Pavilion g6-2306el: Windows 10 recovery media

• Windows 7 recovery media is unable to complete the installation

  I have had a total hard drive on my HP Pavilion DV6-3108EA failure and got the relevant HP recovery media and install a spare drive compatible plug - in this case, it's a Samsung SSD 850 EVO, 500 GB solid state of direct replacement for the deceased Samsung 500 GB disk drive. Drive diagnostic confirms that the replacement drive is fully functional without error.

  The recovery kit comes with 3 DVDs. tightening of the bolts 1 and 2 are the Windows 7 recovery media and #3 is the recovery of applications and drivers. 1 recovery attempt has done OK, loaded all three DVD but eventually stuck at a screen "loading devices (40%). ", which would not go further even after a night's sleep. Therefore, power off, and...

  Attempt 2 is better. I jumped 3 DVD and the construction seems to be almost complete but finally stopped with hearwarming message that "Windows cannot complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer restart the installation"frustrating, I think you'll agree.

  Out of curiosity I tried ctrl-alt-del what task manager open nicely and from there I was able to do many things including use setup to reconnect to my wireless router, enter the number of license Win 7 OK and activate windows, get the right keyboard configuration and launch a copy of IE8 with which I am still typing this message.

  It seems so I have a PC almost fully functional except that Windows could not complete the installation and if I click the OK button in the offending dialog box, it restarts and returns to the same dialog box. Very frustrating. Oh and there is no button start / menu start so clearly there are always things to be completed.

  The recovery media is "System Recovery Kit for portable Pavilion or Presario" (COL35379_631054_031) for which I paid £35,12 and expect to deliver the goods. But it doesn't work. Also remarkable is that the recovery media did not build a D: partition of recovery disk, contrary to what he says. Can anyone help?

  It's frustrating. Fortunately, I can also access this forum and this email addressfrom my Android Tablet and check there return from time to time. Really appreciate your ideas and help here.

  Either by the way, on a different thread, I read the assertion that HP requires to change a chip on the motherboard when you change a drive. This disc is loaded with tools and Windows software and saving the configuration changes as my wireless network details I don't buy that one. Thanks for reading this far.

  Hoping for wise leaders to help me move forward.

  With regard to Al

  So close and yet so far.

  But I would like to clear one thing up to HP support were excellent - good focus on my ideas of the problem and a commitment to see it through.  No worries about to buy me the hot spare elsewhere.  Problem still not solved, but I'm more forward with other ideas to pursue.  I was told to reset the BIOS date to 2012 (don't know what difference that would make but there) and the construction has progressed much further this time.

  More anon, but had to post a message praising the support that I received today.

  Result!

  Fixing the date of the BIOS to 2012 has allowed the recovery to go much further, but still have up to a point where he had failed.  So, why?

  Silly me!  Should have read the instructions on the screen and their follow-up religiously.  Eventually, the restore process (which takes a lot of time) begins to re - install applications and other things.  The message on the screen at the beginning of this process very clearly said that it will automatically reboot several times.  However, being a little too eager to get there, I finally saw a message that said that such and such an application requires a restart to complete the installation and stupidly I clicked the button restart now.  Who killed for the rest of the installation.  Finally I have sussed out - and kept following reconstruction my itchy fingers away from the mouse to the manuscript to rebuild whole had been terminated, making his own restarts suff and hey hop... a PC entirely restored with a nice new Samsung SSD drive.

  As an aside, if you plan to replace your hard drive (defective or not) with a Samsung SSD tested loading the Wizard software that comes with it to optimize the OS to SSD hardware.  It optimizes the things like the prefetcher and Super-fetch to the machine and the drive to work more effectively together - very impressive.

  Kudos to HP who were great support.  I know that some people say thay have bad experiences.  Mine here in the United Kingdom was outstanding.  The guy listened, asked good questions, gave good advice and has been a pleasure to work with - what would you like... oh yes, his advice worked!

  Thanks to HP real home to my little crisis.

