P2-1120: Windows repair disk
My computer Windows 7 needs a repair disk to initialize, but I can't do the him since he cannot start... My other computer is a windows 10 and I wonder if a repair made a computer disc windows 10, be compatible with a Windows 7?
Hello;
Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
I read your post about needing a Windows repair disk and wanted to help.
Sorry, but from what I remember, the Win10 option is to create a recovery disc - and is supposed to be written on a USB key.
If your Win7 PC can boot on USB, you can give it a try.
But if it does not, the ISO file to create a repair CD Win7 can be obtained (with supplement) from this link: http://neosmart.net/blog/2009/windows-7-system-repair-discs/
When you download this file, it will be an ISO file.
To make a CD bootable it, you will need to download and install ImgBurn. Once you have installed, run, select the option "Save image to disk file" and select the downloaded ISO file and that it points to a blank CD.
To make a USB bootable of it, you will need to download and install RUFUS. Once you have that, it is executed in the input of the unit, use the drop down menu to select the USB stick. Near the bottom right, where is written 'Create a bootdisk to aid', select the ISO file downloaded.
Then the media start and run Startup Repair three times - that's right, three times - as it takes three passes to repair all files of the boot loader.
IF it works, when you delete the media and reboot, you should then start a Windows desktop computer.
Good luck

I need run windows repair disks, my question is
simply make the repair disks, or is there a preparation to do before hand?
Brent,
Personally, I always make a picture of my C:\ drive system & update backups of files on my data disk before performing any repairs. While I couldn't find that something is wrong during a repair, the potential is always there.
You don't mention why you repair your system.
I noticed that you write "disks" - in the plural. Are you referring to the Windows 7 system repair disc [this is a specific element by using the link in the opening of the Windows backup window & there is just a single not many] or some other discs to repair such as records made by using a utility from the manufacturer of the PC, backup-restore application provider or provider of anti-malware application?

How to make a recovery disk or possibly to do a windows repair disk?
Compaq presario CQ60 notebook pc. Processor AMD Athlon dual-core QL-62. Microsoft windows vista version/version 6.0 service pack 2. 32 bit
Hello:
You can make recovery DVD by going to the menu all programs and find the HP Recovery Manager program where there should be a line to make recovery disks. Carefully follow the instructions that you only get one chance to make them.
You can do a repair or reinstallation of Vista disk by reading the info below. You can only use the disc to reinstall Vista if you can read the product key microsoft complete 25 characters on the label stuck on the bottom of your laptop.
If you are in a fault light but rewarding you can do yourself if you can read your product key of Vista on the PC of 25 characters.
If you can read your 25-character product key MS, you can make your own Windows Vista installation disc. You just download the 3 files you need on the link below and read all the instructions to create a Setup bootable DVD disk using imageburn.
Do not take into account the part of the text in the first screen shot about "extract the files in the folder of Vista."
The files were extracted already in this folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screenshot.
The other thing I noticed is on the 4th page, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in me, and then other codes already filled in.
When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message on a WIM file, file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.
I selected no, make the ISO file.
It was not so hard to do. I burned both the disk of 64-bit and 32-bit disk in case I ever need them.
I tested both of them one my hp dc7100 CMT desktop PC, worked flawlessly.
When you enter the product key, he knows which version of Vista you have.
After you install Vista successfully, you can then install the drivers for your PC and driver page support.

Repair disk created with backup/restore of Windows 7 will not work
I have a new HP Desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. It is using UEFI firmware and GPT disks. I created a repair (CD) disc using Windows 7 backup and restore program. The CD filled very well. However, when I try to boot from the ERD, I get an error message and it won't work. Does anyone have any ideas / solutions?
Moreover, I have a HP laptop and create a repair disk and boot from it works very well. He is also running Windows 7 Pro, but isn't using UEFI firmware.
Thanks for any help.
Ron
1 topic of UEFI - see this thread for a solution. Read the first response of Samuel Tai & continue downwards.
2 on UEFI - here's a thread that refers to images & repair discs & DVD system - system recovery CD made by the installation of the UEFI does not start
3 UEFI - there could be other useful UEFI threads in the forum but I don't know enough to judge.
4 on Recovery DVD - the term is often used quite loosely to mean a floppy disk with drivers above but, assuming it is an export of DVD of the restore partition factory created by using a utility from HP which clearly indicates that it is a tool for this precisely, so he could fall foul of the same show UEFI as far as I know. If it wasn't the UEFI, I would say, Yes, it's true.
5 on Recovery DVD - just my prejudice here but not the HP utility allows you to create a unique instead recovery USB? I think it would be more reliable because it would be difficult to break by sitting on it and it would be faster in use. It goes the same for installation DVD/USB [I even transferred my system repair disc to a USB].

My computer is slow, so I did a repair disk with disk utility. It shows the following message: WARNING: SUID "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" file has been modified and will not be repaired.
This is what significantt and what I need to do.
In addition, anyone recommend a good antivirus, malware application; or is the system Mac enough? Wharton could I do for optimization?
1. it is normal. You need not do anything.
2. unless you use Windows on the computer or often to share files with computers running Windows, it just Synchronize Mac OS X and use your common sense.

Hello
· Are you able to start on the computer?

