  • Which Recovery Media DVDs are unique for each delivered pc?

    This is related to the other thread: what is "boot media" and "data media"
    Having just finished making recovery media for the E520 I've just purchased for my daughter, I'm soon going to need to repeat the process for the other identical E520 I've just purchased for my other daughter.
    I'm lead to believe that the Windows 7 media is unique for each pc, but during the creation of the recovery media, the process created 4 x DVD.
    1. Bootable CD/DVD.
    * Volume label: CD_ROM
    * 305 MB
    2. Recovery DVD 0.
    * Volume label: RCD_AppCD0
    * 3.62 GB
    3. Recovery DVD 1.
    * Volume label: RCD_AppCD1
    * 4.04 GB
    4. Recovery DVD 2.
    * Volume label: RCD_AppCD2
    * 1.22 GB
    Do I need to make another complete set of 4 x CD/DVD or is only one of these unique for that pc hardware?
    This is for a Thinkpad E520 (1143CTO) with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    Solved!

    If the systems really are identical you don't really need to make another set, the set you made will work.  That said, it can't be a bad thing to have two sets in case one set get's damaged, lost or whatever.
    In such situations I prefer wearing belt and braces.

  • Making a recovery media stopped (froze)

    I was doing my recovery media on DVD-R disks... But it stopped at 18% on verify disk ... It stayed there for 45 minutes .. What can I do to make sure it finishes ..

    If the Recovery creation process refuses to complete ,phone HP and tell them about the issue and request a set.Usually they will be free if you try and fail with the software.If you live in US or Ca call 1-800-474-6836

  • Windows 8.1 downgrade to windows 7 pro recovery media with Satellite S50-BBT2N22

    I have a few questions about my recovery media.
    1. My new Satellite S50-BBT2N22 was ordered with Windows 8.1 downgrade-able to Win 7 pro. Should I build my recovery media before or after I downgrade to win 7 pro?
    2. My new Satellite S50-BBT2N22 does not have a DVD drive. How will I save my recovery media?
    Regards
    Dennis

    1. Before.  Your Recovery partition will remain Windows 8.1. After downgrading to Windows 7 and beginning operations, you should make frequent HDD copies to an external drive anyway.
    2. Use a Flash Drive in a USB port.  See your User's Guide starting on page 46 for complete instructions   
    for making Recovery Media and Recovering the HDD.

  • ThinkPad Twist s230u and ThinkPad x201 Tablet Creating Recovery Media

    Hi Lenovo Customer Support,
    ThinkPad s230u( model number: 3347CTO) - Window 8 Pro.
    Before I start using my Laptop, I want to create a Recovery Media as is shown when installed with all partitions. Meaning if I format all contents of Laptop I want a recovery Media brings back computer as I go it in the first place include all partitions. By default there are five hidden partition and one ntfs.
    What is the procedure how to Create a Recovery Media? I heard only Flash Recovery exist for Window 8.
    Also I have Window 8 Pro but when I tried this link procedure http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/Create-Win-8-recovery-media-in-ThinkPad-Thi... I saw only Window 8 option and even then it reboot and did not work.
    Also I did Flash Recovery and Took Faster with USB 3.0 Flash around 10 min around 16GB Space
    Is it possible to do CD Recovery too ?
    ThinkPad x201 Tablet(Model Number: 30933PG) - Wundow 7 Pro
    Can you do Flash Recovery Media and CD Recovery Media under Window 7 Pro  Enviro.
    If you upgrade Hard drive to 1T and RAM to 16 G RAM  , Can you Still do the Recovery Media?
    What is the Procedure to successfully create Recovery Media.
    Thanks.
    saad

