• Re: How to access the Windows Recovery Console?

  How can I access the Windows Recovery Console. The State of KBs Microsoft it may be accessessed to start with the DVD of the OS. However, you provide OS DVD only Toshiba recovery disks. When I boot them it gives only the option to erase all data and restore the original state.

  I have a Toshiba Qosmio F10 running Windows 7 32 bit.

  The reason why I need the recovery console is due to a breakdown of chkdsk which results now it running whenever I start up and hanging each time. Other Articals MS say I can get out of this infinite loop by using the Windows Recovery Console.

  Are you sure you have Qosmio F10?

• Having difficulty to remove the Windows Recovery Console

  I followed the instructions on how to do it, but the cmdcons folder could not be deleted. Some files are in use? I installed the recovery yesterday with "Combo Fix" console after having a suspected virus. I wish to remove the console now but could not get the deleted file.

  I followed the instructions on how to do it, but the cmdcons folder could not be deleted. Some files are in use? I installed the recovery yesterday with "Combo Fix" console after having a suspected virus. I wish to remove the console now but could not get the deleted file.

  I recommend that you do not delete it. Recovery Console can be very helpful in situations where you have errors in the file. It works essentially as a back-up allows to replace the files and fix some errors. You can change the amount of time boot options at startup, which speeds up the overall starting your computer. I have mine at 5 seconds. I know what I want to do before I turn on the computer and therefore do not need the options for the default value of 30 seconds.

  I know there are a lot of forums tech that allows you to install Combo instruct. Personally I would never put that on my computer. I've seen too many problems to evolve from it in the past.

• Message in the Windows Recovery Console

  When I get on the C driveI fixmbr will get the message "computer seems to have a MBR atypical or invalid.»
  Fix MBR can damage your partition tables if you proceed. This could cause all partitions on the current hard disk to become inaccessible. I ran fixboot, but this message persists with fixmbr. I had a nasty malware attack and analyses and fixboot seemed to help but this still happens. Is there a danger here? PC does not start correctly. Under XP Home HP desktop computer.

  Hi Walter Hardison,.
   
  -The fixmbr command works correctly?
   
  The fixmbr command causes this error message to display on your computer every time that you run the command, regardless of the State of the Master Boot Record (MBR).

  After running the command fixmbr , your computer displays or not the command worked properly. If the command was successful, your computer displays the following message:

   
  New to writing on the physical disk's master boot record
  \Device\Harddisk0\Partition0.
  The new master boot record has been written successfully.
   
  If you receive this message, you can ignore the error message you mentioned.

• Cannot start the Recovery Console Windows from the installation CD

  On my MacBook I ve running in VMware Fusion 3.0.1 a Virtual Machine with Win XP Pro.

  When I reboot Win XP Pro and start again from the Windows XP Pro installation CD, I can see the "Welcome" with the menu screen

  -To install Win XP now, press ENTER

  -To repair an installation of Windows XP using the Recovery Console, press r.

  -To quit Setup without installing Windows XP, press F3.

  When I click ENTER or R, I see the message

  -The installation program did not find any hard drives installed in your computer. Setup cannot continue. To quit Setup, press F3.

  Today the question? In the 40 GB of the virtual machine, I have two free partitions of 10 GB and 20 GB Win XP Pro execution. Why see Setup cannot process this partition?

  I ve also installed a second Virtual Machine, but the installation of VMware Fusion not show the "Welcome" screen, but it installs both Win XP Pro.

  The installation of the recovery in the virtual race Machine Win XP Pro Console is successful, but when I start the recovery in Start Menu Console, just the screen blue 0x7B (inaccessible boot device).

  What must I do, to start the Recovery Console in VMware Fusion? Or another question: when merging does support the Windows Recovery Console?

  Wow, nothing indicates that you use a German version of Fusion that your English is excellent.  Anyway as VMware headquarters is in the United States, like me, I always provide information in English and information-specific guidelines in the VMware Fusion help files come from the English version as well as any Documentation from VMware that I reference.  I say this next part as a general and not directed comment towards you, as you have noted your using the German version... Any person requesting help must always at least include technical information referencing manufacture, make, model, version, and language other then English, material goods and software involved in issues.  We'll find a good reference for the type of information that must always be included in HOWTO: ask (and answer) Questions.

  As a much get into the BIOS if you use the Fusion 3, you don't need to enter the BIOS to change the boot device as this can be done in the settings now however to enter the BIOS for other things that need/want of press you F2 directly after starting the Virtual Machine and after having clicked on the screen but the av VM boot so fast that it's easily missed.  You can add the following settings to the file of configuration .vmx of the Virtual Machine to slow down the startup so that force once in the BIOS.

  bios.bootDelay = "3000"
  bios.forceSetupOnce = "TRUE"
  

  The bios.bootDelay is in milliseconds and the bios.forceSetupOnce Boolean value is then set to FALSE, automatically.  Each of these parameters are independent of each other.

