Pavilion G6-2213 nr: cannot start using HP system recovery disks
Hi all
I have a laptop of Pavilion G6 2213 nr and I had problems and ran diagnostics from the system on it and he failed the hard drive of the short dst test, so I ordered HP recovery discs and a new hard drive on ebay. I have put in the new drive hard, pop in the first recovery disc in the drive, and when I try to boot from the cdrom drive, it says 'press any key to boot from the CD or DVD... ». After pressing a button, it goes on the page 'selected boot image could not authenticate. So I searched online and found in this case, I should turn on legacy mode and turn off secureboot. So I make this change in the bios and go out with gain and he enter a four digit code + enter to make the change in legacy mode. After you have entered the code, the computer restarts and wonder at new "press any key to boot from the CD or DVD...". ». I press a key, and then it takes me to a page in black/white with only a blinking cursor and never does anything else. With the new drive hard in, I ran the memory and the hard drive a broad diagnosis and pass the two tests.
Does anyone have any suggestions? What is the DVD player? Or sata controller (not that I really know what that means, I just read in a post somewhere in a case similar to what is probably the DVD drive or a SATA controller).
Any help is appreciated!

I'll try that. Thank you.
You are quite welcome.
You will need to have a hard drive replacement, which is at least 160 GB of capacity!
A 120 GB hard drive (or SSD) will not work with the Recovery Manager.
The usb recovery media is the image recovery factory in about an hour and it is a sustainable product. If there is a scratch on the side of the label of a recovery disk, the entire set of recovery disks becomes unusable.
A factory image recovery with recovery disks can take two hours or longer time to complete.

Help! How can I recover all my files that I lost? I was answering an e-mail message when I heard a couple of clicks then my computer off.
I thought that my computer was destroyed. Nothing I tried would bring it to the top, so I decided to use the system recovery disc that
came with my computer. I've also downloaded all the drivers for the application. My computer is back on, but I lost everything.
It's like putting into service with a new computer. I had a lot of important information in the files that I lost. I've tried everything I know to do
without success. Is it still possible to recover these lost files? Thank you very much for your help!
Hello
I'm sorry, but when you did the recovery of the system you have disabled your hard drive of everything, including your files.
You now have a new computer.
You can try this program (it's free) to see if he 'can' find and recover your files. no guarantee:

Cannot reformat using the Toshiba Recovery disk
Hello
I'm not sure whether or not my question was published by third parties. Please let me know if someone had posted this.
Here's my problem.I put the recovery CD in the CD-ROM drive. Then I restart my laptop and press F12 and select boot from the CD-ROM. Then I come to a black screen where it says 'Windows 98...'
After some time, the failure message appear.
My laptop was with Windows XP and I don't know why the word 'Windows 98' appears. After failing, I try to go to the window and double-click the CD-ROM Setup and he says not can read any of the files on CD. The CD is used to reformat the laptop before.
Is it the corrupt CD?
Hey mate,
First of all, it would be interesting to know what laptop you have. Maybe it has been bundled with Windows 98 recovery disk I put t know.
Theoretically, it could be a problem with the CD. Try another disc and see what happens.

Using HP system recovery disks
I have replaced a failed hard drive on a HP Pavilion h8 - 1380t. I also ordered a set of HP recovery disks, which is a disk 4 labeled value, "System Recovery" as well as a 5th disk of "additional recovery." Only 1 of the 4 disc set is bootable. When I boot from this drive, an application called "Recovery Manager" starts with the three main categories and options. All options are grayed out and the only thing I can do is click on the 'x' and restart. No idea what I'm supposed to do here?

Thanks for getting back to me!
I suggest to go forward and to call to get a second set sent to you. During this time, make sure that nothing obstructs your cd tray to eject. I saw recoveries cling to 99%, because he could not eject the disc when it was over (I know that's not your specific problem).
A second set of disks should solve the problem. The representative reported what happened with the first series.
I hope this helps. I'm sorry that I could not give a more favourable response. It seems that it is just a bad game. Let me know what is the result, if you have a chance

Satellite P105-S6197: how to use the system recovery disk
Greetings,
I have a P105-S6197 and I followed the instructions on the recovery disk,
1. Insert the disk or disk #1 in the drive.
2. turn on your computer while holding down the button 'C' (release key 'C' when the display shows "Toshiba")but these instructions do not work the computer starts just to the top normally and do never runs the disk.
Is there another way to get the disc to run so that I can completely reformat my computer to the way it was when it was first purchased.
Thanks, Edana
I can provide the same information as codes for:
There are different options to allow booting from the CD/DVD drive.
One is the C key (you have to press several times) immediately after that the laptop has been powered.
The second possibility could be the F12 key.
It would start on the screen menu and then you may choose the CD/DVD drive as a boot device.Last but not least, you can change the boot order in the BIOS.
The reader of CD/DVD (ODD) in the first place and the gaming laptop should boot from the inserted CD, bootable automatically.Concerning

My computer crashed while updating. It's a double 4 year old HP desktop processor. I could get into the repair screen, but nothing would be useful. I backed up data (115 GB) using the tools available on a drive hard usb. They are under the folder MINWIN and meet 31 different files. All I get is the demand to put in the disc. I copied the last file on DVD, but it will not read it. All other recovery programs say there is no backup file.

