Error during system recovery

[radiant_mind]

hi there

i think i solved this problem and here is the solution

first you must know there is many reasond to get this error

1-dvd's could be scratched

2-dvd rom could be corrupted

3- or you had a problem in your hard disk drive(propably it could be a MBR problem)

by the way MBR means Master Boot Record of the hard disk drive

so

we need to erase or reset the Mbr

follow these steps

1-download and burn hiren's boot cd

2-back up your data if necessary >>>if your windows was totally corrupted you can use mini xp from hiren

3-boot from cd

4-choose dos programs

5-choose mbr tools

6-choose mbr work utility

7-reset EMBR by pressing Num 3 and confirm

8-reset Mbr by pressing Num 4 and confirm you will get a warning that the hard disk will need to re partitioned

9-press E to exit

10-now you can try your clean dvd's to make a recovery process

Best of luck

and i realy made and it works 100%

hope it helps all of you

I can not use printer to print from comp. also in trying to print pictures from sd card said memory card error . I took memory card to  walmart and had no problem.

Unfortunately this means the Operating System has most likely been corrupted and damaged to the point of not being able to do it's job of  BOOTING up.

You got a missing device driver, and there is only one way to fix this problem. You now have to Reformat-meaning to delete everything and start fresh by reinstalling everything from HP Recovery Discs. There is no workaround to this, you gotta buy the disks. ((the Recovery Disk Backups that HP has as an option for you to create NEVER WORK.))

You have to install the SD card. If you need help let me know and I will explain further.

New disk sorted this situation, end of. Desktop only a year old and disk showing serious faults, what a load of carp ! The recovery disks DO work, as shown on my new hard drive. Would be nice if the great HP corporation showed some sign of customer empathy, but NO! i'm afraid its a case of take your money and run. Sh*tbags.

Okay, glad it's working now though!
