Creating Recovery Disk from another Windows

Hello everyone, my laptop is HP Pavilion dv6 7040-tx and Product NumberB8N04PA#ACJ. It came with Windows 7 Home Premium which is also, in the recovery partition. I removed Windows 7 Home Premium and installed Windows 7 Ultimate. Now I want to create recovery disks for the Windows 7 Home Premium from the Recovery Partition. But I don't have HP Backup and Recovery Manager installed in Windows 7 Ultimate. Can any one tell me how to do this without doing recovery or removing my current Windows 7 Ultimate installation??

You must burn the Recovery Disks before installing another OS. You can call HP to order a set.Choose your country here>> Contact HP

How to Continue Creating Recovery Disks after Updating Window 8.0 to 8.1

My laptop is hp 2000-2d62nr notebook pc (energy star) S/N: 5CG342027W
I might mess up the HP Recover Manager as follow:
I was attempting to create the recovery disks for the HP Window 8.0 laptop. HP Recovery Manager needed 5 disks. After 2 disks made done, I left my laptop for two hours. Then I returned to my laptop and saw Window to ask me to update Window 8.1. And I updated it to Window 8.1.
After Window 8.1 update done, the system had been restarted. When returning to HP Recovery manager, it asked me to continue the third recovery disks. I selected "Continue". However, Disk 3 verified failed at 15%, the pop up window asked me to use another disk and try again. I attempted second times by restart my laptop. again, Disk 3 verified failed at 2%,
How do I clean this mess and make a 2nd set of recovery disks?
Thank you for your suggestions.
Best Regards,

I called the above phone number. Tech Support told me to charge $40.00 for recovery disks. I complained this and they transfered me to 877-917-4380 to talk with Case Manager. He agreed sending the recovery disks with no charge

How to create recovery disk on HP envy dv6 7258nr notebook pc - window 8

I m trying to create recovery disk from recovery drive which is created by hp while purchasing the laptop, while taking back up from recovery manager, Recovery Manager says (Recovery Partition has been removed - Recovery Media creation option is no longer available) , but as per my knowledge i did not took back up of recovery drive. So what should i do to take back up of my recovery drive to **bleep**.

Based on what you have stated, it appears that you or someone else with access to your notebook deleted the recovery partition. Without the recovery partition on the hard disk you can't make recovery media.
Your best option at this point would be to purchase a recovery disk set from HP or an HP Partner.

Creating Recovery Disks when Windows 7 won't Boot

My sister's hard drive is in imminent failure on HP G60-535DX Notebook. Windows 7 won't boot. I need to make recovery disks. I have been able to back up info going into System Recovery Manager, but I don't see an option to create recovery disks to install the system on a replacement hard drive. Is it possible to create the disks or order them?
Thanks,

How to create recovery disks for Lenovo H530s with WIndows 8.1

Hello there,
I just purchased a Lenovo Hf30s type 10131 with Windows 8.1, mini tower: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/desktops-and-all-in-ones/lenovo-h-series-desktops/lenovo-h5...
I like to create recovery disks, but the already installed program OneKey Recovery does not have the option of recovery disks, it allows only larger media such as USB stick and hard disks.
Here to I have 2 questions:
1. Is there a way to create a recovery disks that will create the original factory settings with 5 partitions?
2. Does any one knows if the recovery siskd sold by Lenovo (for Netherlands they cost between 23 and 38 Euro) would do the job by creating the factory settings with 5 partitions?
My goal is to reformat the hard disk and aprtitionig it the way I need it, but in case of anything, I would like to be able to go back to the original facttory state of the unit, especially if I have a harddisk failure and neer to replace the hard didks.
Thank you in advance and I wish you a very pleasant and successful day.

How to create W7 recovery media from retail Windows 8

I installed retail W8 on my new X230T upon purchase.
Q drive is preserved, however I cannot find a way to create recovery media from it.
Any suggestions?

I'm not sure you can, bitlocker ties your installation to the hardware.
"To P2V a BitLocker drive, please suspend the protection"

Do user-created recovery disks work with replacement HDD of different capacity?

The original Seagate 250GB SATA HDD in my Pavilion G60-214EM notebook has completely failed (BIOS and other Windows machines cannot even see it). I replaced it with a Samsung 160GB SATA HDD but Recovery Manager on my user-created (DVD-R) recovery disk consistently fails at 2% of "Reformatting the Windows partition of your hard disk drive". If I look at the resulting partitions from another machine I see a 10.61 GB NTFS 'RECOVERY' partition, an empty active primary NTFS partition of 37.12 GB and 101.31 GB still unallocated.
Should the user-created recovery disks work if the replacement disk drive is smaller capacity than the original?
Should they work with a larger capacity replacement drive?
If not, can HP provide recovery disks that will work with a different capacity HDD?
Thanks,
--A

Hi, I am the same predicament as you are From my experience thus far, the replacement disk drive space needs to be bigger or equal to the original HD space. (e.g.. I had a 640 gb OEM HD, I cannot install or factory reset the new 500 gb WD HD because it says its too small...)
As for question 2, I am going to try to get a 1TB hard drive, though I don't know due to the prices and such. Will post back if I do.
Question 3: I do not know, someone else may be more knowledgeable:/
Hope this helps!

