HP Envy 4-1115dx- Keeps restarting after Recovery

Hello Champs,
I have this HP Touchsmart Envy 4-1115dx came with Windows 8 installed.
As it came with 500 GB of Hard drive as i needed 1 TB so i replaced the HDD by below steps.
1. Made HP Recovery Media Drive via 32 GB Flash Drive from Windows 8.
2. Confirmed it on 500 GB by running recovery and it worked fine.
3. Now i open the Laptop and replaced Hard Drive.
4. ran recovery via USB on 1 TB Hard DRive.
Everything gone normal and all softwares (HP default) done successfully but upon completion it restarted and since then it keep restarting again and again.
It gave some RAID volume error and i delete that volume.
I again ran recovery and it completed till same place and now again restarting after window logon screen.
Someone please Help,
Regards,
P.S.
I can install plain Windows 8 but i want to setup the Recovery back?
just searched some more and it seems that the issue caused by the RAID Volume that i delete earlier that gave me a message to go by CTRL+I? if so can i make that wolume back?
This question was solved.

They are smart enough to fetch money from customers but there are other ways to solve it and as i didnt get a reply from someone to solve so i did it my way.
You need following stuff and a little work to solve it out
WD External Drive with at least 20 GB free space
An extra computer/ laptop to make bootable USB
A Hiren CD or Acronis True ImageSoftware (First one available free and second one trial can do the magic)
Follow below steps and you''ll make it work
Insert your existing hard drive into computer (that came with your laptop)
Reset or run recovery on your computer
AFter successfull Installation
download Acronis True Image or use HIREN CD/USB to use acronis from it ---> Make a bootable USB (you can make bootable usb from their Trial version as well)
Restart your system and Boot with Acronis Bootable USB or HIREN USB or Hiren CD
Now Do a DISK BACKUP of ur whole DISK and save the image to your WD drive - remember whole DIsk not few partitions (it takes an hour to complete.
When it is done Shut Down the Laptop and Connect your new hard drive to it
Again boot from ACRONIS OR HIREN and then run RESTORE disk
Select image from WD hard drive and let it run on whole disk (same takes an hour)
When it is done shut down your computer
Remove all USB and WD Drive
It will Turn on Swiftly and your recovery from Disk and HP Recovery USB will also work on it

  • Ipod touch 4th gen needed a new screen and sleep/wake switch.  So, I replace them.  I was able to get to settings and do "erase all content and settings".  I am not able to totally shut this device off as it keeps restarting after a few seconds.

    Ipod touch 4th gen needed a new screen and sleep/wake switch.  So, I replace them.  I was able to get to settings and do "erase all content and settings".  I am not able to totally shut this device off as it keeps restarting after a few seconds.  I have used itunes to restore and also recover.  Device will actually shut off and stay shut off if I leave it connected to the computer.  The moment I unplug (3 seconds) the apple logo appears, it boots, unlock screen appears, I can unlock and operate normally, unplugged or not.  Just cant get it to completely shut down unplugged.  Any thoughts?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
      - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem. Maybe you installed a bad component or damaged something during the repair/replacement.
    Apple will not help since you worked on the iPod yourself.

  • Computer keeps restarting after installing windows 8

    Can you help my computer keeps restarting after I installed Windows 8?  I have the minidump file zipped

    We do need the actual DMP file as it contains the only record of the sequence of events leading up
    to the crash, what drivers were loaded, and what was responsible.
    You may be able to get the DMP files without crashing by booting into safe mode (F8) with networking.
    If you are overclocking stop.  (chances are if you dont know if you are, you are not)a
    To enable us to assist you with your computer's BSOD symptoms, upload the contents of your "\Windows\Minidump" folder.
    The procedure:
    * Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another (temporary) location somewhere on your machine.

  • Finder froze, restarted. Now keeps restarting after boot.

    Hi!
    The title pretty says it all.
    Finder froze completly, and I forced a restart. After the restart it keeps restarting AFTER boot. By that I mean after getting into the desktop.
    Any ideas?
    Tried a few things my self, but it just keeps restarting..
    Got a Mac mini, can the macbook somehow boot from that? I just need the data from the harddrive!

    I could not find anything the direction I was going. OK, you can start from your DVD. What happens if you just click install? If you are able to install, then your would be installing Sno over Sno, as if doing an upgrade install, in an attempt to fix your Sno installation. In principle, your files, users, apps, and settings would not be affected. But,before trying this sort of install, you will need to resolve the issue of what sort of backup you have. Most importantly you may have important unbacked up files. If so, then you might be better off going to a data recovery specialist before trying to reinstall Sno over Sno.

