Recovery HP X16-1160us

I have a HP HDX 16 that came with Windows Vista Premium.  I have run the test and says that hard drive 1 has failed. How do I replace the hard drive and find recovery disks? I get either an error 100a or 1012. I have checked the HP site for recovery disks and they don't appear to be available. I am not under warranty and the recovery disks I made at purchase do not work. I live in the middle of nowhere and have to try to fix this myself.  
product HP HDX16       p/n:NB128UA#ABA         model:X16-1160us

Here are the original factory specs for your HP HDX X16-1160US Premium Notebook Computer. You can order HP Recovery Discs directly from HP at Vista Home Premium 64b SP1 + Supp 1 Recovery Kit or from third party vendor ComputerSurgeons.com at 514181-001 Vista Premium 64 Bit SP1 + Supp 1.
Please see the HP HDX 16 Maintenance and Service Guide for instructions on accessing the hard drive. Replacement hard drives should be 2.5" SATA2 500GB 9.5mm tall (5400rpm or 7200rpm). Try to avoid using "AF" (Advanced Format) drives, as the HP Recovery Discs aren't usually compatible with them.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • Very low volume on hp pavilion dm4-1160us, idt high definition audio codec v 6.10.6289.0

    Hi There,
    Initially when I bought my dm4-1160us, the volume was better but I don't know what happened in between, now the volume is very low. I have re-installing the driver by un-installing and also using the recovery manager but still it didn't help, can someone be of some help in here, thanks in advace

    Praveen,
    If the Troubleshooting tips Danjen provided do not do the trick,
    you might try this as a stop-gap / workaround to regain some control over the volume.  It may work.
    Right-Click on the Sound icon in the Task Bar (or open with Control Panel > icon view > Sound)
    Open Playback Devices
    Click on Speakers and Headphones (to highlight)
    Click on Properties
    Click on Enhancements >
    Select "Loudness Equalization"
    Click OK
    Next,
    Still in Sound > Playback Devices
    Click on Communications tab
    Under "When Windows detects communications activity:"
    Select "Do Nothing"
    Click OK
    You may have to Restart / Reboot the machine for the changes to take effect.

  • Windows seven recovery /install

    Windows seven recovery
    Hi everyone I had a question that I’m sure has been answered many times, I’m new to these forms so give me a break lol. I just bought a HDX x16-1353 and I made recovery disk in vista. I really enjoy the fact that after the install Hp software kicks in and installs all the necessary drivers. What I don’t like is that fact that is it a factory image, so once installed you have to update everything again (HP programs, drivers). I’m planning on buying windows 7 ultimate and I’d like to install fresh in this manner, how do I do this? Must I install windows 7, then download each driver form hp and then make a recovery disk? Or is there a way i can install windows 7 and right at the end of the install have HP software take over like my vista disks and finish the install with everything i need. I also don’t want to include certain progs like Norton. Let me know what you guys think
    Thanks
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Assuming you plan on purchasing Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade, you would begin a "clean install" by booting to your Windows Vista desktop.  While at the desktop, insert the Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade disc in the DVD drive and select Custom Install (this begins the process for what is essentially a clean install of Windows 7).  After the installation is complete, visit the Windows Update web site (the Windows Update icon will be in the Control Panel) and click on Scan for Updates.  Install all the updates, then visit HP Support & Drivers to download any additional/available Windows 7 drivers designed for your specific HP computer model.
    After you are satisfied that your computer is completed updated, you can create a System Image of your hard drive using the tools available in all versions of Windows 7.  For details, please see:

  • Recovery manager program in not running

    sir.
    I have dm4-1160us notebook..
    I want to recover my windows 7 primium from the recovery partition..
    but there is know software for recovery manager right now..
    by mistake I have uninstalled it from my laptop ..so unable to recover my window..
    so please tell me a proper solution.
    how to find the recovery manager software program..
    please tell me the linke on the internet..
    please please please..

    Hi,
    just look at that ENTRY routine. It calls routine PROCESSING and this routine call GET_DATA. Look at the code:
      VBCO3-SPRAS = NAST-SPRAS.
      VBCO3-VBELN = NAST-OBJKY.
      VBCO3-KUNDE = NAST-PARNR.
      VBCO3-PARVW = NAST-PARVW.
    So the key to data is stored in global structure NAST. So fill global NAST structure in your program and call entry routine from RVADDN01. If you want to more about data, just put break point in the entry routine and print sales document from the standard transaction. It should stop there (it depends on customizing which print program is set) and you will be able to check values of all structures.

