Vista recovery

I used the HP recovery program to save on 6 discs.  Now that I have the computer in the back, I got disc 1, select run, but nothing happens.

It is a process of HP, not Microsoft.

Pressing f11 start HP Recovery Manager or HP Backup Recovery Manager, according to which the software is installed on your computer. If you or the other of these programs to backup your files, you can easily restore them using the same program. Please note that the restore process may take between 20 and 40 minutes to start. Please do not close the restore file Recovery Manager program after starting the restore process.
During the HP Recovery Manager backup operation, a folder named MINWINPC was created on the USB storage device. Inside of this file is an executable file named backup.exe. If you have saved a large number of files, it may be also one or more additional backup with the extension .fbw files.

If you have used the program Microsoft Backup and Restore Center to backup your files, you must use Microsoft Backup and Restore Center to restore your files. You cannot use HP Recovery Manager or HP Backup and Recovery Manager to restore the files created with Microsoft Backup and Restore Center. Please see section file restore of laptops HP - use Windows backup basic and food to back up files in Vista Center for more information about how to restore your files with Windows backup and Restore Center.

  • Portege R600 Vista Recovery disk

    Hello world

    Is a possible way to recovery vista recover disk from toshiba?

    I have the recovery disk xp that comes with my toshiba r600, but is there a way to get the toshiba vista recovery disk? Download? or something?
    I didn't create drive recovery with vista... so is he lost? I do not really need vista OS but just in case, is it possible to recover it?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    What OS came preinstalled on your Portege R600?
    Was it Vista?

    If so there should be an option that allows you to create a recovery disk.
    You can use the preinstalled called creator Toshiba Recovery disk which is able to create the recovery disk.

    But if you have already formatted the HARD drive then you will not be able to create this disc of recovery :(

    In this case, you should check this page:

    Hello

    Maybe you should correctly format the drive and delete all partitions with an external program (like UBCD-> "Ultimate Boot CD") and then try again.

    It may be that the XP recovery partition blocks the new recovery/installation process.

    If I were you, I would try this format-thingy.

    If not, take another HARD disk and try with that. ;)

  • Vista recovery disks do not display TOSHIBA HDD Recovery option

    Back to school for 4 children with laptops is a pain, he seems to be constantly before wipe them and their establishment again.

    Any ideas why the Vista recovery disks do not display TOSHIBA HARD drive recovery option?

    I made a USB key and copied all the files from a backup of the Recvery drive to it. The USB displays the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery option but calls for the disks and will not run the recovery of the USB itself. It's annoying, but at least I can still use it to recover the machine.

    I would like to be

    the problem with discs

    or

    get the USB key to retrieve by using its own files instead of asking for the disks. Vista was not created with the option to recover from USB, so maybe I can't.

    HARD drive recovery option appears not in the advanced boot menu if something has been changed or modified on the HARD disk and the flag was removed.
    For example, this may be the case if the partition has been changed, modified or if HARD drive recovery files or folder has been changed, moved, or deleted.

    In case you want to recover the computer laptop back to factory settings, you must use the recovery disk

  • Extract Vista recovery DVDs

    Hi, I would like to know (before you try) if it is possible for "extract" the Vista version of my restore disk, if so please post a clue on how to start.
    If this isn't the case, would it be possible to use the recovery disk without changing my Partitions.

    After the first installation, I changed the size of the disk partition to a more than useful setting instead of divide 160 GB in two parts. It is, when you use recovery 'as-is' my partitions are back from the original size. Pls post for help here, there must be a way to NOT lose all data after Vista hangs or crashes.

    Thanks in advance, Tuurtje

    Hello

    As MrPacman mentioned, the Toshiba Vista recovery DVDs can not be extracted. The image on the recovery CD file is secure and I know it s not possible to open it using a tool like for example; Norton Ghost.

    The use of recovery DVDs will format the whole HARD disk and re-create the hidden Vista recovery partition and the system on the HARD drive partition.
    Simply said, the recovery CD redefines the laptop to factory settings.

    So, if you have important data and files on the HARD drive, backup it first before recovering.

  • Win 7 - Vista Recovery

    The release of Win 7 in October, a clean install will be necessary, who will rub Vista.

    It will be possible, if you wish, to return to Vista, using the DVD (s) recovery or the recovery partition?

    It will be necessary to repeat the recovery DVD creation, before win 7 install in order to get the last status of Vista?

    Thank you very much
    GB

    Hello

    I doubt anyone here can give you accurate answers to your questions.
    On Win7 and Win7 update right now, you can read under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/home/ > click on the Windows 7 upgrade window.

    I also heard that Win7 is expected in October, but in the past, that the release time was often changed. In any case, I believe that Win7 will be on the market before Christmas. It is well known that for Christmas time new notebooks will be offered with the new operating system.

