How to lauch Win XP Recovery Console from M30x recovery media?

I'm getting an error message on startup to the effect that the windows\system32\config/system file is missing or corrupt. Obviously I can't startup! It also says to hit 'r' on the first screen of the recovery procedure- but such an option isn't ON the first screen of the recovery disk, and since there's a lot of crucial (and unbacked up- this thing belongs to my parents..) stuff on it, I can't risk accidentally going into reformat mode. Then again, it's been a long time since I've done this- is it possible to reinstall windows without documents being affected? Unfortunately we only have the OEM copy of XP, not a proper disk.

Unfortunately, the Toshiba recovery CD is not the same as a original Windows CD from the Microsoft.
The recovery CD contains only a ghost image files. If you will boot up from the Recovery CD the whole HDD will be erased.
If you have created a several partitions you can use a expert mode to install the OS on a single partition. Then only this partition will be deleted.

Hi,
I built berkeley DB 4.4.20 and use it from Jbuilder2005, I noticed that tha size of Jbuilderw.exe consumes about 96MB of memory and the size of javaw.exe consumes (in my application) about 63MB. so I thought that if I load the jdk1.4 only ( by running my code from the command line) this will save memory because not all compenents of Jbuilder will be loaded into memory. to do so, I copied the directory jdk1.4 from inside jbuilder2005 and put it on c:\, then I build berkeley DB using visaul c++ 6.0 and filled the following pathes in the include directory(tools-->options->directories)
c:\jdk1.4\include
c:\jdk1.4\include\win32
and in the executable files directories I added the following path:
c:\jdk1.4\bin
then I set the classpath from inside windows (server2003), and I set the path as well but when I run the java class from the command line, I recieved message like "the packege com.sleepycat.db " not exist
thanks

How execute a command on the Console from our prgm

can any body let me know how do we execute a command on the Console from our prgm . . on a windows platform ..
eg. a simple commant like "dir" or "cls" . . or whatever . . .
i heard that it can be done by calling the native methods . . but how is that done???

thankx for the quick reply . .
for instance i wanna take a file from my local machine . .
a c++ source code . . (myfile.cpp)
i want to execute that on the prompt using c:\> tcc myfile.cpp
and all these i mean reading the file from the HDD and giving it to the console and getting the output everything should be done by my prgm . .
so basically the command which i usually run on the prompt i should be able to pass that command from my java prgm to the console and get that thing executed . .
i hope i am clear now .. .

How do I start a recovery directly from the recovery partition? Windows 8

Is there a method by which I can go directly to the recovery partition on my CQ58 and initiate a system recovery? I downgraded my system to Windows 7 Home Premium and now I am ready to go back to Windows 8. I made sure to create the Windows 8 recovery disc yet when I run it everything starts normal but then it displays a message Unable to reset your PC. A required drive partition is missing. Yet the recovery partition is there and all of the software is still contained in it. When I click on the folders on the drive it denies me access. What do I do?

Hi there ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions. I looked into the issue you are having with the missing partition on your Notebook. I found a document called Resetting Your PC to Resolve Problems for Windows 8. I also found a document for you from Microsoft. It is called Fix: The drive where Windows is installed is locked. I think that this is the Manual for your Notebook as well (please double check it is the right Notebook.) If not I would be happy to get you the right one. Open the manual and press ctrl+f on your keyboard. A little box will pop up (its a search box). Type in partition to see every time partition is mentioned in the whole document and use the arrows to find out where. If you pay special attention to Chapter 7 page 74 to 79, it will give you information about partitions and troubleshooting.
Please follow these provided troubleshooting steps.
Have a great day!

Win 8 wont startup from system recovery disk

This question was solved.

Hi,
You may need to Disable Secure Boot and Enable Legacy Devices in the Bios Menu first.
Also, if your HDD has a GUID partition table and you want the OS to boot from the uefi firmware, remember to choose the entry for the optical drive that has (uefi) in the boot manager - see 'Recovery from Recovery Discs' in the HP document on the following link.

How to Invoke DAC (Datawarehouse Admin Console) from Jobtrac(Scheduler)

Could some one let me know the process involved in invoking DAC from Jobtrac. What are the parameters that should be passed from the Jobtrac

I am not familiar with Jobtrac. You can run the DAC execution plan via command line.
dacCmdLine StartETL <plan name>
You can take a look at the file, dacCmdLine, which is a window bat file. Basically, it invoke the Java program com.siebel.etl.net.DACCommandLine.
If the scheduler can run the Java program, you should be able to invoke DAC execute plan from it.
Hope this helps.

