Pavilion 15 laptop: Recovery USB drive: size adequate, can it be calculated from used space

Hello

I have a workbook (new), and the system has just updated to W10 threshold release 2. I had the laptop with a 1 TB drive. Is there a report/calculation of compression that can tell me if I have so much disk space used = size of the flash drive to buy?

I want to buy a decent flash player, there is a quite a price difference between 16/32/64 GB.

Thank you

When you start the HP Recovery Media Creator, he will tell you what storage capacity must have the USB flash drive.

It will be a requirement of storage 16 GB or 32.

  • No option to create recovery/usb drives

    I used my x 220 laptop for a year now and I am trying to port my OS on to a new drive mSATA I recently installed, but cannot create recovery disks to do this. I use rescue and recovery 4.5 for windows 7, but I don't see any option to create recovery/usb disks. I see only options to create a backup of my regular HARD drive and "create recovery media", which only seems to copy the service program of rescue and recovery, thinkvantage on the USB. I know that data that are installed on the USB key is not correct because it is about 500 MB, while I've read online that the complete recovery disk should take about 8.4 GB. I also know that I never created before recovery disks. Y at - it something that I'm missing is not let me create these disks?

    is there an easier way to do this?

    It's been a while since I've done it, but it worked in all situations where I tried: call Lenovo support and declare that you are unable to create recovery discs. There are several legitimate reasons to do this, for example from my experience...

    1. my X61s did not come with a DVD player and I don't have a DVD USB drive connected.

    2. my T60p reported all kinds of program errors when I tried to use the utility provided to create diskettes.

    3. an another ThinkPad (don't remember the model number) had a HD crash under warranty. Lenovo sent me a replacement HD but I had no recovery discs. (I had backups Acronis full score but Lenovo didn't and I didn't volunteer).

    4. one of my friends refused the license agreement for Windows on its ThinkPad. Instead, he decided to try Linux. After a few weeks of frustration with Linux, he decided to return to the Windows fold. Since he had not accepted the license to the first start agreement, it had been unable to create recovery discs.

    If your system is under warranty in my experience that Lenovo will send you a set of toll-free recovery disks. You may need to be a little persistent, but as long as you keep it clean, you should get them. Note however the last time I did that was at least 3 years ago so their policy may have changed. Also note that, in any case, my request is legitimate. YMMV.

  • NB100-125 - I can copy recovery USB drive?

    Hello world!

    First of all, sorry for my bad English.

    I have a Toshiba NB100-125 that came with installed perfect Windows XP Home Edition. All good, but I decided to install Windows 7 on it.
    OK, he ran on this subject, but I think it was a little heavier than XP, so I decided to go back to XP...

    And here's the interesting part:
    I've not yet seen an external CD/DVD, so I won t be able to do with the recovery disk.
    I tried to copy the files from the recovery on a USB flash drive disk, but it didn t started from it :(
    Tried about 10 different methods and nothing worked, didn t want to boot from the flash...

    Please help me, I can t find an external CD/DVD and I want to reinstall XP using the original recovery disk that came with it

    :(

    Hello

    In my opinion, this will not work.
    Of course, you can boot from a USB key, but I think that you can not copy the simple of a disc of Windows XP on USB flash drive and then boot from it

    But you can do this:
    You can create a USB bootable using BartPE or WinPE flash drive.
    Then you could start the NB100 using the USB flash drive.
    Then copy file i386 disk Win XP on the HARD drive.
    Finally, navigate to the i386 folder and start the installation of Windows XP by using the winnt.exe command

  • Impossible to create recovery USB Drive After Win 8.1 pass on Lenovo Twist

    After the upgrade to Win 8.1 and try to create the recovery usb disk, I get this error:

    "We cannot create a disc of reccovery on this PC. Some required files are missing. To trouble shoot startup of your PC problems, use your installation window or media disc»

    Can some give me a clue as to how to solve this problem? THX.

    Hello

    Just to be sure, is actually the error code 608AJW-7ANB8 K - MFPV6K - 60UK03?

    If this is the case, it is a disk failure short self-test and would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.

    If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disk replaced - if necessary, you can check the status of your warranty here.

  • My computer Toshiba Satellite keeps the 'blue screen' and that is to say that it is caused by "a problem with a USB driver. How can I fix it?

