USB Thumbdrive recovery size?

Hello

I have a HP Pavilion dm1z-4100 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC.

I know the maximum size of a USB stick 32 GB recovery.  What is the size minimum necessary for creating a recovery USB USB key?  Don't want to go too small I'll buy a new thumbdrive usb to work.

Thank you

Hello

It may be around22Gb to 24 GB, very safe to use 32 GB

Kind regards.

  • Only allowed a Media USB Drive Recovery

    I noticed that HP allows me only to make a recovery 'drive '.

    The purpose of this is to prevent piracy of WIndows OS?

    Yes, but you cannot copy just normally because it is not bootable. You must clone. The following Web link might help you:

  • T: HPE 490 USB repair / recovery stick

    I have a USB system recovery/repair disk.

    They seem to be more reliable and faster than the CD (less easily damaged).

    I didn't get it still works.   I have a CD of resumption of work,

    and I tried different recipes to make the USB drive.  I can get the

    USB stick boot, but as soon as you check the language option

    kick recovery system, a window appears which says that

    recovery disk is not for the version of Windows you are trying

    Someone at - it had more success thereby and know what

    the method of preparation on the right is?

    You can do this easily in two stages using two free programs - RUFUS and ImgBurn.

    Using ImgBurn, you create an ISO file from the disc that you created.

    Then, with RUFUS, you create a USB bootable from ISO file, that you have created.

    Instructions are here: https://rufus.akeo.ie/

    I use these applications all the time, so I know that they are safe.

    Good luck

  • HP 15-f018dx Notebook PC: I have hp usb media recovery - instructions

    Hello. I ordered and the USB of recovery for

    HP laptop 15-f018dx.

    I used it in the past to go from 10 to 8.1 Windows because I found win 10 buggy. I've recently updated again to win 10 to solve something and see if it improved and I still think it's pretty buggy. I plan to go back to 8.1 new. I had to do a reset which eliminated the roundtrip option. I always have recovery usb and can use it, but I have lost the simple instructions that accompanies it. Is there a simple guide or instuction page on how to use the usb?

    Not how to order it, but how to use it. Thank you.

    Hello

    Insert the USB recovery and stop of the laptop.

    Click next to the ESC key as soon as you press the power button to enter the Boot Menu, and then select the Boot Options Menu ( f9 ).

    Use the arrow keys to select the USB drive option and press ENTER.

  • HP Pavilion 14-b017cl: follow-up on creating and using the USB key recovery to win 8 after replacing the bad hard drive

    I have 2 hp pavillion sleekbook model 14-b017cl'. I replaced the hard drive in my son after that she doesn't have the "optimized hard drive dst test '. I used my sleekbook work to create a USB stick recovery. I followed the instructions to use the recovery to Win 8 usb drive. When I started the laptop of my son, with the USB stick inserted, I got this message.

    PXE - m0f: exit pxe rom

    no bootable device-insert bootdisk and press a key

    Flash player Flash when I put under tension. I rebooted, you press F2, conducted an audit on the new hard drive, happened.

    Later, I inserted the recovery key in my laptop (that I used to create it) and it would not initialize to top. I checked the content to the flash drive and they seemed "Chargers", so it seems to be what I expected. It seems that the recovery USB STICK will not work if my own laptop dies. What I have to buy the HP flash drive, or I'm doing something wrong.

    Hi @gretschman7,

    Thank you for your query.

    I understand you are trying to perform a recovery from a USB flash drive, but you get the error "pxe - m0f: exit pxe rom.

    "no bootable device-insert bootdisk and press any".  You check the recovery media on your laptop as it is the same model and it seems fine.

    Looks like you may need to change the boot sequence. Here is a link to HP - performing a recovery system (Windows 8) HP computers that will help you.   Here is a link to a YouTube video which can also help:.  Performing a recovery of HP system on a laptop HP with Windows 8.

  • Where can I post a problem of Aspire One AO756 USB system recovery?

    Hello.  Where can I post a problem of Aspire One AO756 USB system recovery?  I had a HARD drive crash, replaced the HARD drive and bought a USB (Win 8.1) on the Acer Store system recovery disk.  The USB settles all the installation files and then said to remove the USB key, then click OK to restart.  But the bios can not find a bootable disk to complete construction. I was sent a second USB drive with the same results.  The new HDD Seagate passes each Seatools test.  In addition, I can boot from USB to the DOS or Linux and access the disk without problem. Thank you

    You must use diskpart. in the windows setup program, there is an option to format the partitions manually. allows to delete all partitions, and it will automatically set the MBR or GPT disk.

    hellohow can I boot my pc with USB {flash recovery}? Win 7 64 bit HP omni 100-pc5120

    Thank you.

