HP Pavilion DV8el Entertainment recovery and disk partitioning C

Someone must have done this before, but I can't find anything...

I had to replace the C drive of bad sectors, and now the recovery disks that I had done three years ago crash with a blue screen on the partitioning of the disk.

Nothing can be installed via that * beep * discs (i.e. of the news because I've never used it before!)

I get clean up a ghost image of the entire disk C (it has been corrupted), the partition partition, so I really want to use it to recover my configurations and software. But I don't know how to do this without going through the ununseable recovery disks.

The problem seems to be that Ghost is looking for the four original scores and since he can't find them he does not know where to install the data C... Can I manually partition C? I have a Mint 13 Linux system on a bootable USB, so I can ride and the C format, I just need to know HOW (HIDDEN FAT32, NTFS,...) and what size/flags to give partitions...

I hope someone can help! Thanks 1million, Gabriele

I understand that you need to restore the software from your system after replacing the HARD drive.

You mentioned that you have a ghost image.  Are you referring to Norton Ghost?  If so, what version of Ghost was used to make the image?

If you don't have a ghost, this thread may be useful for you.

http://community.Norton.com/T5/other-Norton-products/how-do-I-restore-ghost-image-to-a-new-hard-drive/TD-p/540018

In addition, this document covers restoring a Ghost image on a new disk using Ghost 15.

I suspect that the process is similar for other versions of Ghost.  Once I have the exact version of Ghost, I'm able to find something more specific to your version of Ghost.

  • System recovery HARD disk partition

    Hello

    I have an ASUS P50IJ laptop computer with a partition for operating system for most of my things (download, photos, etc.) and a DATA partition for the system recovery. I don't have that left a lot of space in the partition of the BONE (OS partition is about 75 GB of storage and DATA partition is approximately 209GB).

    I wonder just what is the purpose of the DATA partition. What is a point system stored in the recovery partition? IfI deleted data stored on this partition it would change anything on my laptop?

    If it's a system restore point, I don't use system restore not much, and if I create a system restore point, I always burn it to a CD. So if I deleted the DATA partition, I still would be able to run the system restore and use an image on a CD?

    I wonder just what is the purpose of the DATA partition.

    -> Partition data was created by the people who set up your machine.

    What is a point system stored in the recovery partition?

    -> Each partition uses its own folder to store its files from system restore.

    IfI deleted data stored on this partition it would change anything on my laptop?

    -> What data did you remove?

    If it's a system restore point...

    ->, You cannot move the system restore points. Windows will not let you.

    If I create a system restore point, I always burn it to a CD.

    -> Exactly how do you do that? You may be thinking of the Image system data?

    If it was my machine I would select one of the following methods:

    • Use the native Disk Manager or third-party disk manager to resize my partitions.
    • Use a single script to move my libraries (for example, My Documents, my music, etc.) for the data partition.
  • Error on admin password recovery and disk Windows XP Configuration

    I have a HP with XP Media Center Edition 2005 (no update known) that a friend ask me to try to fix them so his mother could use it... For more than a year he came down and her son used. There are 2 problems # 1 son changed the password just before it went down and can not remember. # 2 Windows will not start because of a problem of disk configuration.
    Is it there to retrieve the password so I can run chkdsk/CFS. or run the recovery and update it.

  • M70 recovery CD - disk partitioning

    When updating from the laptop using the recovery CD, it gives you the ability to partition the hard drive? If this is not the case, do I have to re - install XP using a normal XP CD and then add the drivers from the CD of tools?

    In addition, the recovery CD lets you choose what software you want installed or not?

    Hello

    Yes! There is the option that allows you to create own partitions. Check it please this subject http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2513&tstart=15

    You can also install your own operating system and then install the drivers and Toshiba designed tools manually by using Tools & Utilities CD or download them from the download page of Toshiba.

    There is no option which allows you to this software can be installed, but you can remove all the stuff that you don't need after the first start.

  • Pavilion Dv7 - 3125sf BlueScreen and [disk hard Test failure]


    Hi James,

    I would run the DST short test on the hard drive again.  If it still does not respond, it is you say that there are areas of the drive that don't work anymore - that is to say that they cannot be written to or read.  From my experience, it is the beginning of the end for the HARD disk, because over time, areas more and more the reader will go the same way.  The speed and the magnitude of this decline is impossible to predict, but it will happen.  So to answer your question, I always install a new HARD drive, although as long as you do regular backups of your files - (make two backups so that if the drive has completely failed when refreshing a backup, you will always have the other is)-you can continue to use your existing drive until it becomes unusable.

