• What is the size of your recovery Partition?

  Hi all

  I am running with active FileVault 10.9.5 (mid 2014 retina MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz, 16 GB RAM, stock Apple SSD). At one point, I had a 650 MB recovery Partition on my internal SSD (I'm sure it was a previous iteration of 10.9). At one point, he went to 1.03 GB. Was - it due to an update or maybe something wrong? So I would like to know what size your RP is if you run 10.9.5.

  Also, I have several Carbon Copy Cloner backup on external hard drives; We started as a SuperDuper! backup and it has a 1.30 GB RP (exactly 2 x the size of a RP 650; a coincidence?). Another also began as a backup of the SD was changed to a backup of the CCC and has a PR of 650 MB. Another was created from the beginning using the CCC and its creator RP; its size is 784,2 MB. So, I want to see if one is 'correct' or if it is normal to have different sizes of RP.

  To find the size of your RP, go to utilities > system information > material > SATA/SATA Express and look down where it says "Recovery HD."

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I recently partitioned the main C: drive in two, provide a separate drive from the system and data.

  Since I did it, I continually won warnings that I am running out of disk space on D:, the recovery partition - note, I didn't touch this partition at all!

  The laptop is a G6 Pavilion, nuber product C1Y87EA #ABU.

  The recovery disk is 20.1 GB with 32 MB free; I'm sure that's exactly what it has been for the past 2 years.

  Can someone confirm the size of the recovery disk in case there is a problem with it.

  'No space' warnings flash now upward at a rate of several times per hour.

  If the size of the partition is OK, I can verify it? And someone has ideas how the stop messages!

  Any help, greatly appreciated.

  Thanks for any help. John

  There is no need to increase the size of the HP recovery Partition. In fact, this can lead to make non-functional... HP recovery Partition leaving you without the ability to create your recovery HP Recovery Media options or access the HP Recovery Manager or "F11".

• Create the recovery Partition D on DVD - HP Pavilion 6620f

  I just replaced the original, slowly due to lack of 1 TB of internal hard drive that came with this PC with a Western Digital, which is 300 GB. When you restore the backup of the original image, there was not enough space to restore the recovery Partition D. PC operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium SP1.

  Someone told me to put the score on a DVD "bootable" in case of future need. 2 questions:

  1. What is the solution?
  2. If so, can someone tell me how to do? Or direct me to a place to learn?

  I'm NOT a technical person found thing in replacement of entire disk completely intimidating despite all the learning that I had! That's why I don't know what to do now - or if it's feasible even for a "non-techie".

  Any suggestions most appreciated! Thank you.

  Linda

  lindairene,

  Your correct. The DVD will be re - create the entire original scores in C and D on a hard drive.

  (1) the hard disk (in GB) must be the same size or larger

  (2) search the original hardware configuration. You have not changed the hardware cards.

• Equium won't start - how to access the recovery partition?

  Hi, my sister has a 2008 Equium A200-1V0 with Vista 32-bit, that no longer starts (probably due to damage of rootkit virus). It loads the BIOS but then goes to black screen with blinking cursor.

  F8 does not work.
  F2 goes to Phoenix TrustedCore Setup utility. The Toshiba hard drive and a CD-ROM drive are listed in hand and start in the right order.

  Using F12 I can get it to boot from a Win7 64 bit repair disc that I burned using my laptop.

  However, it does not recognize the operating system or any image or restore points (because it is 64-bit) but he will be responsible for command prompt.

  To * guest *, I can launch Notepad and when I click on file / open and double click on computer it shows 4 Hard drives as follows:
  Local disc (c :))
  Data (d :)) 42 GB free of 54.5 GB
  WinRE (e :)) 1.11 GB free of 1.46 GB)
  Boot (x :)) 29.0 MB of free space of 31.5 MB (which is used by the repair disk)

  So the C: drive is listed, but without ability.

  * CHKDSK *.
  CHKDSK c: /r and press return

  «The type of the file system is NTFS.»
  Unable to determine the status and version of the volume. CHKDSK is abandoned.
  Cannot transfer messages saved in the journal of the events with the 50 State.

  * Run TESTDISK *.

  Analysis:
  Size of the partition start end in sectors
  1 P Windows RE (store) 0 32 33 191 89 26 3072000
  2 * HPFS - NTFS 191 89 27 7477 118 1 117051392
  3 P HPFS - NTFS 7477 118 2 14592 190 62 114307072 (data)

  * = Primary bootable
  When you perform a quick search, then P - list of files, the second partition it reports:
  "Cannot open the file system. Filesystem seems damaged. »

  So what I want to do is boot to Windows restore to drive E.

  My question is for Toshiba experts: If F8 does not work how to use the recovery partition?

