• HP ProBook 430 G3: USB recovery enough?

  Hello!

  I have a HP ProBook 430 G3 with Windows 7. I think install Ubuntu LTS 16.04 and wipe the drive completely in the process, including the recovery partition. If I for some reason any later wanting to 'factory reset' laptop / reinstall Windows 7, a USB key with recovery media will be sufficient to insert and boot from?

  My thoughts are to use "Create recovery media" in "HP Recovery Manager' to create the USB said. Is it enough to get the laptop to factory condition?

  Any help is appreciated!

  Hello:

  Yes, it's normal procedure to recover the PC when there is no recovery partition, or you replace the hard drive.

  You can also order HP recovery media if the recovery USB disk that you create does not work.

  '' Yes Intel Core i5 - 2520M is as far as I can go? '' Yes.

  Beyond the capabilities of the chipset, the 16 GB capacity is dependent on the BIOS support. HP released the specifications that are available on the web for the public and the manual for State service providers authorized that 8 GB is the maximum taken in charge.

• How to partition a hard drive for a B50-70 for Linux? No problem with that?

  Hello

  How to partition a hard drive for a B50-70?

  I want to install Linux and keep Windows 8.1 also.

  This will affect the software factory example: back up hard drive function, OKR?

  Problems partitioning B50 of the 1970s?

  Is it acquisitions have 8.1 Windows on a laptop Lenovo-B50-7?

  What will happen if I got rid of Windows 8.1 operating system?

  Thanks in advance.

  Information on the machine:

  B50-70

  Model name: 20384

  Windows 8.1

  I've not seen / heard of successful use of the flash drive for recovery purposes. The default software using optical disk, when I used it on my G580.

  If your laptop does not have a CD / DVD burner, you may need to contact them directly to discuss this option.

  As to where he is? It is a hidden partition on the hard drive, is usually not accessible.

  Cloning the hard drive can not return to that partition hidden - it would be a little bit the clone of the drive to work.

  I recommend to download your manual of maintenance on the Support site and learn more about the 100% specific for your laptop recovery process.

  Thanks for the reply

  HP_Tools partition has the Diagnostics

  Recovery partition has the recovery that are accessible with a key F11 to restart Manager.

  System partition is required by the operating system

  C partition contains the operating system and is also where you store everything and run programs.

  If you have created a recovery from USB or disk set with the HP retrieve creator of media already, then you can safely remove the recovery partition. Be aware that you will lose the built in functionality to have the Recovery Manager. F11 won't do anything.

• Satellite C55 - A - 1 K 6 - Partition which is Important for the recovery of Toshiba?

  My laptop is Satellite C55 - A - 1 K 6

  In the past, I have deleted Toshiba System Recovery Partition by mistake when I install the new OS for my laptop so I sent my laptop to Toshiba Service and they recreate standard scores and send back me my laptop.

  I need to ask this question to you now;

  When I opened the disk management in the computer management, I see two partition named Recovery. One of them is the beginning of the disc and it is 1 GB, another 11FR and at the and of the disc. What is the Toshiba system recovery?

  On the other hand I just created 3 * 4, 5 GB Toshiba System Recovery DVD by Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. Instead of I have those DVD am I still need the recovery Partition for recovery of my laptop in the future?

  Now, if I delete all the partitions on the hard drive now, can I still use Toshiba Recovery with these 3 * 4, 5 GB DVD?

  Thank you...

  Original recovery image contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, tools specific to Toshiba and utility and sure some additional software so it may not be only 1 GB. 11 GB partition is for the recovery image.

  > On the other hand I just created 3 * 4, 5 GB Toshiba System Recovery DVD by Toshiba > Recovery Media Creator. Instead of I have those DVD am I still need the recovery recovery Partition > my cell phone in the future?
  In general you don't need it more. With the help of your created recovery DVD you will be able to install the original recovery image whenever you want. In case that the HARD drive will be effective and exchanged with a new one, you can use these discs to install the original recovery image.

  Many people do not read manuals s and does not create a recovery media. After a few experiences, they are surprised why HARD recovery disk image installation doesn't work anymore.

  I hope that some other Toshiba laptop owners will read this so here are original recovery Toshiba recall info:

  + Important INFORMATION +.

  + your system is equipped with a hard drive recovery system. If you need repair your computer in the restaurant to original factory State, you can do so directly from the hard disk (press F8 when you start your computer, choose "Repair your computer" and follow the instructions in the menu) or create a media drive bootable recovery to that end. +.

