Hiren CD 2 Bootable USB

You probably have a messed up partition table. You can download the hiren boot cd and use the linux rescue environment. Once loaded use Gparted to create a new partition table and format the drive. If that doesn't work there is a low level format tool under the first menu on the hiren disc

You need to copy the Hirens boot CD files on an uncompressed USB memory stick.

You can remove or change the Window's User or administrator's password. You need access to a computer with Internet access to download the Hiren's Boot CD and burn it onto a CD. Then insert this CD into the laptop/computer and boot up the laptop/computer with the Hiren's CD and follow the instructions. There are very useful utilities CD and it a Linux boot CD which contains quite a lot of Utility programs including a password removal program.

Go to the BIOS settings and then Boot (start up) order and make the USB device the first boot device and the hard disk the second boot device.
If the USB is not listed then your laptop cannot boot up from an USB memory stick.
To make a Hirens USB boot memory stick copy the Hirens files onto the USB memory stick. Then you can boot up Hirens with the USB memory stick.

Is this BIOS password or Windows Password?

BIOS Password can be cleared by CMOS reset, but you would have to crack it open to get to CMOS battery.
Link below is a tutorial for Bios
Top 3 methods to crack bios password! http://www.blog.windowspasswordsrecovery.com/top-3-methods-to-crack-bios-password/

Windows Password can be force changed with a bootable USB thumb drive with a Windows Password Recovery Tool using a Linux Distro. I am guessing you dont have a CD or DVD drive, so you will have to create a bootable USB drive with the password reset tool. OR reinstall Windows via External CD or DVD Drive and software or create a bootable thumb drive of say 8GB in size with the OEM disk copied to that drive if it allows with piracy protection maybe not allowing OEM CD or DVD to be copied to another drive.

for usb drive with capacity above 4 GB , the most common problem is lost partition, for geeting the patition again you should create it manually with partition tools software like, acronis , magic partition or etc, that support to read usb partition. you could find it all within hiren's boot cd if you had one.

If your notebook came with a Windows installation disk, you can fix the issue this way:

1. Insert the installation disk into your CD/DVD drive, and boot up your computer.

2. At the Welcome screen, hit the R key on your keyboard. This will launch Recovery mode.
You should now see a DOS prompt on your screen.

3. Type chkdsk /p and hit Enter. This will launch a utility that scans for hard drive errors.
The process may take some time, so be patient and allow it to do its job.

4. After the chkdsk is done, type fixboot and hit Enter to repair any damaged boot files which may have become corrupted. When prompted to choose "Yes" or "No," type Y for "Yes."

5. Type exit and press the Enter key to reboot your computer.

Assuming chkdsk was successful in fixing the disk errors, you should now be able to boot back into Windows.


If you do not have a Windows installation disk, but have access to another computer with a CD/DVD writer, you can download Hiren's Boot CD to help fix your corrupted boot drive.

1) Download the Hiren's disk image, and follow these instructions for burning the boot CD.

2) To ensure your system boots from the CD you've created, follow these instructions on how to set your BIOS to boot from CDROM.

3) Alternately, you can download a free utility that will create a bootable USB flash drive containing all of Hiren's tools. The above link also provides step by step instruction on creating a Hiren's USB drive, as well as how to set your BIOS to boot from it.

4) Boot the problematic pc from either your Hiren's CD or Hiren's USB drive.

5) Once you've successfully booted your system using Hirens, you will see a menu with a variety
of tools and utilities. Navigate to the hard disk tools menu, and run HDD Regenerator.

You'll need even more patience this time -- as HDD Regenerator is a bit more comprehensive in its error scanning than chkdsk. On the bright side, HDD Regenerator has a reputation for repairing disk errors that chkdsk was unable to.

Good luck, and I hope this helps!

Check the BIOS, the boot start up configuration to see if there is an option to boot up with a USB device. If not then it is not possible with your laptop because there is no boot USB driver.

You can format your hard disk by booting up with Windows CD installation and follow the steps to delete the partition, then creat a new partition, then format the partition.
