P6055d Office HP upgrade disk question of aid and recovery (Pavilion)

Hello. It seems to have misplaced my pc recovery disc and I recently found the discs 1 and 2 (dvd). I forgot how many DVDs have been used when creating recovery disc. Can someone tell the number of recovery disks created using DVD for this particular model? As I said, I didn't find that 2 recovery discs and I don't remember really there's only 2 dvds.

Also, I'm upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7 (Enterprise) and I intend to do a custom installation, including reformatting my pc. I currently have 3 partitions: drive C, the recovery partition and a partition for my documents. I was wondering what I would do when I'm updating because I'm worried that this will greatly affect my computer if I lose the recovery partition when I reformat my computer. You have an idea how I could copy the recovery partition on any other device as a drive so that I don't lose it when I upgrade to Windows 7? Note that this will be my first time change my OS by myself.

I hope I am making sense here. I hope someone can help me here. Thank you!

Lose the recovery partition is not as big a deal as determining if the recovery DVD set is over. Usually the recovery partition does not work after changing the OS anyway for most people just delete it during the installation of new.

Some systems take only 2 while others take 3 so no way to determine if your are done without having to start with them to see if they do a complete installation. Copy of the recovery partition rarely ever works. best is to test recovery set before moving to the new operating system. Save your documents on external hard drive before launching the recovery discs!

  • Question of rescue and recovery, and Client Security solution

    I have a thinkpad edge e220s for home use and I am trying to understand that these two thinkvantage tools will be of no use to me since I'm not on a corporate network or whatever it is (all marketing materials HE mentions admins etc.).

    Is the rescue and recovery just a backup solution with imaging of disk (as ghost)? I use a drobo for all my data storage, so I am not too concerned about backups as the drobo offers redundancy in the event of disk failure. The laptop has a SSD which doesn't have a lot of capacity if I don't want unnecessary tools that will have a lot of space. However if the rescue and recovery offers really useful features then I might consider its installation (and not using the backup feature). I could not make out what marketing materials meant by the solution of a single button for viruses and crashes.

    Second, the client security solution features other than Vault/Manager password on my model? I'm already using the beta version of the new (4) version of password manager which is autonomous and requires no client security solution. Again once the marketing material does not help a user at home like me understand very well.

    Any help will be appreciated!

    Based on your description I don't think rescue & recovery or Client Security Solution any value for you.

  • Need advice - questions of m8100n and stop Pavilion

    Hi all!

    I need some technical advice, because I do not know what way to go now with my m8100n Pavilion.  He began to act up in March of this year and died in total.  Once troubleshooting with support online from HP, it was determined that my motherboard (Nettle2) is bad and that it has replaced.  As it was out of warranty, we decided that a new Office was a more cost-effective solution, so the m8100n has set aside for me to tinker with later.

    Two weeks ago, I had the nerve to replace the motherboard myself.  I'm handy with all other aspects of the inside of a PC, but the motherboard was the "last frontier" for me.  I found a MCP61PM-HM on eBay that was v2.20 (thinking that the original motherboard had been improved since the v1.08 which was in my m8100n), so I bought it.  Replace the motherboard, I discovered that I had bought a Nettle3, who would continue to work with my m8100n but would lose a PCI slot.  No biggie!  I replaced the Nettle3 and all connected together and voila!  The m8100n puts as it is supposed to and no closing fast and constant.  I am a camper happy, right?

    Here's my problem: I installed Windows Vista on the m8100n using the motherboard Nettle3 (Yes, I know about the need for the new motherboard tattoo the recovery discs to work, but I wanted to use this office as a backup/file server, so I was not terribly concerned about the recovery discs) and everything seems to work very well.  However, after leaving the unit top during the night or during the day while I am at work, I find that the unit has stopped.  The green light at the back of the Unit indicates that the power supply is always powered, so I don't think that is the question.  Just for fun, I installed PC Wizard 2009 and SpeedFan to measure the temperature inside the device, and it doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.  I did the other night while I was watching TV and suddenly noticed that PC Wizard 2009 showed that Core 1 (which I suppose is one of the mainstays of my AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core 5600 processor) climbed about 25 ° C to 60 ° C and 70 ° C, then 80 c, and finally almost 90 c, while Core 2 showed a steady 15-25 ° C.  I shut down the system to avoid any damage, but now I think the unit is closing itself because the processor overheats.

