  • A few more questions regarding creation of recovery discs

    HP Pavilon 17 Notebook 17-e040us
    Wireless connection
    In the creating covery discs information that I downloaded from HP's website, it states"if you are prompted for an Administrator password, type the password or providide confirmation.
    How do I create an adminstrator password?  The only areas where I have created passwords on the laptop are the Login Screen/Signing In to PC, Mirosoft Account and Computers Description.   How do I provide confirmation?
    Disconnecting from the internet.  After the login screen and go to the start menu I'm not connected to the internet.  Correct?
    Do I have to disconnect exterior equipment from the laptop before creating recovery discs?
    During the creating process, if it should stop or ,get a message something is wrong, what do I do?
    Thank you.
    This question was solved.

    You aren't likely to be asked for Admin password unless you are using a User account created with Limited permissions-such as one would set up for another user on their machine.Some people share a machine with kids,teens and setup a Limited account for them.
    I have never really worried about disconnecting from Internet -just don't have Internet Explorer or Email app open and active on internet.You could always turn off the Wireless I guess. Usually the F12 key in top row turns wieless off/on by tapping. White light=On.
    If you run into a problem...just post that problem if the Recovery Manager doesn't give details of what you need to do to correct it. You can always phone HP and request Recovery Media if the process fails for you.
    Just try to stop worrying and over-thinking it.Go for it!

  • Need feedback regarding the recovery discs

    Hi,
    I have recently acquired a T61 with Vista Business. It did not come with pressed rescue CDs, therefore I immediately generated the set of 10 recovery CDs using the Lenovo software.
    I will have to move some partitions soon (to install BSD and other experimentations). The computer came with 2 partitions, the first one being a 6GB containing the recovery part and the second one being the installed system. If I remove them (or move them), will the recovery CDs recreate these partitions, reformat and reinstall them as initially? Even if I completely wipe the drive and remove all partitions? Or are there differences (do I need to redo the initial partitioning again) ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Message Edited by zeb on 04-28-2008 11:57 AM

    The recovery media  should return the machine to the same state you received it in.  My TP has shipped and the first thing I plan to do is to create the recovery CD/DVDs AND make sure they work before experimenting. 
    ..."I immediately the set of 10 recovery CDs"...I assume you meant that you made the set yourself, right? 
    There are some reports of people who ordered VistaBus also receiving XP downgrade recovery discs, but they didn't realize that and neglected to make their Vista recovery discs from the HD before messing with the partitions.

  • Error while creating recovery discs on HP Pavilion p7-1147b Win7

    While creating the 2nd of 3 ea. system recovery discs, I get an error message during the "verifying disc" phase that terminates the process.  I'm using high quality DVD+R 4.7gb discs and have tried several brands.  I had same problem on the 1st disc, but it finally finished after 3 tries - now I can't get the 2nd disc completed to get to the final one.  The DVD burner seems to work fine for other applications. I really don't want to purchase these recovery discs from HP.

    Hi,
    Try creating the rest of the Recovery Discs in Safe Mode as follows.
    Shut down the PC.  Tap away at f8 as you start the PC to enter Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode and hit enter.  When windows has fully loaded in this mode, launch the recovery disc creator application and see if you can complete the creation of your discs in this way.
    To exit Safe Mode, just restart the PC and Windows will boot normally.
    If this still fails to create a viable set of Recovery Discs and you are within your warranty period, call HP ( the telephone numbers can be found on the relevant link below ) and explain that the Recovery Media Creator application fails to create a viable set of recovery discs and request that they send you a free replacement set.
    If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
    If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

