Recovery process hangs at 8%

pls. I formatted ma PC mistakenly. I wanted it to go back to factory state, f11 was not working so I ordered some recovery set from HP. I got them. but the problem now is that the disk 1of 3 hangs at 8% of coping files. tried it several times still the same tin. no error message just hangs there. wen it get to that 8%, the disk starts to jerk , making some noise to show it not spinning well anymore. I don't know wat to do. am not much of an IT person so am shut down. pls any help would be highly appreciated. its a windows 8.1 os recovery disk.

the formating completely wiped ma hard drive. so am having a blank notebook. wen i turn it on, it tess me to install an operating system. I don't wanna install any retail operating system. I like the factory installed one more cuz of it features and stuff. so I going crazy... lookin for wazs to set this straight. I really appreciate u taking to me....seriously thanks.

    Hi:
    I found this...
    The recovery failed to start, or did not complete
    There are several reasons for errors when recovering your computers to the original condition. One common solution is to perform a hard reset before trying to do a recovery. Remember that you should disconnect all peripheral devices and turn on the wireless device switch before running the recovery from a recovery disc.
    What is a hard reset
    A hard reset clears all temporary settings and forces Windows to do a complete scan of the system to recognize hardware components like the hard disc or optical disc drive.
    Unplug the AC adapter from the notebook PC.
    Remove the battery from the notebook battery compartment.
    Remove the computer from any port replicator or docking station, disconnect cables to printers or devices such as external monitors, USB memory sticks or SD cards, headset or external speakers, mouse or auxiliary keyboard, turn off WIFI and Bluetooth wireless devices.
    Press and hold down the power button for about 15 seconds to drain any residual electrical charge from the capacitors that protect the memory.
    Insert the battery and plug the AC adapter back into the notebook PC; but do not connect any of the peripheral devices.
    Press the power button to turn the notebook PC back on.

  • [Solved] Boot process hangs for installed Arch and installation usb

    Hi. I've been using Arch Linux for around 6 months now and I'm in love with it. It is now my primary OS. However, I might have done something or performed some update, and I can no longer boot into Arch. The boot process hangs right before it should show the login screen (I'm using Gnome 3.6 with GDM). I see the following messages on the screen:
    Loading Linux core repo kernel ...
    Loading initial ramdisk ...
    /dev/sda3: recovering journal
    /dev/sda3: clean, 330610/1749664 files, 5585671/6996827 blocks
    And then it hangs right there. I have to hard-reboot after this.
    I then tried to boot using the Arch Linux Installation USB (archlinux-2012.12.01-dual.img), which also hangs at a particular point, before it should show me the prompt. I took a picture of the screen where it hangs: Screen Capture. This is an issue with just my laptop, because the USB boots just fine on another laptop I tried.
    I also have Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.10 installed on my system, and I'm able to boot into both of them.
    I have 2 hard drives: /dev/sda is a 120GB SSD, and /dev/sdb is a 500GB hard disk. My partitions are as follows:
    sda1 - Windows 7 100MB System Reserved Partition (boot flag enabled)
    sda2 - Windows 7 OS
    sda3 - ArchLinux (boot flag enabled)
    sdb1 - Ubuntu 12.10 (boot flag enabled)
    sdb2 - Just data
    I ran bootinfoscript and below is the output:

    Ok.. So my Arch Linux randomly decided to work. I'm sure I didn't do anything between my last "not working" state and my current "working" state. Below are a few things I tried:
    I thought of trying an earlier build of ArchLinux, and downloaded archlinux-2012.11.01-dual.iso and made a bootable USB out of it. It still hung.
    I was getting error messages during Arch boot that the last access time for the disks was at a future date. I found out that Ubuntu was using localtime instead of UTC and screwing up my hardware clock. I fixed it, and thought maybe the time issues were causing the boot problem. But fixing time didn't solve my problem.
    I chrooted into Arch from my Ubuntu install, ran 'sudo pacman -Syyu' and updated my Arch install.
    I thought maybe GDM isn't starting up. I re-enabled the service using 'systemctl enable gdm.service'.
    I removed OpenNTPd and installed NTPd. Enabled the daemon using 'systemctl enable ntpd'
    None of the above solved the problem, and rebooting to Arch still hung the system. So I stopped fiddling with it yesterday. Today, as usual, I just tried logging into Arch.. And it just worked out of the blue. The solution to me is as mysterious as the problem.
    I told this to my friend who introduced me to Arch, and this is what he said:
    Damn it computers, you were supposed to be deterministic!

