• W700ds: Select RAID using recovery media created

  Hello!

  I am owner of a ThinkPad W700ds, but I guess my question will be answered there as well if it were a W700... Please, any help would be great!

  I bought a "used" W700ds with Windows Vista Business (COST and recovery partition intact, but no media provided). The laptop has been published with RAID0, but I was always doubtful that it has been implemented correctly. I spent some time he investigation this afternoon and noticed that the BIOS has not been configured correctly - it was set to AHCI instead of the RAID.

  I did the following:

  (1) created using the installation in the ThinkVantage software recovery media.
  (2) RAID enabled in the BIOS
  (3) entered in the RAID (Ctrl + I) starting at the top. I configured as RAID0 readers.
  (4) reinstalled Windows Vista using the recovery media created in (1) above.

  After completing the installation of Windows Vista would be failed to start - always BSOD'ing.

  I repeated step 3 & 4 above, select RAID1 instead. Exactly the same problem.

  I have since return to the setting of the AHCI BIOS and reinstalled Windows Vista using the recovery media and I'm back where I started (Windows installed, but in a RAID array).

  I did some research and it seems that in the RAID drivers are not included in the recovery media and this is the reason for the BSOD. I've included some of the many websites I read, both for your reading and, somehow, to check that I really spent some time to the consideration of this issue before asking for help.

  Media recovery that I created, that's all I have - is there a 'stand-alone' for me way to activate RAID? I prefer RAID1 (I would favour redundancy over the speed), but would be happy with RAID0 if this is not possible. It seems it is scandalous that Lenovo (aware - and obviously not "expected" as alternative installation media is considered a book 'around') offer the possibility to create recovery media, which does not have to reinstall Windows by using a configuration valid.

  It seems that it is not possible to maintain the RAID by Lenovo R & R, which probably explains why the seller announced the ThinkPad RAID, but it did not come to me as such (the seller has used the recovery partition to restore laptop to factory for me state before ending our sale - makes sense!). It seems a shame to have a laptop that offers RAID functionality and has the necessary equipment (RAID controller and two disks) and hit a sort of brick on software restrictions. Can someone advice how can I proceed to reinstall Windows with the disks in a RAID array, as I have only the Lenovo recovery media?

  Lenovo support are closed today due to the day Bank holiday UK but I'll try next time - but I'm afraid my fate is in your hands already, like the ThinkPad is out of warranty.

  Thank you!!

• Re: Satellite recovery disk creating problem C660-10 d

  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.
  So I t understand why you use software from Microsoft and Nero.

  Did you check user manuals document s and the chapter on the recovery media creation?

  To create recovery DVDs I recommend you to use empty DVD-R virgins only.

• Satellite C650 14U: recovery media creates the recovery partition?

  Hello, I used the recovery media creator to create a USB flash drive recovery media.

  If I can use that to restore Windows 7 installation on a new hard drive (as the SSD) will be the drive itself have the recovery media on that partition?

  So if I then lose the USB could restore again by pressing zero when turn?

  Or it does not retrieve the Windows partition and nothing more?

  Thank you

  First of all, the new hard drive itself has no partition recovery on it. The recovery partition is a copy of the system partition and locates at another location, therefore, restored from a recovery media unit contains just the partition system without recovery partition.

  Second, if you have a recovery on a local disk partition, you can always restore by pressing zero when power on/off. If this isn't the case, I am sorry to say that you don't you have no source of food.

  In third place, somehow, we can say that it only retrieves the system partition.
  PS: just my personal knowledge.

• Can I delete the second partition after recovery media creating?

  Hey,.

  I just create recovery media, with 2 DVDs and I wonder if I can now delete the partition on the HARD disk, which contains a folder named "HDDRecovery" called 'Data'

  I ask here because I don't want to do something stupid. Thanks in advance for the answer

  Hello

  There is nothing special, just remove them as you usually do. The thing most important you have already made the recovery discs. :)

• Recovery discs creating problem

  Hello

  I just bought a Lenovo 3000 N500 3 DG and I have this problem when I try to create the recovery disks:

  I do double click on unity of q, and the system then asks me if I want to do the recovery disks. Then I click 'Yes' and the system creates a first disc succesfully (labeled "disc 1 product thinkvantage recovery"), but then I inserted a DVD to make the second disc and when the system is it creates about 80-90%, an error occurs and the process is interrupted. This error occurs whenever I try to create the second DVD, exactly at the same point in the creative process. I tried a few types of DVD and none of them works.

  I think this may be due to a failure of the windows vista software, recording, because when I burn a DVD with Nero everything is Ok and when I try to burn a CD with windows, that an error occurs at the end of the process of the. Could someone tell me how to do the recovery discs?