  Laptop is:

  > THIS ISN'T MICROSOFT, TOSHIBA, AND GOOD PRODUCT DESIGN.
  I really put t know that should do better than to place the Microsoft sticker at the bottom.
  This product key and sticker on it's just proof that you purchased the machine with an operating system preinstalled and legal active OS version. This key belongs to original OS (recovery image) that you got with your laptop and it is not a kind of universal key that you can use for the activation of the operating system if you have made the decision to install the clean version of the OS.

  In General, this key is totally useless. While your computer you've got legal copy and this version, that you can install so often desired. It must not be enabled.
  > So my question still remains: can I recover my Toshiba laptop using this restore partition?
  If you want to recover using the Toshiba recovery image response is not. Cannot start HARD drive recovery facility.
  > Even with a dvd of Windows Vista is genuine, I can't reload the OS
  In my opinion you need make the clean OS installation using the clean installation or order original Toshiba Recovery disk on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx disc and install original (already active) recovery image.

• Save the "recovery partition".

  OK, I write in here as laptop has Vista on it right now, but I want to get rid and move to 7, however before I I want to save the "recovery partition" just in case where for some reason, I want to reset it to factory default.
  Now restart on Vista and using various boot disks I see I have 3 left
  * WinRE (f :)) 1.4 GB)
  * Vista (c :)) 116.2 GB)
  * Data (d :)) 115.1 GB)
  All NTFS incidentally.

  I guess I should save F disc as it is labeled WinRE and there is 3 files, these being 'archive_db' which has a file in there called 'arcdir', 2nd folder called 'sources' and there is a file called 'boot.win' and it is 203MB in size, more we also have the usual System Volume Information folder and finally in the root of the drive F We have a file called boot.sdi file, it is drive F.

  Also, I guess I have to back up a D drive folder as this file is called "HDDRecovery" here, you have 3 files at the root level that are called 'HDDRecovery.tag/ReadMe.html and Toshiba.jpg' and 3 additional folders called "ODDFiles/OriSetenv/swing".

  What I want to do is to save EVERYTHING that is necessary for each DVD or external drive, including the partition information then erase the entire disc or all scores, then start to put Win7, saying I want to make my own kind of recovery partition in an ideal world using option F8 to bring up some sort of option menu reinstall 7 or otherwise I'll just take a picture and then hide this partition of Nosy gits.

  So any advice is more then welcome and if you need more info from me only.

  * APE1 *.

  Hello

  I fear that save only partitions will not help you m.

  The partition contains the image of Toshiba files that use by the Toshiba recovery disc Creator who creates a recovery disk. In addition, the image on another partition files can be used to perform a procedure of recovery of HARD drive, but I n t think that this option is available if you need to run a clean install.

  So if you want to set the laptop back to the settings the factory (in the future) then I advise to use a recovery disc.
  These discs can be created using the recovery disc creator software as mentioned at the beginning

• 2000-2d27cl HP: recovery file exist but the recovery partition has been changed

  recovery partition has been extended and after several months I had some problems, so I decided to reset my laptop to factory settings but Recovery Manager computer cannot recognize the recovery partition. Recovery partition has been extended and I use this partition as a backup partition for my photos, programs and music. The reason why I want to reset to factory settings is because my laptop in early labour right and after ten minutes start to work very slowly, I can't do anything!

  Help, please!

  Thank you for your answer, but I was already able to reset my laptop to factory settings. My recovery partition has been extended, but the drive letter is different. When I realized this error, I change the drive letter. Recovery Manager started smoothly with F11 taster during startup. So, I think that everyone can do the same thing, you can change the size of your recovery partition and you can use it as backup partition, but do not try to move or copy your restore file to any location.

• M6-1035dx Pavilion: clone SSD drive cannot locate the recovery Partition

  I recently bought a HD 500 GB of SSD to replace the original that came with the laptop.  The SSD drive I bought is slightly smaller than the original one.   I used the cloning software is Macrium.  Partitions, I am interested in cloning are the HPTools and recovery.  Stand have been cloned successfully by the software.  I put the active recovery as well.

  After swapping the drives, the system starts the HPTools immediately, but the options for the restoration part are "grayed out".  I can't access it.  I tried several times, and this is where I am stuck.  It seems that the recovery partition is not detected by the cloned HPTools.

  I do not have the recovery DVD, but I have the original HD with partitions intact and they work just fine because I recently test the recovery process.

  I missed well to clone the original HD somehow that the SSD is unable to detect the partition?  Maybe I missed a step?  The difference in the size of the hard drive causes a problem in the recovery process?  How can I remedy the situation and use my new SSD?

  Thank you for all your advice.

  Try the complete sector-by-sector disk cloning.  If you use Macrium, you will need a paid version. The free version just do enough for the advanced cloning procedure you need.  See the following web document to compare versions.

  http://www.Macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx

  BTW, an SSD detects nothing. This is the BIOS and the operating system that detects hardware, firmware and software.

  You can use HP recovery media successfully on an SSD or not, that has at least 160 GB of capacity. Your 500 GB SSD certainly has enough capacity.

• Where are the installation of Vista on the recovery partition files stored?