  + Toshiba recommends you create recovery disk medium using the "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator' to ensure that you are able to restore your computer to the original state factory-installed, +.
  + even if your computer is seriously damaged. +

• Satellite C55A - 1 K 6 - partition which is necessary for the Toshiba system recovery?

  I have a laptop that Toshiba Satellite C55A - 1 K 6.

  In the past, I deleted the Partition Recovery Toshiba by mistake and now I want to ask the cause of the thing of this...

  When I go to disk management in Windows 8 (which preinstalled by Toshiba on my laptop) I see four partitions...

  The first partition is close to 1 GB and I think his need for Windows 8, then I see C and D for my Windows 8 and at the end there is a 11 GB partition and it is hidden and it does not appear in my computer in Windows...

  I just created 3 * 4.5 GB defined via Rescue Media Creator Toshiba Recovery DVD and now if I delete all the partitions on the hard drive, can I use these DVD media to restore my laptop to its original state, when I bought it or that I still need the recovery Partition on the HARD drive instead of using recovery DVd media?

  If I delete all the partitions on the hard drive now, are these DVD media are enough to return to the first State independent or not?

  Sorry for my bad English and I hope to describe things in my head... :)

  Sincerely...

  > in the past, I have deleted the error Toshiba Recovery Partition
  It was really bad move since the recovery partition is necessary in order to create the recovery disk or recover the laptop with HARD drive recovery option.

  > The first partition is close to 1 GB and I think that his need of Windows 8.
  That s right.

  > then I see C and D for my Windows 8
  That s right

  > and at the end there is a 11 GB partition and it is hidden and it does not appear in my computer in Windows.
  It looks like the recovery partition. But I put t understand why you said earlier that you deleted the Toshiba recovery partition. Could you please clarify this statement?

  > I just created 3 * 4.5 GB defined via Rescue Media Creator Toshiba Recovery DVD and now if I delete all the partitions on the hard drive, can I use these DVD media to restore my laptop to its first State

  The recovery DVD set would be to format the HARD drive and would recreate once more all partitions.
  The answer is: Yes, it will restore the laptop to the State as on the first day of purchase.

  By the way: I found another thread that you created on the same theme:

• ProBook 4520 s - HP Recovery Manager?

  Hi-

  I have a new Probook 4520 s, product #XT989ut, Windows 7 Professional factory-installed.  I got no CD, DVD or any other media.  I want to make a system image backup, I can restore it on a new hard drive full hard drive failure. HP Recovery Manager is not on my laptop and I can't find a version for my laptop on HP's web site.

  What is the HP solution for a total failure of the hard drive on this laptop?  Is there a version of HP Recovery Manager?  If I need to use Microsoft Backup, then I need a Windows 7 installation disc, then how can I get this drive?

  Thank you

  Hello:

  I would order a set of recovery disc for your laptop. I don't think that any professional laptops come with a restore CD game more. My new 6930p did not come with a game, so I ordered a set for $10.00. Mine came with Vista Business 32-bit. I was disappointed that the restore for the 6930p disc contained only a 32 bit OS disc.

  What good is being able to install 8 GB of memory in this machine, when you only have a 32 bit OS?

  Oh, well... I have a restore disc Vista Business 64-bit I can use of a 6910p.

  Anyway, if you live in the United States or the Canada, here's how to get a set of restore for your PC disks:

  1. Enter the reference number and the serial no on the underside of the computer on the white label. The model # is one 4520 s HP-Compaq, but the part number is on this tag below the serial number.

  2. call HP at 1-800-952-7689, option 1 (ranking in the list in the option made restore disks).

  3. provide the information asked by the representative who answers the phone. Some simply ask the serial number, some want at the same time, or they'll want just the serial number and the type of computer (4520 s). I hope that your restore disks set W7 will ship with two disk OS 32 and 64-bit as one made for my 6910p.

  4. do you have a Master Card or Visa ready for purchase. They do not take discover. I believe that you will be charged $10.00.

  You will receive the discs by first class mail, or you can pay an additional $10.00 for shipping FedEx.

• HP ProBook 450 G: drive recovery on external hard drive

  Hello!

  I had a few questions.

  I have a HP ProBook G2 450 with Windows 8.1 now, I wanted to create a disk recovery, but on an external hard drive. Is it so that it is not possible to put it on an external hard drive? When I try to make a recovery it says I should use one with at least 16 GB USB Flash drive. So this means that I could not even do a DVD recovery disc?

  And I would also know, if I put teaching 10 Windows (as our University offers), is possible later use the 8.1 Windows recovery disc to return to 8.1?

  Eager to help!