  • Windows 8 Recovery Disc not working

    Hi everbody,
    I have purchased a Lenovo Thinkpad T430.
    This laptop came with pre-installed Windows 7 Pro.
    However I want to use Windows 8 which I have a recovery disc for.
    I built in a SSD instead of the optical drive. So I don´t have a optical drive.
    On this SSD I want to run my OS.
    With a software from Samsung (manufacturer of my SSD) I was able to copy the Windows7 OS on my SSD.
    As I mentioned above I bought a laptop with installed windows 7 pro and a Windows 8 upgrade disc.
    Therefore I got the "Operating System Recovery Dis Windows 8 Pro. (OEM Activation 3.0 Required)".
    The problem now is that I have an upgrade disc but no optical drive.
    So I created an image of the upgrade disc and with this image I have created a bootable USB stick with the following program:
    http://www.chip.de/downloads/UNetbootin_34673960.html
    When I boot my laptop using the bootable USB stick everything seems to be working until to the point where I have to accept the EULA.
    So I chose a  language, and clicked on "I accept the agreements".
    When I want to click on "next" I got a error message "recovery failed".
    Please have a look on the following picture taken with my smartphone.
    The language used in this picture is german as i live in Austria.
    Link to image
    Do you know how I can upgrade to Windows 8?
    Can you tell me why the upgrade disc is not working?
    Best Regards,

    Dear Phisto, from your description i cannot tell you anything more about the disk apart from the obvious, that it seems to be incomplete without the other 11 disks of the set. Did you buy this disk from Lenovo, from Microsoft, or is it something that came from unofficial channels? If it is the latter maybe you should not try to install it...
    Now for cloning the SSD back to your HDD. The software that came with your Samsund should be able to do that as well. If not, then if your HDD is a Western Digital you can download and use Acronis WD edition from WD's site, it's free and will do the cloning. Otherwise you should use a free tool, Clonezilla is one of them and of course there are more.
    As for the location of your various drives, I would suggest to keep things really really basic if you want to troubleshoot effectively, so the best thing would be to return the system to a "factory" condition, of course with the SSD in place of the HDD. You don't know which parameter is causing you trouble at this point. So, of course it would be easier to use an external DVD drive (and you should try it!), butif it fails as well you should try also the other approach.
    I hope you solve this.

  • Recovery from recovery discs made with recovery manager on g62

    I got the blue screen of death and had to do a system restore for my hp g62 laptop. Before i restored the computer, the recovery manager launched and had me backup my files. I backed up the system on like 15 discs using hp"s recovery manager. After it was done, i returned the computer back to factory settings. Now, im having a problem using the recovery discs made thru the recovery manager. The files arent being read. I tried to copy them and move them onto the hard drive....and they are all saved as .wim files....which arent read by anything. So i have all my files backed up, but that arent opening. How the hell do i open my files that i backed up? How do i put my files back on the computer?

    Hi,
    I've never really used the HP File Recovery system, but you can open an Image file as follows.
    Download and install 7-Zip from the following link.
    http://www.7-zip.org/
    When installed, right click on the .wim file, select 7-Zip, select Extract Files and click Ok - your files should be in the newly extracted folder.

  • Hard drive replacement with recovery disc problems - Windows Troubleshooter Error 0x8E5E0247

