Recovery for windows 8

I bought a windows 8 Lenovo g580 of tiger direct. I would like to know how can I create a recovery disc that installs a new copy of windows?

I bought the computer with these Specs: 4 GB, 3rd generation i5, Windows 8, 2.5 ghz, Intel HD $4000 to 450 graphics card.

Hi Leclerc,

Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo!

For Windows 8, there no option to create recovery disk, you can creat is a backup drive.

follow this article on creating one.

    Here are the different ways to reinstall vista

    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

  • I didt create a disk recovery for windows 7 Home premium, and I lost the original and the recovery partition

    I didt create a disk recovery for windows 7 Home premium and I lost the original and the recovery partition, but I have still the product key and the same laptop that was originally installed with windows 7 copy and now im turning my laptop with a fake copy, how to restore the original copy of windows 7?

    Hello

    You have certainly reduced your options

    The only legal Windows 7 download available is now Microsoft, as Microsoft has stopped DigitalRiver Windows 7 ISO downloads.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery

    But Microsoft only provides these downloads for Windows 7 keys to selling product at retail, not preinstalled OEM product keys (Dell, HP, etc.).

    As you have licensed preinstalled OEM (Dell, HP, etc.), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they need to provide for a fee, if they still have them available.

    Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

    See you soon.

  • How can I request a drive recovery for windows 7

    I need to reinstall windows 7 on my acer computer. I didn't know that I had a backup when I got to my computer. It is now closed and I went back to the factory settings awhile, but I think there must be files or missing discs. So I need to get a recovery for her cd.

    Hi Vijay,
    I'm sorry that I don't have back you you more soon
    Won't happen.
    Thanks for your help, do not know what is happening. Its a little weird. I get no error message. just, it stops, in the middle of some Im just doing breaks down.
    When it started, it's only when you play gem on facebook. Then any game. So whatever it is, even though I guarantee you it will turn off is I play a game with gems or Exchange 3. But everything, he decided just when or if she stops.
    I start in safe mode, many times without change, I took it back to the factory, made settings that there are no programs which were not pre installed, then, he started in safe mode. No luck.
    Yes it is pre installed by acer, and it is a model 5741 processor intel i5.
    Check each driver.
    And so on and so forth...
    I've tried everything. The most frustrated GRR.

    Help, please
    Thanks again

    Jenny

    None of the messages, no blue screen and stops instantly?  Sounds like a hardware problem possibly the result of damage of the heat over time.  Could be overheating CPU, graphics card or power supply dying.

    A clean install is unlikely to solve anything, if it's a hardware problem.
  • HP Pavilion P6 2330: recovery for windows desktop cd 8 OEM

    Hello

    I recently found that my hard drive has failed. In fact, does not start upward. I have Acronis software to try to duplicate the hard disk, but he says there are bad sectors and I can't make a copy of a new SSD. Most of my personal files is stored on USB flash drives and I was able to get the files on the hard drive is dead, but I can't get the OEM operating system out of the old drive. What can I do to get a disk recovery or another copy of windows 8 without having to buy another OS?  Or y at - it another way to try to get something out of my drive dead?

    Thanks for any help

    Thank you for the information, @TerryWS.

    I hear what you say.  However, it is Microsoft's policy not to let OEMs such as HP, provide the recovery media using disks.  They allow only a copy from the application that comes with the computer when you buy it.  If you did not the media when you purchased the computer, your only option is to buy it.  I would like to have better news for you.

    Here is the 'how' of the section for the recovery of the system, backup and restore.  There is a guide to help you make the recovery media.

  • Repair system and recovery for Windows XP

    Windows XP > system repair and recovery

    June 25,2010, to increase my internet speed high speed, my grandson changes made, removing and adding things. I tried to repair and recover the changes, but were unable to. Recover was unable to recover. I'm unable to open all the files, they can be found. Have I not options to recover my XP for the date, he incredibly did these changes?

    Be gentle, old... and try to learn

    Well, what he was doing was passed me to google Chrome, which, said, has increased the speed of the internet (he said it was slow) it then apparently deleted some of my Windows programs. He said some Windows updates were too old and I no longer need. I tried to go back to June 24 to get things deleted, but recovery has given me a different date of July 13 and would not allow the date 24. On the recovery screen, programs that have been deleted on June 25 have been identified, which is how do I know that it was deleted.

  • How to make a recovery for windows disk 8.

    Hi, I have a HP Pavilion 15. It comes without an operating system. So I buy Win8 and will do a clean install on my book. But I want to create a recovery partation which holds all the windows files and drivers etc... As a pre installed recovery partition books. I mean that if I ever need to refresh or reset my book, I can do without clean new install and use again all other media.

    Creating a system image is good idea but it will sometimes corrupt and some it delete by mistake. I search online, but everyone speaks only how to create a boot able usb recovery disc or a DVD of 253 MB. I hope that I'll find a strong solution here.

  • photo recovery for Windows Live Photo Gallery that have been deleted from the Recycle Bin

    By mistake I deleted a folder containing photos. Then I emptied the trash before realizing that the file was with other things that I had deleted. How can I get these pictures? Help!

    You can download some like this free data recovery software to recover deleted files.

    1 panda Recovery http://www.pandorarecovery.com

    2 recuva http://www.snapfiles.com/get/recuva.html

    If you want to try these recovery programs to recover your lost data, then you must immediately stop using your hard disk in order to not replace the data you want to retrieve.

    How does it work?

    When you delete a file on the FAT32 or NTFS file system, its content is not erased the disc, but only the reference to the data file in the file Table of Allocation or the master file Table is marked as deleted. This means that you might be able to recover files deleted, or to be visible through the file system again.

  • Model number:-n010TX: recovery of windows media 8

    Mr President.

    I had my HP laptop pavilion in November 2013. It came with 8 pre-installed windows. I upgraded Windows 8.1 by March, 2014 and it worked fine for a few weeks, after which, the laptop has detected a hardware failure. I had a HP technician install a pirated windows 8 on my pc and it also gave me a series of DVDs of recovery for windows 8 to be used on a HP or compaq PC.

    It is a set of 3 DVDs 'system recovery' and 1 DVD "valorization of the pilot. The problem starts when I insert the first DVD of system recovery. He didn't autolay not. I checked with control panel and made sure that the "Use AutoPlay for all media and devices" option is checked. But autopsies shows two options: -.

    1 open the folder to view the files, and

    2. don't do anything.

    Now, on the DVD it says: "insert the disk and follow the instructions on the screen. But there is no on-screen instructions.

    I opened the folder and it contains a lot of files with names that I don't understand. Please let me know how I can get the DVD to play automatically.

    Thank you
