HP recovery disks does not start in my HP Pavilion Dv7

I have a HP Pavilion dv7 that I have to wipe clean due to spyware. I bought the HP system recovery DVD and on them it says "to start, insert the disc into the optical drive of your computer and follow the on-screen instructions." Unfortunately, I insert the disc, and I get the info from the upcoming disc, but no instructions. I even tried to make the laptop run from the disk drive at first upward. When I did he asked me to create system recovery discs. I didn't need to make them, I have them from HP. Just frustrated about why the HP drive are not following the instructions.

Here is a picture of the screen I get when the disc is inserted:

I really hope that someone can help me that I've been waiting to do this for weeks, since I had to wait for discs.

Thank you

KC

You are the very welcome, KC.

If you can not boot from the DVD, it may indeed be a bad disk.

Also, make sure that you have disk 1 in the first to start from.

And Yes, you should get a very brief message to hit any key to boot from the CD, then watch carefully for it.

If you miss it must start over and restart the PC.

  • Recovery disk does not start

    I'm helping a friend with his HP CP61-313US laptop. Somehow, it's not boot from the hard drive. It attempts to load Windows, then crashes, gives me the black screen where you can choose the safe mode, safer networking, etc.

    He will not start in safe mode or other options. It does not start from the last good configuration.

    I ordered the HP recovery discs and disc inserted one of the stimulus. It won't boot from the CD. I went into the bios options and set the CD drive as the first option. I did both of in the settings BIOS F10 and F9 startup command settings. I hear work the CD player, but he keeps trying to boot from the hard drive.

    I never get a message that says something like "press any key to boot from the CD-ROM."

    Is there anything else I can do to force startup from the CD/DVD?

    Is it possible that I can copy this HP on a flash drive recovery myself and try to boot from a flash drive. I guess it is possible that the DVD/CD player is broken. My friend who owns the computer used rarely to the reader.

    Is there some other bios setting I can use? Either by the way, I ran the memory and hard drive diagnostics and they passed.

    I have determined that the DVD drive on this laptop is bad or is about to fail. I tried to create a Windows repair CD and was able to read the CD. It would give me the message "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" that I was not getting with restore disks factory HP. I put restore HP factory disks in another computer and tried to copy them. I thought that, perhaps, if my drive was any failure there is something on the factory records it would not read but maybe a freshly burnt disc copy can read. It would be almost from the start. He would try and then getting errors of e/s on the copied version of the disc. I came to the conclusion that I could find other uses for a drive DVD external USB and since they were only $40 I have advanced and bought a. I now restore since the original HP recovery discs successfully using the external DV

    Key USB D. I had to upgrade the bios to boot from the DVD USB drive, but it seems to work. So you can consider my original request as 'resolved', but I can't speak for other users who have hung on this thread. But if someone has trouble with their discs original HP, I would suggest trying to make a copy of their, and maybe a copy will work. The copy almost worked for me.

  • Vista will not load and continually reboots, recovery disk does not start.

    I have a Dell with vista on it. Recently, it has automatically installed an update and now it does not load Windows at all. It goes to the screen where I have the opportunity to "start in safe mode" "safe mode with command promt", "last known good configuration" etc. and none of these work options (all start loading them upwards and then the computer restarts just itself).

    I tried to put in the cd of installation for vista, but it won't start. I changed the options in the BIOS so that it starts from the CD first, but then it just goes to another blue screen that says: there was some sort of system faliure, and the only option is to restart the computer.

    I also tried to connect an external dvd player to see if he was not playing the disc because of a defect in material, but the same thing happens.

    I also tried out the RAM and it put it back again (a single website suggested I try this).

    Nothing seems to work! And now, I am out of options and have no idea what to try next - help!

    http://support.Dell.com/

    If it does not start where install Recovery DVD from Dell, you will need to contact Dell at the above address.
    As you say, you have changed the boot on the appropriate drive order and still nothing

    It would seem that you have a deeper problem that just a straight reinstall the problem.

    Hmm... for me, it seems that the laptop does not start from the disc (DVD), but it attempts to boot from the HARD drive...

    In any case, have you tried to boot from another disk; for example, Win XP, Linux Live CD?
    To do this, and check if it is possible... If Yes, format the HARD drive and try to boot from the recovery again disc!

  • error 0xC0000225, recovery partition does not start

    Hello

    I have a HP dv7 with Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.

    A few months ago, I did a factory restore, the recovery partition start (I have no recovery disks). After that, I thought to divide my C: partition where Windows is installed, and I did it with Windows disk management.

