Recovery Failure on L305-S5908

I am working to repair serious issues with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. I already have attempted to use the recovery discs and the system begins to load the discs and ends up with a blank screen with only a cursor. I do not have a recovery partition as this a new hard drive that has already been installed with the recovery discs in a previous issue. The system will not load in any safe mode and windows will only stay at the loading screen in normal booting. I have tried to perform hard drive diagnostics but the system does not boot or loads a blue screen error.
I wish to completely reformat the drive to install the recovery discs is there any way to format the hard drive and then install the recovery software from the cd's I have.

I do not have a recovery partition as this a new hard drive that has already been installed with the recovery discs in a previous issue.
The Toshiba recovery discs put the hard drive back to exactly where it was when the machine was new. That includes any recovery partitions.

Good Afternoon, I have a Toshiba Satellite, and it does not play audio from a few days, then that is connected to a console to play audio mp3 files that were in it.
I checked the sound settings and it works correctly.
How can I correct this problem?.

Presario recovery failure

Compaq Presario CQ60-212US, Vista OS, 64 Bit. I created a recovery DVD and then ran recovery. After formatting hard drive it attempted to recover files to the original state but failed, giving error code 1002. The same result using my recovery DVD. I ran the hard drive tests - all normal. I downloaded and tried to install the Vista repair file (ISO file) but it would not respond. I also get a message that says BOOTMGR missing. Please advise how I can successfully run a recovery. Thanks.

Did you test your memory?
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/How-to-test-RAM-and-HDD-Hard-Drive/td-p/...
Here is one specific to that error code, but only happens if you backup your files at the start of recovery, I am not sure if this error could happen if you have an external drive connected during recovery but did Not do a file backup.

Partial recovery failure

I am repairing a hp laptop DV7 for a friend, I have the recovery dvd's and drivers dvd
but all I get is a message that the recovery has a partial failure. I can never
get the system restored to factory settings.
I loaded windows 7 64bit pro easily, but I could not get the drivers
loaded because the nic card driver could not be loaded.
What is wrong with this proceedure I thought it was supposed to be
simple? change the boot order to make the dvd drive first
and install the dvds in order.. What is missing from this picture in getting
this DV7 laptop working?
Thanks.

Hi:
This is the link to the support and driver page for the notebook:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=5189529&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&task=&lang=en&cc=us
Like I said, I need the hardware ID's. For example, note the list of wireless network adapters.
You need to know the hardware ID's in order to install the right driver.
Looking at the specs for the notebook, there are some drivers you need that aren't listed on the page.
For example...Chipset which you need to install first and reboot before installing any other driver.
First download is what you need.
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/raid_windows.aspx
Second is video. Install and reboot.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-103171-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...=
I do not know what audio your model has. There could be one of two audio chips installed Conexant or IDT.
Again, that is why I need the hardware ID's so I can post the drivers you need.
Wired Network:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-102406-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...=
How you want to make a folder for these drivers and run them is up to you.
But we can get this done for your friend.

Recovery Failure of hp Pavillion dv8 after hard drive replaced.

I have an hp Pavillion dv8 Product VF836AV. Model dv8t-1100 between one and two years old and out of warranty.
The 320 GB Seagate hard drive failed.
I had a local shop install a new hard drive.
I attempted to use an HP DV8-1001XX W764 Dual OS Recovery Kit [2DVD's Super Recovery 588725-001 with Supplemental CD] to get the computer running again.
The Kit envelope says "Please read the instructions before beginning" -- What instructions? All the package said was 'Start with "Changing the Boot Order of the BIOS" '. How?
I simply turned the machine on and loaded the DVD's one by one per the prompts on the screen.
The process seemed to go OK, but at the end it said the recovery failed.
What do I do now?
Thanks for any assistance. ///

Hi,
Assuming you're trying to reinstall Windows 7, there is an easy work around if you have ( or can borrow ) a retail Windows 7 installation disc that is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie if your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the exact retail version you would need.
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the underside of your notebook when requested and 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.

Any additional drivers you may need can be found Here.

HP G62 Windows Startup error recovery Failure

Notebook:
HP G62 - 228CL
Running Windows 7 64-bit
Hello everyone, I need a bit of help.
My computer will boot windows 7. When I start it up, it tries to boot up. I then get a Windows failed to boot message on the windows error recovery screen and asks me if I would like to use Windows Startup Repair Tool to fix the Problem. But the tool never starts up. It just leads to a windows background and does nothing. I have also tried using f11 System recovery but it does nothing.

