Can Recovery Disks Fix A “failed” Hard Drive?

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

I shut down my new pc while windows.net framework was updating, and ever since then I have been getting a BIOHD-8 error in the diagnostic, the only thing that will even run
I really think its just a windows error, I would like to be sure before I put the newly received recovery disks in.
Additional information-
HP Pavillion
E2180
3 GB of ram
Safe mode wont start, gets hung on something like crcdisk.sys
THANKS FOR THE HELP!

Windows 2000 Recovery Help?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

Heres the deal, I recieved my dads older laptop he was given by his work. Right after my warrenty went out on it it decides to break. Now when I reboot my laptop it says:Disk I/0 error: Status = 00001000 windows 2000 could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \Winnt\systems32\drivers\Fastfat.sys and during this time is does a loud continous beeping noise Now I’ve talked to gateway the maker of the laptop and they have been saying I need the recovery disk which I do not have. Then I contacted Microsoft and they are absolutly NO help They just told me go back to gateway and complain. So I was curious if anyone has the files from a recovery disc for Windows 2000 that they can give me or a real tech support (thats free) that will help acually repair my problem and not send it off another direction. Or maybe even a place to get the recovery disk!!!!

Hp Media Center – Windows Xp Freezes / Windows Recovery Fails.?

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

HP m7680n
HP direct info: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docum…
Windows XP Media Center (assumed patch 3, but unknown).
2×250GB SATA HDDs in an unknown RAID configuration.
The computer is 2.5-3 years old.
This computer has recently stopped working properly. Windows freezes up shortly after booting. I tried using the windows XP CD to recover the data, but it said something along the lines of HDD failure, and gave me the following error:
Stop: 0×0000007b (0xf78d2524, 0xc0000035, 0×00000000, 0×00000000)
I then attempted logging into windows recovery in safe modem and attempted Windows Recovery from a previous working date from two weeks ago. It gave me the message that an attempt to write ove read-over memory failed refering to win32k.sys. I didn’t take note of the following error code.
I then just attempted to start windows normally but I got the same error with code:
0×000000BE (0xBF801269, 0×13584021, 0xB9D1BA14, 0×0000000C)
Win32k.sys -address BF977557 base at BF800000
If you need any more information, I’d attempt to collect it. The computer is currently running from a Ubuntu LIVE CD. The computer also is not my own. I can assume it’s some type of HDD failure, due to the age and use of no-name HDDs in RAID. I don’t know what informatio is stored on the HDDs, so I don’t intend to reformat unless needed. I simply want to upgrade to Vista, but I don’t have a license to do this with at the moment and I’d rather stay legit on a computer I don’t own. I can’t get any information from the owner of the computer because she is currently hospitialized.

Recovery Disk For Hp Computer?

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

About six years ago my evil sister-in-law bought a HP computer and I set it up for her. Now she is getting a windows drivers pci sys error, windows won’t open, so I told her to run the recovery system on her computer, which is to press the F10 button upon startup and go through the system recovery process. She said it was starting the recovery process but she never let me know what happened. I don’t know what’s going on (she won’t let me look at the computer itself), but now she is driving me nuts looking for a recovery disk, which I never took. She’s calling me a thief and that I stole it from her. I recall that the computer never came with a recovery disk, that you had the option to make one but no one ever did it. I think that there is partition of the computer that takes over the recovery if there ever is a problem with windows. She is going berserk over this, someone (her ex-husband) told her that all computers come with recovery disks, and that I hid it somewhere on purpose!!!

Anyone Know How I Can Get A Free Copy Of The Cd-based System Recovery Program For Hp Pavilion 7955?

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

I accidentally formatted the special recovery partition in my hard disk (HP Pavilion 7955) and the only method to recover is to run the System Recovery program from the CD which I do not have.
Specifically, I have Windows XP (SP2 installed). My HP will boot or run Windows XP only after I uninstalled the added internal harddisk drive. I verified that my speciall recovery partition has been reformatted; internal systems and application recovery files are defunct; and system restore points gone. Yet, I can create new restore points.
If I connect my internal harddisk drive, I cannot boot and boot-disks do not work. I think I toasted a driver. I can get F1 and I get ‘…config.sys….error line 15…’ and other DOS line messages.
I am surprised the Windows XP boots up. No recovery disk came with HP Pavilion. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I hate to buy from HP when there is free help in YAHOO! land. Any help you give will be greatly appreciated!
