System Disk Image recovery and system recovery discs discs

These terms are very confusing.

I had 3 HP computers to office over the past 15 years and have always comes to an ERD but my luck could escape and I'm going to need one of them.

However, I'm confused.  I thought that as HP comes with a drive D: original Image, it would be enough.

I make records of recovery or system disk Image?  Are they the same?  My HP Advisor on this computer again I do "system recovery discs!

I would really like someone explain (in novice language) which mean the above and what I need to do?

I appreciate so much people in the help forums, as I learned more from them than books I have.

Hello Twinkie3, I suggest making the game to restore HP Recovery disks.  Even if you have the recovery restore D: hard disk partition, it may be damaged or if the hard drive fails and needs to be replaced, you would not be able to access the recovery partition.

If you have to replace the hard drive, you can only insert disc 1 of the the recovery set and put the system back as it was when shipped. Without these records, you would need to try to acquire at HP for a cost to you, and after a while, they are not available.

The set of recovery disks cannot be done once and only be used to restore your particular system.

Normally, it takes 3 DVD discs but can take longer depending on the size of the restore partition.

The HP advisor don't constantly remind important you to these disk since it's a step in maintaining your system over time.

  • HP G6: Windows 8.1 to new disk image recovery

    I bought a new drive bigger and harder for my G6. I made an image of my old drive windows and I have a 8.1 windows installation disc.  I think that it is equal to a repair disc. It is in any other operating system. If I set the bios to the legacy that I can boot the disk windows 8.1 but it will not restore the image because it was made in efi mode and active legacy it says it's bios mode. The computer does not start the disk windows 8.1 in efi mode. I tested the drive in another computer and it starts. The computer will boot to a windows 7 or windows 10 drive but not the disk of 8.1. How can I do to restore that image I did?

    Rethinking the computer was in legacy mode when I made the image. I feel pretty screwed by this experience of windows 8 CV.  I had planned to upgrade to windows 10 after that some of the bugs have been developed. Now, it's out of the question.

    OK, I'll try that. I won't recommend the purchase of new laptops to anyone yet. Get a Thinkpad T series used with Windows 7. I know that you could still buy them last year. They last forever.

  • Satellite A200 - burn image HD recovery discs?

    I'm working on a Satellite A200, who does not the recovery discs and now seems to have one messed up the Vista installation.
    Before I started working on this, I created images of backup hard drives 3 partitions (C:\, TOSHIBA SYSTEM VOLUME & HDDRECOVERY) which I backed up on another computer.
    My question is, can I create these images recovery discs? The machine boots, they are saved on triple XP, Vista & W7, they were created using ShadowProtect Desktop.
    I can mount the images in each operating system...

    As far as I know this can be a problem now. Recovery media can be created when the laptop to factory settings. This means that available "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" tool and recovery image placed on the second partition.

    When you move this image of recovery elsewhere and return later, sometimes "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" cannot find files and more.

    When I bought my computer with vista as my windows operating program.                  I want to get a vista disk to repair or reinstall vista instead of the disk three gave me or just sent me my own vista disc

    Microsoft sends NO Vista DVD.

    You already have the manufacturer's recovery disks.
    Recovery disc reinstall Vista and your computer about how you bought.

    You will need to contact your computer manufacturer to see if you have a recovery Partition on your hard drive.

    This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

    Recovery discs are made from the recovery Partition, OR provided by the manufacturer, as in your case!

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Here is some general info recovery options.

    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.

    Ask them if you can also make 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

  • Problems with CS6 Master Collection (invalid checksum) disk image

    I have problems to download the trial for CS6 Master Collection for Mac OS X.

    I tried download using the Download Assistant, as a privileged environment and a non privileged user and have also tried direct download as a privileged and unprivileged. Every time that I waited until the download is complete before installation, but every time the disk image opens, denouncing a "invalid checksum".