  • Toshiba A105 BIOS Recovery Process Questions

    Hi!
    Ive got a Toshiba Laptop A105-S4284, Model #: PSAA8U-0FH02K that froze while trying to flash the BIOS. Now, when I try to boot it up, it gets stuck in the same place it did during the flashing; on the Toshiba splash screen with the status bar at the bottom showing about 20% complete. Options available on this screen are: Press F2 for System Settings and F12 for Boot Menu. Pressing F2 results in a beep and the status bar is replaced with the text "Please Wait..." but nothing else happens no matter how long I wait. Pressing F12 doesnt do anything. Pressing ESC takes me to a screen that shows the typical system info -- Phoenix Technologies Version 6.00; Intel Calistoga CRB.T3A Reference BIOS; VERSION.MAK 1.53. It looks like its at least partially POSTing since it shows CPU, Cores, No TPM or TPM has a problem, and system RAM and stops there. I cant get into the BIOS and cant boot into Windows.
    Ive read the posts on here regarding the BIOS Recovery Process and was hoping someone could provide some clarification for me, especially since Ive already waited a week with no reply on another tech support site forum. :-(
    Anyways... Ive downloaded the Crisis Recovery.zip files to create a Recovery Disk and am trying to follow the instructions.
    There are a bunch of files in the .zip and Im not sure exactly which files I need to have on the boot disk Im creating.
    The files in the .zip are:
    - crisboot.bin
    - CRISDISK.BAT
    - makeboot.exe
    - minidos.sys
    - phlash16.exe (actually PHLASH16 version 1.6.5.4)
    - wincris.exe
    - wincris.hlp
    Ive downloaded the BIOS Update from Toshibas website for the A105-S4284. Which file do I need to rename to BIOS.WPH and add to my Recovery Disk directory? Do I want "s10gm600.rom" or "1988d600.ima"? I extracted the file from the bootable BIOS installation diskette (1988d600.exe) to get the 1988d600.ima file.
    I ran wincris.exe and only the following files end up in the directory Ive designated for my Recovery Disk:
    - BIOS.WPH
    - MINIDOS.SYS
    - PHLASH16.EXE
    Do I need any of the other files from the original .zip?:
    - crisboot.bin
    - CRISDISK.BAT
    - makeboot.exe
    - wincris.exe
    - wincris.hlp
    If someone could provide some clarification on which files to use and most importantly, if those are the correct files for the laptop Im trying to fix. I think all the posts Ive read are for laptops newer than this one and it seems the secret to succeeding at recovering a BIOS is using the CORRECT files. Ive searched all over and cant find any posts from someone with an A100/A105 who has been able to do a BIOS Recovery from a CD, USB floppy or USB flash drive.
    Is there ANY hope?
    Thanks in advance for your time and assistance with this; its GREATLY appreciated. 
    Sarah ;-) 

    Hi Sarah,
    I had the same thing happen to my A105 4094.  I've looked at some of the other blogs, but I'm not sure if I should try the corrective action they suggest.  Not sure how common the different models are. 
    I'm going to keep trying to resolve this.  If I find something that works, I'll write again and let you know.  Please do the same for me and other A105 owners.
    Thanks,
    Jamie

