• Satellite C55 - A - 1 K 6 - Partition which is Important for the recovery of Toshiba?

  My laptop is Satellite C55 - A - 1 K 6

  In the past, I have deleted Toshiba System Recovery Partition by mistake when I install the new OS for my laptop so I sent my laptop to Toshiba Service and they recreate standard scores and send back me my laptop.

  I need to ask this question to you now;

  When I opened the disk management in the computer management, I see two partition named Recovery. One of them is the beginning of the disc and it is 1 GB, another 11FR and at the and of the disc. What is the Toshiba system recovery?

  On the other hand I just created 3 * 4, 5 GB Toshiba System Recovery DVD by Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. Instead of I have those DVD am I still need the recovery Partition for recovery of my laptop in the future?

  Now, if I delete all the partitions on the hard drive now, can I still use Toshiba Recovery with these 3 * 4, 5 GB DVD?

  Thank you...

  Original recovery image contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, tools specific to Toshiba and utility and sure some additional software so it may not be only 1 GB. 11 GB partition is for the recovery image.

  In general you don't need it more. With the help of your created recovery DVD you will be able to install the original recovery image whenever you want. In case that the HARD drive will be effective and exchanged with a new one, you can use these discs to install the original recovery image.

  Many people do not read manuals s and does not create a recovery media. After a few experiences, they are surprised why HARD recovery disk image installation doesn't work anymore.

  I hope that some other Toshiba laptop owners will read this so here are original recovery Toshiba recall info:

  Sorry, but if your device is disabled and you have no backup, then you won't be able to save the data on the device:

  You should back up your device regularly to iCloud or import your photos to an application on your computer. Otherwise, you will be risking losing those photos. If your device has been lost, stolen, or crushed by your car, you'd be in the same situation. Really sorry for your photos.

  When I try to back up my PC, I get "files for the recovery diskette could not be created" how to fix this?

  Hello

  This problem can occur because ASR is not supported in Windows XP Home Edition. However, users of Windows XP Home Edition can access the Recovery Wizard if they install the Ntbackup program in the Windows XP Home Edition CD-ROM Valueadd folder.

• XP pro sp3 run asr, but didn't start; files for the recovery diskette could not be created

  I had previously asr has been successfully run on the same configuration but have decided to update the recovery data. I tried to restart the asr by clicking Start, all programs, accessories, system, backup tools. The Backup Wizard appears and I clicked on Advanced Mode. Then followed the backup utility page, I clicked on the ASR Wizard. The next page has been the preparation of Recovery Wizard, I clicked next and was presented with the option of backup destination and, after finishing the backup destination, I clicked Next. My page was last option; End of the ASR Wizard, I clicked Finish. Backup went into his usual preamble but almost instantly a warning box came up with the message "files for the recovery diskette can not be created." I am running xp pro sp3 as I had been for the creation of the previously successful GDR.

  I also tried using the Backup Wizard and I clicked on backup all information on this computer (this option automatically provides ASR) and followed the instructions of the wizard through to the end and the failure has been the same.

  I found a solution to my problem of ASR. If I was not able to create an asr backup, I was still able to run Ntbackup. I've saved my OS drive then ran repair with the XP Professional installation cd. Backup ASR works now.

  OK, I had to reinstall all them that updates the Knowledge Base Microsoft and also all the Service Packs. One or two of the plug-and-play applications were a bit annoying, but be as I have all the installation cd, other than being tedious, have all been re-installed and the system is now as good as new.

• Installed Windows on the bad disk partition (C :) and meant for the recovery disc (e :)))

  Hello world

  My question is that I installed windows vista on the wrong partition. When I tried to do a re-install for partition recovery (e), I saw that the drive (C :) local was still installed with my last error when I first installed it on drive C: (OS) that is full. I didn't want to do, that I was going for the recovery disk (E :).

  If I re - install windows on the recovery disk now, he will have to complete partitions. I'm just completely start over as if I first had an empty space to install an OS right the first time around when choosing the right partition.

  It is on a latitude D630, where the BONE was full and the Data 2 which is the recovery disk (e) has free space that should have (c).

  Any help is grateful, thank you.

  Make sure that the important data that you have on the drive is backed up.

• I would like to have the best possible experience for the games on my laptop and I want to download everything that is necessary for the performance of the games.

  I bought a new laptop which has Windows 8. I heard that Windows 8 is new, it only is not automatically provided some 'things' - forgive me for my lack of knowledge in technology. I intend to play games on my new laptop, but according to my knowledge, Windows 8 does not support things like Visual C++ and Directx 9. I am very uncertain about this subject, however. If anyone understands this as am I mean, can you please correct and/or explain more on this topic? I would like to have the best possible experience for the games on my laptop and I want to download everything that is necessary for the performance of the games.

  Original title: what's missing in Windows 8?

  Jack

  We were all new at one point, so don't worry what you know.  Win 8 is compatible with all previous OS.  It supports C++, and depends on your video card supports DIrectX 9, 10 and 11.

  The only thing that doesn't come with win 8 (and since you bought it, it may already be installed) is windows media player.

  What exactly are you trying to do, or can you give us more information for we can help you better?

