I don't have recovery partition

follow this step and do it. God bless you

  • To create a partition from a new or newly formatted computer, make sure Windows is installed. Load any programs and drivers you would like to keep in case you need to back up to a previous version of your computer's settings.

  • 2

    Install your partition creation software; in this article we will use Norton Ghost. Before creating your partition, disable any anti virus and other scanning software.


  • 3

    Create your partition by going to your ms-dos prompt: from your Start menu, press "Run," and type "cmd" without quotations in the run dialog box. At the dos prompt, type "fdisk" without quotations, and choose option 1 (Create DOS partition or Logical DOS Drive). Set the partition size to 10 GB at press enter.

  • 4

    Open Norton Ghost and follow the instructions to create a recovery partition in the new partition you had just created. The process should take anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of the files you are going to back up.

  • 5

    Restart your computer. When done, open Norton Ghost to verify that the Recovery Partition was created.

    How Do I Correct the Error and Recover an Acer Computer hard drive?

    In order to correct the hard drive partitions so the recovery program will work, you can use a variety of tools listed below.

    1) Active@ KillDisk - Use their free killdisk program to wipe the hard drive clean off all partitions.

    2) Ubuntu or another Linux alternative bootdisk. Create a boot disk for the Ubuntu Live CD and boot the computer from it. During the boot process it will ask to "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer". This is the option you want. Once Ubuntu loads, find the partition editor program under the System, Administration menu..

    To delete a partition, right click on the partition that you wish to delete and select "Delete" from the menu. Once you are sure that you've selected the correct partition, and are positive that you have backed up all the files or data that you wish to save from that partition, click the "Apply" button at the top of the Window, and the partition will be deleted.

    3) Use the Acer Hard Drive Format Utility, on some versions of Acer computers when you have the option to create Recovery disks, the system creates a hard drive format utility CD as well. Boot from this CD and format the hard drive.
    The utility will recreate 1 partition (C: drive), after the partition has been created, you'll be able to reload the HDD with the backup media. The file is an ISO image for CD media only (not compatible with floppy diskettes). Create a CD disc from the ISO image file using a CD writer program on another computer.

    Once the hard drive partitions have been deleted by any of the utilities above, you can proceed with rebooting the computer using the Acer System CD and proceeding with the complete recovery of the system.

    Message missing operating system

    This sounds like the main partition on your harddrive was corrupt. You will need to reformat the system.

    Using the Recovery Partition:

    1. Press [F9] during bootup.

    2. Press [Enter] to select Windows Setup [EMS Enabled].

    3. Select the language you want to recover and click


    Next.

    4. Read the ASUS Preload Wizard messages and click


    Next.

    5. Select a partition option and click


    Next. Partition options:

    Recover Windows to first partition only.

    This option deletes only the first partition and allows you to keep other

    partitions, and to create a new system partition as drive "C".

    Recover Windows to entire HD.

    This option deletes all partitions from your hard disk drive and creates
    a new system partition as drive "C".

    Recover Windows to entire HD with two partitionThis option deletes all partitions from your hard drive and creates two
    new partitions "C" (25%) and "D" (75%).
    6. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the recovery
    process.

    Make sure to burn off your recovery DVDs as soon as you get you rsystem back up and running so that you have them in an emergency.

    Lost NTFS partition on my WD1600BEVT, how do you restore so I can use again?

    Depends on what you did to "lose" the partition-table.

    Download the free 'PTEDIT.ZIP' file -- it is a "partition-table editor".
    UNZIP it on a different computer, and extract the 'PTEDIT.EXE' program.
    Run PTEDIT on your computer, and update the partition-table.

    How can I get a recovery disc for a vaio vgn-ar320e laptop

    For a factory reset there are two installation options:
    C:\ drive recovery
    System recovery

    System recovery will rebuild the partition. C drive recovery will simply re install the C drive on the active partition. When you do full system recovery we create a hidden partition that is read only. this gives you the F10 boot-able recovery partition tools.hit f-10 on boot up

    RecoveryDisk Creator does not offer any disk selections to create

    To access the recovery partition you need to boot up on a DVD with a partition manager on it, then set the hidden partition as "ACTIVE" and un-Active, the existing partition, then remove DVD and reboot, then the laptop will boot from the recovery partition and should autorun start the recovery procedure.

    Recovery partitions

    You' want to set aside some space where to create these backups, they are generally 25% of the total drive space.

    the assumption is that there is no data on the drive to save. During the install it will ask where you want to install windows, if there are existing partitions delete them all. Then create one partition and specify it to be 75% of the drive (or whatever you prefer). Leave the rest unpartitioned.

    Select the partition you created to install windows on.

    Once you have installed windows and all the drivers etc, format the rest of the drive in Disk management (part of Computer management in Control Panel). Finally install your favourite software to create backup restore images, and set it to save on the partition you created.

    NOTE: you will still need to back up on some external media, if the drive fails all data will be lost.

    Hope this helps

    How to Create EISA Partition...in Vista Or XP......

    You can't. The partition was created by SONY to hold recovery files because so many people lose their installation disks. So SONY created the partition, loaded the special software on it and put options in the menu to use it.
