Unsuccessful recovery of desktop HP Pavilion with Windows XP

Hello world

I have an old model of UK 433.la that worked reliably until recently. Following a corruption on the hard drive stopping the loading o/s, I used the HP Windows XP Recovery discs. The option I chose was a reinstallation of Windows XP without reformatting the drive. The copy of the o/s worked OK but when I booted up I get the error "NTDLR is compressed. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart»

Anyone have any ideas about why this error occurs? (Not sure if connected but some time ago, I ran the compression option for the office hard to increase its capacity).

1. check the Windows Update

2. open C:\Documents & settings. You should see the old user accounts with data inside. The files will have to be moved to correct the profile after the creation of new user accounts. You can then delete the accounts user.old.

For what it's worth, it is usually best to back up the files on CD/DVD or external USB hard drive user and perform the full destructive recovery on problem machines.

  • I have a HP Pavilion with windows vista, can I create recovery system on dvd - r discs? Donkey1

    I have a HP Pavilion with Windows Vista a6214x.  About 3 years ago, I created my recovery with 2 discs dvd - r system

    I never had problems by creating discs and my HP troubleshooting and maintenance guide says that I could use either

    the dvd - r or dvd + r. But the other day, technical support of HP said use the dvd + r to create system recovery discs. If this is the case, I have to start all over again and create Sytem recovery discs on dvd + r?

    Donkey #1

    The DVD creation has always been a unique event. I'd be surprised if it worked.

    HP can tell you how to reset the utility.

  • Refresh utility does not not on my hp pavilion with Windows 8.1 15-n010tx system

    I recently bought my system from hp with wondows pavilion 8

    After that I was offered an upgrade to windows 8.1... now I want to reinstall the operating system using Refresh utility but it shows the message that some files are missing... and it cannot refresh

    kindly guide me someone...

    Hi LEN1995,

    Sorry to hear about the problems with Windows 8.1. Did you create a restore point in Windows 8 before you upgrade to 8.1? It should create on its own, but if you have another one you could try it. Is that what you were referring to when you mentioned the update utility?

    According to Microsoft if there is an error then you will need the original CD or recovery CD. I saw your other post where you asked on the CD, so I'll assume that you do not have a recovery CD. This is the contact page for the India call them and they should be able to get you set up with the recovery CD.

    Thank you

  • Z30-A-1E9 recovery media from the satellite with Windows 10 or Windows 7

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Ultrabook (Satellite Z30-A-1E9). It comes with pre-installed 64-bit Windows 8.1 home version. Whenever after a successful recovery process, the cell starts to upgrade the operating system software to Windows 10. It takes a lot of time and focusing on the material of the ultrabook. I'm looking for a recovery with Windows 10 or Windows 7 media. Is it possible to find anywhere or at least create it by myself?

    Thanks a lot for your time!

    Miroslav

    The recovery image Win7 Pro does not work because your laptop is a Win8 Home Edition key.

    You can block the automatic upgrade of Win10.

  • My HP is a possibly faulty memory of Memory1.5TB Pavilion Desktop 10 GB with Windows 7 Home Premium

    My computer has had problems from 4 months after purchase. The motherboard had to be replaced. And now a few months later there's a lot of freezing, whining, moaning and popping. Geek Squad supposed to be fixed after bouncing around different States for more than a month and apparently he is not fixed. I believe that this computer is faulty and whenever I have Geek Squad online check it they say it's a hardware problem and get it fixed. It seems that this replacement is not an option and I'm frustrated. It was a birthday present and I had problems MAJOR with best buy and Geek Squad of the store being VERY rude and uncooperative and mislead me in information. I don't want to go back, but my computer is more and more in his questions. How can I do together? I have a letter prepared for headquarters in Palo Alto, California, but I'm afraid, it will be just thrown in the trash or ignored because I'm just a custormer among thousands. This situation has had so many twists and turns that my letter is six pages long with what I was put through.

  • I just bought a G6 Pavilion with windows 8, where is the product key for windows?

    As above, there is a stricker saying Windows 8 64 and that's it.

    I need the product key, as to prefer a clean install and need complete recoverability in the event of a HARD disk failure.

    When I buy a laptop with a BONE, I expect to have the operating system, not 'rent' it until something bad happens.

    Thank you.

    Yes, the recovery discs can be used to start the computer and reinstall it on hdd original or new - without needing a license key.

    I would always Support HP phone for information on the certificate of authenticity. Choose your country here > Contact HP

  • HP Pavilion 15-n203sx: problem of usb 3.0 of 15-n203sx HP Pavilion with Windows 10

    I managed to install all the Windows 10 and some drivers Windows 8.1 left.

    My problem is when I connect my external usb3.0 HARD drive to the USB 2.0 on the right, it connects successfully, but when I connect it to two ports usb3.0 on the left, the HARD drive lights, but it does not appear in windows. I suspect that the ports are not fed enough current (amperage).

    I suspect that the reason is the generic driver from Microsoft for the eXtensible Host Controller:

    I tried to install the driver Windows 8.1:

    HP 3005pr USB 3.0 Port Replicator driver 7.6.56275.0 Rev.A

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion Notebook 15-n203sx and problems with USB 3.0 does not properly. Here is a download that I found for Windows 10 and HP 3005pr USB 3.0 Port Replicator which should solve your problems. You need to uninstall both Intel that are listed, and then install the Windows 10 we. Once the installation is complete, restart your laptop and check the drivers.

    I hope it suits it.

    Please let me know how it goes.

    Thank you.

  • New desktop using Aspire with Windows 10

    I bought my desktop computer to replace an older XP.  I couldn't load the latest version of the MS Office software on it, and needed to migrate to that, if I could help my spouse who IS using it.  I have a laptop running Windows 7, which I became quite familiar with over the last few years, but I'm much more comfortable with XP.  (I miss some of the things that we used to be able to do with the BACK!)

    Because here, I have a few comments and general issues.  First comment is that I've always been annoyed when I want to use a computer, turn it on, and many upgrades are to be downloaded and installed before I can get to what I want to do.  From there, I will NOT have anything in my computer that I don't need.

    Issue of one to come: why should I keep Acer portal, Photo AB, AB files, Docs Media AB, AB or the Acer of Cloud version?  I have all the Windows Office software and am familiar with it.  It also works on the machine of my wife and my laptop, that are not Acer brand.  (These programs all came loaded when I bought this desktop computer.)

    2nd question, I hope someone can answer: once an update is downloaded and installed, is it necessary to keep the file downloaded to the hard drive?  When cleaning my former office, in addition to the hundreds of files that I wanted to transfer, there were at least that much downloaded the updates of anti-virus software and Microsoft.  They certainly to connect a hard drive!

    Thank you

    (1) not necessary if you do not use Acer cloud services. If you can uninstall it without harming your PC.

    key of the Windows logo + x

    programs and features

    Select the software you want to uninstall and click on uninstall

    (2) you can do a disk clean from time to time:

    key Windows logo + s

    type

    Clean the disc

    Click on the first result

    then click on clean up system files

    wait until it ends to scan and check the box on the list that you want to clean; you will find windows updates too.

    (3) personal suggestion, if you have installed McAfee, uninstall it and just use the built-in windows antivirus firewall; going bad less than McAfee system performance.

    to uninstall, use this official tool from McAfee:
