System Image backup. Recorded TV missing after restoration

I have the following system; Win 7 Pro 64-bit SP1; NVIDIA GTX-260; 2 tuner cards Hauppauge WinTV HVR-2250; CPU Intel Q9550 with 4 GB of memory. The anti-virus software is Microsoft Security Essentials. It is a very clear system of vanilla for the MediaCenter. No other application.

I had a HD failure and installed a new HD, even make and size than that of old. I booted from my Windows system repair disc and ran the restore of the System Image. After it has been completed, I started the system of the HD and everything seemed OK. All the photos, music and videos stored under my username were there.

However the recorded TV stored under the Public user ID was absent. Anyone have any ideas? The system image backup has no setting to include or exclude files or directories.

Thank you

  • Windows 7 backup system Image - 0x8078012D error Code - fails to complete system image backup?

    I seem to have a problem with the Windows backup when a scheduled backup image on a hard drive external fails to finish, although she worked successfully before many times.  Backup Windows reports an error code of 0x8078012D.

    I ran the tool of error checking on the external hard drive with running repair options, but no problem discovered.  The external disk drive seems ok because I use a Norton program to back up data on the same drive with no problems.  Also Windows backup will happily make a 'non-system image' backup on the external drive.

    But it is not an image of the system stand alone, or as an add on the a normal backup.

    Any advice?

    Thank you

    After many tests on the solutions listed here, I found a way to fix my problem. I had continually failure is to say the system could not create a snapshot or that my drive has been a failure. It seems, with Windows 7, you must configure options that are not obvious to the users.

    1. go to control panel/system/System Protection and select your C: drive.

    2. Select "set up" and make sure "Restore system settings and previous versions of files" is on.

    3. the Max use value at least 2%

    4. apply

    5. Select your key USB you will use for backup and configure it again to the protection and the whole file size of at least 18%.

    6. apply

    7. in the control panel go to administrative tools, open Services.

    8 scroll down until Windows backup and make sure it is set to manual and not started.

    9. highlight Volume Shadow and make sure it is also set to manual and not started.

    10 10 aller go to control panel, select backup and restore.

    11. click on "Change settings", and then select the drive you will support up to.

  • Windows7 System Image backup

    I just want to know what type of device, I should use to make a system image backup.  My computer is for home use only (I am retired and use it for email, research and banking).    I have a 146 GB hd with 103 GB free.  Know me I use 43 GB of space for everything, right?   I made the mistake to go to Best Buy, I was told to get an external hard drive 500 GB.  I would use a flashdrive if possible and I thought a 128 GB should do OR the old way of burning on DVD mode, I need to know what I have to reformat to NTFS DVD (each first) before you can begin the backup? and who is the best to get.  Best Buy was not helpful at all, no one on the floor could answer my questions, stood in line for 45 minutes and that's when I said to buy a 500 GB HD.

    Thanks to all those who can help you.

    Dear Frederik

    Thank you for taking the time and address my concerns.  However, I have just one more question.  Why would I need an external hard drive 500 GB, the one I have is 146 GB with 103 GB free. I would only use a lot of space in what remains of my life (72).   Just use my PC at home to society and personal things.

    A 500 GB drive comes in handy for several reasons:

    • You can store several images on it, for example before leaving for the upgrade of Windows 10 (if that's what you have in mind) and after the upgrade. You would hold the image of Windows 7 a few months in case you want to go back. Note that Windows (as opposed to third-party tools), it is difficult for you to store two different images and separating them.
    • You must use the disk for your regular data backups. If you are not in the habit of saving your data regularly so it's a great time!

    Also note that an image not tested backup is pretty useless, as it is an untested backup.

    After creating an image system two days ago, now when I try to make a new image, I get a window that says "a system image backup is in progress. Please wait while it finishes. "How can I stop this and create a new backup?

    When you stop it, you have to allow him to get out of the backup and it takes almost as much time to do this, as did the backup. Did you turn the computer off before you have finished cancelling the backup? If you can cancel the image once again, do it. Then wait it ends to cancel it. Restart the computer after you're done.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

    Personally, I have not heard of specific issues with this WD HARD drive. I Googled it and found some non-specific stuff.

    However, to answer your question: in my view, there is no problem with the 1 TB external harddrive to adapt the SSD from below 500 GB. Therefore larger than GB 463, less than 500 GB, 1 TB, it should fit without problems. There is no problem for cloning SSD and HARD drive imaging (the only problem is that it might be a bit slower, but no problem to do so).

  • Cannot restore the system image backup in Windows 7

    Hello

    Im trying to use the recovery process of Win7 system standard Image for the first time and its does not work.  I'm recovering the image on my hard C primary, internal to the system drive.  I backed up correctly a Win7 system on an external hard drive image.  To restore I connect in the Control Panel on my system (still ongoing) and select the advanced option to retrieve my disc image.  The process stops then the pc and it restarts automatically.  Then he finished "Windows loading files...". "Then I select my keyboard for data entry, click ok.   Then the process correctly detects and automatically selects my last image of backup on the external drive system.    The next step begins the problem.