    So my new scores were: C: D: with recovery, OS, E: HP_Tools and g.: the new partition.

    A few days ago the sistem ran very hard, so I thought I do another factory restore from the recovery partition. When I rebooted and you press F11, I got the "0xc0000225 error".

    I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit bootable drive and I tried Startup Repair tool and other repairs of sistem, checks HDD, but everything seems to be ok.

    I reinstalled the operating system, from the disk bootable on C: (OS starts and works well) and let the other partitions as they were... but it seems that the recovery partition still does not start if I can do a restore from the factory with all the drivers and utilities, as they were at the beginning.

    Any ideas on how I can do?

    Thank you!

    It seemed that it there was not much I could do about this problem. My disk is dynamic, there is no Recovery Manager from the Start Menu, there has not been any creation of HP with HP folder recovery support. I managed somehow to make a repair disk, I tried it but no results, the error kept popping out every time.

    I inserted the Windows 7 disc to try to delete all partitions, including the recovery and HP-tools and do a Windows Installer Cleanup, but the Format, New and Delete buttons are inactive.

    I did some scans disk and memory tests, everything was ok... I started with a disc of Hiren and accesed the HARD drive with a program based on linux and so I managed to delete the partitions.

    After I installed a new copy of Windows 7 to work with my SN and everything was ok. Unfortunately I lost partitions recovery and HP-tools, but at least it works well again.

    Thanks for your all your support.

    I need some advice:

    Can you direct me to a HP solution or tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    I opened Control Panel - backup and restore and set up a backup schedule Win 7. Created a backup drive, and according to the instructions, a system image on a separate hard drive. This has been created successfully.

    I have so successfully by the operating system, created an ERD in Windows 7 bootable, the screen guests said that this disc could be used to start the computer when you cannot start the operating system due to serious errors. This disk allows you to restore the system from a system image created using backup and restore or use other recovery tools to correct the problem that prevents windows from starting.

    The system does not start on this disc. I did two restorations of the factory and went through the steps above, five times without success.

    When you try to start the system with the Windows 7 repair disk the following steps were taken:

    1 Win7 disc repair, system rebooted, you press ESC, selected the Boot Manager, select DVD disc and received the following message: boot nonsystem disc error.

    2 rebooted system. escape, Startup Manager, then selected sata2 with no luck. Same error message as in (1).

  • Satellite A30 - 203 - recovery disk does not work

    Hi all

    I have an old Satellite A30-203 and have a problem. I tried to format my laptop but the product recovery cd does not seem to work in deletion the data on my disk, its becomes blocked during loading files of ntfs? Now I am not able to retrieve a windows session would I need a new product recovery cd and would be able to get it?

    Thank you

    Hi dimation,

    It is difficult to say what is the reason of this but made is either it s a laptop problem itself or the recovery disc (e.g. scratches) causes this problem.

    In my opinion the best way to check this using a Microsoft Windows disk. If the installation completed successfully, you need a new recovery disk. As a result, you can ask a service provider authorized in your country! :)

  • HP ENVY 17 - 1190nr l 3D: recovery disks does not not for HP Envy 17 - 1190nr

    My main HARD drive died. Toshiba 500 GB MK5056GSY was the 'C' drive factory installed. The laptop also has a "D" drive, which was the same exact brand, model and size.  (secondary HARD disk does not work at all. Long story, but I think it is a driver or a hardware problem with the motherboard)

    I overwhelmed the secondary HDD at the location main, reformatted and reinstalled the operating system with the set of recovery DVD 7, SUCCUSSFULLY disks.  But, since I can't have a second HD to wor, I decided to spend the primary HARD disk capacity, so I installed a Seagate 1 TB HARD drive.  Now, I have reinstalled the operating system using the recovery discs 7 DVD and when the 7th finished disc, a window open warning that says "Recovery manager cannot restore your computer using the original image. "Please contact the HP support (Yes right, it's a joke) error code: 0xe0ef000e.

    I also tried to install the operating system with the recovery of a 240 GB SSD disks. Same question.

    BUT, the original secondary drive allows the operating system recovery 7 DVD image reset goes to work.

    WHY?

    Finally, if I install a stand alone Windows 7 OS for the new Seagate 1 TB drive, it works fine.  The problem is that all additional drivers, programs etc. provided with the laptop originally are net, just a light version of Windows 7. The works of the OS, but the wireless, the blueetooth, readers of cards, etc. do not work. And missing a few programs that comes with the original image (some are too expensive to buy when I wouldn't need it again).

    Thanks for any idea on this issue.

