HP Recovery Manager - Windows Vista 32 bit (where do I find it?)

Hi, 
I have planned a factory reset for my laptopo, but I have a problem with the software HP Recovery Manager.
When I try to launch the application I have an error message (stpe.dll not found), so I'm trying to reinstall the package but I don't find the link for my operating system (Windows 32 bit).
I tried these:
sp41501: it's an update and it doesn't find a previous version;
sp41949: installation abort; the system isn't supported by this version.
So, where is the right version for my configuration?
Thank you

    I am trying to Perform an HP system recovery (Windows 7) but is not working.
    I press F11 and there is an error:
    obviously I don't have the recovery manager and I also dont have the windows instalation disc, that's why I made a copy in a USB and tryed to install it that way.  The screen shows a Windows BCD store issue. That should'nt be a big issue to resolve
    So, the only solution is to order a recovery disc from HP and then I install the HP recory manager?  It is the best solution.
    by this way after doing that can I  install the windows 7? You can always install Windows 7 as log as you have the twenty five character license activation key.
    Once you have the recovery usb media you can put your notebook back into the state it was in when you removed it from the box whenever there is a serious issue. If Windows 7 was the OS it was delivered with then running the recovery manager and performing a factory image recovery will reinstall Windows 7 and the recovery partition.
    Do yourself the favor of ordering the usb recovery media instead of a recovery disk set. USB recovery media is durable, unlike a recovery disk set, which can be damaged by a simple scratch on the label side.

  • Adobe ps printer driver for windows vista. Where can I get it?

    I need Adobe ps printer driver for windows vista. Where can i get it? Plz help me. If yes, then where and if no, why?
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    The Acrobat printer produces a PS file that is then sent to the Distiller process to create a PDF. The other PPD you mention is something I know nothing about. However, why would you want to use a different driver? The Adobe PDF driver is optimized for use in creating PDF files and other routes may not produce as good of a result. If the other PPD produces a PDF, then why are you asking about the Adobe driver?

  • My Windows Vista Computer is unable to find any AirPort wireless devices

    My Windows Vista computer is unable to find any AirPort wireless devices.   I just set this up using another (different) computer and it works fine on that one...

    Per chance was the other computer that was able to "find" the AirPort base station another Win Vista device or another using another OS?

    Thank you.
    Your answer led me to the notes I was seeking.
    When I looked at the bottom of the left side in outlook I did not see any icon but I saw a little arrow.
    When I clicked on that it I was able to specifiy that I wanted an icon for notes.
    When I added the icon, I was able to click on the icon and find my notes.

  • Getting error code 0x400110020000100b while doing system recovery for windows vista 32 bit.

    I attempted to do a system recovery on my Laptop using the included recovery discs and got this error 0x400110020000100B. THe disc looked pretty beat so last week I ordered a new set. Now when I got to put disc 2 in (at 80% complete) I get the same error.  I called customer support and he took me through the F9 process to no avail and I've also tried the F11 approach which got me no where.  I'm frustrated because I really don;t have the money for a new laptop.
    Laptop is a HP Pavilion DV6700.