    If you now for laptop with Vista and recovery DVDs created, you can use any time to reinstall Vista. Using this recovery DVDs you'll new factory settings.

    This question having the status of Vista is interesting. Obviously you misunderstood something.
    Using "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" you will always have the same Vista recovery image, and it has nothing to do with the status of Vista.

    If you got laptop with Vista SP1 (factory State) and now you have updated to SP2 after using "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" you Vista SP1 as the first day. "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" is not a friendly image maker for the back of the current state. Original Toshiba recovery image is recorded on the second partition and this tool simply create recovery DVD with the saved files. Nothing else.

    If you want to change OS please create recovery DVDs. Many people save folder HDDRecovery on external HARD drive and hope that it can be used for the installation of Vista later. It will not work.

  • Windows Vista recovery disc

    I can't load the Windows Vista recovery disks (3 in total).  The Recovery Manager has not opened.  I went up to step 3 only.  I guess the restore disc (CD 1) failed.

    Hello:

    Sometimes the recovery disks do not work for one reason or another.

    If you can still read all 25 characters of the Vista product key on the COA Microsoft sticker on the bottom of your PC, you can do your own Vista installation disc that should at least get an operating system reinstalled on your PC.

    Here's how:

    If you are in a fault light but rewarding you can do yourself if you can read your product key of Vista on the PC of 25 characters.

    You just download the 3 files you need on the link below and read all the instructions to create a Setup bootable DVD disk using imageburn.

    Do not take into account the part of the text in the first screen shot about "extract the files in the folder of Vista."

    The files were extracted already in this folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screenshot.

    The other thing I noticed is on the 4th page, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in me, and then the other codes already filled in.

    When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message on a WIM file, file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.

    I selected no, make the ISO file.

    It was not so hard to do. I burned both the disk of 64-bit and 32-bit disk in case I ever need them.

    I tested both of them on my hp dc7100 CMT PC desktop computer, they worked perfectly.

    When you enter the product key, he knows which version of Vista you have.

    After you install Vista successfully, you can then install the drivers for your PC and driver page support.

    Update:  This is the new link to your own Vista installation media.

    Click on the link below and then click on the link PDF Guide of reinstalling Windows.

    Follow the instructions on pp 295-297.

  • VISTA recovery failed

    Have Compaq CQ60-410US and VISTA stop working.  Could not get at all, just kept rebooting.  Downloaded VISTA recovery disc, all the controls have been OK, but it was no help.  Recovery disk used to access the command prompt and reformatted disk.  Tried using the XP Pro installation disc, but he could start at all.  What can I do now? Seems to be a good hard drive, but can't put the top OS.  Did not come with VISTA installation discs.

    Use DVD + R, usually only requires only 2-3.

  • cannot restore the system with the Vista recovery disc, computer stuck in step 3 of 3 loop

    Hi all

    My computer has been blocked in the formidable step 3 of 3 loop. I followed the advice of Mr. Murphy and created the Vista recovery disk. I loaded it and followed the instructions. Everything was fine. I chose a 5 days ago restore point, and it went well until he must "finalize the restoration of files...". ». That's where he stayed - it would not be completed. I tried the restore points different, all with the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try to make with her startup repair.

    With this CD, you can also do a startup repair of your Vista OS with it.

    If she can't do a startup repair and system restore has failed, it is time to consider doing a re-install of the Vista operating system.

    See you soon.

  • Neosmart of VISTA recovery disk

    Tried to use it to start Vista to allow me to join the office so I can either do a system restore or format and reinstall Vista. Have Acer Aspire M1100 which is formatted by the departure of John. Booted from the recovery disk, choose repair your computer, it searches the operating system and finds Vista. He then seek out problems and then asks if you want to do a system restore, choose YES, but then it goes back to the repair attempt going on and so on and gets me nowhere. Please can someone tell me where I'm wrong if I understand correctly that this disc has obtained a large number of people out of trouble. Thank you

    NeoSmart is NOT a relocation of the disc.

    It will attempt to repair your boot files of the system, not the files of your operating system.

    If it will not get Vista running, you need to reinstall Vista.

    http://www.Acer.com/worldwide/support/index.htm

    Contact Acer on how to use the recovery Partition, or ask them to send you a set of Vista recovery disk.
    You can try pressing Alt + F10 to see if that will start the process of recovery from the factory.

  • How to make a windows vista recovery partition

    Hi I have a windows vista desktop computer and I need to do a recovery partition. There is currently no a. How can I make one? My computer has slowed down at the stop and I need recovered

    Hello

    You can't do a recovery Partition.

    A recovery partition is copied onto your hard drive from the computer manufacturer at their factory.

    If you do not have to purchase recovery disc are to make sure that you do not have alreasdy have a recovery hard disk Partition?

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