Cannot create recovery disk after update to Win 8.1 on G580

Friends
I have a Lenovo G580 that came with Win 8.0 preinstalled. I upgraded it to Win 8.1 over the Internet.
When I try to run the "Create recovery disk" I get the error that states that "We cannot create a recovery drive for this PC. Some required files are missing..."
I found out that the winre.wim file that is supposed to be in the C:\Windows\System32\Recovery folder is not there. I cannot locate it anywhere on the C or D drives either. I believe there is a copy on one or more of the recovery partitions but I do not know how to get that file from those partitons.
I am confused as to why there are seven partitions on that one drive:
1 Recovery partition 1000 MB
2 EFI system partition 260 MB
3 OEM partition 1000 MB
4. Recovery partition 350 MB
5. Recovery partition 20 GB
6. Lenovo D: 25 GB
7. Windows 8 C: 250 GB
Can someone help me and give me some instructions on how I can fix the system to find the winre.wim file?
Thanks for any good input.
Calle

Hi Calle,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the error message is displayed in your G580 Laptop, as the OS (Operating System) installed is Windows 8.1 or Windows 8. Recovery discs cannot be created only a “Recovery Media” can be created using USB Flash drive, below is the link to create USB recovery drive.
Create a USB Recovery Drive
Do post us back if the issue persists.

Recovery Disk Creation Error (Windows Vista / Satillite A200)

Hello Everyone,
I have a Satellite A200 running Vista. This is inherited so I will do the best to describe the issue:
Mainly because it's inherited and running terrible I wanted to wipe the drive back to factory settings:
When creating the disks, it get about 1/2 way through the first one, then gives an error similar to:
Unable to Read (drive)\ZZImages\ZZImages\preinst.swm.
I unfortunately did not write down the specific error message, and I will make a new frisbee if required to find out (unless it has a log?)
It happened once while at the previous owners posestion, so before running it myself I can a chkdsk on the C Drive.
There was a 2nd partition, 5GB that's empty, as well as a HIDDEN partition (unsure of size) that had quite a few files on it.
I had inspected the systems within Linux which reads everything fine, then set the chkdsk flag (Dirty Bit) to ensure a full scan of the C drive.
Any suggestions as to what I can do would be great.

Scanning the C: drive won't have any affect on this. The images are storred in the larger hidden partition that you should NOT scan. Since it happened to the original owner and to yourself it's fiarly obvious that the problem lies in the recovery partition. Your best bet at this time would be to order a replacement set of recovery disks from Toshiba. See the second post in this Recovery Forum for details.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

HT4848 Error creating recovery disk in Disk Assist

I've carefully followed all instruction in this post: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4848, but I am having an error when creating the recovery disk.
The recovery Disk Assist starts creating it, but stops early on. The message I get is titled "Conclusion," and it says "The recovery drive wasn't created. There was an error creating recovery disk."
Can anyone help me with this? I followed all the steps in the post above and I also created the partition on the external drive.
I really need to wipe out my computer and make it appear "as new" because I am selling it. Any help would be great!
Thanks!

Same happened to me. This makes absolutely no sense, but I just kept trying and trying then it finally worked. For me, it hasn't been worth the bother. These restore DVDs don't work like the ones I made for an Acer laptop, for example. On my Acer, I repartitioned, reformatted my drive and was easily able to restore my computer before I sold it. I've been going nuts trying to restore my computer after a clean install of Windows 7. Still can't get it to work.

When i insert my recovery disk from hp nothing comes up to start the recovery process

i just got the three windows 7 recovery disks from hp in mail(application and driver recovery dvd, and the two system recovery dvds) and when i put first system recovery disk in nothing comes up for me to start recovery what can i do

Hi:
When you boot from the DVD drive with disk 1 in the DVD-ROM drive, nothing happens?
You need to restart the PC, and at the HP welcome screen, tap the F9 key to get the boot menu. You then select the DVD-Rom to boot from and then follow the on screen prompts and instructions.

Recovery Disks From Toshiba

I'm considering ordering a recovery disk from Toshiba for my Satellite L870D P/N PSKFQU-00D007 so that I can re-install Windows 8 clean. I purchased my laptop from ToshibaDirect. I can't make my own recovery disks because my hard drive has already been reformatted. Does anyone have experience with this? Will the disks I get from Toshiba have all the files and drivers I need for a complete reinstall of the OS?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Satellite L870D-ST3NX1 (PSKFQU-00D007)
When you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media everything is restored. It's not like installing Windows.
For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery media, which begins on p. 57 of the User's Guide.
Satellite/Satellite Pro C800/L800/S800 Series User’s Guide
Be sure to follow these instructions when you upgrade to Windows 8.1.