    I have a 2009 Satellite A505 laptop
    64-bit Operating System with Windows 7 Home Premium, 4 gigs of RAM, and Intel Duo CPU, 2.20GHz
    The original Toshiba 500 GB Hard drive finally gave up the ghost and I replaced it yesterday with a WD Scorpio Blue HD Model WDBABC500ANC-NRSN (SATA 8 MB :Mo Cache 5400 RPM)
    Easy, straight forward replacement.  No problems.
    I got out my Recovery Discs which I created using the Toshiba recovery disc utility back in 2009. As I remember, at the time, the process of creating these discs was easy, and it was the first thing I did after registering my computer.
    The process created 5 discs, which the last, number 5, is the Applications and Drivers.  I have done this process before on other computers (Gateway and Toshiba) and it is usually pretty straight forward and problem free.
    Not so this time, and have to wonder about the Toshiba Recovery Discs that were created!  Why aren't these working correctly?
    I followed the normal process to boot the new Hard Disc on the DVD Recovery Disc 1, and everything seemed to work normally.  I followed every "next" prompt, and installed each new Disc 2, and 3 as prompted.
    After Disc 3, it said it was finished, and then went throught the Toshiba unpacking and the Windows installation process with multiple re-starts and Window start ups.  Again, everything seemed normal, except I wondered why I never received a prompt for Dsc 4 which was unused in the recovery process.  Is that normal? 
    During the Toshiba automatic unpacking and installation process, where various drivers were being installed, Windows errors began returning that said something like this, "Windows requires a digitally Signed driver, and the driver is unavailalbe and could not be activated in Windows 7 . Programs relying on them may not work. "  
    The problem drivers included the Realtek RTL8191 SE Wireless Lan 802.11n PCWE, the Richo pcle memory stick, Realtek High Definition Audio, Video Controller, Richo PCLe SD/MMC Host Conroller. and a few others....
    I did not touch the keybroad or intervere in anyway, and let the installation process proceed until everything was installed.  I then went through the first Windows start up process where you set the region, time and create the USER ID, set the adminstrator rights and even got the Toshiba Registration prompt.
    When finished, I noticed that the sound was not working, nor was the Wireless Network Connection, and when I attempted the usual Windows network Trouble Shooting process, it returned a Windows Error which said "A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting"  
    I then viewed the error details.  They said...
    Package ID:  Unknown
    Path:           C:\windows\diagnostics\system\networking
    Error Code:  0x8E5E0247
    USER:          mvh-PC\mvh
    Context:      Restricted
    I then went to MS Windows 7 Troubleshooting forum on the internet using another computer. 
    I followed all the 'cmd' processes for "supposedly" solving these problems by running System File Checker [SFC] scan on the computer which was supposed to replace the missing or corrupt files.
    Well, no joy.  The issue presists.
    After some problems accessing the CBS log, I was able to view it, and it provides no useful information as to why the errors where unable to be corrected.  
    I tried following everything on this MS How to Use File Checker document:
    In my CBS file I got a lot of SQM  "Failed to start" and "Failed to read" and "Failed to upload" and CSI "Repair results created"....
    but did not get any "Cannot repair member file" type of messages to use the 'cmd'
    takeown /f Path_And_File_Name function 
    I then started over.  Rebooted the computer again, starting with Recovery Disc 1 and several hours later was back to the same problem.  Geeze
    I have checked all the various Device drivers that are shown as not working in the Device Manager.  I have tried uninstalling them all, and then re-installing them both automatically during Windows 7 start up, and also from the Recovery Disc 5 which had the original drivers.  Nothing works.
    When I clicked on "Connect to the Internet" on the Windows Control Panel, I am returned a prompt that says "Windows did not detect any networking hardware" and so,even with a direct Ethernet connection to my cable modum, I was unable to download any Windows updates or new drivers to see if that fixes anything.
    I am stumped. 
    Any suggestions out there?  I don't want to waste a lot of money paying for more technical help for an aging laptob.  If this is beyond a simple fix, then I think I will just go and buy a new cheap computer from Asus having wasted the ~$70 bucks for the hard drive for this one.  
    It shouldn't be this hard, should it?  
    I have considered buying new recovery discs directlly from Toshiba, but if the process that came with the computer can't create correct discs that work the first time, what promise do I have that another $29.95 won't just be a waste of money too?
    Thanks for any helpful hints about what I may be missing or overlooking.   
    Regards

    Jerry...
    I think we can close this one out as 95% solved.  I did get the Intel (R) Rapid Storage Technology loaded after installing the Intel (R) Chipset Software Installation Utility.   The instrustions were not the simpliest for the novice, and it took me a while to figure out if my system was running in RAID or ACHI mode.  I decided that it was ACHI, so could proceed, even though I did NOT find this information in the Device Manager where they said I should have...
    Also, it was a little confusing on the Intel site which file to download.  I first did the zip file, (f6flpy-x64.zip) but could not figure how to execute it or put it on a disc, so downloaded the (iata_enu.exe) and hope it was the right one for a 64 bit system.  
    Anyway, I am now connected via Ethernet cable to my modem, and down loading 126 Windows Updates which should take a while.
    My only other issue, that I am aware of is that I do not seem to have any Wireless Lan software, and even though I have added Lan drivers via the recovery Disc, they do not show up anywhere.. Will have to figure out what is going on here, and why it isn't working...
    Maybe it is related to something in the Device Manager called
    "Other Devices"  Under that I have 4 items not working.  They are listed like this...
           Base System Drive,
           Base System Drive (a duplicate?)  
           Network Controller
           Video Controller.  
    I have tried uninstalling them, and allowing Windows to reinstall, but they still are not activated.  Not sure what this is for, and how to update it, but will search some more on another forum thread for these issues.  Maybe I will try again after all my Windows updates are done and see what happens.  
    Thanks again for your help.  If you have any other insights on the Wireless issue, that would be great.  It is turned on, but in the Windows tray, I only get the Ethenet Icon option, and it does not see or present wireless connection options like before.  I am sure this is something simple.  
    cheers