How to edit registry using recovery console or dos

Hello everybody!
Due to some reason (virus) the value of - "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon - Shell " was changed so I repaired it with Explorer.exe. But due to some spelling mistake now I can log in in Win Xp. When the user log in screen appears and I choose the account its automatically logOff and return to the User Log in screen.
Now I have to repair the spelling mistake in registry key.
Please inform How can I do this. I can't log in so I can't use "Regedit". Can it is possible to edit the registry using recovery console?
Thanks & regards
nitin

Step 1
Type "cd %systemroot%/system32/" into the command prompt to go to the folder that contains the Registry Editor.
Step 2
Type "reg" into the command prompt to display a list of parameters and instructions on how to edit the system registry.
Step 3
Type "reg [parameter] /?", replacing "[parameter]" with one of the listed parameters, into the command prompt to list all available functions that can be used with that parameter.
Step 4
Type "reg [parameter] [function]" into the command line, but replace "[parameter]" with one of the listed parameters (query, add, delete, copy, etc.) and "[function]" with a function listed above, along with any additional options
for each function. For example, to delete a registry key, type "reg delete [rootkey]\[keyname]", replacing the "[rootkey]\[keyname]" text with the location of the registry key.
Step 5
Save a registry key by typing "reg save [rootkey]\[keyname] [filename].hiv", where the "[rootkey]" and "[keyname]" text are the location and name of the registry file and "[filename]" is the name of the file to which
you are saving the key.
Step 6
Restore a registry key by typing "reg restore [rootkey]\[keyname] [filename].hiv", where the "[rootkey]" and "[keyname]" text are the location and key name that you want to restore and "[filename]" is the name of the
file containing the saved key.
Step 7
Import a "REG" file by typing "reg import [filename].reg". To export a registry key to a "REG" file, type "reg export [rootkey]\[keyname] [filename].hiv", where the "[rootkey]" and "[keyname]" text
are the location and key name that you want to export and "[filename]" is the name of the "REG" file you are exporting.

Cannot Access Recovery Console on U205-S5002 Win XP SP3

I can only get BSOD UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME, STOP 0x000000ED (0x........, 0xC0000006, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) errors, when I reboot. It does not matter which startup option I pick. When I try the recovery CD, the only options seem like they will wipe out all my data. How do I access the recovery console? Thanks.

Satellite U205-S5002
Bug Check 0xED: UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME
That's the best BSOD. I've recovered from that error several times by running chkdsk /r from the Recovery Console. See KB555302 and KB297185.
Two ways to reach the Recovery Console:
1. Beg, borrow, buy, or steal a Windows XP installation CD.
2. Attach an appropriate floppy drive and download the necessary images.

Backup DPM 2012 SP1 from Recovery console

Hi
I have a problem. I have a server with Windows Server 2008 R2 and DPM 2012 SP1. Because of a recent RAID controler crash i am unable to fix this server to boot to windows. I can only get into recovery console. I see the volumes normaly! So here is a million
dolar question. How can i backup DPM databases from recovery console so that i can make a full restore when i freshly install new windows and DPM?
Thanks for all your help in advance.
Boštjan

Hi,
only Thing you need ist MDF and LDF files from DPMDB.
Try to copy These two files.
Install your new Serve with same Name and same DPM version
Restore DB with SQL Management Studio and overwrite the new and existing one
present DPM Backupstorage to the new server
Run dpmsync -sync

Re: How to access the Windows Recovery Console?

How can I access the Windows Recovery Console. The Microsoft KBs state that it can be accessessed from booting with the OS DVD. However you don't supply OS DVD only the Toshiba Recovery Disks. When I boot these it only gives the option to erase all data and restore to original state.
I have a Toshiba Qosmio F10 running Windows 7 32bit.
The reason I need the recovery console is due to a chkdsk failure that has now lead to it running everytime I boot and hanging each time. Other MS Articals say I can get out of this endless loop by using the Windows Recovery Console.

Windows 7 was preinstalled soemwhere on HDD when I purchased it new in June 2010. All I had to do was selcet 32bit or 64bit the first time it ran. I then took the option to create recovery media (which burned 4 dVDs). However the only option using these dvds is to run install which the screen states will erase all data and reinstall as supplied from the factory.
I need to get to some form of access the the HDD which means I need to stop chkdsk running at startup everytime it boots and then hanging every time. I can't access sfae mode either. I need to abort chkdsk get into either a command prompt or windows so I can run other utitlies to check the HDD.