  Where are the real Vista installation files stored on the recovery partition? If it helps I have a Compaq Presario SR5601UK. They are all stored in a folder or are they distributed? A quick dir at the command prompt, the only way you can access the files :-(, revealed a large amount of .wim files, mainly in "preload", but none on about 100 MB in size. I just assumed that HP uses the real Vista installation process, just gives their graphical front-end and adds some garbage in. If he does not tell everything.

  Anon, they all are on partition D: and no, this isn't a hidden Vista copy. It is integrated with the HP software. This is also why you cannot repair Vista unless you have a retail copy. Other you need to perform a restore.

• DataSafe may not find the recovery Partition

  Hi, I have an Inspiron 1545 with Windows7 and I am creating a USB recovery in case the system has a problem. When you run the DataSafe Local Backup app, the main screen says that it can not locate the recovery partition. When you click Backup, and then create recovery system, options 'USB Flash Drive' media and "drives" are grayed out.

  If I look in disk management, the RECOVERY partition exists and is "healthy".

  What can I do to build recovery media?

  gossamer1

  Thanks a lot for your help. I'm still angry that, through the no fault of mine, the recovery partition is unusable. It seems that something in the previous attempt to create the recovery media corrupted the recovery partition.

  Its an inherent weakness of the recovery Partition. Any slight involuntary changes in the size of the file or the content may be corrupted. I was strongly against the recovery Partition and the end user, creating their own installation media of the political Recovery Partition OEM media of reduction that Microsoft pushed. However Windows 10 .isos being downloadable and constantly updated future distributions Windows should be acceptable.

  gossamer1

  The installation of Windows 10 will ask my Service tag number? I don't see a license sticker Windows7 on the bottom of the laptop as I've seen in the past.

  Yes as it will search the Windows 7 COA under the battery of your system. Windows 10 should run fine on this model. I ran it on an older model without problems.

• New HD: The recovery partition restore

  Hello

  I'm trying to upgrade my hard drive of 3000 N200 to a bigger, faster disk (250 G).

  I find the recovery (startup Lenovo care button) of a big utility feature, because I'm a computer technician and my system has to be reinstalled frequently.

  My question is: How can I migrate the recovery on my new drive partition.

  I used Symantec Ghost to clone disk to disk (I put the two in a desktop PC and copied directly from 1 in the other), but let the ghosts to change the size of the data partitions (to my knowledge, ghost has kept the same size of the hidden recovery partition).

  But when I try to boot from the recovery partition, I block just after the choice of the F key (where I pressed F11) on a white screen.

  I saw a few disks and restore discs can be, but I would use the recovery partition as it is autonomous and always with the computer by definition.

  Is there a way to get things to work on the new drive.  I have access to the old drive as it still works OK, so slow.

  Thanks for the information

• Rebuild the recovery partition

  Hi all

  Since my macbook pro in construction since a backup time machine, I have no recovery partition. Not sure if the recovery of time machine is the cause, or that the guy who has this laptop (work) in front of me he erased accidentally.

  I tried to use the script of "Recovery Partition creator" on several occasions, but it did not work. It becomes very urgent to get the recovery as soon as I'm running into several issues that require me to have the partition:

  • Disk errors on my internal drive that requires a correction
  • Need to encrypt my hard drive
  • Try to resize my disk internal, so I can install El Captain next to my current OS X I just need to test before you lose access to the work of the features (earlier version cannot be installed as he does not like our proxy for example).

  Happy to go all the way to 'clean up' and then to retrieve locks of tiem machine, but no idea how to do things right :-(

  Any ideas?

  I feel that you are not the first user or 'owner' of the MBP.  If this is the case, I suggest the following:

  Back up all your data.

  Erase the HARD drive and start in the recovery of the Internet (OPTION-COMMAND-R) which will connect you to the Apple servers.  Following the directions, you will be able to erase the HARD drive and install the original OSX the MBP came with.  The recovery partition must be created.  (I guess that the MBP is a 2011 late model or newer).

  Install a more recent OSX (as appropriate).

  Reinstall your user data.

  Ciao.

• Can I change the drive letter of the recovery partition?

  HP P7-1235, Win7 64 bit running. 1 TB HARD DRIVE

  I usually partition my hard drive, so that my data is separate from the operating system and applications.  the operating system is the C: partition, and my data is generally D:.  The problem is: "D:" is used by the recovery partition.

  I can change his letter to something else, and recovery still works?

  Hello

  Well, everything has been said on this subject and its okay.

  It's better to not touch the D: partition, set another letter to your other partiion, if you change the recovery partition, you won't be able to use it.

  But you can also do a thing, you can go ahead and create your copy of the recovery disks, just enter some DVD, create your copy of the recovery Image, then you can change the drive letter of the partition Recovery to E: or even delete that.

  A copy of records RRS, you can always use them to again state of the plant, and that will reformat all your partitions, create the recovery disks and do what you want and prefer with you D: partiion.

  Thank you
