Hp the system recovery media does not support this computer, WIN7 GS72 Notebook

HProduct: GS-B66US (17" I3 notebook)
OS:             Win7
Bios Rev:   F.47
Error message: "hp the system recovery media does not support this computer.  You are not able to restore this system"
Changes made to system:  Updated bios (I think).
Getting error messages (at system boot, as windows start, and from the intel hard drive controller) warning me to backup data and hard drive my fail.
I replaced the harddrive and inserted the first of my 4 recovery DVDs (created before I updated the bios).  After booting from the first recovery disk I get the following message
"hp the system recovery media does not support this computer. You are not able to restore this system with the media"
The computer still boots with the old hard drive (with drive failure imminent messages)  I do see support assistant offering another bios update but I did not install it with the hard drive problem
PLEASE HELP
TIA

Hi,
I think there could be two possible reason. wrong media or systemboard is changed.
did you create any recovery media yourself or you ordered the recovery media from hp? also, was there any systemboard replacement done before?
media created on some other computer (same model) may not work on your computer.
you can order the media from hp.com here.

also once systemboard is replaced you need to get the configuration settings done for BIOS(only HP can do it).
hope it helps

  • System Recovery media does not support the computer. HELP!!!

    Ok problem here the recovery discs that were created do not work. And this is where I'm stuck.
    First the details. It's a DV7-6163CL Laptop with windows 7. The discs were created shortly after we got the computer. The reason we have to try and recover the computer is hard drive #1 failed and failed hard. Hard drive was replaced. Now after trying to use the recovery discs we get the error message after a few windows loading screens in Recovery Manger.
    "The system recovery media does not support this computer. You are not able to restore this computer with the media."
    Well Hp doesn't support his platform anymore due to its age.
    Is there anything I can do next to formatting the computer and getting a new OS?

    Many times this error is caused by missing info in BIOS. Can you enter BIOS-F10 at power on- and check for serial number,etc?
    Sometimes a new hdd requires prepping with Cyberlink Utility cd first. Download and Save the file. Once download is complete, put a blank cd in your drive and 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.

  • ".. recovery disks do not support this computer.." and I deleted my recovery partition

    So I dutiful created Recovery Disks, a set of 4 DVDs. I than resized my Windows 7 partition and deleted the Recovery Partition; to make room for Ubuntu. I want to recover my laptop to original install using the Recovery Disk set.
    My laptop boots from the Recovery Disk and reports:
    "The system recovery disks do not support this computer. You are not able to restore this system with these disks."
    My system is stock:
    HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook PC
    BIOS F.0C - 3/30/2010
    This will teach me not to buy original Windows OS CDs!
    Ideas?

    I don`t know if this will help you ,but if you have had your system board replaced your original recovery disks won`t work as they look for the serial number ex factory,as i had a similar problem,and ended up getting new disks from hp with my new serial number from the bios.Hope this helps.

  • Can't recover my system using the system recovery media

    Last month my computer started reporting an imminent hard disk failure. So I created a set of system recovery discs, purchased a new hard drive, and tried to start the recovery process. But in the process my DVD drive failed, and then my BIOS chip had to be replaced. Finally I'm ready to try to recover my system using an external DVD drive, but after booting to disk 1 and looking like Windows is starting, I get the error message:
    HP Recovery Manage
    The system recovery media does not support this computer. You are not able to restore this system with the media.
    0110-QF521EA#ACB-QE360UA#ABA
    0130-ACB-ABA
    What's going on here and I how to I recover my system?

    I liked Paul Tikkanen's suggestion of downloading an ISO file and booting to that (http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/System-Recovery-Restore-and-All... The system starts a Windows boot but soon asks me to install a CD/DVD driver. I can't find one and the installation will not let me proceed without one. I am getting pretty frustrated!

  • Strange IE ExternalInterface Bug: "Object does not support this property or method"

    We have an application on a relatively slow server (I mention
    the speed because it may be relevant).
    The app is flash 8 and uses ExternalInterface to call a
    javascript function in its parent page. It also used the
    ExternalInterface to receive a call from another function. These
    calls happens separately (the outbound one calls up a list view of
    items, clicking on an item calls up the details in the flash
    movie). In between the calls, the flash movie is hidden by moving
    it off screen using absolute positioning.
    On my local development box (Windows XPSP2) this works fine
    in both directions.
    On our production server (LAMP) this works fine in both
    directions in Firefox 1.5 and 2.0
    BUT while the outbound call from Flash to the page works fine
    in Internet Explorer 6 or 7, the call back from the page to the
    flash movie fails with the error messgage "Object does not support
    this method or property"
    We've tried not hiding the flash so it is always present on
    the page and still the browser > flash communication breaks in
    ie.
    We've tried using both the Adobe active content script and
    swfobject to embed the flash in the page with no difference in the
    resultset. In truth we've given up and gone to a two-page solution,
    reloading the flash from the start each time but I wondered if
    anyone had encountered a similar issue? Can't see why it would work
    perfectly in FF but not in IE.

