Laptop died during the system recovery

During a system recovery, my laptop died. I plugged it all in a row... but when I turned it on a message comes up. "Windows is unable to complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, run the Setup again. "So I clicked 'OK' and it happened on the screen, he's going to when you log out, and then it restarts. After that, the same box back upward. So I shut down my laptop and when I turned it back on, it goes into the newspaper. It shows the Administrator icon and it says "locked administrator" I clicked it and it then says: "your account is disabled. Please consult your system administrator. »


Is there anyway that I can make another recovery system? Help please!

For problems/questions about the recovery process, contact the manufacturer of your laptop.

This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

See you soon. Mick Murphy - Microsoft partner

  • Strange question, craps remaining after the system recovery on my windows xp desktop.

    Strange question, thank you for your comments!

    I just reinstalled windows xp on my old HP desktop HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7334n PC computer using the recovery on D partition. I expect that the installation would be a clean install. At the beginning of the recovery, I noticed the message on the screen saying that the backup was in process. After recovery, I could start my computer and realized that used disk space C was still as the space of C drive used before the restoration. I also noticed that there was a lot of pre-installed programs appears on the list of start - all programs. I never installed them after recovery. Many of them work. I expect a CLEAN installation. It is not clean at all.

    Furthur inspection on the system to reveal problems:

    1. I noticed that there are so many records under the program folder program files on the C drive (I have only one program fichiersDossier). I guess that the recovery process copied evething under my original forder of program files in this folder. I don't have anything I can use most of them because the links were scattered on a large number of them (I can't run the program of either start - all programs or folder directly). Is not at all a CLEAN installation.

    2. the recovery process also copy my document in the folder as well original user, see below to understand which is the original file of the user.

    3. originally, in my computer, I have two users (or 3 including comments), we came to HP-administrator with the computer, is another family.  On the computer I just recover, there are 3 users accompanying the recovery. They are administrator, hp-administrator and guest. I've renamed the family administrator. Now, under systems and settings, I see the user plus two records. They are administrator-YOUR-4DACD0EA75 and hp-administrator-YOUR-4DACD0EA75. YOUR 4DACD0EA75 sounds familiar. I can remember that I was lazy and that it has not changed the computer name during installation after recovery. YOUR 4DACD0EA75 is actually the default name given to me during the installation. I don't like this at all, so I changed the name of the computer and restarted the computer. The name of the computer was changed after the restartup, but ugly folder names remain the same and I can not even rename the ugly file name.

    I had done some restorations system on this computer before, I never noticed a problem like this before.

    1 have we seen this before?

    2 I forgot something?

    3. can I safely delete the original user profiles and records under the program folder program files?

    4. can I do a system recovery really CLEAN? I understand that the crapware will be installed during the system recovery. I'm ok with that, what I want is my pc to be recovered to the original state of the plant.

    5. I can read is no longer my 1st disc restore dvd. Is it possible to make another set of recovery disks?

    Thanks for reading my long message!

    1 have we seen this before? I saw something similar and other relief to be fixed.

    2 I forgot something? I don't think so. Just do an another hard drive recovery. Try again is all I can think about.

    3. can I safely delete the original user profiles and records under the program folder program files? I would'nt mess with her. Just do another hard drive recovery system.

    4. can I do a system recovery really CLEAN? I understand that the crapware will be installed during the system recovery. I'm ok with that, what I want is my pc to be recovered to the original state of the plant. Yes. Used hydrogen peroxide call destructive (or full) non-destructive vs. Make a full - restoration destructive to put things o back the way you bought it.

    5. I can read is no longer my 1st disc restore dvd. Is it possible to make another set of recovery disks? By all means, out juice of repair disk and try to get it back. If you can repair the disk, make a copy or 2 whole and store them in a safe place. Otherwise, you will have to order them from somewhere on the Web... as a popular auction site.

    Thanks for reading my long message! You are welcome. Thanks for posting. I hope my answer helps.

  • My system hangs during startup "for the first time" after running the system recovery.

    HP G62 - 227 CL

    Win 7 (64 bit)

    No error message, in itself; just a screen frozen on reboot.

    Months, my computer has suddenly started glitching on me.  I stopped and tried a reboot.  The system froze on start with flying colors.  System recovery tried several times but must have made a mistake because he wouldn't.  Resolved to buy a new hard drive and reinstall from the recovery disks.  Delayed unnecessarily until today, months later.

    Before you buy a new hard drive, has decided to relaunch the system recovery.  It worked!  I tried the option that has deleted everything and restored to the software and factory settings.  Everything seemed to work like a charm: hard drive reformatted, reinstalled software, the system prompted me to reboot.  Yes, I did.  Windows started to boot, "Preparting your computer for first use of Setup" appears... and freezes.  For hours.  Hard drive led is off.