    The option 'delete existing partitions to reformat the drive... '. "is grayed out and inaccessible.  The only other option is: "install the drivers for the drives, you are restoing to... could solve the problem."  Also, "insert media for the device and click OK to install the drivers." I have a new HP Pavilion Desktop with Wn7-64 bit and HP has its own recovery on C partition and there is also another unknown partition (to me) it.  I was provided the only brackets installtion / have the HP recovery disk and the recovery of Win7 boot floppies that I burned after buying oringal.  Therefore, I select the button Install Drivers with no media of installtion and I see the Windows/System32/drivers folder. I can only select one driver at a time, I tried what I thought were the pilots of C - IE disk.sys, partmgr.sys, snapman.sys and tdrpm.sys and all of them return the error msg "specific location contains no information about your hardware."  I also tried to use the two recovery discs that I burned, but they resulted in a similarly generic error message.

    Drive C is very well so I am at a huge loss as to what the standard restore process of the operationg system image is looking for and why missing drivers for drive C?  Can someone please explain what this process needs so I can restore the system image?

    Thank you, roggsf

    FYI... I was able to recover my Win7 System Image by using the external backup and the ERD of Win7.  I am now more confident that backups of the system can be invoked in the event of a disaster.

    The process was/is still a bit confusing because it faced the same problems with the possibility of "remove existing divides to reformat the drive" grayed out and inaccessible.  And the other option: "install the drivers for the drives, you are restoing to... could solve the problem" is still a mystery to me.  However, using the repair disk, I was able to bypass the need to use one of these two options, click Next, and start and finish the process of recovering successfully.

    I hope that someone will be examine and solve problems with recovery only the Panel since it is the recommended approach (to a working system).  I'm a happy computeree once more.  Thanks for the suggestion.

  • updates to Windows 8 missing after restoring the backup

    After the restoration of a drive under windows 8 from one backup windows, all my updates disappeared and updates history

    and white poster installed updates. Fix update being used, but no use.

    Are updates installed without the package leaflet or they lack and how does it work

    using the backup disk image?

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.

    Although this type of backup includes your personal files, we recommend that you back up your files regularly using Windows backup so that you can restore files and folders according to individual needs. When you configure a scheduled backup, you can choose if you want to include a system image. This system image only includes the drives required for Windows to run. You can manually create a system image if you want to include additional data drives.

    Important: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Thank you.

    Hi CherylLyme,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it's a great place to find answers.

    You have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I understand that you did an image backup, and while he was almost done you received the error (0 x 80070003).  Here is a link to a response from Microsoft to help you. Windows backup error 0 x 80070003 (One answer per Vinod N)

    I'm not sure if you would be able to leave and get back on disc 99, because once you have repaired, it will be changed from when you first ran the backup.  The disc that you used only were not read, accessible writing, so you wouldn't be able to reuse them.  You can see that an external hard drive would be a more economical way to make your backups. The data must be in one place and easier to store.  If you decide to use a USB key, so do not more then the 32 GB and won't Windows 8 on it.

    You can probably buy an external drive for on the cost of the replacement of disks.  Here is a link to the HP Shopping external storage , but you can buy one at several places, Office Depot, Staples, Wal-Mart and computer shops are few.  I hope this helps.

  • System Image backup

    I'll do a restore of the System Image on the Laptop Inspiron 3721 (Windows 7, i5 processor) to my parents next week. I've done system in 2013 Image discs and they have not been updated since they got the computer.

    The reason for the restoration of the Image of the system, is that they had the Lasaoren Yontoo virus and on their computer. I thought that I had managed to get rid of two of them and the computer ran fine until a couple of days. Now Chrome cannot be opened, a phone convo with my mother, IE does not work as it should and she is unable to access his e-mail.

    Windows still works on the computer (even though I really think it can also be infected). The restoration of the Image of the system completely replace the current operating system settings? In other words, is it completely erasing discs all updates Windows or the changes since 2013 or should I uninstall Windows and start over with the system repair disc - Windows 7, 64-bit disk I did in 2013, when I did the Image of the disk system?

    I prefer clearly, simply use the disks of the System Image as this can be done from the Control Panel, but I need to know if there is possibility to leave behind parts of Windows that may or may not be infected if I use this method alone.

    Thanks for any idea!

    Incorrect answer.  You must start the computer from the Win7 system repair disc

  • Partition missing after restoring from Time Machine

    Hello world

    I use an iMac 27-inch mid-2010 and have a WD1230 external 2 TB disk attached to it. I partitioned the external hard drive to allocate 1 TB as a Time Machine backup repository and the other 1 to to put in music, movies and images files to save space on my system aging 1 TB drive.

    Good thing I put up this way because one day my system comes to refuse to start. I went in the mode utility and used the Time Machine restore feature to help me get back on my feet. After a restoration of 18 hours, the system is now purrs with all files and settings affected. Bravo for the process of Time Machine!

    However, this is the number I noticed during the restoration, formatted system partition on my external drive labeled "STORAGE" which contained my music and movies. I know that the files are there but I need to know how to access these files again as the STORAGE drive is so more appear in the Finder. I did a scan Disk Utility on the hard drive external with no luck either. Can anyone who has gone through this similar situation help out me? Thank you very much in advance!

    Restore using Time Machine to copy a game on the disc that you point to backup. It performs no operations on any drive or partition other than the one to which it is to copy the files. If Time Machine, neither utility restore formatted or partitioned external hard drive (unless it is more what you're saying.)

    It may be possible to recover lost files from this drive using a disk utility such as restore data of Prosoft. As a former tech, it's my go to software. There is no guarantee that it will work. Dril drivel is another recovery program people I know recommend but I never used it.
