Pavilion 15-p051us: Recovery Options

I just bought this laptop last week. Rather than create a new account of MS, I used what I had put in place for a Toshiba. Of course, it went thru and went that the new system has been finally implemented I noticed that all my settings Explorer 11 (Favorites, ect) have been transferred to the course. Not much, thought it was great. So now, I decided to do a system restore disc, but when I go through the process I get the following messages:

The selected boot device has failed. Press Enter to continue (and I do) and the following message appears and the line below is repeated 3 times on the screen so will enter only once. And I choose the one I want

OS Boot Manager (UEFI) - Windows Boot Manager (Toshiba MQ01ABD075) < < repeated 3 times

Boot to the EFI file

The lower part tells me to choose an option or press F10 for BIOS Setup Options:

Now, tell me how Toshiba got in my recovery program? Microsoft include this info in my system or what happened. I have discussed this with the help of HP and they had no idea, so they sent me a recovery disk set, but the same messages, cannot recovery from a disk. The computer works OK. I can do a factory reset, but not a recovery disk or from a disk.  The computer works OK, but sooner or later, maybe I need to recover. Any help would be useful. I have to update the BIOS?

Thank you

Jerry

Once the recovery is complete, you can solve the secure boot.  The setting really has nothing to do with the search to start from the cd or hard drive. It's settings that prevents booting from anything "except" the laptop hard drive. A few rare occasions, I've seen a machine refuses to start once you raise - if necessary just disable & leave.

Yes - HP uses drives from other manufacturers and Toshiba in their laptops. I have two laptop computers HP with the Toshiba hard drive. Search under disk drives in Device Manager - it should say Toshiba MQ01ABD075.

  • Pavilion p6506f: System Recovery option grayed out when you use the recovery to factory default reset disk

    Dear experts,

    Please help me on what I am making a solution for about 4 hours now...

    Somehow my recovery partition is damaged, so I use the recovery disk that I created when I bought the computer.

    I used the disc to start the computer and after loading files and everything on the menu of Recovery Manager "System Recovery" is grayed out.  Note that I have not changed any hardware on the computer.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You did do the right thing. But you created a Win 7 recovery disk, not the game of HP recovery disks.

    You can switch to Win own 10.

    You will need the product key Microsoft of the COA sticker attached to the frame of your PC of 25 characters.

    Images of example COSTS:

    Do a clean install of win 10 If you do not know the product key of Windows 7 on the certificate of authenticity.

    Win 7 PC sometimes have problems updating to Win 10.

    I really think you should get support from HP Win 7 recovery. If the Win 10 upgrade fails you can always return Win 7 If you have a Win 7 HP recovery media.

    Your choice.

  • HP Pavilion - do I need external recovery option?

    Hello

    I just bought a HP Pavilion 15.  Get advice contractdictory.  Some say that must have an external recovery option; others say why, there is no need and there is a lot of hassle to create a game.  Need advice:

    (1) is it really necessary to have an external option when I have the recovery partition (D) on the hard drive?

    (2) if I need an external option (however difficult it's maybe create), think to buy Panasonic DVD - RAM 9.4 GB rewritable disc.  Is this a suitable medium?  And how function drives how much I need to buy?

    (3) absolute worst case secenario - if I need to recover & had no external recovery media, what are my other options?

    Unfortunately enough knowlegde/experince of concern but not know enough to know what to do.  Can anyone help?

    To the best of my knowledge, HP allows driver downloads regardless of the status of the warranty...  The only time you'll ever a question is if you try to put an OS on a machine that is not designed...  IE Win7 on a machine of Win8, etc etc...

    Even then, there are always alternatives...

    My philosophy has always been to NEVER put anything on a computer on which you cannot live without...

    If the drivers are your concerns, you got nothing to worry about.  With VERY few exceptions, drivers are ALWAYS available...

    The hassle to go out into the nature of the Internet to find is really the only negative...

  • HP Pavilion DV6: LOST RECOVERY

  • Satellite L755 - 16L - new installation Win7 without recovery option

    Hello...

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L755 - 16L.
    I want to re - install windows 7, but recovery option will erase everything... I don t want to use it, I saw a key at the bottom of the laptop for win 7, saying it is oa mea?

