M6 Pavilion: HP Pavilion m6 Factory Image recovery fails

The hard drive has failed, so I bought a new hybrid 500 GB drive. A directed recovery disks from HP and have tried running the setup of recovery, but the process remains still stuck at 23 percent of "copy of the files needed to restore the hard disk.

I tried to reinstall about 10 times and it always gets stuck at the same stadium at 23%, and the audible DVD drive slows down or stops playback. After a few hours, it shows the message:

Copy the file fails

Of D:\PRELOAD\BASE2. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

To C:\RM\Image\BASE2. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

Press OK to retry

I cleaned the discs with a Microfiber cloth for my glasses. Original drive was 750 GB. Connected the thorough check for the hard drive in the BIOS and check the RAM. The two passes. Here is a link to the article that I bought. http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16822178339

Any help would be great

Well, I found a solution. In fact I found it weeks and there has been a lot of work.

First I asked myself, ' why is it I NEED to have a hard drive that is the same size as before or more? Well, the answer is quite simple: the only choice of HP is given to me is not to get the file .iso Windows but to get an image of Windows 7 that HP has changed with some soft/bloatware, they want to bundle with it.

Despite what says the support agent, it has no technical reason, why I can't use a smaller hard drive. The comparison of the hard drive for car engines is, frankly, ridiculous. The more appropriate analogy for the hard drive would be the gas tank and the processor is the engine. A car with a 15 gallon gas tank will operate as one with a tank of gas of 20 gallons, in the same way as a computer with a 750 GB HARD drive will work with a 500 GB HARD drive. Of course, in both cases, you won't get as much with the smaller model, but it will certainly run. In other words, unless you provide an imager that will fail if it cannot write all the 1 and 0 hard disk he wants, much as do gas pump just insert their 20-gallon fuel tank. So I said screw this dictation arbitrarily bullcrap to me what type of replacement hardware, I buy in order to use MY laptop.

Now, once I decided that these hoops with, HP and Microsoft, Setup for me to jump through is silly, I decided to make friends with a Penguin that I knew, but never talked to: Linux. This being my first time using Linux quickly led me to the selection of Ubuntu. He was surprisingly simple and easy to install. Now, most people could not understand how to do a Setup for an operating system disk, but if you know the difference between writing MP3 files on a disc and write a CD that can be used in a normal CD player, it's fine. Then, I used my wife's office to burn an installation disc, put inside and Ubuntu with happiness and flawless, himself installed on my laptop. He was ready to go with the pre-installed drivers and download the new drivers as needed during the installation after entering my password for Wi - Fi.

Things were going well, but I'm not a computer programmer or work in it and I expect a steep learning curve. Well, boy was I wrong on that assumption. Almost everything I want immediately to use is already installed. Not only that, but it is much much faster he was when he was running Windows. The only part that took a little effort to make it work was to steam, but there are step by step guides that appeared just to look for "Steam Linux Installation." For my daily (read: Netflix, web browsing, even games) it works fine. It's a little tricky with the mouse pad, but I usually use a mouse in any case. Overall, I was very happy with it.

Summary:

Because Microsoft won't distribute the .iso files directly and HP insists that give you a picture of your laptop particular there is now a user of Linux more and a less Windows user. Honestly, why they do not just offer to send a picture of a laptop, they sold with a hard drive more small is beyond me (I know, legal shenaningans). So, thank you HP and Microsoft to encourage me to learn something else and get away from buying your products. I appreciate it.

    I can help you with if you can read all 25 characters of the product key of Windows 7 on your laptop is to make your own regular W7 installation media, so at least you can get the laptop working again.

    Here is how to do this if you have the product key for W7...

    Use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a DVD or a 4 GB flash drive using the USB compilation method.

    Use the product key of windows 7 of 25 characters to activate your installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  • Pavilion laptop g7 Image Recovery file copy fails

    Material: G-7 HP laptop

    Operating system: Windows 8

    I bought a laptop Pavilion g7 in December 2012.  The 1 TB HARD disk provided with the laptop started to go bad on me.  After several attempts to "self-repair system" (which didn't) I bought a HD 1 TB Seagate SSHD replacement.  Given that I had no Windows 8 recovery disks, I contacted HP, paid for and sent them to me.

    So now I have a new SSHD, new W8 recovery discs and my laptop.  I replaced the HD and the recovery process according to the instructions of the paper that came with the disc.

    4 percent (in the "Copying files needed for the recovery of the phase of hard drive"), I get an error message:

    Reducer (the error message title)

    Copy the file fails

    From: D:/PRELOAD/votes.14. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

    To: C:/RM/Image/votes.14. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

    Press OK to retry.

    Obviously since I post this topic simply by pressing "OK to retry" did not work.  I turned off the laptop computer and restarted the process of recovery.  I had the same error at the same point above.

    I've read a few other BBs HP and see what people have done this experiment with various laptops, W7 and W8, posted the same question and had useful people respond by posting links and possible corrections.  I clicked on the links, but see not all what actually helps me 1) explain why I get this error message. and (2) what should I do to fix it.