  You can find the following useful notes for this and or other uses...

  ====================

  Notes: keyboard

  Different setting function, you may need to adjust various preferences keyboard to work with the function keys and or use the Fn key.

  Notes: Starting the virtual machine from CD/DVD or ISO Image

  If the Virtual Machine is not initiating the CD/DVD or ISO Image, and then select the CD-ROM in the Boot Menu.

  Engage the Boot Menu and select the CD-ROM drive...

  The bottom of the virtual machine just above the status bar after the Virtual Machine is started, it has...

  "Press F2 to enter SETUP, F12 for the start-up network, ESC for Boot Menu"

  On the status bar, it features...

  'To direct entry to this virtual machine, click inside the window.'

  BIOS flashing by is very fast so you need to work quickly however give it a try and if the Start Menu cannot be higher then the configuration of the Virtual Machine file .vmx must be edited to slow the STATION and or change the boot order.

  OK, click the big Play button on the screen of the virtual machine, and then quickly mouse click in the Virtual Machine screen and then press the ESC key to bring up the Start Menu and select the CD-ROM drive. If it boots the CD very well and if the Boot Menu does not appear, because he goes just to quick access and then try again or...

  Watch the Boot Delay section in the current user's Guide to VMware Fusion and the section of the virtual machine files of A Beginner's Guide to VMware Fusion on when the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file is and add the following lines to the file. TextEdit can be used to edit the .vmx file.

  To give more time to indulge, the Start Menu Add the following...

  bios.bootDelay = "3000".

  For, once, force the VM in the BIOS to change the Boot order in the BIOS if the CD-ROM is first add the following...

  bios.forceSetupOnce = 'TRUE '.

  ====================

  Notes: By modifying the .vmx file

  For Fusion 2.x and 3.x ctrl-click the target entry of Virtual Machine on the windows of the library of the Virtual Machine and choose Show in Finder and then Ctrl-click on the packaging of the Virtual Machine and select to display the contents of the package.

  By default in the normal Fusion 1.x virtual Fusion function file are created in the folder "~/Documents/Virtual Machines" and according to host operating system version and or Fusion worm. There may be a .localized after Virtual Machines although by default, this extension is not visible in the Finder.

  ~ Is your Home Directory.

  The files that make up the virtual machine are placed in a folder (aka Bundle and or packing) bearing the extension '.vmwarevm' which, by default, this extension is not visible in the Finder.

  Example: "~/Documents/Virtual XP.vmwarevm Machines/Windows" in the Finder would just resemble an icon named "Windows XP."

  To view the contents of the entire file "Windows XP.vmwarevm" ctrl-click (or right-click) on the "Windows XP" icon and select Show the contents of the package.

  To change the configuration file of .vmx ctrl-click (or right-click) on the "Windows XP.vmx" file and select open with > choose another... then in Application choose TextEdit.

  Note: If you use Firefox do not copy and paste the parameters if TextEdit unless you copy only the exact line and nothing else in the case, use an editor such as TextWrangler.

  Notes: Creating an ISO Image of the CD/DVD drive

  When you use utility disk in order to have a bootable ISO Image, you must select Master CD/DVD without encryption in which case by default, it will have an extension .cdr file and in version 1.1 of the merger and later does not need to be changed in .iso, although one can if one chooses to. A default .dmg image is compressed and is not bootable, as an uncompressed .dmg will start if changed in .iso and of course the source CD/DVD should be bootable in the first place.

  To create an ISO Image using disk utility...

  1 insert the CD or DVD disc into the optical drive of your computer.

  2. open disk utility (/ Applications/Utilities/Disk utility).

  3. Select the CD or DVD drive in the list of disks and volumes.

  4. Choose file > new > "Disk Image from (name of the disc)."

  5. type a name for the disk image.

  6. choose "DVD/CD master" from the Image Format pop-up menu.

  7 choose "none" from the encryption pop-up menu.

  8. click on save.

• Insert the Windows recovery or installation media to continue - Windows 8

  I tried to reset my Windows 8 Asus SonicMaster S300c for a few days. It was installed with a Windows 8 operating system and had been upgraded to Windows 8. 1. I tried to use the update, reset and various other techniques found on the web that offers workarounds for this situation.

  Having none of them does not work for me, I created an image of USB flash drive recovery, entered the box boot UEFI and loaded the prompt orders and formatted the disk C: (OS disk).  I do not touch or change hidden partitions.

  However, now that I'm booting from the disc Sandisk UEFI (my USB key), I get to the window 'Reset your PC' where he tells me to "insert the installer or Windows recovery media to continue.  Of course, I have my recovery media inserted, the system can choose from two places, the hidden or the USB drive.

  I tried to restore the USB key and the hidden partition and none worked.  What can I do to retrieve Windows 8/8.1 on my computer.  (And it is possible to install Windows 10 on this laptop?)

  I finally solve my problem.  I had to use a combination of various pages and links and articles help to help me sort.  Ranging from the Dism to using CDBurnerXP and RUFUS DiskPart.

• When I try to access the Recovery Console, "Welcome to Setup" screen does not appear and it asks me to install on a partition... Help

  My office has the continuous loop reboot of Windows XP SP3 ("UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME" STOP 0x000000ED - 0x8A8EB7B8). When I put my Windows XP Pro installation CD to access the recovery console to make the steps required to solve the problem. The "Welcome to Setup" screen ever comes back to press 'R' to arrive at the RC. Instead a screen comes up that says, "the following list shows the existing partitions and space unpartitioned on this computer." Then, he gives me the ability to press ENTER to install Windows XP, press C to create a partition, or D to delete a partition.

  Why can't I to the Recovery Console to fix the reboot loop?
  Most importantly, I lost some data on my hard drive? If it won't let me even get to the RC?

  I found a solution to my problem and it worked!

  If anyone else has this problem follow these steps:

  Click on this link and follow the instructions to make a CD of Windows XP Recovery Console. http://www.proposedsolution.com/Downloads/Download-Windows-Recovery-Console/

  Then, when you start using the CD, this...

  1. When you see the "Welcome" screen
  2. press on 'R' to use your Recovery Console to repair the installation
  3. Type "chkdsk/r" and press "enter." CHKDSK will analyze and repair your hard disk. Type "Exit" once this process is complete.

  Your computer will restart and should be fixed. at least mine was.

• Console recovery, missing boot selection - Recovery Console is installed, but the reference is missing in boot.ini

  Console original title: absent the selection of reboot recovery

  I am running winxp pro, ie8 on a Dell computer. I installed my reinstallation cd recovery console. He was here for a few days, but I don't the had not yet used. While I was checking my msconfig startup items, there is a tab with a box boot.ini file to check all boot paths. I did, and a msg came say that a console rec path was invalid I wanted to remove it. So I checked yes. And now, I don't have the option to go to the recovery console. It is still there or did I wipe it with a deletion? Thanks in advance for any help.

  Good - then you must make your boot.ini file looks similar to the example above by adding this line to the bottom of your boot.ini file (that's all one line):

  C:\CMDCONS\BOOTSECT. DAT = "Microsoft Windows Recovery Console" cmdcons

  When XP see these two options (and if the folders really exist), it will prompt you for timeout seconds to choose one and then if you do nothing, it will take one.

  The stuff between the quotation marks double is just the guest XP offers you on screen when it is booting, you can change it to anything you want:

  Of this:

  "Microsoft Windows XP Professional"

  to do this:

  "Elizabeth XP system.

  Being generally impatient, I I would like to change the timeout = 30 to timeout = 5 or timeout = 3 and regular XP will start in the time-out period, unless you choose the Recovery Console before the time-out period.

  In one XP installation partition, really same useless file boot.ini to boot.  XP will complain if there isn't one, but also to start very well the first XP partition it finds.

  You can also adjust the boot.ini by right-clicking station work, properties, Advanced tab, startup and recovery, settings...

  To be really accurate, you might do the properties of the file c:\boot.ini hidden and read-only (this is the default).

• Windows XP SP3, corrupted registry. Corrupt / missing windows system32\config\system - restore via Recovery Console cannot copy files of origin of the system32 folder. Please help.

  When my husband's computer was incorrectly stop we met the ' Windows XP didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM "error message. I understand that the registry is written on the judgment and that it is not rare that the registry damaged during the power failure or abnormal stop. Checking the bandages for details on how to proceed, and begin the process of recovery appearing in theArticle ID: 307545 of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545/en-us below:

  «First part in the first part, you start the Recovery Console, create a temporary folder, back up the existing registry files to a new location, delete the registry from their existing location files and then copy the registry files in the repair folder to the folder System32\Config.» When you have completed this procedure, a registry is created that you can use to start Windows XP. This registry was created and saved during the initial setup of Windows XP. Therefore, any changes and settings that took place after Setup has finished are lost.

  The full, first part, follow these steps:

  1. Insert the diskette of starting Windows XP in the floppy drive, or insert the Windows XP CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart the computer.
     Click to select all of the options required to start the computer from the CD-ROM drive if you are prompted to do so.
  2. When the "Welcome" screen appears, press R to start the Recovery Console.
  3. If you have a dual-boot or multiboot, select the installation that you want to access from the Recovery Console.
  4. When you are prompted to do so, type the administrator password. If the administrator password is blank, just press ENTER.
  5. At the Recovery Console prompt, type the following lines, pressing ENTER after you type each line:
     MD tmp
     copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak
     copy c:\windows\system32\config\software c:\windows\tmp\software.bak
     Copy c:\windows\system32\config\sam c:\windows\tmp\sam.bak
     copy c:\windows\system32\config\security c:\windows\tmp\security.bak
     Copy c:\windows\system32\config\default c:\windows\tmp\default.bak.

