Recovery Disk Full

May 7, 2009

I have a DELL laptop running VISTA. I have noticed that my D (recovery ) drive is almost full. I have gone through the routine of trying to erase all unnecessary files several times. The drive is still almost completely full despite all my efforts. The wastebasket is empty, I have deleted all duplicated files from, nothing works. The computer seems to only use the D drive and the C drive is more than 70% free space.

Disk Full, But Should Not Be Be

Nov 22, 2008

I have Home Premium Vista, 64bit and 688GB hard drive(size when checking C: drive). I recently checked and it showed less than half full. Then a few days ago I tried saving a file and I got disk full message. I checked the c: drive again and it showed full- no space available, which should not be. I did a defrag, check disk and that did not work. I do remember seeing a warning around that time, but it vanished before I read it all. I think it said a file was not working or was corrupted and may have said something about "Catalyst". I found Catalyst Control Center on my computer, but that seems to be ATI card (graphics card?). I did delete a bunch of junk so it can now function, but latest check still shows only 72 MB available and that can't be.

Recovery Disk Reinstall

May 23, 2009

I had to create a windows recovery disk

I used it to system restore her system to a date before she had set her password

and on the menu it said install vista

and on my old laptop that my dad has it's a 2gb compaq presario

they're not made anymore

it has low memory it's very slow and really

hardly useable without getting very stressed

so if I used the recovery disk I created

and click install vista

will it be like a new laptop?

there's nothing needed on the laptop

so nothing is being lost by resetting the laptop

it's got vista home premium x86

Due to some problems, my OS got corrupted and so I re installed vista
ultimate x64 in my laptop. I have installed all the necessary driver
softwares. Can I create a recovery parition or recovery disks with the
current setup? If yes, how? Also how many times can I create recovery
disks? Is it a one time process?

Recovery Disk DL From Neosmart.net

Sep 11, 2009

Unrelated to a recent previous post about a Vista Recovery Disk, I read today on How-To-Geek.com about one that Windows offered that is available for free DL from neosmart.net. It is supposed to function better than the recovery partition that is provided OEM with Vista on laptops. When I went there I DLed the 32-bit torrent file from their link, it turns out to be an html file that is just a bunch of code. I understand that the actual recovery disk is over 100MBs.

Can somebody fill me in about what I am supposed to do to get the actual neosmart torrent file to download with my DL manager (flashget)-- or do I do something with the html file I just got? Or do I have to DL it from their page into a bit torrent program?

OEM Recovery Disk Or Partition?

Nov 4, 2008

I have a Compaq machine with HP software. My machine is running slow (it has a 2.5 rating) and four files come up missing when it boots. I would like to reinstall VISTA (or preferably XP if I can get a copy). I got the computer from a friend who does not remember what disks, if any, came with it. I have SP1 installed but I do not have a recovery disk or an original installation disk. How would I know if there was a installation or recovery disk? Would I likely get anywhere asking Compaq or HP for help?

How To Create A Recovery Disk

Mar 26, 2008

I am trying to create a Recovery Disk in my Acer laptop, I went through their User Manual and there was not enough information to the procedure. Could some one point me in the right direction so that I can do this. My hard disk has a hidden partition of 7.8GB with EISA Configuration but in the Disk Management it says it is 100% Free. The other partition is C: which is my system partition. I hope I have given enough information if not please let me know. I have also requested the Acer but I believe they will only direct me to their eRecovery Management Tool.

OS: Recognize The System Recovery Disk?

Apr 3, 2008

What are the basic differences between XP & Vista? All we do is surf the web, email and download an occasional game. Norton AntiVirus is always on and always up-to-date. My XP machine is dying big time & I can't figure out how to save it. It won't recognize the System Recovery disk that came with the machine, but it will recognize other CDs. That CD must be bent or whatever. The SPs are up to date. I'm running Office XP and it is taking Word and Excel 7 or 8 seconds to load; it used to open in a snap. I installed the latest edition of Firefox and loading web pages with it is taking too long. Most pages should just snap open. I guessed we've been "phished" or whatever because some of the ads I run into know that I live in Seattle. Our network connection is DSL and we haven't made any changes of any consequence that I know of to this machine in ages. I put SpyBot on it a week ago and twice when WinXP started, the Spybot folder opened. Not the program but the folder.

