System recovery disks do not work.

I have a HP G62 339WM Notebook PC with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  I bought by mail, system recovery discs and they do not work.   And my HP Support Assistant displays "an error has occurred" and end not updates.

The Troubleshooting Guide for the recovery started from CD or DVD says: "update the firmware of the drive. This is especially true if the disks were received from HP customer service by mail. The firmware of a DVD player (the pilot) isn't able to recognize the support of recovery disk which was created using a newer DVD manufacturing process. Download and install updates on the firmware of the DVD available at HP that corresponds to the type of DVD drive on your computer. »

How do I update the firmware of the player when my HP Support Assistant would conduct no updates.  I downloaded the latest Hp Support Assistant and he always always says "an error has occurred."

My laptop model has no updates from HP.

As new as your laptop is I doubt you need a firmware update for the CD/DVD drive.

Could you give a little more detail also the recovery disks do not work. For example you get an error, or is the laptop just not boot from them and goes directly into Windows?

Have you tried to put the first disc in the drive, shut down the laptop, wait a minute or two and turn on the laptop, start typing the ESCAPE key to get the menu. Should be an option of F9 to select the boot device. Select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.

    Hello

    What is the installation using another CD; That is to say the Microsoft Windows XP disk?
    Have you tried that?

    In my opinion, this would help to pinpoint the problem
    The error message can be linked to different issues; I mean the HARD drive or a single partition problem could also be possible.

    Try to format the drive HARD whole again. Delete all partitions from the HARD drive and check if you can proceed with the installation.

    But if you will not be able to install the OS by using the recovery disk and other disks then a question must relate to a part of the material. (possibly HDD)

  • HP S3120N. I replaced the motherboard and the power, now the recovery disks do not work.

    I'm not so happy owner of a HP Pavilion S3120N. I am running windows vista home edition. The motherboard went out so I replaced it with a Zotac GeForce 8200 - ITX Wifi series. Now the computer says it is noa a hp solution valid, and the recovery disks do not work. is there a way to fix this without buying a new operating system?

    Yes, return the Zotac motherboard and get an OEM HP/Compaq M2NC51-AR / HematiteXL-GL8E motherboard. I know that's not the answer you want to hear, but the recovery discs are locked to a specific set of HP/Compaq machines with specific HP OEM motherboards. Apart from this, you will need to buy a new OS.

  • Problem of Pavilion dv67023tx, drive damaged, recovery system recovery cd does not work

    Hi all! I really need help

    I bought my computer hp laptop Pavilion dv67023tx July 2012.  When I bought it, they gave me a set of recovery disks. January 2013, I did a system restore. It was fine then.

    Later, after some software hp update my cd player began to eject automatically. The light of the hp on the lid logo disappeared also. My audio jack went wrong from the beginning. So for all these problems together, I took it to the service center, and as it was in warranty period, they sent to hp. 3 months later I have my laptop back, I was informed that hp has changed the hard drive, motherboard, cover, screen.

    There is a month Itried to install some of my software I used earlier, but they were not working. If I had no other way than a system recovery using this link

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01867418

    Then the main problem occurred. I couldn't do a system recovery from disk on my laptop. Then when I tried to do the recovery disks and he says, the system recovery disks do not support this computer. You are not able to restore this system with these discs.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01868346

    This link said, maybe its because hp has changed the motherboard.

    Now what should I do? I need a factory. But recovery in my laptop drive does not work, my recovery disks do not work. Please help me out of this. Or give me email ID so I can contact HP directly with problems, I do not find anything.

    Others suggesting me to install a pirated Windows 7, I don't want it. I had a real windows 7 pre installed, why should I?

    I'm sorry but I can't help you with recovery disks not working is not on your computer, but I don't have an alternative. If you can still read the 25 characters on the COA affixed Microsoft Windows product key at the bottom of the computer, you can install Windows 7 Home Premium using this key. Please see "how to install Windows 7 without the disc" to get instructions on how to download Windows 7 SP1, create the installation media and install Windows 7 SP1 by using the 25 digit product key from the COA Microsoft on your computer.

