Cannot repair Windows 7 on the Satellite Pro C650 18U

Since getting my new laptop Toshiba in October, I had endless problems. It's going to be big, but I guess that relevant to the cause of the problem.

My first problem with him has come to uninstall McAfee. I was able to do a full restore (it was new so had nothing to lose but time) and got a tool to get rid of everything that McAfee.

All very well for a while, using AVG free antivirus. It was December before when AVG does an update that causes Windows 7 crash, usually when you sign off the coast. I was not using the machine a lot like Christmas and it seemed to work ok if I turned off, went in safe mode, normally closed then loaded windows normally. At this point, I knew not that the problem was of moy. But due to start working again, I needed to make it work properly, so I spent some time searching online (on my PC) and discovered the problem of the AVG. He had a so bad I could do nothing even in safe mode. By clicking on any AVG associated icon or file crashed the entire system. I found a fix to keep AVG running by renaming a couple of exe.bak of exe files. It worked and the computer was working normally, but I had to get removed AVG that proved impossible because I still couldn't get everything what key of AVG to do anything at all.

I installed a free trial of an uninstall program, RevoUninstaller. It took most of the day, but finally it has deleted everything. One of the steps is to run the uninstall program of the selected program where he stopped for hours and the next step in the list of all the remaining files showed thousands of hundreds of other files and registry files, so I guess that the uninstall program does not work at all and revo removed all.

The next day, the computer went well. I installed avast and everything was going well with one exception - the product preinstalled toshiba update program.

The day after BSOD. I tried startup repair, you have 20 minutes to a black screen with a blinking cursor, possibly a pointer of big white mouse and nothing else. Tried safe mode, when it is run through the list of files, just to stop for a while and had no further. Dug my disk to repair windows 7, put that in, start from it, has had the same problem with the Startup Repair tool, empty large needle on a black screen.

So what do I do next? I have the windows XP restore disk came with the laptop. I try to boot from that? If I have TO I could still do an another factory restore but I have some files on there and I'm pretty p off would be constantly having to bother with this machine.

It was suggested to me on another forum that the problem could be with the machine, such as Windows 7 should not have these problems with the antivirus. It is still under warranty.

Many thanks in advance.

Hello

Yes, you can use the Windows XP disk to install Windows XP on your laptop, but then Windows 7 is removed and t, you can use it, you can expect you reinstall Windows 7.

Did you create the Toshiba recovery disc to install Windows 7? Using this disk, you can restore Windows 7 to factory settings. This means disk HARD will be deleted and with all the tools and pre-installed Windows 7 driver will be installed automatically.
Just check your manual for more information.

But the problem is if Windows doesn't boot you are not able to create this disc
You can use the recovery disk as described here:

If not and you want to return factory settings you can order a new disc of Windows 7 here:

    Hello

    Hi people

    I have been using Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D-12 X. But because he of been running very slow, I decided to put windows xp on it.

    So I put the drive in a two set windows xp and when he gets two the part were I need to press on enter, a blue screen comes on. I checked the laptop and its all ok, I even took the HD set windows xp upwards with her on some pc and it works fine.

    But as soon as I put the HD in my laptop it won t charge up are anything... IF anyone can help me with this, it will be a great help.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to two read this.

    At first, I must say that your laptop is designed for Win7 and maybe you should continue to use Win7. Problem is that laptop with the factory settings is quite slow but it can be changed. What you need is to optimize Win7 preinstalled. Check out this forum and you will find many threads with good description and detailed what we can do about it.

  • Cannot install Windows XP Home on Satellite Pro A300

    Hey guys,.

    I was hoping I could find help on these forums. I hope I posted this in the right place.

    There is, Windows Vista is crazy on one of my laptops, and I wanted to install XP. (No, you can't laugh at me). I have XP Pro SP3 disk.
    Although even the recovery agent that Toshiba has on all of its portable computers computers could not solve these problems, I had. I put the XP Pro Sp3 disk in the CARPET * A DVD-RAM UJ880AS drive, hoping to use the formatting on it, so he let me install XP as Microsoft/Windows made it impossible to return. In any case, the formatting went all well and then just install came with billions of mistakes.

    I currently have a Ubuntu Live CD running on it to make it actually DO something, and its working fine. But I want really bad XP on it.

    I think that the issue could be a DEFECTIVE SECTORS on the HARD disk.

    I need help and input.

    I buy a new HARD drive and hope that installation work? Buy a new laptop?

    Your help is appreciated like you wouldn t believe. This has been driving me crazy for centuries.

    Hello.

