• Pavilion dv6t-2000 - cannot recover from the recovery partition

  Hey there. I'm trying to restore my laptop with Win 7 settings, but I can't seem to restore from my recovery partition. I tried the F8, F11 key and on the ways to office with no luck. In some of them, recovery option is grayed out, but using the recovery on the Desktop Manager, I have recovery option, but he says to insert disk 1 before continuing. I have no disc and I already have a previous restoration set the last time I got my laptop (about 2 years ago).

  When I click on my computer I see the c drive and d drive - what is labeled a recovery partition. I did a check of the recovery partition and there are no errors. It seems to work fine, except that my laptop is not to be used to recover. I know it's a major road, so I've never tested with it.

  Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated

  It is more likely that some of the files were corrupted on the recovery partition. At this point, since you have no recovery disc, I would phone HP to order recovery media.

• XPS 12 / Win 8: how to boot from the recovery partition / reinstall Windows?

  Messed up things on a newly purchased 12 XPS in Windows 8, and I want to boot from the recovery partition and reinstall windows.

  Support online pages point by pressing F8 during startup, but this does not at all.

  How can I access the recovery partition?

  To access to the menu of, , press F2.

  To enter the boot options menu, press F12.

  Because the XPS 12 boots so fast, it is better to repeatedly press F2 or F12 after restarting the machine. During the startup process, texts for options should appear at the bottom right of the screen. If you enter Windows, you will need to restart again and press F2 or F12 until it works. However, I don't think there is an option in the BIOS to restore the computer to its factory condition. The previous post by DELL-VIKRAM M describes how to properly restore the machine to its factory state.

  Hello

  If you have already changed the partitions of HARD drive and deleted files from the HARD disk, then your HARD drive recovery is too bad!

  But to make sure that the HARD drive recovery is not possible please press F8 immediately after the power of the laptop. Usually a start menu should appear and you should be able to choose the option called fix my computer. Then you should be able to choose recovery option.

  But like I said that this is only possible if your HARD drive was not formatted!

  If you have formatted the HARD drive and changed partitions then you will need a Toshiba DVD recovery that you have not because you didn t he create at the beginning. Is this good? Well, then you must order the recovery DVDs if you want to retrieve the laptop to factory settings.

• recover from the recovery partition

  I found several entries by searching in the forum, but nobody seems to be similar to my problem:

  I want to recover my windows vista system partition using the partition recovery on my T61p.

  It worked very well for me last time. But in the meantime I installed Ubuntu which was installing the grub loader, I think that what causes the problem all to rewrite the mbr.

  By pressing the Thinvantage key while booting does not show me the usable entries. If I boot from the Thinkpad - Recovery Boot disk iexpect only after pressing 'next' linux partitions and data will be deleted also.

  But especially as I could finally recovery... "Select the partition you want to use as the system partition" or another message like this.

  I remember, I was delighted when I saw this message. Because at the time, I was doing this I was expecting something like that. But today, that would be great, I don't have to reinstall Linux.

  Can you please tell me how I'm going to continue?

  Thank you

  For 3 or 4 days I'm looking a solution for my problem.

  I tried many things and spent a lot of time reading about similar issues.

  Windows Vista Ultimate on my T61p is not able to upgrade to SP1. I did it via ThinkVantage System Update, Windows Update function function and I downloaded the SP1 of Microsoft.com.

  Meanwhile my games installed do not work, I reinstalled them and then got an error message like: ereg.exe does not work.

  Installation completed then and I got the same error as before, at the start of the game.

  I had a serious accident before 4 months and I spent all the time in hospitals. My only satisfaction now is my new T61p and I don't get to work.

  PROBLEM:

  Maybe I did something wrong before update so I tried to use the recovery feature to set windows to the same status as when I got the laptop.

  I tried using the CD Boot Vista added, disk 1-c and the last c. I also tried using the recovery partition which I did not have to work when I started this thread.

  During this time I installed the rescue and recovery 4.2 and now he got the correct menu entry. When I select this function (F11) starting the computer was 'normal' and I had the selection of GRUB menu...

  I also found a scandiskpatch.exe which should correct some problems of RnR using Vista and 4.2 RnR. But when I doubleclick on it, I get a message that my computer do not have good condition for the correction of program (or something else, I use the German language pack.

  I want to restore my computer, and then try to update and if this doesn't work I still will have to find a solution for this.

  Please help me with this very annoying problem.

