* PLEASE HELP! How to reinstall Win7 on s205 w/o Recovery Disk?

After installing Ubuntu 10.04 as a dual-boot on the Live CD OS, whenever I turn on the netbook I get the start page of Lenovo, and then a white screen and then the start page, then white screen... loop infinite!

I tell myself that if I reinstalled Ubuntu as the OS boot simple deletion of all the rest on the HARD drive, it will work very well, but I really need to keep Win7 for professional reasons.  I don't mind losing my docs in Windows, I just want to keep the operating system.

What are my options, if any?  Is there a way I could use the product key of MS Win7 on the bottom of the machine to get a direct download of the operating system?

Thanks for your help!

There is the button (arrow sign) that you can use for okr but if you make changes on the volumes, it will stop working.

    > Satellite Pro L40 - how to make a dual boot with two recovery disks?
    Short answer: you can't do that. Maybe if you have two hard disks (I tried didn't) but as much as I know your SP L40 has only one.
    Ask this smart guy, how to do this. Maybe it's a useful tip.

    laptop is a Toshiba satellite operating system windows vista Home premium

    Hello

    With a Toshiba, if you do not have to purchase recovery disc, there will be a disk to reinstall Vista from recovery Partition.

    You press 0 (zero) to the starting power / and follow the instructions of Toshiba to reinstall back to the factory settings.

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista, you may be interested.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    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 on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers 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

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • How to install Vista on Satellite A300 without recovery disk?

    Please, I desperately need help.

    It's on the screen threre.

    He sent it to my father in Pakistan but quickly noticed it was full of viruses and it installed fresh Windows xp SP2 after formatting hard drive.

    He gave me to fix the problem. Because it is designed for windows vista. I want to install windows vista, but I do not have the disk recovery or operating any drive.

    How am I suppose to install windows vista?
    Someone told me that I have download the vista track and enter the key that is on the back of my laptop.

    Anyone with an idea. Please

    > He sent it to my father in Pakistan but quickly noticed it was full of viruses and it installed fresh Windows xp SP2 after formatting hard drive.

    It was a big mistake buddy
    The recovery disk is not shipped with the laptop because he had a tool preinstalled called creator Toshiba Recovery disk that allows you to create a clean recovery disc.
    But this is not possible because the HARD disk has been formatted and all files have been deleted.

    Now, you would not be able to recover the camera even using HARD drive recovery because the files are not available on the HARD disk.

  • Satellite A80 135 impossible to reinstall the operating system using the recovery disk

    Hello

    Ive got a laptop 2005 Satellite a80-135 that worked very well until I tried to format the HDD after a performance of Ram boost operation (kingston 1 gb Ram module).

    Just after that, the computer started showing software problems and finally crashed;
    So I decided to reinstall the entire operating system yet. and here, I found the problem I really hope you can help me

    The thing is that I can't format my hard drive to my cd player (with recovery CD in) when the machine is restarted.
    In theory, start the Panel menu should appear after the computer reboot with the C key simountaneously key but nothing happens.

    Thanks in advance
    concerning
    jozze

    Hello

    Simply, the C button the STRANGE start.
    You can also try to press F12 after the laptop has been powered.
    Then the start menu should appear on the screen and then you could choose the ODD (optical disc) in order to boot from the CD.

    If this is not possible, the question is perhaps related to WEIRD malfunction or recovery disk.
    Maybe the CD/DVD drive cannot read the disc properly and so the laptop can not boot from the disc.
    You can try to copy the recovery CD using another computer and might try to start using the copied CD.
    If it does not the problem might be related to the WEIRD failure.

    Hello

    Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    http://eSupport.Sony.com/

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

  • How to free space on the hard drive recovery disk?

    My J: drive (recovery) is near capacity after a reinstall of Windows 7. How to clear space on this drive?

    Hi John R H,
     
    The purpose of the training of recovery is to store all the files needed to do disaster recovery, when the system becomes unstable. The recovery disk is actually a partition on the hard drive of your computer - not a real physical disk. There is much less space than other drives. If you use the recovery disk to store files (such as backup files), the reader is full quickly and can cause serious problems when you need to use the system recovery.
    Note: Do not store files on the recovery drive. The only files on the recovery disk should be linked to a system recovery.
    Here's a post that addresses a similar issue. To resolve this issue, check the suggestion given in the post.

  • Help! -New Dell i3847 - Windows 7 Pro - Dell Recovery Disk Win 8.1 & DBaR don't make a backup of the system

    I bought a new Dell i3847 and it has Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed at the factory on it.

    I wanted to make a complete backup of the system, but the Dell Backup and Recovery software does not allow me to make a backup of the system.  In addition, I was unable to create a system recovery disk using Dell backup and restore.

    I can't use the drive system recovery expected Dell because it clearly states Windows 8.1

    (1) why is a Win 8.1 drive included with a Win 7 Pro 64 bit system?

    (2) what is the problem with Dell backup and recovery that she:

    (a) cannot create a recovery disc factory

    (b) allow me to create a backup system so I can go back to the factory State

    Help!

    It has been 2.5 hours and it is still "initialize disk" to create a recovery of the plant.  It usually somewhere fails during initialization or in writing.    Spend hours for each failed attempt to create a factory recovery disc is NOT GOOD!

    The factory restore disk was finally created.

    Dell is now a person pays create a backup system and the user must download a update to do so.

    Microsoft has a tool to create a system image and make a recovery / restore disc which is free.

    So, I used DBaR do restore disk by the factory.

    However, to make a system image and a recovery / restore for that, I used windows 7 built in software.
