Recovery disc game failure

I have a currently paralyzed HP touchsmart 300-1003. I replaced a hard drive dead by a new 1 TB of HARD drive. I have my 2 sets of recovery disks touchsmart and player USB Bootable Windows 7 (made with win7 tool). The official recovery CD only go to swap CD screen. Nothing else happens. The pc reads the MBR IS MISSING press CTRL ALT DEL TO RESTART after HPLOGO.

The bios lists my new HARD drive (I can tell because the size is now 1000GO). I can't choose the USB drive as first boot in the bios or boot order (this pc has two different menus for the same function, idky). Is there a boot disk that I can use for fixmbr? Please be that kind to provide a guide to get a tactile computer linking the Spiderbeam. All online tips seem to be for computers that will go to a recovery screen already. If I could do that I wouldn't need the disks, lol.
I would like to install the touchsmart software but settle for all windows, at this point. I have 2 different sets of the HP factory recovery disks. I can't spend more on disks that do not work. Yes loads other CD, I checked a XP Setup for DVD player disk is functional, then have left.

Thanks in advance to anyone who is able to guide me through the process.

1 hour later: to use the USB MSWIN7 tool, I had to turn ON DIAGNOSTIC BOOT from BIOS, power on, let black screen read key USB configured 01, ctrlaltdel, f10 to the new bios, disable the start Diagnostics screen, save and continue to f5, then press ESC for the tiny LOGO of HP boot menu, choose USB 2.0 as first boot. The tool started as repair windows (I followed MSguide for bootsec and /fixmbr, no idea if this fixed mbr tho) and install Windows 7. I chose to install. More updates to come. I still want my touchsmart stuff! Software and capabilities are the reason why I bought the machine. :-(

Well, then, with the help of Erico my steps were:

Use ISO windows and tool Windows USB to install Win7

Download USB tool here: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

I'm sorry but I can't provide you with the windows7. ISO. I have a MSguides key and follow-up here.

Follow MS guide on fixing the MBR problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 to repair usb command-line option

Go back - install windows 7-finishing all the prompts to reboot

For the Touchsmart software: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4063&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=4007... You go back to there choose the upgrade to reach 3-4. It will take you to DEV area, click Download now, run the touch software

My answer is a mess, but the disk will NOT work.

What version of Windows 7 is installed?

Is this a version 32 or 64-bit?

TouchSmart screen drivers are available here. Select the appropriate version of the operating system via the drop-down list.

  • TouchSmart tx2-1370us Recovery Disc Set failure

    I am writing on behalf of my sister.  Here is his story:

    Screen of her laptop TouchSmart tx2-1370us broke earlier.  It's under warranty where she bought in so he was expelled to be repaired.  When he returned, the screen has been set, but there was a note indicating that they had lost its Windows 7.  The computer loaded and executed perfectly, but it was the pop-up "is not a genuine copy of windows.  She claims that she was unable to read the sticker product key the computer good enough to get it to accept anything, she entered.  When she called the store, they said that HP would be able to help get it back.  HP sold its recovery disks which were to restore the computer.  It is a 3 disc set, marked 2 System Recovery DVD Windows 7 Home Premium and 1 additional CD labeled Application & Driver recovery CD.  CDs ran several times still to come as fruitless after the first 2 CDs.  I won't get in his experience of the customer support, but she claims that she spoke on the phone with HP 6 times in the course of a week and nothing they had to say or to offer.  Always unsuccessful recovery message.  She abandoned, almost crying at this time, and I said I'll try.

    After a bit of searching I found a patch on the HP website that would supposedly solve the problem of recovery disks.  The patch was properly installed, green checkmark and all, and all 3 CDs was successfully.  The computer restarts, the screen of the Installation of the HP software ran for a while before another restart then the usual recovery failure message.  I tried many times with the same result every time.  I saved the newspaper from the last go to it and post it below.  It seems the States BIOS Vista as OS, but she bought the computer pre-loaded with Windows 7.  Could there be something in that fact cause a problem?

    Someone suggested to reset the BIOS to factory default, but that didn't work either.

