Windows Xp Recovery Disk Torrent

I wish you always got an OS Installation disk but that's not the case anymore. I've bought hardware and been given a restore disk, or even instructions on how to burn my own disk with their software...

I depends - I have a Lenovo L512 laptop and needed to replace the hard disk in a Lenovo W500 at work but could not find its original installation CDs. I reinstalled Windows 7 using my L512-branded recovery disk without any problems.
However, in addition, as a system builder, you are only allowed to use the media shipped with the licence, whilst I do not know anyone who has been sued/fined, it is a grey area. (Technically, MS are no worse off from you doing this).
The big companies are typically BIOS locked, so you can (typically) use any Lenovo disk with any Lenovo laptop and just skip over activation. If the disk is from another manufacturer, you can try using it, it will most likely fail automatic activation, and you have a small chance that it will work by typing the code manually (sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't), the only downside is the machine may be "branded" if there are OEM customisations on the setup disk.
Went to create a recovery USB drive on windows 11. After a while I was prompted to insert a USB drive of at least 32GB which I duly did but the "next" button stayed greyed out. After checking my USB drive I can see that there is actually only 28.8Gb available. Just to be sure I formatted it again and it stayed at 28.8GB. I checked a few other USB sticks I had lying around and they all seem to have capacity less than advertised (16GB is actually 14.7 etc).
I may have missed something else but the (real) capacity of 28.8GB seems to be what is stopping me from proceeding. I am sure that the good people of Microsoft know about USB drive capacities. Did they really mean us to get 64GB USB sticks to create recovery drives?
It appears that the issue you're encountering is a common one related to the way storage devices are marketed versus how operating systems calculate storage space.
Manufacturers often advertise storage capacity based on the assumption that 1GB equals 1 billion bytes. However, operating systems like Windows calculate 1GB as 1,073,741,824 bytes (1024^3 bytes), resulting in a lower displayed capacity.
For creating a Windows 11 recovery drive, a USB drive with a minimum capacity of 32GB is required. If your 32GB USB drive is showing only 28.8GB of available space, it may not be recognized by the recovery tool.
Here are some suggestions:
2. Use Disk Management or DiskPart: These built-in Windows tools can help delete all partitions on the USB drive and create a new single partition that utilizes the full capacity.
If your device encounters severe issues, such as an inability to access the operating system, you can utilize a recovery drive to access the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE). It assists in the restoration of Windows or the execution of system restore points. To use a recovery drive, you must first prepare an empty USB flash drive (with a minimum of 16GB of space) to create a Windows recovery drive. As Windows undergoes periodic updates to enhance security and device performance, it is recommended to periodically create a new recovery drive.
Note: When restoring the device via a recovery drive, the original disk partition data on the system drive may be deleted. (If your device supports MyASUS in WinRE or ASUS Recovery, functionalities built into the disk partitions on the system drive will be removed.) If you wish to preserve these functionalities, you can restore the device through a system image, thereby backing up the data in the disk partitions. Learn more about How to create and use Windows System Image to restore your device.
If you experience the device cannot boot, you can use the recovery drive to enter Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE), and then restore from a system restore point or reinstall Windows via the recovery drive.
I just dealt with this today. If you bought your Dell at a retailer like Best Buy (I did), the Service Tags are already registered...to Best Buy! You have to request a transfer of ownership to you, which is just silly. Can yuo imagine if you had to do this for all of your purchases? All of my bread would be registered to Safeway unless I requested ownership of each slice.
Anyway, once you request ownership from the store you purchased your computer at, you should be able to request the disks. Catch: That's handled by the warranty department, which is not open 24 hours. I have to wait until tomorrow to see if this works or not--this after being transferred 3 times during my call and having to convince my service rep that yes, I did actually have a writable DVD drive in my machine. >:
No kidding. There's no need to transfer ownership for the registered owner though. When the Service Tag is put into the media request form, it defaults back to the "Retail Tag Detected" and asks to transfer ownership... I ALREADY own it and I've ALREADY registered it, I just need an install CD because my hard drive died.