    I tried to mount the disk image without validating the checksum, but so that I can then run the installer, the installation fails due to the absence of privileges - once again, it comes to regardsless of the privileges of the user. I also tried to delete the preferences and cache for Download Wizard files, but nothing helped.

    Can anyone confirm that the English version of CS6 collection master disk image works and can be installed without error on Mac OS X 10.7? Now, I downloaded and re-downloaded the image disk at least eight times, and while I have a fast Internet connection, it becomes tedious.

    I just downloaded the DMG on Adobe.com, using the test, and it fits very well. I was able to start the installation.

    I don't have a checksum error or other error.

    However, I found these instructions in another thread:http://forums.adobe.com/message/4370247#4370247

    If the download was completed in Adobe Download Assistant, you can temporarily turn off the feature to check the checksum.  The following steps will allow you to temporarily disable this feature:

    1. Open the disk located in Applications/Utilities utility
    2. Go into the menu of disk utility and select Preferences
    3. Deselect the option to verify checksums
    4. Try to mount your DMG file

    I would recommend turn this feature back on however once installation is complete.  Also, if you notice what's happening on the additional files it may indicate a problem with your Internet connection.

    You could try these steps and let us know if you were able to move forward.

  • 64 bit preinstalled operating system and 32-bit recovery disc?

    Hello

    I saw (somewhere) that if you buy a laptop Toshiba with a 64 bit OS, you can create your own recovery discs, and you are given a 32-bit recovery disk by Toshiba in case you want to switch.

    Is this true and if so what models does this apply to?

    Thank you.

    Hi mate,

    Yes, maybe this information is just, but I can say from my own experience on some laptops like Qosmio X 300 models are delivered with both versions. This means that on first commissioning you can choose between 32-bit and 64-bit.

    In addition, if you create the Toshiba recovery disc, it creates two different discs: one for 32 bit OS and the other for the 64 bit OS.

    You can check this in specifications detailed on the Toshiba site. Just look for the laptop you want to buy and you can see what OS is delivered. ;)

  • Replacement of the HARD disk on Equium A100-337 - installation of operating system recovery disc?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 - 337 Vista Premium. Unfortunately, the HARD drive died in it and it is out of warranty.

    I have the recovery CD and it have used before so know this works.

    I intend to put in a HARD drive replacement, but looking around, I can get a much better deal on something like maxtor/WD/seagate.
    It would be a problem for the recovery CD?

    In addition, the original disk is 60 GB - but if possible, while I replace in any case, I like to put in a bigger. What worries me is if the recovery CD is for 60 GB image pre - and then the rest of a larger HARD drive would be just wasted space? (if indeed it would even work in the first place)

    Someone else put in a brand/different size of HDD and used the successfully recovery CD? I have to admit not knowing much about how does the recovery process, pointers on that would be appreciated also.

    See you soon.

    A different size will be fine. Not sure about the different makes it well, but as far as I know, as long as it has the same interface as the original HARD disk, and then you'll be fine.

    A Yes, the recovery works on a more than 60 GB HARD drive.

    I hope this helps.

  • System Restore Win7 without success using recovery discs

    I have a Vaio VPCCW23FX under Windows 7 Home Premium. My original hard drive Vaio is dying (after a little more than 2 years). I tried to create recovery discs from my laptop, but that the process has failed. Sony support said that my recovery partition must have gotten corrupted and I need to buy the discs at home. Very well, I did. I also bought a new Western Digital 1 TB portable hard drive (same cache size and speed as the drive in the laptop, just more storage space). I WAS able to create a disc Image system to my laptop, even if I couldn't create recovery discs.

    The new hard drive installation was quick and easy and I had no problem. The process of recovery has been unsuccessful to date, however. It seems TO be going smoothly and successfully and run all 4 disks and nine copied files on the hard drive. I get to the end and it is said to remove the disk and restart the computer to complete the installation.

    As it is start I see some messages that look like this market (including the update of the register, installation of devices). Then at the bottom it says: 'The Installer applies system settings' and an error message box is displayed. It is said: "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer." The only option is to click OK, how the computer restarts.

