I have hp pavilion dv6-6080se my recovery removed help

my notebook recovery (pavilion dv6-6080se) removed

Hi,
To get the Recovery Partition back, you would need to perform a 'Factory Reset' using your Recovery DVDs/media - remember to back-up any of your personal files first.
If you don't have these discs, you can order a replacement set using the link below.
Order HP Recovery Discs.
If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

Try reviewing this post to see if any of the information in it helps you as this case sounds very similar. The thread also has a link to a YouTube video that worked for someone.

Also, did you try the two methods in this document exactly as they are outlined? As long as there is no underlying hardware issue, it should work.
http://goo.gl/WQb43
You mentioned you tried the pen drive method and it did not work. What exactly did not work about it? Any error messages? What were the exact steps taken?

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.

HP Pavilion DV6 Restore/Data Recovery

I'm taking a look at a friend's laptop that was acting up. It refused to connect to the internet and when/ if it ever did the screen would go completely white locking you out of even task mngr. I installed AVG Free and detected a couple trojans. The problem seems resolved. It was working fine with several restarts until Windows detected updates.
After installing the updates and restarting Windows seems unable to display anything past the login background. Booting the windows diagnostic or system recovery leads to the same login background. Neither user account is displayed and there's nothing to do besides a hard shutdown.
I was able to open the HP Advanced System Diagnostics and ran a Start-up Test. It returned a DST failure with a failure ID of 94get9-5086ab-xd0021-60t803. The HDD is a 320Gb WDC WD3200BEKT-60V5T1.
I would love to simply perform a system restore but I have two problems. First, I need a way to back up the important user files. Second, I need a functioning method for performing a restore.
I'm able to boot into Linux from a USB but I can't get the HDD to mount. I don't know if the drive is encrypted or not. If anyone has advice for me on this I'd be grateful cause I'm not sure how to go about it. I don't have any hardware to connect the HDD to another system so I'll need to get the current OS working or find a way to boot to another that can access the drive.
As for the system recovery, since the default method isn't loading, is there something I can download from HP that will boot from a CD or USB? Or, is there another way to perform a restore outside of starting up Windows?
This question was solved.

Hi:
A DV6 would most likely have a W7 Home Premium OS installed.
See if rubbing the product key with a jelly bean works. It does from time to time if the key isn't too obliterated.
If you have a W7 home premium disk already (that you just used for a fresh install), just use the product key from the notebook to activate.
Otherwise, do this...
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.
http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-from-digital-river/
If the jelly bean trick doesn't work, you will be forced to purchase a set of recovery DVD's because they don't need a product key to work.

Pleae contact H support. Error code: 0xe0ef000d
and when I going to restart the device the following msg. coming:
No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
FYI : I Bios setting on Default
PLZ

Refrain from the no added value comment. It is not appreciated. This is a volunteer forum.
Answer the questions from the previous post before you ask questions beyond the original one. If you don't answer then I will move on to a thread where someone whom needs help will cooperate in trubleshooting an issue.
If you have anything plugged into a usb port remove it. Do not touch any keys while performing a system recovery.
Why did you ask the questions about the partition types? Did you modify or change the partition types? If you modified the recovery partition to dynamic then a recovery will not work.
Did you make a recovery disk set or a usb recovery media flash disk?

HP Pavilion DV6 Model: 3307sz Recovery Disk Missing

Hi
My notebook recovery disks are missing. How can i download the recovery disk?
Awaiting For Solution
Praveen

Uh....
Sorry but your model doesn't have reocvery disk to order yet.
What you could do is to use a backup software or the preinstalled microsoft backup tool to do a partition like C drive backup.
When your system fails, you could restore it without starting over with factory defult and all that stuff.
Sorry because of different timezone I might not be able to help/reply you right away.IF that happens I deeply apologize!

HP pavilion dv6 restoration incomplete after recovery

I recently try to facotry reset my Hp pavilion dv6 using the recovery usb I make with the HP program when I brought this laptop, but it said "restoration incomplete".
I have ran the hard drive check and mem test at the BIOS and there isnt any problem. I also did a full format on the hard drive and it works. So I dont think there are any bad sector on hard drive.
I did factory reset, miniimze windows install...all the option I can had on the recovery problem but It doesnt work.
Once It finish the installation and laptop is restart, it automatically boot into the HP recovery program and said "restoration incomplete".
I am wondering how can I find my license product key so I can install a windows 7 or any other solution?
Thank you

Sorry no solution for you but I to have a DV6 that no longer allows the DVD drive, bluetooth, web cam, wi-di and probably a load of other things to work to work. I've never been able to make back ups of my settings so like you want to start again. Please HP answer this question as I'd love to try Windows 7 also. P.s. never had so much trouble with a laptop!!!! Runs hot, can't system restore, can't use the simple things I'm used to on any other laptop!!

