  • Why the HARD disk is partitioned into C & D on Satellite Pro C partition

    Why the HARD drive is divided and how to use it?

    It is important that the one that I use?
    It turns into one big disk?

    The manual says nothing about this.

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    The HARD disk is partitioned and contains two partitions. The C partition is the system partition that contains the Windows operating system. The second D partition contains data drive HARD recovery.
    HARD drive recovery allows you to establish the notebook back to factory settings without the recovery disk usage.

    But it s is strongly recommended to create the recovery disk! The user manual provides the info on that in case something goes wrong with the HARD drive, the recovery disk allows you to recover the laptop.

    Of course, you can delete the D partition if you want to, but before doing so, you must create the recovery disk.

    However, my HARD drive contains 3 partitions. I created an extra. In my case, the C partition contains only system and the unique software. My files private like Mp3, movies, etc. are placed on the D second partition).
    The third partition (E) contains a folder with games.

  • How to recover files from the hard disk recovery partition?

    There are recovery (D) on the hard disk.  How can I recover all my old files and programs of this drive?

    Original title: I changed from Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 operating systems.

    Hello sdf361,

    The recovery partition, that is what you would use to restore your computer when you bought it with the OS on it
    that was pre-installed. It is not your old programs and data on it. You will need to backup your data to restore and install
    your programs since the original installation discs.

    If you do not have the program disk, I suggest that the manufacturer of the computer.

  • How to install the dynamic disk volume and base set

    I have 500 GB of HARD drive.

    How can I convert a 1 and 2 in basic and volume 3 in Dynamics.

    Please tell me something that is free of cost, and I don't want to use a software to do this.

    Hi Lynda,

    I'll be happy to help you with the problem you have with the computer.

    To create a dynamic disk volume, you must convert basic dynamic first of all disks. How to convert the basic dynamic disk?

    1. connect you as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group.

    2. right click on my computer > manage > storage > disk management.

    3. in the lower pane, right-click the basic disk you want to convert, and then click on convert to dynamic disk. You must right-click the gray area that contains the title of the disk on the left side of the details pane.

    Warning: After you convert a disk from a dynamic disk basic, local access to the dynamic disk is limited to editions of Windows Windows 2000 at the latest. In addition, after you convert a disk from basic to dynamic disk, the dynamic volumes cannot be changed to partitions. You must first delete all dynamic volumes on the disk and then convert the dynamic disk to Basic.

    Thank you.

  • Satellite L850 - how to replace a HARD disk recovery partition?

    Hello.

    Toshiba laptop Satellite L850. PSKDGA-02Y012. The original HARD drive has failed in his colleagues even mobile, so we replaced the two HARD drive after you have created a recovery USB. When used to restore the operating system to original status of OOB.

    Simple to shrink the disk HARD C: (partition 2) on the HARD disk, but then how to transfer twhats on the USB (USB recovery stick) back on the HARD drive?

    Thanks for any help.

    Karim...

    Hello karim

    When you buy the notebook you will get it with preinstalled operating system (recovery image). Original recovery image is saved on the HARD disk on the recovery partition.
    Each owner of the laptop has option to make the backup recovery image and create recovery media. It could be the DVD or USB support. You can do this by using preinstalled Toshiba recovery media creator tool.
    This tool will create bootable recovery media that can be used for the installation of original image recovery if there is problem with the installation of image disk HARD recovery or when the drive is defective and must be replaced.

    Where the HARD drive is faulty and should be replaced or the owner of the laptop to upgrade HARD drive, you can install original image created using recovery recovery media (USB). After installing recovery image, you will have the same situation as for the first boot after the purchase of the laptop. With other words notebook will have factory settings again.

    In this case original recovery image is already copied onto the new HARD drive and you will also be able to start the installation of HARD drive recovery. There is therefore no reason to copy a recovery on HARD drive media.
    Please note: installation of HARD drive recovery works with the factory only settings.

    If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

    Good luck.

  • Satellite Pro A300: How to create the recovery disk

    Hello
    I just bought a Satellite Pro A300 with Windows XP.
    I want to know how I can or if I need to create a recovery disk that will reset the machine to its original state.
    The information gives instuctions on how to proceed for the Vista machines, but not for XP.

    I know that I can recover from the hidden partition, but where this is not possible, I wish I could get CD or DVD.
    There is a recovery CD included product that says only: "MS Windows XP" so I guess that it does not include drivers or Toshiba Software?