    Resolve a problem with a USB driver

    You have received this message because your universal serial (USB) bus driver caused a stop error, also known as a blue screen error. This error means that the computer has stopped abruptly to protect against potential corruption of data or loss.

    What is a driver?

    A driver is software that allows your computer to communicate with hardware or devices. Without drivers, the hardware you connect to your computer (for example, a video card or a webcam) may not work properly.

    The recommended steps that follows can help to eliminate this problem, or at least reduce its frequency. Try them in the order listed. If a step cannot solve or reduce the problem, then move on to the next.

    Steps to fix this problem

    1. Adjust your computer's power settings

      The following power settings may help reduce the frequency of this problem.

      1. Turn off the USB selective suspend setting:

        1. Click on the Start button .

        2. In the search box, type power options, and then press ENTER.

        3. Find the plan selected, and then click change plan settings.

        4. Click change advanced power settings.

        5. Double-click the USB settings , and then double-click on USB selective suspend setting.

        1. Click on the Start button .

        2. In the search field, type power options, and then press ENTER.

        3. Under Preferred Plans, ensure that High Performance is selected, and then close the window.

    2. Look for an update of the BIOS for your computer system

      Several computer manufacturers whose computers have this problem published BIOS updates to fix this known issue. Contact your computer manufacturer to see if a BIOS update is available for your computer model.

      What is the BIOS?

      The basic input/output system (BIOS) is software built into a computer that runs when the computer is turned on. Among other things, this software starts the operating system, and supports the transfer of information between hardware devices (such as the keyboard and the monitor).

      How can I find the manufacturer of my computer?

      Click on the Start button , type msinfo32 in the start search box and press ENTER. The manufacturer of your computer is listed as the manufacturer of the system in the right pane of the system information window.

      Click here to go online to see the contact information for most of the computer manufacturers

    3. Download and install the latest updates and drivers for your computer

    It's a good idea to periodically check the updates of driver for your computer, especially if you added new hardware recently, such as a USB hub or other USB device.

    What is a USB hub?

    A USB hub is a device with multiple (USB) universal serial bus ports. USB ports are narrow and rectangular connection points to connect USB devices to your computer. A USB hub is used an Extender of port or port replicator, providing more USB ports to run from a USB connection on your computer. USB hubs can be external devices that connect to a USB port, or they can be internal devices built into your computer.

    To check for driver updates:

      1. Go online to Windows Update

      2. Click the check for updates in the left pane, and then click view available updates.

        What happens if I see any updates available?

        • If you see you receive updates: managed by your system administrator, you can try clicking on the link to check online for updates from Microsoft Update or Search online for updates from Windows Update, but you should maybe contact your system administrator to get the desired updates.

        • If you do not see the message above and no update is available in Windows Update after clicking on the link check the updates in the left pane, then the available updates have already been installed.

      3. Select the driver for your device updates and more updates to install.

        Note
        We recommend that you install all Important updates and recommended. These updates improve the security and stability of your computer.

    2. If you recently added a new hardware device on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if there is an update to the driver.

    3. If you recently added a new program on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if an update is available.

    Steps to work around this problem

    Warning
    These measures are intended to solve a specific problem, but could do so by temporarily disabling or removing some features on your computer.

    1. Try to remove newly added USB devices

      If this issue occurs after adding a USB hub or other USB device, consider removing to see if the problem goes away. If this resolves the problem, contact the manufacturer of the device for the updates or other recommendations.

    2. Do not disconnect USB devices while the computer is to stop or go to sleep

    This problem is known to occur when USB devices are disconnected when the computer is trying to stop or switch mode to 'sleep'. This is common with cell phones, especially those with a docking station, as docking station can act as a USB hub. The frequency of this problem could be reduced by allowing your computer to completely close or completely in sleep mode before detached from its docking station or unplug it or the docking station USB devices.

    If you know which USB device is causing the problem

    It may be possible to prevent the Blue error screen by choosing the option remove the device safely in the Notification area, before putting your computer into sleep or Hibernate mode.

    1. In the system tray, click the icon to remove the device , select the USB device that you think that the origin of the problem and then click OK.