    When the computer restarts after this error message, the same things happen but I get a new error message: "Windows cannot complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, run the Setup again. "Again, the only option is to click OK, that makes the computer to restart, which makes this error message displayed, etc.

    I can hit F8 as soon as the VAIO appears logo and a menu of Windows recovery. I can boot into safe mode, I can choose to go in recovery mode, I can even get to a command prompt and see what is on the drive.

    There is a good bit of information on the disc (about 20 GB or more, if I remember correctly). Based on the directories that are here, it SEEMS like Windows is there and should work... but it doesn't and it won't tell me why.

    I can run the Startup Repair, and he tells me that it can not detect a problem. She even said, "State the start indicates that the OS booted successfully."

    I tried to put in the System Image disc I created, but the Startup Repair and recovery system do not seem to recognize it.

    I have screenshots of the various messages and info from the command prompt. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. Again, what are the recovery discs for Windows 7 that I ordered directly from Sony, own my laptop model, and the only difference in the computer, it is that I bought a 1 TB drive to replace the dying 500 GB drive.

    Thank you in advance.

  • Failure of System Image recovery

    My dv7 3165dx notebook PC is no longer support Windows 7.  I spent six weeks researching the issue through forums and even contacted HP support by phone.  The first action I took was to back up my files using a SATA cable USB on another computer.  Then I did a system restore.  The restoration process would be to reformat the hard drive, but could never reinstall windows aterwards.  Other research suggests that order the recovery disc for my particular model would settle the matter, so I did.  After trying to boot from the recovery discs, I finally got some error codes that suggested the hard drive has been corrupted and will need to be replaced.  I had 2 it professionals to confirm this suggestion and then explained my story to someone at HP support on the phone and confirm again once I needed a new hard drive.  (corrupted HARD drive is 500 GB)

    Now I have a new herd of 650 GB drive and follow all the instructions supplied with the discs.  I turn on the laptop with the first recovery disc in.  BIOS is configured to boot from the CD/DVD.  System Image Recovery begins, asking if I want to reformat the drive and start the recovery.  The progress bar indicates the restoration of files on hard disk and makes 30% after about 40 minutes, and then a box will appear:

    "Failure of the copy of the file.  Of D:\PRELOAD\BASE19. WIM C:\RM\Image\BASE19. WIM.  Press OK to retry.

    pressing ENTER or ESC takes about 20 to 30 minutes more to get the same box again never exceed 30%.

    I have a new hard drive and HP recovery disc and still not usable laptop.  I have read also several similar topics on similar problems but you have not found a solution that works yet.  I appreciate a lot of help.

    Hello

    You are welcome.

    I've always liked to link to the site to developers for free software, but I agree that the download options are not immediately obvious.  However, as you use a Mac, there is no need for additional software - you can burn the Image file (ISO) of Windows disk as described in he following link.

  • How can I create system recovery disc for a new laptop with windows 7 Home Premium?

    I just bought my daughter a new Toshiba Satellite with Windows 7 Home Premium laptop last night. The laptop came with a Windows restore disk. How to create a set of boot from the DVD then when the system fails, or I need a new facility? I created a system repair disc and two-disc Image recovery. Is this enough to fully restore Windows 7 to the initial state of machines? (Technology at best buy assured me that it was nothing that I was able to do and that they would do for me for $70.00.)

    In short: my Dell came with a system recovery disk which was very convenient. I would like to reproduce this convenience with Windows 7. Any help appreciated.

    You will need to follow the manufacturers directions to create the recovery media. Looks like you've done that, but Toshiba could only say with certainty. I recommend that you contact their customer service.

    Hello:

    Most of the dc5800 comes with Windows Vista Business or Vista Business downgraded to XP Pro, like yours, so HP has never had recovery disc for the dc5800 W7.

    Demand for 64-bit because otherwise you will get 32 bits.

    1-800-334-5144

    If they do not, you can still get a set of this provider not HP - looks like only 32-bit however.