  • FIM Sync service keeps restarting after being disabled

    Hi - We are deploying the SharePoint User Profile Store connector and I have followed all the steps here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn511003(v=ws.10).aspx
    However the FIM Sync service keeps enabling and restarting itself - can't see anything in the event logs except a Evt ID: 2001 - Service was started successfully
    What is starting this service? How can I stop so that it remains in the disabled state?
    Thanks
    J

    Hi,
    Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to disable the FIM Sync service, but FIM Sync service keeps restarting after being disabled.
    I suggest you start the FIM Sync service again and stop it, then disable it.
    You shouldn't need to start those services manually - SharePoint will do everything itself when you start the User Profile Sync service in Central Administration.
    Restarted the User Profile Synchronization Service in Central Administration.(Central Administration -> System Settings -> Manage services on server -> User Profile Synchronization Service.)
    Stop the FIM Sync service and then disable it.
    Here are two links, you can use as a reference:

    My iPhone 6 keep restarting after I open a few apps!!! Sometimes during a call

    Hi kaiserleung,

  • Iphone keep restarting after 60 seconds

    I need help for iphone keep restarting after 60 seconds, when I update ios 5.0.1 (9A405), how to overcome these problems

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it back to factory settings would be the next step:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

  • T400 keeps restarting after being re-imaged with Ghost

    I built an XP image with the recovery disks from Lenovo.
    Now I'm trying to dump this image on to other T400's that are straight out of the box and after the image is done loading the laptop will just keep restarting.
    Please help.
    Configuration:
    - hard drive is set to ACHI (defualt)
    - did a full disk image when dumping down.
    I don't get a flashing cursor or error message the laptop will just restart aftee the Lenovo Screen.

    ashaikh, welcome to the forum,
    how did you create the image? Did you capture the 4 boot blocks using the -IB switch?
    There is a tip, a bit old and you can ignore the part about setting the predesktop area to disabled, but it should hopefully help you.
    Partition does not boot after being restored with Norton Ghost
    The title may also not seem to be 100% relevant. The important part is the -IB switch - See this thread.
    Hope this helps

  • Iphone keeps restarting after 1 minute

    went to bed last night phone was fine woke up this morning and it keeps restarting or freezing after 30 seconds to a minute. i tried re-installing my firmware but no help. does anyone have any ideas?

    Standard troubleshooting steps in order are; power the iPhone off/on, reset, restore with iTunes from the iPhone's backup, restore with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the iPhone's backup.
    If no change after these steps, time to give AppleCare a call at (800) 694-7466, or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

  • ML keeps restarting after installation! HELP!

    I have installed ML and after the installation, it keeps restarting itself. Sometimes it will make it to the desktop and other times will just restart when at grey screen. I have rebooted to disk utility using CMD+R and verified and repaired permission and it still did not help the problem. Now I have booted in safe mode, and it says my software is 10.8 (ML). The update does not show up in my app store, what is the next step to reinstalling ML or any other ideas

    So under the four options it gives me, pick the reinstall OS X option? Also, could you explain the Archive part in more detail as I have never had to do anything like this before. Thanks

  • Mail Keeps Restarting After Quit

  • WRT54GL keeps restarting after upgrading

    Good Day,
    I have a problem with my WRT54GL version 1.1 wireless router, before a few days I have upgraded the firmware to version 4.30.11 since that day if I connected my laptop or any wireless device, the router restart and keep restarting every 5 seconds .
    I think that something wrong happened in the process of upgrading that made this problem so please can any one tell me how to fix this? should it be fixed if I downgrade to the previous version?
    Thank you very much for your help...
    Fares

    After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch.  If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
    If this does not correct your problem, then try re-downloading and re-installing the firmware.  Then reset router as mentioned above.
    If you still have trouble, then downgrade to a previous firmware version.  The downgrade is done the same way as a firmware upgrade.  Be sure to reset to factory defaults after the downgrade.
    If all the above fails, and you cannot find any firmware that works, contact Linksys and see if they have any other firmware suggestions.  Sometimes they will release a beta-firmware, or find an older firmware for you to use.
    As a last resort, you could also try third party firmware, such as dd-wrt.
    Hope this helps.

  • My Mac Pro keep restarting after install OSX Mountain Lion!

    I had start up errors, took forever to start they keep restarting again and again.
    How can I fix this problems?
    Thx!!

    smc reset
    fixes (should fix) random shut downs and sleep

    it is not that, then an app may be crashing causing the OS to crash and then you may have a setting that restarts your computer should it crash.
    You might also want to attempt a reinstall from the recovery partition
    To get to the recovery partition restart your computer,  hold CMD+R down when you hear the boot up chime. Open Disk Utility first (verify your boot disk and repair if needed) and then close it and reinstall ML.

  • Macbook keeps restarting after ram and mountain lion upgrade

    I installed an 8gb ram from OWC to my macbook (late 2008 aluminum body model) and upgraded to mountain lion after having leopard for years. I decided to erase the hard disk completely and upgrade to snow leopard and then download the mountain lion software. I had installed the new 8Gb ram on leopard before any of the two upgrades. Ever since I had the upgrade the computer restarts randomly and takes me to a grey screen saying than an error ocurred. It mostly happens when watching netflix or any other type of streaming video. I tried using chrome and firefox and it only helped for a little bit. I had to take my macbook to my local apple store to get it checked and apparently the ram was not positioned correctly. After they "positioned correctly" the computer worked fine. But now a few hours later I'm back at my apartment and the computer keeps restarting. Please help me with the issue.
