• Using system recovery discs and now windows won't load.

  My computer crashed and I tried everything to get it running and backup. My desktop computer does start all the way to the top.

  The HP page will load, so I can use the f keys. When I run the diagnostic tools (f9) it test all memory, cpu, hardware ect and says it's fine.

  I reloaded Windows Vista off my system recovery disks, I did once I bought the computer. I had to do it every six months or more. Several times in recent weeks.

  It then goes to the windows error recovery page if I select one of the options, it is empty. It never makes it to the login page.

  Thank you

  There is no limit on the number of times you can use the recovery disks.  You must contact the manufacturer about the recovery process, as it is them and not Microsoft.  Each manufacturer does things differently and we don't have access to this information.

  In regard to the upgrade to Windows7, you must upgrade work install Vista system if it does not you will need to purchase a full retail copy of Windows7 and do a cleaning.  The problem is that you don't know if Windows7 is compatible with your system - and once you open the package the seller will probably accept returns.  It ' was a great risk to do this withour executes the first Windows7 Compatibiity advise http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/upgrade-advisor.aspx but if you have no access to your system you can't run it.  You can get in your system somehow?  Have you tried safe mode with networking (repeatedly press F8 during the boot process until the menu appears)?  If you can somehow get, run this check before considering the upgrade to Windows7.  You can also ask the manufacturer if your system is compatible with Window7 but they may or may not provide a correct answer.  The decision and the risk is all yours.

  The short answer is that you need to discuss this problem with the manufacturer and follow their advice.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• 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 system recovery disc for the PC HP Pavilion?

  I press a dozen HP desktop systems.  In my software collection, I found a three-disc set of HP system recovery discs that were not labeled with a hint of the association of the system.

  The discs are marked by these numbers = 5012-0414, 5012-0415 and 5012-0416.

  It would be helpful if someone can tell me which PC HP Pavilion, these discs are designed so that I can either label or throw it out.

• Recovery discs and product keys?

  My laptop came with no recovery disc and began to play up if I want to erase everything and leave. The disks of backup that have been made are only records do not and do not let me recover the system. Can I use a disc of recovery from another PC, but enter the product key for the laptop? My two machines running Vista Home premium. The disc of recovery for a Dell desk top and my laptop is a Sony. Is it still possible to interchange the recovery discs? I have to download different drivers for the laptop before you erase the hard drive? Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Gary.

  Hello

  Sorry, but you cannot use a recovery disk on a Sony Dell.

  This applies to all of the different brands.

  And if you have problems with the backup disks you made, read this information toreinstall Vista:

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  without success.  Is it still possible to recover these lost files?  Thank you very much for your help!

• How to recover my computer to factory settings? How to buy recovery discs and which ones?

  I recently bought a used computer on craigslist.  It's a HP Pavilion a6700f.  He came originally with Vista, but the previous owner installed Windows 7 32 on it.  I want to put it back to factory settings, but I can't seem to do it without the recovery disks, which I did not.  I have tried F11 at startup, but the system recovery won't be open in this way for a reason any.  I tried to buy HP recovery disks, but they only for Windows Vista 64-bit.  I'm not sure if my computer came with Vista 64 bit or -34, although she has 34 bit Windows 7 right now.  How can I recover the computer to factory settings?  Can I buy the Vista 64-bit recovery discs and use them?  Will they work?  Thank you.

  Hello

  The command system will work for you given that provide you the product id of your machine. Please use the following link, it should tell you that the original operating system:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/bph07143

  Good luck.

  ps. Based on the following link, its original operating system was:

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium with Windows Media Center with Vista Service Pack 1 (64-bit)

  Therefore, it should work with 64 bit.

• 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.

  Jim

  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.

  Looks like you might already have instructions to perform the recovery, but I though that I would like to send you the link just to be safe.  Please make sure that you follow all instructions exactly as shown.  Also, the recovery may seem like it is suspended, but it is actually still being run.  I suggest that you expect and that you give enough time 3-4 hrs min to finish.

• 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.

• Difference between the use of system repair disc and original media

  Hello

  I'm about to create a backup image of my OS, but I can see an option for a system repair disc, but in a previous question, I was told that the original install media will suffice.

  Should I create this image or only be concerned about the system.

  Thank you all.

  Just three days ago, I used a Windows 7 (without SP1) installation disc to restore a System Image of Windows 7 with SP1.

  If you want, you can create the system repair disc, but it is not necessary.

  Thanks in advance.