  • Recovery CD does not start

    Hello

    I have an old IBM ThinkPad R50e (1834-PTG). When I originally bought in 2003, I created a set of recovery 6 CDs I kept this set in a place course and decided today to recover the laptop factory settings. The problem is that the computer won't start any recovery of 6 CDs (does not start other CD bootable without problem). CDs are not empty and contains a directory named "RECOVERY" with a bunch of files that it contains.

    I tried to use specify the CD-ROM drive as first boot device, to use F12 to specify the device, nothing helps.

    How can I use these CD?

    I found a ghost image, which is the result of a whole new R51. I'll be able to use it to recover my system? Will be the key of Windows that came with my computer work with this image?

    Well, it turns out that there was another drive (surprise) the names "Recovery boot CD. Now, the recovery process begins without any problem.

    Hi, Nick:

    Unfortunately, I don't have any experience in troubleshooting these special software installations.

    We should expect to download and install.

    If they are not, I have no tricks up my sleeve for you to try.

  • Acer Aspire M5 w/Windows 8 - e recovery system disk does not start

    My M5 of Acer one-year-old has failed and now I have a blue screen that says "the Boot Configuration data file is missing some required information, File: \BCD, error code: 0xc000000d.» I ordered an e recovery disk that was supposed to solve the problem. The instructions say "Insert system disk labeled disk," "restart the computer and press F12...» "When I do this, the tracks of the disk of the system for a minute or two, stops, and a minute later the laptop stops. I don't think the system disk is accessible to all. My Acer is two months out of warranty... it's so frustrating. The advice is much appreciated!

    Just an update... Blayn was very helpful and directed me to the Acer support. The problem has been resolved by directing the bios to boot from the hard drive instead of the hard drive. It was a little difficult to achieve... I couldn't have done it without the excellent guidance and support from Acer. My Acer has worked very well since, and I appreciate help in this forum!

    I put in the CD and boot from the CD drive, I can hear work and the display shows "Windows loading files" and a bar appears at the bottom of the screen, after that, the screen turns white and all I'm left with is a pointer of the mouse and a black screen.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Have you tested if the laptop would start using another bootable Linux Live CD, WinPE or Win XP disc?
    Please check that would help determine if the problem is related to the computer laptop or recovery disk.

    Please also check if the HARD drive is ok. For this test, you can use a test called Drive Fitness Test free HARD drive tool. Google for it.

    However, it could also be a defective recovery disc and in this case, you should get in touch with the guys where you ordered this drive may be you need a replacement.

  • G62-219WM recovery disks does not

    Hi, I recently tried recovery (Win7 Home 64 bit) through the partition recovery on the computer itself, after the computer has a bad virus. I got some error messages (don't remember exactly now) but suffice it to say that the recovery has not worked. I get a message every time I turn on the computer:

    "BOOTMGR missing".

    Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart»

    I could always get into the recovery mode, but would still get the error recovery failed.

    Apparently, I neglected to do the recovery disks initially, and I also no PC on DVD backup system image.

    I bought the HP factory records and received them yesterday. I installed the and had no message that something was wrong. I thought that they would solve my problem, but once the system rebooted and finished "installation files", she returned to the BOOTMGR message. I can't even get in the way of recovery through the computer more, it seems, there is no recovery partition more despite records saying they made a. After researching and trying different tips and tricks and sneak in to watch the files on the computer itself, I assumed that Windows is not yet officially installed on the computer. The C:\ drive is almost completely empty save a few files/folders, there is a "(X:\) bootdisk with all windows files, but they do nothing. There is also an icon for the Recycle Bin, and Control Panel, but they come with errors that they do not exist if clicked.

    I tried to delete the partitions and start again then recovery disks, but that doesn't seem to change anything. I also downloaded an ISO that starts the computer into recovery mode, but he finds no OS, and I tried to go to the entry screen and typing in various orders directly, but even once, cannot find the files that Web sites suggest you to change or correct.

    I'm doing something wrong? It seems that the HP recovery disks have made things worse!

    I ordered Windows 7 from Amazon, but being that it's so expensive, and I begin to doubt even that will fix my problems, I wanted to see if there was nothing left to try, or if I was doing something wrong.

    I was working with my friend last night who knows a lot about Windows and computers in general, but he came up to the top with the same fixes that I had already tried, and they have not worked for him either.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I never used the "phone Activation" when using this method (activation online certainly has not worked in the past when you use an OEM product key), but recently, I had a response from someone who I had suggested this procedure, saying that it enabled online so I can't say for some others I know that activation of the phone always worked when I used this method.

    Kind regards