  A lot of work to do now to recover data, backups (yes I) and re - install a large number of tools that I use, but all disks are there and it's just a matter of time now.

  All the best

• Cannot install Windows 7 "recovery media" on new Portege R600

  I got a new R600 that I wanted to buy with Windows 7 pre-installed, but the only option is to buy it with XP installed and "Windows 7 recovery media" (2 CDs) comes in the box, with no instructions. I started the computer and did nothing but the name and choose a pseudonym; This raised the office. Then I inserted the first CD 2: nothing. Power off and has already begun with this CD in the disc drive: nothing. Called Toshiba tech support (phone seemed to be answered in India) and has been commissioned to do several restarts now press F12 or C: nothing. After a long holding down the tech sought aid, promised a call from his supervisor: so far (it was yesterday) nothing.

  Can anyone suggest how I can fix this myself or get some action from Toshiba?

  Hello

  Please check if the BIOS Version is 3.0 or higher. If this isn't the case, please update the BIOS before installing Win7.

• HP Pavilion g7-2298nr: WINDOWS 8 recovery software. I need to buy it

  I tried to order a set of recovery dissks for my

  HP Pavilion g7-2298nr Windows 8.0 and I continue to get bounced by trying to order because HP 'sees' 10 Windows is installed.

  The reason for the need to temporarily "downgrade", it's only once "upgraded" to Windows 10, the battery does not "Save".

  I have a HP 2000 who did exactly the same thing, and the reason was that he had to be flashed to a newer version of the BIOS.

  The G - 7 has Rev. F26 BIOS and I suspect that this device needs to have flashed bios, but when I try to access the DRIVERS/SOFTWARE section on the site of HP support that my "OS" is not being handled so therefore I can not all drivers or BIOS flash.

  I planned to do a temporary downgrade to enter 8 drivers etc etc and then upgrade to Windows 10.

  Any ideas?  Thanks

• HP Pavilion 15-p020ca: create USB recovery media, delete the Lexar USB encryption?

  Hey guys, try to create USB recovery media. Want to know if the Encrypt-a-Stick Lexar software should be removed from USB before that. Or, can be used to password protect the USB recovery media? Don't think it's necessary, but if it can be used I could go that route. Thank you, pcpunk

  Hello

  Please remove, make one a blank USB key.

• Pavilion M6-1045dx: problem of recovery media

  I'm working on a cover of my laptop cousins.  The hard drive is dead and I had to order the recovery from HP media.  I just received the other day and started the recovery with a new hard drive.

  Everything was fine until I got the second dvd.  Then he stops at 71% and tells me it's a read error and asks me to click OK to try again.  I'm doing and the message comes back on the same file (wish I had the name of file, but I turn off the laptop).

  I retried a couple of times.  Same message.  I returned the drive 1 recovery.  Everything was fine until the second dvd again and stopped 71% on the same file.

  I think that the media, that I received from HP has a problem.

  How to send me the second dvd yet?

  Thank you.

  I ask that your question is raised. A person of HP will soon contact you. Please be patient as it is a holiday season in the United States.

  Ask to have the set of recovery disks replaced with HP usb recovery media. Usb support is much more reliable and more sustainable.

• HP Pavilion G6 2306el and windows 7

  Hi all

  I bought a HP Pavilion G6 2306el that comes with windows 8, and I HATE it! I want to downgrade to windows 7 pro, but I'm not sure if all the required drivers are available. I tried yesterday, but a number of things that LAN driver PCI device drivers were not installed and the pc seemed to be pretty slow makes me think something was still wrong. No idea if this computer is windows 7 compatible? HP Web site shows that it supports windows 8 and ubuntu only. If so, technically, why that?

  Thank you very much

  This means that you have started the Windows installation media by selecting a "source of inherited start" as opposed to a 'source of boot UEFI.

  WARNING *.

  HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 on a computer comes with Windows 8, and it will support the installation of Windows 7. HP doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not take in charge some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

  Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

  You should ENABLE 'Secure Boot' and 'Legacy Support' in the 'BIOS Setup boot secured' on the settings below page before you may try to install Windows 7;

  

  In addition, as the hard drive is partitioned as TPG, you must start the computer by using the "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" in the start menu "F9". If "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" or something to that effect does not exist in the start menu, please post a screenshot and/or make startup listed options.

  Please use a Windows 7 SP1 disc for the best installation experience. If you need a Windows SP1, see 'How to install Windows 7 without the disc' to download and create your own. If the DVD does not start as UEFI, you may need to use a USB Flash drive (can ask "Quick start" DISABLING in BIOS) as the installation media. Please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash drive.

• HP Pavilion g6-2298nr: when HP Recovery is not available... the system using Windows 8 as image backup?

  I would like to start with a big shout out to Paul T for his VERY useful thread here!

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-systems-and-software/Windows-8-product-key-for-pavil...

  Family of a friend asked me to work on their laptop, because I know more about computers they do... they are people very well, was happy to help out, but true to form, like many PC users, they did not bother keeping the documentation provided with the laptop (HP Pavilion g6-2298nr), or they bother to burn recovery using HP DVD built in recovery software which is comes standard on laptops... If I am interpreting what HP's Web Site had to say about the laptop model HP Pavilion g6-2298nr, correctly, she is the serial number it is no longer eligible for free technical support and I have to pay a fee just to talk to someone and to order recovery of the HP DVD (family friend bought in Dec 2014 so it seems REALLY odd that I wouldn't be able to just order) DVD recovery without having to pay tech support a tax just to ask to order the recovery DVD!  .. But anyway...) ...

  Where was the product key "integrated" in the BIOS really comes in handy!   I crossed my fingers, used the method mentioned in the thread linked above, and it worked!   ... have to admit it was a bit strange at first, do not use the product key sticker like the old days, but I can see how it works better in the long term - helps prevent piracy, you don't have to worry if someone who do not realize the importance of product keys thumbnail it takes off and he throws...

  Unfortunately, it seems that when you reinstall Windows in this way, you lose the HP Backup and Recovery program ... in this case my friend family had the misfortune to pay someone to repair this laptop which has not bothered to tell them "Hey, I replaced the hard drive that goes wrong but if you don't get a laptop cooler for this sucker to the laptop just going to overheat again." ... of course, the money they paid what we call 'tech technician' who went down draining when the laptop fried a second drive hard, or maybe the tech them faced with a bad hard drive, who knows? (technology bought a hard drive OEM off ebay)...

  ... Sorry to sound harsh about this type of technology, I must confess I only worked in the field of PC repair for a few months more than a decade before letting him make a stay-at-home-dad (wife is a pharmacist so I'm lucky enough to be able to stay at home) so my experience is VERY limited compared to other people... but the back then I have always treated my customers the way I would treat a friend , and if it's a friend of you offer advice on the prevention of such problems in the future... this laptop gets HOT like you wouldn't, I seated him on a very reliable laptop cooler (slab thickness of aluminium which does a great job as a radiator with the fans, this one)

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16834953038

  "(and I left my friend's family know in no uncertain terms that they need to order this laptop cooler if they use this laptop...).

  Replace hard drive, I installed seems to work very well, but of course it is not an "official WD hard drive"... when I tried to install the software of cyberdirector photolink for example on the link below, received an error message "this is not a WD hard drive so cannot install this software"...

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-G6-2200-notebook-PC-series/5296082/model...

  that is fine I really don't think my friend family cares about this program... but it makes me wonder, even if I did trust the download at this link below

  http://www.TechSpot.com/downloads/5190-HP-backup-and-Recovery-Manager.html

  If program HP Backup and Recovery manager would work even first because it is not an official hard drive WD (I also ordered a hard drive OEM off ebay .. but does not support the family of my friend for the drive hard because they were good for my munchkins and did not want to pay through the nose for a more expensive hard drive so of course I tried to minimize my own...)... I also think the type of program is based on a "C" and "D" drive is set up as if it were when the laptop comes with the original hard drive and saves a copy of the backup on the disk "D"... I guess I could use disk management to create a different partition, label it "D" and see if HP Backup and Recovery work, but it seems a bit... questionable... not to mention that I feel uncomfortable to download something that is not directly on the HP Web site as an "official"... download

