• Ultrabook HP 4 t-1100 - hard drives defective - No. DVD player - made HP sells recovery USB flash drives?

  Hello

  I am repairing a laptop HP Touchsmart Ultrabook 4 t-1100 for a friend. The pc wouldn't start. BSOD, would try to repair itself, then BSOD again. I ran the hard drive from the bios test. He said that the hard drive has failed. I bought a new drive hard Western Digital 7mm Blue, replaced the wrong drive, has passed the test to drive hard and then asked my friend if she had the Windows 8 recovery disc or a flash supplied with the computer player.

  Apparently, the recovery discs are not included with Ultrabooks, nor are a recovery flash drive. Being that this computer has been for a schoolgirl teenager, given to him by his mother of the computer-illiterate, nor had the foresight to do a restore of backup USB flash drive. All Ultrabooks do not have a reader of CD/DVD/BLU, so a USB recovery "disk" is necessary.

  I don't have another computer to Windows 8 lying autour to make a USB recovery. Some people sell images of USB recovery on eBay, but they don't seem very good reputation.

  And apparently they do not put the product key of Windows 8 on the bottom of portable computers more either! HP offers to sell a "recovery disc" through their section of the support of their website, but it is obviously not a DVD player to put it in.

  Here's my quandry: If I buy the "recovery disk" HP, they will send me a DVD or a USB FlashDrive with a system image on it? And if they send me DVD, I'll be able to put it in a computer Windows 7 and make a bootable system image that then I could put it on a USB key? Then, Windows will automatically find the product key?

• Using a USB flash drive for backup more driver and application backup recovery

  I have a 32 GB flash drive I used to create a recovery for my Aspire S7 backup using Windows 8.1. I understand that in creating this backup everything on the flash drive is deleted before creating backup. Can I now use this drive for other purposes, e.g., pilots and backup applications, pictures, documents, etc., or this flash drive now should he remain dedicated to the sole purpose of being a backup recovery?

  Hi zimmerbob

  I keep as a backup to dedicated recovery flash drive and use one for drivers & applications.

  It is always wise to keep the recovery discs, as well as the recovery disks. Flash memory is quite inexpensive for the moment!

• Re: Cannot create flash drives recovery media

  I recently bought a new Toshiba NB305-N440BL and updated netboo to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Edition Premium. The Wizard "Create the recovery media", as suggested, I tried to create the recovery on two flash drives media. Flash memory were new and had never been formatted.

  What program inserted the "wizard" said that necessary to format Flash drives, but when I asked it to be in format, the program said that there was a mistake and they could not be formatted. I then formatted drives using Windows Explorer Disk Manager, reinsert the readers and received the same "...". needs to be formatted, but wouldn't format... "message. I have also received "error 040E2D-00-00000000 code."

  I have googled this error message and found two people who had the same problem with their Toshiba NET books when they attempted to create backup hardware. There are no answers to their requests for assistance. Is there another way to do back ups?

  Thank you

• HP Recovery Manager and SanDisk USB flash drive

  I just bought an Envy-4 ultrabook and I'm trying to create a recovery media.  I bought a 32 GB SanDisk Cruzer flash drive for this purpose and even if Windows can see the disk and I can add/remove files, Recovery Manager just sits there waiting for the reader.

  Is there a known issue with specific brands of flash player? -I did not need a great collection of 32 GB drives so don't want to continue to buy them until I have found one that works!

  (I can't be the only person having this problem - see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-e-g-Windows-8-Software-Recovery/Hp-recovery-m... who has had more than 100 views).

  HP focuses on the problems reported on flash drives doesn't work is not for the creation of recovery in Windows 8. I was told that they are working on a patch/upgrade to level for the Recovery Manager.

  In the meantime, it was suggested to put in or on DVD or pick up a flash drive which is NOT a logo'd with the compatible icon Windows 8 on the package.

  If none of them are acceptable to hold for the upcoming patch.

