The system image does not work on win7 Home Premium HP Pavilion Elite HPE 250f

The system image (and Windows Backup with and without Image system options) just do not start with the same error message indicating insufficient space for "Volume Shadow copy".

HD has about 100 MB for the operating system and other files more about 11 GB for HP Factory Image.  Trying to backup to an external drive, Iomega USB with 650 GB of capacity.  External hard drive now empty but has been used before.

HP support has no answer!

April 24, 2013

Just thought I'd give you the answer to this old problem.

Windows 7 (for earlier versions) work as described in the help of the screen except that the VSS mode

must be turned on.  This allows Windows to actuall save parts of the operating system

Although these parts are involved in the actual backup.

Shame on the HP technical support for not knowing this.

In addition, the original tech support suggestion was to call Microsoft.

With a new HP PC you have no direct support from Microsoft (free).

It took me a while to work with Paragon Backup (wonderful product) to realize that VSS

must be enabled in the operating system for these virtual backup features to work.

  • Equium - dead after hibernation, the system recovery does not work

    Hello
    I'm trying to fix the laptop of one of my friends, but so far without success. It's a Toshiba Satellite with Vista.

    She had problems with a black screen after startup in Windows Vista. I found a work around for this problem, but it was a little complicated for her... She doesn't know much about computers. ;)
    So I but it would be a good idea to tell him to always use hibernation. However, when I put the portable standby extended, all seemed fine, shutdown, power off.
    I tried and then turn it back on. Light turns green, cd drive makes noises. Nothing more. Screen remains completely black. No sounds. Keyboard input does not work. No access to the Manager startup or anything else. He left light until I pass him by pressing the button for a few seconds.
    I removed the battery and put back in place, without result.
    Connection to an external monitor shows no results.
    When I put the original CD recovery Toshiba, no results.

    So, basically a cell phone dead. Ah yes, I'm in the Brazil in a small village, away from the stores of tech support or computer. Maybe a problem material, but all was working fine until I used the hibernation.

    Any help or ideas would be very appreciated! ;)
    Daniel

    Hello

    My laptop could not wake up after hibernation too but I managed to wake up again.
    This;
    Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery.
    Now, you will have to wait a while 1 hour should be sufficient, but you can leave the laptop disconnected for a longer time (all night long)

    After that, you must connect the battery and AC adapter and should try to light the device if it will not help you then you are in trouble
    This would mean that a serious hardware problem causing this problem and I doubt you could remedy without any help from the ASP.

  • Envy of HP dv7-7332ea - System Restore does not work on windows 8

    Hey there,

    I recently bought this machine about a month ago. I used the Windows 8 System Restore feature to restore my pc to a previous state.

    However, after running it, I got a message saying: it failed and to ensure my anti virus is disabled. Accordingly, I have disabled Norton and tried again but it still does not work.

    Previously, the only problem I had with the pc was that he locked himself completely and therefore I turned off the machine that I have been unable to close.

    When I rebooted, HP Support Assistant could not run and so I uninstalled and then reinstalled from website theHP. It is now resolved. The thing is I'm a little scared that something is wrong with the machine that is the reason why I think that the system restore does not work.

    I'm a newbie on the computers here. Could you please give me some advice to diagnose if there is nothing wrong with my machine and fix the system restore?

    See you soon,.

    Hi Damon,

    Norton is a component called 'Tamper Protection' that should be disabled before a system restore can be performed - for more details on this topic, see the following link.

  • System Restore does not work, once again.

    Hi, I read a topic of 2010 that has not yet been answered. I worked with a tech at Microsoft by e-mail, but when I answered: System Restore didn't work. Now it does not work yet. I had installed Returnil system safe, but I got an error msg 0 x 80004005, (third-party antivirus), so I uninstalled the program. I went through the registry and delete something with Returnil all 4 sections of the registry. Remove the common files folder that was left after uninstalling. Restarted my computer several times. I use MSE, with free versions of spywareblaster and MBAB, who are both at the request not in real time. I tried to restore to a time before I had installed Returnil first, (I installed and uninstalled 3 times in 2 days) and could not. I tried to use a snapshot to restore spywareblaster and managed to restore to the point 2 x before installing because forward the installation of point returnil has been altered. At the moment no malware has been detected and no threat of MSE. What to do next?

