My vista restore disk does not start in my computer. Is it possible to get a new drive?

Compaq PresarioSR5130NX with AMD Athlon 64 x 2 processor. Wouldn't start. Console Startup Repair did not help, not even in safe mode. Tried to restore partition, says error. Tried to restore System Restore disk. First authorized disc formatting my drive, second disk would not be executed. Now I'm stuck with no operating system and no disc to recharge. Any ideas?

Hello

You may have a hardware problem which is the cause.

You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

They should do this for a small fee.

"How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

"How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

  • Vista will not load and continually reboots, recovery disk does not start.

    I have a Dell with vista on it. Recently, it has automatically installed an update and now it does not load Windows at all. It goes to the screen where I have the opportunity to "start in safe mode" "safe mode with command promt", "last known good configuration" etc. and none of these work options (all start loading them upwards and then the computer restarts just itself).

    I tried to put in the cd of installation for vista, but it won't start. I changed the options in the BIOS so that it starts from the CD first, but then it just goes to another blue screen that says: there was some sort of system faliure, and the only option is to restart the computer.

    I also tried to connect an external dvd player to see if he was not playing the disc because of a defect in material, but the same thing happens.

    I also tried out the RAM and it put it back again (a single website suggested I try this).

    Nothing seems to work! And now, I am out of options and have no idea what to try next - help!

    http://support.Dell.com/

    If it does not start where install Recovery DVD from Dell, you will need to contact Dell at the above address.
    As you say, you have changed the boot on the appropriate drive order and still nothing

    It would seem that you have a deeper problem that just a straight reinstall the problem.

  • Missing OS... Basic Vista restore disk will not load

    I tried EVERYTHING except YOUR solution!  I'm not dummie (well, maybe), but it's me and some friends very tech savvy absolutely perplexed.

    Stage 1:   Dell Inspiron 1545.  Zero out HD.  Restore disk will not load.  Black screen States:

    Missing operating system
    Press a key to reboot_

    Scene 2:   Windows 7 (not a working copy) does very well, but not Vista Basic.  XP (again, not a working copy)almost loaded!  I even tried loading Vista on Win7 nothing helps.  Lived all the NTLDR missing, etc., has visited several Q / a forum... you're my last shot at this!  I even tried restoring disks from my other laptop (Toshiba), knowing full well, it produces no result... there not!  lol HD and motherboard are beautiful - I AM able to load OS to 'other' guys... Superblock is now ultimately nonexistent.

    Final:   Current situation: Zero out Once AGAIN , tried to install it, HD has failed.  A ran bootfix and installed SMTDRV.  Always the same black screen and invites as stated above, when you try to load Vista.  The thing F12, the same result.  DVD is fine.  The done of F2 and load default.  Guess that that same result.

    I have Win7, but the funds just aren't there.  I am a student (ISS), but my University is not offered at the discount of Win7.  Please help me to recover my Vista!  Thank you, thank you, thank you... in advance!

  • Win 7 repair disk does not start

    H8 1380 t CTO, Intel i7 3820 processor. 10 GB of DDR3 Ram PC3-12800 memory. FRIEND bios (UEFI), Version 2.14.1219 (current).
    Pegatron Motherboard-IPIWB-PB (Pittsburg) Audio Beats. AMD, the Radeon HD 7570 1 GB graphics card.

    I need some advice:

    Can you direct me to a HP solution or tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    I opened Control Panel - backup and restore and set up a backup schedule Win 7. Created a backup drive, and according to the instructions, a system image on a separate hard drive. This has been created successfully.

    I have so successfully by the operating system, created an ERD in Windows 7 bootable, the screen guests said that this disc could be used to start the computer when you cannot start the operating system due to serious errors. This disk allows you to restore the system from a system image created using backup and restore or use other recovery tools to correct the problem that prevents windows from starting.

    The system does not start on this disc. I did two restorations of the factory and went through the steps above, five times without success.

    When you try to start the system with the Windows 7 repair disk the following steps were taken:

    1 Win7 disc repair, system rebooted, you press ESC, selected the Boot Manager, select DVD disc and received the following message: boot nonsystem disc error.

    2 rebooted system. escape, Startup Manager, then selected sata2 with no luck. Same error message as in (1).

    Thank you

    Hi Dave,.

    Thanks again for your help.

  • Recovery disk does not start

    I'm helping a friend with his HP CP61-313US laptop. Somehow, it's not boot from the hard drive. It attempts to load Windows, then crashes, gives me the black screen where you can choose the safe mode, safer networking, etc.

    He will not start in safe mode or other options. It does not start from the last good configuration.

    I ordered the HP recovery discs and disc inserted one of the stimulus. It won't boot from the CD. I went into the bios options and set the CD drive as the first option. I did both of in the settings BIOS F10 and F9 startup command settings. I hear work the CD player, but he keeps trying to boot from the hard drive.

    I never get a message that says something like "press any key to boot from the CD-ROM."

    Is there anything else I can do to force startup from the CD/DVD?

    Is it possible that I can copy this HP on a flash drive recovery myself and try to boot from a flash drive. I guess it is possible that the DVD/CD player is broken. My friend who owns the computer used rarely to the reader.

    Is there some other bios setting I can use? Either by the way, I ran the memory and hard drive diagnostics and they passed.

    I have determined that the DVD drive on this laptop is bad or is about to fail. I tried to create a Windows repair CD and was able to read the CD. It would give me the message "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" that I was not getting with restore disks factory HP. I put restore HP factory disks in another computer and tried to copy them. I thought that, perhaps, if my drive was any failure there is something on the factory records it would not read but maybe a freshly burnt disc copy can read. It would be almost from the start. He would try and then getting errors of e/s on the copied version of the disc. I came to the conclusion that I could find other uses for a drive DVD external USB and since they were only $40 I have advanced and bought a. I now restore since the original HP recovery discs successfully using the external DV

    Key USB D. I had to upgrade the bios to boot from the DVD USB drive, but it seems to work. So you can consider my original request as 'resolved', but I can't speak for other users who have hung on this thread. But if someone has trouble with their discs original HP, I would suggest trying to make a copy of their, and maybe a copy will work. The copy almost worked for me.

  • Is it possible to get a new drive for Vista?

    I am attacked by a very damaging virus and decided to reinstall Windows Vista.  I have a Vista upgrade version.  I already reinstalled XP but now I can't find my Vista disc or product key label.  I write the product ID Vista before reinstalling.  Is there anyway to get a picture of disc/new of an installation of Vista with my code?  Microsoft can do that?

    What needs additional parts team is the product key. The alphanumeric code with 25 characters appearing on the certificate of Authenticity sticker attached to the housing of the cd the best retail.

    If what you have is a 20 digit (PID) code find computer properties folder, I fear that may not work.

    At least get your CD case so that they can better help to get a new drive.

    I found the answer on the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

    The article is also for Vista.

    I also received my HP Factory disaster recovery disks it looks they will work if I need.