    2. Do not physically remove the USB device.

    3. Perform the action which resulted in the Blue error screen, so that was taken the functioning of your computer after the mode standby, hibernation, or, in the case of laptops, close the laptop computer or place it in a docking station.

      1. If the Blue error screen persists, it is likely that the problem is with another USB device. Try this procedure using other USB devices until you find that at the origin of the problem.

  • If the Blue error screen disappeared, you have probably identified the device causing the problem. Contact the manufacturer of the device for more information on how to solve this problem, or use the option to remove the device safely to work around him.

  • Note
    Depending on the manufacturer and model, some USB devices will become available automatically when you resume using your computer. Others will require that first disconnect you physically and then plug back in front, they will be recognized by the computer. Check the system tray to see if the USB device that you removed safely become available when you started to use your computer again. If she did not become available automatically, then physically unplug it and then plug it in again.

    This is the screen it gives me. Help, please! If problem fixed, will BE AWARDED!

    Hello. I tried in vain to find and download a driver for my computer bluetooth portable e-019dx Pavilion. Someone can tell me if this is possible and if so, please provide a link to do this. Thanks in advance!

    You are the very welcome.

    Your laptop is missing the bluetooth hardware if your only option would be to buy an external usb bluetooth adapter.

    It is quite popular and works with all Windows operating systems.

    http://www.Amazon.com/Kinivo-BTD-400-Bluetooth-4-0-USB/DP/B007Q45EF4

    Another thing you could do would be to replace the existing no bluetooth wireless card with one that has bluetooth.

    You couldn't do that if your mobile phone has two antennas wireless connected to the current map.  Some laptops have only a single antenna and repair shows two in any case.

    If you go this route, you may as well go for a dual band with bluetooth card.

    Intel Dual Band Wireless-N 7260AN 802.11 b/g/n 2 x 2 WiFi + BT4.0 HP Part # 717381-001 would be ideal.

    Here is the link to the service manual.  You can refer to Chapter 5 for the procedures of R & R wlan card, so check to see if your phone has two antennas, and you'll be able to replace the internal bluetooth and wireless card.

  • Pavilion dv2 laptop: how to drive to create an Image for Vista?

    Due to d/l & updated Vista installation problems, I decided to use my HP recovery disks to restore my laptop as long as you plant. It seemed like the most logical approach to carry out several tasks, such as deleting a 2nd user & general cleaning of the data files, etc. I bought this particular computer (way back when) mainly because he was physically small enough to fit in my purse backpack for use when I travel abroad (to download, review & backup images). I should have more a thorough investigation of speed, memory, etc. before you buy, but that's water under the bridge.

    Vista reloaded without problems, except that it took a few hours of babysitting, because I had never done this before and don't know when / if my contribution may be necessary.

    In any case, because of the time needed, I thought I would create system images at different stages along this restore process... as having been shipped from the factory. After installing all the updates of Windows; After the installation of "programmes" (PhotoshopCS6 & Microsoft Office); etc. Recently for the 1st time I went through the process imaging system (creation, does not) on my Windows7 desktop.

    I was surprised to learn that the imagery of the system is not integrated with Vista. Told me 3rd party software is necessary. My needs are simple: I would like to copy (mirror image) physical disk 1 (partitioned C & D) & restore & up & works quickly, if necessary.

    I also have a laptop XP even more old, used only for the scanning of slides. It's not really a priority, but it would be great if I could find some imaging software that will run on XP.

    I Googled, but I'm really not qualified to judge what I found. Excellent sound even from those that are free. Price is of course a matter of concern because it is (I hope) of little-used software.

    I use the second copy to synchronize my data on my desktop backups & will probably start using it on the laptop too.

    Does anyone have recommendations for imaging system software?

    Thank you

    Macrium has worked very well for me and others I suggested. Windows XP 7.Haven't yet tested on Windows 8. On my list of things to do this weekend.

    You can create a bootable cd to boot from and to restore the Image even on a startup hard disk no. I use a drive external hard usb for images and it is generally fast enough to restore an image.

    The other two, that I mentioned have been recommended as works fine as well - I have just haven't tried because I use Macrium since 5-6 years. I love him so much although I bought the paid version for a laptop to test, but the free version does almost as well, and I use it on other computers in the House. If it does not suit your needs, one of the other two must.