Cannot start the installation of recovery on my Satellite A200 - 28 p
I'm trying to restore my PC laptop Toshiba Satellite A200 - 28 p (Windows Vista Home Edition) by using the recovery disk of the product supplied with the laptop, no matter what I try to do, I can not run, the only thing that it will allow me to do is to restore the laptop to an earlier date. I have full admin rights on the laptop, there is no virus or other malware on it, all this seems to have happened because he updated with windows vista, about two days ago have uninstalled the updates, but that has no effect.
I can't find anywhere on the laptop recovery console, but I know it was there before. I tried a lot of solutions available on the web, but none of them work. I used the recovery disc about 2 1/2 years when the laptop crashed and it worked fine then.
Any help apprecited
I don't remember how it was with A200.
You only have a recovery DVD or you could also launch the installation of recovery of HARD drive using F8 at startup (advanced startup options > fix my computer)?In any case, the description of your problem confuses me.
If you are using the recovery as boot drive DVD there is no console repair or some options.
Installation of recovery on startup, you can only see menu where you have to click on next.
Please check my lats post on http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=61124You see the even when the laptop starts to read the recovery disk?

Satellite P500 - loop of reboot after using the Toshiba Recovery disk
Hello
I have a problem recovery SATELLITE P500. I did the recovery disks. It starts ok on the recovery disk and format the hard drive and copy the disks to the hard drive. Then, he begins installing windows and restarts.
He then goes to a loop
(1) marketing and says "Setup is preparing your computer for first use.
(2) Toshiba banner saying please wait... Second installation may take several minutes. Pleae do not interrupt or shut down the computer!
(3) Windows logo
(4) close...
(5) restarts and goes to 1)It would be great if someone could help me with this.
Thank you very much
SoftariHello
I noticed the same thing on my Satellite P500, but I must say it s not a problem, it of quite normal. The computer will restart several times (10 times or more) to complete the installation.
You know that a lot of drivers/tools will be installed and some restart is required to configure everything properly.
So don t interrupt the installation of recovery, just wait a little longer and a coffee. Everything is done automatically and your laptop is reinstalled with the factory settings. :)

Re: Satellite A300-1MO - can I use any Toshiba Recovery disk?
I have an A300-1 MB.
Can I use any Toshiba Recovery disk?
Or is it as a specific for my A300-1 MB?I'm like a total noob...
Someone pls help...!No, you cannot use any recovery disk, you must use the recovery disc designed for this model of laptop.
The point is that recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package that contains the OS and Toshiba drivers
If you want to use another recovery disc then the image would be installed with no compatible drivers and this could lead to other problemsEvery new notebook from Toshiba offers a Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool. This tool can create a recovery disk

Using the "System recovery" Recovery Manager, it will erase the partitions?
Hello, I was counting on the creation of a second partition for windows 7.
What I want is two partitions one with windows 7 and one with vista. This is the easiest part.
Now, I was planning on moving over my larger files, which is a lot of music and a lot of digital photos on the windows partition 7. Then, I wanted to clean install vista using the system recovery feature built into the computer. Now, I see it says restore my computer to default settings, but it's a little vague.
So my question is, even with 2 separate partitions would be a system recovery remove them both and combine them into 1, just like when I got to my computer? Or would it restore my vista partition just like it was when I got it? I've really messed with the recovery of the system too, so I don't know if there is an option to select a partition, or something, I don't want to go overboard and remove my pictures and music.
And there are a lot of things, like 50 + GB combined, it would take a lot of time to save it online, but if that's what needs to be done, so be it.
Thank you!
Also the laptop I use is a Hp pavilion Dv2500 with just vista on it right now.
Hello
The answer is no. The Recovery Manager has his job to do once tell you her to begin.
The HP Recovery Manager will do its thing and restore your laptop provided that delivery. It is a destructive process in terms of all the space on your hard drive, except for the recovery partition. You will find yourself with a Vista partition (C and a recovery partition (D when it is done.))
This means that when the recovery is complete and you have all the drivers loaded, you can use the Vista Disk Manager to create your partition in Win 7.
I hope that this makes it more clear.
Kind regards

Can satellite L300-1AQ - I use the L300D recovery disk?
My son has a Satellite L300-1AQ equipped of vista. All of a sudden will load is more the laptop and automatic repair options fails too. There is a blue screen that appears, but only for a second when I try the repair option - then the laptop stops. We have no recovery disks.
Also, I have a laptop Satellite L300D-13 s that works well and suppose I could get a drive recovery- but prob diff drivers etc.
Can someone advise me how best to my sons laptop (Im not concerned about retrieving data as all saved already), but do not want to return to the factory settings including Vista. Do not know if using a laptop recovery disk is an option - instinctively is not as ever as simple as that.
All advice welcome please.
Hi mate,
I can t imagine that the Satellite L300D recovery disc will work on Satellite L300. The hardware platform is different, because a single machine is equipped with Intel CPU and the other with AMD processor, so there's a big difference.
In addition, in the worst case, it could be a hardware problem and in this case the recovery disk does not work
What can you do now? I think you have to options: either you install Vista from a disk of Microsoft or order you a Toshiba Recovery disk: https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
After installing the Microsoft disc, you can download all the drivers on the Toshiba site. Then you will also get back to factory settings, but it takes more time in the recovery disk because it contains an image which already all the drivers and tools are included/installed.
I hope I could help a bit. :)

I bought a new hard drive. I don't have a system recovery disk. Can I load Windows Vista from another source and activate using my original product key?
Hello
There is no download available from Microsoft Vista.
Contact the manufacturer of your laptop and ask them to send a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
"How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.
Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
See you soon.
p.s. If the old hard drive is still installed and running before you change on hard drives and you never received the to purchase recovery discs, you can make the recovery discs from the recovery Partition which should be on the old hard drive. You will need to request that the manufacturer how to do as each computer manufacturer has their own way of making records of this partition recovery.
It depends on the old hard drive still works.
