How can I do system recovery without a recovery cd?

March 52010

Posted in recovery | 3 Comments »

I have a HP pavillion dv6000 laptop. I did a system recovery and everything seemed to have worked okay. I hibernated my laptop and when I turned it on a system error appeared and said that I must insert the recovery cd.

It said that I can request a recovery cd from HP, but the problem is my cd drive is broken. Is it possible to somehow put the recovery disk on a usb drive and run it from there or something?

Thanks for any help.

Try this and see if this will help: http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-22_11-5928902.html , you will need to acquire that recovery cd from HP and create an image of the cd from someone else’s computer using IMGBurn: http://www.imgburn.com/ , then youll need a virtual drive drive to mount the OS: http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html , that will make the image act like the cd without really using the cd to create a USB boot OS to repair the original. Just follow the instructions of the first article I sent. The reason I give this long winded route is so that you can use the image more than once if necessary that and you have some extra tools to mess around with if you need to make a recovery USB drive rather than a full blown OS on the drive itself.

If I jailbreak my iPod touch, and then restore it with iTunes, will the data I have from my apps be deleted?

March 52010

I want to jailbreak my iPod touch 3rd gen to see what’s it’s like when tethered. But when I restore it will it delete my app data? Like all my saved game progress?

As long as its backed up? No.
However, my phone is soooooo cool jailbroken.
But if you need to keep the jailbreak use this:

I bought a HP computer from Fry’s Electronics and I made a copy of the recovery disk but i had lost the disk. How can I get a recovery disk for my PC?
Thank You very much!

Yes you can if it’s not so old that it’s no longer supported. You’ll need to have the model number an then go to the hp order page here:

You have to order them online and they send them to you in about a week through regular mail .They’ll cost you around $ 15.

How to restore hard drive from created backup Recovery Discs?

March 12010

I created Recovery discs to backup my hard drive. I was prompted to create a set of five discs but some error prevented me from creating the last one. Hope that won’t show to be an issue later.

Now, my system crashed and I need to get all my data back, but am unsure of the steps to take to do so from the recovery discs. Can you tell me how and anything things else I might need to know? Thanks so much!

Did you put the first recovery disc in the cd/dvd drive & reboot the computer & see if it allows you to boot off the cd? If nothing happens then you will need to go into the bios & see if its set to boot the cd first then the hard drive.

If this is set correctly, then you probably didn’t make the boot cd. Since you had an error, its possible you will still have issues.

How to retrieve a removed Recovery Hard Drive?

February 272010

I currently have a Compaq Presario 2000 laptop, and whilst reformatting my C: drive, I accidentally also deleted the D: (Compaq_Presario) Recovery Hard Drive, and now no longer appears after successfully having fully reformatted my C: drive.

What can I do to retrieve the D: (Compaq_Presario) Recovery Hard Drive on my laptop?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanx!

A programme like Acronis Recovery Expert (part of their Disk Director Suite) can help you recover even "fully reformatted" hard drives. I’m sure there are Freeware solutions too. Try http://www.pcinspector.de/Sites/file_recovery/download.htm?language=1# for example.

The less you did after formatting the drive, the better are your chance of a full recovery.