  I also have a second question: the laptop comes with windows vista Home premium pre-installed, and I want to downgrade to XP Professional. Does anyone know if the warranty expires during a downgrade? And if I decide to do the downgrade, then I remove the three partitions (C:, q and S or the S: partittion is necessary for recovering the system?)

  Thank you!

  Please take a look at the solution in this post to see if that helps your situation. To let us know.

  If you upgrade to XP is not invalidated your warranty, the warranty covers the hardware and not software.

  If you create recovery discs for your Vista installation, you can delete all partitions, recovery CD will be recreated them when you use them.

  Hope this helps

• recovery drive creating problem

  Hello-I have a desktop Lenovo K430 with win8 64bits, 12 GB memory and 1 TB of HARD drive. My problem is that I can't create a recovery disk. I use a 2 GB Flash disk for the recovery disc.

  I have printed to create a retrieval Support of Windows USB drive article. I checked for a recovery partition using the command prompt and received the following response after entering the following command line: C:\windows\system32>recing\show current

  There is no active custom recovery image.

  I followed the procedure to create a restore partition and received the following reply after you enter mkdir Image C:\Refesh to the command prompt and recimg-CreateImage C:\RefreshImage at the command prompt: recimg-CreateImage is not recognized as an internal or external command. If there is correction of this error please provide correction. Otherwise, I hope that a correction is coming. Thank you. I have attachments of these reported problems, but I couldn't find a link to attach documents.

  Hi Wardell,

  You will be able to boot from the recovery drive by changing the boot priority in the BIOS (BIOS). However, it is good to know that you check it. Let us know the results.

• No CD operating system created by the function 'Create the recovery media' - Windows/Vista/SP1

  I bought a R61 with Vista Business installed for the purpose of this downgrade to Windows/XP. I noted with interest that the system had arrived with VISTA/SP1 is installed. First thing I did was summon the Thinkvantage Rescue to create and support recovery in the case where I decided to go back to Vista at some point in the future. After you have created all of the proceeds of the recovery disks and being the creative professional that I am, I decided to test the newly created disks. Three DVD has been created. When I tried to restore the system from these backups, I learned that I didn't have a CD of the operating system. None of the 3 DVD was recognized as a CD of the operating system. Unfortunately at this point in the process, the hard drive had been wiped out and I didn't have a working computer. My only alternative was to restore using the recovery media to Windows/XP that were in the area and call Lenovo and request recovery Vista media. They arrived very quickly, so I deleted the XP image and restore the image of Vista from Lenovo's Vista recovery disks. I was very disappointed to discover that there was no SP1 Vista recovery disks. To make matters worse, when I tried to call the 'create recovery media' of this image of Vista, I even created a box of 3 DVD recovery DVDs that once again, did not contain an operating system CD.

  I find myself with the situation that I can't get the exact picture that was on my computer, when it left the factory. I don't know that besides as SP1, it should have been revised pilots and others who came with this machine originally, and which I am not aware. These could create strange incompatibilities I had to install Vista/Sp1 from the Microsoft site on top of the current generation of Vista.

  Is it possible to get a Vista Business/Sp1 for the R61 recovery support?

  Moreover, my computer is Windows XP now and recovery media created from this environment of work like a charm. I know. I tried them.

  It took a few months to get a handle on this, but here is the final solution.

  First of all, the person who suggested that if the first media was on DVD, to copy it to a CD to work had no idea what they were talking about. Either works just as well, even if Lenovo suggests that the first must be a CD.

  As usual, the 'problem' was caused by poor documentation. When you perform a set of recovery using Rescue and Recovery Media, you do not create an "operating system CD", and this is normal. When you get a set of recovery CD / DVD from Lenovo, you will always get one which is marked "operating system CD.

  Different sets through processes of different recovery and rescue and recovery needs to know what kind of game you have, it allows to perform the correct process.  It does this by asking the question "Do you have an OS CD?" Based on the answer she executes a process or another and expects different content on the CD / DVD that are presented to him. You cannot mix DVD upward between the two processes. If you say Reccue and recovery that you have a CD of the operating system (ie. provided by Lenovo) and present it with media created by you using the process of "Creating rescue media", the recovery fails.

  Finally, I went back and restored my machine using the DVD that I created initially using Rescue and Recovery. I answered 'NO' to the question "Do you have an OS CD?" and ended with a perfectly functional R61 VISTA/SP1. He didn't stay for long, however. Then I reinstalled XP using the provided Lenovo recovery CD, I answered YES to the question and ended up with a fully functional XP R61. Now, everything's fine.

• Creater of recovery media is missing on my Satellite C850

  On my new Toshiba Satellite C850-11V it seems you no TRMCLcher.exe in the plan Program Files/Toshiba/Toshiba Recovery Media Creater. It is the application with which I should create DVDs for recovery. Very strange. The rest of the card seems OK. Probably something was wrong when unpacking the software.

