HP Pavilion DM3 1039wm Notebook System Recovery Issue

HP Pavilion Dm3 currently running on Windows 7 Home Premium
About a month ago I purchased a recovery dvd from the website and a external usb cd drive.When I recieved the external usb drive in the mail and the disk I realized that I had purchased the wrong one so for days I went searching on the internet looking for an alternative way to put my netbook back to factory setting.I end up findig a solution and installed windows 7 using a downloaded iso file from the internet. After a few days the computer started acting up and so I decided to buy the right external usb dvd and cd drive.Once I got it in the mail I inserted disk 1 and it loaded up the factory image preperation so I started it and for severl hours it stayed on the same percent so I put the other disc in and made sure that my BIOS was set to run the cd drive and when I cut the computer on it says loading files and then a gray screen with constant commands keeps loading and then the computer restarts and it just keeps doing the same thing until the computer just shuts itself off.I have tried changing the BIOS back but that doesnt work either.PLEASE HELP ME

Try Cyberlink Utility cd. Download and Save the file. Once download is complete, put a blank cd in your drive and double click the file to create a boot cd. Boot with this cd and wait until you get a green check mark indicating hdd is ready. Remove the cd , insert first Recovery Disk and restart the laptop.

Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64
(but i upgraded it to windows 7 ultimate)
System Recovery is not working From HP Recovery Manager. so i cant restore my laptop to its original factory condition. (Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium).
so when i restart my computer and press Esc and then choose F11 i get this message :
"Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the
cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings, and then click "Next."

If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer
manufacturer for assistance.

Had the C partition been split/shrunk to form a new partition previously?
Does disk management show the HDD as basic or dynamic? (Start>Right-click Computer>Manage>disk management on the left).
If it has been switched to dynamic (Windows does this automatically when more than 4 partitions are present on the disk), then the F11 recovery partition won't function until it is restored to basic, but I would like to confirm that is the scenario before providing those steps.
The Disk management shows that my HDD as Dynamic, what should i do then if this is the case and the possible solution to my problem?
please help me & Thank you for your time,
This question was solved.

If you have more than 4 partitions you will need to delete the extra partition/partitions, then convert the hdd back to Basic.

HP Pavilion g6-2320tx Notebook PC - Recovery

I purchased a HP Pavilion g6-2320tx Notebook PC two weeks back. I was not able to make a recovery discs. On closer look I was surprised to know that it had six primary partitions, including two recovery drives. While making recovery discs, it (Hard Disk) crashed. My Hard Disk is replaced within 15 days of purchase. Now I am waiting for Operating Softwares Disc from HP. I just wanted to know that can I get a Recovery Drive as we get it at the time of purchase (Factory Reset). Please help.

I have a notebook pavilion dm3 -1039wm. this device no power because the switch power is damaged...

Hi.
I need replace the Switch or the card Switch. Can you help Please?
I live in Guadalajara, Jalisco. México. Can you send me this device?
Regards

You're welcome cello6996
Glad to hear that you were able to boot the computer and isolate the problem to the power button.
You may be able to find a replacement button or at least a switch you can install to replace the broken button (try searching with a search engine).
Else a new computer case would be needed (as they come with the buttons and cables). I am unsure if the HP components would fit properly in another case (wire length, form factor, etc.) so I suggest the first option of finding a way to get another start button.
Happy holidays to you as well.

HP dv4-2045dx System Recovery Issue

So.... it doesn't work.
Let me start off with how I started working on this computer. Got it from a co worker. Wouldn't turn on. Bought a replacement motherboard and plastic touchpad assembly for it, installed it after a nightmare of screws (someone got a hold of it before me and did a terrible job), and tried to run the recovery from the hard drive. That failed. Bought the recovery disc set from HP's website, and did a full format on the drive to remap bad sectors. Including the test/recovery partitions. Got the discs, tried to get it working, and failed again. Did a more thorough check of the hard drive using a live Fedora Boot disc, drive seems to report good health and only 8 remapped sectors. Found one of the two sticks of RAM were bad. Did the testing of each stick in the same slot.
Tried to reinstall again and it FAILED again. Only thing I've noticed is it seems to oddly partition the drive in a way that doesn't use the full 320 GB (i.e. 400 MB, then 70 GB, 1 GB or something like that).
Here's the log that comes up.....

So the USB floppy disk idea failed. It wouldn't boot. After doing a quick search, there appears to be no utilities online that will allow for this to happen.
And if the product is after the "End of Life" support, they will NOT change the serial number information encoded into the board. Even if you're willing to throw money at HP to make it happen.
HP could care less about you as a consumer it would seem, unlike Dell who at least provided the utility to do this procedure according to a different forum post .
Motherboard replaced need to update serial number (4216 Views)
Lessons Learned...
Never buy anything from HP again because they just want you to buy new rather than fix the old cheaply.
If you have a bad motherboard, get a generic OEM Windows disc somehow and do the install that way.
Get the drivers from their website and don't bother with a recovery disk.
If this post helped you, please feel free to respond or give Kudos. At least I've learned my lesson once and for all.

