OEM HDD or Retail HDD wont accept recovery cds

Hows it going everyone. I recently encountered an issue with my laptop.
Product: Pavilion dv5
S/N: {Private Information Removed}
Model # dv5t-1000
HP Pavilion Entertainment PC
Originally had Windows Vista Home Premium SP1. I had recently upgraded to Win7 Ultimate, my integrated camera stopped working. So i went to the drivers page on the hp site to look for compatible drivers and apparently there wasnt
any for Win7 Ultimate. I tried to restore the OS with the original HP cds i had ordered from the web site in order to make the camera work again but no luck. The recovery drive doesnt have anything inside , it was accidently formated when the upgrade took place (bad mistake, i know). Now when i insert the recovery cd during boot up, it just freezes when i hit any F key. When i hit F11 it loads the cd and boots for  a little while then I receive this error.
"The instruction at 0x77a124a9 referenced memory at 0x00000000"
then it just restarts and im back to square one.  i tried a new hard drive i bought from a computer store and this time it doesnt freeze on the boot up screen but i still receive the same error written above.  i cant get into safe mode at all, i hit the F key and it doesnt do anything. Running out of ideas here. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance.

There is a full list of Windows 7 drivers on your support page.Ultimate is covered under Windows 7 drivers.

  • New MB and HD system wont accept recovery CD's

    Here is the challenge, I replaced the MB and the HD and the recovery disks dont work to get the OS back. Is the solution that I need to buy a windows 8 CD and will that work or is there another solution? 

    Perfect, I should have came here first for a solution instead of wasting two weeks getting bad info from HP support! A BIG thank you....!!! What I found is HP and other manufacturers are required to "tattoo" their MB's to prvent piracy of OS's. Its a Microsoft push to prevent use of their OS on multple PC's. That is why the manufacturer will only ship recovery CD's, they match the tattoo on the MB. Very bad for honest consumers as I just paid twice for an OS that I am using on one PC.....<sigh>...oh well...Again thank you for the help, it is greatly appreciated!

  • Recovery CDS dont work on new HDD

    i bought a new hard drive because my original from my laptop went to shits.
    the new hdd is in the laptop and i inserted the recovery cd from hp (they are original) and it says
    "windows loading files" and then i get an error  that says
    "The instruction at 0x77a124a9 referenced memory at 0x00000000"
    and it restarts and im back to square one.  Does my HDD need to be OEM in order for the recovery cds to work ? or am i missing a step that im not doing properly.

    also the main reason i want to reinstall windows vista as how it originally came with was because i cant get my webcam to work. after a clean install of win7 ultimate, i cant seem to find a driver from the hp web site that actually works right. I go under device manager and i cant even see where the webcam driver should be at. i  want to get the webcam driver to work with the OS i have installed on it right now, which is Win7 Ultimate 32-bit.  i tried to install cyberlink webcam and hp mediasmart webcam and both dont work for nothing.

    Hello,
    I'm not sure which HDD you used, but I suspect that may be the issue.  If you look at your Maintenance and Service Guide, it lists compatible part numbers and descriptions for your notebook.  The HDD section is on page 55.
    You can order these parts from HP Partsurfer
    Please let me know if this helps.
    Good luck!

  • New macbook pro wont accept password

    I moved everything over from my i5 MBP to a new i7 via utilities migration assistant. However the new macbook pro wont accept my password, nor will it recognise the other user account passwords. Works fine on the i5.
    In Disc Utilities, change password asks me to select an image, but does not light up "change" when I select user.
    Any ideas?

    Is you new MBP the 2010 model or is it a newer model running Mountain Lion?
    If it's a newer model running ML, you can simply boot into your Recovery partition (hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting) and when you get to the Recovery window, select Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type
    resetpassword
    and hit Return. A small app will open that will allow you to change the password for the user that you select. Then just reboot and use the new password.
    If, indeed, you're running 10.6.4, you'll need the installation disc to use the Reset password utility.
    Good luck,

  • My ipad wont accept any passwords, i am unable to connect to my wifi even though my password is correct and other laptops etc have no problem connecting.

    my ipad wont accept any passwords, i am unable to connect to my wifi even though my password is correct and other laptops etc have no problem connecting.
    The ipad can find my wifi connection but just wont accept the password.  connected with no problem in the Apple store.
    any suggestions,
    thanks.

    Does the iPad connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Cant install Toshiba HDD Accelerator and HDD Protection

    Hi. I bought a new Satellite L845 SP4105LA one month ago with Windows 8 Single Language pre installed. But since I already got a genuine copy and key for Windows 8 Pro myself, I decided to install that edition. It all went well, I installed all the drivers, but I just cant install the Toshiba HDD Accelerator and HDD Protection. When trying to install HDD Accelerator an error windows appears that reads "Environment not supported (2008)", i tried with several versions of that program but always happens the same. With the HDD Protection, it just unpacks the files and then nothing happens. Is there a way for me to install this utilities? Thank you.

    Satellite L845-SP4105LA (PSKF8P-01PAR1)
    Windows 8 already has Windows 8 Pro built in. You just need to unlock it.
    My advice is to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media, and then upgrade normally to Pro. All the Toshiba utilities will have been properly installed.

  • Old HDD died, new HDD doesn't have Thinkvantage. Help...