  Can someone send me the TRMCLcher.exe program as a ZIP file so that I can manually copy to the card you?
  Thank you. Herman.

  Hello Herman

  In my opinion, you must reinstall the recovery image and he check once more with the factory settings.

• Updated SL500 and OS recovery Media (s)

  Hello world

  This is my first purchase of laptop and I did some research as to what long I must/need to do before messing with the system.

  Please bear with me as I have a few general questions and the search function track me not enough for all the responses.

  My OS is Vista Home Basic.

  At startup, I typed recovery leading to "Create recovery media", "Create product recovery media" and "rescue and recovery".

  I made backups of these three programs.

  To "Create the product recovery media", it has created 3-disc Start recovery disc i) and ii) product Recovery Disc 1 and 2

  For "Create recovery media", it created i) recovery and rescue boot disk

  Now, after you create the recovery of two types, it is safe to assume that I can delete the Q: Partition.

  Here are some questions that puzzled me:

  1. What is the difference between the product recovery media and the recovery media?

  If I can answer my own question, product recovery media restore the laptop to its factory as well as the 3 partitions EVEN AFTER State I've done a 'clean install' of Vista and removing all partitions. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

  I have no idea what a recovery media as product recovery media seems to do everything.

  2. what type of recovery (of the two mentioned above) is the operating system Vista pre installed inside I should decide to go back to Vista.

  My guess is the product with its OS and Lenovo recovery media drivers + utilities.

  3. should I decide to go and install W7 Pro, once versions or Lenovo official drivers (because I can not directly upgrade Home Basic to Pro), is possible to always use the product and revert to Vista Home Basic recovery media, assuming that what came as factory settings have all been removed.

  4. and finally, I'll be able to make any kind of recovery media after a fresh install of W7? (I think a definitive answer will arise come W7 launch date, but it does not hurt to ask )

  Thank you very much for reading a long and perhaps repetitive for some, post.

  I always visit the forums then I hope I'll learn new things through time.

  1. recovery of product support will include your ad OS drivers that get you with your system

  2 medial recovery allows you to enter in the rescue and recovery environment

  You can use the product recvoery support to return to Vista Home Basic, if you want to

  You cannot do any recovery media after installing windows 7, because that has not been delivered with your system

• Re: Cannot create flash drives recovery media

  I recently bought a new Toshiba NB305-N440BL and updated netboo to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Edition Premium. The Wizard "Create the recovery media", as suggested, I tried to create the recovery on two flash drives media. Flash memory were new and had never been formatted.

  What program inserted the "wizard" said that necessary to format Flash drives, but when I asked it to be in format, the program said that there was a mistake and they could not be formatted. I then formatted drives using Windows Explorer Disk Manager, reinsert the readers and received the same "...". needs to be formatted, but wouldn't format... "message. I have also received "error 040E2D-00-00000000 code."

  I have googled this error message and found two people who had the same problem with their Toshiba NET books when they attempted to create backup hardware. There are no answers to their requests for assistance. Is there another way to do back ups?

  Thank you

• N5P48UA #ABA: error creating recovery media

  I started my creation of recovery disks and did not have the correct DVD.  I stopped the process without throwing step of engraving and close the application. Now, I have the correct DVD and the custom of system I would all disks. None of the recovery disks have been created, but the system says I did. How can I tell the system to continue with the original game?

  Hi @gmercer,

  Thank you for your query.

  I take that when you tried to create your recovery media, you do not have the correct DVD and you stopped the process. Now that you have the correct DVD, you are no longer able to complete the process, because it indicates that you have already made one. Please, contact the HP support and explain your situation. They will be able to help you. Please contact HP to Contact HP Supportassistance.

• Satellite U840T - cannot create USB recovery media

  Can someone advise please - I have a new U840T Satellite with SDDS and try to create a recovery media using a USB key.

  The Toshiba 'Recovery Media Creator' inviotes I plug a USB key at least 10.4 G. So, I inserted a new USB 16G. The app clearly did not see this, even if it is recognized by the PC itself, no problem.

  When I press 'create' to load the stick, the app just says: "the process of creation for all media was cancelled" is not only wrong spelling, but completely useless.

  I do something wrong, ir is just a very poor app?

  Thank you very much...

  I tried burning the files again for discs 1 and 3, which could once again, but 2 disk has been created again successful without any problem.

  Please indicate the possible solution.

  Try to use TDK or Verbatim DVD-R. I used these empty discs to create recovery discs on several different Toshiba laptops and every time everything was fine.

  It seems crazy, but you may have problems using some some discs.
