  • Creating a recovery partition is a two part process. The first process is to create a partition if you do not have an additional Hard Drive to install the system image which is the the second part of this tutorial.

    Thank you so much...so this is something that I could use to restore my pc if it crashed, seeing that I have no Win7 disc to repair it with?
    (a tech put Win7 ultimate on my PC. I have the product key, but no disc.)
    The disc I can create with this method will restore my Win7 OS, and all the files I have presently?

    So I use the "Windows 7 installation CD", I can format my Hardisk “C” and then I can restore my previous image backup "Z".
    1 The image backup includes also all driver (videocard, audio…ex)?
    2 Can the image backup restore all advance setting I did on Outlook or Mozilla Firefox.. ex?
    Thanks a lot for this video

    you do not need the CD, before windows start press F8 to have repair option then you can do it from there

    • @lastorderfan
      @lastorderfan 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If you have a System Recovery Partition already in place (correct me if I am wrong). My laptop came with no windows cd and had been upgraded by the seller to Windows 7 Pro from Vista. The seller erased the partition that allowed restoration to factory condition and never replaced it with a wndows 7 version. F8 will most likely not be sufficient in a worst-case wipe-the-drive scenario. You need the disc or a partition containing a recovery image with windows for that.

    thanks from making useful video, it did really work! nice, well-done!.
    I was trying to make a new partition in my computer hard drive, I got a problem during making new partition Drive C. I've shrink-ed the volume and got unallocated drive, but when creating new sample volume, giving drive letter and so on and finally clicking on " finish" button I got the message < you can not create a new volume in this unallocated space because the disk already contains the maximum number of partitions.

    if i were to do this on a fresh laptop and make a backup/repair disc while it had a recovery partition still installed and some way somehow later on down the road when/if my partition got deleted would i be able to use that disc to get my recovery partitton back? Or would it only install everything but my partition back onto the laptop?

  • @chilito10k
    @chilito10k 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    MrCodaman since you cannot upgrade from 32Bit OS(W7) to a 64bit what you will need to do is to perform a clean install over the same C partition which will erase all data "this will not affect your D partition". Remember to move whatever files/folders you want to keep to your D partition and once the clean install is done all your files will be available from the D partition. A good rule of thumb is to partition the HDD in at least 2 so on C you have the OS and programs and D all your data!!!

    Near the end of the video (at 6:25), you say you'll have your OS the same as before. But what about everything else? What if I reformatted C right before the restore? Would I have all my data, all my settings, and all my installed programs also restored? (Or just the OS restored... as you stated in the video?)

    Most computers allow you to press the F8 button for advanced boot options (like safe-mode). If you see a "repair my computer" at the top you can select this. Then there are options like "system image" that you can use to load your system image and restore from it. Obviously if you don't see the "repair my computer" option when pressing F8, then that is not available

  • @chilito10k
    @chilito10k 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your best bet is to backup your files/folders/pics etc. to an external drive then perform a clean install of the OS on the HDD and as you do it partition the HDD. In 1 partition the OS and in the other your "Recovery Image" and even on a 3rd all your data. I always recommend to partition to keep all important data separate from the OS in case it crashes and need to re install. The only thing, any pre-bundled manufacturer software(crap) will not be present on the "Recovery Partition".

    3. When I create a new system image, do I save it in the same location in the recovery partition - meaning will windows automatically rename/overwrite the previous system image?

    Excellent tutorial. Clear visual and simple instructions. I'm having a problem due to a screw up at Lenovo repair where they changed my motherboard but didn't link my Operating system to the new motherboard so now, Windows is acting like a new install and is asking me for a product key on a laptop I've had Windows 7 installed on for over a year! Anyhow, long story short, I saw in your video that you have that 100mb partition in front of your C driver too. I thought, because I recently partitioned my C drive into C and D that the partition software created that file and that was what is stopping me from using my restore disks (official Windows 7 disks from Lenovo), since I can't reformat because it can't find Bootmgr) The Laptop boots with no problem but the recovery disks can't find Bootmgr??? So, is that 100mb drive supposed to be there and it's something else preventing the restore disks from finding Bootmgr?

      My error is:

      I get this error when I put the Lenovo Windows 7 recovery disks in. It will not go past that screen so I cannot go any further with a reinstall of WIndows on my machine. I think I will have to send it back to Lenovo to fix this issue.