  There was no administrator password prompt, but the console began without incident. I was unable to copy these files to a folder. (Yes, I checked my spelling and made certain that the commands, parameters and syntax are accurate.) I created another directory and tested the console by copying the files to repair to the secondary directory. These copied without any errors. I was able to discern that there are no problems with the console itself.  At this point, I'm not sure how to proceed.  There is data that has not yet been backed up and must be recovered where it is suggested to do a new/factory install. Therefore, I need to know if there is another way to proceed to the recovery or if I do a fresh install. In addition, any suggestions on its disk data recovery, if the new installation is the only way to move forward, also would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Just to be clear, when you have tried, for example, to run this command:

  copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak

  You have an error message (please report it to full) or maybe nothing happened.

  But you did another directory (say 'c:\windows\otherdir') managed by running the following command:

  Copy c:\windows\repair\system c:\windows\otherdir\system

  If this is the situation in which you are in, you are essentially impossible to create a backup copy of the current registry damaged.  This is not the end of the world, because as you can see by reading the full article, you never use these files master anyway.  This step is just included "on the side of caution" so that you can restore the original registry files, corrupted, if for some reason you wanted to.

  Because you cannot start the system anyway, you might as well begin the process described in the article without creating these master files.

  You can either make the step remove first:

  delete c:\windows\system32\config\system

  or just try to copy the files in the directory of repair on the files in the \system32\config directory and answer 'Yes' when asked if you want to replace the existing file.

  Note that the success of this procedure assumes that you run the system restore.  Otherwise, you'll find yourself with the registry as there was when Windows installation - which certainly won't be compatible with the State of your machine today.

  Essentially, what you are doing are the following:

  1. While in the Recovery Console, restore the registry to its state when you first installed Windows.  This allows you to start Windows - but do not try to use any application program.

  2. in Windows, copy of the registry that is saved in a recent restore Point to a location that are accessible by the Recovery Console - but not by using the restore application from the system itself, because with the 'original' registry, System Restore is not aware of these restore points.

  3. While in the Recovery Console, restore the registry using the files you made available at step 2.

  I don't really know what's the point of the stage of section 4, unless it is to use system restore to restore to a different restore point.

  If you can't make things work by following the steps above, or if there is no recent restore points to use in step 2, then you are correct: you must backup your data, do a clean reinstall of Windows, then reinstall your applications with original media and restore your data from backup.

  If you are able to do step 1 and start Windows with its original register, you should be able to use the native Windows tools to backup your data.  I would not use NTBackup, but rather just copy (do not use the 'move' command) data on an external hard drive.  Alternately, you could boot from a live CD of Linux (for example, Knoppix) to access your drive and copy the data.  Or if you have a bootable CD from a like Acronis Disk Imaging application, you can use it.  If you would like more information in this sense, after return.

• Cannot write to the folder C:\WINDOWS during repair or even Recovery Console

  The security on my folder C:\WINDOWS on my XP Home Edition somehow got changed to allow total control over a normal users (not administrator), and * only * this user - that is to say, no one else appeared in the list of users who have access to this folder.  I discovered this in the context of trying to figure out why the windows updates work is more due to the file permission errors.  To try to solve this problem, I changed the security for the C:\WINDOWS folder to 1) completely remove the normal user authorization and 2) add full control permissions to the accounts of two administrators on the computer.

  Unfortunately, next time I restarted the system, it would no longer boot properly - it shows a black screen with a white cursor, and that's it.  I then tried using the Windows XP Setup disk to repair the installation.  However, when the repair is executed, it is said that 'Setup cannot copy the file xxx.xxx' most every file it is trying to install.  It may even be all he's trying to install files.  The first file is complains about is vgaoem.fon and I tried to skip all files that fail, but I gave up after a hundred and it was still only about 25% complete.

  Then I tried to go to the Recovery Console to see if I could tell what was going on.  I noticed that I can copy files in C:\, but I can't copy anything in C:\WINDOWS or one of its subfolders.  According to the documentation, I should be able to copy files in C:\WINDOWS--sinon, the Recovery Console would be pretty useless.  My best guess at what happens is that the permissions for the folder C:\WINDOWS are somehow restricted such that even the administrator is unable to write to the directory.  The ACL apply in the Recovery Console?  I can't use the ACL commands in the Recovery Console, so I can't say.  Perhaps there is a registry setting that causes this problem?

  I really want to do a new installation I'm losing all my data (in addition to having to reinstall all my applications).  Any ideas?

  Thank you.