  • Data Recovery from Partitioned and formatted Bit Locker Encrypted Drive

    Recently because of some issues in windows 7 installation from windows 8 installed OS. it was giving as the disc is dynamic windows can not be installed on it. so at last after struggling hard no other solution i partitioned and formatted my whole
    drive so all data gone included the drive which was encrypted by bit lockers.
    For recovery i used many software such as ontrack easy recover, get data back, recovery my files professional edition but still i couldnt able to recover my data from that drive. then i found some suggestion Using CMD to decrypt my data first 
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee523219(WS.10).aspx
    where it shows it successfully decrypt my data at that moment my drives were in RAW format excluding on which windows is installed and then in CMD i check Chdsk which also shows no problem found. but now problem is still i coudnt able to recover
    my data then i format the drive D and again tried to recover data using above software after decryption still no result. 
    Now i need assistance how i can recover my encrypted drive as it was partitioned and also formatted but decrypted also as i have its recovery key too. thanks

    Hi ,
    I am afraid that we cannot get the data back if the drive has been formatted even if use the
    BitLocker Repair Tool.
    You’d better contact your local data recovery center to try to get data back.

  • Manage-bde command is not generating recovery key on network location

    Hi,
    I am trying to save the recovery key to the network share location and start up key in the USB drive while enabling bit locker.When the OS drive gets encrypted, the default folder for recovery password shows that it contains 1 file but not getting anything
    inside it when i checked the properties of the folder.
    i have already changed the group policy as "choose default folder for recovery password".
    I am using the command to enable the bit-locker as "manage-bde.exe -on C: -rk
    <network location to save recovery key> -sk <location of the USB drive>
    -rp to enable the bit-locker. It is generating the start up key in the USB but not the recovery key on network share.
    Can anyone suggest what i am missing or what else i should do to generate the recovery key on network share.
    Does manage-bde process be able to save the recovery key on network share or it hand over to some other process to perform this task.
    Thanks
    Gaurav Ranjan

    I got you Manoj, but I want to ask you one think that what if i lost the startup  key or my USB stick. I have my recovery key on the network share.  In order to log-in my machine I need the recovery password. From where i will get the recovery
    password(48 digit). Surely from the recovery key on the network share. So how can i get the recovery password if only we have the recovery key.
    I know both are different in context. Both are two different thing. I have lost my USB stick along with the recovery password and I have to log-in my machine. How can i do that i want to know that. Do there is any method to get recovery password from the
    recovery key on network share. I have retrieved the recovery password when the recovery key in AD. But this time it is on network share.
    Also one think which I need to solve is that the manage-bde -protectors -add command creates a new .bek file along with the older one. So the .bek file which get shown at the time of the start up of the machine is different from that stored in the network.
    So i am getting confused as which .bek file is for which machine and hard to retrieve the password.
    Is there any method to store recovery key on network without the -protectors -add command line so that both the .bek file should be matched and can easily be known for indiviual machine in an OU. As if both the .bek files will be different it would be difficult
    to to retrieve the recovery password for the machines.
    Please do inform if you need some more information about the scenario if i missed something.
    Thanks

  • Did PC Recovery and Dowloaded iTunes, wont open, only get error reports.

    I just did a PC recovery and have all of my music from iTunes backed up on a dock drive. I just re-downloaded iTunes and installed it. iTunes won't open, I just get an error report every time. I clicked on the setup file and tried to repair it. I've uninstalled it and redownloaded it. Still the same result. Does anyone have any ideas on what else I could do?

    does that help anyone?

  • My iPhone would just randomly give me a blue screen and then restart--did that a bunch of times between Tuesday and last night. As of last night, it WILL NOT come back on. iTunes says it's in recovery mode....what does all of this mean???

    Tuesday night I was texting a friend and when I went to open her message, my screen went blue and restarted. I just wrote it off as weird and went on about my business. Later that night, I tried to turn on my phone and it would not turn on. I plugged it up, held down the power button, and pressed the home button all numerous times. I looked online and it said to do a "hard reset" by holding down the power and home button at the same time--my phone then came on. Throughout Wednesday, it would give me a blue screen and restart--nothing major just really annoying. I took it to the local Verizon store where I bought the phone from and he said that it was some type of hardware defect and I was still under my year warranty so I could get a new one for free--the free phone won't be here until tomorrow, Saturday. I took it home and it didn't give me any trouble for a couple of hours. The next day it was cooperating and then I left town for a little while and it acted up (blue screen and then restarting) a few times. When I got home, it acted up again and so I restarted the phone and it was working fine. A few minutes later, I tried to check my messages and the phone was off again. No matter what I do, my phone will not come back to life. It had at least 45% battery last time I looked at it. I decided to plug the phone up to my computer and see what it did--my computer recognizes that there is a phone hooked to it and it says that it's in "recovery mode". It also said that if I'm having issues with my phone, that I need to reset the phone via iTunes. I guess the questions that arise are
    1. Why is my phone doing this?
    2. If I reset my phone, will it go back to working again? I ask that because I don't want Verizon to charge me $300 when they send me the replacement phone and I won't need it (assuming that the phone decides to work once it's been reset).
    3. What type of hardware defect is this that is causing this issue, not only with my iPhone 5S but others as well?
    4. Shouldn't people be notifying Apple and letting them know that they need to fix this issue?
    5. Should I report this issue to Apple even though I didn't buy the phone directly from them, but through Verizon?
    Any help that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated! This whole situation has me stressed out and seriously confused.