    Start the PC and read the information on the Welcome screen.

    It should tell you which key press to the start menu.

    On Dell PCs it's F12 on my HP business overall it's F9 of the PC.

    Otherwise, press the F10 key, go into the BIOS and change the boot menu to boot from the USB device first.

  • Very slow ThinkCentre read USB thumbdrive

    I'll put up a refurbished computer, will you?  I think that it is the 4th query I posted here in the past few days on various issues I'm having with my ThinkCentre M51 1843 - WNV.  I love these machines.  I was using them in my desk at work for years.  But renovated is not so easily that I expected to be implemented.

    Today's question is that I have a USB thumbdrive (Kingston DataTraveler - 4 GB) I have used without problems with my old Office House and my ThinkCentre at work.  But this new ThinkCentre (well, that's new to me...) takes forever to read my USB.  I checked it in my old PC and it read liketty-split so there's something how my new ThinkCentre responds to it.  I tried a SanDisk USB key, and it was read without problem.  I use the USB ports to my printer, scanner and mouse so I think that the USB ports are fine.  Don't you think that it is possible that the PnP simply has not installed correctly when I inserted the Kingston DataTraveler?  It's my best guess.  But if this is the case, does anyone have an idea how to reinstall the driver for the DataTraveler?

    System details:

    win xp pro sp3

    2.5 GB OF RAM DDR

    SAPPHIRE HD Radeon ATI 4550 with 512 MB of DDR3 RAM

    WD Black Cavier HARD 500 GB drive

    I disabled the integrated graphics card mobo and drivers intel after that I installed the new ATI graphics card.

    I always use the mobo with soundmax integrated sound card.  I intend to replace it with a card SB X - Fi later this week.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    EDIT: After playing with him, some more it seems that ThinkCentre reads the thumbdrive very well and then it seems to weigh towards the top/pause no reason apparent almost as if he did not have the resources to carry out the task.  Yet the Office does not anything else at the time (that I can tell).  Very weird...

    This must have been related to the PCIe video card and audio integrated, because the problem has disappeared when I disabled the edge sound card and installed an its PCIe card instead.

    My TC M51 reads my USB very well now.

  • Install an SSD in a Dell XPS 8300 using a USB stick recovery

    My 1.5 as TB HARD drive crashed and I want to replace it with a 240 GB SSD.  I need to use a USB stick recovery to reinstall Win7 in my XPS8300.  I've heard that I need at least as big a player to use the recovery key.

    I will be able to use the USB stick recovery to install Win7 on a 240 GB SSD?

    I buy the Dell USB's recovery since I did not at the time I bought it in 2011.  So, I see that the 240 GB SSD will work.  Thank you.

  • Don't have a USB thumbdrive - simply plug a new?

    Hi, my USB thumbdrive proceeded after running for a few years.  The ESXi host is still up and running and I do not have a backup of the config.  I understand that it rewrites the config of the USB memory all the ~ 10 or more.  I already rebuilt a new USB thumbdrive with the same version of ESXi running (4.0 U1) so my question is, can I just plug it in and let it write the config on the USB drive, or should I save the config and restore it on the thumbdrive first?  Thank you!

    can I just plug it in and let it write the config on the USB drive, or should I save the config and then restore on the thumbdrive first?

    Hi I think the betting is take backup and then simply plug and let him write, if no output please don't restore the backup.

    Select this check box. It may be useful

    Alternatively, you can try to install the new copy of the Windows operating system using the USB.
    There are a lot of instructions how to do this with Win 7. Just google it

  • Kingston Datatraveler USB Stick allocation size?

    Hi guys,.

    I bought a 16 gb Kingston Datatraveler USB key.

    I want to format and I'm not sure for what unit Allocation size should I choose.
    My options are:

    By default
    4 096 bytes
    8192 bytes
    16 kilobytes
    32 kilobytes
    64 kilobytes

    8192 bytes is selected when I choose the format.

    Any ideas?

    I have the same flash player.  It has formatted FAT32 of a 32K allocation size.  If you format it to NTFS, I would think 4096 would be more effective storage-wise, 8192 might be a little faster.  I don't think you'd go wrong with either, even though I'm perfectly happy to leave mine with FAT32 and 32K.  If I need more space, I will buy a 32 or 64 GB drive.  They are less expensive and less expensive day.  You can get a 32 GB one for $18 and a 32 GB one for $33.

    Good luck.
