To use recovery disc is very simply.
Just do the follow:
- Start your notebook and press F12
- When the boot menu is shown put recovery media into optical disc drive
- Choose CD/DVD drive on the list and press ENTER
- Follow the menu on the screen
- There is nothing you can choose or set. Just follow menu steps and confirm with OK
After recovery image installation leave notebook to complete installation.
Please note: recovery procedure will erase whole HDD and all saved data will be deleted. So, before you start installation back up all your important data.
Thats all!

Not able to use Recovery disc set

I have the hp pavillion g6 with windows 8.1. I have Webroot security that i bought witth my hp. I am always trying to be carefull when downloading anything. Recently i accidentally downloaded Outfox which made itself my search engine. Webroot blocked it. I tried to find it to uninstall, but was unable to. My computer has had serious issues since. Pages wont load, startup takes forever or wont start So i shut down and try again. My fans are running like i have it in the oven. I created back up disks off my D: drive A while back before the problem. I then deleted the drive as suggested to free up space. whn i tried to use the discs to correct my issues, it says invalid media. What can I do?

From reading through your posts it appears that you made backup disks instead of a recovery disk set. They are definitely not the same thing.
I highly ecommend purchasing a set of recovery disks from HP or an HP partner. Te recovery disk set will allow you to recover to the originally installed operating system. You will have to upgrade to Windows 8 and 8.1 again if that is your preferred OS.
You said that you deleted the partition ( I take it you meant the recovery partition) as recommended. I am quite certain that was not a recommendation by HP and it was very unlikely to have been a recommendation from an Expert here in the forum.

HP Windows 8 Recovery Failed (Used Recovery Discs)

Hi. I not sure where to begin.
System Info-
HP Pavilion g6t-2200 Notebook
Windows 8 (64bit)
This is my sisters Computer. Her system was running slow so I was going to reinstall the OS using the Recovery Media I ordered for the system. Ive reinstalled Operating Systems for muliple computers since Windows 2000.
I got 3 Discs titled - System Recovery DVD Windows 8 Recovery Media for Windows 8 Products -
and 1 Application and Driver Recovery DVD.
I started the PC, Went into the UEFI (BIOS) And changed the Boot Options to CD-DVD Drive, Inserted Disc 1 and Restarted
The Recovery Manager Loaded and Started the Factory Image reset.
I inserted All 3 CDs when prompted during the "Reformatting the Windows Partition of the Hard Drive" , "Copying Files required to Restore the Hard Drive" and "Restoring Files to the Hard Drive"
I was then told that if I received any additional Recovery CDs to insert them now. I had that Application and Driver Recovery DVD, But did not insert it and chose to skip, due to the fact the CD did not come in the same Sleeve as the others.
The PC restarted and went through an Installation Process and several Restarts. After all of that, The PC restarted and told me that the Recovery Had FAILED. I was given the option to retry, or create a Dump File.
I am at a lost, Should I have used the disc when prompted? Any support would be nice =D
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Thank you for the Reply.
I did look at this article before doing this reset, But im still getting the error message.
Here is the dump file from this time
As for my 2nd time, I tried, Inserted the 4th disc when asked. Went through the process. I saw the Windows 8 Metro Screen for a brief second. But now im stuck with the error message again.
I cant remember how to hide long Dump Files, so sorry its so long.

How to use recovery dvd on new hard drive, install window 7

hello, i have trouble with my laptop. my hard drive got bad sectors and now i need to replace my hdd to new one. im not sure how to reinstall window 7 on my new hdd.
is it possible to install operating system on new hard drive using recovery disk? and how?

Hi,
Yes, recovery discs will work on a new hard drive, but it's generally best to ensure that the replacement drive is of the same capacity ( slightly larger is Ok ) as the original - recovery discs can have issue when used on a drive that has a smaller capacity than the original.
When you have replaced the HDD, all you need to do is as follows.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu.
Insert the 1st Recovery Disc.
Select Boot options ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter. You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
You will be prompted to insert subsequent discs as required.

How to create recovery discs for HP notebook with preinstalled Windows ?

I Have just bought the HP ProBook 4530s with preinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
The notebook was purchased in the hipermarket so that it has no Windows installation discs.
There is a Windows 7 label sticked to the machine.
When I try to use standard Windows 7 procedure:
Start > Control Panel > Backup Your Computer > Create a system repair disc
it shows the error:
System Repair disc could not be created
the parameter is incorrect 0x80070057
How to create system recovery discs ?

Hi BH,
I have read the link you suggested and tried to find HP Recovery Manager at my notebook.
1) I typed Start > Search > "Recovery" but it was not installed.
2) I ran the HP Software Setup to check recommended and optional HP applications. HP Recovery Manager was not there.
3) I downloaded HP Recovery Manager for Windows 7 and ran the installation
I accepted the default folder.
C:\SWSetup\sp45415
It showed an installation form for a while and then completed with no message.
4) I repeated action (1) but no HP Recovery Manager.
5) I checked uninstall menu but no HP Recovery Manager.
Please let me know what to do next ?

