• Compaq Presario CQ50-139wm system restore disks required

  I have a laptop Compaq Presario CQ50-139wm.  The hard drive has been damaged without repair possible and I put a new hard drive in it, but I have system restore disks.  They are no longer available for purchase.  Anyone know where I can get a set?  The original operating system is Windows Vista.

  Hello:

  I don't see that HP has them.

  It would link to the recovery media to order on the Vista 32 bit laptop driver page.

  But can call HP and ask first. Maybe you can order them by phone and they would cost less ordering them to surgeons in the computer.

  If HP does no more, you can still get this provider on the link below.

• get a system for windos xp restore disk, to fix a computer that you were never created to

  I need to create a restoration/repair disc of the system on a differnet computer so I can fix that does not work, I need to do a restore/repair disc of the system to Windows XP Home Edition. Windows has been installed on the computer when it was purchased and a restore disk has never been. I can solve all the problems with the computer if I can get it just to start, a young user has bad corupted serval files including the firewall. I just need to be able to run windows, fix the files and create a floppy disk to restore incase it happens again.

  It lacks a small detail...

  What happens when you try to start (next to her does not start).

  You can make a bootable CD of XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console and according to what is the symptom of the boot, maybe fix it with that.

  I am confused and do not understand why Microsoft support engineers seem unable to display instructions to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console and refer instead to make an ASR disk on a system that will not boot (be able to start seems to be imperative to ensure that the referenced article).  Maybe someone will explain to me how it is supposed to work.

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  Here's how to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console:

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

• Restore disk will not work need a windows copy XP where can I find one?

  My hardrive broken so I am new and my restore disk does not work where can I get a version of windows to put it on a floppy disk and use it on my computer OSless.

  XP has disappeared.

  your best bet is to work with the manufacturer of your laptop, maybe they xp on their shelves.

  also, the restore disks may require specialty measures to run for them to be activated.

  so for the two cases above, visit your computers home site and look for the model number of your laptop for the faq on the help of restore disks / recovery discs / factory restore.

  by the way, how broken is the old hard drive?

  He must have a hidden section on it with all the preserved original software which can be used to restore the hard disk.

  but this section could also be copied into the new HDD as well, according to which 'broke' implies.

  by the way, is that the technician who replaced your hard drive take a look at the restore disks too?

  Here are the General information relating to the recovery.

  Contact Sony for the exact details.

  How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• HP OEM Vista restore disks work after installing Windows 7 RC?

  The title of the post pretty much everything says. I would like to try the Windows 7 RC, but I also wish I could go back to Vista, at some point. It seemed that the restore disks did not have a complete reinstall the last time (it resets windows pretty quickly). If I load Windows 7 RC, I'll be able to use my restore disks from HP to postpone Vista on my system?

  Thank you

  Pete

  If your specific working set of restore disks really depends on if they were created successfully; However, a set of disks of restoration work should certainly work. At least with my CL Pavillion DV-4-1287, Recovery Manager also continued to work after an upgrade to Windows 7, then a reinstallation via clean install without shaped.  Initially, he works with none of the additional steps, in the second, I just need to copy the application on of c:windows.old\program files (x 86) \sminst.  Unless you have reason to do so, while a clean install is the best route, I wouldn't do a format with a clean install, since all your drivers are stored in the Windows.old folder and (dependent on model) the swsetup folder.  Windows 7 can not find the drivers for all devices (five in my case) but on my machine all drivers Vista has of worked - just needed to point the manual driver update function to the appropriate folded equal windows.old or swsetup. BTW, while drivers Vista came with my laptop running Windows 7, the same is not true for some recent updates on the website.

  Oh, one last thing would be to update the BIOS before installing Windows 7 from the Flash of the bios Setup program is not yet certified for Windows 7 (no surprise since it's always a BONE development)...

• Satellite L300 - Question about restore disks

  Hello, woner if anyone can offer some advice, I recently had my laptop repaired due to a fall.

  However, I thought the operating system needs to install. Confused as performed here, but instead to send back will do it myself.
  I am running Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium, or it is a case of purchase of these discs and their execution, no idea about computers, don't know if there is another way. I did creat restore disks, but using them had constantly message saying waiting for the drive to become available, now it says only: insert installation discs.

