ASR backup on laptop Satellite series

Since the machine has no internal floppy drive, I used a USB FDD to ASR backup. The main backup is located on a USB HDD and the recovery disc has been created in the USB FDD.

When you try to use the ASR utility to restore the system to a new HARD disk, it fails with the message "Could not find a floppy drive on the system" even though the player is clearly the machine starts. There are many references to this issue on the Microsoft support, but none of them specific enough to help.

Toshiba have a solution or is it impossible to use the ASR backup on the series of satellites which have no internal floppy drive?

Hello

usually the reader must be recognized as a normal floppy drive, but I Don t know how the backup utility handles this thing.

Can you please post the links to microsoft articles? Maybe I can try to find a solution.
By chance, a small question: have you tried to put the data on a USB stick and start him? It might be an idea to make an image of the disc on another computer, and put it on a USB key.
Maybe it works?

Keep me informed of your success.

Good bye

  • Unable to start my laptop Satellite Pro - orange flashing

    I can't boot my laptop Satellite Pro.
    I have an orange light flashes. I tried to remove the battery and hold the power button, but it did not work...

    Help

    I agree with Liam.
    The indicator flashes as a serious hardware problem was detected.
    What you could do is remove the RAM modules and test the device with the new test modules but I guess that is not RAM problem but something wrong with the motherboard.

    You can use the Port Replicator Port USB 2. This unit works on a USB Port of your computer and gives you a lot of other interfaces, such as 4 x USB, Printer Port, Serial Port, PS/2 for mouse and keyboard

  • Built in camera Chicony USB no longer works on laptop Satellite A200

    All of a sudden, the built-in in my laptop Satellite A200 Chicony USB webcam has stopped working - it was going very well about 6 weeks ago, but now it's as if he has actually disappeared from the laptop. The camera does not even on devices such as equipment manager - there is no single category of imaging devices (unless I am also connected to our printer/scanner). It is also not displayed in 'scanners and cameras' folder in the control panel. But the software (Toshiba Camera Assistant software) is still there. Weird.

    When I start the computer first, or at other times try to start the camera, an error message appears that says:
    * "webcam driver open fail. Restart the computer or the camera. "

    Before you tell me to download and reinstall the drivers, let me tell you what I "ve tried so far:"
    1 restart the computer (obviously)
    2 downloaded the driver for my model on this site and variously has tried to repair, replace and finally uninstalled and reinstalled the. IT IS NOT THE DRIVER!
    3 unplugged my wireless USB mouse and restart the computer (I read on another thread that it sometimes interferes with the camera)
    4 tried to get the computer looking for new hardware - he couldn't find it.
    5 tried a system restore, where it was linked to a recent update - I tried this using three different restore points system, and none of them could not be completed.

    Help! necessary technical assistance
    Thank you

    All that you have done is just.

    In all this history it's strange this webcam is not listed in Device Manager.
    In my opinion, you should do a final test to check the operation of the equipment, if you want to install the OS by using recovery DVDs.

    With own factory and OS preinstalled settings, you can check the operation of the equipment and see if the cam will work or not.
    If the problem will be the same I'm almost sure it's related to the faulty webcam.

  • New laptop Satellite C50-A-1CK Fan make a static/crackling sound?

    I recently introduced a new laptop Satellite C50-A-1CK the December 8,.

    I didn't use the phone a lot.
    I noticed in the last days the fan made a static/crackling sound power, seems to come from the fan (on the upper right corner) when it turns.

    Is this normal?
    I think back to the retailer and asking for Exchange?

    Just for looking for some advice, much appreciated!

    Thank you.

    > Is this normal?

    No, this isn't a common behavior of laptop and I don t think that the sound or noise is normal.

    > I think back to the retailer and asking for Exchange?

    In my opinion it s certainly a good idea to check another unit and compare appearances of noise

  • The battery charge falls even when it is plugged into the satellite series

    I have a laptop satellite and although it recognizes the power adapter when it is connected and that the icon in the taskbar shows "load", the percentage of the battery charge seems down.

    It is only while the laptop is turned on, because it does not charge the battery when it is turned off.
    I didn't know that he used the power of the battery so that hip, so I'm puzzled by this not only why the battery doesn't seem to be in charge, but also why the battery seems to fall once the laptop doesn't have to use it anyway.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hello

    I saw this problem on my own laptop in the past. even if the laptop is charging, the battery seems to fall in charge.

    This indicates that the battery life is coming to an end, there are a limited number of cycles of load for a battery before it dies.
    Also when you have the computer is off fresh is always lost at a considerable pace, because the battery is good, "die."

    You can't do anything on this issue except to buy a new replacement battery for your laptop computer to a repair center authorized Toshiba. This should answer your question.

    Hello sorbet

    I found the information that your laptop can handle with 512 MB max. I guess that your device already has 256 MB. You can use the second 256 MB module and put it in a second slot.

    Part number for the module memory of 256 MB is PA3127U - 1. 25 M.