    BTW, made sure the button Wi - Fi was on what I read on the problems of recovery if it was turned off when the program is run.

    Restarted.  Press F11.  A ran maintenance and checked the hard disk for errors.  There are errors.  Unfortunately, the default setting of CHKDSK does not repair them.   A opted for a command line.  RAND CHKDSK again with option '/ f/r' seen in other posts.  Here I am too ignorant to get the program to run properly, I guess.  I ran CHKDSK on the two player X and C.  No error found... sort of.  I know they exist because the system will not start.  (Yes, I tried again.)  Return to the command prompt, I tried to run CHKDSK on the drive C again.  This time I got a message that I must first dismount (remove?) the reader.  As I don't know what that means, I opted for the 'no' and have decided to post this help message.

    So.  Suggestions on what do I do then?  More specifically: How do CHKDSK to fix the errors it found?  I think the message was: "errors in $130 of the sector...". "It shows this message two times at the end of 62%.  Freezes for a long time.  Gets will still only slow down to a crawl again around 70%, but no longer.  Then returns to the start of system recovery screen.

    System recovery ran again for the pleasure.  Again, seemed to work like a charm.  Unfortunately, the laptop again sits frozen at "Preparing... for first use" screen again.  It heats more turns.  The audible fan works now plans higher... If none of this helps.  I am stopping and waiting for your advice.

    Thank you!

    Zac:

    My apologies for the delay to return to you.  Believe you that computer gremlins have not hit my very stable desktop which has been fine for years with sudden instability driver?  McAfee thanks for this most recent update!

    In any case, after several diagnoses and find the hard drive has failed in each of them, I decided to install a new copy of Windows 7 as a test while I wait for my upcoming recovery disks in the mail.  I did it by removing all partitions on the drive and do a fresh install.  Here again, everything seemed to go well until that (apparently) a certain area of the drive was used to save/installation of the files.  Even after CHKDSK runs several times (each time he repaired several defective sectors but stalled after only 10% of the disk) the system will become unstable - the last number being a blank screen after logging on to Windows.  So, all in all, epic fail on the side of the hard drive.  The new drive is installed and waiting for my recovery disks.

    Thanks for all your suggestions.  They have been a great help with information, but not with the results because of the training.

    Should not have anything to do with the new hard-both disk that is at least equal or greater than original ability, they work. It is 'possible' that you have received the wrong set of recovery.

    Thing of OE to check. Enter the BIOS by pressing F10 immediately after turning on (have to press ESC, then F10 to the menu). Is the serial number, model number.etc all intact?

  • How to order or download the system recovery software?

    Hello

    Most HP laptops already have called the program "recovery manager" that is built into the laptop. This allows each user recover the laptop whenever they need to.

    Now, there are some situations where you can not use the program from the desktop or even during the boot.

    If this is the case for you, I'll post here how to order or download the system recovery software.

    This video is very useful for users who cannot access the recovery Manger in windows or during boot.

    I suggest, if you are unable to download the recovery image on a USB drive to call HP @8004746836. Order a recovery through HP disk might cost if you are no longer under warranty.

  • In the System Recovery Options administrator password?

    Hello dear users of Toshiba.

    I'm willing to use the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" in the "System Recovery Options" (after pressing F8 when the computer starts) but when I select Administrator as a user, he invites me for a password.

    I double checked my Vista user accounts and the administrator (me) is certainly not no matter what password that are bound to him.
    My problem is that I can't use recovery tool if I don't log in as an administrator...

    Can someone please help? Y at - it factory default password?

    Thanks to you all!

    Hello

    To be honest, your announcement confused me a bit especially the part where you wrote: but when I select Administrator as a user. I don't understand what you mean with it.
    But first some basic information:

    Can you imagine you use Toshiba notebook with the settings and someone will make a joke and use the F8 option and reinstall Vista. All of your settings, data and pre-installed software will be gone. Or can someone just use cell phones stolen to get around Vista secure password for laptop and do clean install of Vista using F8 option.

    To avoid this Toshiba has this security feature and each try to reload Vista password OS will be refused. So if you use the password to log in to Vista the same password will be required before the installation of recovery begins. By default, there is no password and the name of the administrator account will be shown when you start the recovery procedure. When you enter the correct password, the installation will continue.

    So much about the theory. I don't know how you do and which account you use, but the fact is, without administration account name and correct password, you won't be able to install Vista using this HARD drive recovery option.

  • System backup Image against the system recovery disks

    Hello

    I'm new to the system recovery things and I have a question...

    I just bought a new computer laptop m7-1015dx of Pavilion and need to do system recovery discs... (which I realize restore laptop to factory default)... BTW, I have already created the system repair disc.