  • Problems with Satellite L775D-S730​5 System Recovery Process

    1.  Grandson accidentally erased 500GB internal hard drive. Recovery partition was not available.  Ordered, paid for and received Toshiba "SW Media-DVD-SATELLITE-L775-Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium-EN" recovery media.
    2.  While going through recovery process (3 times) to "Restore to Factory Out of the Box Settings" using Disk 1 of 4 - received "can't read from source file or disk" read errors from the following four boot related files:
    (a)  Boot64.WIM, Type: WIM File,  Size: 142 MB,  Date Modified: 11/3/11 12:28pm
    (b)  BCD,  Type:  File,  Size:  256 Kb,  Date Modified: 11/4/10 5:52pm
    (c)  Boot.SDI,  Type:  SDI File,  Size:  3.02 MB,  Date Modified: 11/4/10  6:18pm
    (d)  EFTSBoot,  Type:  MS-DOS Application,  Size:  4.00 Kb,  Date Modified:  11/4/10 5:52pm
    (e)  At end of Disk 1 recovery process received error - Toshiba Recovery Wizzard INITRECAREA.EXE - Application Error.  "The instruction at 0x75D5FF26 reference memory at 0x01D700.  The required data was not placed into memory because of an I/O error status of 0xc000009c."  The Recovery Process was terminated due to Error 9c.  Select (Finish).
    3.  Reported issue to Toshiba Support - who sent a new set of recovery media to verify if either defective recovery media or defective installed 500 GB hard drive.
    4.  Repeated recovery process (3 times) with new media set - had exact same results as above.  Assumed had internal hard disk problem according to Toshiba Support.
    5.  Ordered, received and installed new 1 Terabyte Toshiba 2.5 inch internal hard drive (PH2100U-1I54).  Reset BIOS to Default (F2, F9, F10) and system recognized new hard drive as MQ01ABD100.
    6.  Repeated recovery process (3 times each) with both sets of recovery media - had exact same results as above.
    7.  Reported issue to Toshiba Support and asked because obtained same "can't read boot related source file errors" on two sets of recovery media with two different hard drives - was there a possibility of defective recovery media, or some other problem?
    8.  Toshiba Support would not acknowledge and indicated could not send another recovery media set because had already sent two.  Also indicated new hard drive was probably improperly installed (because of configuration issues) and recommended seek local technical assistance.
    9.  Sought local technical assistance and was not able to recover system using Toshiba recovery media (said to be defective).  Verified sucessful installation of internal hard drive and no other laptop problems.
    10.  Able to re-install system using Windows 7 Professional installation CD, downloading YTD Toshiba BIOS and hardware drivers, and installing latest ATI video/graphics drivers.      

    I understand the issue you're having & realize that it's a frustrating experience going through this. Can't understand why it didn't work with the original hard drive, unless it had some bad sectors or possibly even bad RAM. The tech who checked it out would have (or should have) caught any RAM issues.
    However, on some systems, an extra DVD should be in the ordered recovery set in case a new or different size HDD is used, I had this experience with HP. Installed a 750GB WD Caviar Black in place of the OEM supplied 320GB Caviar Blue, my created recovery DVD's (3) wouldn't do the job. HP provided me a new set with the 4th DVD for $16. It worked. I didn't realize it until later, the ISO for that issue could have downloaded from the site. My fault for not checking.
    Makes me wonder if this was the case in your situation. This doesn't happen often, but when it does, that extra DVD is needed.

    At any rate, glad to hear that you got it working, though probably your complete utility package wasn't installed. More than likely enough to be OK though, some of these options are seldom used, & are simply using drive space, especially those with SSD's. I just clean installed Windows 8 Pro onto my Toshiba A665-S6086 & after using the Toshiba Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant to install the needed software (I chose all), it's the largest Windows 8 Pro install that I've done (after all updates/apps were installed). Usually less than 30GB is used, counting Office 2010 Pro Plus, this one is 38GB, was 44GB until the temp files & restore points except the last were deleted.
    Best of Luck,

  • T40 missing or corrupted \windows\system file after recovery process

    My T40 Thinkpad had a corrupt drive so I secured the recovery disks from IBM to rebuild the hard disk.  The recovery process seemed to work well, but when completed and prompted to remove all disks and reboot, the system booted and failed before Windows XP loaded with an error message that the windows\system file was corrupt or missing.  Any recommendations on how to succesfully recover?  Thanks.

    boot off the WinXP Disc and run a repair.  Did it mention the boot.ini file being corrupt, or something else?

