• Satellite L505 - 10K - unexpected error when using recovery disc creator

  Toshiba Satellite L505 - 10 k

  Can't do any recovery disk when I open the toshiba recovery media creator, it says: an unexpected error has occurred. Close the program and then restart it (error code: 0D00F6-49-00000015) and then I click ok and then, it is once again and then I click ok and it is once again and I click ok and then the program comes and when I create the disc it comes to audit, but then it says: cannot read the following file. E:------Boot-fonts-chs_boot.ttf (error code: 02015-20-00000000).

  I really need help, I'm afraid something will happen to my computer, so is there someone who knows something about this kind of problem?

  Grateful for your help.

  Hi putte32,

  To be honest I never received this error before but it sounds like that recovery creator disc doesn t work properly... You should try a HDD recovery to restore the factory settings. Maybe you are able to create the recovery disk.

  Otherwise, I would contact an authorized service provider. If you can t create the recovery disk, the guy should be able to help you to complete this procedure.

• Satellite A55-S106 A:/ghost error when using recovery discs to reinstall the OS

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A55-S1065 that I recently replaced the hard drive, and when I try to use the recovery disks it keeps failing at various points with the A:/ghost error, even if this machine is not a drive A

  I really need help can anyone?

  Hello

  Have you used a compatible HDD and supported?
  A bit of problems of recovery happens sometimes due to hard drives not supported.

  In any case, in my experience, new hard disks must be formatted too.
  The Toshiba Recovery CD contains only an image file and I would recommend formatting the HARD drive, first with the help of another like WinXP or Linux bootable CD...

• using recovery discs

  I have a compaq S3100AN computer that I got from a friend. I formatted the hard drive and I want to use the recovery discs, he did to restore the system.  When I get to the second disc, it stops at APP\i386\APP31322.exe and runs over and over again trying to get the file. After a few minutes it will say abandoned or stop or something similar.

  I did once and managad to continue with other drives up to the arrival, but when I tried to restart the computer, it says it could not find the operating system and would not start.  I tried again with the same result but this time I can't go beyond disk 2 and it works for a while before getting an abortion without continuing on request. When he finally to have an abortion, it has two options, yes or no.  Which one should I click to bypass this file and continue on?

  Then towards the end of disk 5 or 6 it says error2: \preload\windows w32 missing and later, it says error 2:\C:\windows\cache\mbr.dll missing.  Maybe that's why it wouldn't start when it ended.  These are on CD - R discs, so I can't change all the files or change them, do you have any idea what I can do about it.

  I just install windows home edition from a cd of windows but it does not install the compaq drivers and, even if it starts successfully, if I restart it will lose all the necessary drivers for the video card and network etc, so that it operated on 16 colors and does not connect to the internet.

  Any help would be appreciated, thank you, Allan

  Allen,

  Just follow what Paul said of the to do and everything should be OK.

  If you still want to try the recovery disks, make sure that they are free of scratches, grease and finger prints. Who can help solve the difficulties of the disc to these problem spots. (Not recommended, but I found that using a very soft automotive polishing compound that is approved for use on plastic/plexiglas works well to clean a CD or DVD)

• Upgrade SSD using recovery discs: warnings?

  I would like to start by saying that I am pretty technology-challenged, then kindly appreciate if authors of response could use short and simple words with me.

  I have a 8460p with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit Elitebook. I want to upgrade my HARD drive of 320 GB for a 500 GB SSD. Instead of my current HARD drive cloning, I decided to do a new installation on the new SSD. I don't have a Windows 7 disc, but fortunately, HP includes a recovery with any purchase of Elitebook disc.

  However, I have read elsewhere that using a recovery on a disc SSD is a bad idea because it will lead to "problems of alignment." Well, to tell you the truth, I have no idea what this means, but it sounds bad.

  Yes, I wonder if it is safe to put in my SSD boot on my recovery disk and install Windows 7 like that.

  On an unrelated note, I read a lot of guides on the installation and optimization of SSDS. They say all the different things, which is a little intimidating. (Some people even say to ignore that these guides because many of them were written long ago, back when SSD was still in their infancy, and SSD of today do not need to be optimized.)

  In any case, is one of the things that all the guides say to use the AHCI mode, which is an option that I'm supposed to be able to find in my BIOS (I haven't checked, so I do not know!). My question is: when I should change it to AHCI mode? Before leaving my old HDD and installing my SSD? Or after putting in the SSD? Everything I know about AHCI is that it is supposed to make the SSD run faster.

  Thanks for all the helpful tips!

