Satellite U205-S5002: cannot retrieve the Express Media Player after upgrading the HARD drive
So I bought just a new Toshiba Satellite U205-S5002 I love it. One of the great features that interest me was the Express Media Player feature.
My first step was to upgrade the hard disk and 160 GB and 2 GB ram.
I placed the disk and ram in my old laptop and sold it.Before that I did, I made a copy ghosts and ghost of the hard drive to the new drive. Well come to find out...
Toshiba is not provided with this software preinstalled, so I followed the instructions to burn my recovery disk Express Media Player and the boot on the new disk.
So this is where the saga begins...After 15-20 seconds, I get a soothing blue screen (NOT of blue BSOD you mind) who says:
/!\
An error occurred during the recovery of "Express Media Player".
-------------------------------------------------------
Please pick up the image again from the beginning.
Press any key to exit.It is typed exactly as it is on the screen. So, I see some other forums saying: you must have the free space of the disk so I resize the partition that allows 200 MB of space. Always the same... then try 2 GB even... then the 50 GB, same problem...
OK, so obviously not a question of space. I read while I might need to erase the drive... so I delete the partition, this same error... then I run the recovery disk and tell him to wipe the drive, wait 1 1/2 hour, it ends. No dice! So I decide... ok... Well lets try another disk... I have restored my ghost image... and burned the image again... same question... so I decide to the recovery disk and I'll try to reinstall windows in the factory and make a record...
Well, it does not work as well as you think... the image is incomplete... windows works fine... but the c:\Toshiba\ExpressMediaPlayer folder is empty!
I'm happy that I have ghosts my original directory. But I decide allows to Express Media Player a shot more now that I have restored to factory... always the same error... I then decide a trial more... I'll erase drive 1.5 hours, I'll restore from toshiba dvd provided but leaving plenty of space at the end 2 GB (I have a lot about people who tell you to base just around 200 MB)
5 hours later... moment of truth... Well Yes you guessed it... I don't know anything else to try... I have a bad image?
You need one that I can download what has worked for them for sure? Or have - I have completely found myself by replacing the HDD with after market and which is originally a kind of compatibility issue?Thank you in advance.
Gabe at supergeekz dot comHello
It s a great story!
I put t know how to start so maybe first some info on the Express media player.As you said, and has already proposed the Express media player has been preinstalled on the second partition.
If you want to install this media Express on the HARD disk drive, 150-200 MB of free space must be available. This free space must be on the end of the HARD drive and there must be unallocated.
To get these free space on the HARD disk, 3 third-party products should be used as for example the Partitions Magic 8!I'm not going to write a story how to recover the Express media player because Toshiba has already created useful documents, which described complete installation!
I found these documents in the knowledge base of computer Toshiba:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=TIC2* Check this box: *.

I read the article on "How to get back to a previous version of Windows" : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971760/
I use Windows 7 Ultimate beta and found this irritating and much lower than XP. He has a lot of bugs and compatibility issues. It crashes every two hours and I lost many of my personal. So, I wanted to go back to my old XP by a clean uninstall of 7. When I inserted the CD at BOOT XP and pressed a button (as guest), he did not. He just started normally.
Then I inserted within 7, but the gray tab XP installation ! Then I looked far from a solution of Microsoft and went to the link (above). It is said that I need the windows.old file back. But I'm not. I searched all my readers but could not find it. When I typed windows.old in the pavement of research (to the c:\ drive), 4 files are released: file:///D:/Windows/winsxs/x86_microsoft-windows-a..oldertool.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_6.0.6000.16386_en-us_111994699d72a71f/ two other similar to the present and a MUI file.
Does this mean I do not have the windows.old file and therefore cannot go back to XP. Windows 7 will be released soon and I use the RC version. and so my version will expire soon. WHAT CAN I DO NOW?
If there isn't a way, I'm sorry to say that I would be looking forward to the next new Google Chrome OS. I love Microsoft Windows for their sincere services. Please help me and do not let me down...The only time where you can roll to an earlier version of Windows during installation is when configuring real itself. He has no other choice after installing Windows 7 to return to your previous installation within the OS itself. You have manually will reinstall it.

Cannot find the Windows 7 platform
Was impressed when I saw for the first time Windows 7 on the dock that you could organize and add icons instead of using typical desktop icons. It almost made the computer looks like a Mac. My hard drive on the flat after that 3 weeks and when I got the replacement, I could not find the dock.
Windows 7 does not come with the "dock" you are referring. Maybe you use a PC/computer Dell laptop and had the "Dell Dock" software installed?

Cannot find the Windows 7 Desktop in VMWare Fusion
Hi all
I installed VMWare Fusion on my mac. Works very well. However, I can't find my windows desktop. The only thing I can find is Internet Explorer. I know when I installed it, I clicked on something after the small bar at the top of the screen, but I can't remember what. Now, in VMWare fusion window, under Windows7, it shows only a gray screen with an icon of recycle bin on it.
Any thoughts?
Looks like you spent at the sight of the unit.
Just move your mouse up to the center of the screen and should display the VMware Menu and then click on the view menu and select full screen or single window or you can open the menu either VMware Fusion application on OS X, Windows applications menu bar or Dock VMware Fusion tile with a ctrl-click.
