  Wow!

  Sorry, you've got such clothing. I thought it was a professional laptop.

  That's what the site directed me to.

  If you know the number located on the sticker as well as the serial number of your product, you can order a set of discs of recovery on the link below by entering your product number there.

  Also, I just discovered yesterday, if you can read your 25-character product key MS, you can do your own Windows Vista installation disc.  You just download the 3 files you need on the link below and read all the instructions to create a Setup bootable DVD disk using imageburn.

  It was not so hard to do. I burned both the disk of 64-bit and 32-bit disk in case I ever need them.

  I tested both of them (just before going forward with the actual facility) and they seem to work perfectly.

  Apparently, when you enter the product key, he knows which version of Vista you have.

  After you install vista successfully, you can download the drivers you need your laptop support and driver page.

• Recovery disc for a pre-installed Ubuntu 14n (only) flag

  I bought a HP Pavilion 14-n258tx Notebook PC provided with Ubuntu preinstalled OS. A DVD of Windows 8.1 bought separatel with 8 GB of memory.

  I've manually updated Ubuntu to 14.04 faithful version. I created a new partition and loaded Windows 8.1. The laptop doesn't have a touch screen support. However, I do not use the 'Metro' Windows 8 features. My tablet is for that. There are a few features provided with Windows 8 "non-metropolitan" mode and I pretty much enjoy using 8.1 exclusively in mode "W7". I want to get out of dependence on Windows but appreciate having a Windows backup with the new unix environment.

  The BIOS has been F66 of Windows.  Update drivers through Windows via the HP support was simple. There was a problem with the Intel graphics before 2013-11-25, Version10.18.10.3325, updated 158,03 M always on the HP site. Graphical display would turn and the movement of the mouse was "sticky". An e-mail, I managed to come back from HP support that somewhere might suggest only there could be a problem with my system fan. Be sure to get updated 04/10/2014 of Intel 10.18.10.3907 now available via Windows update, which issue is resolved. Missing NVidia drivers are on the HP support site. I adapted my missing Bluetooth drivers to the preinstalled Ralink wireless driver.

  There was a HP_Tools partition which was lost very quickly to try to set up the dual boot. Confusion about the problems in the implementation of Grub2 has resulted in some attempts to complete reformatting/reload. Apparently this isn't Windows 8, which was change my setup dual boot on its own but, I am told, the bios of HP...

  "the problems you are experiencing are related to some known bugs in the implementation of HP EFI. "Basically, the firmware is hardcoded to start the bootloader from Microsoft and which make it difficult, if not impossible to boot from anything else.

  I have to live with it, finally begin directly in Windows and access to Ubuntu throgh esc/F9. I think it's quite precarious and likely to lose a lot of setup work by maybe an update has failed. Some documents on what's happening, or how to disable HP of W8 feature protection can be useful.

  I downloaded the UEFI environment. I told him to put it on a USB key, but it recharged HP efi files in the system partition despite. This is apparently not a problem...

  (No legacy support, secureboot and off quick start)

  End sector number of sectors system partition boot sector
  / dev/sda1 2 048 1 050 623 1 048 576 EFI system partition<  ="" plus="">
  data 665,833,472/dev/sda2 1 050 624 666,884,095 (Linux) partition
  / dev/sda3 1,448,515,584 1,465,147,391 16,631,808 swap partition (Linux)
  / dev/sda4 666,884,096 data partition (Windows/Linux) 781,631,488 1,448,515,583

  but I lost my key F11 on startup diagnostics that are only partially resumed through HP efi files.

  Apparently by my purchase of a single system preloaded Ubuntu Windows acquired separately, Miss me some features of Windows HP for the features below:

  HP utilities: can't see, Play, system event... confusing whether they are present or not

  some Cyberlink: "InstallShield Wizard is not a valid HP drive. The installation program stops now. "

  and imortantly...
  Windows Recovery 8: does not load message of incompatibility.

  RECOVERY

  originally PC only Ubuntu:
  Should I make wiping out shouldn't it be a recovery partition or a recovery disc to reload the original drivers in order to recharge then Ubuntu via a live recording?
  I should be able to recover my F11 diagnostics with that?

  Where can I retrieve F11?

  Windows 8.1:
  Yes, I have the disk Windows 8.1 and should be able to reinstall if necessary on the partition.
  I went to mine for the full recovery of the system of Windows 8?

  Or that is my problem of recovery environment mentioned above)?
  Wiped out I should wait to retrieve my comprehensive system drivers, etc. and Windows through my Windows system recovery?

  This certainly proved to be the learning experience than I expected! :-). This support site and the forum has been very useful. I'm very happy with the result. I could try to make a double machine (VMWare).

  Thanks for the help so far to have me almost through this.

  In the off topic about the Intel graphic display bug which results in putting on and off the screen (she came back! again), I guess its due to some incosistency between graphics and power features. Unfortunately, prevent the Windows driver updates prevents all updates driver that allows me to remove Windows Intel/use generic display make it impossible to solve other problems of driver (such as USB network emulator) and I had to disable the Intel graphics card so NVidia will not find his companion and I get just Windows base. I'm calling ths problem very soon.

