Dv6 recovery disc

Hello!
I have been on the phone with HP (2+ Hours) with no success. I purchased a HP DV6 in Dubai: Product #A7M81EA#ABV.
I wiped my conputer clean and need a recovery disc, they will not ship me a recovery disc from HP US because I bought it in Dubai. Suggestions? Thanks...Steve

Hi, Steve,

HP DV6 recovery discs

My son left my xd card in my HP DV6 laptop last night. He shut it down, and when it was turned back on the laptop goes into a recovery start program. It turns off and goes right back into it when I turn it back on. I have two recovery discs for the laptop that were created when I bought the computer. I put in the first disc and rebooted. It won't read the disc. The recovery start program keep going on. How do I get the laptop to recognize the recovery disc?

Did you remove the xd card?
Disconnect all external; devices from the notebook
Shut down the notebook, Disconnect all external; devices from the notebook, disconnect AC and remove main battery, hold the power button down for 30 seconds.
Connect AC only, see if it will boot normally.

Recovery disc - what do they do exactly?? Help!

I have a Satellite P25 S507. Had all sorts of problems to the point where I couldn't do anything.
I found my discs and ran them according to instructions (see below). After 14 hours it said it
was finished and I removed the disc, hit "any key" and absolutely nothing happened. I rebooted
and nothing happened. What exactly was it supposed to "re-install"?? Any suggestions on what I should
do now?? Is my laptop just ready for the junkyard even though I hate the thought of that??
Information:
The printed instructions included with the Recovery and Applications/Drivers Media disc are correct for most computer models. For some models, however -- including those listed above -- booting from the Recovery disc requires pressing the F12 key, rather than the 'C' key. The instructions below are correct for these models.
CAUTION: The Recovery process reformats the computer's hard disk drive, which completely erases its contents -- including all applications, all documents, and all other data stored on the drive. Be sure to back up your documents and other data before following the instructions below.
Follow these steps to erase the current contents of the hard disk drive and to re-install all of the software that was installed on the computer when it was manufactured:
1. With the computer on, insert the first Recovery disc into the optical drive.
2. Shut down the computer (click the Start button, click Shut Down, select Shut Down, click OK).
3. Press the computer's power button to turn the computer on, and then immediately press and hold the F12 key. Release the F12 key when the menu of boot options appears.
4. Use the arrow keys to navigate to the CD/DVD option. Press the Enter key to select it.
The computer will restart, and will boot from the Recovery disc.
5. Follow the instructions on the screen to start the Recovery process.
CAUTION: Once the Recovery process has begun, do not interrupt it.
The computer's hard drive will be formatted, erasing its contents. All of the software that was installed on the computer when it was manufactured will then be re-installed.
6. Once the Recovery process is complete, remove the Recovery disc, and press any key to restart the computer.

Figure out what brand of hard drive is installed.
Go to their website and download their self booting diagnostic utility.
Create the self booting disk and run it on your system to test the drive.

When you do get it downloaded, before you do anything else, save the Lion installer - make a copy and put it somewhere safe. you can then reuse, make a clean install and other things.

Hard drive replacement with recovery disc problems - Windows Troubleshooter Error 0x8E5E0247

