  • Cannot complete the recovery process after replacing HARD drive

    Hello

    I changed my hard drive it for 15 days because he showed abnormalities, so I bought a new hard drive Seagate Western brand with the same technical characteristics as the existing hard drive (product for the product).

    I was then on TOSHIBA HDD RECOVERY to burn to CD system recovery disks, then I went to replace the hard drive.

    After the change, I raised my PC with system restore CD.
    The procedure is successfully completed and orders of comments asking me to remove the disk and restart the PC.

    I raise the PC, everything goes well, launch windows, installation of perfect records system then comes the stage of installation and settings of the system here after the error message:

    "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on the hardware in the computer."

    Then it asks me to restart, then it comes back every time on this message, I'm stuck on this step.
    I tried to change the mode of the disc source hard 'compatibility' instead of 'AHCI' but it's even worse, it completely without error buggy.

    Please give me an explanation of this phenomenon.

    Sincerely.

    Guillaume

    Have you tried to repeat the whole recovery procedure?
    If this is not the case, do.

    I recommend to format the whole HARD drive and create an NTFS partition.
    Then start the laptop using the Toshiba Recovery disk and start the recovery procedure.

    I read about the problem of disk HARD similar in the past and especially NFS partition creation has helped to solve these problems.

  • Equium L20 - cannot complete the recovery procedure - disk error

    Hello

    I have a laptop Equium L20 and whats happened is, during a recovery of product, he gets to 25% then emits an error at me and stops working.

    Now when I turn on the laptop, I get the Toshiba screen, then nothing.
    I was informed that my drive is probably broken and I now no operating system but I am a complete computer novice so don't know how it is.

    I took the laptop to PC world a few years ago and they run a recovery of product but I did not my drive, so I want to know is, is it possible to run recovery without the disc?
    (seems to me just don't forget the sound by pressing a few buttons)

    If so, how?
    And if not what someone have any suggestions as to how I can restore the computer?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    > during a recovery of product, sometimes about 25% then emits an error at me and stops working.

    As you mentioned, possibly recovery disk is defective, broken, or similar, this could be the reason why the CD/DVD drive is not able to read the disc and the installation breaks upward.

    You cannot get this phone without the recovery disk! It is an old series laptop and it does not support the HARD drive recovery process, as do other mobile most recent.

    If you have only two ways to install the Windows operating system; you need to use the Toshiba recovery disc (which seems to be broken) or you can install the operating system by using the Microsoft Windows XP disk.

    If install you the operating system using the disk of MS original then you need to install the drivers of Toshiba which are placed on the European driver Toshiba page (look in the archives).

    PS: maybe you could try to burn (copy) the recovery disk using another computer.
    In some cases of the different drives are able to read scratched discs.
    If you want to be successful and if you want to be able to copy the recovery disk, you can then use the new disk in order to restore the operating system on your computer satellite phone.

    What can I do now?

    Hello dgreen1004,

    Like the previous step to reinstall the OS from the recovery partition has failed, the only other option is to try a recovery media. Per your request, I am including information on how to get a recovery media. Please open the link following "Research drives HP recovery or a USB HP recovery disc?".

  • Satellite P10: Need for disk recovery after a HARD disk crash

    I have a Toshiba p10 and the HD broke down. I've had this machine for 2 years, but I bought it 2nd hand, so I have no disks in the system.

    Where can I get a system recovery disk and it is true that the recovery disc can work if I install the HD the same size? The current drive is 30g and I would like to install a disk 40g instead.

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hello

    No, that's not true. You can use a different HARD and the recovery CD disk sizes has nothing to do with the HARD drive compatibility.
    You should only be sure that the laptop and the BIOS will recognize the new HARD drive size, but I think that the 40 GB are supported on this laptop.

    So if you put a new HARD drive in the laptop you have to boot from the CD drive.
    To my knowledge the CD recovery and all devices supported and compatible, you can buy from the Toshiba service partner in your country.

    I found the link on the Toshiba support page, so I recommend you to visit this site.

    Good luck

  • Changed the original after imaging HARD disk but can get Windows 7 valid

    A SONY VIAO bought in 2010 with a 500 GB hard drive. Started to get those bad guys, messages "imminent HARD drive failure" has created an image using Acronys on a new hard drive of 1 t and traded in. Everything went well until I started getting messages "your computer is not running genuine Windows" (rror code 0xc8000247).  Did all the research, including the call the MS Product Activation Center and the robo-man to give the key that came. Robo-man returned and says invalid key, back to the drawing board (buy W7 for $108, backup all data and programs, install and rebuild the contents of the hard drive). SONY said that they would not help me because I had replaced the hard disk provided with the system. Even though it was about to fail, I should put it back in and call to hide...

    So now what should I do?  I have the product key (from the label under the system), the Windows ID of the information system...

    The common cause for these mismatches is a defective Intel Rapid Storage Tech driver

  • Cannot complete the order after the iPhone booking 7 during the pre-order?

