  • Win7 recovery without recovery disks

    Being a little crazy I ignored the guests to "make the backup disks.

    Ive deleted the original installation of windows 7 for windows 8, but after finding problems with some games of win8 I wish I could put win7 on it

    My hard drive still has the recovery partition, but by pressing f11 at the bios screen does nothing

    is there anyway to recover my pc to the original without recovery disks configuration?

    Hello:

    If you are not willing or able to purchase recovery discs, you can reinstall windows 7 using this method, as long as you can read your 25-character windows product key 7:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • HP Pavilion Dv6 7078 CA recovery without recovery disk

    Hello!! I have a Hp Pavilion Dv6 - 7078ca, and after only 6 months of use, the hard drive just died.

    because I live in the Brazil and brought the computer home, I could not use the mandate, given that the mandate is for canada only.

    So I changed my own HARD drive for one on exactly the same model he had, but to my surprise, when I used the recovery media that I had made, the DVD have been corrupted, so I coudnt get it by using the recovery media.

    I tried to install windows 7 Home premium (the one provided with the laptop), but there's a hardware incompatibility, so I couldn't install the drivers of it.

    and the worst problem is: I can't control even other media recovery, because even if I ask them for some friends to the Canada, so this friend comes for me, HP Canada Web site does not accept international credit cards.

    so, my question is, anyone know if I am able to restore my computer without this recovery media? If so, how can I do?

    Thank you!!

    Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion dv6 - 7078 Entertainment Notebook computer ca. According to the specification, this model comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit installed at the factory. This is HP software and driver downloads page for your computer.

    If the PC cannot access the Windows desktop, and the Recovery Manager cannot be started by selecting the f11 at startup key, you can use either the recovery disc custom that you created, or you can order a recovery CD to replace HP, to boot the PC and restore the hard drive to its original operating state.

    2. When prompted, Press any key to boot from the CD or DVD, press any key on the keyboard.
    3. Leave the recovery disk boot and load the files required, while the Microsoft loading screen appears. It may take several minutes to load the required files.

  • How to install Vista from the recovery disk without defining partitions?

    Hello

    I have my recovery disk and I have installed a new 320 gb HHD.
    When I installed the recovery disc, it re done the 160 GB partitions in each (2 partitions more the 1 recovery partition)...

    But I want to dual boot with XP pro because of software problems and I prefer it sometimes...
    I redid my scores, 1 - 51 GB for XP pro(32bit), 2nd - 51 GB for vista (32 gb) and the 3rd - 210 gb is for storage

    How to install with Toshiba vista o/s and stuff that comes with it on the recovery disc, immediately to the 2nd partition without affecting how I configure the hard drive...

    I have about 100 GB of photos, music, and cam vids on storage, with nowhere to put them, so I can't risk, because some are copy only (so it might be a good idea to let me know how I save this s on my storage spread in the DVD please)

    If I can t, then can some1 please tell me how to get my Toshiba OEM vista off this recovery disk or a link for me?

    Hope all this makes sense lol... Thank you
    Shane

    If you have so much important material best save is to buy an external HARD drive and copy all this stuff here. I recommend buying the small 2.5 external HDD and when necessary, you can take with you and connect to any computer, if you want to view or copy this file. External hard discs connected to other computers with a supplied USB cable.

    Return to your partitions.
    When you use the original Toshiba DVD facilities, you will have 3 partitions.
    WinRE - partition and it belongs to the Vista operating system. This partition is not visible, and this isn't some sort of Toshiba recovery partition
    -C for Vista partition
    Or-d/E to the DATA in the partition. This partition is recorded recovery image in the folder called HDDRecovery
    I don't know what model of laptop you have, but this configuration is on all new Toshiba laptops shipped WITHOUT recovery media.

    Using Toshiba recovery media, you will be able to get exactly mentioned structure of the partitions. Support to recovery facilities using you WILL NOT be able to install Vista on the second partition.

