HP Pavilion dv6500 recovery system error 0x400100200001005

Hi, I have HP Pavilion dv6663cl notebook and the drive broke. It can not be recovered thus I replaced with new retail drive.
I run the recovery system from dvd but failed at 51% and gave the error 0x400100200001005. I tried several times but it always failed at 51% and same error.
I run hdd diagnostics from bios and the new hdd passed.
The recovery dvd was created with the original hdd. I used it before and it was successful to do recovery on the original drive.

Two possible causes.
1-Is the new hard drive at least as large a capacity as the original? Can be larger but not smaller.
2-Is the new hard drive an Advanced Format hdd-usually stamped with AF on label.

Hp pavilion dv6 recovery system with win 7 dvd image not found

Hello everyone, I have a hp pavilion dv6 I going to restore the operating system win 7 that I previously saved in an image of the system in 2 DVDs. I need to restore the entire computer because I do not want to lose all installations made within a year , including software installations regularly purchased online which do not have the original CDs . I tried to go in :
1 - "Backup and Restore Computer"
2 - Control Panel and select the " Restore system settings or your computer "
3 - then " advanced recovery methods "
4 - next page select " Use a system image you created earlier to recover your computer "
5 - At this point it asks me to do a backup, but I do not care because the computer is pretty much with the factory settings as has just returned from assistance hp and after ignoring the message I restart the computer in recovery mode expecting to reinstall the system with the image .
After a series of steps at the time to reload the image from the second DVD that I had previously saved , the computer can not find even one image to be restored where am I wrong?
Thanks Acitano

Hi Acitano,
I understand you are having issue with restoring your computer. Here is a document on how to do that when windows 7 will not start normally.

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:

Time Machine error message while restoring..."an error occurred while adding a recovery system to the destination disk

I had to change my hard drive in my MBP 15". I use Time Machine on a Time Capsule for backup. I am booting up my laptop with a bootable USB key. I have partitioned my new hard drive (bigger than the old one) and named it Macintosh HD (same as the old one). I select the option to restore from Time Machine Backup. I select one of my latest backup....select my destination drive...the restore process starts but stop within minutes with the following message. "An error occurred while adding a recovery system to the destination disk" It then prompts me to restart....
I need your help...what can it be.
Thanks

I've encountered this issue when the Time Machine was encrypted with FileVault.
Article: HT4718
Additional Information
Please note that OS X Recovery must be present on the computer's startup volume in order to use FileVault 2. Using RAID partitions or a non-standard Boot Camp partition on the startup disk may prevent OS X from installing a local Recovery system. See "OS X: Some features of Mac OS X are not supported for the disk (volume name)" for more information.
What seems to work, is reinstalling the OSX from the internet, and then using migration assistant to pull the user from the time machine backup external when logged into a temporary administrator user to move the original user back over.
Perhaps if you're stubborn, what would work is the following from the same article:
What to do if the installer warns that no Recovery System can be created
Some disk partition configurations may result in the OS X installer reporting that it could not create a Recovery System. In these situations, even if you are permitted to continue the install, you may want to quit the installation and create an external, bootable OS X hard drive with a Recovery System, first. You can continue your OS X upgrade on your computer's startup drive after creating an external Recovery System.
Your storage device must have at least 13 GB available (after formatting) to install OS X Lion or later and a Recovery partition.
These steps erase and reformat the storage device. This article instructs you on setting up a storage device to use the GUID partition scheme and the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format, which are required to install OS X and a Recovery partition on your external storage device. You should back up any important files that are on the device to a different drive.
This procedure installs a version of OS X that is compatible with the Mac it was created with. Using this OS X system with a different Mac model may produce unpredictable results.
Your computer's serial number is sent to Apple as part of this process to help authenticate your request to download and install OS X Lion.
All of this information was collected by browsing through the public articles on the Apple Support website.

2 probs! HDD Formatted and no recovery discs and "1962 NO Operating System" error message

Hi, I have had my Lenovo Idecentre B540 for approx 2 weeks now and my hard drive had to be formatted and windows reinstalled. However, this means the partition is lost and i had no recovery disc or drivers disc with it so have been unable to get the touchscreen working and probably missing out on all the features that were the reasons for buying this machine.
Running Windows 7 home premium and have downlaoded all the drivers from the support page on here but nothing there for the touch panel drivers and cant find it or ideatouch 4.5 online either.
I would like a disc sending to me or a link to be able to downlaod please.
Also now i have had
"1962 no operating system" error message when booting. ANy known reason for this? Lots of guesses online but no concrete answer.