    Not sure if this is your problem, but you do reference the
    Flash object
    differently, depending on the browser. In a video player we
    made, that uses
    JS to communicate back to Flash, I use a function like this
    to modify the
    variable depending on the browser:
    function changeVideo(xname){
    //ff
    if(window.vplayer){
    window.document["vplayer"].SetVariable("theXML", xname);
    window.document["vplayer"].GotoFrame(2);
    window.document["vplayer"].Play();
    //ie
    if(document.vplayer){
    document.vplayer.SetVariable("theXML", xname);
    document.vplayer.GotoFrame(2);
    document.vplayer.Play();
    The Flash is in a <div> named 'vplayer'

  • Error message: this computer is not supported by the system recovery media.

    Is the new hdd at least as large a capacity as the original? Can be larger capacity, but sometimes smaller will cause error.

    Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive.  "Could not complete backup to media share.  The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features."  What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

    I was having the same issue even with entering the following:
    archive download-sw /overwrite /allow-feature-upgrade tftp://172.18.108.26/c3kx-sm10g-tar.150-2.SE7.tar
    I noticed the image which was running on the switch was correct without the ".bin" at the end:

    System image file is "flash:c3560e-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE7"
    I uploaded a fresh IOS image from CCO and made sure the image name had ".bin" at the end. Seems trivial except the error is produced through a sanity check. See below (please excuse the extra unplugging in the output):

  • Is it possible to run Labview ver 6.5 with PowerPC as the target CPU and VxWorks as the target operating system? If version 6.5 does not support this configurat​ion, do any of the later versions support it?

    Is it possible to run Labview ver 6.5 with PowerPC as the target CPU and VxWorks as the target operating system?

    I have an Ada executable that's creating a buffer of data that's being fed to a Labview executable that's displaying the data in a GUI.  We're re-architecting some legacy system hardware and I'm just trying to figure out if this configuration is even possible.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I never heard of LabVIEW6.5. I only know of LV6i, LV6.1 and LV7.0...
    Why don't you just call your next/regional NI sales rep?

    I basically have an Ada executable and Labview executable that currently run on a Sun Machine with Solaris as the operating system.  I'm re-architecting the system hardware and will be getting rid of the Sun Machine and Solaris.  I'm don't have any issues with the Ada executable, but I'm not sure what configurations Labview supports.

  • My pc has win the operating system view, which does not support lightroom 5. I want to buy version 4

    My pc has win the operating system view, which does not support lightroom 5. I want to buy version 4?

    Thank you, Jim, for your prompt reply. Amazon has it for $151.99, Ebay has a few copies that end up being about as expensive after international shipping and other fees, and I don't trust most of the other sites after reading reviews on them. Looks like I'm going to have to fork out some dollars. How unfortunate.
    Thanks again,

  • System recovery creator does not include applications option, Qosmio f60-126

    I have created recovery discs using Toshiba Media recovery creator. However I noticed there wasn't an "applications disc" check box, only the "system recovery media" was available.
    I fear that I may have only have half a set of what I need to return my pc to a out of box state. Does anyone know if perhaps the "system recovery media" included the apps or not?
    If not how do I burn a disc for the apps?
    Thanks in advance.
    Oh and please leave simple and clear directions, I'm a bit of a computer noob. xD

    The applications disc is actually redundant, as it creates the disc from the "Toshiba Application Installer" (TAI) directories on the hard drive. If the TAI program was uninstalled from the computer, you wont have the option to create this disc. Luckily, the Toshiba Application Installer is created with a full system recovery.
    On a side note, if you have a virus on the system that can infect zip files or the TAI executable, you run the risk of putting the virus on the Applications disc because of the way that the Recovery Disc Creation program works. 
    Overall, Its better to just create the Recovery Discs, do a full system recovery from those discs, then once you have a stable system with a fresh recovery, create the Applications & Drivers Disc.

  • Is there an easy way to switch from Entourage (MS Office email) to Apple email?  The new MS Office does not support Entourage.

    I am looking for a way to shift from Entourage (MS Office email) to the Apple system for email?  The new MS Office does not support Entourage.

    Philip if you can't find your answer in this forum try the Snow Leopard forum, Mail is considered part of OS X so you may have luck there.
    Also you also may want ot be more specific when posting. I'm assuming because you only mention Mail all you are interested in is switching to Mail or did you have more in mind?
