  • Satellite P200 - 17 c - I want that back factory settings

    Things have been fine with my p200 until recently when vista went a little weird after the hard disk is nearly full. Now I want to go back to its original state. However, I can't find or remember to have a vista disk. My friend suggested is perhaps already on my drive hard, but I can't. As you can see I'm pretty useless with computers, so I throw myself at your mercy.
    Help, please

    If this model of laptop comes with the recovery image on the HARD drive, you can find it on the second partition in the file called HDDRecovery. I don't know what is happening with the second partition, but you can try to follow:
    -start your laptop and press F8 to display the advanced startup options
    -Enter repair my computer option is available
    -When you enter repair Vista if console control Toshiba Recovery option is available

    If you will not be able to enter these options or if this Toshiba Recovery option is not available there is nothing you can do, except to order the new recovery media.
    You can do so under the https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    Bye and good luck!

  • How to restore the computer to factory settings?

    I want to restore my computer back factory settings im tp do not know how to do that please inform me on what I do you solved the problem

    Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Satellite A300-15 has back to factory settings

    Hello!

    I have an old Satellite A300-15 and I want to go back to factory settings after almost seven years of never format the hard drive.

    I did a little research on this 'how... "but I still don't know if the laptop comes with a windows recovery or not.

    I have another laptop with a score of "windows recovery", but in my toshiba, the only thing I see is a recovery of HARD drive file in my E: partition. I don't really know if that helps the reinstallation of windows.

    So if I reset the laptop with the method 'laptop computer Tower, hold the blah blah 0 button"it completely format my C: and need to reinstall windows or not?

    (Running Windows Vista)

    How it works with the recovery image installation, you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

    Start your laptop with F8 and choose the option to repair your computer. Follow the instructions on the screen and you will be able to install the original recovery image.

    Installation of recovery described called the installation of HARD drive recovery. With other words, saved on the HARD disk in the folder HDDRecovery recovery image will be reinstalled on the C partition only and the second partition of HARD drive will not be deleted or formatted.

    In my opinion, that you create the recovery using disc (DVD) preinstalled creator Toshiba recovery disc. You can use created bootable disks to install original Vista. When you use discs, the whole HARD disk will be deleted, formatted, new partitions created and installed Vista end.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • Satellite U500 - 10L - how to bring it back to factory settings?

    That if I don't have any of my Satellite U500 - 10L recovery disk and I need to format this laptop and bring it back to the factory settings and Windows? It is true that it is inside the laptop?
    Previously I formatted and installed windows 7, in this case is the recovery has been removed from this laptop!

    Thanks :)

    Hey Buddy,

    I think you didn't read the manual right? ;)

    Recovery procedure is very easy and you have two options: HDD recovery or recovery disk.

    HARD drive recovery can be used with the version preinstalled Windows only so if you have installed another version of Windows this option isn't available anymore. The exact procedure is described in the user manual, you need to enter the advanced Windows (key F8) boot menu and choose fix my computer. You will see a new window where you can choose the HARD drive recovery.

    The Toshiba recovery disc yourself using the preinstalled Media Creator Toshiba recovery must be created. That's why you have some blank DVDs and the tool will automatically create the discs. This disk can still be used to restore the original settings, independent what OS is installed, as well as on the new hard drives. If it still works because the HARD disk will be cleaned completely before installation.

    Now it s also too late for disk recovery, but you can order a copy here:
