I used the dd command in linux to clone the corrupted hard drive (1TB) onto a 3TB blank hard drive. I got input/output error and the dd command stopped. I am now running the dd command again with conv=noerror,sync option to fully clone the drive.
Does this mean that I won't be able to ever...
Do I need to close the entire hard drive or can I get away with cloning only the Windows partition? IS there a way to backup the cloned image to a network drive instead of buying a external drive to save the close image to?
How can I do this? Do I just clone the Windows partition or the entire hard drive? I am guessing this would require me to have another hard drive the same size or larger?
Thanks majulook
The commands you specified me to run in Linux are to test which blocks are bad on a specific partition. However, it is possible at all to FIX the blocks WITHOUT losing the data. I was able to backup on my data however, few folders within /Users/myusername/Desktop were corrupted...
I am unable able to load into Windows 8. The automatic repair and chkdsk is taking 3 days and still hasn't fixed the issues.
I used Ubuntu live USB to backup all the data on my hard drive, however some files failed to be backed up. I did a SMART disk check in Ubuntu and it reported that my...
Damn. I didn't have a 16GB USB to creative a recovery media. I formatted the the Windows8_OS partition (Partition 5), and did a fresh install. The label "Windows8_OS" also disappeared after formatting.
What can I do now? I did a fresh install, should I make the fresh install with manually...

I am curious which image is used when I do a Windows 8 reset. I did a reset and it loaded the same Lenovo drivers and software. Thus is it loading the image from the...
Based on the following referesnce, it seems if I do a a format/fresh install of the Partition 5 (Windows8_OS 888.4GB), then I shouldn't have any issues. It is my understanding the Lenovo OneKey method will work even after that...
I see seven partitions, I am unsure what each of them. Which partition am I suppose to format and install a fresh copy of Windows 8 on.

3) LRS_ESP 1000MB (OEM Reserved)

When reinstalling Windows 8.1 with a USB, how do I ensure I don't destroy the OneKey partition. I want to ensure I don't damage it in case I have to use it in the future.
Also after doing a fresh install of Windows 8.1, can I install my own programs and drivers and then setup Windows 8 such...
I have a Lenovo Edge 15 on Windows 8.1
The new laptop came with preinstalled software and drivers. However I prefer to do a fresh Windows 8.1 install without the Lenvo drivers/software. After doing fresh install, I prefer to go to Lenvo's support site and download and install the drivers...
I have a Toshiba Satellite Radius laptop. I wanted to reset it to default factory settings so its back to how I bought it.
After turning on the laptop, I pressed the 0 key, and it took me to Windows 8 recovery screen. I clicked on reset, and I said to erase all files.
The resetting process...
It seems none of the third party softwares are causing the issue. I disabled all and restarted explorer with fixed my explorer lag/delay issue. None of the software caused the issue again when enabling them one by one.
I restarted the computer, and noticed the explorer lag/delay issue again...