  • Recovery Manager / Windows 8 / Failing to restore / discs purchased from HP

    Last week I purchased a set of recovery discs directly from HP.com. Before this my laptop was running perfectly fine, no issues at all. I purchased the discs in hope of restoring my laptop to its factory settings. After receiving the first set of discs I inserted the first disc and powered my laptop down and then powered it back up. I then proceeded to follow the instructions presented in the interface. I noticed when I got to the 4th disc, the "Application and Driver Recovery DVD", that the image was not taking at all. After such I received the following message in Recovery Manager: "In most cases, recovering the hard drive will fix your problems. If your problems continue, you may need to contact HP Support. Find HP Support contact information in your PC documentation".
    From there I clicked on the "finish" tab that resulted in the laptop powering down but not rebooting. So I powered it back up manually where I received the infamous "Boot Device Not Found / Please install an operating system on your hard disk / Hard Disk (3F0) / F2 System Diagnostics" message. I was immediately alarmed. I proceeded to repeat the system recovery instructions once again. These were the instructions provided by HP along with the recovery discs.
    Once again I received the same messages, the same results. So I immediately contacted HP support. The first agent I spoke to acted as if he had never heard of the "Boot Device Not Found" problem, which I now know is very common with HP notebooks. He diagnosed the problem as faulty recovery discs, thus he had a new set expedited to my home. I received them a few days later, the exact same set of discs and instructions. Of course I was feeling weary about things at this point. And as I expected I received the exact same results as I did with the prior set of discs.
    So once again I contacted HP support where they looked into other problems, such as the health of my HDD. But the HDD passed both the quick check and the extensive check. Like I stated earlier, before I started the recovery process with the HP discs I had no problems with my laptop at all, including my HDD. So the agent had me go through the BIOS solution that I have seen others use on here, where legacy mode is enabled. This solution to failed.
    I've also tried resetting the BIOS to it's default settings. I've also carefully removed my HDD and reseated it nice and snug. After doing so I ran the diagnostic tool, and once again the HDD passed with flying colors. HP support finally suggested, as I was already expecting, for me to have the laptop sent off to them to have it repaired. This is not an option. It was a perfectly running machine before I ran the recovery discs and it should be the same now. 
    But one thing I did notice from the get go, after receiving the first set of discs, and researching what the interface of the recovery manager should look like (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03489643), was the fact that the interface established by the windows 8 recovery discs that I received, look nothing like that found on the HP support site. It also never gave me the option, like it states in the instructions that were provided with the discs, to select either a "Factory Reset" or a "File Backup Program". The system recovery instructions are dated as Second Edition: March 2014 but the 3 operating discs are dated 2012 with the Driver disc being dated 2014.
    Like I stated before, after running all 3 operating discs through, without interuption, the Driver disc does nothing when asked if I have a supplemental disc. With that all being said, has anyone ever been provided the wrong set of recovery discs directly from HP? Or do you know of another solution that might solve my dilema? Any help or suggestions would be sincerely appreciated.
    I'm just wondering if I might have received a set of discs intended for let's say a desktop system running Windows 8 instead of the ones needed for a laptop.
    The following is the name and part # of the discs that I received: "System Recovery DVD Windows 8 Recovery Media for Windows 8 Products". 1st disc: 708664-001, 2nd disc: 708665-001, 3rd disc: 708666-001, 4th disc (Application and Driver): 712189-B26.

    Did the replacement disks work? I have the exact same problem, hours on the phone, no solution except send to them with more money
    Nope. I gave up trying to get real support and a resolution from them. You'd think they would have at least a few local American reps to communicate with, but I guess HP is too **bleep** cheap to pay a few extra bucks to hire such people!
    Anyhow I took a different route in restoring my operating system, thanks to an individual on another tech site. He gave me a link to an ISO file that at least got me back up and running.
    And don't, whatever you do, send them anymore money. It's a complete ripoff, complete sham. After, like I mentioned in one of my earlier posts, communicating hours after hours with HP support over this matter I was told I would receive a full refund, even though the discs sold to me originally had already blown out my Windows 8 operating system. I reluctantly agreed. I just didn't want to deal with them anymore. Over a week had passed and I saw that my credit card had still not been credited like I had been promised by the HP rep. So I called back to see what was going on with it.
    Once again I was put through the ringer, told to call this and that number, connected over and over with different Indian reps. Finally one, after speaking with her supervisor, told me I would NOT be receiving a refund because I had received and used the discs. I finally stopped being polite at this point. I blew up on the phone! These effers admittedly sent me the "copied wrong" discs not once, but 3 freaking times! Thus blowing out my operating system! Prior to being told I would receive a 100% refund, I offered to go directly to the HP distribution center where the discs originated from. Ironically it's only about 40 miles from my home. I just wanted to take my laptop there with me to find the correct software to restore my operating system. But they, the HP reps, would not allow such. Complete BS!
    Thankfully I was able to contact my credit card company and was able to dispute the charge. When I told the "American" rep that I was having a problem with HP he started chuckling. He pretty much told me that HP was one of the most disputed companies out there. He took care of everything for me. I was able to get a full refund for the time being.
    I will never buy another HP product again. And this is coming from someone who has not only an HP laptop but a 2 year old desktop as well, and not too mention my HP printer. After this ordeal they, HP, will never get a dime from me again!

  • Recovery Manager Windows 10

    Having Upgraded to windows 10 from Windows 7 Home Edition, I am also planning to upgrade my hardware (memory 4G>8G and an SSD).  The SSD being a bit smaller in capacity(240gigs) than my installed drive (441 C drive +19.69 D recovery partition or about 461 gigs), I am trying to eliminate anything unneeded on the drive.  I wanted to create a recovery disk &/or image on one of my NAS drives so that I can safely delete the D partition, but cannot find the HP Recovery Manager.  I have learned that many people are finding that the Recovery Manager is blocked in Windows 10 because of an expired security certificate, but I can't even find the Recovery Manager.  I'm probably going to stick with Windows 10, but I want to err on the side of caution and keep a way to recover my  system, just in case.  I could create an image of my whole system myself and save it to an .iso file on one of my 2T hard drives, but I'd like to be able to use the HP Recovery Manager if at all possible.  Is it?

