• Format HARD drive, delete the recovery partition and recover with disc

  Hello

  I have a laptop Satellite C660D-17F and want to format my HDD, remove the recovery partition and recover the preinstalled Windows 7 and other software. I don't want to keep my own data, which are all stored already, I just want to be sure I can safely restore preinstalled stuff. I have a few questions that I need help to clear up before I go ahead.

  Am I right in thinking the dvd recovery disc I made when I got to my laptop has all the software and drivers that I need on this subject, the same that would have the recovery partition? If I do another room to spare in now just to be sure only will they have the out-of-box default stuff: OS, software and drivers on any of my data?

  I found [this post | http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/items/faq/71] which explains the recovery process. If I select "Erase the hard drive" (so I can wipe my hard drive and delete the recovery partition too) what happens after that? It will restore the OS and the software for the backup of dvd drive? Will the process after that recreate a recovery partition (which I don't)?

  Added SIDENOTE:
  I actually prefer to be able to choose what programs preinstalled settle after that I have format, but I'm guessing that probably isn't possible and will settle for install everything and remove what I'm after. Or is there a way?

  Sorry, I know that was a long post, but I want to be sure of what will happen BEFORE I'll and spoil things! :) If you got this far, thanks for reading. :)

  Hello

  I will try to offer help. ;)
  > Am I right in thinking the dvd recovery disc I made when I got to my laptop has all the software and drivers that I need on this subject, the same that would have the recovery partition?
  Yes. Saved on recovery discs recovery image contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, specific Toshiba and utility tools and some additional software.
  > If I do another room to spare in now just to be sure only will they have the out-of-box default stuff: OS, software and drivers on any of my data?
  Preinstalled Toshiba Recovery creator make recovery disc that includes the recovery image only. It has nothing to do with your personal data.
  > I found this post that explains the process of recovery. If I select "Erase the hard drive" (so I can wipe my hard drive and delete the recovery partition too) what happens after that?
  After that, you should use recovery disks created for the recovery image installation.
  > Will the process after that recreate a recovery partition (which I don't)?
  When you use the recovery disc for your laptop recovery image installation will have factory settings which include the recovery saved on the HARD disk image. To be honest I do not understand why you do not want to have this recovery image on the HARD drive. This allows the installation of recovery using recovery of HARD drive option. But of course you can delete it later for more free space on your HARD drive. Installation image that you can always use created for recovery discs-recovery DVDs.
  > I'd really rather be able to choose what programs preinstalled settle after that I have format, but I'm guessing that probably isn't possible and will settle for install everything and remove what I don't want after
  Fix.

• How to FORMAT my hard drive with a RECOVERY PARTITION and my system restore from. BKF files

  History made as short as possible.

  I inherited a gateway with XP Media Center 2004. I transferred all my old files to the new computer, and it worked fine. I did a full backup of the system (.) BKF). Later, I installed a disc for my Vivitar camera I used before with my old system and my computer crashed.

  I tried everything I know to do a restore. F8, F10 and F11 during start-up and the best I could come up with was the safe MODE, but it would fail to any ENTRY.

  I really feel like the hard disk must be formatted and start over. I can not access the recovery partition and no XP CD was provided.

  My question is: How can I reformat the hard drive with a petition of recovery and reinstall my operating system of BKF files?

  If you have a recovery partition, I suggest you post in the forums of the bridge

• Remove the Dell recovery partition and create a data partition

  Hello world

  Two years ago, I bought a Dell Inspiron N5110. In addition to the existing windows partition, I wanted to add a partition Ubuntu as a partition of data (NTFS). Well, I added the Ubuntu partition, but because of the Dell recovery partition (14.65 GB, used 7,69, formatted to NTFS), I had no primary partition left to create a data partition. I did not had the time to solve this problem so far.

  Here you can see the different partitions. 4, 66GB there is the linux swap partition and the 18.63 is the linux partition. Of course, they are contained in an extended partition that is created during the installation of linux using GParted.

  Basically, what I would do, is to remove the recovery partition. I did not throw a look inside, but I read that as it contains bootstrap information, as well as win7 boot no more if I'm deleting it. The partition is marked as 'active' (in contrast to my main windows partition of C). I guess this is a classic problem, but I couldn't find a tutorial or a satisfactory answer on this forum (I apologize if this is the case). I assume that it is not enough to define steps to activate the recovery partition and assign to the partition c active (i.e. they don't going to critical data recovery to the c partition). Furthermore, I read that repartition your drive could affect the functioning of the emergency recovery partition, is this true?

  Thank you very much in advance for your help.

  Greetings,

  Harald

  Yes, sorry, I had a problem and the image has not been correctly incorporated into my message. Here it comes. Sandra means healthy, active, primary partition means that primary partition. However, you will notice that windows see the ubuntu partition is a stretch.

  

• Retrieved using the recovery partition, and now there is no recovery partition

  I restored it at the factory and now there is no recovery partition.

  How do I get that back?

  Thank you

  May I ask how you got the laptop to factory settings?
  Have you used the Toshiba Recovery disk or the HARD drive recovery process?

• Pavilion 15-p045tx: I deleted the recovery partition and I don't have the disc

  I deleted the recovery by mistake partition while I tried to format my hardrives. I have no recovery disks when I bought the new laptop. I need help in getting my laptop to a factory State. Help, please

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  I'm afraid that, as the recovery partitions are parties and if no recovery media is created, the only way to return to the factory default condition is by buying/getting recovery (DVD or USB pen drive) media. You can get the HP recovery media (website or by contacting HP support - these are the recommended means) or by buying some stores online.

  Here are the instructions > http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/bph07143

• HP recovery partition and dynamic disk!

  Just got my new laptop and added a partition of my HP pavilion dv7 WIN 7 64 bit and noticed disc was dynamic. I don't know if it changed the dynamics or as it was delivered. I'll always be able to use the recovery on the dynamic disk partition? And if I create recovery discs, they will work on the dynamic disk or will it convert back to base?

  It can work with Easus software, but I'm sure that you need to remove this extra partition before conversion back is possible.

  If you need an extra partition, look HERE page on the use of the recovery partition or delete to free up hard disk to create a new partition without conversion by burning a resumption of course the value of dynamic_after.

• HP Stream 13: How do we install 8.1 Windows on HP 13 Stream without a recovery partition and a Windows license key?

  I deleted all the hard drive on my HP Stream 13, including the recovery partition.  I want to reinstall Windows 8.1 on the disk.  I downloaded the ISO of 8.1 of Windows on the Microsoft Web site.  When I try to install it, I get prompted for a product key.  He must see that the material already has a license for Windows 8.1 and not to invite me for a key.  What should I do to get Windows installed 8.1?

  13 Stream is a license for Windows 8.1 with Bing, it does not cover the Windows 8.1 ISO that you downloaded, that's why you're be prompted for a product key.  I heard Windows 8.1 with of the Bing ISO are available, but they are not official.  If you have not created a USB recovery before wiping the drive, you could also buy the HP recovery media or possibly install Windows 10.

• Windows 7 recovery partition and Hp

  Hello! I have a Hp pavilion dv7 with a recovery partition. IM currently on family vista premium, but if I buy windows 7, the installation will remove the vista recovery partition? If so, what can I do to keep it?

  (And if I buy 7, it is possible to descend the slope to vista?)

  Please answer!

  1. When you install W7 that does not alter the recovery partition, unless you choose to do so.

  2 burn your recovery DVD set before moving to Win 7. then it's a matter of booting from them to reinstall Vista, if you want.

• I how to remove the recovery partition and make the entire hard drive, a recovery partition?

  I have two hard drives and the two have a recovery partition. Disk 0 is disk 1 80 GB and 500 GB. I want to remove the recovery on both partition and drive 1 recovery partition. Disc 1 is much older, but I would have preferred free space on disk 0.

  The "recovery Partition" in question is not a thing of Microsoft.  Ask that ever created it (the manufacturer of your computer) which will probably help you not because it's beyond their desire to do so.

  I suggest you create / have external media and numbers of series/product key in another place course of the computer itself.

• Satellite L500-19 - remove the recovery partition and create new

  Hello!

  I bought a new Toshiba Satellite L500-19th with Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit). So far, everything is brilliant work.
  I have already created the recovery DVDs.
  As a result, could now delete the partition with the recovery program? I want to use the full space of my hard disk and create partitions as I want.
  But I don't know how I should do this?
  Could you please help me?

  Oxford

  If you are sure that the created recovery DVD is ok at 100%, you can delete all data on the second partition.
  Open Windows Explorer on the left side where is the second partition, click with the right button of the mouse and choose the FORMAT option.
  Choose the quick format option and click START.

  After a minute or two, all data will be gone.

  Please note: in the future when you want to use recovery DVD for installing Win7 the whole HARD disk is deleted and you will lose all your data.
  Using recovery DVD you can not format the C partition only.

• can super cookies listed in its properties as an MS-DOS program to store in a vista system recovery partition and stay an MS-DOS program if a system recovery is performed

  Hello

  The recovery of the system takes your computer to a State where you will have just the factory settings and nothing more. In other words, that it will also format the computer in this process.

  So, I'm sure that the cookie will be effacΘ when you do a full system restore. You can check the items below which talks about backup and restore. I also suggest you make a backup of data you want to keep for the future and to restore once you reinstall the operating system.

• In addition, no trouble with iTunes and QuickTime recovery partition

  T couldn't find the post I put forward...
  My Qosmio E series (I n know where to find that one is) had a recovery partition, as said in the title... hard disk and I got it to factory settings, and so now, it seems that he doesn t have a recovery partition. How would return the recovery partition?

  2. problem Description: I tried to install iTunes. Things then began to happen because of iTunes and QuickTime do not install it... Windows Installer Gets a deep mistake... that keeps me so to uninstall anything related to iTunes and QuickTime and windows update then gets a code 80070424...

  Initially it has disabled my DVD player but I fixed... What can I do to make it back to the normal execution and able to install iTunes...
  This problem was happening over a period of 3 days
  My computer is on a network with another computer.

  Thank you
  Operating system: Windows Vista

  > Couldn t find the post I put forward...
  Just click in this thread on your account name and you will see the list of all threads that are created.

  I saw your ad on the other and you're pretty confused with this. On laptops Toshiba, there is no recovery partition and recovery image is recorded on the second partition in the file called HDDRecovery. Do not change anything here and you will be able to use the HARD drive recovery facility when you want using F8 and repair my computer option.

  iTunes and QuickTime are not Toshiba applications and if you have problems with it you should contact Apple and their support. They have designed and tested clean products and they should be able to help.

• Can I use the HP Recovery partition after formatting and partitioning the rest of the hard drive?

  I recently had my HP Pavilion dv4 2145dx laptop (Windows 7 64-bit) go kerput.  The Geek Squad said that the motherboard is dead.  I bought a laptop and I use this one for now, and I use the former dv4 as external hard drive.

  I intend to continue to use the hard drive from the old dv4 as an external unresolved for now, but I wish we could fix the dv4 at some point in the future.  Here's the problem: to get the most out of the former dv4 as external drive, I want to repartition it so that there is an NTFS partition and one HFS partition +.  This way I could easily use it with my Mac and Windows machines.

  But if I do that, I'm not sure if the image of HP recovery would continue to operate.  If it does not, then if/when I get the old dv4 a new motherboard, I couldn't restore the operating system from the recovery partition.  It is a problem, because I have not create recovery disks (stupid, I know - I'm definitely making them for the new machine).

  So, I want to do these two things:

  (1) create my dv4 recovery disks.  Can I do this if the dv4 drive is mounted in an external enclosure?

  (2) format and partition the drive dv4 (the leaving intact recovery partition) and later to recover the system from the recovery partition.  The recovery partition would continue to operate in these conditions?

  Thanks for any help that anyone is obtained.

  Hello:

  What you do to the C:\drive will make the ineffective recovery partition.

  You will not be able to create a set of recovery discs unless the drive is usable in Notepad.

  Can you still read all 25 characters of your product key of W7 on the bottom of your laptop broken?

  If so, you can do this...

  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.

  Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

  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.

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  Or, you can probably still order a set of recovery disc for your HP laptop.