    When you save the log to USB, I could see all of the files, there are 3 readers listed SDV (C Local disk (D & BOOT (X))

  • Drive hard failure - where to find recovery discs

    I have a HP G60 - 235WM system that comes with having a hard drive failure.

    Before the breakup, I tried to create a defined recovery disk but the process

    cancelled itself in the middle of the creation of the file. Since then, I've run a system recovery that seemed to work until the second day when on startup, I got the drive imminent failure Prompt and selecting Blons is no not a thing... I bought a new drive, but need to access a set of recovery discs...

    Then I bought another laptop with WIN 8.1 - questions

    Can I create a set with the 8.1 recovery disk WIN that will allow me to recover the original software Vista system?

    or where can I get a Vista system recovery disk?

    Note: the failed hard drive can be accessed via the USB port but does not start...

    Hello:

    You can call HP and see if they have a set of Vista recovery disks for your model.

    If this isn't the case, you can get them from this provider on the link below.

    http://www.computersurgeons.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ID=13223

  • Means of hard drive failure cannot use the recovery partition. Alas! recovery discs will not read!

    Hard drive decided to throw a wobbly and abandon me. I can't access the drive at all so decided to but a new and use the recovery at least discs bring the machine to its status as an out-of-box.

    That's the problem... It will not read the recovery disc. I know there is some stuff about it because I read in another machine. Until you tell me to change the DVD hardware... it reads very well all the other disks. I loaded Arcronis, as well as other system repair stuff, using the DVD Player/Recorder.

    I have a pukka Product Code for the software, Vista Home Basic. Can I get a Vista Home Basic disc and then use my key to sting?  I'm happy to pay a price, but do not want to buy at the price high. After all, I already paid for it once!

    Any help/suggestions will be much appreciated.

    Mr. Blue Screen.

    Hello

    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 activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

  • Recovery disc does not work after the failure of the system.

    Hello world

    I got an error yesterday while booting which says "not found no startup disk." I disconnected and restarted at a black screen. I panicked. I got out my hard drive and made sure it is properly connected, and it was.

    I decided to try to see if it was the operating system that crashed. I put my original recovery disks in the computer. Here are the ones I made when I bought the computer new in box Office Depot. I put the discs and the message "loading of system files", said. I thought I was home free. And then the error is come that indicates the serial number not recognized? Can someone tell me what I should do to fix this problem?

    After that I got the message. I turned the power to the computer is turned off again and put the disc in and nothing but a black screen. I used the recovery disc once before when the computer has a virus so I know they work. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    Hello

    Seems to me that it is a corruption with the hard drive.   Check if you can access the SafeMode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    You can try a system restore by using the F8 key. http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-System-Restore-how.html

    Black screen problems are usually not repairable, because it might be a corruption with hard drive. And what about drive recovery, you might receive this error message because the drive is damaged. It would be good if you contact your manufacturer immediately.

    Hello

    Here is another solution, you can try to see if you can get Windows 7 to install correctly.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the version exact same origin supplied with your laptop ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a 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 of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  • Compaq Presario cq62: can someone explain why you need recovery disc?

    Look, I want to buy a new drive hard because one broke, and when I install it on my pc (I'll have to recovery disk)? or I can install windows instantly?

    Hello

    Broke is a term very vague for a HARD drive, and if the HARD drive has some life left in it, then a clone may be possible.

    You do not have need of recovery disks, you can return your system to factory fresh, but change to another OS you have it means you don't need the recovery disc.

    As explained the situation with the drivers and applications means that you struggle to get a stable system, and the new approach factory denies all this trouble.

    If there is life in the old disk HARD a game of media recovery can be able to produce from it, perhaps a clone would also give this option, but only a remote possibility.

    Can someone help me please!

    Hello

    Ok.

    If you get a disc error, then it would seem more likely to be a hard drive failure.

    View the results you get on the test drive.  If your drive is failed then try to restore or recover simply will not work. A replacement hard drive will be necessary.

    You may be able to recover your data on the disk by putting it in an external enclosure and connect to another Windows PC.

