I tried numerous times to download and install the Recovery OS (with SupportAssist and standalone)  from the Dell support site. Kept crashing. Wasted 3/4 of the day yesterday. I again tried another couple of times today and then gave up. I then used the Microsoft MediaCreationTool to create a flash drive with the complete Windows 10 from Microsoft and used that to install. Everything worked the first time! I then installed Support Assist and used it to scan, download and install the relevant drivers.
Hi, The 2.5" 1TB Seagate ST1000LM035 drive that came with my Dell Inspiron 5570 died. So I bought a replacement Crucial MX500 1TB drive and fitted it into the computer. It is visible in the bios. I then used the Service Tag to download the recovery tool and used it to create the recovery image on a USB flash drive and after rebooting the laptop and entering using the F12 key, I booted from the USB Flash. I tried to 'Reset' the image which seemed to work. The problem is that at the end, the computer reboots, and then I get the error below. I'm quite confused as to what to do. Is the problem due to the fact that the recovery image is expecting the Seagate drive? I dont have any installation media to factory install WIndows 10. How to fix the problem please? Thanks, iq       Recovery Your PC/Device needs to be repaired A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed. Error Code: 0xc000000f  You'll need to use the recovery tools.