    Reasons am asking this questions:
    Sometime you test your computer doing a lot of things learning new technologies etc and suddenly you decide ok I want to take it back to factory state. Until now, most Thinkpad laptop does not come with recovery media. So how can I assure that my Recovery Media includes everything I used to have when I first receive unit.
    I want to learn how to do that by myself by learning from the experts.
    Until now what I know as follow:
    ThinkPad x201:
    I tried recovery media  3 DVD only with original hard drive works. I did not try Flash and not sure there is option yet.
    If I upgrade unit with 1T hard drive and 16G Ram, How can I do Recovery Media?
    ThinkPad Twist s230u:
    I tried Flash and followed procedure on link in previous post. I took me less than 15 min to recovery whole. The question is does this process recover all the parts that is included when I receive unit.
    I was unable to do recovery since I am not sure when in the Flash and during process showed to choose operating system was only Window 8 option not Window 8 Pro which came with unit.
    I was able to do reset within system took longer and worked.
    Is the recovery part build-in in the hardware or software partition? Is it included in the recovery Flash with all partitions?
    Thank You. Awaiting for anyone to reply.

  • Lenovo Recovery Media not showing recovery media

    My T430 has an issue with creating Product Recovery discs. It doesn't give me any options for recovery media. The drop down meny is totally empty. Clicking "update" does nothing. I have updated the software, and rebooted several times, no success. I have a portable USB drive, which I'm going to use as a recovery media.
    The issue is the same with Lenovo Solution Center and ThinkVantage Tools.
    Any ideas what might cause this problem?
    Thank you and regards,
    -Gary
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    definitely create the recovery media on dvds. then you should be able to recreate the factory-delivered os onto whatever drive, hdd or ssd, compatible/installable with your laptop.
    how you make a backup, and what's included in it, can be accomplished by any number of applications, including Windows' own internal utility. what you choose is largely a matter of personal preference.
    regards.
    edit: spelling.

  • X220 "Create Recovery Media" on USB flash drive

    Is it required to first create an Active Partition on the USB flash drive, within Windows 7, before creating "Factory Recovery Disks" on a USB flash drive - FOR THE X220?
    I've carefully looked at the X220 User Guide and it makes no mention of it.  Yet, I came across a web page on this site explaining how to create an active partition prior to making recovery media.  However, it does NOT reference the X220 as an affected computer and I wonder if the active partition happens automatically on the X220.

    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/Making-a-usb-stick-with-the-Lenovo-recovery-pa...
    Here's the best thread I can find on the subject.  You're still going to have to make the partition active.  The x220 doesn't have anything extra in it to automatically make it active.  That thread has some good links in it with pretty good instructions.  I know the x220 isn't listed as an affected system but I think that the support site just hasn't been updated yet.

  • HP laptop g7-1150us recovery (from recovery media) failed.

    Model: HP laptop g7-1150us
    recovery media: 3 DVDs that I created when I got this laptop.
    Hard disk: I have run diagnosis for hard disk. Passed.
    Problem:
    I have tried recovery from recovery media. Following the instruction, I insert 3 DVDs. It copied the required files from DVD to the hard disk and shows "recovery preparation is complete".  Also, it shows it will start recovery after restarting the computer. Once the computer is restarted, it shows boot failed. It is exactly the same story when I tried recovery manager from internal recovery 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 or USB flash drive. The version  must match version that came installed on your PC as  listed on the Microsoft COA sticker attached to bottom of laptop. Such as Windows Home Premium.
    Link to the Windows 7 ISO file downloads:
    http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325/
    You can use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to convert the ISO file you download. Link and instructions below. You need a  DVD+R or DVD -R . Or a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool#installation
    Use the 25 character key on the COA to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Next go to your support and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  • Re-Installing Windows 7 Using Recovery Media (DVD's)

