hello guys,
I'm having a problem with my PC

IdeaCentre K430 LENOVO
OS:Windows 8 x64 bit

I was trying to restore and start over again ,using the Lenovo recovery but when my PC restart
I recieve this two errors , with a skyblue background says: "Lenovo System Partition was destroyed!"
and when I click OK there's another one popup says: "X:\onekey\main\lrscall.vbs" then I click OK again , the pc restart and again I recieved the errors it keeps doing it over and over again.. But I can access the BIOS pressing F1 and I just also recieved the 6 CD's of LENOVO Recovery Disc that I order to recover this error as they said.

I follow the guide that the user gave me in the lenovo forum he says :
=========================================
You will need to Boot into BIOS
TAP F1 Once you have the Lenovo Screen when powered on.
Some options may not be available in your BIOS version but set the things you were able to find.

Check Exit TAB first
OS Optimization
OS Optimized
For the two options above: Should be set as Disabled or Other OS

Under Boot Tab / Start up Tab
Boot Mode Should be set to Legacy
Boot Priority Should be set to Legacy First
UEFI Boot should be set to Disabled
Quick Boot should be Disabled
StartUp device Menu prompt should be Disabled2
Quick Boot Should be Disabled
USB Boot should be Enabled
Secure boot Should be Disabled

Once all are set press F10 to save and exit

Once the Lenovo LOGO shows, start tapping F12 in your keyboard and a list of Disk drive will show as your boot option, CD/DVD should be there to boot from.



==================================
and I follow all of that

This is my BIOS TABS

Main Devices Advance Power Security StartUp Exit

Starting on Devices :

USB SetUp = Enabled
ATA Drives SetUp (There's 4 options)
->IDE
->AHCI
->RAID
->Disabled

I Set to AHCI
Video SetUp = Auto (There's no Disabled option)
Network SetUp = Disabled



Security TAB

Secure Boot = Disabled



StartUP TAB

> Primary Boot Sequence
( I don't know about this. It's talking about Include and Exclude)


CSM = Enabled
Boot Mode = Auto (There's 3 option in bootmode AUTO , UEFI and LEGACY ONLY If I choose Legacy Only Boot Priotiy will be gone.I already test UEFI and LEGACY.)
Boot Priority = Legacy First (I already did the UEFI)
Quick Boot = Disabled
Boot Num-Lock Status = On
Keyboardless Operation = Enabled
Rapid Boot = Disable

Exit TAB

Save Changes and Exit
Discard Change and Exit

Load Optimal Defaults
OS Optimized Default = Disabled

when I press F10 to save changes and restart and when lenovo logo
show up I really press F12 repeatedly!
nothing happens?
I can't access to boot manager where I can choose what to boot. :(
but I can access boot manager If I disable
ATA Drives SetUp.
But I only see Enter Setup and nothing else.



and Still the error show up
"Lenovo system partition was destroyed!"

and I try it again.
by pressing F12
nothing happens.
and again and again..

what's the problem??
I've search in the entire google
they got thesame problem with me.

Before the Recovery Process


If you are using this recovery disc set to convert your operating system from the Windows 7 operating system to the Windows 8 operating system, or to restore the contents of your hard disk drive to a factory-installed Windows 8 installation (including the Windows 8 operating system, applications, and drivers), you need to perform the following procedure before you start the recovery process.

Before you start the recovery process, do the following:
1.Repeatedly press and release the F1 key when turning on the computer. When you hear multiple beeps or see a logo screen, release the F1 key. The Setup Utility program opens.
2.From the Setup Utility Program main menu, select Exit or Restart, and make sure OS Optimized Defaults is set to Disabled.
3.Do one of the following:
◾If you are using a ThinkPad or Lenovo V, B, K or E series notebook computer, press F9, select Yes in the displayed window to confirm your selection, and then press Enter. Continue with step 4.
◾ If you are using a ThinkCentre, ThinkStation or Lenovo 62 computer, continue with Step 4.

4. Press F10 to save your changes and exit the Setup Utility program.
5.Continue with Performing the recovery process for Windows 8 below.


Performing the recovery process for Windows 8


Notes:
•You must have an internal or external DVD drive to use the recovery discs.
•During the recovery process, all data on the hard disk drive will be deleted. Copy any important data or personal files that you want to keep onto removable media or a network drive before you start the recovery process.

