• dynamic disk recovery issue and I cannot make a primary partition

  I have to cover, please read in full before answering a few questions. This problem started when I made another (retractable) partition on my main drive to run another operating system in a duel start setting. I made this partition, then I think that all my partitions (including recovery) computer went to dynamic. I deleted a partition, so I'm not going on the max 4 so I could do a primary, but she's still dynamic (that I made). First of all, I want to be able to make a primary partition to boot another operating system, and how can I do this without deleting my recovery? I don't want to use 3 third party software, unless they are free. Since my recovery is now a dynamic partition, can 2nd question, I still make a recovery? 3rd question, if I have to delete everything to my basic primary partitions, then can HP gives me a way to backup the recovery, or a least a way to send a recovery disk. Also, when I made the partition, I deleted the HP tools which was 200 MB partition (I think, but I don't remember), how can I reinstall it? Or it is necessary. Overall, I need to make sure that my system windows 7 will be stable with recovery and use with dynamic partitions. In addition, I have not used this program, but I was looking at a problem with a program called HxD Hex, http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=191006, I did not try this because it says this sector 0 1 2 location of the partition I tried to do a primary (Hex) actually says 4f instead of 42. ANY HELP WILL BE AMAZING! At least tell me my system can be stable with a dynamic partition, and I can repeat once if something goes wrong.

  Yes HP recovery disks will change back, but the question is that HP Recovery Manager will not be able to burn recovery discs, or perform a system partition recovery until the hard disk is converted back to base. At least this is what I've seen other posters.

  Seems (to me anyway) the only option is to use the software I mentioned above and convert back to basic & burn recovery discs or order from HP recovery discs.

• Recovery DVDs reformatted partitions 'SYSTEM', 'RECOVERY' and 'HP_TOOLS '?

  My laptop is dv3-2313tx, it works Windows 7 system. I got the HP recovery DVD.

  I decided to use DVD factory restore my computer, of course, this erases my data on the 'C' partition, but I wonder if it will also format the entire hard drive and restore the other three partitions ('SYSTEM', 'RECOVERY' and 'HP_TOOLS')?

  Frankly, I really wish that the DVD will be ANY FORMAT, I like a new laptop clean. is this true?

  Booting from the recovery DVD formats the entire hard drive and recreates partitions.

• HP 13 Stream: Stream Hp 13 recovery issues...

  OK here goes...

  I have a sister in law who bought a 13 Stream with 64-bit Windows 8 HP.  My problem is that she tried to load windows 7 on it cause she hated windows 8 and couldn't use it.  Somehow when she tried to load windows 7 using a usb cd/dvd CD-ROM drive, she killed the recovery partition.  I have cautioned about loading Windows 7 on this unit TWICE...  The real issue is that she has no money to buy recovery discs, is possible to get the operating system or another on here.  It doesn't have a disc of 7 home premimum windows unregistered, and I am at a loss to help her.  I SAID his ias TI not a good ideal...

  Can someone help or advise?  It is just a paperweight...

  Thanks for any help in advance.

  Hi, you need the USB recovery to return to the factory Windows 8.1 with Bing.  8.1 Windows image that Microsoft makes available for download will install but it will not be validated.  Also for Windows 10 to validate, you must start with Windows 8.1 with Bing and then update.

  I think that Windows 7 should install right, I don't know if all drivers would be available for this purpose, you may enable boot legacy mode and disable start-up secured in the configuration menu of the UEFI.  I see a post about it here.

• No recovery Partition - question Recovery Media Creator

  Somehow, I don't have a recovery partition on my hard drive but have Toshiba Media creator on my desk?

  Images below:

  No recovery Partition? :

  + The message was edited: no labour relations have been removed.

  Hello

  It seems that the recovery media creator software is always installed, but the HARD drive recovery partition has been deleted from the HARD drive.

  This is why the recovery media creator can't access the HARD drive recovery partition.

  What to say. In this case, you will not be able to create the recovery media :(

  But you can order this disc from here:

• Unassigned basic partition after recovery Qosmio X 870-11 q

  I did a cover using the two HDD Recovery and using a disc of recovery, but my score from GB 931,51 has disappeared from my computer. When I right click on my computer, manage and then go to disk management, I have a non allocated base Drive 1 with this size.