  Any advice appreciated help.

  Hi tarajanes,

  To be honest I really don't have a clue what you mean exactly because your ad is not very clear.

  Are you using the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore windows? If so, you will need to insert this disk and boot of it. Then follow the instructions on the screen.

  In case you get an error message: what message you get exactly?

• Re: Satellite L300 - 18 d - how can I get a Vista restore disk?

  Hello world

  My laptop (Satellite L300 - 18 d) has been seriously infected by viruses, all corrupt. I need to resinstall Vista but do not have the restore disc. After searching around, I managd to download a restore disk of some sites, but when I used this disc, it gave me an error code which meant the product key was wrong. I used the product key from the bottom of the laptop (I trust this is an OEM). So I guess I need a restore disk that works with my OEM product key.

  How can I get the restore disc that will work with my OEM license?

  Also, I tried to install XP on my laptop, but it kept giving me a message saying that it could not detect the hard drive, there is nothing wrong with the hard drive, I tested it on another laptop. Is there an any obstacle o install XP on this laptop that came with Vista of origin. Is there a security Messure somewhere that I collapsed to install XP?

  Thanks in advance

• Question about Tecra M4 system restore disks

  I am looking to buy a Tecra M4. Toshiba provide a "correct" restoration method I have no problems with restore disks, but have had problems with windows restore sometimes. They provide a factory restore disc or I have to look at the creation of a Ghost disk.

  I need to know just if I can start lookging for a good approx. ghosting before buying.

  Thanks for any help in advance.

  Hi Robert,.

  Portable Toshiba computers are sold with an OEM "bundle" of the software. This means that you will receive either a CD/DVD that contains an image that can be restored to the full version of the software, or a file preloaded on your laptop from which you can create your own drive can be restored.

  This disk can only be used to completely restore your system to its original factory condition, and you cannot use it to selectively restore files or individual components.

  You can also receive a tools and Utilities CD/DVD that contains specific Toshiba provided to public services.

  If you want to create your own backup copy of your data/system files, then you will need to invest in one of the packages commercial (I use Acronis True Image myself) as well as an appropriate external environment (I use a USB hard drive).

• Satellite L350-235 a restore disk runs on a brand new HARD drive?

  Hello

  My hard drive is dead (completely) 3 days out of warranty.
  Recovery discs has not yet loaded, all I had was a black screen and a mouse pointer.

  So I bought a new hard drive. Problem I have now is how to install Windows on a new drive.
  What should I get Toshiba?

  I obviously paid for Windows Vista, when I bought the laptop, so I'm a little confused on what to do next.
  A restore disk will work on a whole new drive?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Didn t drive recovery does not happen with the laptop because you had an option to create one using the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator.

  You now have this disc which can be ordered here:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  Boot from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen.
  The recovery disk works also with the new HARD drive!

• restore disks

  I have two identical HP computers (Pavilion d4890y).  We have a failed hard drive.  Whatever the restore disks I use to rebuild the new hard drive?  They are not labelled differently.

  Here are the specifications and configurable options for your desktop HP Pavilion d4890y. If ordered them in the same way, then no descendants using a set of HP recovery disk. If they were ordered with different configurations, there may be issues when you use the wrong set of HP Recovery Disc. You can compare the recovery discs to see if they are same... simply display the disks in your computer and compare this file counts and space used on each drive.

• T420 restore disks

  Had a computer with a hard drive dead, where the only way I could create some restore disks was in safe mode and running the EXE file directly from the drive Q. He created the startup disk and diskettes 3.

  I put in a new hard drive and when I try to launch the boot drive, it launches the Windows recovery environment and does not give me the ability to run Startup Repair on a Windows installation (which is not found on the new hard drive, or of the course) or restore a backup. If I chose to restore a backup, he found nothing.

  I thought that booting from the boot floppy took me through a process similar to the one where you launch ThinkVantage when booting from the hard drive OEM. What Miss me?

  Use the bootdisk, I created other the T420 and media disks, I created from the T420 failed. Restored by default.
