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

To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.

Equium - Black screen and cant reboot with the recovery disc

I have a black screen and cant reboot with the recovery disc but I seem to be getting nowhere.
I find it strange I cant ask Toshiba direct about my problem but I have to wait for a kind hearted person to solve my problem or give me a helping hand

Of course you can ask Toshiba. Toshiba has Authorized service providers worldwide and I hope some of them are in your country too.
So please visit Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Download > Find an ASP and contact nearest service provider. Just explain the situation and I hope they will help you.
Back to your problem:
It is not easy to say why this happen. The whole issue is not described so well and I am missing some important points.
Maybe you have upgraded RAM and now notebook doesnt start properly. It is also possible that CPU is defective. It can be so many different reasons for this.
Best thing you can do is to contact service and ask for help. they can run diagnostic tools and find out quickly what the problem is.

New HD, unable to install Windows 7 from recovery discs

I have a pavilion dv6. The hard drive recently failed so I replaced it (the original was a Western Digital 640Gb, the new one is WD but 320Gb). To install Windows 7, I used the 6 recovery dvds I made when I originally bought the notebook. After the 6th dvd, the screen displays the hp logo and stays on that screen without restarting. I have tried the Windows install 3 times, the 1st time I had to do a hard shutdown because it just sat at the hp logo screen. The second time the system shut down on its own due to overheating. The third time I waited 1.5hrs before shutting it down. Any help is much appreciated.

A couple of things to consider.
1-On most machines Recovery Disks will fail to install if the hdd is smaller than the original, unless maybe there was a configure to order option on your model to choose a smaller hdd.
2-Have you tested the hdd in BIOS setup, not that uncommon to receive a faulty hdd.
3- Scroll down on the page and get Partition Wizard Bootable CD ISO and ImgBurn to burn the iso image to cd and boot from it. Delete any partitions, create one and format. Next try booting from Recovery again.

(Resolved) Windows 8 - Recovery Discs Do Not Work With New Hard Drive

Update:
I decided to buy drive cloaning software. I cloned my drive, that resolved the problem of installing the OS on the new drive. Too bad neither HP's Restore disc's or this support fourm could help with this issue.
Origional Post:
Product Name: HP Pavilion G4-2235DX
Product Number: C3Q50UAR#ABA
BIOS: Insyde F.26, 2/21/2013
Processor: AMD A6-4400M APU w/ Radeon HD Graphics, 2700 Mhz, 2 Core(s)
BIOS Mode: UEFI
SMBIOS Version: 2.7
RAM: 12GB
Operating System: Windows 8 - 64bit (6.2.9200 Build 9200)
Situation: I purchased this computer new as a refurbished model from a retail store. I created system restore discs after initial setup using the HP Recovery Media Creation Utility. This system has a 500 GB hard drive. I purchased a Western Digital 1 TB hard drive to upgrade the drive in this notebook. After swaping out the drives and trying to load the recovery onto the new 1TB hard drive in the same computer, an HP dialogue so states "This PC is not supported by the System Recovery Discs. You will not be able to continue to recover this system with these discs." It gives a code (doesn't call it an error code) 0110-C3150UQ43#ABA underneath and only option is okay, the system reboots and follows the same pattern again and again.
I have upgraded drives in the past on Vista and 7 the same way using self created HP recovery discs with no issue, I do know what i'm doing. I've seen discussion mentioning BIOS issues and other such problems. I did try updating the BIOS to the one on the HP Support page (2013-03-01 , Version:F.26, 7.76M) and the recovery discs still will not work. I found the CyberLink Recovery Discs Utility thread, however this solution/software has no support for Windows 8. I have tried to run the utility and it fails, tried with compatiabity and it failed. Why is this happening and what can be done to resolve this problem?
I tried using chat support but it won't let me get through to anyone, claiming my warranty is expired. I just bought this computer 3 days ago and was assured a 90 day warranty.
Please help, Thanks.

By being marked as Solved, the thread will be much higher in Google search results and it will more likely to help others.

Also, I wanted to apologize for the customer service issues you had. I hope that everything is working well with the computer now. Of course, if it's not, let me know. I'll be glad to help in any way I can.
Information on the warranty:
Refurbished computers are often erroneously marked as out of warranty, but it is simple to fix, and a phone representative could have corrected that for you. All computers' warranty start dates begin on the day they leave the factory. HP knows that there will be a period where the computer will sit on a shelf (for days or months) at the retailer. With refurbished computers, their 90-day warranties begin on the day they are refurbished. HP has no way of knowing what date the customer will buy the computer so the warranty start date stays the same until the customer registers the computer providing the date of purchase for the warranty system to be updated. If the registration process fails for some reason (rare, but it happens), phone technical support has a process they can initiate to have the warranty corrected. They only need a copy of the receipt showing the date of purchase.
I hope this information helps! Please let me know if you have any questions and thanks again for you post!

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.

Issues with Recovery from recovery disc I created

Product Name and Number: HP G60-519WM notebook
Operating System installed: Windows 7 64-bit
I am trying to recover my system from a recovery disc I created, but am not having any luck. From the Systems Recovery Options, I get as far as it saying 'Use recovery tools that can help fix problems starting Windows. Select operating system to repair. If your operating system isn't listed click Load Drivers and then install drivers for your hard discs', which (NO OPERATING SYSTEM IS LISTED AT ALL) After I've clicked 'Load Drivers', I get the message, "Insert the installation media for the device and click OK to select driver." I'm stuck at this point....what driver(s) do I add and what else do I do to fix my laptop?
*Also from the Recovery Manager window, of the three help columns I am only able to select from second column titled ->I'd like to identify any problems.
PLEASE HELP

Thanks for responding to me, but is there no other way that I can solve this issue? In other words without cost? I don't even understand why this happened to me....I regularly do system clean ups, always check for updates, rarely download anything, etc.
One day I turned on my laptop and initially got a blue screen saying something happened (don't remember word for word) and restarted it per it's suggestion hoping it would fix itself....after I did, it came on making weird sounds and black screen telling me to insert reboot disc and press any key??? My financial status is bad currently and don't have luxury of $20 nor any amount. Please tell me there is another way??????