Vista Preinstalled Recovery Disk

Mar 23, 2008

I'm having difficulty in parsing this quote from Microsofts own website "The 64-bit editions of Windows Vista&8212;available for all editions of Windows Vista except Starter" Now, I have an x64 CPU architecture PC, 4 GB of system ram, and only the 32-bit version of Vista Premium* pre-installed*. And unless I'm mistaken, I'm only entitled to a Recovery disk that I create or order from Hewlett Packard. I don't want to buy an upgrade or full install of the 64-bit Ultimate Edition. However, I do want the 64-bit version of the Premium Edition instead. Microsoft says that I can get a 64-bit edition here: Even if it requires a custom install (AKA "fresh install), I'm OK with that. Can I obtain the 64-bit Premium Edition (if it exists)? Has anyone done this?

How Can Windows Recovery Disk Making

May 19, 2010

The wife has a box with 64bit Vista and someone ran a registery cleaner on it and cleaned the registery so clean that the system would not start windows. It went through the screen that gave the choices for set-up, recovery, etc then the safe, normal, etc start screen and regardless of what chose it would go dark and windows would never start but the activity light would keep flickering showing it was trying to do something. I took it in and repair used the recovery disk to set it back to factory setup!! :-(Is it possible to make a to make a recovery disk (as the factory labeled it) of the way I get it set that would be like the factory recovery disk which has a rcd.dat file and an image directory on disk 1 and a rcd2.dat file and an image directory on disk 2 so if the thing crashed again at the startup options screen that has the recovery option I could just use my home made recovery disk instead of the factory ones??

I know I can make a backup but if the system will not get past the screen with the recovery option what good are they. Will accept any comments on backups as long as I can also get an answer to the original recovery disk question also. Would be nice if I could do this on wife Vista box AND my XP box.

Recovery Disk The CD Drive Lights But It Will Not Start From There

May 2, 2009

My Vista desktop took forever to shut down last night and today it will not start at all. The hard drive spins briefly and then gives up. I have a recovery disk the CD drive lights but it will not start from there. I would like to get it up briefly to be sure I have no new photos to back up. I have Wubi Ubuntu installed and if I could get the thing started at all, I would be able to use it to make sure I can recover anything that I desperately need. I tried to start it with PC Linux OS which is capable of running from the CD drive, but no joy there either. I would love to give you more specifics but I can't since I can't view the info, I can't. It is an E-machine, one of their T series with 180 gig hard drive. It's got lots of RAM. I was running Vista but it was an upgrade from XP.

Boot Disk / System Recovery Failure

Mar 19, 2009

I run vista 32 bit. I'm pretty sure it's Vista personal (PC didn't actually come with a Vista disk). I only use it for music and games,basic stuff. It's a Compaq....It shat itself recently, it wouldn't boot, so i borrowed the Vista Business disk from my dad to repair it/disk boot, and it worked fine, that was a couple days ago. Today it happened again, except it won't repair the same way. I start it up, it goes to the Compaq startup screen with 4 options; [Esc] Boot menu, [F9] Diagnostics, [F10] Setup, [F11] System recovery. Except I can never go to the diagnostics or system recovery menus, i press the keys and nothing happens. Then when i don't press anything it goes to a black screen with "Disk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter", so i do. Then it says "Windows is loading files" with a white bar below, once that's done it goes to the Microsoft Coporation green load bar that scrolls across over and over. Then it suddenly stops for a few minutes and a blue screen appears saying

"A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps: Check to see if any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need. If problems continue disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to disable or remove coponents, restart your computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options, then select safe mode. (pressing F8 does nothing for me) TECHNICAL INFORMATION *** STOP: 0x000000D1 (0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x87995395) *** nvstor.sys - Adress 87995395 base at 87991000, Datestamp 46671a61".....

"boot Disk" Or Recovery Disk

Jul 29, 2009

When I had XP, I had a startup problem so I rebooted with a Windows XP CD that came with the computer. It fixed it.

I'm not sure if this is called a boot or recovery disk, or both.

I was hoping to make a similar disk for my new Vista (Gateway)computer but I'm not sure how to do it. I read something about an emergency thing that takes up 3 DVDs!

Creating Recovery Disk Work On SATA Drives?

Mar 5, 2009

I am trying to create a recovery disk set that will allow me to image and restore my hard drive, however my last attempt using BARTPE and Driveimaxe xml failed. I was able to backup my hard disk but when i went to restore my partition, I got a bsod. I also tried Acronis home 11 recovery media and it seemed to stall half way through the restore process, backup process wass the same as before. The only way to restore my disk parition is to remove my drive and conect it to an external USB caddy and no problems occur other than it is a little slow and time consuming.
