Pavilion d4999t-2 double Raid disk recovery files

I have (or had) Pavilion d4999t-2 - KT82AV #ABA product number. The motherboard is toast.  Can I retrieve my files from the double Raid drives?  It had been a while since I've done a backup file. (Yes, I was a lazy boy).  I know there are companies that can do but $ 800.00 min is a lot to pay.

Hello

How did you come to the conclusion that your motherboard is toast?

If you disconnect the SATA drive connectors hard and any other external device except a keyboard and video output and then it turns on, what is she doing?

You must have a motherboard that was identical in all respects to recover a RAID set or pass (as you now now) crazy amounts of $$. Even with an identical motherboard (storage controller identical Intel and chipset) the RAID set may not be recoverable. You can not move readers to another motherboard and wait for everything to be good again. RAID is a special case and it simply does not work out like that.  If the RAID set has been the RAID 0 then the data are spread over two discs. This means no redundancy. When a drive goes down your data has disappeared. If the drive was RAID 1, then replace the failed disk can be done. The RAID set can be re-created by the Intel Matrix storage software solution.

Here is a Wikipedia article that has a reasonable explanation of the many types of RAID and their advantages and disadvantages.  The acronym RAID means redundant inexpensive disk array. Redundancy in Information technology is the "repetition of critical elements" or functions of a system with the intent to increase the reliability of the system, usually in the case of a backup or fail-safe.

    3. Once it is installed, it restarted the PC automatically and then start configuring Windows 7 up or at least begun to load (Win 7 was also my original OS).

    Hello

    I suggest to try the following workaround.

    If you have (or can borrow) an installation disc Windows 7 at retail which is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - IE if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit is the exact retail version, you would need.

    If you do not access to the retail drives, you can create an installation disk yourself - just download good picture disc from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO on a CD blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key Windows located on the underside of your laptop when requested and when the installation is completeuse the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want just a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally delivered with OEM installations.

    Bought, thati USB file system is FAT32 by default.

    I already read that on the page above: 'a message of Recovery Manager opens indicating that the flash drive will be formatted. Click OK to format the USB key and continue. »

    but I would like to have, and a more definite answer from someone who knows better.

    So, does change the NTFS file system.

    or should I now start the manufacturing process of the recovery USB flash drive as it is (FAT32)

    Thank you for your help

     

     

    I have already created the recovery USB flash drive, and formatted Recovery Manager the disk before the process,

    and at the end, when the recovery files was written and verifyed.

    I look at the file system of the USB flash drive, and it's NTFS...

    If you reformatted the two partitions on the hard drive, your options are somewhat limited with respect to the repair installation of Windows to incur.

    You can check whether or not the recovery partition has been deleted by pressing F11 at startup when the BIOS screen appears. If the HP Recovery Manager starts, you are in luck and can proceed to an OEM HP system recovery.

    Seems that drive HARD recovery does not work.
    Perhaps something has changed on the recovery of HARD drive partition or recovery files has been deleted

    Usually it s always advisable to create a recovery disk in a first time. This should be done at the beginning and this recovery disk is always useful if something would go wrong with drive recovery HARD or with HARD drive

    Now, you can't get the phone because you don t have this drive and the HARD drive does not work

    What to do?
    Well, I think that you would need new control disc.

  • Hard disk recovery and replacement system

    I have a laptop of 1155 ca HDX 16 running Windows 7 ultimate (upgrade of Vista) pre-installed. I recently discovered a bad sector or several bad sectors on my hard drive using many tools of diagnistics. SMART info indicates 3 pending sectors. Also, the hard drive failed the test under BIOS self-diagnose. That my computer can cope with imminent hard drive failure, I would like to replace the hard drive. Is there any HHDs with greater storage space and higer RPM compatible with this laptop? In addition, I can't create a second set of recovery disks containg my current system and settings, how would I be able to recover my data/system and how can I back up all my files current?

    Thank you.

    Hello:

    You can use the backup and recovery of Windows 7 system to make a ghost image of your current content of the hard drive on a hard drive portable.  You will also need to make a bootable CD that will give you the opportunity to do so, to access the recovery files, and then reinstall your current configuration.

    However, if I were you, I would back up all files, music and photos separately I didn't want to lose, just in case the reinstallation fails.

    Although HP doesn't show any upgrades to your hard drive, I guess you'd be sure to install a 640 GB SATA 7200 RPM up to. It's a PC pretty modern.

    You can also be on the right side and order a set of recovery disc for your laptop. They will be for Vista, but you can then go ahead and reinstall W7.  A set of recovery disks normally costs about $16.00.

    Here is the link to the support page for your laptop.  Under the "Alerts for this product" section, you can click on the blue link indicating "how to order recovery disks.

  • How can I restore my factory settings.i deleted my recovery files

    "How can I restore my laptop compaq presario cq57 windows computer factory settings 7", I deleted my recovery files.

    Hello

    If you have deleted the recovery Partition, you will not be able to create your own set of recovery disks, then you will need to order a replacement, set as described in my previous post.

    If you use these replacement disks to reinstall the operating system, they will also recreate the hard disk recovery Partition - this will allow to use the 'method f11' reinstall Windows if you wish.

    Hello

    By "file recovery", you mean the recovery Partition?

    Who was photographed by the manufacturer of the computer's hard disk and there is nothing to do with Windows or Microsoft.

    It is general information on the recovery Partition:

    Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

    1. If you want to reinstall Windows from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

    F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

    You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

    2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

    Also ask them how to make records.

    Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

    There are backups on an external hard drive.

    To fix any problems that have occurred with the D: Partition Recovery, you need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove everything that was added on.
