New HD: The recovery partition restore

Hello

I'm trying to upgrade my hard drive of 3000 N200 to a bigger, faster disk (250 G).

I find the recovery (startup Lenovo care button) of a big utility feature, because I'm a computer technician and my system has to be reinstalled frequently.

My question is: How can I migrate the recovery on my new drive partition.

I used Symantec Ghost to clone disk to disk (I put the two in a desktop PC and copied directly from 1 in the other), but let the ghosts to change the size of the data partitions (to my knowledge, ghost has kept the same size of the hidden recovery partition).

But when I try to boot from the recovery partition, I block just after the choice of the F key (where I pressed F11) on a white screen.

I saw a few disks and restore discs can be, but I would use the recovery partition as it is autonomous and always with the computer by definition.

Is there a way to get things to work on the new drive.  I have access to the old drive as it still works OK, so slow.

Thanks for the information

Marc

The recovery disks will also be the partition of service during the installation process

  • Q: How do I restore from USB if the recovery partition is deleted?

    Hi, make a backup of my spectrum 14 of jealousy cumputer Windows 7 on a USB stick with hp Recovery Manager. After that I deleted the restore disk partition and installed Windows 8. Now have sleep/power issues on Windows 8, need to go back to 7 can I test before sending it in for repair.

    Even if I did a backup USB, of bus I can't boot from the USB and the ect/f11 option at startup, does nothing, yet windows just starts.

    Now, how can I restore from a USB Pendrive without having access to the F11 restore the disk option, how to reinstall System Restore?

    Hello

    A backup is not a clone. You have cloned partition to a USB bootable for her to work.

    The HP Backup & Recovery Manager does not copy the recovery partition, even if you back up the entire hard drive.

    Here is a reference for the HP Recovery Manager manual.

    Unless you do a recovery as a DVD or USB media, the only source for what is available to you is to buy a set of recovery disks.

    I would like to have better news for you on this subject.

    Best regards.

  • Try to restore from the recovery partition

    I'm trying to restore my laptop to its original state by using the restore partition.  I formatted the C drive, but the recovery partition was left in place.  Is there a way to do this?  I, unfortunately, do not appear to have the recovery CD I did a disk with Acronis image that seems to be a joke as it will not restore anything.  Would appreciate any advice you can give me at this point.

    My laptop was a Vista Home, if that helps.

  • Satellite C650 14U: recovery media creates the recovery partition?

    Hello, I used the recovery media creator to create a USB flash drive recovery media.

    If I can use that to restore Windows 7 installation on a new hard drive (as the SSD) will be the drive itself have the recovery media on that partition?

    So if I then lose the USB could restore again by pressing zero when turn?

    Or it does not retrieve the Windows partition and nothing more?

    Thank you

    First of all, the new hard drive itself has no partition recovery on it. The recovery partition is a copy of the system partition and locates at another location, therefore, restored from a recovery media unit contains just the partition system without recovery partition.

    Second, if you have a recovery on a local disk partition, you can always restore by pressing zero when power on/off. If this isn't the case, I am sorry to say that you don't you have no source of food.

    In third place, somehow, we can say that it only retrieves the system partition.
    PS: just my personal knowledge.

  • x 360: delete the recovery partition after installing Linux

    Hello

    My x 360 laptop with 10 Windows works fine. I just installed Linux dual boot (w. Windows 10) on three new partitions. The scores are as below. E, F, G partitions are Linux.

    I have these questions please:

    1. is the recovery partition (D) no longer, now that I have partitioned the disk? (I did a recovery USB flash drive when I bought the computer)

    2. is it safe to remove the recovery partition (D)?

    3. There is also a small partition of 980 MB. What is c? Is it safe to remove?

    Thank you

    YCC

    Sorry, no.  You can not recover by using the HP Recovery partition after you change the partitioning scheme.

    As it is now, you might as well delete it.

    It will not hurt to remove it now because the HP Recovery works doesn'y work in any case.

    I know Macrium Reflect can backup and restore Windows and Linux distros because I have tried it, myself.

    Good luck

  • Is it possible to recreate the recovery partition?

    I have this satellite plu pro which used to have as usual, a recovery partition on the HARD disk to restore to factory settings. I created a backup disk (in fact, I created it on a USB key) using the Toshiba backup disc authoring program then wiped the drive HARD clean, including the recovery partition. I have come to the point now, but where it would be useful to have that DOS partition and I wonder if it is possible to restore it to how it was originally?

    On the top of my head, I thought that maybe all I would need to do was wipe the HARD drive again, he re-partition, and then create a new partition, call the recovery and then simply copy the content of the key USB/disk backup for this partition. It would even work, or I have to do anything in particular. Assuming that it is even possible with this method?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You can't do anything manually. If you want to have "initial state" again only thing to do is to reinstall the original recovery image using a created recovery media.

    Before installing recovery image starts the disk HARD integer will be removed, new partitions created recovery image is copied on the HARD disk and as final step recovery image is installed.
    Recovery of installation image and you will have "factory settings" again.

    You cannot restore the recovery partition. It can be restored if you use the DVD of initial recovery for the installation of the OS. In this case, everything will be like before.

  • F11 HP recovery does not start in the recovery partition

    Hello!

    I am an owner of a HP Mini 5101. It has a function to press F11 to restore the system to the State "out-of-the-box". But my problem starts here. When I press F11 I immediately get a screen that says boot Windows on top manager and and error: 0xc000000e and required device is inaccessible.

    This started after I made an installation "clean" with the Windows 7 DVD that came with the computer I have tried to avoid all the "crapware" that comes with the new book.

    If I boot into Windows, the HP_RECOVERY partition is visible and the image of HP recovery is about it.