    So is there a way that I could do without clear all.

    Hello

    Please visit http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    You will find all the HARD drive recovery facility information and accurate information which will be deleted exactly (see Note).

    Product key down means that you bought laptop with preinstalled OS and valid license. This key belongs to the version of the OS preinstalled. Don t think you can use it for the activation of the operating system if you try to install the version of the OS using the Microsoft installation disc.

    > So is there a way that I could do without clear all.
    I put t know what do you mean under everything.
    If you want to have own pre-installed OS still best option for you is to back up all important data on external device and after installing the OS, you can copy it to computer s portable HARD drive.

  • Vista recovery disks do not display TOSHIBA HDD Recovery option

    Back to school for 4 children with laptops is a pain, he seems to be constantly before wipe them and their establishment again.

    Any ideas why the Vista recovery disks do not display TOSHIBA HARD drive recovery option?

    I made a USB key and copied all the files from a backup of the Recvery drive to it. The USB displays the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery option but calls for the disks and will not run the recovery of the USB itself. It's annoying, but at least I can still use it to recover the machine.

    I would like to be

    the problem with discs

    or

    get the USB key to retrieve by using its own files instead of asking for the disks. Vista was not created with the option to recover from USB, so maybe I can't.

    HARD drive recovery option appears not in the advanced boot menu if something has been changed or modified on the HARD disk and the flag was removed.
    For example, this may be the case if the partition has been changed, modified or if HARD drive recovery files or folder has been changed, moved, or deleted.

    In case you want to recover the computer laptop back to factory settings, you must use the recovery disk

  • Satellite A500 - HARD drive recovery option is no longer available at the F8 Menu

    Hello, this my phone trees.
    I reset my Satellite A500 and due to a power failure reset did not finish. When I have inexplicable with F8 I can see HARD drive recovery option, and then must log on my account that I did not at all because of the power failure.
    Then I installed a copy of Vista retail, hoping to create an account and be able to retrieve from the HARD drive.
    PROBLEM! : Now I don't see the "Recovery disk" option at all.
    QUESTION: There must be a way to integrate this option in the windows Startmenu (F8). Can someone help me with this issue? I burn the DVD recovery and the recovery partition is still there.
    Thanks in advance.

    More big mistake made you ve, it's that you don't l l create recovery DVD such as recommended by Toshiba.

    Why you didn t ask how it works before you do anything?
    You've misunderstood with username and account.

    Now, when you use your own installation, you need to remove the option for installation of HARD drive recovery and the recovery image can be installed with recovery only DVDs.
    Now, you have two options:
    -to order the new recovery DVDs or
    d ' use the clean install of the OS.

    What do you think of this?
    To be honest, I think you need to use Windows 7 on this laptop.

    I recommend you to install Win7. Download page for all the necessary drivers, you can find and download from Toshiba

    If you have more questions or need help please let me know.

  • Satellite A135: Difference between recovery options

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A135, OS: Vista Home.

    I'm trying to reformat my laptop using the supplied with my laptop system recovery disk.
    I gives me two options when I run the disc:

    (1) restoration of out-of-box factory State, and
    (2) wipe the hard drive.

    What are the differences between these two options?
    My goal is to make a total of cleaning on my HARD drive to get rid of malware.

    It's a mobile US and so I not quite sure what the exact difference could be m but as I m not wrong the first recovery option set laptop back to the factory settings.
    Another, the second option would be to format the HARD drive only

    If you have tried both options thanks to post the results

  • Re: Equium L40 - 14 l - System recovery option missing

    Hi all

    I have an Equium l40 14l that I finally decided needs to be restored "out of the box" status.

    I can boot to the system recovery options page, but the widely mentioned drive HARD recovery option has been replaced by the option system restore of full Windows OS.
    When I choose it is telling me that is preinstalled files are damaged you can use the recovery dvd - rom product. All I can do is click OK and return to the previous screen.

    I ran a few software partitioning and the hidden partition appears. I don't have a disc of recovery with the machine as she had the hidden restore partition.

    I don't have a backup when I first booted the machine. I think now that it was a good idea, but as I thought I had the hidden partition to rely on I don't bother.

