I'm unable to recover Windows 8 from recovery media.

I am trying to do a system factory restore and have been unable to do so and am getting frustrated.
By the way I'm using the Thinkpad Twist s230u with Windows 8.0
Here is what I have done so far...
1) Created recovery disk on a USB drive (I don't have any CD/DVD on this laptop).
2) Rebooted and pressed F-11 to start recovery mode
3) Chose my language and keyboard
4) Selected "Troubleshoot" and "Reset PC"
5) Selected "Target - Windows 8"
At this point, I get the message "Insert Windows Install or recovery media."
I insert the USB disk.
I get the message "Media inserted is not valid."
6) So I backtrack to "Troubleshoot".  Instead of "Reset PC" I choose "Advanced Options"
7) I choose "System Image Recovery"
Now I get the message "Windows cannot find system image"
WTH?  I am sure that the USB media was created correctly and the recovery partition is intact on HDD 2 (Windows Disk Management shows the recovery partiation as "Hard Drive 2").  I try to browse for an image and it' asking me for a driver that has system info?  I can't get it to find the recovery partition, and it doesn't look like the USB disk has enough information to restore an entire OS.

I believe I have solved this problem by using a partition manager, making a copy of the recovery partition to the primary drive. Then "reset pc" seemed to recognize it.

  • Re: How to install Windows from recovery media on a new hard drive?

    Immediately after a Windows update, my computer would not restart. It said disk error.
    I could not start it from the recovery media and F8 would not work. I bought and installed a new hard drive. Now when I put in the recovery media to install Windows on the new hard drive, it gives an error message.
    What can this be? Should I be able to install Windows from the recovery media?
    It is Windows 7 and the laptop is Satellite A500, 64 bit.

    Hello
    Generally speaking you can install recovery image on every compatible HDD so thee should not be any problem about it.
    Please tell us what happen when you start recovery installation. Which error message is shown?
    Is new HDD recognized in BIOS. Before you start recovery installation set BIOS to default settings.

  • T410 Windows 7 Recovery Media 64bit from Lenovo will not boot

    I have been sent 4 sets of Windows 7 Recovery Media from Lenovo over the past week and a half. These DVDs are unusable as they will not boot because they were created as non-bootable DVDs. When looking at the DVDs, they all just have 1 file on them - 0A44006.dvd.  I was sent a set of the 32bit version and it has multiple files on it with Bootmgr and 6 directories and will boot just fine. The 64bit DVDs obviously were created and replicated without any of these files to make it a bootable DVD. Can someone from Lenovo (Morristown, NC) find out why and fix these DVDs. The support center in Atlanta can only order another set from Morristown and I keep getting bad DVDs.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    There's probably a way to make a bootable DVD out of that file.  If all have the same file you will probably still be missing a DVD or two - unless the contents of the files in a set are different.  Then again if it "1 of 1" is correct this may be all you need.
    You can try a couple of things (just pulling this out w/out much thought...):
    Use 7zip and extract the contents to <somewhere> and then burn that as a DVD.  Probably still won't be bootable, though.  Or just use your favorite image burning tool (nero, Win 7's built in burner, whatever) and burn that file as an image.
    That may require renaming xxx.DVD to xxx.ISO.  This presumes it is an ISO.  Since 7zip can unarchive it, it probably is an ISO - or something very similar.  7zip may actually be able to tell you what its format is.
    Let us know how that goes if you give it a try.

  • Cannot install Windows 7 "recovery media" on new Portege R600

    I received a new R600 which I had wanted to buy with Windows 7 pre-installed, but the only option is to buy it with XP installed and "Windows 7 recovery media" (2 CDs) comes in the box, with no instructions. I started the computer, and did nothing but name it and choose a screen name; this brought up the desktop. Then I inserted the first of the 2 CDs: nothing. Powered off and started with that CD already in the disk drive: nothing. Called Toshiba tech help (phone seemed to be answered in India) and was instructed to perform several restarts holding down F12 or C: nothing. After a long hold while the tech sought help, was promised a call from his supervisor: so far (that was yesterday) nothing.
    Can anyone suggest how I can either solve this issue myself or get some action from Toshiba?

    Thanks for your reply. After two more calls to Toshiba Tech Help it turns out that the disc drive is defective (a music CD would not load and play). So I am returning the computer to Toshiba Direct in exchange for a new one.

  • HP laptop g7-1150us recovery (from recovery media) failed.

    Model: HP laptop g7-1150us
    recovery media: 3 DVDs that I created when I got this laptop.
    Hard disk: I have run diagnosis for hard disk. Passed.
    Problem:
    I have tried recovery from recovery media. Following the instruction, I insert 3 DVDs. It copied the required files from DVD to the hard disk and shows "recovery preparation is complete".  Also, it shows it will start recovery after restarting the computer. Once the computer is restarted, it shows boot failed. It is exactly the same story when I tried recovery manager from internal recovery disk.  

    If you can read the 25 character Microsoft Windows 7 license key attached to bottom of laptop, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version  must match version that came installed on your PC as  listed on the Microsoft COA sticker attached to bottom of laptop. Such as Windows Home Premium.
    Link to the Windows 7 ISO file downloads:
    http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325/
    You can use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to convert the ISO file you download. Link and instructions below. You need a  DVD+R or DVD -R . Or a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool#installation
    Use the 25 character key on the COA to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Next go to your support and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    how can i recover my system from that files without any toshiba utilities?
     You should order the recovery discs from Toshiba.
       Toshiba Europe Backup Media Online Shop
    After you have restored the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents, you should have the recovery utilities and partitions. See the A350 User's Manual (attached) for how to recover after that.

