hard disk partitions after installation of windows 7 for b570e

[samehesk]

i didn't delete anything or do anything, all i did was installing windows 7 ultimate on the machine.

how to check if one key recovery is working or not? without doing restore

i made a backup using it

[yigit]

the recovery partition is already deleted so one key recover won't work.

@sjano

due to there's not enough space to locate the current system backup, one key recover cannot finish the process as the error says. you'll need external hdd to create backup file.

but if you are just trying to create a backup to restore it from your computer, there is no need cause there is a hidden partition that contains factory backup file so you can use when you need it by pressing one key recover button.

hope this helps.

I don't understand. My laptop is a G470 with 500GB of HD space.

I made the OneKey Recovery disks and I resized C:, deleted D: and merge the free space to create an extended partition, inside of it, one partition for Linux and another for my files. I used the OneKey Recovery and it works. The software restored the C: partition (approx. 400GB) and the D: (Lenovo) partition (30GB).

The system is working. But you guys said that OneKey wouldn't work if the hard drive was changed. Can you explain this to me, please?

@ultimatejupiter

Hi! First of all - sorry for my english.

I have problem with my Lenovo G570GL and OKR. Yesterday i made fresh install of windows 8 but in some way that just deleted my OEM partition and now OKR doesnt work. I have backup copy of system on my D: (backup00X and backup.wsi files). Thats the screen of my disc manager: http://imageshack.us/f/96/partycja.jpg/ 

Can some one help me out? I want to repair OKR button and be able to install my backup copy of windows using that button.

if the oem ( hidden partition ) deleted and it's empty, okr won't work. you can try the okr disks if you have otherwise it probably won't work.

by the way, what's the error message you got?

[meliegree]

None.

When laptop is shut down - nothing happen when i press OKR. I think about something like that - on some page user say that is possible to make OKR run from backup copy on another hard drive. It works on his notebook, so i think something like that:

Install another copy of Windows 7 (trail for example). Leave Lenovo partition (backup is there), then make partitions with default size (14,75GB for restore and rest for system), then copy from installed OKR directory files to restore partition, try to put backup there and change flags on hard drive in way he do it. If it works - i shoul be able to instal via OKR button my backup, if not - on windows 7 i should be able to install OKR (windows 8 give me error "driver initialization failed, please reinstal application") and then copy my backup to a DVD and make new install from it. How it sounds?