    (1) check if your CD has no scratches.
    (2) make sure that the DVD player lens is clean (dust). Otherwise, perform a cleaning operation using the stick of hydrophilic cotton and alcohol (make it very accurate and avoid making any what micro scratches).
    (3) back up all data from all partitions. Then start a new installation of Windows XP. In the settings, delete all your existing partitions (make sure, after that you have ONLY space unpartitioned) and then create new partitions to default size. Format these partitions in NTFS (fast) mode. Finally, install the system on the C partition.

    That's all.

    Good luck to you and keep posting your progress.

    Kind regards

  • Windows Update: failed. __Code 643 windows Update encountered an unknown error. _ * AND * __I cannot repair Windows 7 with the disc either. My guess is: these issues are related...? __

    I have THREE questions which PEUVENT all be linked togther... What do you think?

    [I am slot as Windows 7 Ultimate (free upgrade to Dell PC w/purchase) on a Dell 64 bit PC XPS435]
    I've upgraded from Vista about 3 weeks ago.

    #1 - Two weeks ago I had a problem with the installation of Nero/LiquidTV-TiVo to my PC... (this is also when the problem started).
    To get the "Nero" thing figured out, I took the advice of someone on the Forum/Blog of Nero. The person has provided a lenghty explanation how to uninstall LiquidTV completely by removing the registry files... I don't really know what I'm doing in the registry, but everything that I helped my problem of Nero, but I couldn't tell you WHAT I deleted OR if I have deleted any bad subfolders or whatnot!... the next time I started my PC is when the NEW NUMBER is right.

    #2 - On my next BOOT, Windows Update has found an IMPORTANT update:

    A security update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 for x 64 systems (KB954430)

    .. .and it fails every time, it tries to install saying this:

    Windows Update - failed

    Code 643 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.

    "Get help with this error" provides little or no help... but it says this:
     "WindowsUpdate_00000643" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"

    All the research I did, the problem seems to be with Microsoft .NET Framework... .and all the solutions I found talking about it, "UNINSTALL all THE .NET FRAMEWORK & REINSTALL" ... I tried and there is no .NET Frameworks listed in Add/Remove, and when I press on ' VIEW INSTALLED UPDATES'... " on my PC it says, "no updates are installed on this computer"... what the _____?

    #3 - Today, I thought I would just pop the WINDOWS 7 installation disc and do a repair/upgrade... It will not be upgraded.
    He cycles most of the way through, then he Has STOPPED and says this:

    The following problems prevent upgrade Windows. Cancel the upgrade, perform each task, (it lists only a SINGLE task), and then restart the upgrade to continue.

    • Windows needs to be restarted if necessary to system files can be changed before you continue.

      Does not help restart. He tried 3 times and he ends up doing the same thing.
      Is it possible I deleted something out of the register so far here and which is cause of all this?
      If so, is it possible to fix WITHOUT doing a new install of Windows 7?
      OR... anything can be a problem... Please HELP!

      (And please note: I am a first year student college with specialization in computer science... but I just started last semester, so I don't know what I should... yet. - though, I SHOULD have known better than to mess with the registry!) My bad).

      Thanks a lot for your time in advance, and I look forward to hear from you!  VikeMike4

    Erwan,
    You must read this entire thread and the State, if you have tried the steps listed here or that you tried to fix the problem.  Take a look at this article, because it has a solution for 643 errors: KB971187

  • External mouse and keyboard do not function correctly on the Satellite Pro C650

    I have problem with my external mouse and an external keyboard. All started about 3 weeks ago. They freeze, jump or a stop, the most annoying is the mouse, I need to plug it back usually. This will work well about 1-5 minutes and once again. Touch Pad works well.

    I have installed the latest Windows updates, also downloaded and installed the drivers from Toshiba web. I configured the default BIOS settings. Nothing helps.

    I don't have a recovery disk to try it. Is there any solution other system recovery/reinstallation then?

    Someone had this problem?

    Hello

    It is not easy to say on this issue.
    Do you use wireless devices? Are the batteries OK?
    Have you noticed the same problem with other USB devices?
    I assume that the two uses of devices USB port of your laptop.

  • Someone at - it problems with the Satellite Pro C650 battery?

    Any other owners have problems with their batteries?
    Even when completely loaded - then unplugged and not on internet, I get less than an hour out of her life.

    Has been using MS Word in the last few days - and had to plug the laptop in an hour!

    Hello

    We need to change and optimize battery usage settings.
    This is possible in power management.
    You can decrease the screen brightness and can change another option which is located in the Windows 7 power management.