• Can I choose between Windows 7 / 8 for the restoration of the recovery partition?

  I bounced here of the US forum... The laptop - P50 (PSPMHA-01D00L) was bought in New Zealand of second hand, but was originally bought at Christmas Leeming in New Zealand.

  A colleague bought one earlier in 2013 and has been able to choose between Windows 7 and 8 times the PC started first to the top.

  Who is going to be the case if I perform the same function now, given that Windows 8 has already been chosen by the previous owner, and I prefer Windows 7?

  I would try it, but I prefer to have an idea of what might happen - for example is it necessary to enter a product key at any time (there is no CoA with a product key to this topic).

  TIA,

  Hello

  I am from Europe and it is unclear to me how it works with portable computers on other continents, but I think it must be the similar principle as here in Europe.
  What you can do now is to install original recovery image and see what options will be available first boot after installation of recovery image.

  Think about a recovery media too. Use the preinstalled recovery media creator and create recovery DVD or USB.

• 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

• win7 install from a copy of the recovery partition?

  I just bought a desktop PC HP G5135uk for my daughter, but she wants me to downgrade to winxp to win7 for her. As I understand it, the only way to save and install the win7 system later (this or any of my other PC) is to burn discs from the recovery partition. I don't want to lose the system as it was part of the price, but is not no matter what dvd - r at the moment, so I was wondering if simply copying the recovery partition completely on my back of the drive (on our network) may run until I can pick up some discs? I would also just that partition in place anyway, no format, simply install xp on the system partition.

  Advice or to monitor problems appreciated. Also, I hope the drivers are working or I can replace with versions mean for xp (downloaded all the drivers for this machine already as backup).

  Save yourself a lot of grief and burn the recovery DVD set. Usually only takes 2-3 DVD. I found that Sony DVD + R works the best for me to have several machines HP belonging to the family.

  Copy of the partition rarely works. I have tried everything recently on a laptop hard drive that wasn't when the owner did not (yet) a recovery set... didn't work. Software to create an exact copy of imagery would be the best chance to work by restoring the image of the hdd_but who rarely works either.

  BTW, the machine has the Intel G41 Chipset and a SATA hard drive, so you will need to change to AHCI Mode IDE controller in the BIOS to enable XP install. XP doesn't have SATA drivers. Or you can integrate SATA drivers with nLite and burn a new cd of XP.

• Vista 64 does not start after the bios screen. Can not boot from the recovery cd or help

  Last night a MS pushed a windows update and my pc restarted automatically.  But it does not actually restart.

• Q: How do I restore from USB if the recovery partition is deleted?

  Hi, make a backup of my spectrum 14 of jealousy cumputer Windows 7 on a USB stick with hp Recovery Manager. After that I deleted the restore disk partition and installed Windows 8. Now have sleep/power issues on Windows 8, need to go back to 7 can I test before sending it in for repair.

  Even if I did a backup USB, of bus I can't boot from the USB and the ect/f11 option at startup, does nothing, yet windows just starts.

  Now, how can I restore from a USB Pendrive without having access to the F11 restore the disk option, how to reinstall System Restore?

  Hello

  A backup is not a clone. You have cloned partition to a USB bootable for her to work.

  The HP Backup & Recovery Manager does not copy the recovery partition, even if you back up the entire hard drive.

  Here is a reference for the HP Recovery Manager manual.

  Unless you do a recovery as a DVD or USB media, the only source for what is available to you is to buy a set of recovery disks.

  I would like to have better news for you on this subject.

  Best regards.

• Pavilion 6b50ei: try to factory reset but the recovery partition/drives created are defective

  I have a pavilion dv7-6b50ei notebook pc purchased 2012. He always gives a command prompt pop up who don't stay long enough to read. I felt too there is a virus on it that my anti-virus did not solve so I tried the factory reset, but when I restart and press F11 it gives an error (something like a boot... is missing). so I tried my recovery disks. CD 1 of 4 ran fine but disk 2 continues to stop with an error. Now, the laptop will not charge because I think that the operating system was formatted during the recovery and do not know what to do. I feel disc 2 is bad too because he also gave an error trying to copy on a USB key. I also tried an external dvd and run the hp hard disk test; the hard drive passed the test. If I can get a new set of recovery discs, it would solve my problem. In addition, I look forward to ideas. Help, please.

  Hello

  There are two options available.

  1. you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can still read all the key character product activation 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the Disk Image correct ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn offerings) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.