  • Lenovo Recovery Discs: 64bit version and drivers

    My x200 came with Windows XP Pro x86 loaded and a Windows 7 x86 (32-bit) OS recovery and driver DVD. I want to install a x64 bit Windows 7 on this machine using the same Lenovo provided discs (but do not have them)--does anyone know how to get these discs from Lenovo--I believe it free is one has a 32-bit licence already (like I do from lenovo).

    There isn't a recovery disc in the 64 bit flavor for the x100.
    Just use a plain  Win x64 media (don't input the serial during the installation process) , then restore the activation files with ABR (activation backup and recovery), obviously you have to backup them in windows x86, no online activation is needed.
    Then install the drivers from the folder swtools or install just the network drivers an the update tool from lenovo, an let it to update all your drivers and utility.

  • Windows 8.1 recovery without recovery disc or product key

    Hey!
    I own a HP g6-2207sg. After windows 8.1 upgrade and a new set of AMD drivers windows is not starting anymore.
    Not in safe mode, not with different starting settings. Recovery points are not working, from 3 restore points (2 automatic 1 critical update (win8.1)) none is working. 
    I can neither refresh nor reset windows, nor can windows repair the startup (it fails as well).
    I dont have my win8 product key, as it is not in or on the g6 and i never read it out when the laptop was still working.
    I tried reading it out with the help of several 3rd party tools through command prompt, started from a usb stick, which is not working as there are windows functions missing.
    I cant download a fresh .iso of win 8 from windows itself as i dont have the key.

    Hi,
    The Windows 8 Image source does have a download limit in place, but it will usually work if you keep trying for a couple of hours.  The key will be automatically read from the bios during installation.
    I'm not aware of any way you can decipher the encrypted key via the command shell - only from reading its entry from the registry.
    Unfortunayely, as with previous operating systems, neither Microsoft or HP will have any record of this key.
    Another option would be to order a replacement set of Recovery Discs starting on the link below.

  • HP recovery disc failure with the following error message

    Notebook:

    1) "Reformatting the window partition of the ard drive;"
    2) "Copying files required to restore the hard-drive;"
    But at step 3: "Restoring files to the hard-drive", when the progress bar showed 46%, it got stuck and the following  error message popped up:

    PLease help!!!! Thanks a lot!!

    Hi,
    Assuming this is just a problem with the recovery media, here's an alternative option you could try.
    Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
    An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
    You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the exact same version that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here.  These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
    Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
    Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label 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.

  • Recovery Discs New Hard Drive Size

    Hi everyone,
    I had created a set of recovery discs for my HP Pavillion G7 notebook. It was 6 discs. The original hard drive that the Recovery Discs were made from was a 750GB Hard Drive.
    The hard drive started to die on that notebook. I have another notebook that I don't use that has a new 500GB in it. I switched out the Hard drives as they are compatible.
    My question is can I use the Recovery Discs that I had made from the 750gb drive that now is dying and recover on the new hard drive that is 500GB. I started the process but it stalled about halfway through on disc 4. Is that because I put in a smaller hard drive?
    At this point do I need to buy a hard drive that is at least 750GB? 
    Please advise and thanks in advance!  
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Recovery media can have issues if used on drives smaller than the original.
    Another option you could consider, as your notebook originally shipped with Windows 8 and the activation key is stored in the Bios chip, would be to create your own OEM Windows 8 installation disc.
    For details on how to do this, see the 3rd post by Huffer on the following link - Note:  the download is subject to a usage cap, so you may need to try over a period of several hours before it successfully starts
