As far as I know Toshiba book with picture Windows CD Toshiba Recovery CD and not completely. In this case the image is activated and you DON T need the activation keys.

  • The Satellite A100 created recovery, but DVD does not start

    I'm trying to reload a Satellite A100 with the DVD that was created when I started the laptop when he bought the news of recovery 11 months ago.

    I changed the boot order so that the DVD is first and when you restart, the drive runs at high speed, so it works

    No option is presented to be able to boot from this drive (as the usual "press a key to reboot from DVD")

    If I press F8 when booting I get a list of the options-led FIX YOUR COMPUTER that is highlighted.
    I then press ENTER and get a message "Windows is loading files".
    The system recovery options are then displayed, keyboard, layout, then the opening of the session, what I do using an administrator account.
    I am then presented with a screen with 6 system recovery options
    -Startup Repair
    -System restore - restore to an earlier point in time
    -Restoration of Windows complete PC (from backup)
    -Windows memory diagnostic
    -Command Promt
    -Restoriing the full Windows operating system

    There are 2 buttons {color: #000000} * low _S_hut * {color} and * _R_estart *.

    When I select the last option all I get is another screen with the message
    The complete oprtating of Windows System Restore *.

    If the pre-installed files are damaged you can use the product Recvoery DVD - Rom to restore (which is what I'm trying to do)
    A caveat against the loss of data is also included and then the OK button which, when clicked on resturns me to the previous screen without action
    If I select shutdown or restart it's there for that and boots from the hard drive.
    The disc is not damaged, I can copy him on system, then one more

    Can someone tell me how to start and recover from this drive?

    Hello

    Sorry, but you have misunderstood something. I'll try to be clear now:

    -Via recovery CD/DVD, you CAN NOT repair already preinstalled the operating system. Using Recovery CD/DVDs, you can make clean OS install only. Please note that, prior to installation, the procedure begins old BONE is removed.
    -Reading your ad, I think that you try to use Microsoft Vista of origin and not the recovery image options because when you start the recovery procedure is no different 6 menus

    Can you please tell me what is the problem with your Satellite A100? What are the files that you are trying to fix? What happens at the start of your laptop?

    The disc that I use is labeled as a Windows Vista reinstall disk and provided with the computer when I bought it.  I'm not trying to use it on another computer.

    Reference Dell it is a problem with a process of recovery of Windows and, therefore, a problem of Microsoft.

    Problems with the Dell restore process, contact Dell.
    Dell wrote their recovery process and provided you with this DVD, NOT Microsoft...

    It is their software.

    Ask them for a different recovery DVDs.

    You say that the hard drive has failed.

    He could have more than just tough that failed.
    You can have other hardware issues.

  • Envy: No 1 year and win 10 messed up now what?

    Bought a new laptop HP Envy, in November 2014, with Windows 7 Pro to this topic by the HP store online.  The product name and number: GOT55AV of laptop HP ENVY 15

    Two days ago, I finally decided click on free pop for Windows 10.  That's when the trouble started.  In the end, when you press the power button, the laptop would up being the beginning and then go in close and then go start and then again to stop the cycle was endless.

    This afternoon I took in the Microsoft store in the local mall.  They couldn't fix it, so after an hour, they restored it on Windows 7.  We all thought that it worked.  They did a reboot, it was fine.  So we SHUT IT DOWN and I drove home.  After tending to various things I took it out and pressed the power button and... He starts the start up and then goes into farm will start and then stop...

    I can remove the battery while it is the bike, then replace the battery and the screem comes up saying that the closure was not complete, so I can get into safe mode with network - which is what I use for this type.

    So now, what should I do?  Very close to the end of my first year of ownership.  Not sure, might be 17 Nov.

    The guy in the store of Microsoft said that they can consider for a week to 10 days and put in market.  Or I could take it on Best Buy Geek Squad, they want $150 and 4 days to turn it on.  The guys at Microsoft have no training other than Microsoft.  I had kept the plastic on the touchpad while; a guy it off, he said that was causing the startup problem.  Uh, no.  Geek Squad, I remember well, they must have a degree of 2 years in computer science / tech to get hired there.

    I have tons of pictures and files on here, I know that I have to back all this before I let anyone to run on.

    Please make some suggestions, things that I have to think, ideas and I thank you.

    Did you call HP Support to inquire fixing under the 1 year warranty service? 800-474-6836.