    The point is that the battery depends on its use for laptop and you will still notice different battery due to the use of different software and different settings working time.

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite Pro C650-10Z

    Hello

    I was wondering if I could upgrade the processor in the Satellite Pro C650 10Z for better performance in games. Is it possible to change the processor of this laptop?
    And if it is possible, will require computer support the AMD Phenom II X 4 840?

    [Thanks:]

    Hey Buddy,

    > I was wondering if I could upgrade the processor
    This not s official in charge, and if you do that, you lose the warranty. In your case I wouldn t this becaue she s too risky. In the worst case you damage something and then you have to buy a new laptop.

    > for better performance in games
    Game performance is mainly based on graphics card and no CPU, but updated graphics card is also not possible on laptop. On laptops there is no easy CPU or updates of graphics as on desktop computers.

    > it will support the AMD Phenom II X 4 840
    Just for your information: the Phenom II X 4 840 is a desktop processor and not for laptops. ;)

  • Satellite Pro C650 - motherboard is dead

    Hello

    1 post but here goes.
    Owner of the Satellite Pro C650 for a year now and a wek he just started to smoke and then went away.
    I checked with my warranty & expired on September 30.

    Now my problem is that I can't find info on the motherboard that is inside.
    I did not open or anything, but if you put chips of RAM you can clearly see a little square chip burned.
    So I would ask is this a common fault.

    As the model number of mobo so maybe I could get a replacement.

    Think that's it
    Thanks for any answers

    Hello

    > I checked with my warranty & expired on September 30.

    It's really a bad luck he damage of s that your guarantee missed just before the death of the motherboard.
    It sounds like an overheating problem
    What to say in your case, the motherboard needs to be replaced and a new party could be ordered from Toshiba ASP in your country.
    New motherboard is expensive, but it s one of the computer laptop expensive pieces next to the portable computer s display so do not know if it s replace the motherboard in your case is worth

    However, you can request the ASP technician an opinion perhaps you could get a second hand part

  • External USB hub limit for Satellite Pro C650

    Is there a limit to how much you can connect via the Satellite Pro C650 of external usb ports?

    Provides four ports hub I, ports seem to work individually and all devices operate normally when plugged directly into the top of the Tower, but when all devices are plugged into the hub and combined high tower, there are future errors.

    Thank you
    Karyn

    Well, I think that this should not be a problem if the unique USB hubs provide clean power.
    The fact is that the only USB port provides common 500mA and if several devices would share the power of a USB port then it might be possible that the 500mA available would not be sufficient for all USB devices.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - cannot start Windows more

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C650 11Z model under Windows 7 Home Premium. I'm not very savvy computer. I can use my computer to perform tasks and use the software, but I m not very got when it comes to computer and tinkering under the hood, somehow.

    I was using the laptop yesterday evening to watch a You Tube playlist and was downloading a PDF 29MB file in the background. I have done this kind of thing before and never encountered any problems.

    When the download finished (I use Google Chrome) I clicked the button at the bottom left of the screen to open the download. You Tube then frozen.

    I could see the little green circle spinning around like loading upward download, but nothing was happening. Then Google Chrome no longer according to the bar at the top of the window.

    I tried CTRL + ALT + DEL, but the workload Manager wouldn t. The only thing I could do was turn off the laptop and running again, as it had frozen him completely. When I turned on it again, I had the Windows error recovery menu as shown in the following image.

    http://www.TechJaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Win7-error-recovery.PNG

    The problem is that none of these options does nothing. If you choose the recommended option (for example Startup Repair) it comes up with the gray bar saying Windows loads the files and then will just a black screen. By selecting Start Windows normally gets you to the swirling colorful circles that make up the logo Windows and he said: start Windows but still once, it does nothing but just stick to that.

    A friend told me that a BIOS reset * may help. However, I don't know how to get the BIOS on the laptop. He called Insyde H20 installed and I don't see the option to access the BIOS.

    Someone at - it ideas as to what could have wrong and how can I fix? I don't have a recovery disc as my laptop was bought for me by a charity. The warranty has expired now so that I can contact t their support line.

    To be honest I don't think BIOS has nothing to do with it. Start your laptop and press F8 several times to display the advanced startup options. You will find the option to start the operating system in safe mode.
    If please test and let us know what happen when you try to do.

    What happens if you access the BIOS at the beginning?
    To access the BIOS F2 press and turn the device on/off.

    Access the BIOS and let it run for a few minutes and check if the display starts at White.

    In addition its recommended to connect an external monitor and generate the display 2. If the 2nd screen is not OK, then the graphics chip could be the troublemaker.