I have a 2009 Satellite A505 laptop
64-bit Operating System with Windows 7 Home Premium, 4 gigs of RAM, and Intel Duo CPU, 2.20GHz
The original Toshiba 500 GB Hard drive finally gave up the ghost and I replaced it yesterday with a WD Scorpio Blue HD Model WDBABC500ANC-NRSN (SATA 8 MB :Mo Cache 5400 RPM)
Easy, straight forward replacement. No problems.
I got out my Recovery Discs which I created using the Toshiba recovery disc utility back in 2009. As I remember, at the time, the process of creating these discs was easy, and it was the first thing I did after registering my computer.
The process created 5 discs, which the last, number 5, is the Applications and Drivers. I have done this process before on other computers (Gateway and Toshiba) and it is usually pretty straight forward and problem free.
Not so this time, and have to wonder about the Toshiba Recovery Discs that were created! Why aren't these working correctly?
I followed the normal process to boot the new Hard Disc on the DVD Recovery Disc 1, and everything seemed to work normally. I followed every "next" prompt, and installed each new Disc 2, and 3 as prompted.
After Disc 3, it said it was finished, and then went throught the Toshiba unpacking and the Windows installation process with multiple re-starts and Window start ups. Again, everything seemed normal, except I wondered why I never received a prompt for Dsc 4 which was unused in the recovery process. Is that normal?
During the Toshiba automatic unpacking and installation process, where various drivers were being installed, Windows errors began returning that said something like this, "Windows requires a digitally Signed driver, and the driver is unavailalbe and could not be activated in Windows 7 . Programs relying on them may not work. "
The problem drivers included the Realtek RTL8191 SE Wireless Lan 802.11n PCWE, the Richo pcle memory stick, Realtek High Definition Audio, Video Controller, Richo PCLe SD/MMC Host Conroller. and a few others....
I did not touch the keybroad or intervere in anyway, and let the installation process proceed until everything was installed. I then went through the first Windows start up process where you set the region, time and create the USER ID, set the adminstrator rights and even got the Toshiba Registration prompt.
When finished, I noticed that the sound was not working, nor was the Wireless Network Connection, and when I attempted the usual Windows network Trouble Shooting process, it returned a Windows Error which said "A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting"
I then viewed the error details. They said...
Package ID: Unknown
Path: C:\windows\diagnostics\system\networking
Error Code: 0x8E5E0247
USER: mvh-PC\mvh
Context: Restricted
I then went to MS Windows 7 Troubleshooting forum on the internet using another computer.
I followed all the 'cmd' processes for "supposedly" solving these problems by running System File Checker [SFC] scan on the computer which was supposed to replace the missing or corrupt files.
Well, no joy. The issue presists.
After some problems accessing the CBS log, I was able to view it, and it provides no useful information as to why the errors where unable to be corrected.
I tried following everything on this MS How to Use File Checker document:
In my CBS file I got a lot of SQM "Failed to start" and "Failed to read" and "Failed to upload" and CSI "Repair results created"....
but did not get any "Cannot repair member file" type of messages to use the 'cmd'
takeown /f Path_And_File_Name function
I then started over. Rebooted the computer again, starting with Recovery Disc 1 and several hours later was back to the same problem. Geeze
I have checked all the various Device drivers that are shown as not working in the Device Manager. I have tried uninstalling them all, and then re-installing them both automatically during Windows 7 start up, and also from the Recovery Disc 5 which had the original drivers. Nothing works.
When I clicked on "Connect to the Internet" on the Windows Control Panel, I am returned a prompt that says "Windows did not detect any networking hardware" and so,even with a direct Ethernet connection to my cable modum, I was unable to download any Windows updates or new drivers to see if that fixes anything.
I am stumped.
Any suggestions out there? I don't want to waste a lot of money paying for more technical help for an aging laptob. If this is beyond a simple fix, then I think I will just go and buy a new cheap computer from Asus having wasted the ~$70 bucks for the hard drive for this one.
It shouldn't be this hard, should it?
I have considered buying new recovery discs directlly from Toshiba, but if the process that came with the computer can't create correct discs that work the first time, what promise do I have that another $29.95 won't just be a waste of money too?
Thanks for any helpful hints about what I may be missing or overlooking.
Regards

I think we can close this one out as 95% solved. I did get the Intel (R) Rapid Storage Technology loaded after installing the Intel (R) Chipset Software Installation Utility. The instrustions were not the simpliest for the novice, and it took me a while to figure out if my system was running in RAID or ACHI mode. I decided that it was ACHI, so could proceed, even though I did NOT find this information in the Device Manager where they said I should have...
Also, it was a little confusing on the Intel site which file to download. I first did the zip file, (f6flpy-x64.zip) but could not figure how to execute it or put it on a disc, so downloaded the (iata_enu.exe) and hope it was the right one for a 64 bit system.
Anyway, I am now connected via Ethernet cable to my modem, and down loading 126 Windows Updates which should take a while.
My only other issue, that I am aware of is that I do not seem to have any Wireless Lan software, and even though I have added Lan drivers via the recovery Disc, they do not show up anywhere.. Will have to figure out what is going on here, and why it isn't working...
Maybe it is related to something in the Device Manager called
"Other Devices" Under that I have 4 items not working. They are listed like this...
Base System Drive,
Base System Drive (a duplicate?)
Network Controller
Video Controller.
I have tried uninstalling them, and allowing Windows to reinstall, but they still are not activated. Not sure what this is for, and how to update it, but will search some more on another forum thread for these issues. Maybe I will try again after all my Windows updates are done and see what happens.
Thanks again for your help. If you have any other insights on the Wireless issue, that would be great. It is turned on, but in the Windows tray, I only get the Ethenet Icon option, and it does not see or present wireless connection options like before. I am sure this is something simple.