  • I just bought a MBP after my PC crashed. How do I set up my itunes library on my new Mac? I do not have a backup drive, and I was unable to recover anything from the trashed PC drive. Can the library be rebuilt/restored??

    Finally made the switch from PC to Mac, after my PC crashed and burned. I Do not have a backup on an external drive, and I was unable to recover any data from the trashed PC hard drive.
    Can I download my library, or is there a way to get my itunes content on my new Macbook Pro? I have almost 10 years of music and stuff on my iTunes, so I really hope there is a fix!
    Thanks!

    No backup is a huge mistake.

  • Unable to install Windows Phone Recovery Tool.

    Hello,
    during an installation of Windows Phone Recovery Tool 1.2.4 (downloaded from official source), I get a message about error 0x80070002. All requirements seems to be fulfilled (disk space, OS version etc.).

    Hi ,
    Instead of using Windows Phone Recovery Tool you could try downloading Lumia Software Recovery Tool. You can rollback from Windows 10 to Windows 8.1 using Lumia Software Recovery Tool. Try downloading Lumia Software Recovery tool from the following link - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=525568

  • Restore Windows 7 from Recovery Media on brand new SSD

    Hey all,
    a. I have a brand new Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD which I want to install on my x230t.
    b. I have already created a recovery media disc on a 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive.
    c. I have already updated all drivers (and BIOS) on currently installed mechanical hard drive.
    So the question is simple, how do I use that to restore to factory settings on brand new SSD? I don't want to:
    1. clone the current mechanical drive and
    2. I don't want to follow this guide as this installs a fresh copy of Windows 7 by downloading the a standard installation ISO and then installing the drivers included in the "SWTOOLS" folder in the C Drive. I want to use the factory recovery disk I created on an USB flash drive as that install all drivers and turn computer to factory state (all at the same time).

    Recovery media is actually a clone.  At the Lenovo factory, we preload your system by installing the OS, drivers, and software.  The very last step of the preload process is to create an image of the preloaded HDD using imagex, and this is what is on the Q drive of the Win7 preload.  So if you were to use the recovery media you created, all you are doing is restoring a image (clone) of the HDD as it left the Lenovo factory.  This is what you say you don't want to do.
    If it were me, I would install the fresh copy of Win7, manually install the WLAN driver and System Update from the X230 driver matrix, and then let Windows Update and System Update do the rest...
    Recovery media is OK, but you are left with a 1+ year old preload and still have to run Windows Update and System Update to download hundreds of updates.  Might as well just start with a fresh install and accomplish the same thing.

  • New Hard drive - won't install windows from recovery disc

    I am having an issue with my Satellite L505D-S5965.  I replaced the hard drive (upgraded from 250 to 500GB) due to issues with the old one (which had been replaced once already) and am using the recovery disc I made before my other hard drive crashed.  When I boot the computer, it says it is loading Windows files, asks for country, etc., but then doesn't display an operating system to choose and asks me to choose drivers.  I can't restore it from a system image because I kept getting an error on the old drive when I tried to create one.  When I've checked, it says that Windows isn't installed on the computer.  I checked the BIOS and it is recognizing the new hard drive.  I have also tried booting it up from the DVD/CD using the set of disks I created after I got my new hard drive previously, but it doesn't seem to even recognize them and I can't get to the Toshiba Recovery Wizard. I would order the Toshiba Recovery Media, but with the issues I'm having, I'm not sure that is the fix.  I'd hate to be out another $30 on an old computer (since we also had to replace the mother board in the past few months) if I'm not sure that will cure the problem.

    The usual problem is restoring to a drive with advanced-format technology. Nearly all the new drives use it. See this message from three years ago.

  • Errors when reinstalling windows from recovery disks

    My laptop crashed and could no longer find Windows, so I ordered a recovery disc (TR-IM00209299 - Win7 SP1 64Bit HomePremium (NH)) via the Toshiba Recovery Media Shop. I have now received the Windows 7 Recovery discs but they do not successfully install, and I'm unclear if this is an error on the discs I received, or an issue with the hardware. Below are the error details. Is this an error that any of you are familiar with? Please advise

    I contacted Toshiba in parallel to making this post, and they suggested getting a new copy of the discs. I wasn't sure if it was likely to be a hardware or software problem, so thought I'd see if anyone on the forum could confirm either way. I'm waiting for the new discs to be sent out, and will come back and confirm if that cured the problem. Thanks Mister X

  • Unable to recover Windows 7 Starter version!! Please help me !!

    Dear All,
    I was accidentally switched off the power cord whilst I was installing software since then, I was unable to recover my Windows 7 Starter in my HP Mini 1100 (Intel Atom). currently, I am trying to recover my Windows 7 Starter through HP Instant Web but to no avail !!! Please kindly help me to recover my Windows 7 Starter in my HP Mini 1100 ( Intel Atom). Please help......thanks......Beginner00.

    Hi,
    Here's an alternative option you could try.
    You can use the following method to create your own Windows 7 Starter 32bit installation media.
    Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the entire 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
    An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
    You can create Windows 7 installation yourself using another PC. However, there is no download directly available for Windows 7 Starter, so you'll need to download another version ( any one will do, but the link below is for Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit - the source is Digital River ).
    Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 32bit.
    For the key on your COA label to work, you will now need to use the method described in the following link to convert this ISO to an all-version installer– the section you require to modify the ISO is Stage 1 Universal DVD ( although you’re going to be creating a usb installer, the method for modifying the ISO is the same ).
    http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/85813-windows-7-universal-installation-disc-create.html
    Once done, use an application such as Rufus to create a Windows 7 bootable usb flash drive.
    Use the Flash Drive to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

    Additional drivers and software you may need for your notebook can be found by entering either the full Model No. or Product No. Here.