  • Import process hangs indefinately on JPG and AVI files

    Hi,
    I'm seeing a similar issue to some of the other posts.
    My configuration is Windows 7 x64, 4GB RAM and a Core i7. All the photos I want imported have been moved to the C drive.
    When I try to import a folder with a couple of sub-folders containing a total of about 3000 JPG and AVI files (from a CANON 450D and Fuji Finepix 200EX), the import process hangs inderfinately, and I need to kill the process.
    Only around 500 photos get imported.
    One strange thing is that I am only able to preview a couple of the files in the preview grid. However when selecting to view a single file instead of the grid view I am able to view the file in question.
    I have tried to import one file at a time (for a couple of the ones that fail that is) but the import process still hangs, even though I am able to view the file itself before import.
    Have also tried only JPG files, same result.
    Any ideas?
    thanks

    What happens if you try to copy these files to your iMac first? Your problem may not be that applications quit when opening but rather you're having problems simply accessing the disk.
    If your external disk was formatted as NTFS by your Windows machine then your Mac will not be able to write back to the disk. Your applications may be attempting to save temporary or permanent files back to the disk. Verify this by going to the Apple menu and selecting "About This Mac". Click the "More Info..." button. Under the Hardware section on the left, look for your drive. It's probably under ATA. Select your drive and look at the "File System". If it is formatted as NTFS, you can copy the files to your iMac, and use the Disk Utility to reformat the drive to a Mac or MS-DOS format.
    This could also be a symptom of disk corruption. You can begin troubleshooting by using the Disk Utility found in /Applications/Utilities to verify/repair your disk. If Disk Utility finds problems but is unable to fix them, you can purchase third party tools such as DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro to attempt to repair your disk.
    Hope this helps! bill

  • Database creation process hangs

    I am manually creating a database on Windows 2k3 server using Oracle 11 r2. Using the Database Configuration Assistant to create a database, the process hangs for hours.
    I figured out and triedthe following:
    1. I have attempted using the GUI tool more than once to create the database and each time it hangs.
    2. Using the scripts have been created using the with configuration tool, I manually attemped to create database. -- I have attempted more than once.
    3. The database creation process hangs while running the EXECRM.SQL file that is called by the CATPCNFG.SQL which is called by CATPROC.SQL which is called by CreateDBCatalog.sql
    3. The EXECRM.SQL file hangs on the following statement EXECUTE DMBS_RMIN.INSTALL;
    I'm not sure why the PL/SQL packag is hanging at this point. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,

    I was able to create the databases prior to installing Enterprise Manager Grid control. I deleted the databases to re-create so they would be registered with Enterprise manager. Once I install Enterprise manager the creation process hung. I have also installed Essbase and Oracle/Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Suite on the server. I'm trying to do some research on these BI tools.
    I'm tempted to uninstall Essbase and the Hyperion producst along with Enteprise Manager and start from scratch to test to see if I can create a database without these other products.

  • Process Hang

    Hi,
    I have a problem that I put on the back-burner a few months ago, but it has become more important again.
    I have a daemon which maintains a multiplexing stream stack. Every once in a while when the daemon exits and tears down the stack (flushing the queues), I start seeing a number of other processes hanging. I can still interrupt out of them, but their tasks can't be completed.
    For example, "sleep 1" would never return.
    Forgive me for not being exact. I don't have my copy of the kernel source with me here, and I won't be able to get to it until next week.
    I used the kernel debugger to find where in the kernel sleep's thread was hung, and I discovered that it was stuck on a mutex in a kernel function that allowed the process to go to sleep and be swapped out. The kernel should have awoken the mutex but never did. The mutex was contained in the process structure.
    I'm wondering if this is a problem that would have been fixed in one of the patches on the Sun Support site, or if it is something stupid that I have done in my drivers. I thought it may have been a stray spl that I missed when converting them to perimiters (I used mutually exclusive inner perimiters), but that doesn't seem to be it.
    Any help is appreciated. I'll try to supply more details if necessary.

    If it runs for several hours before failing, it's handling a LOT of data. If freeing things after every iteration is going to goof the speed up too much don't do it. Right now, the GUESS is that if resources are never freed until the end, they become exhausted. Freeing every iteration may be the pendulum swinging from one extreme to the other, and hopefully a middle ground can be found.
    If these files are routinely in the terabyte range, instead of freeing each segment, you could free each file. I'd be happy with a data structure that lasted a terabyte! Or if you're doing multiple directories, each directory. With the massive amount of data that you're processing, a subtle memory leak could be doing this.