    So if you want to have the dual boot with Windows XP Home edition, you can do following:
    -At first, you are going to install Vista with support of recovery and on the second partition, you are going to install your version of Windows XP Home edition
    -At first you will be installing WXP and then you can install Vista on the second partition, but you must use the Microsoft facilities drive. Recovery media can not be used.

    That's all I can say from my experience with such things.

  • How to install Vista on Satellite A300 without recovery disk?

    Please, I desperately need help.

    My brother bought a new Toshiba A300-23F in Saudi Arabia. He has little knowledge of computers.
    It's on the screen threre.

    He sent it to my father in Pakistan but quickly noticed it was full of viruses and it installed fresh Windows xp SP2 after formatting hard drive.

    He gave me to fix the problem. Because it is designed for windows vista. I want to install windows vista, but I do not have the disk recovery or operating any drive.

    How am I suppose to install windows vista?
    Someone told me that I have download the vista track and enter the key that is on the back of my laptop.

    Anyone with an idea. Please

    > He sent it to my father in Pakistan but quickly noticed it was full of viruses and it installed fresh Windows xp SP2 after formatting hard drive.

    It was a big mistake buddy
    The recovery disk is not shipped with the laptop because he had a tool preinstalled called creator Toshiba Recovery disk that allows you to create a clean recovery disc.
    But this is not possible because the HARD disk has been formatted and all files have been deleted.

    Now, you would not be able to recover the camera even using HARD drive recovery because the files are not available on the HARD disk.

    You need a recovery disk, and you can order it here:

  • How to recover the Satellite A100 without recovery disk

    Hi all

    I'm trying to restore my laptop A100 settings * without * a restore CD via pressing a sequence of buttons during startup (which must launch the recovery on the hard drive partition).

    It is really unfortunate, I know it can be done as I did before butI for the life of me forgotten what was this key sequence I can't find the article I stumbled initially on!

    I've scoured the web looking for this key sequence and all the proposed solutions, I fell on do not seem to work.

    Unsuccessful attempts so far:
    -Press and hold 0 power
    -various suggest 'F' keys: F1, F8, F10
    -now the delete key

    Note: I guess it may be worth mentioning that pressing F8 actually take me on-screen "start options advanced windows" but I don't have any recovery options.

    Yeh Yes, I'd * extremely * grateful if someone could point me in the right direction here because it makes me crazy... the fact that I've done this before, it that much worse!

    > I'm trying to restore my laptop A100 to the factory without the recovery CD settings via pressing a sequence of buttons during startup (which must launch the recovery on the hard drive partition).

    As I know the A100 series has not been fitted with the recovery of HARD drive partition!
    And so I doubt that any combination of keys will start the partition recovery!

    So you only chance to recover the laptop is to take the recovery disk, then boot from it.
    You can also try to install the disk Microsoft Windows operating system and then could install the drivers of Toshiba on the pilot site of Toshiba!

  • Satellite L550D-13V - how to recover without recovery disks?

    Hello

    I had a big problem. Win 7 Home Premium 64 BIT crashed on my satellite L550D-13V.

    I tried to fix it, but it does not work. So I decided to recover via HARD disk utility.
    Everything seems to be okay, but ultimately the tool said that errors have occurred. I tried to get it back again, but the process aborted with blue screen "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA" this time.

    After reboot system told me that no bootmgr is available. I tried to start using the recovery disk, but it also seems to be defective because the system cannot boot from the disks.

    And there is my problem. I cannot start / retrieve now. Volume D seems to be OK - the HARD disk utility files are still available, but I can't create a new recovery disks and it is not possible to start in disk utility.

    You have any ideas?

    Thanks in advance and best regards
    Danny

    Hello

    The story is strange
    I m wondering why you are not able to boot from the recovery disc?
    Have you used the recovery disk created in the past or have you tried this drive for the first time?

    However, with regard to the error message: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
    I googled for that and it sounds like it could be linked to the fault memory.
    Perhaps one of the failures modules.

    Of course, this is just a personal opinion

    If a HARD drive folder is available on your HARD drive, then there is a small chance of getting the recovery of HARD drive to work. Here's an interesting thread:
