• Windows XP system restore Boot Failure with new hard drive

  HP Touchsmart IQ546t running Windows XP Home Edition

  Here is my story:

  A few months ago my PC was informing me that a hard disk failure is imminent and how can I back up my data.

  I was able to get most of the data backed up and has continued to use the PC.

  Finally, the hard drive failed.

  Not being not able to find system restore disks, I ordered a set of HP.

  In the meantime, I was able to save the rest of my data using an external hard drive enclosure, a laptop and a backup disk.

  I used system restore discs to erase the hard drive and restore the operating system.

  After the successful restoration, I was able to boot my PC and use it for a few days, but again became imminent hard disk failure message. Yet once again, the hard drive failed and I was unable to use it.

  I decided to replace the hard drive, thinking I could install and use the system restore disks to get the installed operating system.

  I followed all the instructions, I find and could not start the machine to the point he will recognize the recovery disc. I receive a message that tells me to insert a bootable media.

  Does anyone know what I'm missing here?

  Is there something I can try to get the hard drive to boot to the point he will recognize the recovery disk?

  Thanks in advance for any advice.

  Hello

  OPS, sorry on this subject.  If the recovery discs are not recognized not so you act have a problem trying to get the new HDD to be restored.

  Try the procedure below and see what happens.  View your results.

  Cyberlink CD recovery for hard drives. When you created this CD, insert it into the system that fails to start, restart, and wait until you see a window with a green check mark.  Next, remove the CD and insert your first recovery DVDs.  Reboot the PC and go through the process of installing the operating system again.  If all goes well, it should install properly this time.

• System Restore does not: Windows XP, getting the error "system restore has not initialized because windows stops."

  "System restore has not initialized because windows stops."

  This message keeps me from using system restore any previous date, I chose. Restore fails every time.

  Window shutsdown too early. What can I do to prevent this?

  Try to boot mode safe (the F8 key as the computer starts from the tap) and run system restore from in Safe Mode.

• My family in Windows XP system restore is disabled by group policy. The system cannot me to enalbe this function, despite I have a partition of my hard drive to store all backup

  When I open the System Properties dialog box, System Restore is checked, saying: she is disabled by group policy, and the system you cannot activate this option. I got a partition dedicated to my justo of hard disk to store backups and create Points of restoration with a capacity of 10 GB. How can I solve this problem?

  If you see things like this:

  You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
  The System Restore tab is missing from the my computer properties.
  System Restore has been disabled by group policy.  To turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator.
  The System Restore tab is available, but the turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy) box is grayed out.
  The task manager has been disabled by your system administrator.
  The registry editor has been disabled by your system administrator.
  The task manager has been disabled by group policy.
  The registry editor has been disabled by group policy.
  The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.  Press a key to continue...
  The operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.  Please contact your system administrator.
  The "Run" option is missing from the start menu.
  The option "Log off."... ' is missing from the Start Menu.

  The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.

  If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, because there is no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and that really doesn't tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.

  You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.

  Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection.  The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.

  If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.

  The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP.  This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.

  You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.

  No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).

  If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the Task Manager, the registry, System Restore and command prompt Editor, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.

  These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs.  Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.

  Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

  Save the new text file with extension .reg on your desktop or somewhere you can remember with a name you can remember, something like:

  enableit.reg

  After you save the file, close Notepad.

  Locate the file enableit.reg on your desktop and double-click it.

  Alternatively, you can right-click on the enableit.reg file, choose open with... and select the registry editor.

  Answer in the affirmative to the question... Are you sure you want to add the information in the registry?

  You should then see a message that information has been registered in the register.

  Reboot your system and test.

  You can delete the enableit.reg file when you are finished.

  If the registry editor has also been disabled, we first fix (not a problem).

  Given that your system has or has had an infection, follow up with this:
  Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  For the benefit of Microsoft technical support engineers, here are some ideas offered in the past which does NOT help with this issue:

  Safe Mode boot
  Last good known Configuration startup
  A clean boot
  Sfc/scannow in running (or trying to run)

• (Windows 8) System Restore how can I?

  Guys,

  I was see several issues since windows 8A are released on the no sound, Apps, and other small problems with the operating system and laptop.

  System Restore is a software available in all versions of Windows 8. System Restore automatically creates points of restoration, a memory of the system files and settings on the computer to a point in time. You can also create a restore point. Then, when you use the system restore to restore your computer to a point in time before the beginning of the program, the System Restore returns your computer for files and settings of the restore point. Your personal files and documents are not affected.

  Most of these features worked fine until an installation (Windows), or just randomly stopped working.

   

  As a general rule, when a features quit working all of a sudden the system restore will bring the laptop at a time where the features on the laptop was working.

   

  When you do this step, you must be sure to save any information or downloads you recently installed on a flash drive or any type of removable media.

   

  System Restore is a great feature that HP and other manufactured goods have to give you the possibility of not losing the functionality at any time while having the laptop.

   

  

  First of all, here is the document that will help guide you in this step.

  While taking these steps, I must warn to re-register you please any information you have recently saved or downloaded.

  Hope it will be useful for you guys!

• Why my system restore has stoped working and 1 problem more too!

  Hello, I hope that some people may help me with my 32-bit vista, 2 cpu to 1.9 Ghz Intel, gateway comp. GM5420, G965 express processor and directx 11 or 10 and I run Avast Anti-virus.  My SR = system restore has worked for many years and now the past 3-4 months whenever I need it, it starts as usual, but at the end it says error could not change your system. No file or folder have been changed.  The only thing I can think is around the same time, 3 to 4 months ago, I found and started using some utilities to clean up my computer.  I have 4 different services who clean things different from vitsa. I wonder if 1 of deleted then a file that I need to use SR?  And if not how can I repair my vista then SR woeks again? Thank you

  And another problem that earlier, I started to have my yahoo email will not load a web page, so that I can ck my emails or use any other link on messenger to open a web page of yahoo. He worked as my messenger hotmail from microsoft that works very well. I uninstalled yahoo messenger and reinstalled several times but each time that nothing works. I can sign but can't click on anything. A s error message opens and says can not find the web yahoo page you are looking for. I really need my email yahoo to work right as my hotmail works very well.  I wonder if its my IE9 that something has changed there and now yahoo of just work, I don't know just a guess. Its driving me crazy why these two problems came earlier when I've never had a problem with either an ever sice I had this beautiful Vista computer.  Please tell what to do easy to understand the answer I can do what you think I should do to solve the two problems? Ok.  Thanks for any help. Ok

  There is no file to download from Microsoft; I'm sorry.

  Certainly sounds like the registry cleaner has done by the removal of 10% of the files.

  If SFC does not help, you will need to follow the rest of the information available to me somehow. (ask about DVD).

  Or save your data and reinstall Vista.

  You don't say what brand of computer for Recovery Options and you say that you do not have a Vista DVD; but a recovery disk came with him...

  See you soon.