    If you have an external hard drive usb you can try to boot into Recovery Manager and use it to backup files. It is not my favorite backup but emergency method, it is useful. (do not complete the recovery of the system unless you are sure that the files are backed up abort, just straight up)

    BTW - I'd trust the guys from Microsoft store more technicians of BB.

  • Qosmio G20: Questions on MCE Recovery CD/DVD

    A few months back, I bought this laptop Qosmio G20. It s cool. I live in Asia where media center edition is not launched with this series. I have a Windows XP home edition with this laptop. Can someone tell me if it is possible for me to format this OS and install MCE on this laptop? And where I could get a recovery cd/dvd edition of Media Center? What is the procedure to install Media Center Edition of restore cd if I get a? And someone wants to share their media center edition cd recovery with me would be great.

    pls contact me on this email address [email protected]

    Thank you very much (:)

    Hello Anand

    AFAIK only devices with tuner TV have installed MCE and you can get the MCE OS recovery CD if you bought it with the Toshiba unit. If your laptop comes with Windows XP Home you can only get this form of recovery CD service partner. However, you can use the original cd of Microsoft Windows MCE. Then you can try to download all of the necessary drivers from the Toshiba site.

  • Equium L40 - Internet only in safe mode - is not recovery CD/DVDs

    Hello

    It's my last chance I'm getting quite desperate.

    I just moved back to the Spain of the United Kingdom, and it seems that I lost the recovery/backup DVD/CD that is supposed to come with the laptop. Something happened about 2 weeks ago, (viruses? trojan?) and I can't access the internet (any browser, explorer, opera, firefox...) in normal mode, in safe mode (I cleaned up the cell with several anti-virus, anti-adware and antitrojans, issues have been found, but the problem persists).

    Can you help me please?

    Thank you

    alexmac859,
    The first thing is to ensure that you have tried all the steps in this post: XP without boot troubleshooting.  The next thing is what is the error message on blue screen?  Who can help us solve the problem.

    If you can boot into Safe Mode with command prompt, or if you have a XP CD and you can boot into the Recovery Console, and then run the following commands.

    Chkdsk /r

    sfc/scannow (you will need an XP CD for this command)

  • How to copy the recovery on DVD partition in windows 8?

    Hi, recently I put asus s series laptop with windows 8 installed inside, I don't have a recovery with the laptop instead of this CD, they provided a recovery hard disk partition... and my question is If there is a way to copy this partition recovery for DVD and use it to restore the system at the time of the break... Please help me

    I use ATI regularly for imaging, but I have not tried what you're asking. My guess is that you can use the DVD at any time to restore the drive to the first day (factory condition). But unless you had a failure, either with the operating system or the hard drive, why would restore you the first day? I don't think that someone wakes up in the morning and say: ' Hey, I think I'll put my PC in the way it was the day I bought it, just for fun. ":-)

    I'm only theorizing here, but I would say that in the event of failure, put you in the ATI boot CD, use it to restore the recovery Partition from the DVD to the hard drive (which means probably wipe the disc in the process), reboot to the hard disk, then press what touches 'F' it to begin the action for recovery. Then it would be like a new laptop again.

    Or maybe, with the recovery being bootable DVDs, you would just restore the hard drive directly to him. I don't really know for you; the recovery DVDs only I knew were like that (pick up directly from the DVD), but they were created with a program on the PC/laptop purchase. If you have a spare autour hard drive, you can always test the process to see if it works if you will not have to wait until there is a catastrophic failure, and then find out it doesn't work.

  • Dell Inspiron 5520 - replaced Hardrive now what?

    Hello and thank you in advance for taking the time to read and reply to this message. My hard drive recently failed on my Dell Inspiron 5520 (Windows 7), and I replaced it with the HDD of 80 GB of my old Dell Inspiron E1505 for cleaning. Question is, now what? I have a few options:

    (1) I have a laptop HP with Windows 7. I can somehow create a disk usb (or cd) to reinstall windows 7 on my Dell 5520?

    (2) if not, then download the appropriate Dell recovery media and put it on a Usb key? (or CD)

    (3) otherwise, then I should order from Dell recovery media CD? Is this my only option?

    Thank you for your help, much appreciated!

    2 No.

    3. Yes - you will need to call Dell to buy the support of recovering your system - it will cost about $25 in the United States.