    Is it possible that one of the mainstays in my Athlon is defective and it is originally the stops, or is there something else I could be dominant?  PC Wizard 2009 tensions seem to be well, and temperatures inside the case seem to happen as well.  I don't want to give up this PC, because it seems that it is something simple that I could be dominant and am thinking that I might be too close to the issue to see what is really bad, and I'm hoping to pull out of the collective wisdom in these forums.

    Thank you in advance for any advice or suggestions that you might be able to offer!

    NEW UPDATE:

    After sitting the PC side for some time over the holidays, I started to do research on the processor AMD Athlon X 2 5600 +, given that all the indications suggest a heat problem with Core 1, who was leading in the PC by stopping.  After researching this CPU Model (Brisbane), it seems that Brisbane processors have a known issue with faulty temperature sensors core, which was probably, leading to a temperature reading fake being reported and causing PC stops.  This would also explain why the radiator or the CPU were always warm to the touch just after a shutdown due to overheating occurred.  I ordered a replacement AMD Athlon X 2 5600 + (not my workhorse PC, so I didn't need to upgrade the processor) and one both installed the CPU, memory, video card, DVD-R/W and finally the hard and everything seems to work normally again.  I ran a few stress tests on the PC from one day to the next, and the max reported temperature was 45 c 42 on Core 1 and Core 2.  It seems that the issue of the arrest was related to the CPU after all!

    Thus, after the better part of a year on and off with the PC, DIY replace the original motherboard to solve the problems of power cycle that I had originally, and replacing the CPU to solve overheating and issues which occurred after replacing the motherboard seems to have given new life to Pavilion m8100n.  What will make an excellent secondary / media server PC and will compliment my Pavilion m9500t nicely.  Thanks for all your help!

  • Rescue and Recovery will restore all of the disk?

    I searched high and low for an answer to this question, but I'm not. I have use Rescue and Recovery to back up the drive of my laptop. If I have a problem of catastrophic disk, save and recovery will restore my entire drive to a new drive, including the service partition? I have a fully functional and updated disc to date after a full restore? (Guess that I restore using a floppy disk to boot Rescue and Recovery, which have I already have.)

    Well, I decided that I have a couple of hours on my hands and a fresh backup using rescue and recovery (in order to test whether or not he backs up the recovery partition) and a Windows Vista "complete PC Backup" (in this case that it fails).

    The result: Yes, when you restore a recent backup, it will also restore the recovery partition.

    I am very happy.

  • My Windows 7 upgrade disk has only 32 bits. I want to install Windows 7 64-bit. What can I do?

    Upgrade to 64 - bit with this situation?
    A few years ago, I bought a PC which has Vista installed on it, but I was given a Windows 7 Upgrade disk to install Windows 7. I was able to create a clean install with upgrade disc. Recently, I discovered that my processor can support 64-bit, so I want to go to that. Problem is the upgrade disc contains the 32-bit version, even though I believe complete dics of Windows 7 contains both versions. It does not mean that I am eligible for the 64 bit version of Windows 7? It's terribly confusing.
    What are my options for installation of 64-bit? The 64-bit version can be downloaded or something? I even use the same product key?

    Will be the product key, I received with my job to drive upgrade with the 64-bit version, I downloaded?

    Yes.

    The key of Windows 7 works with 32 and 64 bit, but can only be installed at a time.