You might look at this thread and you might also do a search: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/IdeaCentre-Desktops-Home-Servers/LENOVO-IDEACENTRE-B540-ONE-KEY-RECOVERY...

Mountain Lion install error: "Cannot be installed because a recovery system can't be created". What does this mean?

How can I install Mountain Lion OS... I get error message saying a Recovery System can't be created... Any help or ideas out there?

After a week of dealing with AppleCare we discovered there was a corrupted recovery disk on my hard drive when i upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion, therefore not allowing the upgrade to Mountain Lion. So ended up backing up the computer, then formatting the computer and reloading SNOW LEOPARD then upgraded straight to Mountain Lion, then restored my user files. This has worked, and am so grateful to AppleCare for their tireless help with diagnosing and helping to sort this out! they've been fantastic!

Can't restore from Time Machine "error occurred adding a recovery system"

Here's the situation:
MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard was upgraded to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
A Time Machine backup exists (on Time Capsule) from the day before the upgrade.
I am trying to restore the Time Machine backup to a blank hard drive connected to the MacBook via FIrewire, but after rebooting with Command-R and selecting the backup source and HD destination I keep getting this (unhelpful) messages:
"An error occured while adding a recovery system to the destination disk" and "the recovery system could not be added"
Is what I am attempting impossible, or is there something else going on? What use is Time Machine if I can't restore?

Hi FranzKafka
I know it has been a while since your question, but the issue is possibly dependent on the blank HD, h=was it changed from the GUID partitioning? If so change back and you will find the Time Machine will restore back... without having to reinstall OSX. As you say, all of the original settings are captuered within TM.

"Recovery system can't be created" error when reinstalling Lion from recovery system

I get the infamous OS installation error "Install failed... because a recovery system can't be created" – but in fact, the recovery system already exists, since I'm installing from it, and incidentally, I've previously already used it for an Internet reinstallation. I've tried about a half dozen iterations now.
Here's the exact sequence of events:
Reboot on recovery drive.
Select option to reinstall the OS from the network.
License agreement, etc; then select drive -> install -> sign into Apple store.
"Downloading additional components" message. 1st attempt consistently fails at this stage, need to restart at step 2.
Download for roughly 20 minutes, then automatic reboot -> "Installing Mac OS X".
After about 10 minutes: "Install failed. Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer. Mac OS X can't be installed on the disk ..., because a recovery system can't be created. Visit www.apple.com/support/no-recovery to learn more."
I've pawed through innumerable posts of people who have gotten the same error message, but haven't found one that reproduces my circumstances. I've reviewed the KB articles "OS X: About OS X Recovery" and "OS X Lion: Installer reports This disk cannot be used to start up your computer", with no luck. Based on a suggestion in the second KB article, I've reduced the primary partition size by roughly a GB and retried - no luck.
See this thread if you want to know why I'm reinstalling the OS, even though it's (more or less) functioning and I have Time Machine backups. It would also make me feel a lot better to know that the reinstallation would work in case of real need. Thanks in advance for any help.

John,
I think I'm "reinstalling OS X by booting OS X Recovery": I reboot with command-R depressed, or I reboot with Alt depressed and choose the recovery parition, and then I start the installation process from the list of things I can do. Are we talking about the same thing?
Yes, exactly.
I think that OS X Internet Recovery would be necessary only if you were to attempt a Lion installation with a completely empty HD, implying that even a Recovery partition has not been created. Your USB flash drive is the way to cope in that circumstance. If you can install Lion by booting the recovery partition as you described, it seems to me that it is all that is necessary and there is nothing to fix, despite the error message you see.
I'm surprised that Internet Recovery works at all, given that your Mac is not one of those allegedly eligible to use it.
Without a similar 2006 iMac to test, I can only speculate that the "abysmal distribution system" as baltwo describes it just doesn't work well with earlier Macs, and that Apple may not have tested it extensively with them. If I were you I would rely upon that USB installer much more than OS X Recovery or OS X Internet Recovery. I prefer not to rely upon any installation method that can possibly result in "the server is not available at this time" or such nonsense, but that is the direction in which Apple has been going for a long time.
An OS X installation log exists at /var/log/ that you can examine using Console, probably named "install.log". Deciphering it is another challenge.