Hi,
Firstly, regarding your existing files.
One possible way to try and retrieve your files from a non-booting drive is to follow the process detailed in the link below. The Ubuntu operating system CD you create can run from the CD alone ( ie it doesn't have to install on the Hard Drive ) and I've often found it to be successful in retrieving data even from a failing Hard Drive. When you've created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can back up your existing files.
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/use-ubuntu-live-cd-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-windo...
Secondly, regarding the replacement of the Hard Drive.
The drive on the link below is an example of one that would be fine for your notebook.
500Gb Hard Drive
The procedure to replace the Hard Drive starts on Page 52 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.
Once done, simply use your Recovery DVDs to reinstall the Operating System on the new drive - the procedure is described in the HP document Here.
If you don't have your Recovery Discs, you can order a replacement set using the link below.
Order HP Recovery Discs.
If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

RECOVERY FAILURE!!!

my HP Pavillion G6 2102TX is also unable to complete the restoration from the genuine windows 7 dvds. it fails at the last step of restoration, when the system rerstarts, it fails to boot. now i've installed a trial version of windows 7, it works fine but when i tried to install the graphics card driver, windows was again unable to boot. i don't get any error msg, just options to save the log.... The problem started when i tried to fragment the HDD into more partitions. I guess there might be some problem with the graphics card, coz installing its driver on the trial version of windows 7 stops it to boot and shuts down the system abruptly. please help..

Hello saqib4hp,
It sounds like you need the actual recovery discs for your machine.
I think that will be the easiest way to fix your issues.

HP DV6 2030 SD recovery failure

Hello
I have a nearly three year old HP DV6 2030 SD and for several reasons I wanted to reinstall all software. Directly after buying (december 2009) I made the three rescue DVD's and a system recovery DVD, and just to check, I then reinstalled the whole system.
Now installation fails. After loading all files and (re)starting windows, a message is shown that states that current preparation
of driver installation is being done. It then shows the HP recovery manager asking me to insert rescue disc 1. When inserting
it is (apparently) not the right one, since it just continues asking for it.
On pressing "cancel" the next message is that the installation failed and I have to start all over again.
Now I did that 5 times, each time with the same result.
How can I continue, what can I do?
any help is appreciated
best
jan

Hi, Jan:
You should not have anything connected to the notebook as the system image is not designed to recognize any other hardware but that which is inside the notebook.
Sometimes recovery disks just quit working (or don't work in the first place). It is hard to say why.
If you cannot get your disks to work, you can resort to installing a plain version of windows 7 and add the drivers you need from your notebook's support and driver page. This method works most of the time, but you will need to be able to read the product key on the bottom of your notebook.
Here's how to do that.
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.
http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-from-digital-river/
Otherwise, you will have to order a set of recovery disks from HP if they are available by reading the info at the link below.

Hello ahmed-elias,
Since you did not create the recovery media when you set up your notebook, you will need to purchase a recovery usb media from HP or an HP partner.
You have a choice of where to get a recovery disk set. The cost is usually around $30.00 USD

CQ70-120US Notebook: Recovery Failure or Failure to Fully Recover?

Compaq Presario CQ70-120US Notebook PC
Model: FS110UA
VISTA Home Premium
Prompted by a sudden onset of system hang issues, I attempted a system recovery via the hard drive, having never created a backup set of recovery discs.
Upon completion, the system booted to an MS DOS prompt.
Unaware of what it was asking or seeking, I closed out of it, however rebooting or booting to safe mode only directs to a blank black screen, with nothing visable but the mouse curser.
Any assistance would be highly appreciated.

Dear Customer,
Welcome and Thank you for posting your query on HP Support Forum
Originally the Notebook will have the Recovery Partition and that would give you an option to create a set of Recovery Disk. If you have not created those Recovery Disks when the Notebook was in working condition we cannot do that right now
As of now if you need to recover your Notebook with the new Operating System you can check if the Recovery Partition
is in a working condition or not, If yes you can easily recover/restore your Notebook
If Recovery Partition is corrupted
You need to call HP Technical Support and request for a set of Recovery Disks , So you can recover/restore your Notebook at the earliest
OR
You need call up Microsoft and purchase an Operating System with the License Key, So you can recover/restore your Notebook at the earliest
I strongly recommend you to Contact HP Technical Support over the Phone for further assistance without any delay
Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again

Presario cq-57 Recovery Failure

I replaced the hard drive on my cq-57 319-wm, ordered the recovery meia (windows 7 64 bit). When I start the recovery It gets to a certain point and then it show an error saying "The recovery attempt has failed.
Select one of the following buttons". Save log Details Retry. And nothing I have tried seems to work. Is it the recovery disc's themselves damaged? Please help.

Sometimes the 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.