• Site Recovery Manager is certified for the recovery of the database?

  Hi all

  I is currently exploring the possibility of using the Site Recovery Manager for database DR scenarios.

  Before you go more away and actually try to run some scenarios, I'd be interested if someone of you has tried to do the same thing and if you actually managed to go beyond the situation of disaster, i.e. with primary VM [stop] down, then activating the VM DR.

  Another important aspect, I would be interested is the certification: the Site Recovery Manager is certified for the recovery of the VMS running databases?

  And if so, what data is it certified by: Oracle 10/11, SQL Server 2005/2008, DB2 9.x, etc.?

  If the answers are well known to my question, please just point me to the right source by a link - that should be enough.

  Thank you

  At EMC, we use this definition (which is fairly common):

  Uniform crash means that all devices in a given consistency group are writing order in line at a point in time.  If an application can recover from an accident, such as would be seen with a power failure or any other event of failure, then the application can recover from failover.

• HP Envy 17 t: what size usb drive is necessary for the recovery of HP Envy 17 t 10 (64-bit) Windows?

  I just installed my HP Envy and wanted to set up a recovery disk.  The USB key must be less than 32gigs, but the example has not been updated for Windows 10 the instructions say.  It shows a recovery screen for a laptop of Win8 with the source of recovery like 17 concerts.   Is there a way to check the requirements for the front to accept the HP one time recovery option.  I have a new 16 GB USB key and wanted to make sure that it is large enough.

  Also do a backup image to DVD?   If so, how many DVDs?   The laptop is new and I added only Chrome and some minor programs.  My data files are always on an external hard drive.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  To be honest, I don't know what size will be that these recovery files are because they can vary from the version of Windows to another. They can vary from a model.

  In my opinion, 16 GB is probably not enough.

  DVDs are usually 6 (6x4.7 GB = about 28 GB) but this can vary from one model.

  This possibility of imbedding maybe once, there are other ways that you can save your system indefinitely.

  This is a free option included in all windows (creating system image, it's free as included in Vista from the outset).

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03544793

  However, this option requires (e.g. USB HDD) external HARD disk or DVD. It does not work with USB flash drives.

• How Long it take for the recovery disk to install?

  I have the original recovery disc for my Toshiba M55-S139 laptop. I've never used up yeserday. Well its been 17 hrs and nothing! Is this normal? When I put the cd in, it seems, to copy files, etc., so he asks that I remove the disk and press any key to start the process.

  Then it goes to a black screen. I have searched online to find a process step by step as to what I should see or at least a period of how long it might take. I think that 17 hours is too long..but I'm not the expert in computer science here! :)

  Help!

  I agree with Feliks seems the recovery process may not complete successfully.
  I think that you must repeat this procedure once more. Boot from the disc, format the HARD drive and install the new.

  Good luck

• hp blue circle on black screen, can\ ' t access the boot options for the recovery disc

  I have installed Symantec disk full encryption and encrypted hard drive. Then I restarted the pc. I get a black screen with a blue HP logo in the Center. The low right sysa message press the ESC key for startup menu, but no key is working. Each button gets a beep. If I turn the power off, then on and press the various f keys, I get different messages but still no answer from all the keys.

  Symantec sent a disc of recovery for deencrypt the drive, but I can't get the pc to load from the drive. Any thoughts?. I reset the computer twice (battery and power cord, hold the power button / stop for 30 seconds)

  I remove the hard drive and then turn on the laptop to see what answer the BIOS.

  From your description of the problem, it sounds as if you may have encrypted the whole disc rather than only the C: volume or the BIOS ROM file is damaged.

  You should be able to go beyond the HP screen to access the BIOS.

  The BIOS should give complain that it cannot find a drive with a bootable operating system.

  If this happens, and you have the recovery disk set or usb recovery media, life is good and you will need to take a look at the Symantek forum to see how to proceed with your encrypted drive.

  If it does not then, the problem is the BIOS on the system board.

  By pressing the ESC key and have the start menu appear is conditional on the BIOS being in good condition. Yours may be damaged. Try download a softpaq BIOS on another PC, extract the BIOS ROM file and put it on the root of a usb key. Put the USB key into a USB port on the laptop. Press the power button and immediately hold down the Windows key and start receiving the B key. If it works and you see an led flash, release the keys and wait. the process must load a BIOS file to replace the one damaged. This takes time, so be patient if you see a blinking led or no reaction from the laptop for a few minutes.

  Post your results here and we can take the next steps, you can take.

  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.

  Hello

  I desperately need HELP! I formatted my laptop Dell Inspiron N5110 and reinstall a copy of windows 7 after noticing several virus on my pc. But I doesn't not delete or format the Partition recovery. The recovery partition is intact. I now have to recover my pc to the factory of origin of windows settings , but I don't know if it's possible and how. I didn't know I could just use the Dell Datasafe from the beginning before formatting my pc (stupid I am). I handed a letter to the recovery partition (f) and know I can see all the files included in it. After searching for a while, some people suggesting to run the cmd following under 'Tools' dir (ED I can't find):

  Can someone help me please? I really need help with that! Can someone give me instructions what to do?