System recovery - notebook - Pavilion dv7 - Windows 7

I have been doing a system recovery/factory reset on my laptop which didn't complete the first time I tried. I found on a troubleshooting list that the wireless has to be turned on when completing this process for notebooks that have wireless LAN device which I am pretty sure that mine does but i can't get the wireless to turn on. Any suggestions?

We see a lot of posts regarding issues with Recovery. Wireless is only one of several causes. A faulty hdd, memory can also cause it.Have you tested yours using the F2 Disgnostics at boot? I have even seen at least one poster who solved his problem by removing the mSATA drive first. Many,not all, laptops have the mSATA cache disk.
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft Windows 7 license key attached to bottom of laptop , you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD The version must match the one listed on the Microsoft COA sticker.
Link to the Windows 7 ISO file downloads:
http://www.w7forums.com/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads-t12325.html
Use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to convert the ISO file to a Windows installation on DVD or USB flash drive.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool#installation
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
Next go to your support and driver page to install the drivers you need.

HP Pavilion g6-2101tu Notebook PC ,After BOIS update, Is HP Recovery Manager option available?

Hi,
I have recently installed BIOS and other drivers update through HP support assistent for the first time. During the installation a drive partition has been created with the name "HP_TOOL drive:f ".
I need your guidance for the recovery of system in the future and want to know about such partition which has been created automatically during update.
Eariler i have once recovered my system using tool which was provided by HP RECOVERY MANAGER through "esc + f11" keys. Hp recommands that we should not make any partition of drive in order to recover your system. if we make partition, we may lose system recovery through HP RECOVERY MANAGER.
I had 2 partition (Drive :c and Drive :d)of the drive by default from the begining when i have purchase my notebook but Now I have 3 (Drive: c,d,f).
Drive; c has system file while Drive: d has recovery and Drive: f contains HP_tool files.
"Please note thatI have not manually created any aprtition of drive till now."
My problems are as follows--
1. Is drive: f is a real partition of drive ?
2. Can i able to recover my system using my BIOS setting i.e esc + f11 key through HP RECOVERY MANAGER?
3. If i recover my system using HP RECOVERY MANAGER in future, i will have to download BIOS and drivers update again or what?
4: suggest me what should i do after BIOS update and with Drive:f to recover my system in the future?
My System details are as follows--
HP Pavilion g6-2101tu Notebook PC,
Product no. B6U26PA#ACJ
RAM - 2GB
Hard disk drive - 500 GB
Opreating System - Windows 7- 64 Bit Home Basic
Partition Drive :d - recovery.
Please give me a best response.,,,,,,,,,, Thanks

Yes, before Windows logo. At the first screen after powering on the machine tap Esc to bring up the Menu- same screen where you use Esc + F11 for Recovery.
Diagnostics is helpful many times in troubleshooting issues-such as testing memory or Hard drive.

HP Pavilion dv6 System Recovery disabled

I bought my HP Pavilion dv6 notebook (running Windows 7) about 2 and a half years back.
It worked beautifully for about an year and a half after which issues began to crop up. First, it was my battery that gave up (I operate it on direct power now with battery backup of around 5 minutes), then there were blue screen errors and the machine getting hot around the bottom left at times (mostly when I ran games). I still continued to use it without taking it to the techician. After a couple more months the DVD drive stopped working for no reason (it opens and closes but does not read the disks).
I had it last week when the machine's fan (I guess it's the fan) started making loud grinding noises. The noises get louder when I'm on the internet. The technician took it down and gave the fan a proper vacuum but the noise persists.
Also, the system has slowed down due to virus attacks (I suppose). There are weird advertisements on this laptop when I run sites like youtube and google. These ads that don't appear on my other laptop. Some sites take an awful lot longer to load (mostly on Google Chrome). The system also, at times, just stops responding and I have to directly switch it off without properly shutting it down.
Now, with some help from forums here I decided to run the 'System Recovery' but it displays the following message:
"Restore your computer to it's original factory condition (Disabled : Please use Recovery Media to recover your system)." I was given no disks for recovery at the time of purchase not that it would have been of any use as my DVD drive no longer works.
With some online help I also ran Hard drive and Memory tests. The Hard Drive test gives the error: "hard disk 1 quick (303)." I gather that means, my hard disk is dying a slow death now.
Now my system has ran down it's warranty and nothing seems to work. The machine seems to be in a tangle, what do I do?
I somehow would love to factory reset my laptop without an external drive. Is that Possible? What am I looking at?

I understand the problem. HERE is a thread that gives the best possible solution for the same situation.

Getting my HP Pavilion g7 with Windows 7 back to normal after a system recovery.

I did a system recovery for my HP Pavilion g7 with Windows 7 and have all of my files on a SanDisk thumb drive. How do I get my laptop's files, folders, shortcuts, applications, etc. all back to the way they were?