Unfortunately, HP don't have a download option for this, but you can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below - the cost may vary a little depending where in the world you live, but they're generally inexpensive.
Order HP Recovery Discs.
If you have any problem with this link, see if you can order them directly from HP.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

Hi , I own a hp pavilion dv6 6050se laptop bought in UAE during 2011, I have lost the recovery discs

Hi , I own a hp pavilion dv6 6050se laptop bought in UAE during 2011, I have lost the recovery discs.
How do i get a copy of recovery discs??

Hi,
I don't see any link on your Product Page to order a replacement set of Recovery Discs, but it's always worth calling HP directly and see if you can order them this way.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
If you are unable to order these discs from HP, here's an alternative option you could try.
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

Any additional drivers and software you may need can be found Here.

X301 - Problem creating Product Recovery Disc

Hello,
I recently purchased an X301 laptop and have been trying to create a product recovery disc but to no avail.
Shortly after I begin the process, I get a message saying "Drive is not ready or is busy performing another operation."
Can anyone please suggest what might be the problem?
The DVD burner is a Mat**bleep**a dvd-ram UJ-844 and I am using a SONY DVD+R DL disc.
Thanks.

machdeuce, welcome to the forum,
which OS do you have installed?
I have noticed that, using Vista, that the Vista "autoplay" function interferes with creating recovery discs. It sort of "takes over the drive". When required, insert the blank disc and click on the OK button before the Vista " autoplay has a chance to run. The autoplay dialogue field will come up and show the usual; copy files to disc etc., but you can then just close it without worry as the R&R has already received it's "orders" and will continue without problems.
Hope this helps

Hi:
Yes you can.
Here are the instructions and you should be all set.
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 ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
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.

Windows 8 Pro (OEM Activation required) operating system recovery disc

We bought a Thinkcentre M72Z PC with a windows 7 downgrade. The PC came with the Windows 8 Pro (OEM Activation required) operating system recovery disc but I cannot load Windows 8 from it. Does anyone know what steps I have to take to use this disc? It says the media is provided for recovery purposes, but it is not like an install disc.

First, the discs that you have do not include Windows, so you are stopped right there. What you had in mind might have worked, but the first thumbdrive has to be made bootable before copying the files on the disc to the thumbdrive.
Have you tried going into Windows and change the language it uses? I am not sure if installing the language pack is all you need to do. I believe it will only get you part way.

C655s5307 satelitte recovery disc problem

Hi, I'm new to the forum and have just purchased the above. I did alot of research and Toshiba seemed the best way to go. I tried to make my recovery discs 1st thing and the first disc had an error and the rest were okay. I then tried to load Kaspersky antivirus after using the norton uninstall to remove norton so I could install Kaspersky and Kaspersky said norton was still there even though I can find no traces of it anywhere so I could not install it. I called Toshiba and they helped me resore my laptop back to it's original state using f8. Norton was there as a free 30 day trial so I activated it and will remove and try to install Kaspersky later. Now I am trying to make my recovery discs again and when I went to my Toshiba and clicked on the recovery media creator it said the link was no good and did I want to delete it so I did. Now there is nothing to take me to the recovery media creator again. I was on the phone with Toshiba again for 20 minutes and the music quit playing and now one was there. Ant ideas how to create my recovery discs? Thanks, Mike

You might be better off just buying a set. Reading through posts here combined with my own experience, these disks aren't trust worthy. I've made recovery disks for my Gateways and Acer computers that worked great, but tried using the ones I made for this Toshiba Satellite computer yesterday, and it took five tries to get them to work - no problems burning them however.

Problem creating Recovery Discs with HP Probook 4530s Notebook PC.

I have a HP ProBook 4530s Notebook computer my daughter gave me. It is 5 months out of warranty. I had to recover it using Recovery Manager and the recovery partition. The OS is W7 Home Premium 64 bit.
An HP support document says that I can create Windows 7 recovery discs using DVD-R media. It says to click Start, then All Programs, then Recovery Manager.
The problem is there is no Recovery Manager in All Programs. I want to create recovery discs instead of relying on the recovery partition.
I called HP and they had no explanation. I asked them if the instructions were wrong or were they right but for some reason Recovery Manager was missing from All Programs. All they could tell me is to recover it using the recovery partition by restarting the computer and then pushing F11 for the Recovery Manager. That works to recover the computer but NOT to create recovery discs.
Is there any way to create Recovery discs?

Hi
Not without the recovery manager, which is not included on every HP business notebook.
My HP Elitebook 6930p came with a recovery partition but no recovery disks, recovery manager program to make recovery disks.
And it cannot be downloaded.
If you live in the USA, call HP at this number, 1-800-334-5144 and order a set of recovery disks.
You will need to provide the model number and serial number to the customer support rep.
Since the notebook is out of warranty, there will be a charge of $10 for the set of recovery disks.
