• HP Pavilon17 - Question of recovery of the D:

  Hello again.  I have 2 questions 1 is probably stupid... but you know the old saying... "no question is stupid" or something along that line. :

  1. my D: Recovery shows 2.59 GB free of 25.6 GB.  I guess the 25.6 GB is all the HP stuff put on the computer before delivery and the information used to create a recovery disk, correct?  That do with the 2.55 GB free so be it.

  2. it is not a question of recovery, but I need an answer because it drives me crazy.  Sometimes I get a small box that contains the following information: Adobe Flash play setting Local storage... includes the address of the web site and an application to allow or deny the addition of KB to my computer.  What is this and how can I do?  I do not recognize the address of the site.  If I do not need this thing, can it be disabled and how?

  1 do you think is the so-called stupid issue, or both.

  Thank you.

  Another question: what is a recovery partition?

  To answer your last question above. A recovery partition (D:\Recovery on your machine) contains all of the files to reinstall the OS original and all the drivers/software-PC Restore laptop back to factory settings. It can also be used to reinstall the drivers or software if you accidentally delete something, and then later decide you want or need it.

  Created from the files of recovery disks can also be used to reinstall to factory, but takes a little longer to complete recovery partition installation. More big difference is that the discs can be used if your laptop does not boot from the hard disk partition. It also lets you install a new disk hard if you need to replace the drive home due to the failure.

  Reinstall only drivers/software: Windows 8

  W/system recovery disks or the recovery partition: Windows 8

• HP ENVY dv6 Notebook PC - DELETED the RECOVERY PARTION

  Hello

  • I have a HP ENVY dv6 Notebook PC with a product number of C4V06EA #ABU
  • It came with windows 8 is installed

  I've upgraded to 8.1 windows however after several months I decided the format my laptop to an earlier version of windows which has windows 7.

  When you install windows 7 I formatted my hard drive and the recovery partition and merged the two drives to make a.

  SOMETHING I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND ANYONE TO DO IF THIS READING FOR ADVICE!

  So with windows 7 installed on my laptop, I had several problems with drivers and so on.

  I would like to return to the settings of factory/how I got it on the shop however I never had any backup DVD and now have more HP support or HP recovery installed on my laptop. And considering that I deleted the recovery partition I don't know what my options are.

  I tried;

  My partner also has a HP laptop - I tried to create the recovery disks to recover within the HP program but trying on my laptop he advises me that this isn't for my laptop.

  I tried to download the drivers for windows 7 via HP supports however the drivers for my laptop are only for windows8 or 8.1

  -----------------------------

  Question time!

  Can I get a copy of the recovery disks without having to pay?

  Even if I did, because I deleted the partion will recover this work?

  Can HP give me my key for windows 8 installed on my laptop?

  -----------------------------

  This is a great laptop and I can't use it even it is a little over 1 year also!  I contacted HP support by phone and I can not even any medium without having to pay a ridiculous tax, something I can't afford a student.

  I would be very grateful for all the advice and help on what my options are here!

  Hello:

  You would have to pay the recovery disks command for your model from the link below.  What about 37.

• Question on recovery disc HARD on NB200 - 10 p

  Hey guys, I need your help.

  I installed Windows 7 on my NB200 - 10 p, but it has messed up the recovery. After having tried like 100 times to run the recovery and return to XP, nothing worked and I wiped the partition tables of HARD drive with the idea of installing XP Professional which I own, but loading the installation program displays only the USB and it does not recognize the HARD drive. I had done a backup to a folder named a? Hddrecoverya? that contains the wim for default windows files (checked with 7-ZIP and they contain all the default drive C :).) I copied on a USB key and he ran, but the recovery is stuck on "waiting for odd vacancies...." ».

  So my question is how to make a USB bootable from the files I have on my HARD drive and run the recovery? Can someone also make a screenshot of the default C:, D: partition table and the recovery partition so I can recreate it?

  http://WinToFlash.com/

  This utility will make a bootable USB key and install a copy of XP on the thumb drive. Let us know if it worked.