    The HDD that came with my T61P died.
    I purchased and installed a new HDD, but now the computer is missing a lot of drivers and software that I would like to have back on the computer (namely, ThinkVantage, fingerprint login, Touchpad Navigation).
    I visited the T61P driver support page and downloaded all drivers for Vista-32 and installed them, but that did not solve all of my issues.
    Things that still do now work:
    1.) I don't know how to get ThinkVantage back on the computer (Hidden recovery partition).
    2.) Fingerprint scanner still does not work.
    3.) "Fn" keyboard Function buttons do not work
    NOTE: This is after I have installed all applicable drivers.
    I can't seem to figure out what to do next to resolve these issues.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi erdavis,
    Welcome to the Lenovo forum.
    I think the easiest way for you to restore the recovery partition(s) is to re-install from a set of product recovery CDs. If you didn't create these before (suppose you didn't since you would probably have used them already) you should be able to order a set from Lenovo.
    If you're not dead set on having the hdd recovery partitions, you could purchase a copy of Acronis True Image and use that instead of Rescue and Recovery for whole-drive backups to an external USB drive. I've found such backups and restores to be far faster (about 20 minutes, depends on the size of your disk of course) than using R&R. But the ThinkVantage button won't work on boot.
    You're probably missing some drivers that are causing your other problems. The easy way to get them is to install and run ThinkVantage System Update; it will download and install all necessary drivers for your ThinkPad.
    Good luck!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • Im trying to update my billing info but apple wont accept my debit card

    I spent 5 dollars on a app on my phone. It didnt ask me for anything about my debit card then. Now one of my apps needs to be updated. It asked me to sign in and update my billing info. I go i change my security code and the experation. I also made sure everything else was correct and it was. When i pressed done it said "your payment method was declined". I checked my bank to see if i have money and i do lol but it wont accept my new debit card and im about to do some stupid **** because im ******

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards. But if you insist, you can contact the iTunes Store and ask if they can help:

  • HT4061 I downloaded  IOS7 on My Iphone5 and put in a 4 digit lock code for find my phone but My phone wont Accept it. It wont let me restore/backup.

    I put in My IMEI code and ICLOUD tells me THAT THE product has been replaced. I am doing This to TRY TO ACTIVATE MY IPHONE5 AS it wont Accept My 4 digit code after downloading IOS7
    So My phone in disabaled, wont let me backup,restore kos FIND MY PHONE IS TURNED ON! How Canon i turn it on if phone is disabaled and computer wont recognise phone kos its locked and if i reboot it it demands i enter code (how Can i, phone,computer wont Accept) TALK ABOUT BANGING MY HEAD AGAINST A WALL, ALL I WANT IS TO USE MY PHONE . APPLE INTRODUCE NEWS SUPER SYSTEM, BETTER THIS, BETTER THAT, HA. IVE SPENT ALL YESTERDAY AND STILL TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS, LET ALONE MAKE A SIMPLE PHONE CALL!
    HELP ME SOMEONE PLEASE ,PLEASE

    You can't restore a backup to a phone that is running a version of iOS earlier than the version running when the backup was made.  Normaly this situation occurs when replacing a phone, and the eplacement OS is not up to date.  The fix is to update the replacement phone, then restore from the backup.
    You could try an older backup made with iOS6.
    Anyway, why do you need all your info on it while the screen is being fixed?

  • Can I install the online version rather than using my dvd? it successfully installed (up to a point) that way, it just wont accept my serial number for some reason. my dvd isnt working properly.

    Can I install the online version rather than using my dvd? it successfully installed (up to a point) that way, it just wont accept my serial number for some reason. my dvd isnt working properly.

    If it gets far enough to reject your serial number, it won't help to download it. It must have installed ok.
    What is the message you get (DON'T tell us the serial number!!)?
    Does it mention a "qualifying product" by any chance?

  • When turming on my ipad it comes up with passcode, which when i put it in it wont accept it. i have tryed switching of and back on and it makes no differense. the only thing i done was i put voiceover on and then tryed to switch it off and this happened.

    when turning my ipad on it comes up with passcode, when i try to enter it it wont accept. so i cannot get any further. the only thing i did was i was just messing and i turned on voiceover, then i tryed to turn it of and it wouldnt let me. i have tryed turning the ipad of and then turning it back on and that didnt work either. please help ....

    It's hard to see exactly how just turning voiceover on would have created a passcode, but regardless of that ... if you can't get it sorted so that you can enter whatever the code is, you're going to have to resort to Restoring the iPad from the computer it was last sync'ed to.

  • CS6 Products requiring serial key suddenly after being used fine since luanch? Wont accept my key (pasted from my adobe account). Reverted to trial. Please help!

    I've had the CS6 Master collection since it was released and havent had any problems with it until today. It is asking me for my serial key (for the first time since its been installed) and says the one I am providing is invalid. What is happening here? I'm giving it the key that is saved in my adobeID and is registered etc. I almost wasnt able to complete some work except that it reverted to a 30 day trial, which isnt much better because I will just need to confront this problem again in 30 days. Does anyone know why it wont accept my key? I have it on a second computer and it is doing the same thing. Both worked fine yesterday. I really wanted to talk to someone, but adobe makes that near impossible.
