Creating 2nd recovery disk set HP Pavilion dv6-1315tx
I have just recently got a HP Pavilion dv6-1315tx computer second hand. It comes with Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed. The first thing I wanted to do was to create a recovery disk,but it seems as if the previous owner has already created a set. I am from Sri Lanka so I cannot order a Recovery Kit from HP. Their support page is confusing.
After doing a lot of research, I deleted files such as hpdrcu.dat
from the recovery partition as well as another location. I also searched for Rebecca.dat
but to no avail on my whole system, but still it gives the same error.
I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me a method to create a new set of disks.
It worked for me by deleting 2 files. No need to reboot:
- D:\hpdrcu.prc
- C:\ProgramData\Hewlett-Packard\Recovery\hpdrcu.prc
Unfortunately, You can create only one set of Recovery Discs as mentioned here http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=bph07143
But You can ask your previous owner for Recovery Discs and clone them.