  If the partition is there but there is no drive letter or it has not been Initialised and nor has it been formatted (although I can't format which without specifying the drive letter).

  How can I get the status of change unallocated allocated and recover this drive / partition?

  Any suggestions would be welcome.

  I m wondering why it happened
  I mean after the use of the recovery disc, the unit should be set to the factory settings.
  This means that you should find the same State of HARD drive as on the first day of purchase.

  As far as I know the laptop supports an SSD drive 128 GB and a 1 TB HARD drive
  I guess the system has been installed on the SSD 128 GB drive and the 1 TB HARD drive is empty.
  This seems to be the Partition unallocated basic

  > How can I get the status of change unallocated allocated and recover this drive / partition?
  You can do it in disk management.
  Right click and create a primary partition. Now you should be able to format the partition (NTFS file format) and would be able to add a s drive letter.

• partitions and recovery disk

  I have a satellite a10 and have partitioned the hard drive. Now, I have a small primary fat16 partition with a bootmanager, a partition main ntfs with windows xp and a partition extended, completely occupied by logical ntfs partitions with my documents. My wish was to install another operating system, making the smaller primary ntfs partition and put in the form of free space unallocated as a new primary partition.
  BUT... when I was doing the smaller partition, an error has occurred, and the computer is unbootable. Now, I think, my windows partition is damaged and have no chance to save.
  WHEN I try to use the toshiba recovery cd, will I have any chance not to format the entire disk, backup of my documents? Is possible to format (install Windows inside) that the space left by the corrupted partition?

  Thanks to all those who will read and help me!

  Hello

  Try the recovery for the professional Mode. In my view, this will help you.

• Can I delete the second partition after recovery media creating?

  I just create recovery media, with 2 DVDs and I wonder if I can now delete the partition on the HARD disk, which contains a folder named "HDDRecovery" called 'Data'

  Hello

  There is nothing special, just remove them as you usually do. The thing most important you have already made the recovery discs. :)

• Portege Z30T - Confused on partitions and recovery methods

  A few weeks ago, I bought a new PORTEGE Z30T-A PT24CE and upgraded to Microsoft Windows OS Version 8.1 Pro 6.3.9600 with its CDs. (it came with Windows 7 pre-installed)

  I have two questions that confuse me:

  1-) first of all, I got the laptop I upgraded to 8.1 win by a DVD burner. And I remember this time, he made a picture to copy at the end of the Windows installation. And then another reason I reset phone option "DELETE EVERYTHING AND REINSTALL WINDOWS. But SSD partition recovery recovery (since I don't use any DVD).

  My first question is: does make a difference to reset the PC from DVD of the TOSHIBA (which takes longer) than the reset of the image on the hard drive. I ask because if there is difference, I'll try new DVD reset.

  2-) when I check 256 GB SSD disk management I see the following disk partition (check the image below):
  [partition|postimg.org/image/57i99hsgr/]

  Here, there are the OEM partition and the recovery Partition. What is the difference between these two? Should I have them both? They occupy too much space each more than 8 GB.

  In regard to point 1)

  What software did you use to create the image after the update 8.1 Win?

  The fact is that the Toshiba recovery image was preinstalled on the laptop and recover the laptop using the recovery media (disk or USB key) or by using the procedure of recovery Toshiba HDD would reset the computer laptop back to the factory settings; on the same State as at the first day of the purchase.

  If you want to use another method of recovery or image, you reset draw the laptop to the State when the image was created.

  In regard to point 2)
  Unfortunately, somehow the link to the screenshot does not work
  However, as I said above: the Toshiba HDD recovery procedure redefines the laptop to factory settings and the recovery of image files is placed on a separate partition.
  This partition is very important to perform HARD drive recovery and create additional recovery media.
  This was the case for pre-installed Win 7 OS!

  The other partition may be created by Windows system after Win 8.1 install.
  I'm also a little confused about the image created...
  It would also be possible that this OEM partition is related to the image that you created after the installation of Win 8.1.

  In any case... it would be useful to know all the steps you did the upgrade...

  by the way: I also recommend you read some threads/posts on the topic of recovery here in the forum... This should help you understand the whole process

• I'll lose data from the drive of the partition during recovery?

  Hi all

  If I use the toshiba recovery CD to format my system, I'll lose data from the disks partition as well or just the C:?