DV9715nr difficulty booting from recovery disc

I have a DV9715nr running vista home premium (32bit) Phoenix Technologies BIOS version F.27 (Jan 2008)
Hard drive crashed the other day and had difficulties booting from the drive prior to crashing. Replaced hard drive and ordered recovery discs from HP to restor to original config.
First go round had some difficulty booting from the recovery disc but got it, 10+ hours later and it failed....most likely because i was impatient and stopped the FBIgui screen several times. so BOOTMGR is missing pres C,A,D. so I try to redo the recovery discs. Put in disc, turned off and turned back on. hangs at bios screen and then BOOTMGR error again. went into bios and moved DVD to top slot and same thing. Thought maybe it was DVD rom, so Ii shut down went to pick up an external USB one from walmart, approx 20 mins later got back and tried again without using the external USB, and it worked, but hung up a min later at loading windows files from the disc. Shut down and let sit overnight, retied again this morning and got to the first stage of reformatting, I think (i am not home now) but spoke with my GF who says it is asking for disc 1, which mind you is ALREADY in there. I had her pop the drive and close it again. Dont know what is going on now, but have a feeling it is hanging again, and I cant seem to find anything in any forum post, review or what not about this particular situation.
So to recap I have tried
selecting DVD as first choice to boot from
Hard reset
looked over all other setting in BIOS (very limited)
New HDD passed quick test
External USB does no better then the internal (yes even after switching BIOS back to boot from USB first)
Is the BIOS bad? can it overheat? is there a way to flash the BIOS without having an OS installed?
any help would be much appreciated, I am all out of options.
thanks

Thank you. I have already restored the BIOS to default multiple times. I did not however take out the battery. Took the laptop to a shop this morning to have them take a look as I was up all night dissasemling cleaning fan/heatsink, and reseating cpu with new thermal grease. That didnt even help.
My friend who works IT thinks the AMD CPU is the problem (Turion TL-60) but I am also researching about the No TPM or TPM has problem. evidentally that may be casusing the miss communication with BIOS and the DVD rom or any USB connected drive. Also tried a bootbale USB to reflash the BIOS but that didnt work, or I didnt create the bootable USB right.

Windows 8 Recovery Disc not working

Hi everbody,
I have purchased a Lenovo Thinkpad T430.
This laptop came with pre-installed Windows 7 Pro.
However I want to use Windows 8 which I have a recovery disc for.
I built in a SSD instead of the optical drive. So I don´t have a optical drive.
On this SSD I want to run my OS.
With a software from Samsung (manufacturer of my SSD) I was able to copy the Windows7 OS on my SSD.
As I mentioned above I bought a laptop with installed windows 7 pro and a Windows 8 upgrade disc.
Therefore I got the "Operating System Recovery Dis Windows 8 Pro. (OEM Activation 3.0 Required)".
The problem now is that I have an upgrade disc but no optical drive.
So I created an image of the upgrade disc and with this image I have created a bootable USB stick with the following program:
http://www.chip.de/downloads/UNetbootin_34673960.html
When I boot my laptop using the bootable USB stick everything seems to be working until to the point where I have to accept the EULA.
So I chose a language, and clicked on "I accept the agreements".
When I want to click on "next" I got a error message "recovery failed".
Please have a look on the following picture taken with my smartphone.
The language used in this picture is german as i live in Austria.
Link to image
Do you know how I can upgrade to Windows 8?
Can you tell me why the upgrade disc is not working?
Best Regards,
Philipp Stöger

Dear Phisto, from your description i cannot tell you anything more about the disk apart from the obvious, that it seems to be incomplete without the other 11 disks of the set. Did you buy this disk from Lenovo, from Microsoft, or is it something that came from unofficial channels? If it is the latter maybe you should not try to install it...
Now for cloning the SSD back to your HDD. The software that came with your Samsund should be able to do that as well. If not, then if your HDD is a Western Digital you can download and use Acronis WD edition from WD's site, it's free and will do the cloning. Otherwise you should use a free tool, Clonezilla is one of them and of course there are more.
As for the location of your various drives, I would suggest to keep things really really basic if you want to troubleshoot effectively, so the best thing would be to return the system to a "factory" condition, of course with the SSD in place of the HDD. You don't know which parameter is causing you trouble at this point. So, of course it would be easier to use an external DVD drive (and you should try it!), butif it fails as well you should try also the other approach.
I hope you solve this.

Recovery from recovery discs made with recovery manager on g62

I got the blue screen of death and had to do a system restore for my hp g62 laptop. Before i restored the computer, the recovery manager launched and had me backup my files. I backed up the system on like 15 discs using hp"s recovery manager. After it was done, i returned the computer back to factory settings. Now, im having a problem using the recovery discs made thru the recovery manager. The files arent being read. I tried to copy them and move them onto the hard drive....and they are all saved as .wim files....which arent read by anything. So i have all my files backed up, but that arent opening. How the hell do i open my files that i backed up? How do i put my files back on the computer?

Hi,
I've never really used the HP File Recovery system, but you can open an Image file as follows.
Download and install 7-Zip from the following link.
http://www.7-zip.org/
When installed, right click on the .wim file, select 7-Zip, select Extract Files and click Ok - your files should be in the newly extracted folder.