    Notebook: HP-430 Notebook
    OS: Windows 7 (64-bit)
    HDD: 298 GB
    When i newly bought my HP-430 notebook, I re-partitioned HDD using some other third party software.I created one additional partition (M:\). Here is the info, of how i had repartitioned....
    C:\  - 100GB (changed from 284 GB to 100 GB).
    D:\  - Did not make any changes.
    M:\  - 184 GB (Created a drive by my self).
    Then after some days for testing purpose i thought of using recovery manager. So i run the setup and chose the First option (System Restore) which said that it will only reformat the system drive (C:\), and will not perform any other HDD changes. But to my surprise it deleted/reformated the full HDD, and i lost all my documents, music, photos, and all my important files, which i had stored/backed up on M:\ (which i had created)....
    Can some one tell me why the hack this happened.....????
    Then now, next point. After recovery manager had restored the OS, i again repartitioned it, But this time with Windows Disk Management Tool. But Windows Disk Management didnt allow me to shrink(resize) the C:\(Systemdrive) less than 150 GB. So i resized C:\ to 150 GB from 284 GB, and created one more drive (M:\) of size 147 GB. And i deleted the Recovery Drive (D:\), but i have created the Recovery DVD's before deleting Recoevery Drive from my HDD.
    Again now its time for me to reinstall Windows 7 using Recovery media, as i have messed up with some system files while installing a theme for Windows 7, and now my OS is completely unstable. So now i want to reinstall windows 7, but I cant understand which option to chose in recovery manager (when run from Recovery DVD's)
    Options shown in recovery manager
    1. Recover using Microsoft Recovery
    2. System Recovery (The option which i had chosen for the first time and got all my stuff deleted)....it says it only reinstalls the OS and wont perform any other HDD changes.
    3. Minimised Image Recovery
    4.Factory Reset.
    So now my question to you guys is that.......which option do i chose in recovery manager so that all my backed up content and my stuff on M:\ (which i created) wont be deleted..and the OS will be reinstalled.....
    PLIZZZZZ HELPPPPPPPPPPPP.........................
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    I don't believe that any of the recovery options from the Disc will retain your custom partition - As far as I know, the only time you will get a prompt to keep a custom partition is when using the 'Minimized Image Recovery' option from the Recovery Partition D which you have removed.
    You could try the following work-around.
    Download the correct Windows 7 Disc Image from the link below - this must be exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie if your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the version you would need to download.
    Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
    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.
    Use the disc you create to perform the installation - when you get to the option to choose the type of installation, choose Custom and select the C partition. 
    When asked, enter the Windows activation key found on the underside of your notebook, then 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.

  • Using Recovery Media on External DVD Drive

    Now that I know my internal dvd drive is fried, can I use my recovery media utilizing my external dvd drive?

    I put the recovery media in the external dvd drive and it still wants to run it from the internal.
    I have disabled my internal "mat**bleep**a dvd ram uj-850s".  No luck.

    Hi Tamkhai,
    The USB dvd drive is plugged into my laptop.  I am able to get into the boot up area with F12, but it will only allow me to change the order.  I put the USB to the top of the list.  I restart the computer and it brings up the Toshiba Recovery window.  I select OK.  It says "Insert Disc 1."  I insert disc 1 into the external and then it tries to utilize the internal dvd drive.  Even if I disable it or uninstall the dvd drive it still wants to go directly to it.

  • Recovery Media for Tecra R840 - What size USB or DVD?

    What size USB (or DVD media) is needed to create the basic recovery media?  I saw the post for the user who also had MS Office 2010, but what size USB (or DVDs) would be needed to create the basic recovery media (ie, without the Office suite) - a search of the manual failed to provide the answer?
    Thanks - FB

    I believe the Recovery Media Creator should specify if you continue to go through it.

  • Can't create recovery media -- R&R doesn't see USB dvd-r drive

    I have a cheap asus usb dvd-r drive.  When I plug it in, everything's recognized by windows 7, however, when I get to the screen in create recovery media where I have to selected my device to record on, the drop down menu is blank and I can't select my USB dvd-r drive.  I have seen some other threads telling me to uninstall the driver and restart, but that hasn't worked.  Any ideas?
    x201 tablet, windows 7 32-bit

    plsfoldthx, welcome to the forum,
    please do and check the following; attach the drive when the system is turned off, start the system and then enter bios (F1). Navigate to and open the startup menu and check that the drive is recognised by bios, hit F10 and then enter to save and exit. The system will restart.
    Once windows has booted have another look in R&R to see if the drive is recognised.
    I've always suspected that R&R calls up it's drive information from bios because hot plugging a drive has never worked for me with R&R.