    Not sure if this is the appropriate place to ask... but did anyone encounter this problem with their iPhone 7 pre-order?

    After that I tried to place an order for the iPhone 7 more during the pre-order, I received an email from the Apple Store saying that my iPhone had been reserved and provided me with a reservation number. They said that they send an email when they were able to reach the carrier systems so I could place my order. Very quickly after I got a follow-up email confirming the booking number and was told that I could now go ahead and place my order. I have connected to the Apple Store, who acknowledged my reservation number, almost all of the screens orders went through, but when I hit continue to confirm the pricing plan that I had selected, the next screen shows the page of 'the page you are looking for is not found' dreaded.

    E-mail with the reservation told me that I don't have that until 4 PM PDT 9/10 to complete this order. Everyone knows this! I tried through the app store of Apple, Safari, and Chrome... and always get the same question. I've been on hold with Apple now for 45 minutes trying to get through, and they don't take chat requests. I'm so frustrated! Help!

    The site is probably hammered with requests for pre-order. I'll try again later if I were you.

  • How to share the root of a hard disk in Win7?

    I am able to share a folder, but cannot share the root of a hard disk. Homegroup is off.  In addition, even if I have the password to 'OFF' I always get invited to do since the XP computers on the network, but not Vista computers. Weird?

    Win7 computers have full access to the C:\ root on Vista and XP in network of machines. But on computers Win7 the C:\ root is blocked. How to open readers for full access. I worked with permissions in fsmgmt.msc without a bit of luck. What is going on. It is not that difficult.

    I have several hardrives with hundreds of directories and must share each individually. There must be a way around this?

    Why everyone does not assume that the implications of the root of a drive of sharing are unknown. I get it. I Armi it. But, Yes... I want to share the root of my records. It's like a big giant microsoft diaclaimer whenever I hear it.

    So I thought to it. Finally!

    OK, that's the problem with Windows 7: I had possession of the disk on the local computer (by default), but this is not enough. I had to give "everyone" the drive to another computer to access property. That means logging in inspired by the network from another machine to Win7 computer, you property as "everyone" and therefore, the authorization to access the drive.

    So, here is what I did. Right-click on the hard drive from windows Explorer. Go to properties. Click Security. Click on change. "Everyone" add to the Group and the permissions you want. Then, go to sharing and share the drive as you normally would. The root of the drive will be accessible on the network.

    I understand it now, but it is poorly explained in documents I've read. I spent hours of research on this and cannot understand why MS makes it so hard to share a drive on a network. Totally absurd.

    I hope this helps others trying to do the same thing. In a small home network, it is very common need to share multiple disks in the root of c:\.

    9. Windows cannot complete the installation - Toshiba NB250

      Hello

      My netbook has been sitting not used and the road for about 6 months.
      When I tried to use it the other week he was very slow and kept crashing so I tried to erase the unwanted programs from him but I couldn't.

      The netbook kept crashing whenever I tried to uninstall programs and try to do something about this, even open internet explore took about 5 minutes, it's faster on 15, laptop of my father who has a huge 256 MB of ram in it! I gave up and decided to restore it to the factory settings. I found Toshiba HDD recovery option and follow the instructions.

      The way in which the process a window pops up saying "Windows could not complete the installation. To install windows on this computer, restart the installation '. I clicked on OK, all in all I rebooted the machine about 6 times with the same message.

      I tried to boot into safe mode and in the 5th test (previous 4 raised the same message) I "cannot start Windows.
      A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To solve the problem:

      1. Insert your windows installation disc, and then restart your computer
      2. choose your language settings, and then click "Next".
      3. click on "repair your computer".
      File: \windows\system32\config\system
      Status: 0xc00000e9
      Info: Windows could not load because the system registry file is missing or corrupt.

      Now, I bought a new USB drive and booted from that. The first time it kept freezing during configure them then wouldn't start at all. The second date he kept freezing and then took more than an hour to load windows. I left it for a few days, came back to him and all I could get is a black screen with a white cursor. I now need the netbook for Monday so try again.

      For tests 3 and 4 I run through gentle but end upwards with ' Window3s could not complete the configuration of the system. An attempt to take over the configuration, restart the computer. »

      There are now two different options for operating system on it, I tried both, but get the same answer at the same time.

      Someone has an idea, what happens?
      My warranty is I think (is there a way to check?
      I don't remember when I bought it! It was last year or the year before) so I don't think I can get any help from anywhere.

      Hello

      It is not easy to say what the problem is here. If the recovery image and HARD drive are OK, you should be able to install recovery image and use your neetbook with the factory settings.
      When you've got this netbook as a new machine, I assume you didn't create recovery USB support. Can you confirm this?
      > Now, I bought a new USB drive and booted from that.
      And what is recorded on this USB key?

      I can't say with certainty what the problem, but now you should test original recovery image installation and see what happens. In case the same thing happen over and over again, the problem may be related to the HARD drive.
