HP Recovery Error Code 100a

Hi
I Have the Pavilion dv5 Laptop and out of the blue it just stopped loading Windows instead it keeps stalling on the HP Recovery Screen and no matter how many times i try re-booting it just keeps halting on this screen. So I tried doing the System Recovery and as soon as i click next to begin a message box comes up saying "Error Code 100a if this keeps occuring contact HP". I've tried Googling this error code and have found different reasons for the error ranging from Hard Drive Failure to Motherboard Failure. I have run the diagnostics tool and the Hard Drive passed all tests as did the Memory. Has anybody else encountered this error or have any idea what it could be.
Thanks

Hello,
Please make sure that there are no USB drives or external devices attached. _if the problem continues and you cannot run the F11 recovery - Call HP @ 1800 HP Invent and they will send you a free set of recovery disks if you are still in warranty.
thanks!

HP Notebook 1000-1227TU Recovery - Error code: 0xc0000225

Hi there,
Model: HP 14" Notebook 1000-1227TU
OS: Windows 8
I ran into a serious issue with my newly bought HP Notebook. I used EASEUS Partition Master software to resize C: drive from 275GB to 70GB, then allocate the new partition 205GB to F: drive (D: is recovery, E: is DVD). After clicking apply, the system reboots (and downloading windows updates).
Upon reboot, the following error message is shown. I can not choose to boot from recovery etc.
===========================================
Recovery
Your PC needs to be repaired
A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed
Error code: 0xc0000225
You'll need to use the recovery tools on your installation media. If you don't have any installation media (like a disc or USB device), contact your administrator or PC manufacturer.
Press Enter to try again
Press F8 for Startup Settings
Press Esc for UEFI Firmware Settings
===========================================
This laptop is a gift to my parents and I am heading to my hometown in 2-days (in overseas). Pls help and provide assistance asap. Tks.
Rgs,

Hi,
Press the power button and immediately tap the Esc key to enter the Strtup menu. In the Startup menu choose diagnostics and test the hard disk and the test the memory.
Post your results here in your thread.
If the results are a hard disk fail then the hard disk must be replaced with a new one.
Is your notebook still in warranty?
If the results are hard disk passed then the following procedure should help you.
You can download and create a live usb version of Gparted.
Boot to the USB flashdrive you used when creating the utility. Enter the Gparted partition editor and mark the recovery partition as active. Once that is done, restart the PC and it should boot right into the Recovery manager.
In the Recovery manager you can perform a Factory Image recovery to return your notebook to the state it was delivered to you.
Best regards,

DV-7 Recovery - Error Code 105

Hello, I'm having an issue rebooting my dv7-1130us laptop (OS is Windows Vista) from the recovery discs and the hard drive is brand new since I thought that was the issue. It gets to 30%-50% and shows error code 1005 but the discs are in good condition. I have spent hours researching this and tried everything recommended in BIOS settings. Please let me know of the possible causes of this issue.
Thank you!
Jason

Which version and type(32 or 64-bit) of Vista is installed?
There are download links for the ISO image files in the following thread as well as an explanation of how to use it to reinstall the operating system.

Installing the OS this way is the least expensive option. You can still download the drivers from the web support portal for your notebook on the drivers page.

Pavilion A6430f recovery error code

Hi,
I have a Pavilion a6430f desk top and I just replaced both hard drives on it. I inserted my recovery disk and began the recovery process when I received an error code of 0x400 100 130000 1002 as the hard drives were just beginning the reformatting of the Windows partition of the hard drive. I checked to make sure the hard drives were installed properly and it appears they are installed correctly. I have not been able to find any information online on how to solve this issue. Any suggestions for solving this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I think you have a bad hard drive, it needs to be replaced.
Did you make the HP recovery discs when you got the PC?
If not you will need to order a set, then replace the hard drive and use the recovery set to install the Operating System.
You can order recovery media here if you do not have them
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00810334&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en
If you have important data on the old hard drive I can show you how to save it once the new hard drive is installed and recovery has been performed, do not throw away the old hard drive

HP Notebook breakdown/ Ask for recovery / Error code 0xc0000034 HELP

Hello,
Last week my PC broke down after I turned it off manually. Since then, when I turn it on I fell directly on the 'Recovery' blue page. Saying
'Your PC need to be repaired. The Boot configuration data file is missing some required information...'
Then if I press Esc for UEFI Firmware settings, I can select 'Actualize my PC', but when I select that it tells that the windows lector is locked, so basically I cannot do anything.
Also I don' have any installation CDs because these 'new' PCs come with nothing.
In advance thanks, I think its manageable but I just dont know anything about PC and I really dont know what to do. Also I would like not to loose my data if possible.
S

Hi @nanotsong
Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are getting a Boot Configuration Data file is missing error message. Did you happen to create a set of recovery CDs when you first got your notebook? You will need either those or an installation disk to repair the file. Try seeing if you can borrow an installation CD if you didn't create the recovery CDs.