    Recovery partiton contains windows 8.1 - It will create only recovery of windows 8.1 even if you install Windows 10 or 8 or 7.The windows 10 copy that you will get is from microsoft and not HP and its free.so if you ever need to re-install, you will have to install windows 8.1 and then perform the upgrade again. You can also download the win10 ISO and burn it to a disc or create a bootable USB Flash Drive to install from and use your microsoft account to activate win10.

  • 0xc000025 - Trying Recovery System via Recovery Manager: Windows failed to start.

    Name: Pavilion dv4-2161nr
    Prod. Number: WA691UA#ABA
    Windows 7  64-bit
      I splitted original Hard Disk Partition in three partitions.  I formatted those two not containing O.S.  Now I want to format the partition containing the O.S.
      1)  If I choose "Recovery System", will it format all three partitions?  Or will it format the partition I choose to?
      2)  I tryed "Recovery System", but it failed.  What can I do?
         2.1)  I made Recovery DVDs when first used the PC.  It loads but it never runs.  It's like theres no AutoRun, and there's no ".exe" to execute when I open the first DVD Recovery via Windows Explorer.  What am I missing?
         2.2)  I tryed Recovery System via Recovery Manager.  System shuts down and starts reiniciating but it gives the following message "Windows Boot Manger: Windows failed to start.  A recent hardware of software change might be the problem.  Status: 0xc000025.  The boot selection failed because a required device is inacessible".  What can I do?
         Regards,
         Rafael.

    I tested the Hard Drive and it passed 100% ok.
    I tested the Memory and it passed 100% ok.
    My PC runs a Win 7 Home Premium.
    I've just run a Win 7 Ultimate CD Installation.  It formatted the System Partition, but I couldn't get Win 7 installed because when I filled in my Product Key it said the Product Key wasn't right.  Is it because Product Key for Win 7 Home Premium wouldn't work on a Win 7 Ultimate installation?
    I hoped the Hard Drive would be ok after it had been formatted while I tryed Win 7 Ultimate installation.  So I tryed once again to boot with HP Recovery Disc.  It stopped at 23% once again.  Until 23% there are all noises that get me thinking PC is running ok.  When it get up to 23% all noises just stop.
    Any ideias?
    And thanks once again.

  • Installed CS3 with windows vista bit AE won't open.

    When my old faithful computer motherboard fried, I had to get a new computer with Windows Vista Home Premium.
    I had CS3 loaded and working without a glich on my old XP computer.
    I've loaded the whole CS3 suite, but when I open After Effects nothing happens. Using Window's Task Manager, under "Applications" After Effects doesn't show up as a running but under "Processes" the file "AfterFX.exe *32" is listed as running.
    I've also tried uninstalling CS3 and reinstalling it in the directory "Program Files" rather than in the directory "Program Files (x86)" and nothing changed.
    I've tried to opening all the other programs in CS3 with the similar results. Nothing opens, but their .exe files are listed under Task Managers "Processes".
    I'm using this as a vol lic product, so I'm not sure how much tech support I can get.
    Thank you for any help you can give me.

    I'm sorry it didn't work. I probably don't have an answer for you since I'm not an expert or anything.
    One thing I thought was weird was that the software version on my computer for the motherboard was version 6.xx (whatever) and the software I downloaded from the HP web was version 5.xx (whatever). It made it work though..
    I think the update would be on the HP site, not the MSI site. Go to hp.com, downloads, and put in the name of your computer. Download/install whatever motherboard software they have. If that doesn't work, go to the adobe website and search for the document kb402213 and work through that. It's what the person you give Adobe $40 to help you is going to do.
    Good luck. Hopefully this helps.

  • WEP # for 128 Bit; where do I find it?

    I recently bought a Logitech internet radio (Squeeze Box). I have an Airport Extreme. In setting the radio up to recognize my wireless network, it's asking for a "WEP Key". Where do I find this? I have the Airport set up as 128 bit WEP, so I think the number should be 26 digits. Can anyone help??

    When you setup the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) for WEP, you used the WEP Transitional Security Network which uses a 13-character password. For non-AirPort devices to connect, you just need to determine the Equivalent Network Password, and then use this password in the settings for the Squeeze Box.