    Any help appreciated,
    Thank you
    Mick

    Hello

    You have preinstalled software Toshiba TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator?

    Please check this box.
    Using the TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator you can create the recovery disk.

    But if your laptop was already pre-installed with Windows XP and then a Recovery CD or DVD must be included.

    Have you checked all of the items in the box?

  • How to copy the recovery on DVD partition in windows 8?

    Hi, recently I put asus s series laptop with windows 8 installed inside, I don't have a recovery with the laptop instead of this CD, they provided a recovery hard disk partition... and my question is If there is a way to copy this partition recovery for DVD and use it to restore the system at the time of the break... Please help me

    I use ATI regularly for imaging, but I have not tried what you're asking. My guess is that you can use the DVD at any time to restore the drive to the first day (factory condition). But unless you had a failure, either with the operating system or the hard drive, why would restore you the first day? I don't think that someone wakes up in the morning and say: ' Hey, I think I'll put my PC in the way it was the day I bought it, just for fun. ":-)

    I'm only theorizing here, but I would say that in the event of failure, put you in the ATI boot CD, use it to restore the recovery Partition from the DVD to the hard drive (which means probably wipe the disc in the process), reboot to the hard disk, then press what touches 'F' it to begin the action for recovery. Then it would be like a new laptop again.

    Or maybe, with the recovery being bootable DVDs, you would just restore the hard drive directly to him. I don't really know for you; the recovery DVDs only I knew were like that (pick up directly from the DVD), but they were created with a program on the PC/laptop purchase. If you have a spare autour hard drive, you can always test the process to see if it works if you will not have to wait until there is a catastrophic failure, and then find out it doesn't work.

  • How to unlock the encypted disk with Bitlocker on Windows 7 Home Premium?

    Original title: bitlocker drive encryption

    my family win7 premium has been automatically locked by bitlocker drive encryption. I wonder, because it is not available in the home premium. is this a virus? Please someone help me!

    Hello

    Thank you for asking. Let me ask you a few questions to better understand the issue.

    1. have you changed the hard drive of the computer?

    2. using any third-party disk encryption software?

    3. what anti-virus software is installed on the computer?

    4. do you get an error message when you try to access the hard disk?

    I suggest that you run a full scan on the computer by using the Microsoft Safety Scanner and check if the computer is infected with the virus.

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • Satellite U400-22z - how to remove the HARD drive recovery partition

    Hallo,

    My satellite u400-22z came with a big "hdd recovery" folder on the drive hard - yes I know what it does.
    but the unbearably awful version of windows vista that came with the machine made me decide that, in the event of failure of the system, I'm still will not install this failure of the attempt of an operating system.
    So I do not have these data recovery.

    So those ~ 11 GB of junk sitting on my drive is bugging me, I can't delete the folder HDDRecovery, it is somehow protected against deletion.

    How can I work around that?

    Also, is it safe or can I make it safe, to use the small apparently hidden partition (that's recovery also?) I found, which is IIRC ~ 2 GB or larger, for own purposes, without destroying my current installation of windows?

    Thanks in advance,
    Steve

    Hello

    If you have a recovery disk and you do not want to store the folder in hard drive hard disk recovery, you can remove it.

    > I can't remove the folder HDDRecovery, it is somehow protected against deletion.

    Remove you it as you always do to remove all files on your system.

    can someone help me create a recovery for my laptop Hp Pavilion G6 disc - 2330 m

    Windows 7, 64 bit.

    After inserting a dvd, I went to all the programs/maintenance/create a system repair disc

    The system repair disc could not be created

    The parameter is incorrect. (0 x 80070057)

    I posted earlier on my laptop freezing and respondent very late in command. I decided to create a recovery disk but have resulted in this issue.

    Help, please.

    Concerning

    Maury

    I suspect that the operating system on your laptop is probably not an OEM copy because of which the Recovery Manager is not available

    FYI, if the Recovery Manager was available, you can restore (restore your laptop back to the factory State) without the need to create recovery discs. The D:\ disc that is the recovery partition that would help you to do on your laptop.

    Try these steps and see if it works.

    1. click on Start button and type "devmgmt.msc" without the quotes and press ENTER key

    2. right click on the drive D:\ - HP Recovery partition and select Mark Partition Active.

    3. what would give you an alert/prompt, where you must choose Yes brings you to the Recovery Manager screen and restart your computer. You can follow the link that I provided above to start the process of recovery on your laptop.

    Note:

    Please backup your files before recovering on the laptop that it would result in the loss of data.