HP-PAVILION DM1-1090EV - Recovery - Error code:0XC0000034

need help please...
I used EASEUS Partition Master software to resize C: drive from 290GB to 50GB, then allocate the new partition 240GB to F: drive
when i try to boot from partition recovery by pressing f11 the following error message is shown

Hi,
Changing the partition sizes or deleting a partition fomr the original partition scheme causes the loss of the ability to access the recovery manager from the normal method. That ability can be resored by preformaing a factory image recovery. Be aware that a recovery is a destructive process and that makes it very different from Windows system restore. It is also an irreversible process.
You will have better results in your attempt to execute a recovery if you use a recovery disk set or usb recovery media.

Internet recovery error code "4403f"

i searched for solution for this issue and no one answer it. and i wish someone well..
so my problem is that i don't have an recovery HD so when i use the internet recovery it gives me ("apple.support" with code 4403F) and stuk ..
plz don't just read my probelm .. find me an answer plz .. thank you very much

tee144.. first that just isn't a nice answer..   Bashing someone for not knowing something is just wrong. and I was always told if your not part of the solution your part of the problem.
Second..   Alex's post was just about worthless as yours..   Because Googling some words and posting other responses.. ah dah don't mean anything especially when its incorrect
Lastly.. all the other posts on solutions for this PROBLEM - are just wrong and plain shots in the dark. because it is NOT a firewall or port blocking problem.. period.
I have perfect internet - no firewall.. Spent time on this issue (as I am working on it for a client) by trying several different internet provides at different locations that I own.. result was always the same
So I went further by checking the traffic with a packet capture.. Apple just is NOT answering back..    the only resolve can come from Apple because my traffic goes out to them and gets no replies..

Error Code 0xc000185

Two weeks ago I purchased a brand new HP notebook HP 15-p091-sa as a Christmas gift for my son. I'm dismayed to find that it is already displaying the following message on a blue screen: "Recovery - Your PC needs to be repaired. A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed. Error code: 0xc000185. You'll need to use the recovery tools on your installation media. If you don't have any installation media (like a disc or USB device) contact your system administrator or PC manufacturer". Having searched the internet, there is nothing that I can find about how to fix this error code and the HP website isn't proving to be of much help either as it doesn't give any indication as to what the problem is. To make matters worse, I didn't get any installation media with the notebook so don't have a clue as to how to fix the problem. Any ideas on how to fix much appreciated.

Sandie
Usually first thing to try out is to do a quick and extensive hard drive tests:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=in&lc=en&docname=c03467259
Then if no failure occur on completion, you could use Recovery partition in your laptop hard drive or order a Recovery media directly from HP for repairing the Windows.

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=in&lc=en&docname=bph07143
Please go through this thread for steps on repairing:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-Software-Recovery/Error-code-0xc0000185/td-p/...
But since the laptop is new and only 2weeks old, I suggest you contact the dealer directly informing them of the problem & get replacement unit if you can.

How do I get rid of error code 2001/2006? My phone is in recovery mode. I have tried several different cords, all USB ports, my macbook, and a friends PC. This is the second time my phone has done this, the first time it was an easy fix.

I have an iPhone 4. It is in great condition, always protected. A couple months ago, it randomly went black and wouldn't turn on. I put it in recovery mode, plugged it in to my MacBook Pro and would get error code 2001 then I'd get error code 2006. I read some different forums and many people said to try using a different USB port and different cords. The last cord I tried, worked and my phone was back. Last night, my phone did the same exact thing. So I used the same method I used last time, however nothing has worked. I tried plugging it in to a PC and that didn't work either. This seems like a hopeless problem that's going to continue to happen. Any advice?

Soooooooo.... You obviously need to restore the device
It seems that you have tried several options to restore it. What I would do is leave it plugged it and hold down the Home button AND the Power button together till you see the white apple appears. Then let go of the Power button but continue to hold the home button. You should get the message in iTunes again saying that the iPhone needs to be restored. Hit OK then RESTORE.
Hope this helps!!