    Hello Igor

    In my opinion, you must create recovery disk before upgrade you to Win7. I did the same thing.
    Later, if something goes wrong, you can use your disks and install Vista using the created recovery disks.

    I don't understand why you want to wait and create these disks after upgrade. This recovery creator disc doesn t create recovery image in the current state, but always the same recovery image, you got with your laptop.

    TEMPRO should work in Win7 too.

  • System Disk Image recovery and system recovery discs discs

    These terms are very confusing.

    I had 3 HP computers to office over the past 15 years and have always comes to an ERD but my luck could escape and I'm going to need one of them.

    However, I'm confused.  I thought that as HP comes with a drive D: original Image, it would be enough.

    I make records of recovery or system disk Image?  Are they the same?  My HP Advisor on this computer again I do "system recovery discs!

    I would really like someone explain (in novice language) which mean the above and what I need to do?

    I appreciate so much people in the help forums, as I learned more from them than books I have.

    Twinkie3

    Twinkie3

    Hello Twinkie3, I suggest making the game to restore HP Recovery disks.  Even if you have the recovery restore D: hard disk partition, it may be damaged or if the hard drive fails and needs to be replaced, you would not be able to access the recovery partition.

    If you have to replace the hard drive, you can only insert disc 1 of the the recovery set and put the system back as it was when shipped. Without these records, you would need to try to acquire at HP for a cost to you, and after a while, they are not available.

    The set of recovery disks cannot be done once and only be used to restore your particular system.

    Normally, it takes 3 DVD discs but can take longer depending on the size of the restore partition.

    The HP advisor don't constantly remind important you to these disk since it's a step in maintaining your system over time.

  • Can I use the recovery discs HP on a new SSD for HP Envy Windows 8?

    Hello

    I've owned my TouchSmart from HP ENVY 15 - j105sa Notebook PC, Ref. F5D08EA for a few months now and I would like to upgrade to an SSD Samsung Evo 840 (500 GB) HARD drive.

    I use the recovery disks that I created when I got the laptop to install the OS on the new SSD? I know that I could do it with previous versions of Windows, but with secureboot etc I do not know if this can be done with Windows 8, I know, it can be disabled in the BIOS, but I have the latest bios update for my laptop that I check regularly.

    Thanks for any help.

    The method the most painless way to do is to buy the new SSD as a migration kit.

    Migration kits are delivered with a USB to SATA data\power connector and cloning software.

    Recovery and recovery usb media discs games requires that the target disk is the same size or larger than the original. In using the method of migration (cloning) will show that a problem.

    It makes you, thank you.

  • Backup/recovery discs

    I would like to remind people to make a recovery disc for their computer game. I'm working on the computers of people from time to time and no one has ever. I just did a set last night for my Sony Vaio 14 Fit, it took me a long I thought he should do, but a lot less time that you place your order and waiting for a form of play Sony. #SuperUserBySony

    When I work on the computers of people, it's one of the biggest problems I have. Nobody does! Even the thought of the system and all told them to make them. the next, it's that they forget to bring their power adapter! but I have most of those for the different systems. I do mostly as favours to friends and co-workers.

  • How to create the default recovery disc factory with OneKey Recovery 4.0

    I have a K430 and before I use it (as with any machine, I bought) I wanted to make my recovery disks.

    Throughout this site there are guides to do this with version 7, but this desktop computer has version 4.0 of OKR

    I can record an image of my partition system but need the ability to install on a clean hard disk in case of hard drive failure.

    I have checked the forums and Kb and been through programs of Windows 8, but nothing shows me the right way.

    This is compounded by the fact that none of my imaging tools drive as the drive Seagate, which was delivered in this machine (Ghost4Linux, CloneZilla, Acronis Migrate Easy)

    Where is my option create said support?

    Just to close this one.

    I talked to the customer on the phone this post having remained unanswered,

    There is no recovery disc to buy or to create for this machine, should so hard drive failure you need to source your own discs.

    This machine will be returned now, a lost for the sake of a DVD sale.

    I must say the guy who talked on the phone was really helpful and courteous, unfortunately hampered by the policy of the company.