  • Satellite C670D - 11K - Toshiba recovery disks does not work

    I tried to recover the Satellite C670D - 11K using new factory system recovery disks provided by Toshiba. Both drives do their thing until the end when I get these messages:

    Files\mcafee\virusscan/dat\000.0\avvscan.dot c/program Error (error = 1117)

    When I turn on the laptop I get message "boot mgr is missing." I tried the disc of recovery a couple of times since and things don't get any better. In fact I just get a black screen with cursor after

    Suggestions this is appreciated please? I was thinking of buying the recovery disks would be a solution simple but should I give in and go to a professional now?

    Thanks, Paul

    I assume you are using recovery discs that you created using Toshiba recovery disc creator tool, right?
    It seems silly now, but something went wrong and I m afraid recovery disks are now useless. It turns out that you can't change anything or force the cell to the recovery image installs successfully.

    The only thing you can try is - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD4103KB0000R01.htm
    I don't think this will help, but you can test it in any case.

    Now, you have two options:
    -for the restore disc original order from Toshiba
    -install the clean version of the OS by using the Microsoft installation disc

  • Satellite C650 - error reading disk and the recovery disk does not work

    Hello

    I have a toshiba Satellite C650, who has recently developed with a disc read error. I want to access the command prompt to try some possible solutions I've read on the internet.

    I made a Windows 7 recovery disk using my other acer laptop which has also installed Windows 7 64-bit. When I use the recovery disk and it loaded the files etc it evokes just a black screen and the cursor.

    Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?
    I tried to start my computer acer laptop from the recovery disk and it worked fine.

    As is - this does anyone have suggestions as to why I get the message "disk read error - press ctrl, alt and delete to restart?

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to offer the exact diagnosis, but of course, there must be a problem with the HARD drive. Can you get a second one for test purposes and exchange it. Just to be sure if the HDD is troublemaker.

    But there is something else:
    > I made a Windows 7 recovery disk using my other computer acer laptop...
    Sorry, but I don t understand this. Can you please explain what you did exactly?

    Sorry for my question but what you want to do exactly?
    You want to retrieve the laptop using the recovery disk or you want to create a recovery disk?

    The Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator creates the recovery disk using files in HARD disk recovery file that is placed on the second partition.

    If you want to recover the laptop, then you simply boot from the recovery disc.

  • Why the recovery disks do not work?

    Hi friends:

    My laptop is HP HDX18. He has broken several days so I had to send it to a repair station. I took my laptop station repair for a week. Engineers told me that some material had been changed, such as motherboard, LCD display, but also outer shell. I checked it and it worked fine.

    Before my phone was broken, I did a system recovery discs and they worked well.

    Now I want to restore the system to the initial setting at the factory by the recovery diskettes, BUT! It alert with the words ' this product does not support system recovery!

    Could you please tell me why not recovery discs work? and how to fix this?

    the devices that were replaced are:

    audio device

    graphics chip

    Chipset

    You can go back to that of the repair station and ask for drivers, they must provide you with the pilots because they are the only one who knows what motherboard has been installed.

    your recovery discs no longer work while you do a clean install of your operating system.

    1: turn on the computer, and then insert the first recovery disc in the drive.

    2: Press and hold the power button to turn off the computer.

    3: disconnect all cables and devices such as readers of personal media, USB drives, printers and faxes.

    4: turn on the computer.

    5: immediately, press the ESC key several times, once per second, until a Menu start or Select boot device menu opens.

    6: selections that you do vary slightly depending on the type of menu that appears on your screen:

    If a menu select Boot Device displays, upward or down arrow to select the CD/DVD drive and then press ENTER to continue.

    If a Boot Menu appears, press F9 to open "Boot Menu", or "Boot Device Options '. The top or down arrow to select the CD/DVD drive. And then press ENTER.

    7: a window may appear and invite you to choose to run Recovery Manager from the drive hard or for the inserted disc. If this window appears, select program to disk , and then click Next .

    Hi, Nick:

    Unfortunately, I don't have any experience in troubleshooting these special software installations.

    We should expect to download and install.

    If they are not, I have no tricks up my sleeve for you to try.

    I recommend starting a new thread describing your questions with this software and hope that someone else in the support forum can help you with these items.

    See you soon,.