  But the problem to avoid something that I didn't know before. That already by erasing partitions Windows or Ubuntu reloading Windows or Ubuntu will load the proper minimum drivers and from there I should be able to do all the updates for the drivers of HP for Windows or Ubuntu drivers I have installed manually from Ubuntu. And I now have enough backup for both OS/driver.

  Am I wrong in thinking that these system recovery discs won't boot your laptop won't start plu?

  And I deadended somewhere in the link of Malygris:

  Get a USB HP recovery disc or HP recovery disks with or without disc rec instructions

  above. I'll try once more...

  So I'm still very confused do not have diagnoses of the base system (via the TOOLS HP F11) for critical maintenance, update the bios and other tools for the recovery of corrupted system bios and the inability to start.

  (1) I can't HP_Tools to load on a USB key. Is it because I have got a usb BOOT drive? I am simply create a 20 GB fat32 partition called HP_TOOLS w / or w/o a drive letter on a spare 120 GB external USB and HP tools cannot find or create the partition of HP tools. It doesn't have to be loaded in a similar partition created from a shrunken Windows partition or create a partition on my hard drive as well.

  2) what facilities relevant to the boot/recovery should I expect the disk of "fast food" that I was informed (above) to get again the representative of HP on the phone says is not available to me for my model?

  (3) why can't I load the recovery of Windows 8 DAS?

  For my model:

• Recovery disc creator is not installed on the Satellite A305

  It turns out that this laptop (Satellite A305) doesn't have the included Recovery Disc Creator! ...

  There is none
  Start - Programs - recovery Disk Creator.
  Neither
  "C:\Program Toshiba Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator\."
  Neither
  "TRDCLcher.exe" anywhere on the hard drive (including the hodden records)

  I do not delete anything, I was fully aware of the importance of the creation of a RD
  There is only a 'applications and drivers disc creator' which, in itself, is no way to restore the system.
  Turn on/off the system with 0 doe hurry not bring the wizard of recovery of HARD drive either, just a series of beeps.

  The so-called official support said that they could not sell me any media that Toshiba only gives to clients directly (tat how´s for nonsense!)

  Ironic that it would be easier to get Linux or a bootleg copy than to take the "supported" path...) -[

  Hello

  Your laptop belongs to the Toshiba series us and that's why I put t exactly know how it works on this laptop, but on the European of Toshiba laptop, you might find the Toshiba disc creator software that allows you to create a Toshiba Recovery disk.

  I put t understand why ASP you called t couldn't sell you a recovery disk. I think that you asked someone who didn t know that.

  Usually the ASP should be able to provide such discs. So either you can call Toshiba USA or ASP and ask again this recovery disk.

• Recovery disc is not compatible with newly improved hard drive

  Product name: HP Pavilion DV6-3042tx laptop

  Product number: WY364PA #ABG

  OS: Windows 7 64-bit (pre-installed)

  Error message:

  "This PC is not supported by the system recovery discs.

  You can continue to recover this system with these discs. »

  After you run a memory test, the results suggested replacing the preinstalled hard drive. I bought a new hard drive similar to the pre-installed, but with a capacity of 750 GB rather than 640 GB and has installed successfully. I then use the recovery disks created by the recovery program to install the original OS from the old hard drive to the new hard drive. Windows started to boot normally until a message appears indicating the error message is on top. What should I do now?

  Hello:

  I would just do this if you read the MS product key 25 character on the bottom of your laptop...

  If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

  Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

  Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  Or you can order a set of factory HP recovery discs and I hope they will work.

  There, you can choose: computer A series-Satellite Mobile-Satellite-Satellite A20

  Well, if you have installed your laptop not from the CD of Toshiba Recovery, so you must install all Toshiba drivers and utilities. This should be done in the right order!
  The chipset utility is very important. It must be installed first.

  Download the right WLan driver and extract it to the folder.
  Go to Device Manager, select the Wlan card and install the driver. The source of the driver is the folder of extraction.

• Can I install a new HARD drive and use an old backup

  Just, I got my new Dell's HARD drive and need to install it in my Dim 9200. Can I use the old hard drive as a backup drive or secondary without deleting anything or reformatting? I have too many things on the old drive and am not crazy about cloning, I prefer to do a clean install of XP and be able to do things more when I feel the need. Is this possible or am I dreaming.

  Has never done this before so I need help. Thank you.

  After installing the new drive hard SATA and windows installation, etc. and when it works to your satisfaction, put the 'old' drive as the secondary, transfer all the files and folders you need in the new C: / volume, using the option "send to."  Providing the old hard drive has no problems, then the format and partition the drive for additional storage.

  Note. Only files and folders can be transferred, all programs and applications must be reinstalled from their records, or downloaded from the site of the publishers.