Recovery system power was shutoff while running. now debug error always pops up.

I have a Hp 65 notebook. When was running the recovery system the power was shutoff. Now Debug error pops up at the bottom it says abort-retry-ignore. When I hit any of those squares. The next box says systems recovery options. Below that it says. The installed program cannot start. Click ok to turn off computer.

Stevealex,
Okay, no problem.
What you are going to need to do is order a set of operating system disk for this computer. Since you were in the middle of a recovery and the computer turned off, that crashed the process and it didn't successfully re-write the operating system and drivers back to the computer.
To provide you the best way to order those disks, I need the full make and model of the computer you have. You provided HP 65 but I was unable to locate that notebook anywhere. Here is a link that might help you find the information.
Please respond back at your earliest convenience.
Thanks

Hi,
I tried the link said above but didnt help. I was still getting the same error.
What I tried is loading a OS of different vesion (in my case XP Professional). This loaded succesfully and I could recover some of my data. For some data, I am getting access rights error.
I am finding out if there is any way I can fully recover my data.
Thanks for your help,

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Hard disk drives and recovery systems

I have a Hp Pavilion g4-1016dx system, I have ran the system check and get a quick check Hard Disk 1 303 message. I realize my hard disk is going out, my system did not come with a recovery disk upon purchase. Is there any way of downloading the recovery system to disk or a USB drive from a different computer? Also, I was told the hard disk is not completely shot, I had just downloaded pictures and other items the day before the HDD failure, is there any way to salvage these myself without having to pay someone $$$ to recover these items?
Any help is greatly appreciated as I am technology challenged.
Thanks

Hi,
First, regarding your existing files, try the following.
One possible way to try and retrieve your files from a non-booting drive is to follow the process detailed in the link below. The Ubuntu operating system CD you create can run from the CD alone ( ie it doesn't have to install on the Hard Drive ) and I've often found it to be successful in retrieving data even from a failing Hard Drive. When you've created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can back up your existing files.
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/use-ubuntu-live-cd-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-windo...
Another option would be to remove the HDD, place it in an external caddy - an example is on the link below - connect this to another PC and see if you can access your files.
External HDD Caddy 2.5".
Secondly, regarding reinstalling Windows 7 on a replacement HDD, there are Two options available.
1. You can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below - these will reinstall the operating system, all required drivers and nearly all of the original software ( the exception often being trials of MS Office ). They will also re-create all the original partitions, including the Recovery Partition.
Order HP Recovery Discs.
2. Another option you could consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.
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.
Also, if possible, back-up the swsetup folder that can be found at the root of your C drive on your failing HDD.
You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your notebook - this is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit ) 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 ( Digital River ).
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.
http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/how-to-activate-windows-7-by-phone.aspx
Regarding the drivers etc you need, if you were able to back-up the swsetup this will contain all the software and driver installers for your notebook - if you weren't able to, drivers and software you may need can also be found Here.

CD/DVD drive not recognized in hp pavilion dv6500

I have a problem with my CD/DVD drive.
My hp pavilion dv6500 laptop is not recognize the drive, dos not show up in the device manager, I right click on the IDE adapters to scan for changes, I hold down the F9 to see the start up order of the drives it’s OK accordingly to factory settings and I would like to ask some one help or advice what to do. My cd/dvd drive was working when I installed the new operating system from the CD on the new WD SATA hard drive. I have not portioned the new HD during installation of the OS because I need all the space on the HD. When I checked the drive letters I only have seen a C drive. Missing the call letter for the CD/DVD drive ‘example E’ for the cd/dvd drive.
The commuter is running great now, but I using an external HP CD drive to install all my software. I using the Driver Detective software to trying to detect the cd/dvd drive, but it’s useless. I do hear the drive when I put in a CD or DVD it is connected to the internal power source, but not been seen or recognized. If any one can help I would be very grateful. [text removed for privacy]

Hi,
You could try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below.
Windows 7
Vista
If the above fix hasn't worked, try the following. From the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Click to open the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers. Right click on the first channel and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When uninstalled repeat the process for each channel. Also if an ATA controller is listed, right click and uninstall this. Again, do not delete drivers if asked.
Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. If your optical drive appears here, right click and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked.
Restart your PC and let Windows re-install these devices. Give it a minute or two, then see if the drive is working.
Let me know how it goes.
Best wishes,
DP-K
