Options in the dialog grayed out Recovery Manager!

Hi all. I have a HP Pavilion series g laptop running Windows 7 Premium (64-bit) edition.  A while ago, I added a Linux OS as a second operating system. Now, I want to reset my laptop to factory setting. I can't find the Recovery Manager folder in the start menu > all programs, but I can get by F11 or start > search. However, the dialog box has most of the options (including the restore the system to factory setting) gray (i.e. When I move my mouse over the options, nothing happens, they don't is highlighted, so cannot be chosen. Only two options that are highlighted (can be selected) are those that show how to contact technical support and one running a disk check. I can see the recovery partition when I go on my computer, although doing a right click on it does not give me the option to make the active drive. Your help will be greatly appreciated please. Thank you

  • 3110em: HP recovery partition exists, but the recovery of the system in the grayed out Recovery Manager?

    I have a hp recovery partition on my laptop, and I want to recover my PC.

    I go into the Recovery Manager, windows system restore is available, but the HP system recovery is grayed out and unavailable.

    I don't know what to do, is partition recovery for windows 7, but since I upgraded to Win8.1, I had a lot of problems, and I want to go back.

    Please help me if you can.

    The system recovery option means that it seems to be corruption or another problem with the score of recoveryt.

    As is the case, then you would use the recovery (USB or a game disc) media, you have already created to perform the recovery.

    If you have not created a recovery media, you will need to order a recovery USB stick (preferably) or a record of recovering HP or HP partner. The cost is usually about $30,00 USD

  • can not get the color option in the dialog box print in snow leopard w/epson

    I upgraded to snow leopard and then updated

    my printer epson 595 driver. but when I go to print, the print dialog box print settings has no color option. It is grayed - out any of my old settings or type of paper I use.  called Epson and they had opened something in preview.  I have the color option, they say it's a prob of pshop.  any ideas?

    no color prob.jpg

    Well, for a 'proper' color workflow, when you choose Photoshop to manage colors (and select the correct destination profile) you are supposed to choose without color management in the Epson driver. (which is now indicated by the parameter of color being disabled... I guess) there are a number of sites that go through the steps of printing from Photoshop for an Epson, but I don't know if they have this covered new behavior.

    You must use the exact installation file that corresponds to your serial number.  of course, the versions must match.

    a little less obviously an acrobat pro installation file must be used with a number of pro series, and if a serial number is a sequence that includes acrobat, you must use the installation files on.

  • How to extend my drive C use unallocated space on my drive hard if the option "extend volume" is grayed out?

    I'm trying to erase my drives and have a clean reinstall of Windows 7. Endless hedges have attempted to quit of me, whose latest is my drive C is not able to use the unallocated space that was once my D drive (now deleted).

    I am interested in disk management and you can see my drive C, BDEDrive (I don't know what it is and can't get a straight answer on it as of yet), unallocated and free space (I do not understand the difference between space and unallocated space) in that order.

    I want a big C 1 TB drive, but can't seem to extend the C drive currently because it is grayed out.

    SOLVED!

    [for reference]
    It's also easy to move the startup information in the BDEDrive and giving the computer reboot, and then delete the BDEDrive. After that, the free space can be deleted (it becomes unallocated) and all unallocated space can be swallowed up by the C drive now that the option "Extend Volume" became available.

  • Anyone see the option to transfer disabled/grayed out in the latest iOS 9.3.1?

    I used handoff successfully for a long time until this week. All the settings on Mac are correct for both 9.3.1 iOS (iPhone 6 Plus) and MacOS 10.11.4 have the same credentials to iCloud. However on my iphone iOS, the transfer option (under settings > > General > > Handoff & App Suggestion) is grayed out. Have power rolled my phone once or twice without success.

    Also I was wondering, and by checking with my enterprise IT if MDM provisioning profiles limit the transfer feature? To prove otherwise, anyone else seen this problem? I did a google search and see no others have reported the same problem.

    You say that you rolled your iPhone power nothing works. Did you do a reset? Hold the sleep and wake buttons at the same time... continue pressing the two buttons until the Apple logo appears. This usually fixes most of my problems.

    Hi lisap1110,

    It is recommended that you uninstall the printer from your computer and then download and install the latest driver from the Canon Website:

    https://www.USA.Canon.com/Internet/portal/us/home/support/details/printers/inkjet-multifunction/MX-s...

    This should give you the option to print double-sided again.