To restore your computer to the original factory configuration using the recovery disc set, do the following:
1.Make the CD/DVD drive the first startup device in the startup sequence using the following procedure: ◾Repeatedly press and release the F1 key when turning on the computer. When you hear multiple beeps or see a logo screen, release the F1 key. The Setup Utility program opens.
◾Use the arrow keys to select Startup. Depending on your computer model, select Primary Boot Sequence, Boot, or Startup Sequence.
◾Select the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device by following the instructions and the help messages on the screen.

2.Insert the Applications and Drivers Recovery Disc labeled Disc 1 into the DVD drive.
3.Press F10 to save the Setup Utility configuration changes. The computer restarts and the recovery program opens. Follow the instructions on the screen to begin the recovery process.
4.Select your language and click Next.
5.Read the license. If you agree to the terms and conditions, select I agree to these terms and conditions and then click Next.
6.Read the messages on the screen and then select GPT partition style or MBR partition style as you desire. Click Next. ◾Note: It is recommended that you select GPT partition style is selected by default. Select MBR partition style only when you intend to use image-cloning tools or third party disk-management tools that require an MBR partition for compatibility purposes.

7.If your computer has multiple internal hard disk drives installed, a window is displayed, asking if you would like to format all the internal hard disk drives. Select one of the following as you desire:
◾Click Yes if you want to delete all data on the hard disk drives.
◾Click No if you want to format the system drive only.

8.Click Yes or Next in the displayed window to continue the recovery process.
9.Insert the Operating System Recovery Disc when prompted and then click Yes or OK to continue the recovery process.
10.If you have a secondary Operating System Recovery Disc, insert it into the DVD drive when prompted and then click Yes or OK to continue the recovery process.
11.Reinsert the Applications and Drivers Recovery Disc labeled Disc 1 when prompted and then click Yes or OK to continue the recovery process.
12.If you have a secondary Applications and Drivers Recovery Disc, insert it into the DVD drive when prompted and then click Yes or OK to continue the recovery process.
13.If you have a Supplemental Recovery Disc, insert it when prompted and click Yes. If you do not have a Supplemental Recovery Disc, click No. ◾Note: Not all recovery disc sets come with a Supplemental Recovery Disc.

14.When all of the data has been copied from the last disc in the set and processed, you will be prompted to restart the computer. Click Yes to restart the computer. ◾Note: The rest of the recovery process is fully automated and no action is required by you. The computer will restart into the Microsoft Windows desktop several times and you might experience periods when no activity is apparent on the screen for several minutes at a time. This is normal.

15.When the recovery process is complete, the Set Up Windows screen is displayed. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the Windows setup.
16.Restart your computer, and repeatedly press and release F1 key to enter the Setup Utility program. From the Setup Utility program main menu, select Exit or Restart, and then do one of the following:
◾If you installed any version of the Windows 8 (32–bit) operating system in MBRmode, select OS Optimized Defaults > Disabled.
◾ If you installed any version of the Windows 8 (64–bit) operating system in GPT mode, select OS Optimized Defaults > Enabled.
•Note: If you are using a ThinkPad or Lenovo V, B, K or E series notebook computer, after you set OS Optimized Defaults to Enabled, press F9, select Yes in the displayed window to confirm your selection, and then press Enter.

◾ If you installed any version of the Windows 8 (64–bit) operating system in MBR mode, select OS Optimized Defaults > Disabled.
Important: ◦If you do not perform this step after installing any version of the Windows 8 (64-bit) operating system in GPT mode, the operating system will run on your computer, but the following features that rely on a native UEFI-mode boot will not work: ◾Secure boot
◾Seamless boot experience
◾Network unlock for BitLocker - This feature is available on computers that have a Trusted Platform Module (TPM).
◾Encrypted Hard Drive (eDrive) support

◦For additional information about these features, go to Microsoft Corporation.

18.Press F10 to save the changes and exit the Setup Utility program.

Note:
•After restoring a hard disk drive to the factory default settings, you might need to reinstall some device drivers.
•If your computer is preinstalled with Windows 7 Professional software and also comes with a license and media for Windows 8 Pro software, you may only use one version of the Windows software at a time. Switching between versions will require you to uninstall one version and install the other version.

Try loading BIOS Optimized Defaults, Save and Exit.

Then try loading the recovery again and following the instructions carefully ( the above instructions look very helpful too).

Personally, I've never had a problem trying to recover my laptop with Lenovo's recovery disc's on both zero wiped (deleted recover partition) and new hard drive's, the default recovery process simply creates the recovery partition again on blank hard drives.

Good luck,