    Ideas if there is a way I can get the system recovery to display HARD drive recovery option?

    Thank you Tom

    Cool. Glad to hear this. Now you can remove all the stuff, you don't need and optimize the preinstalled recovery image.

    Good luck.

  • Satellite L655 - recover Toshiba Recovery option

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L655 with Windows Home Premium 64-bit. I recently had problems with my operating system. Unfortunately, I didn't know about HARD drive recovery option, so I just reinstalled an OS with Windows 7 installation CD (I have a).

    Now I know about HARD drive recovery and I would get my system to it's State of origin "Toshiba", but there is nothing "Toshiba HDD recovery" more in the recovery menu (F8 at startup)

    I still have the folder HDDRecovery on my drive D:\ with od 7.5 GB data. But how can I get it back? What should I install to have the "Toshiba Recovery" point back again in the recovery environment?

    Thank you
    Ivan

    Hey Buddy,

    The Toshiba HDD Recovery feature is available on the preinstalled operating system. If you have installed another version he s not available anymore.

    So in your case, you have the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. Did you create the Toshiba Recovery disk before installing Windows 7?
    Usually this can be done with the box settings because the Toshiba recovery media creator is preinstalled. This means that you need some blank discs to create the recovery disk.

    If you don t have the recovery disc, you can order a new by clicking here:

  • Loop system recovery options

    This morning Satellite 100 my wife running Windows Vista itself got in a loop of the system, with absolutely no discernible way out recovery. I have so for you guys to see if anyone has had the same problem.

    First of all, the system stops (battery problem). It restarted, he and the Vista loading got a message box with the "System Recovery Options" section, just an OK button and the message "Cannot load this program click OK to restart" or something to that effect. Something off the machine.
    I tried F8 at startup upwards and all options in the recovery (including repair system tools) menu restart Vista and get the same message.
    I've searched the Toshiba support site and found nothing.

    I have a disc of recovery but that would reformat the hard drive and it has a lot of things not saved.
    I suspect it's to go into Recovery Mode and find a disk on the "hidden" partition error So, I just want to stop making so that I can start the machine and backup files. Any ideas?

    Hey Buddy,

    You can start Windows in safe mode?

    I think in the worst case it s necessary to reinstall Windows if it doesn t start more. I mean there is nothing you can do

    I m wondering that you didn't make a backup of the important files, you can save if you put the HARD drive into an external HARD drive enclosure. Then you can connect to another computer and make a backup before reinstalling Windows.

  • Cannot retrieve Satellite L300 using HARD drive recovery option

    If you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive, then you will need to retrieve the laptop using the recovery disk.
    It seems that you didn't create the disc in the just past? Well, it was not a good idea

    However, the Satellite C650 is European notebook series. Right?
    In this case, you will need the drive recovery for the series of Europeans, and this can be ordered here:

  • In the System Recovery Options administrator password?

    Hello dear users of Toshiba.

    I'm willing to use the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" in the "System Recovery Options" (after pressing F8 when the computer starts) but when I select Administrator as a user, he invites me for a password.

    I double checked my Vista user accounts and the administrator (me) is certainly not no matter what password that are bound to him.
    My problem is that I can't use recovery tool if I don't log in as an administrator...

    Can someone please help? Y at - it factory default password?

    Thanks to you all!

    Hello

    To be honest, your announcement confused me a bit especially the part where you wrote: but when I select Administrator as a user. I don't understand what you mean with it.
    But first some basic information:

    Can you imagine you use Toshiba notebook with the settings and someone will make a joke and use the F8 option and reinstall Vista. All of your settings, data and pre-installed software will be gone. Or can someone just use cell phones stolen to get around Vista secure password for laptop and do clean install of Vista using F8 option.

    To avoid this Toshiba has this security feature and each try to reload Vista password OS will be refused. So if you use the password to log in to Vista the same password will be required before the installation of recovery begins. By default, there is no password and the name of the administrator account will be shown when you start the recovery procedure. When you enter the correct password, the installation will continue.

    So much about the theory. I don't know how you do and which account you use, but the fact is, without administration account name and correct password, you won't be able to install Vista using this HARD drive recovery option.