    Appreciate any help anyone can provide, but please break it down Barney style as I am not a computer person.  Seriously, don't joke not on that - I'm weak in terms of technology.

    I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.

    Hello

    The first thing I want you to do is make sure the hard drive is working to do this, follow these steps;

    1 turn on the computer

    2. Select f2 for system diagnostics

    3. Select check disk hard, fast

    What is the result of this test?

    If this test passes means that it is likley to be the CD, I answered several questions like this one, where in fact the disks are corrupt so my Adviser is if your drive hard test passes contact HP and ask them to send a new set of replacement drives for unfortunately it seems problem common were disks do not work.

  • I went back to Dell Factory Image, which came did not restart/Inspiron 2205

    I went to Dell Factory Image recovery came with the DELL logo symbol, and goes back to Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart on a 2205 Inspiroon.   I missed something? Nothing else comes up on computer...

    Hi John,.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

    The Dell backup and restore solution is designed to provide a simple and effective way to recover from a failure of a software, or simply refresh the original operating system to the Dell factory image before the redeployment.
    To aid recovery utility and backup Dell is the fastest way to restore your computer to the Dell factory image as a re - install manual operating system (IMRT) takes longer to complete and requires additional steps.

    In addition to the reinstallation of Windows, a manual IMRT requires installation of each of the drivers of the device independently and then separately also of software. The Dell Backup and Recovery Utility creates an image of the installed operating system settings, drivers, software and system, when the user creates a backup.

    Please come back if you have problems with Windows in the future.

  • HP Pavilion Sleekbook PC 14: Recovery of Windows 8: PC in a reboot cycle?

    Laptop model: HP Pavilion Sleekbook PC 14
    Product number: C7D58PA #AKL
    The system board ID: 18F9
    BIOS version: F 18
    Editor BIOS: Insyde

    64-bit Windows 8 (I think, unless he updated to 8.1 I don't know)

    No drive CD or DVD (Ultrabook).

    It is a laptop from a friend. At one point, he pointed out that it shows just a black screen with the mouse cursor after the start it (after loading Windows 8). He has no idea of what happened before that, I read a lot of online reports of people having problems after such a broken Microsoft updates for Windows 8 or 8.1.

    Anyway, it goes well with the idea of "clean install", nothing needs to be backed up. Recovery media (USB key) was created at the time. I start the laptop with the recovery media and get to HP Recovery Manager. I select 'Factory Reset' which is supposed to erase the whole hard drive and restore the initial factory condition.

    After some time (30-60 minutes, not sure), it has completed preparations, which I assume were re - create the recovery on the hard drive partition, etc. It is said the PC will start itself several times during the recovery process, and I should not meddle. Ok then.

    After I let it continue, Notepad starts, HP logo and the circle of rotation. After a while, I see a glimpse of what appears to be an empty office of Windows and a window that says something like:

    HP laptop
    < date > < time > (e.g. 14/08/2015 11:15)
    Please wait...

    (there is a button in there I think)

    Which is available for a fraction of a second, but then the laptop restarts automatically just and this very fact time and time again, showing this dialog screen each time after you start HP logo. I waited about 8 hours, and it continued just do so that even, it seems that the recovery process is interrupted every time with a reboot. If this restart is due to a system error, where I can see the journal, IE. What is the error?

    So, what to do next? I have reset defaults in case where (though I think that nothing has ever changed in any case) BIOS, no effect. I have not tried to update the BIOS, but even if I find a new/UEFI BIOS for this laptop, I would try rather than as a last resort, or after that I have the PC back on.

    I also tried the other recovery options, lighter, ('System Recovery' and 'Reduced Image recovery') prior to "Factory Reset", but they have not yet further, I think.

    In addition, I ran a full system check in the start menu (RAM and hard drive), everything was reported as fine.

    Yet one thing that may or may not serious, in case there is a problem of Windows 8: since the PC HP is bought in Thailand, it has a cheaper, 'reduced' Windows 8 version. It's a play full version, but apparently a kind of 'reduced' version that Microsoft sells cheaper on some countries, such as the Thailand. I'm not entirely sure what the restrictions are, at least you can not change the language of Windows system after the initial selection of IIRC (when Windows 8 was executed first to complete installation preloaded, English was chosen as the language of the system).

    I mention this only because I'm not sure if it causes certain restrictions on workarounds, such as the use of some other Windows 8/8.1 recovery media created on another PC or downloaded an ISO from Microsoft, or somesuch. I have already learned the hard way that not all editions of Windows seem to be created equal with regard to the options of recovery, being able to launch the etc SafeMode (at least this was the case with my Windows 7, a lot of instructions online for just would not work on it because they are expecting boot options that simply weren't there).

    USB media recovery that I use is created initially, according to HP.

    Problem solved. Steps to follow:

    1. forget about HP recovery. Of course it does not work for me little matter how I pray, I went to come and clean up the entire hard drive of all partitions (I presume that the recovery partition went too).

