HP dv 5000 2000: factory restore to win 8

• HP 2350eo p6: I can't understand how successfully do a factory restore on my win 8-> computer 8.1

  I tried to do a factory restore, and it just doesn't work. I can't start to the top of the recovery screen.
  I tried restarting and pressing F11. Because Windows is not normally start, he's clearly trying to do what I want it to, but it does not work. I tried once to leave it for an hour and everything I've seen on a black screen. I also tried to boot via the Recovery Manager. I tried to create a USB stick recovery. First of all, I created the USB through recovery manager. Then I rebooted and held of the ESC. Then, I started the USB key. Nothing happened.

  When I turned off the computer and started it again, as long as I don't push any button, windows would start as normal, up to this point.

  Given that HP tools could not solve the problem, I tried to restore through the windows, the standard method, I suppose, by selecting Properties on the right sidebar. Computer properties, then update/restore, restore, remove and install windows. When I tried, the computer restarted and I got a black screen again, but now, I can not even start Windows more. He answers when I press ESC while booting, but I can not to initiate anything.

  I just wanted to make a simple factory restore and now my computer is dead. Where should I go from here?

  My computer is a HP Pavilion 2350eo with Windows 8.1 p6, it was packed with 8 victory, but a few months after asking me about upgrading a few times, somehow forced the update windows update. My hard drive is almost full at the time, so I don't know if my problem is related to a bad 8.1 Win install. It seems very pulled by the hair.

  I was able to understand.

  I pressed ESC while booting. So, rather than starting the real usb, I chose run Application Uefi, and then I was able to browse the actual usb (which I did before) and select an individual file to run. I do not know which file I got, but I was able to run one of the files, that triggered the factory reset.

  So my problem seems similar to when you enter a CD in windows, and it's not autorun.

  The control panel is not where you go to restore factory settings.  You should consult your computer user guide because the procedure is different for each computer brand and model.

  Good luck.

• Satellite A660 Factory Restore problems

  I have a Satellite A660 Ref. PSAW3A-14V062 delivered pre-installed with Win 7 not provided, but a hidden partition with disk recovery files.

  Decided to do a restore to factory from scratch but ends of disk errors. Removed the HD and connected to another computer.

  Using Acronis Disk Director, I copied the hidden partition (HDDRECOVERY) to another drive and then formatted the drive and copied the partition hidden in it and reinstalled to the laptop.
  Downloaded an ISO image and tried to install it from DVD but received the message that windows cannot be installed on the HARD disk that the drive is about to fail.

  Bought new HARD drive and copied the partition hidden for her.
  I then tried to install from the DVD, but kept getting errors about unable to find files, after ISO more several downloads and burn 5 different DVD the furthest I got was the screen where it is "files", this remains at 0% and nothing else.

  I then tried a factory restore using the "hold 0 during startup", but when I took out the key pressed 0 when the Toshiba start screen showed that nothing happened.

  There was a small Partition 'System' on the original HARD drive I have has not copied. I have a few questions.

  (1) the "System" partition did not the files needed to start the factory restore and if so is there anywhere I can download these files?

  (2) probably a topic for another thread, but no clue as to why I have so many problems with ISO files.

  Cheers and sorry for the long-winded explanation.

  The installation of any recovery is quite complicated. It is designed to avoid a kind of manipulation so original recovery image can be installed either using recovery DVDs or HARD disk recovery facility which must be created with Toshiba recovery disc creator tool.

  To be honest, the whole story is complicated enough, but what confuses me, is
  > Decided to do a restore to factory from scratch but ends of disk errors
  If I understand you right, you have created a drive recovery, right? What exactly happens?
  You can use this drive with new HARD drive?

  This method with files recovery to cope with the new HARD drive does not work. You will not be able to access and begin HARD recovery disk image installation.

  If you have a new HDD only how to install the original Toshiba recovery image is to use the recovery DVD disc.

  Hello

  If you have no recovery Partition, probably your best option is to order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - I think that these are about $16 if you live in the United States.  This will be not only to restore the operating system, but will also install all software comes with laptop original and recreates the recovery on the HARD drive Partition

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00810334

  If you have a problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

  If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

• Edge 14 "questions making factory restore from Windows 8 consumer overview

  My edge initially provided with Windows 7, and I created a USB drive recovery using the tool supplied with the laptop. Last year, I put Windows 8 preview of consumers about it. Now, Windows 8 license has expired and I don't want to upgrade to the professional version. So I tried to do a factory restore. I tried:

  1. start > enter > I can't see F11 here, there're only ESC, F1 and F12 to choose.

  2. plug USB Recovery > start > enter > F12 > I see my USB in the list > select and enter > system continue to start with Win 8.

  3. Similarly, choose F1 to enter BIOS, put my USB on the top of the boot order list > save and restart with connected USB > system continue to start with Win 8.

