Why am I being asked to do another set of recovery disks?

I made the one and only set of recovery disks, following the instructions.

Now, I get an alert in HP Advisor instucting me to make recovery disks.

Why would I receive this alert?

P8, it sounds to me like HP Advisor did not get the message. I would try to make the disks again to see what happens.  If it lets you do, HP Advisor should be satisfied.  If this isn't the case, maybe that will satisfy HPA, also.

    Hey Den,

    Unless the other PC is identical (it is same OS, model No. discs, etc.) then the recovery will not work on PC of your sisters - the disks read one "tattoo" on the bios chip to ensure that they are used on the machine, they were intended.

    However, it there's no reason that you can not install Windows 7 using your installation of the retail disc, and then use the character product activation key 25 on your COA label (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games) sisters.

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    Enter the key when asked and then use the 'phone method' described in the link below to activate the installation...

I have (1) check my CD/DVD drive works (2), I watched the video on how to create a password reset disk (3) I did the procedure successfully in the past on other computers (4) I rebooted the computer after having difficulty finding the opportunity to insert a disk in drive D, the name of the drive for my DVD / CD player. What is the problem?

    The problem is that when I am asked to insert a disc in the player I'd give myself a choice is not drive D, the name of the drive to my CD/DVD drive.
    So over and over again once I wonder to insert the disc. I also have one of these drives you can put 4 holders memory size different from the type used in cameras and I have a DVD player, it is called D drive.  Why I'm not given the option to use drive D when I'm given a choice I can insert a disc so that the password recovery disk can be created?

    Change the assignment of drive letter for the dvd player to one letter other than.

    1. sign the computer as an administrator.

    2. Insert a disk in the removable drive.

    3. type computer management in the start search box and press ENTER.

    4. click on disk management.

    5 right-click the partition, logical drive or volume that you want to change and then clickchange drive letter and paths.

    6. click on the removable drive, click it, clickchange, click the drive letter that you want to use, and then clickOK.

  • I asked before getting a set of recovery discs and how much for my HP Pavilion a6863w!

    Hi, I asked for a set of recovery disc for my HP Pavilion a6863w. He was answered, and have provided a link where to get the recovery disks. However, I was wondering if there was a set of upgrade of these recovery disks that has windows 7 or even 8 windows also. I don't know if it's possible, but I'd rather have atlkeast of windows 7 since hp is obsolete and my HP has Vista but Vista is next on the chopping block to be supported and eventually dropped. Any help and suggestions are welcome. Thank you

    Hello

    Sorry, you can get a HP Win 7 set for your PC recovery disc because it comes with Vista, as the preinstalled operating system.

    Win Vista is supported extended until April 2017. Win 7 is covered until January 2020.

    You will need to purchase an install of Win 7 OEM supplier online disc.

    I have a project with several inside VI.

    Ex:

    Init VI

    Master control panel

    Test panels

    I have to open them and use them regularly, but I only open them and run them, and then close them.

    A vi (VI init) asks me to save every time, however, I havn't made any changes to it.  Anyone has an idea why this happens, or how do stop?

  • Why am I being asked to update my apple ID password?

    So lets get started...

    On my iPhone 6 and 2 Air iPad I have experienced this problem and happens when I turn the two devices off during the night and the following morning. I get two guests when I go into the menu settings (1). Audit of the Apple - ID enter the password to john.deere @... in a frame, with the options of 'Not now' or 'settings '. -"Not now" just takes you to the home screen - when I click on 'settings' it prompts saying "the apple for [email protected] update ID '.

    I can't update my apple ID password, so I'm curious as to why this product. I get my regular apple ID password and a few seconds pass and puts me right back in the regular setting menu. In my view, there is no need to update my apple ID and I wondered what that the * happens! (both devices doing this) except my Macbook. Did some research a few and even called apple.

    My specs:

    MacBook Air (2015) El captain

    IPhone IOS 6 (REG) 9.1

    Air iPad 2 iOS 9.1

    Until now this what I did with no results:

    Called Apple - they said that it is / can be a bug with the software... suggested a complete restoration of the devices - did this.

    Signed in and out iCloud on devices, restart and difficult to start - no luck.

    Connected to iTunes, manage devices, checked to see if something was out of wack - nothing seemed obvious.

    Checked side macbook things with security or anything like that in this sense, until here nothing.

    IF SOMEONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM (S) PLEASE DROP A LINE OR A SUGGESTION.

    Thank you

    You probably have a weak password, and Apple is asking you to change it. The other option is not to put off power at night.

  • Why am I being asked to format my hard drives?

    I have a problem, I asks me to format my drives that I've used, one is a USB that I have used before with the same stick of memory, the other is a memory card reader that I've also used before when transferring my photos, why this happened and how can I stop what I have no other way of transferring my photos?

    If it does not work in two or more computers, he's toast.  Unrecoverable, probably.  You might consider a shop or send in recovering data, but which would cost likely big bucks and no guarantee of success.

  • Why am I being asked for WiFi connection on my Wired iMac?

    So I installed the macOS Sierra point on my iMac and I was at the research/assistance to Siri and cards and noticed that whenever I do something that requires location services, he asked to be connected to WiFi. I don't understand because my iMac is wired to the internet via an ethernet cable. Is there something I'm missing, maybe something I am doing wrong?

    Location Services can be used from a Wi - Fi connection. So anything that need localization service needs a Wi - Fi connection. You can't be located in Ethernet.