    2. create the installation media Windows 8.1 with Microsoft http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media media creation tool

    I created the USB media on a USB flash drive of 8 GB on another PC. It will work and install correctly on Windows 8 system, no need to install first 8.0 and then he move to 8.1.

    3 boot from the installation media, install (I chose the option to not save or move anything old windows, after all he was not supposed to be any previous Windows installed) and a great success. I guess you have to download and install drivers from HP separately, perhaps,

    In fact, I am now upgrading to Win10.

  • Error code #0xe0f00013, using the factory image restore

    Hello world

    I've had this laptop for about 8 months. The model is HP PAVILION DV6T-4000 NOTEBOOK of NOTES,

    I'm a software developer, so I need to install Linux on this machine using dual boot.

    I created the recovery disks before installing linux.

    Once I installed linux, windows 7 has stopped working and started asking for the disc of windows 7. Using recovery discs, couldn't find an option to restore the old installation of windows 7 (these options are disabled). Other options of formatting HD and restore out-of-factory State were available. In the end, I had to select restore factory image.

    When I boot the recovery dvd and do a system restore it support all 5 discs and the 6th disc when it is 83% and is "copy files needed to restore the hard disk" it throws below error:

    "Recovery Manager is unable to restore your computer by using the original image.  Please contact HP support.  "Error code: 0xe0f00013.

    I tried to restore it 3 - 4 times, each time that the result would be the same.

    I ran HD self-test, which doesn't show any problem with my HD recovery, I created discs are cool and have no scratches. I'm not sure what the cause of this problem.

    All this raises questions under:

    (1) what is the hexadecimal code "0xe0f00013?"

    (2) once we buy a "personal" NOTEBOOK, should we not be free to install any operating according to our need?

    3) why HP does not provide with a Windows disc, and why should we depend on recovery disks, or the recovery partition; These unreliable mechanisms?

    Earlier, I had a Dell laptop that provided me with all the windows and recovery disks.

    I bought HP recovery discs. lets see if provided HP recovery disks.

    If anyone has any other work around, please help.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    There may be a work-around if you have (or can borrow) an installation disc Windows 7 at retail which is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, it comes to the retail version accurate, you would need.

    If you do not access to the retail drives, you can create an installation disk yourself - just download good picture disc from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD.

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/Download-Windows-7-ISO-official-32-bit-and-64-bit-direct-download-link...

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key located on the underside of your laptop when asked and once installation is complete, use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this 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.

  • Xoom 4 G factory Images?

    Hello

    Ago, hosted files for the Xoom (MZ600) MotoDev site, in the images of the particular plant. Several months ago the site stopped hosting these files. While some have said that the situation will be resolved by Google/Motorola when they rule on a new place to host the files, I've seen any new files to be reported upwards for downloading. The current area of developer on the Motorola site (http://www.motorola.com/sites/motodev/us-en/motodev_lp.html) does not appear to have the files I need to my Xoom.

    So my question is this: Plans to host the Xoom factory images have been cancelled or are they in an unknown part of the Motorola site?

    After you have unlocked my Xoom I tried flashing a custom recovery, but I don't think it worked correctly. As such, I would like to try flashing to the stock/factory recovery image then relock my Xoom. I'm very frustrated because what I found through multiple Google web searches is vague, outdated, or flatout evil. Any help on this is appreciated.

  • Reference helps Dell factory image restore

    I'm trying to restore my laptop (studio xps 16) settings using the recovery image. If I look in my computer, I can see C and D drives. D is my recovery with 7 GB full partition out of 10 GB. It's good and dandy except when I open drive D, there is a folder that says recovery that is empty. Why is it empty when there are 7 GB of files in there? I have already hidden files shown. I don't know how else to restore my laptop. Any ideas?

    Also, I downloaded home edition of partition Wizard, and I was able to view files on the recovery partition. For some reason any this program allows me to see, so I know they are there. But, when windows Explorer regularly to look in the folder of recovery there is no files.

    its been a while that I did it, but I will try as much as possible...

    -try to put in your drive installation and startup disk.
    -in the menu it will say install now, but at the bottom it will say fix your computer (click here)... .it should look like this
    -The command line option-click and you're ready to type a few things.
    -Make sure you have everything backed up on the disk you want to format.
    -type diskpart in the invitation of commpand and wait for it to load
    -When you can type again, type: list disk
    -type: select disk n , where n is the number of the player you want in the list before
    -now type: list partition and find the number of the partition to format
    -type: select partition n , where n is the number of the partition of the last step
    -now type: format partition n to erase all data from the partition
    This should be it for formatting the drive, now type in the command line to restore your stuff
    now, if your image is on the site of dell at the factory (d) recovery, then...
    type this: imagex/apply d:\dell\image\factory.wim 1 c:\

    He should take some time to format and restore, so please be patient
    When her if everything is done, it is not the type of output, just type exit until the command prompt window disappeared.
    you will then be back in the recovery menu, you can restart your pc (make sure that you change the boot option back to hardrive instead of "boot disk")
    and you should be done.