  The content of my usb looks like: usb.tag / winRE.wim / Boot folder (283.9 M in total). It's called imation, 1 G.

  I wonder what I can try to take the step of recovery plant. Any help will be great!

  I solved this problem by creating the boot on CD instead. Then start successfully from the CD instead of USB.

  the only problem is that I got an error "you can have only one copy of the Microsoft Windows operating system." The product Recovery Media Creator will leave now. "because I previously created the recovery on a USB key. Follow this post to continue:

• Factory restore

  I recently inherited a MacBook Pro. It runs on Mac OS X Version 10.6.4 Intel Core 17. In my view, that it was made in 2010.

  It will not update the operating system. Otherwise, it works great. I was told to hold the r/control/power button will restore the system, but it did not work. I believe that the factory restore will solve the problem of update, but I don't know how to do this.

  Before purchasing a used computer, you must have run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, whichever is applicable.

  The first thing to do after the acquisition of the computer is to wipe the internal drive and install a new copy of Mac OS X. You - not the original owner, must do. Changes made by Apple over the years have made this very complex seemingly simple task.

  How would you do it depends on the model, and if you already have another Mac. If you are not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then, find the model on this page to see which version of the OS was initially installed.

  It is dangerous and may be illegal to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.

  1. If you do not have another Mac

  a. If the machine comes with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a Snow Leopard install disc (OS X 10.6) retail boxed and "Shrink Wrap" on the Apple Store or a reputable dealer - no eBay or something of the sort. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you need to add in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory can take, according to the technical specifications.

  (b) if the machine comes with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that accompanies it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received the media of the original owner, but if you do not, order replacements from Apple. A disc at retail, or the gray discs of another model, will not work.

  To start from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, and then restart the computer and hold the C key to start ringing. Release the button when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.

  c. If the machine comes with OS X 10.7 or later version, you don't need media. It should start in the mode of Recovery of the Internet when you hold down the key combination option-command-R to start ringing. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe. Note that Mac Pro models turn over end of 2014 (with the box of "cheese grater") cannot use Internet recovery, regardless of what version of OS they shipped with. The Mac Pro round (2014 or later) can use it.

  d. some models 2010-2011 comes with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, allowing them to use Internet recovery. If you have one of these models, you cannot reinstall 10.6 even from the original media, and recovery of the Internet won't work either without Apple ID of the original owner, in this case, contact Apple technical supportor take the machine to an Apple Retail Store or other authorized service provider to have an operating system installed.

  2. If you do not have another Mac

  If you already have another Mac which has been upgraded in the App Store to the version of Mac OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use the recovery disk wizard to prepare a USB device, and then starts the new Mac of it by pressing the C key to start ringing. Alternatively, if you have a backup of OS X Time Machine 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a time Capsule or other network device), you can start by holding down the option key and clicking in the row of icons that is displayed. Note that if your other Mac has never updated in the App Store, you can not use this method.

  3 partition and install OS X

  a: If you see a lock screen trying to boot from the support installation or recovery mode, then a firmware password has been defined by the previous owner, or the machine was locked remotely via iCloud. You will need to either contact the owner or by the machine to an Apple Retail Store or other provider of service to be unlocked. May asked you proof of ownership.

  b. launch disk utility, and then select the internal drive icon - no volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a partition table GUID with the volume of data in Mac OS extended (journaled) format. This permanently deletes all existing data on the disk.

  c. an unusual problem can occur if all the following conditions apply:

  OS X 10.7 or later version has been installed by the previous owner

  The boot volume has been encrypted with FileVault

  You start in recovery mode (that is, not of a 10.6 disk installation)

  In this case, you will not be able to unlock the volume or partition the drive without the FileVault password. Ask for advice or see this discussion of the CSA.

  d. after partitioning, quit disk utility and run the OS X Installer. If you install a version of OS X was acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password you used. When the installation is complete, the system reboots automatically in the Migration Wizard, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have all the data to be transferred, it is usually the best time to do it.

  e. run the software update and install all available Apple system updates. To upgrade to a major version of Mac OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can not keep an improved version that was installed by the first owner. He or she cannot legally transfer to you, and without the Apple ID, you will be able to update in a software update or reinstall, if it becomes necessary. Is the same for all App Store products that the previous owner installed, you will need to buy.

  4. other issues

  a. If the original owner "accepted" bundled iLife (iPhoto, iMovie and Garage Band) applications in the App Store so that he or she could put up-to-date, IRREVOCABLY linked to that Apple ID and you can download them without having to buy them. Reportedly, the Mac App Store Customer Service sometimes issued codes of reimbursement for these applications to second owners who asked.