So I purchased this laptop last year at Microcenter and since day 1 I noticed that the amber/white light that turns on when you connect the charger, it never turns white even after living the laptop charging the entire night, so far it doesnt bother me, but I I jus got a bigger hardrive and tried to install win 7 from the recovery discs that I had burned previously and it keeps telling me that the media is not usable in this unit. I even installed the originall hard drive in a enclosure and tried to boot windows so it would recover it from the usb but so far I havent been succesful with anything. I cant find the email address for HP so I can request the factory recovery discs. the laptop came pre intalled with win7 and a cd with windows 8.1 so you can upgrade it anytime but I need win 7 (main reasonwhy I purchased this laptop) any body has had any problems reinstalling windows 7? I would hate for my hard drive to crash and then find out that the recovery discs are useless

Hello,
Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.
There is no email to contact HP support. However, there are options for phone support, chat support or ticket support.
Here is some info:
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html
or
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
If you would like to purchase recovery disck for your machine, you can contact the respective support team.
If your original HDD drive is working fine, you can insert it into the computer.
You can try with Microsoft Windows built-in recovery process (system image) and creating a system recovery disk (then boot from it with the new HDD and apply the image on this HDD)

Or you can try with CloneZilla:

If this fails [I doubt, it should work perfectly], you can then try to purchase the recovery disks from HP support.
Let me know if this works/helps

Compaq Presario CQ57 - 205SO BOOTMGR Missing after using Recovery Discs

Hi..
Try to do a recovery with the Recovery Discs From HP
When everything is complete and you do a reboot....BOOTMGR is missing
and you need to start over
Self test is done OK
Start up test OK
Need some help her
clueless

All HP systems came with a recovery partition on the HDD. The only reason it shouldn't be present is if it was removed or if the HDD was replaced. There might be something wrong with the disks themselves. Have they worked previously or was this the first time they were being used?
You could also try using an official Windows 7 ISO using the product key found on the certificate of authenticity on the underside of the notebook. Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit can be found here. Make the DVD and proceed to install Windows using it. You would boot from it in the same manner you did the recovery disks. When it comes to activating Windows, you will need to use the phone activation method (it's automated) to use the OEM product key for that system. See DavidPK's answer in this thread for more information.
Using this workaround will get Windows 7 installed. Once that is done, you can install all of the drivers and desired software for your system from here.

A little more info besides "will not install" would help us to help you. For instance are you able/not able to boot from them. If you are able to boot from them where does the process fail-any error messages,etc?

Windows 8.1 notebook , recovery using recovery disc

my spouse after spending less than 10 hours in 20 years of having computers in our home thought he had made recovery discs after I purchased his notebook for him.
It turned out he did not follow the instructions correctly and made only 1 recovery disc.
Now I have the recovery discs set but some say to press the F10 key and others say the F9 key, which is the correct way to do a recovery, no speakers are attached right now and it is plugged directly into the wall outlet, not even connected to the Internet.
I purchased it for him with windows 8 pre installed and 8.1 downloaded with the updates, he did a restore but is no longer working correctly, no apps or email,( windows live mail). When he turns it on updates download and then uninstall and then his notebook freezes up, it seems he cannot do a recovery from the partition on his system.
Would someone please tell me the correct way to do a recovery for my spouse so that I can fix his notebook .As I said he rarely uses any computer not even to check his email, he leaves that for me to do.
As for me I am more familiar with windows 7 and hate windows 8.

it is F9 key. The HP instructions here should be helpful:

Repair using Recovery Disc for Satellite A100

Is it possible to do a *Repair* on my Toshiba Satellite A100-049 using the Recovery Disc that came with the laptop
Regards

Hi Dr Lamp,
It started about a week ago,when I think I had problems with the Malware /Virus "Fake Alert" where a meesage kept coming up saying I needed to repair or words to the effect. I then lost my desktop and my folders were empty in the start menu, and the screen was black.
I ran McaFee antivirus, Malwarebytes and Super AntiSpyware. I then ran Unhide and rKill. I got the desktop back with a couple of Word documents that would not open but the folders in the start menu where either ok files missing or empty.
I now keep getting redirected when searching but not always, also when I switch the laptop on Photshop opens up as though it is trying to open a file up,there is a message appears Photshop cannot open this kind of document.
The only program I have set to open on start up is McAfee.
I have tried a few system restores with the same result.
After system restore the laptop seems to start up ok, but the next time it is started Photoshop opens again.
I seem to be going round in circles, I really don't want to use the Restore option if at al possible.

Unable to recover using recovery discs

Persario CQ61-327sa
My hdd failed so I installed another one and used the recovery discs I made when I first got the lappy. The recovery discs run fine, but when the 3rd disc finnishes I get this error code
0xe0ef0003
I have tried 3 times with no luck.
Any ideas?

Hi:
If you can read your Windows 7 product key on the bottom of your notebook and you can live with whatever software is available on your notebook's support and driver page, you can make your own W7 installation DVD.
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
Burn the ISO using the Burn as ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

How to create recovery disc that have factory default in H320?

Hi I just bought a ideacentre H320. I want to prepare recovery discs, but when I do so, I am only given the option to backup the "current system". I did not see option in such as "Factory Default Recovery Disc" as I see in OneKey Recovery 7.0 (Mine only come with something similar called "Lenovo Rescue System 3.0".
But I don't want to back up the current system, I want to get the recovery disc to have factory image, so when I restore, it will be like I just open the the new pc from the box. How can I do that? (I know you can achieve the same thing through the "Service partition" but what if the harddisk is corrupted and you lost the partition?)
Is there any way to backup the service partition, so when I do something like upgrade Hard drive, I will not loose the ability to return my pc to factory default? Thanks.

Hi fongpwf and welcome to the community,
In figure 14, it says "Create a bootable recovery disc from system backup or factory default image file."
Are you saying that if you click the button to create the recovery discs that it only gives you the option of creating it from the system backup?
