recovery disc help please?

What model name and number is your office?

Compaq

sr1930t

What operating system is installed?

Windows xp

I ordered the HP recovery disk. It took 3 hours and a half for me to end with all the 15 disc. I followed the instructions and pulled out the last cd and restarted the computer. Then a blue screen indicates that the computer restarts several times to complete the installation, and then click ok.it rebooted several times but never got the ok to restart the computer again. It's Friday, it's now Sunday. During the process, I noticed a windows script error that says... can not find script/tmp/src/install/worldwide/compaq/others/shimshorts?

I got a deskstop with icons but no taskbar. Afraid to try to restart because may need to start the process again.

It is...

The computer is finished? How long does it take? And where is the task bar?

Thanks a lot for any assistance with this.

Thanks for the help.  First of all, I took out my memory card and replace the po (don't know if that helped or not). I restarted the whole process again. This time, do not click ok after each disc I let the computer's own admission. I am downloading update and get a new virus detector now.

  • Toshiba Recovery Disc help

    Hello.

    Last week, I had to do a full system restore to remove a virus. Because I didn't have any disk boot of Windows 7 at the time, I decided to boot linux (ubuntu) on the computer to make sure that my system works ok. Today, I received my discs of 3 recovery by post media, but I have no idea how to use. The instructions say "Insert disc or the disc #1 this series, in the drive and follow the instructions on the screen." No sense arose. I need to delete linux first? If so, how should I do that. I have no way to get Windows on this computer, unless these recovery disks. Thank you.

    Hello

    first of all, you must enter the bios and set Cd/dvd-rom as boot device 1st in boot priority option. Press f10 to save and exit. Insert the 1 recovery disk and follow the instructions on the screen.

    > Should I delete linux first?

    I don't think that Linux can cause any problem...

  • Error 25014 trying to install Lenovo Thinkvantage Rescue and Recovery! Help, please!

    Hello! Recently, I have restored my laptop with a general copy of Windows 7 pro 64-bit. I had to redo all the drivers and software (of course). I had installed Rescue and Recovery before but never used. I tried to reinstall it today and he throws back each time with the same error message (error code 25014 = 6)! I had installed linux but deleted and installed Windows again. I also have a 21 not used same GB partition (I have no idea how to combine). Any advice on how to work will appreciate it! Thanks for your help in advance!

    RC 25014 = 6 error is error install boot RNR Manager.

    Provide information:

    (1) your machine ship of Lenovo, with Lenovo factory system? If Yes, what operating system has been installed? Vista, windows 7 home, pro etc? This would install with 3 partitions: system_drv, Lenovo recovery, (C).

    (2) you say: I recently restored my laptop with a general copy of Windows 7 pro 64-bit

    Not that this means that you do not have a Lenovo factory restore, but actually installed a commercial version of win7 pro?

    I'll assume win7 pro retail for now.

    (3) you say: I had installed Rescue and Recovery before but never used.

    It was in the past, lets say on a shipped factory system Lenovo?

    (4) you declare: had installed linux but deleted and installed Windows again. I also have a not used 21 same GB partition

    ===

    It seems to me, your HARD drive had a top system.  I see Ubuntu mentioned in your other posts. Your HARD drive had several parttions, including the 21 GB partition. Then, you have decided to install a retail version of windows 7 pro.

    During a sale at retail of windows installation, you must pay attention as to where it will install.

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/1649-clean-install-Windows-7-a.html

    Note steps 7 and 8.

    It seems that you did the windows installation disk HARD existing, with the pre-existing partitions.

    ===

    RC = 6

    The simple answer is THAT NRR is already installed.  Did you uninstall RNR before installation?

    The answer is complex:

    During the installation of RBR went to add its boot manager entries, BCD (startup control data), he did NOT like the content of the BCD, IE other entries parked in the BCD, ie, Linux. He expects to have 2 slots used in BCD, windows, and windows RE.

    ===

    Reflect this. See if it fits your situation.

    ==

    I would erase the HARD disk via a standalone utility, then install win 7 pro retail and all issues should dissipate.

    This erase/delete can be done during the installation of windows.  refer to steps 7 and 8 above.

  • Problems of recovery. Help, please.

    Hello

    I have the Hp Pavilion Dv3-4305se, which has the Windows 7 home premium 64-bit Edition.

    I installed a game and started playing it then my phone locked, and I had restart it manually, after the reboot, (it started normally), but he stops just before the users page and used to give me a black page, I tried to make the recovery, but I faced the same problem.

    I took it for someone who did a format (but left the recovery partition) and I installed a fake copy of windows 7 Professional. and now it works, but I want to do the recovery partition recovery and restore factory settings.

