Problems of recovery with recovery disks

Hi I have a compaq presario cq61 and I had a bug and tent to recover when I turn it on it says error of hard disk 1 then when I insert recovery disk it says Error 100 a, but I don't know what the problem with it any suggestions of what could be wrong?

Hello

1 hard drive error message you see when you start the laptop would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  This is also consistent with the problem to start your recovery disks.

If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disk replaced - you can check the status of your warranty here.

If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, please let me know - include the full model number and laptop CQ61 series Nr - see here for an explanation.

Kind regards

  • Mirar toolbar problems and recovery disk?

    My kids accidentally downloaded the Mirar Toolbar, and it has really raised heck with my count. I'm not knowledgeable enough to go into the registry and fix everything, but managed to slow it down a bit. I get pop up Windows I am in another site, and also if I try to go anywhere in a search engine, it refers me to a different search site. Real boring!  A friend told me that I have to throw everything away and start again, but I don't have a disk for my windows XP, or the original dic of HP with all the drivers I needed to reinstall. What are my options? Help!  My model is P9816A, HP Pavillion 04.

    Hello fairtime2, sorry to hear about your problems with your HP computer. It seems you might have a virus. From your description, it seems to be a virus.

    You normally would not have any disk backup of your system, but rather a backup of partition on your hard disk to restore the system to its original state when shipped from HP.

    Here a link to how to restore from recovery for your computer. You will lose all the data added to the computer, since you started using it.

    Just look at the Windows XP Recovery section.

    As your system is so unstable, you may not be able to accomplish this from Windows.

    On some systems, when the system boots, you can see a screen that will show you a few options.

    Just look at the recovery section during startup.

    One of these options is for a restoration of recovery. Simply press the F10 key repeatedly to enter this recovery restore utility.

    Choose to format the hard drive. You will get an error that all data will be lost, but just continue and in 15 minutes, the system must be restored to its original state.

    This seems to be the only way to recover from some of these nasty viruses.

    I hope this helps.

  • Problem with the HP G62 recovery disks

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with the restoration of the operating system on your laptop HP G-62. When I first bought the laptop, I was unable to make the recovery discs, so I ordered recently a few new HP. Because I have installed Ubuntu on the laptop, I wiped it from the disk hard drive used Wipedrive to remove the old Ubuntu operating system I had installed.

    Laptop computer reads the first disc ok and installs the component of windows, but when the screen lights up asking the two disc number it freezes and never installs anything when you try to move anything that used to screen it doesn't matter what and he used to install the second disk. He repeats just 'Please wait '.

    Thank you, Robert

    Hi, Robert:

    I can't help you get the recovery disks to work, but if you can read all 25 characters of the product key 7 windows on the bottom of your PC, you can do your own installation disc 7 windows to reinstall the operating system.

    Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • Pavilion G7-1328dx: I have a problem with recovery disks

    I have recived a message error (error bios 501) was one that says windows could not start at this point I did a system restore, it worked then it instaled updates and when I turned it off it seamed ok a few days elapsed before I go back and it didn't start so I tried to do the same restore point who had worked but im guess I chose the one bad because after that I could get in the bios for the test command and start system and info windows recovery tool not forbear even so I am really crazy and just ordered the HP recovery disks have tried a couple of times he says it didn't I saved a copy of the details , but I don't know how to open it so I can copy and past I also tried putting it in a windows disk because I realized that one problem I had is a new hard drive my boyfriend out the HDD without asking and wiped it and put it in his laptop, my friend was helping me with the laptop, but cannot stop now can someone please help

    Assume your drive recovery is ongoing demand... because the 501 error has not might be related to your operating system... or the hard drive...

    Maybe think I didn't read clearly on your description, but it seems that you already have recovery files broken, or the HARD drive is on form, no? Suggest that you call service help find someone help on data recovery. If the HARD drive has already been fomatted, it will take a few HARD drive recovery professional technician to do this action, using special equipment or tools. Sometimes it can get the restored data sometimes it breaks down, according to the State of the HARD drive. If he's already got formatt low level, it would be very unlikely to recover data... Then... you'd call better help service. Hope you can recover data.

    If you have already saved data I just re - install the operating system. It is easier. Alternatively, you can call the service provide the recovery disc number (printed on the label on the disc) see it's the right disc for your device. And try to use the right disc for re-installing.

  • Satellite A500 - problems with the creation of recovery disks

    Hello
    I bought a Satellite A500 yesterday and now I'm trying to create the recovery discs before anything else.
    However, towards the end of the 1st DVD I get an error message saying "Faile dto open the next file. e:\Boot\BCD (0201123-F1-00000000 error code)"and then when I click 'OK', the DVD is ejected giving a message"unable to create recovery 1' media. Physical examination, I noticed that the DVD is written almost entirely.

    Any advise on this? In addition, in the interface, it shows a USB option and says to insert a USB media with more than 7 GB of free. That I can use it to create the recovery disk? If Yes, when I reinstall windows 7, this allows as a bootable drive?

    Greately appreciate any help on this matter. If it is defective, I want to return as soon as POSSIBLE.

    Thank you
    Mercier.

    As far as I know, that you can not use external device for recovery, it is therefore very important create recovery DVDs.

    Try to create the recovery disk using only DVD-R media. Use high quality media like TDK or Verbatim.
    Last month, I've created on the Satellite A500-157 recovery discs and everything went well.

  • Problem Win7 HPE-150ff recovery with recovery disks

    Hi - I have a desktop HP HPE-150ff under Windows & Home Premium computer which had the HARD drive go bad.  Original is a 1 to Seagate - I bought a 2 TB Seagate ST2000101, 6 Gb/s, 7200 RPM HARD drive to replace it.  I removed the old drive and connected the new drive and started the recovery using recovery disks that I made when the PC was new.  Like others here, things seemed to be going well until he completed the download and tried to restart.  Next, I get the dreaded "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on this computer hardware.

    If it works, I live just with that because I have no idea why do not have the recovery disks.

    You have only the mouse, the keyboard and the monitor connected to the PC during the recovery, correct?

    You are right, because a 2 TB HDD in your relatively modern PC should work very probably.

  • Problems with Vista for a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pi 2512 recovery disks.

    I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pi 2512. I need to re install Vista using recovery disks that I created. However when I get to step 3, he tells me all the data will be deleted one get a "Script error 794: (Null)"message. " The laptop, then restarts. Can someone help? Please, I beg you!

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    As it happened with Fujitsu, you 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

    I can't create a recovery using Toshiba picture disc. DVDs are dismissed as empty when they are empty. DVD R/W burning OK with Microsoft and Nero software. How can I get a fix for this problem? TIA ZIZOUETZIZOU

    TOSHIBA recovery disk can be created with preinstalled Toshiba media recovery ONLY tool creator.
