  • Re: Unable to create recovery media flash drives

    I recently purchased a new Toshiba netboo NB305-N440BL and upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium. Using the "Create Recovery Media" wizard, as suggested, I attempted to create the recovery media on two flash drives. The flash drives were brand new and had never been formatted.
    When inserted the "wizard" program stated that the Flash drives needed to be formatted, but when I asked that they be formatted, the program said that there was an error and they could not be formatted. I then formatted the drives using Windows Explorer Disk Management, reinserted the drives and received the same "...needs to be formatted, but wouldn't format ..."message. I also received "error code 040E2D-00-00000000".
    I Googled this error message and found two others who had the same problem with their Toshiba net books when they attempted to create the back up material. There were no responses to their requests for help.Is there another approach to making the back ups?
    Thank you

    I finally gave up and returned the computer to tech service at Fry's where I bought it.They found that the OS did not recognize the flash drives at any of the USB ports, so they exchanged the computer for a new one ( I was still within the 15 days after purchase for a return) and the new computer works perfectly, Thanks for all the suggestions.

  • Folio 13-2000 unable to create recovery media due to known SSD corruption bug

    My folio has been freezing and periodically showing the 'no boot drive' message. I tracked it down to the critical Softpaq sp60976. I tried to create recovery media (USB flash drive), but it fails at about 19% completion and says it cannot continue. The SSD firmware update requires a secure wipe of the drive, but I won't have anything to put back on it.
    My computer is out of warranty by a year. Is there really no recovery media, even for purchase, from HP? I'll take DVD, as I can attach an external DVD drive. 
    This question was solved.

  • W540, Windows 8: Unable to create recovery media

    Hello,
    today I received my new worklaptop, a W540 with Windows 8 installed.
    The first think I wanted to do was to create recovery media (I'm going to re-install on a SSD). However, trying to run the Windows 8 "Create recovery media" tool, as sugested by Lenovo, results in the following:
    The option "Copy the recovery partition ..." is grayed out, and I can not select it. Pressing Next results in the following:
    What am I doing wrong ?
    Thank you.

    You should be able to order recovery media from support.  They usually charge for the media but in this case they may not.  I can't speak for them - you'll have call and see how it goes...

  • Unable to create recovery media on a new T440

    Hello,
    I am new here. I have a brand new T440 which I am populating and customising.
    I created a new partition on the HDD using MiniTool Partition Wizzard. That may have created the problem - I can't create the recovery media. I get a message that the files are not there. I should have done it before partitioning - too late now.
    However, using the Partition Wizzard, I can assign a drive letter to the Recovery partition, and it becomes visible in Windows Explorer (File manager). I can copy the content on an external HD drive.
    If I ever need to do recovery - will it work from this? Has anybody tried this before?

  • Unable to create recovery media

    Starting the Option to Create the recovery media I only get an application crash in "rrmedia.exe". Is there any other way to create the recovery media? Or is it possible to simply reinstall something?

    it would be helpful if you could post which ThinkPad, Operating System and version of R&R you have installed. This will hopefully help members help you.

  • 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

    ThinkPad x201 Tablet(Model Number: 30933PG) - Wundow 7 Pro
    Can you do Flash Recovery Media and CD Recovery Media under Window 7 Pro  Enviro.

    What is the Procedure to successfully create Recovery Media.
    Thanks.

    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.

  • Cannot Create Recovery Media - USB

    Hi, I have a Toshiba P875, Windows 8. Tried creating recovery media on a brand new Transcend 16GB USB 3.0 flash drive. I get the error code 'Format failed! (Error Code: 040E87-0A-000000000) What could be the issue? Couldn't find any answer on the forum. Disabled Anti-virus but still did not help. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, Anand
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Here’s how I got my Toshiba to create recovery media on a USB drive that gave the following message:
    'Format failed!
    It appears that Recovery Media Creator recognizes some USB drives as having two partitions even though one only shows up under windows.  I tried 2 different USB drives the first was a Team Group 16G USB 3.0 thumb drive and the second was a Kingston Datatraveler 16g 3.0 USB thumb drive. Recover Media Creator work flawlessly with the Kingston drive and gave me the error with the Team Group drive.  I tried formatting the drive with windows which didn’t help.  I downloaded HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool located on the cnet website and formatted the Team Group drive (run as administrator).  After that it also worked flawlessly.  So my advice to anyone who gets the “Format failed” message with Recovery Media Creator is either try using a different thumb drive or download HP’s format tool and let it format the USB drive.

  • Attempting to create recovery media on P500-ST6822 but fails

    Just received my Satelite P500-ST6822 laptop with Windows 7 OS, and want to create recovery media before I start normal use. 
    While creating the system recovery media the process fails at the same location indicating -
     "Diferences were found between the following files. 
     Source Path:

    Targe Path: 
    D:\ZZImages\ZZImages\PREINSTS.SWM 
    (Error Code 02016F-3C-00000000)"
    Tried this twice, and both attempts fail at same location.  Next message indicates failed to create recovery CD 1, and gives three choices, retry, next , and cancel.  Have wasted two DVDs, would like to get past this so I can a complete set of recovery media.  Any ideas on how to get around this failure?
    Thanks in advance...
    Solved!

    You'll need to contact Toshiba Support about this and have them send you a working set of recovery disks as the files on your hard drive are corrupted.  There's nothing you can do to change that on your end. 
    See this post on who to contact to order the disks and be sure to explain the problem you are having so they don't charge you for them.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

  • Creating Recovery media failed - Files missing!

    Hello! This is my first post to this forum. I have recently purchased a Thinkpad T400, I am however having some issues, and was hoping that you guys could help me. 
    I have received my Thinkpad with Windows XP pre-installed, together with a few Windows Vista recovery discs. I have never used Vista before, and so I am trying to create some recovery discs for XP, just in case I want to stick to XP.
    However, when I try to create the recovery discs, I only get this message: "The files needed to create recovery media is missing."
    I have just tried updating Rescue and Recovery to the latest version, but still the same error message. I have tried to search the forums to see if someone else have had this problem, but they all seem to be slightly different from my own problem.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    After my 4th call to Toshiba tech Support, I think I finally got my "create recovery media" issue resolved.  The tech today had me uncheck the "verify" box on the "create recovery media" screen, and now the process seems to be working as it should.  --it worked!  I just got the screen message telling me the recovery media was successfully created.  Yay.

  • Create Recovery Media low disk space on C error

    Hey everyone,
    When I tried to create a recovery disc on my X301 Windows 7 to free up the partition, I got an error saying "No enough temporary disk space in C drive, Create Recovery Media will exit now." How much space do I need to free up on my C drive? I only have about 7.5 gb free on my 64gb SSD.
    Thanks for your help!

    You'll want at least 10 GB free before doing anything.  As is, you can look at your recovery partition to see exactly how much you'll need, but Windows will always block off extra for some reason.