  As an alternative, you can download a Microsoft utility that will do the samething for Windows 7 (but not XP). I had more success to get Windows 7 to install from a USB I have with trying to get XP to install from a USB key. Although Windows 7 is not quite able to do all the things that XP can do, it's the wave of the future. XP won't ultimately be supported by Microsoft, and so we can get with the program and start using Windows 7.

  Moreover, Toshiba has released a utility that works something like the fact of Microsoft Update, but the Toshiba updates for netbooks using Widnows 7 (again not for XP, Windows 7 only). It will you check netbook, and then download and install all the updates it has for your particular netbook.

  Let us know what you did and how it worked.

• Satallite L50-C-1FR - Question on recovery media

  I recently bought a laptop Satallite L50-C-1FR. I deleted and added many applications. I used the Recovery Media Creator to make recovery DVD. During the process of textual information said that there is a recovery image on the hard drive. This is not specified, it is how to work my three DVD. They are independent from the image on the hard drive? Furthermore, I made these DVD after making a lot of changes for installed applications.

  Is the recovery media I did register these changes?

  When you buy the notebook you will get preinstalled with recovery image (factory settings). This recovery image is also recorded on the HARD drive and when you create recovery discs this image will be copied onto disks.

  Please note: all applications available to you also will not be part of the package.

  One day, when you want to have factory settings again please use the created disks and reinstall the recovery image. Of course, start with number 1 DVD and when necessary (display message) placed second or third DVD in ODD and continue the recovery image installation.

• A few questions about recovery on P100-400

  Good evening everyone,

  I have a few questions on the recovery of my laptop...

  So I thought that if the only way to clean my entire drive is to use the recovery DVDs?
  I ask this question because I think the computer becomes too 'heavy' applications, with which he came. So I was wondering if I can format the hard drive rather than get it back.

  If I format the drive I lose warranty? Is there any future problem with genuine software?
  It is possible to install Windows XP Pro (and not the real windows xp media center) with the original operating system product key?

  Thank you.
  Best regards.

  Hello

  I'll try to give you some answers and I hope this will help you.

  I don't understand what you mean I can format the hard use rather than retrieve it but you can follow: install OS using delivered support recovery and after having done this remove all applications, you do not need. After that it maybe your laptop won't be heavy more.

  > If I format the drive I lose warranty?

  N ° something like this is not possible. Product key belongs to the livery and pre-installed with the OS.

• Question about recovery CD

  Hello world

  I have a Toshiba satellite M30 and it comes with 2 recovery CD (CD 1/2 & 2/2). Unfortunately, one of the CD is damage and no longer works. My question is, first of all, how can I get the new recovery CD. I hope you tell me exactly who to contact here on Toshiba site or please copy - paste the link to people who can help me.

  Secondly, is it possible to have the recovery CD copied to a flash drive to avoid damaging the CDs are likely to suffer? Finally, it is necessary to use the same CD provided with there laptop or I can use the CD to other types of laptop Toshiba to my friends?

  Joe, UNITED KINGDO, COLCHESTER.

  Hello

  1. new media for recovery, you can order by the authorized service partner. The addresses you can find on Toshiba European page http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com under Support & downloads > find an authorized service provider.

  2. the recovery image is large enough and I don't think that you can save it to the flash drive. By the way: you can not start flash drive and because of that it's a bad idea. After the configuration of the entire computer, best solution is to create the own image using Norton ghost software. The image is created, you can record on CD, DVD, or even on the second partition (I do). On this way you can always have it by you.

  3. you may not use another recovery CD. Each image is designed for the specific cell phone model. You can simply use the facilities Microsoft CD and install all the drivers and all the stuff only Toshiba subsequently.

  Good bye

• Question on recovery for Satellite A300-15 b DVD

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300-15 b, bought almost 2 months of age. I created a DVD using Toshiba Recovery DVD Creator, as mentioned in the manual recovery. The question is, I created this months DVD 2 when buying and I used Notepad for this period. My recovery disk would be identical to a recovery disk created just after the purchase?

  Content of my recovery disk doesn't include any setup I see makes me think I could you created a wrong. Can I use this disc to re - install Vista assuming that I am currently using Windows XP?

  And how many recovery disks are required for this model of Toshiba? I have only one.

  Thank you for your time and your consideration.

  Kind regards..