Lenovo G560 OneKey Recovery 7.0 error code 0xEB1b068A

Hi
I recently purchased a Lenovo G560. First I turned it on I've tried to create DVD recovery (Default factory discs) but this error occured during the process: Failed: error code 0xEB1b068A. the softwar I used was neKey Recovery 7.0.
I had tried it twice but it wasted me two DVDs already. I looked up on the web and I've notices that it's a common problem of the lenovo think-pad computers.
If any one has the same problem that he resolved or if there is anyone who knws something about the issue please post your answers.
Thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Admin note - this discussion had been combined with other discussion on OKR, but since this error code is specific and we have several different discussions already with different potential causes, it may be worth keep this one separate so that we can hopefully arrive at a specific solution on this case.
Pooryamd,
Thanks for your suggested solution based on that KB article.
We've seen this error code come up a couple times year, and one scenario had to do with changes to the partition sizes.
So, aklee13, did you change any of the partitions?
Another reason for the errror code might be that you are not running as the administrator on the system - if you have multiple user IDs on your system - if you are sharing the PC with someone else and have a log on for them. Try right click and run as administrator.
Searching a bit, I find same error code reported for ASUS system, so this doesn't seem to be a Lenovo unique issue, maybe something underlying in Windows. Not assigning blame, just saying that there may be somethign going on that isn't specific to One Key Recovery.
Can you tell us a bit more about your system and situation. Have you made any changes to the system since you got it? What kind of DVDs are you using? Brand and type.
The more you can share with the community, the more we can help.

TS3694 Just took my 1st gen iPod out of it's original box, never used before. Plugged it into my new Mac book Pro and it recognizes that the iPod is in recovery mode but when I click to restore, error 1611 comes up - but that error code doesn't say what

I had an 8GB 1st gen iPod in it's original box in storage and just took it out to hook it up. Charged it overnight, plugged it into new Mac Book Pro and it was recognized as being an iPod in recovery but other identifying information was all indicated as "n/a" (so, unknown OS, etc). Error code 1604 came up so I downloaded iTunes on the Mac Book and it is currently showing version 10. But now when I try to restore the iPod, error code 1611 comes up and the troubleshooting doesn't tell me what else to try. The USB connector that came with the iPod was also never used before - brand new also from the box so that should be fine. I also tried a different USB port on the Mac Book. Any ideas?

Error 1611
This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, this error may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

HT1414 my iphone 4 running on IOS 5 will not come out of recovery mode and gives the error code -1. Can any one help me please because i've been without a phone for 2 weeks and still not getting anywhere.

Hi there could someone out there please help i've got a Iphone 4 running on IOS 5 and it will not come out of recovery mode> It comes up with the error code -1 which i've looked everywhere on the web but no one seams to have the same issue.
This is a reconditioned replacement phone from the apple genius guys which i paid £130 for and only got 3 months warranty with and as soon as the warranty run out it crashed on me and never been able to get it back out of recovery mode. I've been back to the apple genius guys and they have told me there's nothing they can do other than charge me £130 to take the phone off me and give me another reconditioned phone with a 3 month warranty. Which as you can properly tell i dont want to.
PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME thanks for your time

This is a bad hardware error, Baseband Error. Some have reported getting through this error by Restoring iPhone with the SIM Card removed. Try that. Try restoring with different computer. Search Web some more for other thoughts.

Ipod touch stuck in recovery mode and will not restore. error code 3194

ipod touch stuck in recovery mode, will not restore and comes up with error code 3194, itunes is up to date, please help

Hi @rchangel - Thanks for the ideas...
Yes - it won't let you install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine.
I've had a cursory look at the SP1 release notes, and couldn't spot anything vital - what critical stuff do you know of in SP1?
I don't want to have to go through all the pain of setting up VM's, reinstalling iTunes, getting all my album art back in etc. (though I could, as I do have Win7 pro). I've also heard that running iTunes in Windows 7 compatibility mode might help. Can anyone confirm whether that actually works?
I think it's in Apple's gift to fix this issue, given that they say that they support Windows 7. So far I've had no feedback from a mail I sent to Apple, and the number of users reporting this problem keeps going up and up.
I want Apple to recognise that there is a problem, and then I want them to fix it.

My ipod Touch is in recovery mode, has error code 6

My iPod Touch (from 2009) has ceased to function.Mine
video files and music vanished when I made a
iPod update software, it stopped working
completely.Can not do factory reset because itunes
says that iPod is in recovery mode.
I must, accordingly to itunes first restore the iPod before
I can use it with itunes.
I received error code No 6.The only thing iPod screen displays is
a picture of the itunes symbol and a cable connector
connecting via usb.
How do I restore my iPod Touch?
I have Windows Vista and the latest version of iTunes.

From the article cited at the end of my post:
Error 6: All of the steps in this article apply to resolve this issue. Following iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software frequently resolves this error. There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your Registry. If your default packet size is set incorrectly it can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance.
