Pavilion 15-p155nr: failed to retrieve Windows 8.1 on Pavilion 15-p155nr. Help, please.

Hello. I have a problem with my laptop HP Pavilion 15-p155nr. I just purchased and decided to change for one SSD HARD drive. I had done it before on another HP laptop. Now, I saved the image of Windows 8.1 on three DVD - DL discs, with the help of creation of HP Recovery Manager, which is preinstalled in the system. The discs have been recorded correctly. I disassembled my laptop computer and changed in SSD HARD drive. Then I started from the first recovery disk and start the download. It downloaded all the necessary information of all three DVDs and began to intall. This lasted about 2.5 hours and finally, during the installation should have completed, Recovery manager gave me some errors. I can't find any information on this error in the net, so I decided to write to HP support so that there is no other way to solve this problem. Errors, you can see on the photo. I want also to emphasize, that a new SSD has been initialized and MBR has been set.

UPDATE! The system was installed, but when I opened this computer or workstation (what you want) I noticed that there is no recovery partition... I guessed that it will happen. Help! What is the problem that Recovery manager fails to install this partition?

UPDATE 2!  I tried to get back on 500 GB HARD drive and it does! Now I have the only question - 256 GB SSD will be adapted covers? I ask exactly about 256 GB SSD because I can change 120 to 256, pay more, but the 512 GB SSD is too expensive for me.

If the SSD is much smaller capacity than the original hard drive there may not be enough space for the recovery partition plus size of the necessary recovery for Windows partition. I know it seems to require more that it is really necessary, but it is an image used to restore. Most of the people have not even get so successful - and totally refusing to install on the smaller hard drive recovery.

    Hi SueWolde,

    1. what happens when you try to connect to the network?

    2. you receive an error message/code?

    3. you are on a computer in the domain?

    You may encounter network or problems of Internet in Windows for several reasons. Some common problems that can cause these problems are:

    • A wireless network adapter switch that is not enabled
    • WEP, WPA, or WPA2 key or password security issues
    • Cables that are not connected correctly
    • Corrupt or incompatible drivers
    • Missing updates
    • Network connection settings
    • Hardware or software problems

    Try these steps and see if it helps.

    Step 1

    One of the components of the Internet connection on your computer is a package of instructions called TCP/IP. TCP/IP can sometimes become damaged or altered. If you can't connect to the Internet and you have tried all other methods to solve the problem, TCP/IP can be causing it.

    See the help article to reset the Internet (TCP/IP) Protocol.

    You are running Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, Norton or McAfee? If you run one of those, she didn't have Defender. It's good, not bad. Not only is there potential conflict, but there is no reason to have both; basically to have something very similar to the built-in Defender, and both running at a time will be your performance level and create the risk of problems that are contrary to the other.

  • Failed to retrieve Windows 8 HP (recovery discs) used

    Hello. I don't know where to start.

    System Info-

    HP Pavilion Notebook g6t-2200

    Windows 8 (64-bit)

    It comes to my sisters computer. His system was slow, so I had to reinstall the OS using the recovery media that I ordered for the system. Ive reinstalled the operating systems for computers muliple since Windows 2000.

    I had 3 discs entitled - System Recovery DVD Windows 8 Recovery Media for Windows 8 products.

    and 1 Application and Driver Recovery DVD.

    I started the PC, Went in the UEFI (BIOS) and changed the Boot Options in the CD - DVD drive, insert the disc 1 and rebooted

    The Recovery Manager Loaded and start the Image Factory reset.

    I have inserted all 3 CD when you are prompted during the "reformat the Windows Partition of the hard disk", "copy the files required to restore the hard drive" and "restore the files to the hard drive.

    I said that if I got any additional recovery CD insert them now. I had this Application and Driver Recovery DVD, but it has not inserted and has chosen to ignore, because of the fact that the CD has not come in the same sheath as others.

    The PC rebooted and went through a setup process and several reboots. After all this, the PC has restarted and told me that the recovery has NOT. It gave me the opportunity to start again, or create a dump file.

    I am at a loss, should I have used the disc when prompted? Any help would be nice = D

  • Failed to retrieve Windows Photo upward

    I backed up my HDD to an external hard drive Western Digital when my computer informed me that my hard drive was about to fail.   Then I restored my files to the new HD.  The problem is that my pictures have not been restored - the files are there, but they are empty.    I used Adobe Photoshop 2 to process the photos originally, but I don't have a copy saved this old application to replace on my new HD.    In my opinion, this is why I can't get the photos.  Can someone tell me how to restore the photos without the old software or tell me where I could find the old software for Photoshop 2?  I installed Photoshop 3, but I had never used it before, so it did not help.

    I used Windows to the top. I went through all suggestions from windows support to retrieve files from the back to the top, but all I get is the empty file folder.

    Hi AndreeMiller,

    Are you facing the issue only with folders with pictures?

    You can try the following steps and check if it helps:

    a. right click on the folder and select Properties.

    b. check the size of the folder.

    If this isn't displays 0 bytes, then the folder is hidden.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-6070ee: lost all preinstalled on my laptop Pavilion DV6-6070ee help please

    Hello

    I own a HP Pavilion dv6 - 6070ee notebook pc, serial number: product number [personal information deleted],: LL059EA #ABV.

    Long story short, I had problems with the hard drive came with my laptop, so I had to switch to an SSD, but, unfortunately, I could not clone the hard drive to my new SSD because the hard drive was really damaged, so I had to install a new genuine copy of windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, which was originally on the laptop when I bought it.

    The problem is, I've lost all the software initially provided with the original hard drive and now I don't even have a recovery partition. In addition, the sound does not work, the camera does not work the microphone and the reader of fingerprints and many other things. Please help im really really desperate, if only I can download a recovery partition so my phone would go back to normal thank you very much.

    PS: beats audio also comes with the laptop.

    Thank you

    Sorry, but it becomes increasingly difficult to find the recovery media for older PCs, because the places are running out of stock.

  • Acer Travelmate 7750 G freezes completely using Windows or Linux (dual boot). Need help please.

    The problem is that the machine freezes completely without apparent reason, on all operating systems, I tried.  "Freezes", I mean there is no reaction to the mouse movements, keyboard presses and start button / stop pressed off the coast.  The gel seems to be at a random time and may occur even when the system is idle.

    The Acer Travelmate 7750 G laptop came pre-installed with Windows 7 and it kept freezing.  The machine has been updated level of Windows 8, 8.1, 10, then dual boot with Linux Mint 17.3.  The machine froze on all operating systems.  I have tested software hard drive, memory, CPU, GPU and they all managed very well.  Is it someone who has knowledge about how to resolve or others troubleshoot this please?

    RESOLVED - I installed a HDD replacement in December 2015 and the laptop Travelmate 7750 G works perfectly since.  Cost me almost nothing compared to the price of the laptop.  No freezing, crashing or anything else!

    Thank you very much for your help.
