker 7 which is not on the new computer.  How can I load my InDesign CS5.5 on the new computer laptop?

    If you purchased InDesign CS5.5 as an upgrade then it looks like it's showing that you need to provide information about the old version where you improved since he found nothing that qualifies.  You must only choose the old version and serial number.  (I don't know anything about InDesign, nor how it might relate to PageMaker).

  • Pavilion laptop g7 Image Recovery file copy fails

    Material: G-7 HP laptop

    Operating system: Windows 8

    I bought a laptop Pavilion g7 in December 2012.  The 1 TB HARD disk provided with the laptop started to go bad on me.  After several attempts to "self-repair system" (which didn't) I bought a HD 1 TB Seagate SSHD replacement.  Given that I had no Windows 8 recovery disks, I contacted HP, paid for and sent them to me.

    So now I have a new SSHD, new W8 recovery discs and my laptop.  I replaced the HD and the recovery process according to the instructions of the paper that came with the disc.

    4 percent (in the "Copying files needed for the recovery of the phase of hard drive"), I get an error message:

    Reducer (the error message title)

    Copy the file fails

    From: D:/PRELOAD/votes.14. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

    To: C:/RM/Image/votes.14. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

    Press OK to retry.

    Obviously since I post this topic simply by pressing "OK to retry" did not work.  I turned off the laptop computer and restarted the process of recovery.  I had the same error at the same point above.

    I've read a few other BBs HP and see what people have done this experiment with various laptops, W7 and W8, posted the same question and had useful people respond by posting links and possible corrections.  I clicked on the links, but see not all what actually helps me 1) explain why I get this error message. and (2) what should I do to fix it.

    Appreciate any help anyone can provide, but please break it down Barney style as I am not a computer person.  Seriously, don't joke not on that - I'm weak in terms of technology.

    I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.

    Hello

    The first thing I want you to do is make sure the hard drive is working to do this, follow these steps;

    1 turn on the computer

    2. Select f2 for system diagnostics

    3. Select check disk hard, fast

    What is the result of this test?

    If this test passes means that it is likley to be the CD, I answered several questions like this one, where in fact the disks are corrupt so my Adviser is if your drive hard test passes contact HP and ask them to send a new set of replacement drives for unfortunately it seems problem common were disks do not work.

  • Pavilion p6610: recovery program Restore Points is no longer works after AOL System Mechanic ran on my computer

    I have Pavilion p6610 desktop Win 7 Home premium 64 bit I have cleaned my computer, tune, Defrag, ran MS fixit, ran malware removal, called internet provider for bad connection (buffering, etc.) they said it was a software program interfering with my ability to computers to have full access to the output of my modem , (only 2 bars on the taskbar icon) so I gave in and decided to try the AOL System Mechanic. Ran all the tools last night, then stop. I tried to open documents of MS today (15/10/2015) will not open. Could not open one of my components of the Microsoft Office 2010 Starter program.  Canceled AOL system mechanic. Removed uninstalled from my system.  Tried 3 different restore point dates back to the 27/09/2015.  None worked. Can't use my program of recovery restore point!

    I don't want to have to reformat and start all over again. I thought that AOL Sys.Mech done something in the registry that messed with the start of Microsoft Office 2010 (can't find a more free?) but why we don't joke about my restore points?  I can't restore anything from my computer.  I don't know if something's going to come to work anymore. How can I fix it?

    Thanks for any help you can provide...

    Hi @TY965

    I understand that you are not able to use restore points, and that you are having problems with a certain software factory installed on your HP System. I'm happy to help you with this.

    As a first step, you can try using the Recovery Manager and see if the software is among those available from your original image to install instead of a full factory image installation. See the following document that shows how to do this.

    Computers HP - using Recovery Manager to restore the software and drivers (Windows 7)

    Then, to the question of the restoration of the system, maybe try to use SFC/scannow, as described below. The second page includes more specific details to a problem of system restore.

    Use the File Checker system to repair missing or corrupted system files - support.microsoft.com

    Difficulty: System Restore does not not in Windows 10 / 8 / 7 -thewindowsclub.com

  • System on Pavilion dv9743cl recovery - so it will clear the second hard drive?

    Hi guys. I have a HP Pavilion dv9743cl and it has 2 separate hard drives. I intend to use the system restore to reformat and reinstall Vista, and I was concerned that it would wipe out the second disc as well.

    I looked on the forums, and some posts said that there is a recovery of the system or with Reset option. I do not have this option; I only have the system recovery. Do you know if the rail with it reformatted my second drive? Thank you very much!

    Disconnect the 2nd drive.

  • Pavilion laptop DV4 disk recovery installation issue what would it be?

    I formatted my HARD drive using a bootable floppy to CD (Dariks Boot and Nuke) - who has written on the C and possibly partition D (HP Recovery)... Everything went well with that.

    HP DV4-1543sb

    Original operating system was Win 7

    Laptop 2 years

    1. I then inserted the factory purchased HP disk recovery and booted from it (2 discs and 1 extra drive in the game)
    2. Installation went well with disc 1 that it then prompted me to two disc I did. Subsequently requested the extra disk I inserted.
    3. Once it is installed, it restarted the PC automatically and then start configuring Windows 7 up or at least begun to load (Win 7 was also my original OS).
    4. Process is completed and it still rebooted itself.
    5. Laptop computer loaded a little Windows (an icon appeared) and then suddenly a message saying error has occurred could not finish loading Windows)- or something of this nature
    6. Tried to reinstall and got the same scenario.
    7. Once more I formatted the HARD drive with a full format which took 2 hours.
    8. All that above was repeated with the same results.

    Any suggestions?

    The BIOS may be corrupt and if yes, how can I install a fresh BIOS with no available Windows application.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I suggest to try the following workaround.

    If you have (or can borrow) an installation disc Windows 7 at retail which is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit is the exact retail version, you would need.

    If you do not access to the retail drives, you can create an installation disk yourself - just download good picture disc from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO on a CD blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key Windows located on the underside of your laptop when requested and when the installation is completeuse the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want just a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally delivered with OEM installations.

    Additional drivers, you may need to find from here.

  • Pavilion a705w recovery system

    You want to do a complete system restore before giving the computer to my friend's daughter.  Was told by HP support by phone that there is no disk recovery available for this model.  There is no HP Tools program in the program menu, and the only other option available... by pushing the key F10 repeatedly at boot up... does not work (tried at least a dozen times).  Assistance would be appreciated.  In case it is necessary: Serial # CNC4440HDT; System number: PJ562AA.  Thank you in advance for the support.

    Here is the site to get your recovery disk