• Laptop HP 17 p100: how the usb flash drive big that I have to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

  How the big usb flash drive do I need to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

  Yes

  Hello;

  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

  There is really no way accurately guess in advance, with one of the reasons being that the options are available when you do this.  An option creates a recovery drive minimum with what is needed to repair the operating system.  Another option creates an image that is able to completely restore the operating system and its partition.  Thus, the size can vary from 4 GB to the size of the partition to the OS.

  Myself, I found as build-in recovery to be unreliable, especially those of Ms.  So instead, I use a third-party imaging/restoration solution known as Macrium Reflect.

  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

  My experience is that SIR, when you use the option of Compression high, typically allows to compress the image file recorded at about 50% of the space USED in the OS partition.  This means that if you have a 40GB and 80GB OS partition is used, MR must only about 20 GB to store the image file.

  I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.  In addition, MR has the ability to add a recovery Boot Menu entry.  This then allows you to boot into Windows re, and then you can use it to do a restore - when you cannot start Windows!

  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  Good luck

• Split 13 x 2 PCs 13-m110dx: cannot perform the system recovery using a USB flash drive

  I just bought a Split 13 x 2 13-m110dx PC that came with Windows 8. I have upgraded the OS to 8.1 and made a copy of the recovery Partition using a USB flash drive, and deleted the recovery of the PC disk that I learned that I could do. However, when I tried to retrieve OEM provided using the USB flash drive by following the directions at creation and use of a recovery of Microsoft USB drive (Windows 8) "System Recovery" was not available to the title of "troubleshooting." I tried to tell it to boot from the USB, but it askes me to insert the support of windows or other media, but rejects the flash player. What do I do now because I have not all discs?

  To use the Flash created to restore the system to the factory settings, see "Recovering from a USB flash drive" appearing in the following link:

  HP System Recovery allows to reinstall or restore a HP with Windows 8 computer to the way it was at a previous time.

• Recovery Manager HP does not recognize my flash drive!

  My computer is HP Pavilion p6 desktop computer - 2317c, running windows 8.

  I am trying to create a recovery media and have a 32 facet of Cruzer Sandisk of Go that I intended to use for this. Unfortunately, Recovery manager does not recognize the flash drive... it never appears in the menu at all. The drive appears when I click on the computer icon in the section files, with no problems at all, as you can see.

  

  I have not created a game of recovery media, and it shows not enough space error, he just lets it appear at all!

  What can I do to fix this? I really want to do a recovery set, to prepare for a visit to the demon responsible for foulups visit.

  Hi Savvy2,

  SanDisk has changed the firmware in their most recent products so that the USB appears as a local drive and not as a removal media device. Keys older HP Recovery Manager on this information, and that's why the HP Recovery Manager is not recognized your USB key.  Review of the information that has been compiled by Erico below.

• Question about creating a recovery (file system) USB flash drive

  Hello and happy new year to all, (I'm from greeece, sorry for the mistakes of language possible)

  (Pavilion dv6-6c01ev - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - bought 08-21-12)

  I want to create a USB stick recovery, and I just bought a USB flash drive 32 GB 3.0 for this reason.

  I've never done it before, but I have read how, according to the this page.

   

  My question is:

  What file system must be the USB key, before the decision-making process? FAT32 or NTFS ?

  Bought, thati USB file system is FAT32 by default.

  I already read that on the page above: 'a message of Recovery Manager opens indicating that the flash drive will be formatted. Click OK to format the USB key and continue. »

  but I would like to have, and a more definite answer from someone who knows better.
  

  So, does change the NTFS file system.

  or should I now start the manufacturing process of the recovery USB flash drive as it is (FAT32)

  Thank you for your help

   

   

  I have already created the recovery USB flash drive, and formatted Recovery Manager the disk before the process,

  and at the end, when the recovery files was written and verifyed.

  I look at the file system of the USB flash drive, and it's NTFS...

  I worried for nothing...

  Thans anyway...
