Cannot restore Satellite 2415 - S205 from the recovery CD

My laptop model is Satellite 2415-S205.

I used the CD recovery of three in the past to restore my computer to factory settings and they worked without any problems.

Earlier today, I tried to repeat this same process, and, for some reason, it didn't work. The first disc is loaded without problems. But then once asked that the second CD and I put in it, it gave me an error saying: "version mono user cannot make multiple loads.

What it means? I tried to remove the disc and just put it back in several times and it won't work. I'm basically stuck in the middle of the recovery process and I can not do something. And I'm afraid to turn off the computer, because the instructions that come with the States of the CD that you should not stop the process once it is started because it will seriously damage your system.

What is the cause? What should I do? I really need help!

Using Toshiba recovery disks?

Maybe his detects a previous installation or something. Try to remove all partitions on the HARD disk and re-run recovery.

You can use a floppy MSDOS with FDISK to delete partitions non-dos.

  • Satellite A10: Cannot boot from the recovery CD after the replacement of the motherboard

    Heres one in your brain is going...

    I recently started a format hard drive via the normal recovery CD, but it never finished as long as the power cut.

    Not to worry I thought, I kept all my data and a new motherboard was on order.

    The fitting of the new Council, I tried to boot from the recovery disc and all I get is 'non-system disk '.

    Then I replaced the HARD drive with a former to check the functionality of the Cd. The old disks (I tried two) both still booted from the cd and their HDs has worked fine once in windows.

    However...

    When I try to start any of these 'good' HDs from the cd nothing happens, nada zilch. In fact they will not start even to a 'Beginner PC' recovery disk either, so it's not the Toshy recovery disk.

    Another weird thing is when I go into the bios by pressing ESC the power upward and then F1 and try to change the boot sequence and press end to exit and save, nothing happens.

    If the CD is not defective because it is recognized in windows
    The recovery disks may not be at fault because the other disks also fail to start.

    This is not a drive problem hard as other HDs start normally (but not Cd)

    This could be a fault on the new motherboard, perhaps a problem with bios, or the sequence of events suggests something else?

    Any suggestions would be welcome

    Hello

    Long story. In my opinion you should write is a little shorter but with more useful information.
    I am interested in one thing: have you got a new mainboard or used one?

    To be honest, I'm also confused with the recovery disc you are using. The history is confusing.

    > so this isn't the Toshy recovery disk.
    Can you please tell us what kind of recovery CD are you using exactly?

    Hello

    If you have already changed the partitions of HARD drive and deleted files from the HARD disk, then your HARD drive recovery is too bad!

    But to make sure that the HARD drive recovery is not possible please press F8 immediately after the power of the laptop. Usually a start menu should appear and you should be able to choose the option called fix my computer. Then you should be able to choose recovery option.

    But like I said that this is only possible if your HARD drive was not formatted!

    If you have formatted the HARD drive and changed partitions then you will need a Toshiba DVD recovery that you have not because you didn t he create at the beginning. Is this good? Well, then you must order the recovery DVDs if you want to retrieve the laptop to factory settings.

  • Satellite A100 PSAA9A - drivers and applications from the recovery disk

    This laptop was reformated HARD drive and I decided to try Windows 7 (beta), which is currently installed and working well. I would like to install the original drivers and applications from the Toshiba recovery disc but I don't want to reinstal the operating system (XP). Is this possible?

    As far as I know that is not possible because applications from the recovery disk and drivers are for Windows XP and they are not compatible with Windows 7.
    In addition it of not possible to install the only special drivers or applications from the recovery disc.

    You can download all the drivers and tools on the site of Toshiba, but I doubt that it of compatible with Windows 7, but you can try it out and post your result here.

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to find any public documents on the upgrade of the HARD drive. We can just speculate. I also believe that we must avoid problems with 80 GB, but it can happen with a larger capacity hard drives will not recognized correctly.

  • XPS 12 / Win 8: how to boot from the recovery partition / reinstall Windows?

    Messed up things on a newly purchased 12 XPS in Windows 8, and I want to boot from the recovery partition and reinstall windows.

    Support online pages point by pressing F8 during startup, but this does not at all.

    How can I access the recovery partition?

    To access to the menu of, , press F2.

    To enter the boot options menu, press F12.

    Because the XPS 12 boots so fast, it is better to repeatedly press F2 or F12 after restarting the machine. During the startup process, texts for options should appear at the bottom right of the screen. If you enter Windows, you will need to restart again and press F2 or F12 until it works. However, I don't think there is an option in the BIOS to restore the computer to its factory condition. The previous post by DELL-VIKRAM M describes how to properly restore the machine to its factory state.

  • How can I get WIndows8 TouchSmart to boot from the recovery disc

    How can I get WIndows8 TouchSmart to boot from the recovery disc? With the recovery in the drive disk when I do a reboot or stop and start it does not read anything from the DVD player. My computer is a HP TouchSmart 23-D160QD.

    @AirForce9731,

    You may need to change the boot order to boot from the DVD drive first.  The steps to do this are in the document below.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00364979

    These are recovery disks made by the recovery discs sent by HP?  They will not work in a different system (you will receive an error message), but you are able to get the boot floppies in a different system?  They should be able to start up to a point where the error message will be displayed.

  • Restoration of images deleted from the Recycle Bin?

    My husband removed some photos of our computer that he thought that I had already put the disk, it has deleted from the Recycle Bin as well. How can I return these photos? I know everything on a computer can be found, I don't know how to do. Can anyone help? Thank you very much.

    Becca5669,

    Many users of the community have found success using Recuva, however, I can't make any guarantees because it is a 3rd party program.

    Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • Windows vista USB flash drive installation AND recover the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disk

    Hi all

    I formatted my laptop some time ago. Now I want to reinstall windows vista (came along with my laptop). The thing is due to a problem that my CD drive does not work so I would like to install windows vista by using a USB key. Can you get it someone please let me know if this is possible... If Yes, how I've go ahead make a bootable USB.

    As someone can tell me if there is a way to retrieve the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disc.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    This can help, but you will need a Vista system to create the working bootable USB key:http://www.askvg.com/how-to-create-bootable-usb-drive-to-install-windows-vista/

    As for the product key, it should be on a sticker on the laptop (usually on the bottom). If it is not readable, contact the manufacturer for further assistance. As we said already, the product key is not on the installation disc.

    Replace broken laptop optical drives is not too difficult, you can see this as another option.

  • How to uninstall Windows 7 from the recovery disk?

    By mistake, I installed Windows 7 on the recovery disk. I have only windows 7 installed on my Dell Inspiron. However, it is now a multi-boot, as Windows 7 is stored on the operating system and the recovery drive. How delete/uninstall Windows 7 from the recovery drive (more free space on it is exhausted). I already tried to 'Format' and 'Remove the Volume' in the disk management page, but the options are grayed out and I can't access it.

    It's probably that you managed to install on the Dell recovery disk victory because it would be too small.

    Open the recovery partition in Explorer to view the files.

    Use msconfig to remove incorrect boot entry
