Recovery disks for my HP Pavilion DV 9500 Windows Vista home premium

Does anyone know where I can find recovery disks for my HP Pavilion DV 9500 Windows Vista home premium?? According to HP, disk pn is 446537-004.

Excuse me for not understanding the solution so well....
So I need to purchase an OS for my computer - like windows 7 ??
And I need to download drivers from hp.com - there is a long list of drivers and they are dependent on the operating system - which ones do i need (all??) and supposedly I need to get a new operating system first??
Could I try to just reload drivers before purchasing a new OS - is that possible ?? maybe it is a driver problem and not an OS problem ?? If this is possible, how do I determine which drivers to download and what order to try to install them??
Sorry that I am not so knowledgeable
Thanks,

  • HP Advisor stops working on my Pavilion p6330f with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system

    My computer is a  Pavilion p6330f  with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system.  It bothers me when I get error messages and can't seem to correct the problem.  After loging onto my computer  a message comes on that the HP Advisor stopped working. When I attempt to load the HP Advisor it gives me the same message and does not come up. 

    HP Advisor-one of the first things I uninstall, flaky software.
    Have you tried the update for Advisor from your support & drivers page?

  • I can't synchronize my iPod's with my iTunes software (Windows Vista Home Premium) due to problems with the access authorization / rights for this operation

    Hi there,
    I'd like to ask you something:
    I'm trying to synchronize all my iPod's (I have as many as 4 iPods: 2 iPod touch a 8 GB each and 2 iPod classic a 160 GB each) with my iTunes software (Version 11.3.1 which is installed on a Windows PC (Windows Vista Home Premium)). Unfortunately, the iTunes software refuses to run the command "synchronize with the iPod connected" regarding each and every iPod I have. iTunes just declares:
    Synchronizing is impossible because I wouldn't hold the access authorization / rights for this operation.
    I uploaded the songs at issue to my iTunes folder from CD's (all songs are in AAC format now).
    What is this access authorization, why was something like that invented and what can I do to get it?
    How do I have to proceed in detail?
    What would it cost?
    I am brand new here and have never ever made a post in any support community anywhere in the world in my life. Well, and I am not excessively knowledgeable about the particular computer or mac language but I know the very basics or can find out about them.
    Anyways - can you help me please?
    If you can't help me, who can do so?
    It would be nice if you could answer me as soon as possible!
    Thank you guys

    Yes, others have experienced the problem, a simple search of the forums would have revealed that and the simple solution.
    Termporarily disable any security software on the computer.

    Hi Abdallah,
    According to your description, could you please post the summary and detail logs for further analysis? By default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
    Usually, the error occurs when the Windows Installer Service is not running or the Windows Installer registry settings are corrupted.  I recommend you reset the Windows Installer Service settings in the registry and restart the Windows Installer Service,
    then reinstall SQL Server 2008 R2. For more details, please review this similar
    article.

    Hi:
    You can probably downgrade your Vista notebook to XP, but you don't have a license (downgrade rights) to do that from Microsoft. 
    Normally, only business notebooks and desktops were given downgrade rights to XP due to the risk of companies operations grinding to a halt because of software incompatiblities with some programs and Vista.
    Personally, it would be better anyway to move on up to Windows 7.
    Since your notebook came with Vista, it can run Windows 7. For any missing drivers you may have you can normally use the Vista drivers on your notebook's support and driver page.
    Additionally, you may want to read through this dv2000 upgrade guide for Windows 7.

  • The system recovery disks I made for my HP dv7-1132 NR running Vista Home Premium 64 bit won't work.

    I just bought this laptop and I want to wipe the drive clean. It is an HP dv7-1132 NR with Vista home premium 64 bit but still on Service Pack 1. It came with no system restore disks so I made my own through the System Recovery Manager. Apparently the disks were created without any problems as there were no errors.
    When I tried to use the first disk however (by inserting the first disk into the dvd drive and re-starting the computer, Once it has re-booted I get the message:  
    "This PC is not supported by the system recovery disks. You will not be able to recover this system with these disks"
    Can anyone help me help me to either get these discs working or give me another work around that will wipe this hard drive? I am not a techie so my knowledge base is rudimentary. If you can give alot of detail in any possible fixes, that would be great!!!1
    Thanks. and Happy 4th of July Americans!!!!

    Usually this is caused by missing info in the BIOS and must be corrected by service from HP. Enter BIOS by tapping away at the F10 key immediately after power on. Is all system info there,serial,etc?

  • Boot-up & BIOS probs - H-P Pavilion P6 2130ef - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

    Starting up my PC has become an exercise in frustration.. I press the start on/off button and the screen stays black - nothing happens. It's unresponsive to ESC or F11 (to try and get into Recovery manager) or Cont/Alt/Del. It's only by pressing the on/off button at regular intervals that enables me to eventually get to the stage where I can enter my password.
    This afternoon I did a Malwarebytescan and also a Disk Clean-up.. Thought I'd fixed it but still the same problem.
    When I first got the PC I didn't make a back-up copy of the boot-up as I was waiting for a WD external hard drive - thinking what can go wrong with a new PC..? ☺
    I think my BIOS must be corrupted somehow. Is it possible to download a new BIOS?
    It's an H-P Pavilion P6-2130ef and I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

    Many times this is the result of a faulty device attached to the machine that looks like a short to the power supply.  Try to disconnect anything that you don't absolutely need and see if it start OK.  Try a different mouse and keyboard as well.

  • Is there a way to do a complete PC restore for windows vista home premium?

    I have a pavilion dv6871us with windows vista 32 bit with vista home premium.  I have lost my wireless adapter and nothing I have tried works to get it back. I've tried restoring my system back to another date and that will not work. I was going to do a complete pc restore but read that vista home premium does not have that included. Is there any way I can restore my laptop back to factory defaults?

    Hi:
    You can give the procedure in the video at the link below a try.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmiLeJ9oMM8
    If you can't get the adapter to work unnistalling it and reinstalling it, you may have to order a set of recovery disks for your PC.
