I made a set of Recovery DVD's for my computer (HP 15-g028ca Notebook PC running Win 8.1) but can't locate information about how to use them to get back up and running again,  IF my hard drive ever fails.  Help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

failed to create d:\sdv.flg

I am helping a friend with her HP dm4-2058ca. Her hard drive crashed so we bought a new one as well as ordering a set of recovery discs from HP. I am trying to do the recovery of the drive and at the 6% mark, I get the following error;

 

failed to create d:\dsv.flg.

 

I am guessing this might have to do witrh the fact that the original drive that came with the machine would have been partitioned with a c and d drive. Is this the problem and if so is there a way to pre-partition the drive. How big does the recovery partition need to be?

Recovery Windows Reinstall - How to preserve partitions

$

Hi,

 

I have tried to  recover my Windows 7 installation through the Receovrery Manage: restart, ESC, chose F11 for system recovery.

Several options are shown to restore/recover/reinstall...

I expected the system to ask me in which partition I wanted to reinstall (I had 3 partitions: C: (system) and 2 additional partitions that I had created).

But I could not find any option to choose the partition.

 

Since I had backed up the whole disk drive, I took a chance and chose to reinstall "in the windows disk" (or somehting like that).

 

The result is that the entire Disk has been reformatted before Windows was installed. The partions have been crashed and all data deleted.

 

Could you please let me know what the procedure is in order to reinstall Windows 7 directly in the C: drive, without having the whole drive reformatted, so that newxt time it could save me some time of having to recreate my partitions and restore the data ?

 

Thanks for your support.

Need Windows 8 Serial number after crashed harddrive

I am using a Sleekbook 15-b129wm. My hardrive crashed. I had another hdd laying around so I wiped it, installed it, then used a windows 8 iso to get things moving along. Windows is now installed but when it asked for the serial number, I looked for it on the computer in sticker form but apparently this is no longer a thing. I also looked behind the battery and there is no sticker there either. I read somewhere that the windows serial number is now encoded in the bios but I do not see that in my bios. I cannot seem to get anything off of my old hard drive (which is only about 9 months old) and I do not feel like spending money for an HP customer care line if they just tell me I need to buy windows again. Maybe someone here can point me in the right direction. Thank you.

Hp Pavilion g6 laptop

Hi,

 

My laptop is an HP Pavilion g6 laptop and I believe it is having booting issues. When I turn it on, it shows the "Start Windows Normally" button. When I select it, it starts up as usual but then stops with my wallpaper as the background with a little box at the top left-hand corner. It says "Personalized Settings" at the top and below that is says "Setting up personlized settings for: Themes Setup". It stays that way for the rest of the time I leave the laptop on. How can I fix it?

 

Thank You

My HP Mini (Product ID VU124UA) crashed.  It doesn't boot (see error message below).  It was running Windows 7 Starter.  I have a Windows 7 32-bit repair dic, but the HP Mini doesn't have a CD/DVD drive.  How do I recover my HP Mini?  May I copy the disc to a USB drive stick?  If yes, what image should be used for the copy?  Thanks.

I recently had to restore my laptop to factory settings due to viruses. Everything seems to be in working order, however I lost access to Windows office that came pre-installed on this laptop. Now I only have Windows starter which is not everything I need. How do I get access to the full MS office without having to pay for it since it came with my computer initially