    I tried to make the recovery, but I do not have the Hp Recovery Manager.

    Kind regards

    PS: The recovery partition shows there 4.05 GB of free space of 33.75 Go.

    Hello

    It may be that the recovery Partition is damaged or is inaccessible for another reason - your best option is to reinstall using your recovery DVD, as this will be not only to reinstall the original operating system, but also to recreate the hard disk recovery Partition.

    If you do not have your recovery DVD, you can order a replacement set using the link below.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00810334

    If you have a problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

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

So I did, Bam, same message. It might be the disk or something as I said, but I don't know! Its really annoying me now, please help!

    Oh and I do not computer language can you please make it simple for me...

    Thank you!!

    Here is the download of recovery for Vista instead of Windows7 drive: http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/.  The thing is, I'm not sure you can use this drive for a boot recovery - you need an Installation of Vista disc.

    If you can get your hands on an Installation of Windows Vista genuine disc, then here are some procedures to fix the BOOTMGR missing (you can try repair system with the Neosmart disk but honestly, I don't think that will work - you need to do the other procedure):

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ·        Do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

    If this does not resolve the problem, try the following:

    To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.

    2. press a key when you are prompted.

    3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.

    4. click on repair your computer.

    5. click on the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.

    6. in the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.

    7. type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

    Note If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup problem, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. In doing so, you ensure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the command prompt Windows RE:

    ·        bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup

    ·        c:

    ·        Boot CD

    ·        BCD attrib s h - r

    ·        Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old

    ·        Bootrec /RebuildBcd

    Good luck and I hope this helps!

  • T430s will not restart, can someone please explain how to use the 4 recovery discs?

    So I bought a Lenovo T430s, with Windows 8.1 almost 2 years (off warranty now). It comes frozen, has started to beep, then turns off, and now it won't restart. When I turn it on, it always goes to the black and blue screen that offers a Boot Menu and a Menu of Application. The Start Menu has 2 options: ATAPI CDO: MAST * beep * ADVD - RAM UJ8C2 and PCI LAN: IBA GE Slot 00C v1536 8.

    When I bought the laptop, it came with 4 disks. Two of them say "Windows 8 Recovery for Windows 8 Media products", and the other two say "operating system recovery disc, Windows 8 Pro (OEM Activation required 3.0)". "

    I don't know what that most of this way. Can someone explain how I can fix or restart my laptop? I wonder if I am supposed to use a bootdisk of some, although it is at a certain menu option... I really appreciate any help

    The first item in the Startup tab is 'Boot', Yes?

    Press enter and start > splash screen should display with something like a list of the Boot priority order .

    What do you see that listed there?

    Kind regards.

  • Pavilion dv6: recovery disc creation-help

    Hi all! I've a questione.and I hope that someone can help me. I would create a creation of... hp recovery disk recovery disk but when it gets in the first screen "Welcome to the recovery disc creation and I click on 'next'... and a call to error window with the Message that there is no free space in the partition of sistem.» But in the score system is only recovery... that ' s the solution for creatina a recovery disk? Thanks for the reply.

    Hey @Alessia_to,

    Before I provide documentation of troubleshooting, I would like to take a few minutes to welcome you to the community of Support HP, where you can ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! I read your post and see that you need help creating recovery disks.

    Here is a document for you to read called create recovery discs or record a recovery Image on a USB Flash drive. I pulled some information in the document for you. The first thing that I would like to share with is only DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD + R or DVD + R DL disks are compatible with the design of recovery media program. The next disk types are not compatible with the design of recovery media program:

    • CDs
  • Help! Maybe I need the recovery disc for pavilion d4790y... + I think I messed...

    I had problems with my office for awhile now, think it might be a fan, virus, hard drive or ram as in my previous post... the computer would freeze/crash or not stop, requiring a firm hard. trying to reboot/restart computer, it would beep several times until I have let it sit for a few minutes, then everything was back to normal (found that might have been an error in the BIOS after all this happened)...

    Now, I have NOT touched or replaced all the components on my computer at all. Nothing! Now I have a debate on the upgrade of OS and RAM, but did not decide whether it was worth on this older machine. So I have done no amendment or change in software. the only change I made to it was not renew norton and goes with vast (free).