  • I try the installation key OEM Office or upgrade to another version of Vista

    Hi, I had the same problem here.

    until someone shows me at the door, shouting that I have tried the vista OEM key to install office or upgrade to another version of vista, here are the facts:

    -C' is my work laptop.
    -It was installed with a volume work XP pro license.
    -J' changed jobs, negotiated to keep my laptop in the process.
    -I'm legitimate, I don't want the volume from my previous job license.
    -I am reloading the preinstalled version of vista from the CD supplied with the notebook microsoft (not the CD before installing, I wanted a windows clean and neat)
    -L' label on the back of the PC say "vista home premium OEMAct".
    -I am running windows vista Home premium
    -J' I updated my bios to the latest version
    -vista will not activate automatically.
    -J' tried to call microsoft for manual activation. the IDS are recognized (if you try to enter a wrong number, it is said that there is a mistake), but when I hit "next" after having typed the ID told me on the phone, I get an error indicating that the code is wrong.

    a now I get the Activation Assistant 0xC004E002 error when I try to run it.

    I don't see what I did wrong... someone has a lead what to do next, other than reinstalling windows?
    I don't want to bother to reinstall all drivers and applications (openoffice, java, firefox, xnview, avira antivir...) that I just installed.
    And I want a working solution, as I am not really convinced that reinstall windows don't lead me to the same problem on new.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    First of all-> you have a Toshiba laptop?
    If so,-> to the Vista preinstalled on your laptop is already activated!

    The key at the bottom of the device belongs to the OEM of Vista version and it is just a confirmation that you are using a legal Vista operating system.
    The key cannot be used with MS Office and other versions of Vista!

    If you want to upgrade the Vista then you will probably get a new key from Microsoft.

  • Wiping Hard Drive, Reinstalled with Windows 7 with upgrade disk product key error

    My computer has been acting upward, so I back up hard drive and erased the hard drive with the BACK CLEAN ALL command. I then reinstalled windows 7 from my Windows 7 Upgrade disk and restore my files on hard disk. The computer works fantastic and returned half of the memory of the hard drive. A few days later, I get a message on the screen that I have 30 days left until I can produce a product key from the original Windows installation, does not accept the upgrade product key.

    I tried the product key located on the bottom of my laptop for Windows Vista comes with the HP computer. It does not work and it gave me no disk backup for Windows Vista from HP.

    I called Microsoft and they told me to contact HP for the product key. I see on this forum that someone else has written a similar plea, because it is a plea, and HP said to contact Microsoft. In other words, Microsoft says to contact HP and HP says to contact Microsoft.

    I use Microsoft since Windows 3.2 operating systems and have bought a lot of products of them. It's my 3rd HP laptop, my wife is on her 2nd HP laptop. Well you know what? If I don't get this resolved quickly by one of your companies, and I'm not remember Microsoft, I'm through the two of you.

    I don't see where Microsoft is not being fooled off but when it's to the detriment of a loyal customer, so don't worry. HP is also responsible for this. An upgraded version of Windows 7 (to upgrade from Vista or XP) should be smart enough (and I thought it was) to remember that I had the original version and its product key should be enough. Also I don't never told me that I had to keep the old product keys, and it doesn't matter anyway because the product key is always available in my laptop HP, but it does not work.

    I'm not buying another HP without your help and actually buying an Apple Mac for my wife and my next computer if it is not resolved. I think that HP is probably as bad as Microsoft so that it will not be solved and I'm not shelling out more money for something I already own.

  • How do to meet the requirements of the earlier version to upgrade disk during the only copy was on HD partition?

    My Compaq computer had problems, so I tried to fix it by using the xp pro upgrade disk I used to upgrade the system initially.  It worked for a bit, but I think that there is a virus that I have not yet.  Now when I try to rerun the repair, he says, he can't find a prior instalation of winows and don't use the upgrade disk to fix.  He wants to put me in a drive containing a full operating system but my Compaq came only with installation on a partition of the HD and I don't have a full version of put in the drive to meet and start the repair.  How can I get past this so that the repair facility can run?

    You will need to find a previous CD of Windows (95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP) and provide, on demand.
