Use the same system recovery disk?

I have exactly the same - HP Pavilion dv6406nr 2 laptops.  I ordered the system recovery disk for one, several months ago.  Can I use the same disk or do I have to order one especially for the 2nd laptop?

Yes, they will work, if the model numbers are the same.

"and on the new VM from the disk file points to the path of the template.  In the store of data info it shows the DS that I chose to place the new virtual machine, but also the DS that stores the model.  I saw the same thing with a model of RHEL 5 and SLES 10.  Thank you.

    You must re-create the model, cause the vmdk file was not duplicated and was used by the virtual machine.

    If you have the same problem again, call VMware to check why it occurs.

  • SOS HELP: Dream color Elitebook 8730w owner seeks the complete system recovery disks

    Dear friends:

    I am tearing my hair looking for the missing original Windows Vista recovery disk and the driver for my laptop HP 8730w dream color version. I bought this little gem of a laptop power PC on Ebay at a fair price. However, research recovery - Discs.com and other similar sites were not successful. Recovery - Discs.com has no one live you can join when you call them and their online registration does NOT work for the Canada addresses ! Other "so-called" recovery disk sites will sell you a disc containing the latest drivers ONLY , and is not the OS, still call their disc a "recovery solution ! Can someone direct me to a solution? I can not even find any information on the site of HP to order a set of replacement of the recovery disks. (??) Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Many thanks in advance,

    You can order recovery media here, or call HP on the phone to order 1-800-474-6836

  • System recovery disks, do not install it on the new drive SDD

    Hello

    I have updated the HARD original SDD disk disk drive.
    First of all, I cloned the old drive and installed the image but then the updates of windows would not work.

    Looking at all the forums and I tried everything I read, but updates still did not work.

    Finally formatted the drive and then used the original system restore disks that work fine on the old hard drive but Windows end retsarting continuously after all 3 disks installed.

    He tried to finish the installation but then gets and error and restarts and loops just over and over again.

    Is this something to do with the 4 k sectors?
    Do I need other drivers?
    How can I factory reinstall my Windows 7 disc new SSHD?

    Thank you

    Hello

    > Finally formatted the drive and then used the original system restore disks that work fine on the old hard drive but end Windows restarts continuously after all 3 installed drives

    Generally, the Toshiba recovery disks should install Toshiba image on the new HARD drive or disc SSD and the unit should start correctly.

    To be honest, I'm not very well why the laptop keeps restarting after the installation of m.
    But I guess it has something to do with the partitions and sizes of the partitions.

    Is that the Toshiba recovery disks would format the drive HARD (or SSD) and create the same partitions and sizes of the partitions.

    In case the installation of the system would not work by using the recovery discs, I would recommend you trying to install the system by using the Microsoft Windows CD clean. The essential drivers may be downloaded from the Toshiba UE driver page.

    and shortly after failure of contact error 1002 HP

  • my computer crashed and restored using the system recovery disk. I saved all the files using a .fbw format. I can't read. What should I do?

    My computer crashed while updating. It's a double 4 year old HP desktop processor. I could get into the repair screen, but nothing would be useful. I backed up data (115 GB) using the tools available on a drive hard usb. They are under the folder MINWIN and meet 31 different files. All I get is the demand to put in the disc. I copied the last file on DVD, but it will not read it. All other recovery programs say there is no backup file.

    Help

    Hello

    1. are you able to boot to the desktop now?

    2 have you tried to reinstall the operating system?
    3. what program did you use to create a backup?
    4. do you get an error code or error message?

    According toOberwald, it seems that fbw files are generated by HP, not Vista backup tool. I suggest you to read the following article to restore files from Microsoft.

    Backup and restore: frequently asked questions:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-and-restore-frequently-asked-questions

    If you are not able to boot to the desktop, then I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:
    Start in safe mode and then try to run the restoration of the system to a point before you install the update and check if the problem persists.
    Step 1: Start in SafeMode in Windows 7:

    Step 2: System Restore:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/products/features/system-restore

    Method 2:

    If you used a third-party program, and then try to restore using the same program and check that it works.

    Also check the FAQ from HP or post the question on a forum of HP.

    Hope the information is useful.

  • When I insert my recovery disk its Blanck, but if I used the same disc in another computer I can see the content inside

    Original title: DVD RW drive

    I'm having a problem with my computer toshiba M645. When I insert my recovery disk its Blanck, but if I used the same disc in another computer I can see the contents inside. I try inserting the disk dvd movies and it will play normally. Please give me help with this problem because I want to get my phone to the sound out of the box state. Thank you.

    Hello

    The drive came with the laptop or you did it yourself in the recovery Partition?

    And you're supposed to boot from the recovery disc to start the recovery process.

    You change the Boot order to make the CD/DVD drive first in the boot order. Then, you start from the disc.

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

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

    And as a way to re - install with most of the Toshibas, you press 0 (zero) to start to start the process of recovery back to settings factory (new State) of the recovery Partition.

    See you soon.

  • System backup Image against the system recovery disks

    Hello

    I'm new to the system recovery things and I have a question...

    I just bought a new computer laptop m7-1015dx of Pavilion and need to do system recovery discs... (which I realize restore laptop to factory default)... BTW, I have already created the system repair disc.

    However, I read an article on creating a system backup Image allowing you to recovery if lost EVERYTHING, all your installed programs, etc.

    First Question:

    Can someone tell me if I do the backup IMAGE of the system...

    Do I still need to create recovery disk (mfg default) system also?

    The second Question:

    If I create system recovery disks can I still this Recovery Partition?

    I am really really wanting to partition my C:\ drive... it is huge

    In addition, I hate to see storage folders involved in system folders...

    Currently using a symbol/character to separate them.

    From now on, I can't partition the C:\drive all partitions are used as... Max is 4

    and I have 4... C:\drive, System Partition, Partition HPTools and recovery Partition.

    Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

    Thanks for the research.

    Best regards, Jenn

    Hi, Jenn:

    I'd certainly recovery disks because in the case of a hard drive failure, a recovery partition is unnecessary because it would be on the failed drive.

    Recovery disks will do the same as a recovery partition. Reinstall the operating system and programs supplied with your laptop.

    I have also copy off the coast of the C:\drive SWSetup folder and store it on a portable hard drive that contains all files Installer provided with your PC (except MS Office 2010 Starter).

    You can also make your own Windows 7 installation disc and have a nice bloatware without installing windows, and then install only the programs you want from the SWSetup folder.

    Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

    You can get rid of all the partitions you want to if you plan to use recovery or disc of Windows 7 installation method that I posted above.

    I write my product key and store them somewhere for more security that many people report that it fades if you keep the laptop on your lap a lot, and then you wouldn't be able to use the alternative method to install W7.

  • The system recovery disk - how do without floppy drive?

    I am trying to create a "system recovery disk" as part of the TOSSHIBA ASSIST (protect and fix the section).

    However, before we proceed, I noted that he was invited to a 'floppy' create a recovery disc but this model without this facility data can be recorded on a CD. I didn't get throughout the procedure and find that I couldn't finish it due to no floppy drive!

    Or otherwise just use the product recovery DVD - Rom supplied with the laptop in case of problem... not sure if this would hold the same data?

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hello Christine

    If you look carefully on this print option (shortcut) it is written to create the CD drivers & tools and in aria info nothing follow description allows to create an external symbol to the top of the caisse de dépôt drivers & tools.

    You use this shortcut, you can simply create Tools & Utilities CD and not the system recovery media. I did a few times without any problem. Equip your optical drive for CD - R, click on this shortcut, click the button BURN.

    All that s!