    However, I read an article on creating a system backup Image allowing you to recovery if lost EVERYTHING, all your installed programs, etc.

    First Question:

    Can someone tell me if I do the backup IMAGE of the system...

    Do I still need to create recovery disk (mfg default) system also?

    The second Question:

    If I create system recovery disks can I still this Recovery Partition?

    I am really really wanting to partition my C:\ drive... it is huge

    In addition, I hate to see storage folders involved in system folders...

    Currently using a symbol/character to separate them.

    From now on, I can't partition the C:\drive all partitions are used as... Max is 4

    and I have 4... C:\drive, System Partition, Partition HPTools and recovery Partition.

    Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

    Thanks for the research.

    Hi, Jenn:

    I'd certainly recovery disks because in the case of a hard drive failure, a recovery partition is unnecessary because it would be on the failed drive.

    Recovery disks will do the same as a recovery partition. Reinstall the operating system and programs supplied with your laptop.

    I have also copy off the coast of the C:\drive SWSetup folder and store it on a portable hard drive that contains all files Installer provided with your PC (except MS Office 2010 Starter).

    You can also make your own Windows 7 installation disc and have a nice bloatware without installing windows, and then install only the programs you want from the SWSetup folder.

    Here's how:

    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/

    You can get rid of all the partitions you want to if you plan to use recovery or disc of Windows 7 installation method that I posted above.

    I write my product key and store them somewhere for more security that many people report that it fades if you keep the laptop on your lap a lot, and then you wouldn't be able to use the alternative method to install W7.

  • The system recovery disk - how do without floppy drive?

    I am trying to create a "system recovery disk" as part of the TOSSHIBA ASSIST (protect and fix the section).

    However, before we proceed, I noted that he was invited to a 'floppy' create a recovery disc but this model without this facility data can be recorded on a CD. I didn't get throughout the procedure and find that I couldn't finish it due to no floppy drive!

    Or otherwise just use the product recovery DVD - Rom supplied with the laptop in case of problem... not sure if this would hold the same data?

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hello Christine

    If you look carefully on this print option (shortcut) it is written to create the CD drivers & tools and in aria info nothing follow description allows to create an external symbol to the top of the caisse de dépôt drivers & tools.

    You use this shortcut, you can simply create Tools & Utilities CD and not the system recovery media. I did a few times without any problem. Equip your optical drive for CD - R, click on this shortcut, click the button BURN.

    All that s!

  • ThinkVantage Button takes me to the system recovery after HARD drive partition

    Hello

    I recently bought a W520 with 4 GB of RAM.

    I bought 3 branches of more than 4 GB each, installed and everything was fine. Also, I shrunk the C: drive and created a new disk (D:\) from space, that I rescued after the reduction of the volume.

    When I start the laptop and you want to enter the BIOS setup by pressing the blue ThinkVantage button, she won't go to the BIOS Setup. Rather, it passes through the system recovery options.

    What gives? How can I go to the BIOS Setup?

    Thank you in advance.

    Continuously when the system starts, press F1.

  • Could use a little help from the system recovery

    My son has a HP DV something 21XX Entertainment laptop computer running XP. He had some serious spyware that I couldn't get cleaned up and I "discovered" restoration of the system using the F10 key. I did it. He acted as a whole new computer I have registry and all. I had assumed that he had whipped the own HD. However when I tried to update XP it said I didn't have the room. And of course a 'C' drive it's full of things. So now I'm a bit lost and I was wondering if there is a guide step by step somewhere (yes I should have asked prior to taking title).

    1. I see as well a C drive and a system recovery disk. Who now works or how can I say.

    2. I'd like to if I don't lose any of his stuff. Actually I'm passing some of them to my external drive for 'safe keeping' if all goes well

    3. I have not been able to get on the net wireless, but have been wired. That is probably an update is necessary? It shows my network and that I am connected, but it won't actually show anything "page not found".

    4. I download some spyware now so I can check my system restore it cleared out.

    For any help or suggestion or pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.

    BTW, my son computer is a few years old and was one of the models who had the bad mother and HP the extended warranty on. They did replace the MB warranty (about 16 months after purchase). It's quality service and I have so I have several brands of laptops, I'm not yet ready to upgrade sound, if I do not.

    Thanks again!

    Hello

    Here is a link to the system recovery with much information.

    Your operating system runs from your C: partition. D: is the recovery partition.

    As far your Wi - Fi connection... going to try Google chrome or another browser to see if you can connect. There is a little bug in IE (I guess that's what you use) which may prevent it from connect to web pages.

    You have probably a Trojan or malware on the system. Try to go to www.ESET.com . Look on the right side under quick links and use their scanner online. It will find all things 'wrong' that is on your system and delete, if you may of course. As far as I know, they are the best in the business. Everyone has a favorite and this one is mine. I have install on the PC of the client frequently and for three years have never had a client complain about viruses, Trojans, adware or malware.