  I know that Windows 8 has a utility of 'image system' built-in that allows you to do exactly that... an image of the system... as I said my friend family is good people, but I'm guessing that sooner or later they're going to screw up this laptop by pulling again as do many users of the computer... it would be nice if I could burn a system image of what is on the laptop now on DVD and hang on, then when they come back to me screaming in the future ' help, laptop does not work yet! I can just restore the system image on DVD instead of having to go through the hassle of reinstalling Windows, graphics/audio/drivers etc., zillion Windows updates and an etc. all over again.

  What I was asking, that is... would this even work?    I have never tried to use the image of the system in a situation like this with the product being key ' built in ' BIOS, this kind of thing is brand new to... worth me burning the DVDs and hung their just in case where?

  Sorry for the long essay and thanks in advance to anyone who actually takes the time to read all this!

  Hello:

  Yes, which makes a system image will work.  I do it all the time.

  PC GE set up the way you want and make the image of the system and the usb drive recovery you'll need access to the system image, or you can use W8 OEM disk made you (via the menu to repair your computer at the bottom left of the screen install Windows when you start from the DVD) to boot from, and access to the system image.

  If you have the DVD you have to more than one.  Probably not less than 4.

  But as much as to try to submeter a recovery partition, which is not going to work.

  I am very surprised that you cannot order a set of recovery discs HP online at the link below, last line labeled order recovery media.  Some people have reported trying to enter information such as the serial number and the link is dead.  But nothing venture nothing have nothing.

• HP Pavilion g6 Notebook Windows 8 flash drive system backup and recovery

  I have a HP Pavilion Notebook PC g6 with an operating system of Windows 8. I want to create a feedback system for recovery with a flash drive. The HP support assistant says that a minimum 22GB flash disk is required. I bought a 32 GB Cruzer flash drive and tried to create my recovery disk. Although my computer recognizes the device, the HP Wizard not to light up when I pushed the flash drive option and the position of the screen continued to read insert the media device. It was'nt by registering or by recognizing that I had inserted device. In one of the pages HP I was reading, he said not to use a widows compatible flash 8 player! I don't understand. What should I do? What kind of flash drive I should get that would do the job and what size of capacity? Please, please help me someone!

  Hello

  The problem is caused by the application Recovery Media Creator not recognizing flash drives that show, like 'Fixed readers'-, it will only recognize the flash drives that appear as a "removable disk.  In the example below, Dave (G) shows as a reader fixed and won't work, while removable disk (H) will work.

  

  Unfortunatelt there is no totally reliable method to predict what flash drives are suitable, but thanks to @erico the following flash drives known to work.

• P50-C-128 - 10 Windows satellite updated - issue of recovery media

  I upgraded my Windows 10 laptop and have done since a recovery using the Recovery Media Creator Toshiba USB drive; My question is it will take up to 10 Windows or the original Windows 8.1?

  Are also all the drivers and the software recovered?

  Thanks for your patience - I am fairly new to this!

  Did you create a recovery key USB flash memory before upgrading Windows 10?

  Usually, the Toshiba recovery media set the laptop back to factory... to the very system that was preinstalled at the beginning.

• Generation of recovery media after changing Windows 8 for Windows 8.1

  How can I create new media recovery on the 8.1 of Windows after changing Windows 8? HP support says that only 1 set of recovery media is allowed. My original game is to Windows 8. You want to avoid having to go through the lengthy procedure of update in case I need to go through the process of recovery with my original support recovery.

  Hi @john_f_g ,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked into your problem on your HP laptop and needing to make a new copy of Windows 8.1.

  Software recovery of HP and Microsoft allows you to make only a backup recovery.

  You can order new media disc or USB flash device of here.

  Thank you.
