  Hello

  There are two options available.

  1. you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the Disk Image correct ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn offerings) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• Pavilion DM4 - 3090 Beats Edition - could not retrieve the BIOS update failed

  Hello everyone.

  I was trhe proud owner of a HP Pavilion dm4-3090 Beats Edition until two days ago, when I updated my BIOS, but I was unable to power on the laptop again. The system simply feeds the button WE and the Wifi (F12), HARD drive turns a bit, DVD player makes a noise and powers of fan on any USB flash drive connected to power system; but only for a period of 1-3 seconds.

   

  
  This process is repeated every 2 to 3 seconds.

  I have vain tried to restore the BIOS from the HARD drive (the HARD drive has not changed, I have still the partition HP_TOOLS in), with key combinations: Windows + B, Windows + P, Windows + Esc, Esc + Fn, Fn + B, Fn + P, four arrows. I also tried to do this via USB flash drive (with UEFI tool provided by HP), put some BIOS downloaded HP in the root and the current, New records and previous USB drive, once again, in vain. The laptop seems forever trying to read the USB key, just it under tension and that's all.

  So my question is if you please tell me what I do wrong and also, is there is another way to try to get it back.

  Thank you very much in advance.

  Resolved to send to a third party service for a reflash BIOS.

  I hope that you don't have to pay for the record

  Since that she may not have properly burn the disc

  correctly

  but the creation of restore disks is a time

  burning and good for making copies

  and even if isn't properly without you probably burn

  know that the rest is bad too

  but once you get the restore disc sent to

  make you a copy for insurance

  and you mine to give a scenario

  My cat scratched the OS disk and

  to reinstall was unnecessary and

  has no luck with it, but now with these

  Windows disk is protected against copying I doubt

  You can make a backup copy

  but once you've made a copy of the restore disk

• I lost my XP restore disc. Is there an alternative out there that I'm able to explore?

  My Dell Vostro 1700 is a few years old and desperately need a HD format.  Problem is I can't find my restore disk.  Dell doesn't seem to have more available XP SP3 discs, and they do not have one alternative that "buy a new virus scanner."  Microsoft can provide me with a restore disc, or can I use any XP installation disc?  My computer has my key product registered on it somewhere so I didn't buy a new one?  I know that this computer is most likely too old to install Windows 7, and I want to save that money for my next purchase of office.

  You have not described any scanner respectable malware, so if you think that your system is afflicted, that I could do this:

  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  Then follow these steps so that we can see what you have now:

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  Msinfo32

  Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the information here.

  There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

  Determine this your XP key information product and write using one or both of these methods:

  http://www.magicaljellybean.com/KeyFinder/
  http://www.gtopala.com/

  Next, you need to find and make a copy of XP that corresponds to your (Home, Pro, MCE, etc.) and find a friend who has a genuine bootable CD or maybe you can buy one on the Internet and to your heart's content, you can reinstall your XP.  I would like to send you one, but I did not practice on the Tablet XP versions.

  It is my belief that you should never have to reinstall XP to fix any problems - you can always remedy.  I've never reinstalled, repaired or used a restore point to resolve any problem XP in my life - and these options will never typed my keyboard or come out of my mouth.  I'm a fixer-upper.

• G6-2240SA Pavilion. Cannot restore to factory State

  Pavilion G6-SS40SA running Windows 8.

  I am using this computer for a friend. Somehow, he managed to get an app out there that ran at the start and led it slows to a crawl as well as internet access to the machine almost useless. In an effort to get rid of him, he tried to restore running. However, the destructive or non-destructive options would work. He received error messages - first ' impossible to reset your PC. A required disk partition is missing ", followed by" the drive where Windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again "." I managed to find the program that has been the cause of the problem and uninstalled. He asked me to prepare the computer to factory State, but unfortunately, it won't work - it starts, warns that all data will be lost and I confirm that I want to go forward. He then appears to start the process, but almost immediately end displays a message indicating that no change has been made. Where should I go from here?

  You should use recovery discs.

  If the recovery partition is not intact, then there is no other way.

  If you don't have the disks, you can get then by calling your country a specific HP support line.

  I found that if it becomes necessary to use time machine to return to an earlier existence to reinstall the iphoto library, if for some reason, you lose lose, then when you try to synchronize your ipad is not recognized by the computer.  So when you try to synchronize the pictures, they are all removed from the ipad and trying to reinstall everything again.

  This may or may not work immediately.  In my case, only half the photos have been installed, and then the error message came that the rest of 9000 can be installed.

  I contacted Apple support team who has made various suggestions.  Subsequently clicking on a photo list in iTunes were all going again and pictures of 9000 then installed.  When I asked the support team what could happen I was told that it was a "glitch".  I don't like seeds they mean that there could be an error in coding somewhere.

  Here me again.  I use an iMac and iPad.  I don't know why XP and iPhone came.

  Finally, it is important to respect the requirements and installation steps to install Windows 7 and older versions on your Mac with Boot Camp. The installation steps are unique depending on whether it is a new installation of Windows 7 or an upgrade installation of Windows 7.

• Error message when you try to use Toshiba Disc Creator

  I recently upgraded to Vista SP1 SP2 and now I get an error message when I try to use Toshiba Disc Creator 2.0.1.3. "An unexpected error has occurred. Error code 32007C-26-00000001 "it worked perfectly before.

  This is the first time that I used it since the update so I think that SP2 may be part of the problem, but I'm not sure. I could not find updates for TDC. My system is a Satellite L305-S5919 with Vista 32 bit.
  Someone has an idea of what could be the cause of this error?
  Thank you

  Have you tried to roll back the OS in time and checking the previous features once again, just to be sure, it has something to do with the installation of SP2?

  I put t know if anyone here can offer a solution but I m quite pessimistic in this topic and don t think that Toshiba provide new version.
  AFAIK Toshiba disc creator is always available with single and also downloadable image recovery application.