    Do not update your pc had SP2 before having to operate satisfactorily and have done a Windows system restore point.

    post your results (positive or negative) here in your thread so we know how it works for you.

    Kind regards

  • the system recovery media does not support this computer

    I have a HP G7-1365DX and the hard drive (750 GB) is a failure.  I did a recovery file on a USB key from the recovery partition and then replaced the hard drive with a 120 GB SSD.  When I tried to reinstall the USB system, I get the message "the system recovery media does not support this computer."  Is it because the hard drive was replaced by a SSD?  How to restore the system if the recovery disk does not work?

    Hello

    You are right about the source of this problem - HP recovery media often has problems of restoring the operating system on a smaller disk in quality than appeared on.

    There are a few options available.

    1. if the 750 GB drive is still able to operate, use your recovery media to perform a factory reset and then use software (or Windows 7 own imaging utility) for this clone of your SSD.

    2 create your own recovery media to use to run the installation - it would be my personal preference.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the version exact same origin supplied with your laptop ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  • DV6-6c15nr, "the system recovery media does not support this computer."

    Hi all. I'm trying to reformat my laptop (dv6-6c15nr), but when I try to reformat to f11the recovery manager f, all options are such that the system restore and restore to factory is grayed out. The next thing I tried was a set of recovery disks. When I used the recovery disks, it showed the message "this computer does not support the system recovery media. You are not able to restore the system with the media. 0110 A601UA #ABA - A1U60AV. Why can I not reformat my laptop... I remember that I was able to reformat until I sent offshore to get the hard drive and the radiator replaced by hp year last April. Now I can't get to... that this has to do with anything? someone please help...

    I also tried without the bios downgrade F.19 REV: a. which do not help either.

    It seems that the motherboard may have been changed and the information system (tattoo) has not been updated to match that of your computer. While I can't fix this for you, I can suggest some possible solutions and I work to spare;

    (1) you can contact HP Customer Support and ask that they correct the problem.

    (2) attempt to control that recovery discs for the model of the motherboard is currently labeled as.

    (3) If you can still read the Windows product key of 25 characters on the Microsoft COA affixed on the computer, you can install Windows 7 using this key. Please see "how to install Windows 7 without the disc" to get instructions on how to download Windows 7 SP1, create the installation media and install Windows 7 SP1 using the 25-digit key from the COA Microsoft on your computer.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Using the "System recovery" Recovery Manager, it will erase the partitions?

    Hello, I was counting on the creation of a second partition for windows 7.

    What I want is two partitions one with windows 7 and one with vista. This is the easiest part.

    Now, I was planning on moving over my larger files, which is a lot of music and a lot of digital photos on the windows partition 7. Then, I wanted to clean install vista using the system recovery feature built into the computer. Now, I see it says restore my computer to default settings, but it's a little vague.

    So my question is, even with 2 separate partitions would be a system recovery remove them both and combine them into 1, just like when I got to my computer? Or would it restore my vista partition just like it was when I got it? I've really messed with the recovery of the system too, so I don't know if there is an option to select a partition, or something, I don't want to go overboard and remove my pictures and music.

    And there are a lot of things, like 50 + GB combined, it would take a lot of time to save it online, but if that's what needs to be done, so be it.

    Thank you!

    Also the laptop I use is a Hp pavilion Dv2500 with just vista on it right now.

    Hello

    The answer is no. The Recovery Manager has his job to do once tell you her to begin.

    The HP Recovery Manager will do its thing and restore your laptop provided that delivery. It is a destructive process in terms of all the space on your hard drive, except for the recovery partition. You will find yourself with a Vista partition (C and a recovery partition (D when it is done.))

    This means that when the recovery is complete and you have all the drivers loaded, you can use the Vista Disk Manager to create your partition in Win 7.

    I hope that this makes it more clear.

    Kind regards

  • NB500 - I can't do the system recovery

    Hello

    I got a nb500 Windows 7 starter and I cannot do a system recovery out-of-the-box.

    I tried "press 0 and power", the pc starts, but as long as I continue to press 0 nothing happens. When I release, it will continue to boot normally into windows. Also tried with f8, I can see the system recovery options, but there is no tool for HARD drive recovery there. I also used a toshiba recovery media Creator called program but when I start, it displays a message «there is no area of hard drive recovery»

    Any suggestions please?

    For some reason any there there no initial access to the recovery image.

    Either it is deleted or the partitions of HARD drive structure is changed and recovery tool cannot find the settings for the recovery image.
    Now, you have little problem. Recovery image installation will not work.

    You have two options:
    1 / you can try to install recovery disc original order of Toshiba - https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