  > My recovery disk would be identical to a recovery disk created just after the purchase?
  The recovery image is always the same. When you use the laptop will have always the same configuration, the same that you got after it for the first time.

  > Content from my recovery disc doesn't include any setup I see makes me think I could you created a fake. Can I use this disc to re - install Vista assuming that I am currently using Windows XP?
  Because the installation cannot be started under the BONE, or in a sort of DOS mode, there is no setup.exe. Just put the recovery in the optical disc drive disk, start your portable computer, press F12, choose the CD/DVD drive, press ENTER and follow the menu on the screen. You can now use what you want. After the use of DVDs, you'll plant more recovery settings, even you got after it for the first time.

  > The recovery discs how are needed for this model of Toshiba?
  This issue is understandable to me. It usually depends on media that you use to create a recovery media. Simply follow the instructions for Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. It may be that you need two DVD-R virgins.

  Do you have more questions?

• Question about Recovery Media Creator

  Hello everyone, first of all, I don't know if this should be in this category, but I thought it would be best to post in.

  My question is about the progress of the Recovery Media Creator. I was about to create the recovery DVD and I noticed that there are several support options for recovery (Recovery Media recovery media 3 1).

  My question is, what are the differences between them? No matter if I only check one of them, so I need less DVD or smaller USB?

  Thanks in advance.

  PS Excuse my grammar or bad explanation if there is no error.

  Hello

  As much as I know there is no difference between the to 3 1 recovery media recovery media.
  This info shows you ONLY the quantity of disks required.
  If you create a recovery using a DVD media, you might have more than one DVD disc.
  In case you create USB recovery media, you won't have many different memory USB flash keys.

• Question on recovery satellite M50-176

  Hello world
  I have a Satellite M50-176 and I'm unable to get into windows, and I think that I have to restore the OS files.
  I have three CD/DVD toshiba dated 2005 (the recovery disk, media express recovery CD and CD extra software).
  I don't want to completely format/erase the hard drive, but I need all the files that I so want to do just a restore.
  Thanks for the attention and help!

  Published by: ADMIN on May 25, 2008 08:05

  Hello

  The restore CD contains the image of Toshiba file.
  This file is a package and it contains the OS Win, Toshiba drivers, utility tools and additional software. Simply said that it contains everything that was preinstalled on your computer.

  The express recovery CD media contains the Express Media Player and other software CD contains tools and drivers.

  What you need is the recovery CD. It will set your notebook back to factory settings.
  If you want to use the standard recovery option then the whole HARD disk will be formatted.

  But there should also be an expert recovery option. This option would be to format only partition on the HARD drive.

  In your case, I would use the recovery expert option.

  Best regards

• Question about recovery disks

  Hello everyone, Im a person retired and new to computers and the forums. My question is, when, where and why the recovery discs are used? My L series has 2 of them. Thanks for any help.

  Post edited by: pcramer1

  Hello

  Badhat wrote the very good display, but here's my little additional explanation:

  Each computer will be used with operating system. Operating system is just part of the system that works well. Preinstalled OS must have good communication with all available hardware components. For this reason, for each material single component must be installed right driver. OS with the drivers can work well, but this isn't the end of the story. Toshiba offers many additional functions for keys, power control and so on. For this Toshiba application offer and install the additional tools and utilities.

  As you can see the preparation of BONE can be quite complicated for people without good knowledge of PC. To avoid this Toshiba prepare all this. People who work in the service of software install OS on certain model of laptop, install the necessary drivers al, tools, utility and software additional (anti-virus software) and create the image of the recovery of it. Recovery image is a kind of fingerprint of the stuff all pre-installed so when you use image recovery everything installs correctly and when installation is complete, you will be able to use the laptop immediately without spending your time to configure anything. This condition is also called if the factory settings.

  In the past, that Toshiba has delivered equipped laptops of recovery disc in the box of you, but in recent years the recovery image is saved on the HARD disk and each owner of the laptop must / should create recovery disks only. It can be done using an application preinstalled called creator of recovery disk Toshiba.

  Take care of your disks. You can use hem many times and without limits every time when something is a crew up and you want to have own OS preinstalled and use the laptop with the factory settings.

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.