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes

  • Satellite A660 - recovery and partitioning of the C drive

    I have an A660 running Win 7 (64-bit) and he always has to turn more slowly than I expected.

    I have a 450 GB C drive and would like to reformat the drive and partition to C and D.
    I want to make a full recovery and re-partition.

    The question is what someone did this and if so what are the steps?
    That is to say, first, then recover the partition or I partition and then recover?

    Thank you
    Ramin

    In my opinion, you create restore DVD first. Then install the recovery image using these discs and when the OS is finished set partitions on your laptop.

    After doing this, it can happen that you will not be able to use the disk HARD recovery option more but the DVD of recovery only if as a first step in the history please create these recovery disks.

  • (Redirected) Support bootable recovery and restore

    My Dell Inspiron 660 Office PC crashed some time ago and I downloaded from the recovery and restoration of the media of the Dell Web site. However, the problem I have is that the media, I downloaded are not bootable, so I can't use it for a bootable USB or an installation DVD. Given that my office has crashed, I had to download media via my HP laptop, but if you follow the directions on the Dell Web site on how to convert the files to bootable recovery, it does not really help. The assumption that they have done is that you download the boot from a Dell computer media, but I obviously can't do since it's the machine from Dell that has crashed and is in need or repairs. So the question is; How can I get the no bootable media to be bootable so that I can fix my PC, I downloaded? It seems that the recovery hard disk partition has failed since running the startup repair does not work, or rather does not solve everything and the PC cannot always get in Windows. Can someone please?

  • 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.

  • Recovery and system recovery disks don't work is not on the MS213 Pavilion (All in One)

    Hello

    I ordered the HP recovery discs as F11 will not work. I got 4 disks with one separated from the others. He said "use this first! The other 3 were combined, and they are marked the system recovery and disc 1 of 3, 2, 3 and so on. I restart the computer with the disk that says use this first. The disc starts to load and says loading files of Windows, or somehting like that. Then he said: Windows startup. I don't get the Recovery Manager menu. After a few seconds it ejects the disc, and there are 3 pictures on the screen, at the top left is like a circle with a check mark in it. With an arrow, it points to an ejected drive of a computer image on the disc tray. And it points to a picture of a computer with 3 drives. It seems that he tells me to put in the next disc. I put in one that is graduated from 1 to 3, the light on the drive flashes, and then nothing happens, regardless how long wait. If, instead of starting with the disk that says this first use, I start with the one who said that 1 of 3, after loading Windows files, it says something like "this disc is not for this computer.

    System information:

    HP Pavilion MS213 all-in-one

    Windows 7 64 bit

    Configuration of stock

    Background:

    It is a friend's computer. She was making a mistake "code purple" with the resumption of F11. She had someone watching and I don't know what they were doing, but when I got it, I was getting an error at startup. somehting like cannot find the Boot...

    I found a commercial version of Win 7 64 bit standalone disc and installed on the machine. It runs great, but it had to be for troubleshooting only, until I have the recovery disks.

    So, I'm stuck and would appreciate any help. I thought initially upgraded to Windows 8, but I thought that the recovery disks will be cheaper, and also the friend doesn't have to go through the inclination of windows 8.

    I will be happy to provide more information if necessary.

    If you can read the license key Microsoft Windows 7 of 25 characters related to the machine, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD. Remember, it is the version that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker.

  • Questions about the discs of recovery and partitioning Satellite A200-QH0

    I bought a model of Satellite A200-QH0 in Australia and due to the lack of forums in our country, I would like to ask a few questions here if that's ok.

    The book contains 3 partitions - partition "EISA Configuration" of 1.6 GB, the great partition of the BONE and the recovery partition. So I did the recovery DVD? s using the Recovery Disc Creator tool, as we are not provided with a real disk. But I would like to know what will make these records? My questions:

    1. they really will return that disc hard back to the _exactly_ how he was including the partition layout and software pre-installed?
    2 will be the recovery DVD works even if the disk has been repartioned? I would like to divide the system partition to give space for the files of data etc. But this extra partition will stop the recovery procedure works correctly?

    Please understand that I'm not interested in reformatting the entire disk. I want to just split the partition from the OS. But in case I need to replace the disk in the future or something, I would like to know how to close to 'original', these disks will make me, no matter what I do on the disc?

    Thank you
    Dave

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure how recovery works on the Australian laptops computers Toshiba, but I presume that the restore CD contains the image of Toshiba with the operating system Windows, drivers, tools and utilities.
    I think that if you want to use the recovery CD then the whole HARD drive will be formatted and all partitions will be erased.

    I think that the recovery partition is not created using the recovery CD because the CD of restoration has already been created for the recovery partition is no longer necessary