Just help me,pleaseeeeeeee

Hi:
You may have to purchase a set of HP recovery disks or if you can read all 25 characters of the W7 product key on the bottom of your notebook (DON'T POST IT), you can do this...
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.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1260se with factory installed operating system of Vista. When booting up the computer, I receive a blue screen with this error message: STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}.

I do not have recovery disks for this computer. I tried to order them but them seem to not be available. This is my daughter's computer. She says she started to have trouble after downloading Frost Wire (music share) and then she removed it. We tried going back to an earlier time and that didn't help and then the blue screen with error message appeared. What do I do now?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Assuming your in the US, recovery discs are available to order for that model here. That may be the best option.
You should also be able to do a recovery without the discs as well. Take a look at this document: Recover Windows Vista Operating System Using HP Recovery, and look for the section Restore the PC to its original condition with the HP Recovery Manager if Windows Vista is not accessible. This should allow you to recover the PC.

Hp pavilion dv6 6180 help me for this error when I am using my recovery disk

hp pavilion dv6 6180 help me for this error when I am using my recovery disk
The destination drive is not connected

Hello Mohammadshamlou. I understand that you're having some issues using your Recovery Disc. It is giving you the error that the drive is not connected. Is this correct? How long have you had the notebook?
What issue originally led you to want to try a recovery?
The error seems to imply that it is not detecting the hard drive as this would be the most logical destination drive. So, I feel the best thing to try first is verify that the hard drive is in proper working order. Follow these steps and please post the result.

HP Pavilion dv6 1334us won't start after windows update, stuck in Error Recovery

My computer is an HP Pavilion dv6 1334us with 32bit-windows 7. The computer did automatic updates and when it started up said there was another one avaliable through WIndows Updater. I installed the update and it said the computer needed to restart for the update to take effect. I choose to restart and the computer wouldn't boot back up, it boots to the 'Windows Error Recovery' screen where my options are 'Launch Startup Repair (recommended)' and 'Start Windows Normally'. When I select the repair, it says it loads windows files, then goes back to the error recovery screen. When I choose to start normally, it freezes the second it trys to start, flashes a blue screen and then returns to the Error Recovery page again.

HP Pavilion dv6-6b47dx gets "Restoration Incomplete" from Recovery Manager.

I got my son's older HP Laptop, and decided to restore it before using it for myself. Previously it was working OK. An HP Pavilion dv6-6b47dx gets "Restoration Incomplete" from the Recovery Manager. I have tried running the recovery manager from both the HD partion and the DVD media I created. The HD and Memory pass. The wireless f12 key is off, and can not be turned back on from the keyboard. Some previous post have suggested the wireless being off could be a problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Hi
No that Recovery media won't work in your laptop.
ISO file can be used to clean install. You'll have to get all the 25 character alphanumeric product activation key printed on the COA label on the back of your laptop to be clearly & legibly readable for activation of ISO after install.
Tutorial: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/219487-clean-reinstall-factory-oem-windows-7-a.html
For additional drivers you can get them here:
https://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=5197401&soft...
AMD chipset driver :
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows%207%20-%2064
Download, save them to a USB and install them from there during/after Win 7 installation.
You have to first install chipset, restart system - then audio driver-restart, graphic driver- restart, ethernet controller(LAN), network controller(WLAN & Bluetooth), card reader, touchpad , Protect smart hard drive protection driver, quick launch software in order.
I could see that your model came with Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) pre installed.
Here is the ISO file:
http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-58997.iso
Windows 7 Home Premium x64 English
Size: 3,243,070KB, MD5 hash: a319b5826162829c436306bebea7f0ff
Source: http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325/page-2#post-124821
Download , save it to another PC, then make a bootable DVD/USB by mounting this ISO on to it by using software like Imgburn (choose lowest speed while burning to DVD).
Imgburn : http://www.imgburn.com/
This will be your Windows 7 installation disc.