  • Recovery process applies old archivelogs on standby database

    Right now my standby database is in sync with my primary database and is waiting for the archived log sequeuence# 8378 to arrive.
    But when I stop the recovery process (alter database recover managed standby database cancel;) and re-start it (alter database recover managed standby database disconnect), it starts all over again and starts applying archive logs starting from the sequence# 5739 (looks like its scanning thru the logs). To catchup with primary it takes 2+ hours as it need to skim thru all the logs starting from 5739 to 8377.
    Please let me know if you need any further information to fix this.

       V$ARCHIVED_LOG
    WHERE
       DEST_ID=2
    AND
       APPLIED='YES'
    );Change DEST_ID as needed for your system. I would also bump the parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES assuming its set to default to a higher value up to 30.
    Maybe instead of stopping the recovery process you should DEFER on the Primary
    alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=defer;Change the _n from 2 to what your system requires. I use this and have watch DG catch up 200 archives in about 15 minutes.
    You have Standby Redo setup and are using the same size as your redo right?
    Have never seen the Standby try to apply twice.

  • RWB status 'delivering' and SQL process hangs

    I am sending an IDOC to SQL Server thro XI using JDBC adapter. I am triggering a stored procedure to update SQL tables. The RWB status says 'delivering', sxmb_moni says 'successful' and all the steps are success in audit log. The status 'delivering' is not changing to sucessful.
    When i look at SQL-server side, the process is in sleeping mode. I have verified the stored procedure and it was executed sucessfully. After the COMMIT TRAN, RETURN(0) statments, the process is going to 'sleeping' mode. The @@trancount is 2. If I double click the process, the sql statement is 'IF @@TRANCOUNT > 0 COMMIT TRAN'. This process hangs at this step and it is not accepting the next message. If I kill the process, the stored procedure is executed once and its going to sleep mode and not returning the status to XI to make the flow complete or to change the status to successful.
    Thanks.

    HI Shankar ,
    Its seems that there might be some problem in your srored procedure.Did u tried to use some other stored procedure.I assume that you have uploaded the right version of driver for SQL server you are using.Remember JDBC adapter is vendor and version dependent.
    You can also look at the JDBC : FAQ at service market place.
    Thanx  & Regards

  • Restart on primary database restarts the recovery process on standby

    We have a dataguar broker configuration running in maximum perfromance mode.
    Every time we start the primary database, the recovery process on standby gets restarted.
    I can consistently reproduce teh problem. Looks like expected behaviour.
    Even if standby is in read only mode and restart the primary database it bring the database back in recovery mode.
    Any explanation why oracle needs to do it?

    Any explanation why oracle needs to do it?Yes, When you enable broker it very common behaviour.
    When ever you bounce the database also MRP process will be started automatically.
    By disabling broker you can avoid automatic startup, BTW Standby should be in recovery mode, i think no need to worry on this.
    If you want to disable as per time, you can disable it as below

  • IPlanet 4.1 Web Server - ns-cron process hangs for log rotation

    Does anybody know if there is a known issue with iPlanet 4.1 Web Server where the ns-cron log rotation process hangs up?
    Basically it won't rotate any logs, and using either the "Stop" or "Restart" buttons in the console won't shut it down, so you have to kill it manually, then start it again.
    It seems like it will run for a couple days fine, then it will hang up.
    Thanks.

    Nope, I've not seen this before. But 4.1 version is really old and no longer supported, you should consider upgrading to a supported version.

    Hello k877
    I am sorry to hear you are having issues reinstalling your operating system. I am providing you with a link here to a document titled Recovery Disk Creation Error Codes (Windows 7). Now document is for creating the recovery disks but the error is showing up in your error log (0xe0ef002f). The error according to the document is the File/directory does not exist. It looks like a function call Deploy() is attempting to access this File/directory and is unable to.
    This leads me to think that it is the disks that you are using. It would stand to reason anyways as you state you have tried this on multiple hard drives. A good test would be to check to see if your error in the error log is the same every time. If it is happening at the same point each time then simply order a new set of discs from here.
    I hope this resolves your installation issue. Thank you for posting your question on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