  Clarissa

  BIOS of your laptop are already set to default AHCI, you need not worry about this. Problems with SSDS come to use a SSD that is smaller than the smallest drive available on the series. In such cases, the recovery discs are confused. You propose to use a 500 GB SSD, so it shouldn't be a problem. Personally, I wouldn't do the factory restore. Instead, you can download an OEM of Windows 7 version that corrresponds to your license. Is - this Windows 7 Professional? It must be the same version, because you will use the key Code on the bottom of your laptop to turn it on. This is a link to download a completely legal, correct recovery disk OEM Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit:

  http://MSFT.digitalrivercontent.NET/win/X17-24281.ISO

  It is an .iso. This can be burned to a DVD disc can be used. Return ticket if you have questions, but Windows 7 with a disk image utility that should allow you to do or a software like Nero burning also will burn an .iso on a disc. You can't just burn the .iso to a disk image file. It has integrated Service Pack 1 so you can avoid this first huge update. You can copy the laptop hard drive swsetup folder and it will have all the drivers and software pre-installed. You can also use Windows Easy Transfer to create a file that will restore the files and the browser settings and preferences. If you need assistance.

• I can't recover my system (DV6000) using recovery discs after replacing the card mother/HARD drive

  I have a DV6408nr (windows vista Home premium) I had to replace the motherboard and hard drive. When installing the new motherboard (same part No.: 443775-001) and insert the recovery (bought from HP) discs that I have, I received an error message stating that the PC could not be recovered using my disks. The serial numbers on the label service and in my bios do not match. When I entered the serial number of my bios in HPpartsurfer, he said that the system is a DV6449us. I already checked my RAM and HARD drive is brand new/not formatted. I used these recovery discs (manufacturer: 483905-003/483906-003) successfully before on other flags of DV series. Is there a reason why these discs should not work on two motherboards in the same system with these similar specs? What should I do to get my system recovered?

  The number of the motherboard and other show information in the bios of the new Commission?

  The numbers do not match the recovery disks or information is missing in the bios.

  If it's really a mismatch, then you will need to find the good recovery disks or use a Dell installation disk operating system and use the product key from the sticker on the laptop to get activated, and then manually install the drivers.

  If the bios tattoo is damaged or missing information only a used HP Center can then fix the tattoo.

• Satellite 1800-400: CD Rom is not working / can't use recovery discs

  Hello

  I have a satellite 1800-400. The cd present in Device Manager, but it does not recognize the cd is in the drive. I need to use the recovery cdsas the system was damaged virus etc. Is there a way I can work around the problem of cd player.

  Thank you

  Hugues.

  Hi Hugh,.

  When you try to start the laptop from the CD made in fact tru to access the CD-ROM or it directly boot from HARD drive?

  If the notebook is actually an attempt to boot from the CD but do not then it can mean that you CD-ROM is defective or that the recovery disc itself is damaged in some way.

• System Restore Win7 without success using recovery discs

  I have a Vaio VPCCW23FX under Windows 7 Home Premium. My original hard drive Vaio is dying (after a little more than 2 years). I tried to create recovery discs from my laptop, but that the process has failed. Sony support said that my recovery partition must have gotten corrupted and I need to buy the discs at home. Very well, I did. I also bought a new Western Digital 1 TB portable hard drive (same cache size and speed as the drive in the laptop, just more storage space). I WAS able to create a disc Image system to my laptop, even if I couldn't create recovery discs.

  The new hard drive installation was quick and easy and I had no problem. The process of recovery has been unsuccessful to date, however. It seems TO be going smoothly and successfully and run all 4 disks and nine copied files on the hard drive. I get to the end and it is said to remove the disk and restart the computer to complete the installation.

  As it is start I see some messages that look like this market (including the update of the register, installation of devices). Then at the bottom it says: 'The Installer applies system settings' and an error message box is displayed. It is said: "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer." The only option is to click OK, how the computer restarts.

  When the computer restarts after this error message, the same things happen but I get a new error message: "Windows cannot complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, run the Setup again. "Again, the only option is to click OK, that makes the computer to restart, which makes this error message displayed, etc.

  I can hit F8 as soon as the VAIO appears logo and a menu of Windows recovery. I can boot into safe mode, I can choose to go in recovery mode, I can even get to a command prompt and see what is on the drive.

  There is a good bit of information on the disc (about 20 GB or more, if I remember correctly). Based on the directories that are here, it SEEMS like Windows is there and should work... but it doesn't and it won't tell me why.

  I can run the Startup Repair, and he tells me that it can not detect a problem. She even said, "State the start indicates that the OS booted successfully."

  I tried to put in the System Image disc I created, but the Startup Repair and recovery system do not seem to recognize it.