Hmmm. So this is an actual problem other people are having? I just posted my own issue with this request form. I didn't realize this might be a bug until I did a google search for the phrase "Retail Tag detected. Please click here to proceed towards Registration."
The media request page tells me to register, but I'm already registered. When I try to register (again) it says my PC is already registered (no kidding?). And then that's it. Dead end. Here, I'll illustrate with screencaps.
... a gigantic dead end/wild goose chase. Again, this is a newly purchased PC. I completed registration for the first time several days ago. I'm obviously in the system, it just refuses to submit my request for backup media. I'm almost to the point where I've wasted enough time on this (trying to do things the proper way) and now feel like just torrenting an .iso and saying "screw it".
I have an older PC that's out of warranty - I used that initial link, and due to my PC being out of warranty, it gave me a 1-800 number (1-800-822-6031). That's for out-of-warranty dell support, but perhaps if you call that number and ask for the number for in-warranty customer support, they could give it to you. I know it's a tedious work-around, but if no one else here helps you, perhaps it will help.
Once I called that 1-800 number I was able to get a re-installation disk and drivers & utilities disk sent to me FedEx at no charge. They give a one-time shipment at no chrg, then if you lose it you have to pay. Don't know if it's any different for in-warranty PCs, but you should be owed a re-install & drivers& utilities kit for free. Make sure they also send you the drivers & utilities disk along with the OS reinstall disk, as they didn't for me and I had to make them send it again (they sent me only the OS disk for free, then sent me ANOTHER OS disk PLUS the drivers & utilities disk for free again, because they messed up the first time, lol).
You'd think that the exchange would be pretty simple. Get on the chat, tell them you want the OS disc, and they send it to you. Nah. That's too easy. You have to jump through all kinds of hoops with them, they attempt to dissuade you from requesting the disc, and then they ask all sorts of additional, non-essential information. Finally, you cross your fingers that they actually sent what you asked for.
I've gotten several follow-up emails from the chat rep and none of them specifically state that they'll be sending me the back-up/recovery OS and drivers disc. It's all a bunch of non-descript mumbo jumbo about a "service kit" or something.
Dell no longer allows you to order recovery disks they must be made by the user. There is no other way to get a recovery disk. Almost every link at the dell site that says click here to order recovery disk yields a page not found error.
Users in the (US, Canada and UK only) can request a set of backup discs containing the factory-installed operating system as well as the Resource DVD which contains device drivers and utilities specific to the system. This option is only available if your warranty is still in force. You can request a warranty extension for systems made within the last 3 years.
To proceed with requesting these backup discs, continue to the Request Backup Discs form, fill out all the requested information and click Submit. Note that this form is available For (US, Canada and UK only)
So my neice called me a few days ago and asked if I could stop over and chek her computer out. When trying to start the pc she was getting a no bootable device found. After doing the usual troubleshooting and a few unusual ones, I concluded the drive is dead. The PC is past warrenty so I ahve ordered a new hard drive for her but there is still one small problem. She has no backup disks. She doesn't think it came with any disks and with a dead drive, the recovery partition is out of reach. Does HP have any options to help her out in a situation like this such as downloading or ordering the original set up files?
Another thing she is concerned about is her personal files. Pictures, saved games, other documents. Does anyone have any crazy tricks for recovering files from a dead disk? I pulled it from the PC and installed it in an external enclosure and tried a couple different pc's with Windows and 1 with Linux and nothing.
HP does not provide downloadable recovery media. If the hard disk crashed, recovery solutions are usually quite specialized and expensive. The cost of professional recovery would exceed the value of her notebook from even when it was a new product in the box.
If the twenty-five character license key for the operating system is still visible on the Microsoft certificate of authenticity, you may be able to use a downloadable ISO from Microsoft to reinstall Windows 7. Use the following Microsoft link.