  Marta

  Hello

  Please use a few DVDs or good USB. The USB will be write-protected therfore no point to use the external HARD drive because you will not be able to use your external HARD drive, only read. Normally, you have 2 options: use of DVD or USB.

  Yes, you can use recovery media to go back to your orginal Windows 8.1.

  Note: you can create recovery media once.

  Kind regards.

• The recovery Partition is really necessary for normal operation?

  Hello

  W1-810.

  After you have created the 2 USB key recovery, I deleted the recovery partition. He did with EaseUS partition manager pro. Immediately, the Tablet has crashed and is not booting now. I can boot from the USB key in the UEFI system recovery tools. Not tried to go further.

  But the recovery partition is used during operation normal sp that is why it crashed, or what happened here just another problem that I created?

  In fact, it seems that I got it working now. With diskpart, I deleted all 4 partitions on the disk, and then resumed next attempt then worked.

• ProBook 450: Recover the encrypted Partition pre-launch

  My 450 ProBook has Winmagic Pre-Boot hard disk encryption installed.  As a result of a serious error of windows lost access to \BOOT\BCD.

  I am able to mount the drive in a SATA docking station and see all three partitions.  Of course, the interest partition is encrypted.  Can someone tell where I can get a copy of Winmagic which can be installed on another PC to decrypt the defective drive and recover the latest data?

  Winmagic weren't able to help as the version installed on HP laptops is a customized version.

  Only solution - 'Format C:'.  Actually had to restore the factory setting and start all over again.  Necessary to do 3 times the drive had bad sectors which were not cleaned on the first couple of iterations.  PC seems now stable, simply replace the HARD drive

• HP ProBook s 4330: UEFI recovery

  Hello world

  Brief history of the problem:

  I tried to convert my dynamic GPT partitions based, changed the code manually and got BSOD when booting, Windows wasn't loading but at least tried to. UEFI (menu BIOS graphic nice) worked very well at this point.

  I booted from a Linux distribution and tried to change the partitions back codes. At this point, something was wrong and I lost partitions HP_Recovery and HP_Tools. Pretty graphic menu missing BIOS, the system has stopped, loading at all.

  I booted from a USB key again and I tried to restore the partitions. My scores are now looking at this:

  MBR (1 MB) - system (300MB) - (400 GB) - unallocated space (46GB) - HP_RECOVERY (15 GB) - HP_TOOLS (5 GB)

  I was able to successfully mount them and check the files - everything seem normal.

  Tried to fix my Windows, started from an ISO and it gave an error "System Recovery Option is not compatible with the version of windows that you want to repair" while I don't know the version is the same. Tried to install Windows from scratch - turned out he does not see the disk at all (I did not try to inject the drivers however).

  Now, I'm a little hesitant how to proceed. I can't repair Windows because he does not see the drive. I can't go into the BIOS settings, just diagnosis of options. My HP_TOOLS and HP_RECOVERY appear to be healthy but just somehow is not accessible. First of all can I correct my UEFI? But how?

  Some additional information: when the laptop starts up, it gives me standard options F1, F2, F9 (select boot device). Under F9 I see options such as "HARD disk", "Upgrade Bay" and "USB" (if inserted), but both "HARD drive" and "Upgrade Bay" cause a message clear indicating "no found boot device".

  Please notify, any help is very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  Well, I guess I'll post my solution here for future generations.

  1. I have recovered and reactivated the HP_TOOLS partition using these instructions:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/other-notebook-PC-questions/how-to-use-the-HP-BIOS-update-UEFI-utility/TD-p/337347

  2. I backed up my entire HARD drive using the USB external with gparted (debian based) usb live. Then I deleted the corrupted partition table completely, gdisk order if someone interested. I'm not 100% sure but I think I've changed the table of gpt for msdos.

  3. then in BIOS/UEFI - still not sure what it is - GUI Advanced BIOS-as - changed my HARD from AHCI to IDE disc type.

  4. started from ISO of Windows and this time it has detected my drive. Even more, I managed to launch repair and restore all my partitions and bootloader.

  5 tried to run - had a BSOD, but at least it was loading my old Windows now.

  6 a changed type of disk HARD back from IDE to AHCI - and voila! -my old Windows started normally.

  Now he's back in basic disks as I wanted, the only thing all the partitions except air system damaged now. I guess that the Windows repair tool just didn't care for them. It's kinda weird that I was able to read the files on them to Linux and both systems say it is an NTFS partition that is healthy, but it does not look good. Probably, I'll try to recreate it using my backup, but this is already another story.