  Hi Justin

  Well, what recovery CD you want to use?
  As much as I know several months Toshiba uses a new version of the CD recovery called Reco.
  You will find the settings option and there you can choose the option when you want to recover the operating system. I think that the first partition is erased.

  The old version of the recovery CD has supported two different options: standard and expert mode. Here it is important to use the expert mode if you want to choose the partition where the OS must be installed

• I can manually create partition data recovery CD?

  Hello

  I have a laptop (Satellite Pro) friends who is unable to start in Vista (even in safe mode) with a blue screen. I tried to start my Vista CD to try a windows repair, but even that translates the same blue screen. To cut a long story short, I want to use back to factory default, but the recovery CD were never created.

  I can access the contents of the disc (the C drive and the data partition) to boot from a CD live linux. Is there a way I can copy the files over again the data partition and create a CD/DVD using these files for recovery?

  Thank you very much

  > Is there a way I can copy the files over again the data partition and create a CD/DVD using these files for recovery?
  Lol you can't do that. What you can do now is to restore disc original order of Toshiba.
  Sorry but there is nothing you can do about it.

• Satellite A500 - 19 X - recovery issues

  Hello

  I am running 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium. I created my recovery using the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator DVDs and all original parts are still intact. However, I plan to switch to Ubuntu, and I would like to do a clean install, which would erase my C: and D: drives.

  I intend sicking with Ubuntu in the foreseeable future, but I was wondering that if I get fed up with it, I would be able to use my DVD of recovery of re - install Windows 7 on my machine. I wanted the whole process thorough research before you start, just in case. I read that in order to use the recovery DVDs, you must keep the intact recovery hidden partition.

  After you run diskmgmt.msc, I see the following:
  -A 400 MB partition, with the label (recovery Partition)
  -A GB 232,88 partition, with label (Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, primary Partition)
  -A 232,49 GB partition, labeled (Primary Partition)

  I'm guessing that when resizing my partitions (with GParted or something similar) I'll have to let the 400 MB partition intact and just change two larger partitions. Can someone tell me if this whole process works, or if I'm just wasting my time?

  Thanks in advance,
  -Matt

  Hey Buddy,

  The partition of 400 MB with file recovery has nothing to do with Toshiba and it s only a Microsoft features and contains some important files to the Windows recovery environment, but you can restore t Windows on this partition.
  On Wikipedia, there is an interesting article on the Windows recovery environment.

  IF you have already created the Toshiba recovery disc you are on the safe side and you can do what you want because you can always restore the preinstalled Toshiba with this disc because it s contains an image of the factory settings.

  You can delete all partitions and install Ubuntu. If you want to return Windows, simply use the Toshiba recovery disc. :)

  By the way: from Toshiba HARD drive recovery files are saved on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder HDDrecovery.

• Need help with the recovery partition/create recovery media

  HI - first thing I did when I got my thinkpad is a clean install of w7, but then I thought about it and restored the recovery partition, conviniently located at the end of the training, in order to create a backup dvd factory. Thing is, when I click the autorun (lenovoqdrive.exe) and select 'create recovery media', I get an error stating that "program files (x 86) \lenovo\factory recovery\recovburncd.exe" is missing... obviously since the operating system partition was crushed.

  I tried RnR and looked on the software + drivers page and nothing happens as "... \lenovo\factory recovery\" when it is installed. So, where can I download the program that creates the recovery discs?

  (I know possible to restore the operating system of the *.wim file but I want to leave that as a last resort).

  Okay here's what I did to who mightve had the same question: as mentioned earlier, I have restored the partition Q with (your favorite free partition recovery tool), then booted from a usb winpe (with imagex) generated from victory aik (free).

  first I deleted (from winpe boot usb) windoze partition with diskpart and recreated the 2 partitions S & C (and Q is on the left) by hand according to 'recovery.ini' found on q. then I restored S and C 'sdrivebackup.wim' and 'cdrivebackup.wim', respectively, using imagex.exe, which is actually two one liners.

  Finally, I tried the bcd to fixation by hand according to "bcdinfo.txt", also found on Q, but that did not really work... so I just jumped into a bootable win7 USB and he rewrote the bcd by itself (I assume). the last step has been fixing the mbr by using /fixmbr and /fixboot bootrec.exe.

  ATM I started just and afaict it behaves exactly like the first start-up of the plant. see you soon