  (b) if the previous owner has not Deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you will not be able to authorize immediately under your username. In this case, you will have either to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

  c. When you try to create a new iCloud account, you could get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a limit of life of three configurations by device iCloud account. Erasure of the unit does not reset the limit. You can always use iCloud account that was created on another device, but you will not be able to create a new. Contact iCloud Support for more information. Configuration limit does not apply to the Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as iTunes and Mac App Store or iMessage. You can create as many accounts you want.

• Pavilion all-in-one Q214 23: factory restore on the new HP Pavilion all in one computer

  I have a week 6 old Pavilion Desktop all-in-one.  I wanted to do a factory install on it because I had a lot of extra things that I don't want anymore, I installed and I thought what a factory restore would be better.  I went to the HP Recovery Manager and no where in the choices he said 'factory restore '.  He used to have this option in the HP recovery environment.  I checked all the options and nothing on the factory restore.  I made a set of recovery discs, but I always remember that HP still had the opportunity to do a factory restore.  I have tried F11 and F8 and no luck.

  Answers or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum. Welcome!

  According to the model of the computer, it can not be called exactly the HP system recovery but if your computer is originally shipped with Windows preinstalled 10, recovery partition must be present.

• For Satellite C660 factory restore

  I installed windows 7 pro on my laptop which made my longer laptop for start and stop time down and little slow. now I just want to go back to the factory restore, how can I do this. the pre-installed recovery partition is not show in "my computer".

  Thank you very much

  You cannot start after installation of operating system HARD drive recovery clean facility more.
  You can do this via recovery DVD only.

  Did you create this disc by following the advice of Toshibas rappelling recovery or document s user manual?

  If you have this drive please use it for recovery image installation. If you n t have it you have a big problem today.

• Can I update the image of factory restore?

  Hi all

  I recently had the pleasure to make a 'factory restore' on a M100 and an A300.

  While the process went smoothly (even if the A300 recovery disk creator should not be put back first to make it work), data that has been restored were, of course, obsolete because he didn't understand not updates either the operating system (Vista Home Basic) or to one of the Toshiba Software (including drivers and tools utility).

  I know that you can return the system to Toshiba for a new image of the HARD drive by them (at great cost), but I don't know if that provides a picture of 'update' or if she simply replaces the original image (obsolete).

  Is it possible the 'factory restore' image stored on the recovery partition can be updated and a user, or a technician of the 'non-Toshiba"without having recourse to external software such as Acronis?

  Thanks in advance for all advice offered.

  Hey Buddy,

  No, you can update the image of factory restore t. Settings (Windows, driver, etc.) are stored in an image that can t be changed or updated because these settings are pre-tested on your laptop computer and any change would be not compatible. In addition, I think that Windows updates are made with two or three clicks, you need just to a good internet connection. Alternative, you install Microsoft's latest Service Pack which contains many important updates ;)

  By the way: I made my own image using Acronis image. After the installation of recovery disk Toshiba I removed all applications that I n t need (ConfigFree for example), installed the Windows updates and my other apps that I need (Skype, Office, etc.). After that, I tested the laptop a bit and finally and especially that I created an image with Acronis. So I can restore my own settings every time too. ;)

• On Satellite A105 - S2131 factory restore

  I have a series of Toshiba Satellite A105 - S2131. I'm in the need to do a factory restore, but I don't have a restore disc, because I never saw when I got the computer, and when I tried to create a floppy disk to the computer that it does, I get an error that says in cannot find the file to create the disc. Now I don't know what I can do to make the factory restore.

  Any help would be great.

  Thank you

  Hello

  For me, there is a clear situation you need to order the new recovery media by the nearest authorized service provider.
  But you have another way to get own laptop preinstalled, use CD original Microsoft facilities. All the drivers, tools and utilities, you can find and download from Toshiba support site.

• K1 "unrecoverable error bootloader (0 x 19000008) after the factory restore".

  Having some problems with my K1 for a while & finally decided to do a factory restore and start over. Fact the factory restore (exactly like I had to with my android phone a couple of weeks) & now he jumped to the top with

  «Erase Userdata...»

  Boot loader fatal error (0 x 19000008)

  He sat there for a while. I tried to hold the power button, but nothing. This tablet has been updated to the latest version, it has not rooted or anything else. Just completely factory & updated. The problems I had when I decided to restore it was running mostly just super slow. Took forever to get the apps to arrive on the screen & such things. Thought I just having too much junk previously installed on it, so I tried to restore it & start over. Bad idea! Any idea? My 2 weeks im slammed all day every day & cant slow to call assistance & wait always hold to try & fix it (assuming that they can even repair). Would be delighted to hear that its an easy fix but I'm sure used to be the case. I bought it back in November 2011, so its only 6 months old.

  Hi Javahead

  How many times have you tried to restart since this error?

  Recently, I did the same thing after that my front cam went wrong. I got the same error. But after a few reboots and maybe wait a few minutes before trying again. Finally, he went through the process and completed successfully.