  • My iPod Touch is stuck in recovery mode after I left it on while updating!!!

    I was updating my ipod touch 3rd generation (ios 4.3, i think) and I saw a wasp and left the computer on in the middle of the updating process and now the ipod is stuck in recovery mode and it says the only way to get it out is to recover it, but that will erase everything!!! HELP ME!!! until i get an answer      I HATE YOU, APPLE URGG
    operating system: whatever the latest available to itouch is.

    Without knowing what the error message said all I can suggest is:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT201263 my iphone 4 went into recovery mode & will not restore. Unknown error 21 comes up on iTunes. Please can someone offer any ideas for a solution?

    I have an iphone 4 nearly 2 yrs old. It has worked perfectly for that time. On Friday last (whilst away on holiday) I took the phone out of my pocket & it was lifeless. I tried switching it on, no joy, I tried the power/home button reset no joy. I plugged it into a mains charger & it came on but had a banner across the screen saying "verification required". I removed the charger & decided I would try again when I got home so I could connect to my PC & iTunes.
    At home I went through the whole above process again but when I plugged it into the mains again it just had the Apple logo going on/off repeatedly. I plugged the phone into my PC & the apple logo appeared followed by the "connect to iTunes". In iTunes I get the banner "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes". So I click on "OK" the "Restore" then a banner asking if I'm sure I want to restopre the iPhone appears, press "Restore & Update". iTunes starts to remove the software, veryfies it with Apple & then another flag "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (21) which appears to be a security issue.
    I thought the above problem was something to do with O2 because I picked up my new iPhone 4S last Tuesday but was unable to set it up until I got back from my holiday, O2 say it isn't anything they've done.
    My question is has it happened to anyone & can anybody offer a solution, is it a hardware or software issue?

    Hi aniketvyas102,
    Thank you for your inqiury, I am happy to help.
    Aferr reading your log, it is all related to the software and not hardware. Therefore it is your disks a fault.  I suggest contacting HP support and explaining the issue in detail to  them.  They will be able to provide you some options.

  • Error while testing recovery plan

    Hi!
    From docs about SRM 6:
    from Install guide
    If you use vSphere Replication, do not select a placeholder datastore that you already use
    as the target datastore for replications.
    from admin guide:
    The replicavirtual machine that vSphere Replication creates and the placeholder virtual machine that
    Site Recovery Manager creates can both reside on the same datastore on the recovery site because they are
    created in different datastore folders. When the replica and placeholder virtual machines are in the same
    datastore, Site Recovery Manager creates the placeholder virtual machine name by using the replica virtual
    machine name with the suffix (1). Site Recovery Manager applies the inventory mappings to the
    placeholder virtual machine on the recovery site.
    so, I guess the best practice is mentioned in the Install guide

    Yes, you can consider the suggestion in the Install guide as "Best Practice". Using the same datastore for placeholders and target for replication is supported, but can create confusion with multiple folders created for the same VM.
    Best Regards

  • Unknown Error during Recovery - iPad no longer Recognized by iTunes

    I have a 3rd Generation iPad which I was attempting to perform a factory reset.  I received an "Unknown Error" during the process and from that point on I have been unable to get iTunes to recognize my iPad in recovery mode (or otherwise).
    I have tried every thread on the subject, but I found one interesting thing.  If I connect the iPad with the same cable, etc. to another computer it immediately recognizes it in recovery mode and offers to restore the iPad.
    It seems like my computer is not recognizing the iPad because it was in the process of restoring the device when the error occurred.  Does anyone know if there is a way to reset or fix this issue.  I would prefer not to update iTunes and download both the new iTunes and iPad software again and use another computer if it is not necessary.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hey KSHItunes,
    That was a good test to try your iPad on another computer.  It does seem to isolate the issue to something with your computer setup.
    Although you would prefer not to update iTunes, there may be steps in this article which can help.

  • HT1212 My 7 year pls has forgotten her passcode for her iPod touch. I have put it into recovery and through iTunes tried to restore. But it will only let me also try to update it with iOS 6.1.3 which no longer allows the bypass of the passcode. Can anyone

    My 7 year old has a passcode on her iPod touch. She forgot it, after multiple attempts at what it could have been, it comes up with disabled etc.....I have tried it in recovery and hooking it up to iTunes (which the device has been previously synced up to) to restore. But the problem I am having is it only gives me the option to update also, to iOS 6.1.3 with the new bug fix which it won't allow you to bypass the passcode. It gets a little into the downloading, turns the iPod on and then asks for the passcode to continue?! I am at a loss as to what to do now, as every forum says put it in recovery and restore. I can't use the 'find my iPhone' app as the iPod is offline. I've tried it on a laptop not prev synced up to and get the same problem. Has any one got any ideas!

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
    - Then try on another computer