Hello marinegf. I understand you've lost your sound after performing a System Restore.
What is the product number for your notebook? There are many versions of the HP 2000 and this will make it easier for me to locate any appropriate software. This document can show you how to identify the notebook by the product number.
Also, it may be helpful to know what issue you encountered which led you to perform a System Restore.
The first suggestion I can offer you is to run Microsoft's Audio Troubleshooter. Here is a link to the utility.
If the troubleshooter is unable to resolve the issue I suggest you next try removing the driver and allowing Windows to perform the reinstall. I assume you're using Windows 7, so these instructions will be for Vista/7.
Click Start, type "Device Manager," and press Enter.
Expand the "Sound, video, and game controllers" section.
Right click on your audio device and select "Uninstall."
Reboot your computer and allow Windows to perform the reinstallation of the driver.
Verify whether or not you have sound and post the result!
I'll keep an eye out for your reply. I hope you have a great day!

Hp pavilion g7- 1338dx notebook pc after recovery bootmgr is missing when i started it

i have a refurbished hp pavilion g7-1338dx notebook pc with #a6z27uar#aba with windows7 home premium 64 bit. i did a factory recovery from a disc that i bought on hp because i whenever i rcover it from my harddrive i got error thats why i bought a recovery disc.anyway after recovery when i turn it on i got bsod memory management so i had to shut it down , i tried turning it on again but now its says bootmgr is missing press ctrl+alt+delete to restart , i did same thing . i tried using repair disc, memory test passed,hardware test passed. everytime i turn it on its says boot mgr ,need help

Hello @pac-man ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand after running a system recovery from the recovery media you are unable to boot the PC, and get a BOOTMGR missing error.
Take a look through this guide for BOOTMGR troubleshooting: How To Fix BOOTMGR is Missing Errors. The guide contains all of the steps to take and describes how to do each of them in a manner that any level user can understand.
If none of that works, you will need to obtain a copy of the Windows installation and run your installer. Once installed it will add a new BOOTMGR and allow you to re-run the recovery to restore your pre-installed software. The only other option would be to contact HP Phone Support for service options. You can contact HP Technical Support at 1-800-474-6836 in North America. For all other regions click here.

HP Pavilion dv6500 Entertainment Notebook PC series Operating system not found

Hello to all how are you doing guys doing today I'm having a problem and need the help from the tech world. So i have a Hp Pavilion dv6500 cto notebook. I started it up and got a black screen stating "Operating System Not Found". I couldnt get into safe mode to recover back to a safe point, i was able to get into the bios system to do a memory and Hard drive test, my memory test came back as a Pass but my Hard drive came back as a fail and stated "Replace Hard Drive".
Now i went out bought a new WD 500GB 5400rpm hard drive for the laptop, i installed it and did a Hard Drive test to make sure it was good and the test came back as a Pass. Now i had this laptop for years since 2007 and it broke just a few months ago, i just got the new hard drive yestarday and was playing doctor last night. When i got the laptop as a gift i was only given a recovery disk which did boot up and gave me the install now option and repair computer option. I chose the install now option and it was starting to install but then got this error message "Windows cannot open the required file D:\Sources\Install.wim. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070002." I read that you cant install windows from a recovery disk so now im back to square one.
So current status is I got a new hard drive that pass the bios test, memory test was a pass. I have no windows disk other then the windows vista recovery disk i tried but failed to install windows. I also tried a windows 7 disk from work but the disk wouldnt boot up came back with a message stating that disk couldnt be read there may be problem with the cd dvd drive or hard drive, but when i put in the windows vista recovery disk that boot up no problem. i just cant install window with it. So Im stuck with a black screen stating no operating system is not found. Note that i havent change the boot up line up back to hard drive to see if it would boot up the new hard drive but i dought it would change anything since its a brand new hard drive with nothing on it.
If someone could help me with step by step like how to get an operating system on my new hard drive. My wife has a laptop but with no cd drive so i would need instruction to boot get it on the usb. Hope i was helpful with my problem.

You have only tried questionable disks. You could order a recovery disk from HP but I am not even sure they still have Vista recovery disks. You could also buy a Windows 7 OEM disk and try that. it will cost you a bit but will be legal. What version of Vista is it? You can also try to find a Vista install disk and use the Key Code on the bottom of the laptop if it is still legible. Here is a link to downloadable .iso files you can use to make a Vista install disk that will activate with your Key Code:

Hp pavilion dv6 3034nr system recovery

I have a 3 year old HP Pavilion DV6 3034nr Entertainment Notebook having Win 7 home premium installed that I wish to restore to factory settings.I made another partion and changed the drive letters of existing partions. I have either lost or never made system recovery discs. Now how can i do that....

Hi there:
Follow this useful document:
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01867418
If the recovery partition in the laptop HDD has been corrupted or removed, then you may not be able to recover to factory using that. But you can by ordering recovery USB from HP directly & using that.