  I have screenshots of the various messages and info from the command prompt. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. Again, what are the recovery discs for Windows 7 that I ordered directly from Sony, own my laptop model, and the only difference in the computer, it is that I bought a 1 TB drive to replace the dying 500 GB drive.

  Thank you in advance.

• replacement hard drive and using recovery discs made by myself.

  HPdv6 mobile 2119tx. After replacing hard drive and loading the recovery discs (which I did) successfully, now it reboot something messages cannot locate the disc or load bootable disc (sorry, don't remember the exact wording, but back to the beginning). Could this be because I replaced a 650 GB drive with a 500 GB drive.

  Hello:

  Normally you cannot use recovery on a smaller hard disks.

  But you should be able to boot from the first disc of recovery at least and see what happens.

  To do this, you must have the first disc in your dvd player.

  Restart the PC and at the beginning of your homescreen HP, tap key ESC then choose one time start in the menu.  Since then, select the DVD drive and continue.

  If the ESC key method does not work, press the F9 key instead.

  It depends on the type of BIOS in your PC (normally according to his age) which key you need to type.

  You can create the recovery disk using the Toshiba recovery disc creator!
  This tool must be preinstalled on your laptop if the laptop was equipped with HARD drive recovery option.

  You can also try to restore the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive option.
  You must press the F8 key during switching on laptop and I then have to choose the option called fix my computer. Then new window should open, and you could choose the Toshiba recovery.

  If you cannot use the two procedures (disk recovery HARD and Toshibas recovery disk) then you can order the new CD from here:

• Using recovery discs that have been put in place on another PC

  I have 3 computers HP Compaq Pro SFF x 6200.

  I have only created a disk of recovery for one of them.

  Now, I need to restore the other two PC (they no longer have the available recovery partition).

  How is the Windows 7 numbe series registrations affected if I restore this way or if it is not serious. Should I do a sort of regstry edit to change the serial number later?

  Thank you

  Monk

  One set of "Recovery disc" made on a specific model / product number should work on any other computer in the same exact model / product number. While each computer can have a unique Windows product key on the COA affixed to the computer, this key is not used by HP to activate Windows.

  HP and all the other major computer manufacturers generally use a system known as OEM SLP (System locked pre-ignition). This system allows many (dozens or hundreds of thousands) computers to be preactivated by using the same exactly OEM SLP key and OEM SLP certificate with a corresponding SLIC table in BIOS of the computer.

  You don't need to change anything, because that's the way the process is designed.

• USB stick not recognized when creating recovery disc in Windows 8.

  Original title: Recovery Media Creator prblem

  Hello-I have a desktop K430 Lenovo with a 1 to HDD, Win8 64 b, 12 GB of memory. I'm trying to create a recovery disc using a flash drive HP with 32 GB. I bought a 2 GB Tech Universe that should do the job, but the Recovery Media Creator suggest 16 GB.

  I installed USB Flash Drive 32 GB HP which is identified as HPv125w (F): the computer and selected for how to manage the unknown data or take any Action. I formatted the Flash Drive ENF to match my file system. I also chose computer /Devices removable and open as portable devices in the hope that the flash player would be recognized by the Recovery Media Creator, but it didn't happen.

  I run the following command to create a Recovery flash drive:

  Control Panel/All Control Panel Items/Recovery/create a recovery disk/copy the recovery partition from the pc on the recovery drive (I checked this assertion). I clicked NEXT to continue the process.  I was instructed to connect a USB and the reader must be able to contain at least 16 GB. He also said that everything on the disk is deleted. Identity of the flash player (HPv125w (F) does not appear on the page of recovery media and THEN is grayed out. I need help with this problem.  After checking the Microsoft Community, I learned that I could use search from the start page or opening of office and enter recoverydrive.exe and make appear the Recovery Media Creator. I performed this task once again, but I got the same results, as shown above. Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Download and create the bootable CD as described at the link below.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=PV-80183-1&cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en

  When you created this CD, insert it into the system that fails to start, restart, and wait until you see a window with a green check mark.  Next, remove the CD and insert your first recovery DVDs.  Reboot the PC and go through the process of installing the operating system again.  If all goes well, it should install properly this time.

• After installing the new hard drive and using recovery discs, I get this message could not start because the following file is m issing or damaged system32\drivers\pci.sys

  I just replaced my hard drive with a new because the other HD said imminent failure or something like that!

  Hello panjok2,

  Sometimes recovery CD are dependent on the architecture of a hard drive.  If it is different from the original disc, then we have problems.

  In this case, the best thing you could do is contact HP and see if this is the case.  If it is not why this happens, they should be able to help you as well because they are the ultimate authority on their recovery process.

  Let us know if you have any questions.

  Best regards