    Thanks in advance for any help. Liz.

    Here's my usual route to find out how to reinstall System Restore:

    If you have already run MBAM and SAS, temporarily disabled your antivirus and anti-malware applications and tried your Safe Mode system restore and you still get the restoration of the system to work, you must reinstall just your system restore.  You do not have to reinstall XP - just reinstall the system restore part.

    System Restore is a frequent target of attacks by malicious software.

    When you reinstall the system restore, all your current Restore Points will be deleted and you must restart your computer once the installation is complete.  After the reboot, a new Restore Point will be created as a new point of system control in your calendar of SR.

    If your system had a malware infection, it could be that some of the files in your old Restore Points are also infected up to wipe out the 'old' and new is often a good idea if you wonder if the old Restore Points are infected or not.

    Assuming that your XP is installed on drive C of your computer:

    As you go through the reinstallation of the RS, the resettlement will be asked to locate certain files as you go along and ask your XP installation CD.   If you do not have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, you can change the path where Setup looks for files one at a time, because they are needed.  More on that later.

    Navigate to the following folder:

    c:\Windows\Inf

    Locate and right-click the following file:

    SR.inf

    Choose Install

    If you can not see the sr.inf file, set up your system to show hidden files and show file extensions.

    Click on tools, Options, view and turn on "Show the hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types", then you should be able to see the file c:\windows\inf\sr.inf.

    Installation can request files from the c:\windows\inf\386 folder.  It would be your installation CD bootable XP genuine if you have one and the Service Pack installed on your system must be the same as the CD that you will use.

    You don't need absolutely a CD to do the reinstall, because files must already be on your system somewhere if SR was working before.

    If you are prompted for a file, and you can't find it where I suggest in my example below (it works on my system), you need to search your hard drive and find where the files on your system.

    If the request to a file and you don't know where he is, let waiting for installation and click Start, search, and search for it
    has requested the file and find it on your system.  If SR has already worked before, the file is already on your system somewhere.

    Search finds the requested file, go back to the installation and specify the path where you found the file requested and click OK.  Installation can request several files along the way, but you can find them all.

    Here's how my system works when I reinstall SR when I pretend that I don't have a genuine XP bootable installation CD:

    When you are asked:

    SR.sys

    Point the install in c:\windows\system32\drivers

    When you are asked:

    c:\windows\system32\srclient.dll

    Point install it in c:\windows\system32

    When you are asked:

    Filelist. XML

    Point of installation at c:\windows\system32\restore (or c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386)

    When you are asked:

    srframe. MMF

    Point installation c:\windows\system32\dllcache (c:\windows\system32\restore)

    Once installation is complete, you will receive a message that you must restart your computer.

    Restart your computer and look at your schedule of SR.  You should have a new point system control in your calendar.

    When you get SR working again, I ran MBAM and SAS to make sure that your system is reasonably clean of malware.

    The day that you think you need to help the system restore you is not the day to discover the system restore does not work, then you need to test.

    After the reinstallation, manually create a Restore Point and test the restoration process and make sure that you are convinced that it works from one end to the other.

  • System Restore does not work completely. Virus problem?

    When the System Restore dialog box asks me when I want to restore from I can not pass separating two to another. The instructions are to click on a date "BOLD", but most of the dates are "BOLD", (b) none of them are clickable outside today and (c) the back arrows for the previous month, while only clickable, do nothing.

    I think I have a virus or somesuch and wants to do a restore. Maybe the virus of going to stop.

    WXP SP3 Prof

    Viruses often attack the system restore because it's such a threat to them - which is certainly possible.  Unfortunately, all my anti-virus, anti-malware and anti-spyware solutions are for Vista (which is the Forum, you are in).  You must post this question in the appropriate forum where they have the information, procedures and links to help you.

    One thing, if the system restore does not work in normal mode, it sometimes will run in Mode safe then start safe mode and try it.

    In addition, if you use any Norton product, turn it off, then restart and try to restore again - Norton is known to cause problems with system restore.

    Sometimes, the problem can be solved by turning the restoration of the system off and then back on.  Unfortunately, a side effect of this is to lose all your restore points you want to restore this may not be such a good option to try (even if it can correct the underlying problem): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310405/en-us.

    If none of the above works, please repost your question on the Forums of XP to: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsxp where the XP experts will be happy to help you.