· What anti-virus program do you use?
Follow these methods and check if that helps:
Method 1:
I suggest you to download and run the latest Microsoft security on your computer Scanner and check if it helps:
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: the data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.
Method 2:
I suggest you install the latest anti-virus Microsoft Security essential on the computer program and check if it helps.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/security-essentials
Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 3:
If you have Windows XP CD you can try to check and scan of System File Checker running if this can help.

It is originally the screen system 'black '.

Repair disk - HP Envy23 errors
When I turn on my computer there is a message 'Auto repair Preparation' and then it turns to "diagnose your PC" then "repair disk errors, it can take more than an hour to fill," I had the computer on keep nearly 3 hours and above just messages reappear with appearing to do repairs. What can I do? Any suggestions?
Thank you
Hello longfram,
Thank you for responding to my message asking for additional information. I looked in your question, and it seems that if you have a bootable Windows 8 repair disc, you can run it and fix your Windows 8. Otherwise, if you turn off your computer and once it's off you hold down F11 key and press the button while continuing to hold down the key F11 you will bring up the system recovery that will repair your computer at factory.
NOTE: BE WARNED THAT THIS WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING, INCLUDING YOUR PERSONAL FILES!
It would seem that your operating system it corrupt. If you have the knowledge and the ability to back up your files by putting the hard drive, I would recommend that you do otherwise if your personal files are large enough you can bring your computer to a local computer repair shop and save your files for you.
I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Windows hard disk error message
I just got a strange error message that popped up while I was surfing around Facebook. Before you do anything, I want to be sure that it is legitimate and not somebody trying to make me install a virus or something like that. And if it is legitimate, I want to know what I would do to this topic.
The error message says:
"Windows has detected a hard disk problem.
Back up your files immediately to prevent loss of information, and then ask the computer manufacturer to determine if you need to repair or replace the disk. »
Then it gives me two options:
"Start the backup process."
"Ask me later".
If the drive fails before the following caveat, you may lose all the programs and documents on the disk. »
So, if I click on the button "Show invisible characters", he says:
"For immediate action."
Because a disk failure will make you lose all programs, files and documents on the disk, you should back up your important information immediately. Try not to use your computer until you have repaired or replaced the hard drive.
Which drive is a failure?
The following hard disks are fault condition:
Name of the disk: Seagate FreeAgent XTreme
Volume: I:\ »
I am running Windows Vista 64-bit and the hard drive in question is a disk Seagate external, as indicated by the error message. Also I screenshotted the message box if this description was not good enough.
Hello
Disk problems can take seriously very quickly so I carefully check the disc now and do not forget
to keep redundant backups of your important data (use several methods).Inside the Windows - Regular or Safe Mode (repeatedly press F8 as you start).

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.
Bought a WD a terabyte HD Executed a copy sector by sector, using Paragon... It was quick (about ten minutes-amazing) and I answer to you, now, using the WD HD clone.
Awesome! I finally took possession of this computer.
I would say that the problem has been resolved. Windows 7 repair disc will not work on EFI systems and here's workaround.
Thanks again.

I have a laptop ASUS K50IN with recovery partition windows preinstalled on the hard disk (Windows 7, Home Premium edition, 64 - bit).
I formatted the entire hard drive with Lubuntu installation dvd, I used Lubuntu, for a few weeks with success.
(I used a removable drive for installation.)
After that, I wanted to do a dual-boot system (windows-ubuntu).
I deleted the windows install Summary Lubuntu with recovery partition, so I downloaded a version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit and burned to dvd (I have my product key from the back of the machine). Downloaded from: msft.digitalrivercontent.net.
I deleted the partitions lubuntu until windows install with windows dvd, made a partition for windows (with the 100 MB system reserved required),
and began the installation process which took place successfully, but it failed to restart after the installation. As much as I remember came problems.
I had a few bad boots, but I managed to run the new windows 7, made some configurations, programs installed on it. I always have problems with reboots. (It was stable when I have manged to get into windows itself.)
I searched the net and found that ubuntu uses grab as boot loader, and it isn't getting deleted with the simple formatting even with a windows installation.
I tried to repair the boot loader of windows to the Master Boot Record by running the command from the windows installation disk prompt (many tries to start).
I tried these commands unsuccessfully:
/fixmbr Bootrec.exe,
/FixBoot Bootrec.exe,
/RebuildBcd Bootrec.exe,(by the way these commands responded succession of repair)
Bootsect/nt60 SYS/MBR,
list not found no operating system compatible hits.(Auto repair could not fix problem.)
Then I used DBAN to completely wipe my drive.
I used the values in interactive mode (PRNG:mersenne twister, method: DoD short, collar to check: last).
Ran for 9 hours, crushed 3 times, has completed successfully without errors.
I read that it removes the MBR sector too.
I tried to start the windows installation disc, and it shut my computer when it arrives at the end of the second bar with "WINDOWS IS LOADING of FILES.
Same problem with the installation of ubuntu dvd.Same problem with the DBAN disk.
Same problem when booting from the hard drive.
Keeps turning itself off in unpredictable ways. Sometimes, I managed to get in installation disc menus, then comes the turn off.
Above all it stops early in the boot process.
Hello fatou,.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you. I appreciate the step by step troubleshooting, and pain that you have taken to resolve your problem.
