Hi,

While installing another OS, i did some mistakes and delete the partitions.
Now the disk have no more partition and it is formatted.

My question is: Is there a way to restore my windows 8 using a recover disk which I created just after a received this new laptop?


Thank you.

Yes.

Why did you start deleting partitions?


For better help with problems, Can you post your specs.

Filling out System Specs - Windows 7 Forums

just filled the specs.
Regarding partition deletion its a long story.
Is there way to recover?

I take that one of the partitions you deleted was the ASUS Recovery Partition?

How did you make Recovery image?
You should have a Bootable Recovery disk, use this to boot the PC up, & Restore the image.

thank you.
Yes I have a recovery bootable disk, and i even tried it before with success.
Now when i boot with the disk and try to recover, I got the message: a required partition is missing

How did you make Recovery image?


This is for Windows imaging.

Boot the Bootable Repair CD/USB disk from the uEFI DVD/USB drive

Thanks.
I created the recovery disk usinf win8 recovery tool.
I think this is different to recovery image. From the menu I choose the recover instead of using the advanced options.
And like i said before, I had tested it before.
Do you know what are the requirements for that recovery?

Where did you download from?

I didn't download it, it is built-in windows tool, and I am having the same interface as the one in the link you have sent

Is this it.



This looks to be for OEM's only.
Check in your manual.

Yes I have OEM version and used the same procedure and ticked the check box to copy the content.

I am not OEM, so can not look.

I take it as the same as those two tutorials working together.