    The other day, it suddenly wouldn't boot Win Vista 32 in all. My monitor at startup (before config utility appears) had colored vertical lines across the screen. I immediately thought 'virus' or ' fan isn't card graphic blown is screwed/false driver downloaded... I enter safe mode with network, no problem with the monitor (no lines) and tried driver restore, but also to download nividia the updated. Nothing seemed to work except safe mode (s), system configuration, start the Setup program, CTRL I (don't remember which menu is), & screen of the system restore/repair/diagnose. I tried all the reboot thing pilots config, patterns of change (hard disk only), boot it. When you go to the splash screen (a back screen on startup), no line either... I tried the system restore, did not a thing... I tried the verification of diagnosis, all right... all equipment, the repair of the system did nothing...

    So I take the side box power off to check the components inside to see if any wiring was loose, fans not working/salty, etc... everything OK there besides fan a little dirty. Clean, same thing. Here comes the fun part...

    Now, I backed up all my files and 'backup' on my external hard drive... I thought that I had made the recovery discs or he had came with it when I bought it... I changed the configuration settings RAID0 by removing the old installation and turned to the raid no drives. Then, I created a RAID0 again... I guess you know where this is going...

    He said now insert the boot cd... Now, it of not anything but let me in Control Panel and change the startup preferences...

    I have no recovery disk or I can't find what happened if I have... with backup (for USB) external drives will not work... I kind of looking online hp without result and I saw some online, but that seems pretty shady, especially with the case of the OS...

    I will not buy another office, if I can help it, but I need to know if there is something I can do?

    Thank you

    .

    Hello:

    Yes, I've been able to do it once, but you also need an operating system installation disk. You need a USB FDD + OS installation disc and the correct drivers of course on the floppy drive.

    You can use a recovery for this drive yet. It must be an OS installation disc.

    Yes have ultimate could be a problem. If you enter your model number on this site of surgeons in the computer, you get a lot of options showing the recovery disks for different versions of the OS, but only had listed actually drives.

    You need to call HP and ask or email these surgeons computer guys and see if they have the recovery disc for ultimate games.

  • Need help to use a recovery disc for v3 - 551

    Sorry for my English, still a student.

    OK, so after having received these 5 discs, one being the system disk, recovery of 1, 2, 3 then language pack.

    The problem is I deleted my partition on the HARD drive so that I have order the recovery disk because apperently I can restore my system with the factory settings. The instructions State to

    1: Insert the disc labeled System.

    2: reboot the computer and press f12

    3:when you are prompted for the recovery disc, remove the system disk and insert the first disc of recovery. blah blah ect

    So apperently I have the "system disk" boot up first then I can use the recovery disks. The problem is that I am unable to because in order to start this system disk, I need to set up in the UEFI bios 'comes like this to factory settings' that's fine. Boots/loads fine then once for the disc to load Finally I gives me two options.

    1: new installation of system disk C:

    2: restore all partitions of HARD drive (it's what I want), but once I chose option 2 I get the notice "Please start this recovery disk using BIOS legancy mode. I even then choose option 1, same message.

    If I change the settings of the bios to legancy I can't load the disc then get this message 'WARNING fail' telling me I need UEFI mode.

    So, uh, Yes, ideas?

  • My computer won't let me not reinstall windows because he thinks that it is 32-bit and does not recognize the installation discs. Help please?

    My computer has not worked since I stopped him during an automatic update. Which I have been kicking myself since then, but the last time that he updated, he beat the computer and I panicked.

    Anyway, it won't run certain programs, including iTunes and a large part of MS Office, and no matter how many times I try to reinstall, they still do not work, saying: "side by side configuration is incorrect."

    What I want is to restore it to factory settings - all my data is secured and sustained upward. But when I put in my recovery disks (and they are the highest boot priority in the BIOS) the system takes care of the hard drive as usual. When I remove the ability to boot from the hard drive, my system no reserves at all, telling me to restart or insert a suitable disc. And when I boot from the disk and try to run it manually, by clicking ETFSBOOT, it tells me that "the version of this file is not this version of the file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are using. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need a x 86 (32 bit) or an x 64 (64-bit) version of the program. »

    I have double and triple checked this - my system is 64-bit. My records are 64-bit. As far as I know, the computer got garbled during the automatic update and now part of it think it's 32-bit (some programs are divided into sections 32-bit and 64-bit). All I want to do is to reinstall windows, but I don't know what to do because it does not recognize my discs! Any suggestions, internet?

    Thank you very much.

    In addition, if it is relevant, I'm Windows Vista on an ASUS K50IJ laptop. I do not have the windows install disc because the computer was shipped with windows installed, but I have the recovery disc ASUS (which have been used to restore my computer in the past).

    Hello

    Since you are unable to open programs like iTunes or Office, you can try to perform the system restore and check if it helps.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

    System restore

    About the factory restore the question, you need to contact ASUS support for additional help on ASUS recovery disks.