    Is there anyway to get the recovery of F11 back to operational status? I have a few BCD edition knowledge that help to my problem...

    Thank you very much!

    U

    I thank very you much for getting back to me so quickly.

    I must apologize because I did not explain my problem in the right way. Technically, I am able to the boot partition, but the problem occurs when the partition must start in WinRE or WinPE, I guess that for the recovery to start. The loading process is immediately blocked same front initially than anything "things related Windows" starts loading. So about five seconds after I turn on the computer and boot into the recovery partition, or by pressing F11 error that I have described will appear.

    Update:

    I managed to solve my problem. After setting the active recovery partition and boot from the USB installation with windows 7, I managed to fix the mbr which has been altered and the score did not know what to start. So after fixing it, I had no problem to start the recovery.

    Thank you!

    HP web site does not list my computer and I think I need to order a set of recovery from my web research disc, but I'm going in circles on the HP web site trying to find out where to order or send an email to technical support. Looks like HP wants just to sell their hardware and then completely dump you after disregarding needs later? I am very frustrated with HP because it seems that if you have not purchased the equipment in the last 90 days you're in their "rearview mirror" when it comes to help?

    I still have to call their phone support since I had 'experience' with their offshore support in the past and would really like to avoid new frustrating experience with the entire HP support system.  Why can't I just ask a question and get a resolution - is it too ask?  Apparently Yes...

    Can anyone help me to get what I need to replace the recovery on my desktop computer partition and get it all working properly again? Thank you in advance for any help that will help solve this problem. Robert

    Well, since the computer came with Vista, then the recovery partition will be of no other value to reinstall Vista, which I assume is not what is wanted.  If the Windows 7 install disk is always available, then reinstall Windows 7 on this disc and new departure.  Was the original Vista 32 bit and the new Windows 7 64-bit, so is not "upgrade was/is possible, but a new install anyway."  As the other 64-bit programs have been added after the upgrade to Windows 7, installers will need to be rerun to get install them after you have reinstalled Windows 64-bit.  Otherwise, the Acronis image can be used.  Unless HP has published this same model computer with Windows 7 64-bit, there is no HP support and hense no recovery partition. Sorry

  • M6-1035dx Pavilion: clone SSD drive cannot locate the recovery Partition

    I recently bought a HD 500 GB of SSD to replace the original that came with the laptop.  The SSD drive I bought is slightly smaller than the original one.   I used the cloning software is Macrium.  Partitions, I am interested in cloning are the HPTools and recovery.  Stand have been cloned successfully by the software.  I put the active recovery as well.

    After swapping the drives, the system starts the HPTools immediately, but the options for the restoration part are "grayed out".  I can't access it.  I tried several times, and this is where I am stuck.  It seems that the recovery partition is not detected by the cloned HPTools.

    I do not have the recovery DVD, but I have the original HD with partitions intact and they work just fine because I recently test the recovery process.

    I missed well to clone the original HD somehow that the SSD is unable to detect the partition?  Maybe I missed a step?  The difference in the size of the hard drive causes a problem in the recovery process?  How can I remedy the situation and use my new SSD?

    Thank you for all your advice.

    Try the complete sector-by-sector disk cloning.  If you use Macrium, you will need a paid version. The free version just do enough for the advanced cloning procedure you need.  See the following web document to compare versions.

    http://www.Macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx

    BTW, an SSD detects nothing. This is the BIOS and the operating system that detects hardware, firmware and software.

    You can use HP recovery media successfully on an SSD or not, that has at least 160 GB of capacity. Your 500 GB SSD certainly has enough capacity.

  • recover from the recovery partition

    I found several entries by searching in the forum, but nobody seems to be similar to my problem:

    I want to recover my windows vista system partition using the partition recovery on my T61p.

    It worked very well for me last time. But in the meantime I installed Ubuntu which was installing the grub loader, I think that what causes the problem all to rewrite the mbr.

    By pressing the Thinvantage key while booting does not show me the usable entries. If I boot from the Thinkpad - Recovery Boot disk iexpect only after pressing 'next' linux partitions and data will be deleted also.

    But especially as I could finally recovery... "Select the partition you want to use as the system partition" or another message like this.

    I remember, I was delighted when I saw this message. Because at the time, I was doing this I was expecting something like that. But today, that would be great, I don't have to reinstall Linux.

    Can you please tell me how I'm going to continue?

    Thank you

    For 3 or 4 days I'm looking a solution for my problem.

    I tried many things and spent a lot of time reading about similar issues.

    Windows Vista Ultimate on my T61p is not able to upgrade to SP1. I did it via ThinkVantage System Update, Windows Update function function and I downloaded the SP1 of Microsoft.com.

    Meanwhile my games installed do not work, I reinstalled them and then got an error message like: ereg.exe does not work.

    Installation completed then and I got the same error as before, at the start of the game.

    I had a serious accident before 4 months and I spent all the time in hospitals. My only satisfaction now is my new T61p and I don't get to work.

    PROBLEM:

    Maybe I did something wrong before update so I tried to use the recovery feature to set windows to the same status as when I got the laptop.

    I tried using the CD Boot Vista added, disk 1-c and the last c. I also tried using the recovery partition which I did not have to work when I started this thread.

    During this time I installed the rescue and recovery 4.2 and now he got the correct menu entry. When I select this function (F11) starting the computer was 'normal' and I had the selection of GRUB menu...

    I also found a scandiskpatch.exe which should correct some problems of RnR using Vista and 4.2 RnR. But when I doubleclick on it, I get a message that my computer do not have good condition for the correction of program (or something else, I use the German language pack.

    I want to restore my computer, and then try to update and if this doesn't work I still will have to find a solution for this.

    Please help me with this very annoying problem.
