Hdd in new laptop, need recovery disks?

I replaced my hdd from another HP laptop I had. It works, boots up properly except the USB ports, wifi and cd's are all diconnected from the hdd. Will recovery disks(I have none) fix this issue? 

We need the model of the laptop and the Windows version you installed. Likely you just need drivers and they can be downloaded here. However, we need the model of the laptop and Windows version to tell which drivers you need.

  • I need recovery disks

    Hi, had problems with my laptop running bad and all kinds of problems. I decided to re-install the software back to the factory setup when I purchased the laptop. I have a new set of recovery disks I got from HP back then and I had never used them. I started the recovery and the first disk formatted the hard drive and installed software, and then it asked for disk number two. I loaded the second disk and the program carried on for a short while then informed me that there is an error and the setup was cancelled by the program itself. I tried many times over, but the same problem happen, now I am without a working computer. I am in need of software to recover my laptop, if you please can advise.

    Run hardware diagnostics from the BIOS to confirm that everything is still OK.
    Try cleaning the DVDs if it helps any:
    http://www.wikihow.com/Clean-a-DVD
    In the event that your recovery partitions is intact, repeatedly tap the F11 key at boot to get into recovery manager if it still works.
    If is possible that the recovery disks you have are corrupt and you will have to order new ones.
    If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144, and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.  Otherwise the WorldWide site:  http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/support.html

  • Satellite P10: Need recovery disk after HDD crash

    I've got a Toshiba p10 and the HD has crashed. I've had this machine for 2 years, but I bought it 2nd hand, therefore I don't have any system disks.
    Where can I get a system recovery disk and is it true that the recovery disk will only work if I install the same size HD? The existing drive is 30g and I'd like to install a 40g drive instead.
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hi
    No its not true. You can use a different HDD sizes and the recovery CD has nothing to do with HDD compatibility.
    You should only be sure that the notebook and BIOS will recognize the new HDD size but I think the 40GB are supported on this notebook.
    So if you put a new HDD into the notebook you have only to boot up from the CD drive.
    In my knowledge the recovery CD and every supported and compatible device you can purchase from the Toshiba service partner in your country.
    I found the link on the Toshiba support page so I recommend visiting this site.
    Good luck

    Hi:
    If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number. This is a new number to order disks from so you'll have to choose the menu that makes the most sense.
    You will need to provide the model # and serial # to get the disks. Cost is $10.
    1-800-334-5144
    Please post back and let me know what you need to do to navigate to how to actually get to order the disks.
    If you don't live in the USA/Canada, call HP support for the country you live in at the link below. If they have a separate number for Business PC's/Notebooks, call that number.

  • Need Recovery Disks - Please Help!

    Hello,
    I need the recovery disks for my "Lenovo 3000 N200" laptop as I can not create the disks myself. Problem is, when I tried to call Lenovo for the disks and pressed 2 for the 3000 support, "it didn't recognize my choice". I really need these disks as my whole laptop system is screwed up from installing Ubuntu as a partition. I have had a lot of help and it has led me to get these disks but even that is proving difficult.
    Does anybody know of any other way to get these disks?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jack

  • New windows 8 recovery disks from HP installed but won't work

    I installed a new hard drive in a friends Dell G6-2249WM. She didn't make recovery disks so I ordered them from HP.
    They seem to install fine, I click "Finish" and the notebook shuts down. When I start it I get:
    Boot device not found
    Please install an operating system on your hard disk
    Hard disk (3F0)
    F2  System diagonstics
    for information, please visit: www.hp.com\go\techcenter\startup
    I've run Hard drive diagonstics, it passes.
    I've reset the bios to default.
    I've hit Esc at start up, then hit F11 - the notebook then just goes back to the above "Boot device not found" screen.
    I've removed all formating on the drive (on another computer). Reinstalled the Recovery disks and still have the same problem.
    I received 3 Windows 8 Recovery disks and 1 Application and Recovery DVD from HP.

    Sorry, your right, the one I'm working on is a HP G6-2249WM. MY laptop is a Dell. I did reseat the drive after the first install try. The hard drive test says it passes. I just tryed reinstalling the disks without the 4th "Application and driver disk".  still didn't work. It formats and loads all the files on the disks but then won't start the recovery after shut down.  I took the drive out and connected it to my desk top computer. I has 2 partitions, one with 18.9 gb with one boot.sdi, one boot.wim a seperate RM folder containing several base.swm files and one bild.wim file. The other partition is empty. Is there a way to force the recovery partition to unpack and start?

  • Looking for a new laptop, need help!?!

    I am searching for a new laptop to use in college and i am planning to spend $900 to $1000 on it and would like a laptop that is not too big (like equal to or under 16".) I would like at least 500GB hard drive and processor that is good but not to strong that I have no battery life. I was thinking i5 processor.  I would like it to have enough battery to be able to use through good chunk of day (like 6hr rated or so.)  It needs to be somewhat durable as I know college will take its toll on the computer.  It would be great addition to have a good video card.  I don't know if there is anything out there like this but hope there is.  Please post suggestions or new ideas about what i would need for college.  Thank you for any help!
    Luke

    Hi Lukedmann,
    Thank you for considering Best Buy for the purchase of your next laptop. As we start off the Back to School season you should start seeing the introduction of quite a few new models,  and some that should be able to meet your need. With the way technology advances day to day, this shouldn't be impossible to maintain.
    Personally, taking into account any and all biases I have and stuff, theres 4 models i'd point out to you inside my store. Understanding that these are not your only options, and that I think that the aethetic design of the computer (how nice you think it looks) should definitely play a role, i'm sure any of these should be able to meet the demands you specified.
    3 Models to Compare
    Overall these are pretty close to your price limit, and I chose these assuming you wish to spend 900-1000 on the laptop and already counted in taxes, accessories, softwares etc. Just to let you know I discounted some models to give you the higher quality, however some models which come out to cost less would still meet your specified criteria. Let us know if you have any questions.
    Sincerely,
    Agent Lamar

    Your friend is right. the iPod cannot be used to update iTunes. I had the same problem about a year ago, and I just transferred each song using my jumpdrive. It's painstakingly boring, but it will work without wiping anything clean.

  • Satellite A300 - Need recovery disk 2

    Hii
    Does anyone have the recovery disk 2 for A300? I have disk 1 but missing disk 2 :(
    Hope someone can help me or send me a link from where i can download the disk 2
    Thankyou

    Hi
    Sorry but recovery image cannot be downloaded and if you want to use recovery image you must order it.
    One more thing: Satellite A300 is nice notebook and runs perfectly with Win7 so I recommend you to use Win7 and not Vista.
    To avoid recovery disc order, obtain Microsoft installation disc and install Win7. Im pretty sure you will be satisfied with it.

  • New Laptop need 64 bit version but originally bought the 32 bit version.

    I just got a new laptop, a 64 bit version of Windows 7.  However, my download of Lightroom was the 32 bit version.  Does anyone know if I can I get the 64 bit version and use it on my new computer without having to pay more?
    Thanks for any advice I can get.

    Just download it from the Lightroom website (the demo version is the full version) and select the right version. Just enter your serial number and you will be good to go.
