Cannot start the operating system preinstalled on Satellite L350-170

Hello!

Today I was surfing on the internet on MSN etc and my phone froze. I tried control, alt, delete etc and nothing happened so I finally pushed the power button.

When I turn on the laptop now I get this:

* Windows Error Recovery *.

* Windows cannot start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.*

* If Windows files have been damaged or misconfigured, Startup Repair can help diagnose and fix the problem. If the people was interrupted during startup, choose Start Windows Normally.*

* (Use the arrows to select your choice.) *

Launch Startup Repair (recommended) *.
* Start Windows normally *.

When I choose the first option (startup to launch repair) a loading bar comes up saying "Windows is loading files...". ': then a loading bar "Microsoft Corporation", then this charge and brings me to a gray screen:

When I select the second option (start Windows normally), I just get this loading bar for ages, and that the bar is load from the top down, I kept it at least half an hour, a few times and it still remains on the loading below bar:

Any help is much appreciated, thank you!

    Hi everyone, I've seen many similar scenarios. Not sure if mine is unique. I do not get a syntax error as others, and this was not due to the update of windows. Our suddenly stopped working.  I tried knocking PF12 w/out of the options for safe mode and couldn't get to a MSDOS command prompt I just get blank screen.  I have the CD to our computer that comes with it when we bought there are records of the operating system, but do not say recovery or restart the disk label so I didn't know if she would it reboot or rewrite it. All ideas and comments are greatly appreciated.

  • How to start the installation of recovery on Satellite L350-170?

    Hello

    I'm new to this so please be gentle with me! -J' have a Toshiba Satellite L350-170 (Windows Vista SP2). I burned the recovery DVD 2 right after that I got back. I decided to get it back to factory settings, so I put the first recovery disc in the drive and... nothing. It will not automatically play/start to start the recovery process. I can access the files on the drive through "MY COMPUTER" but you can see a 'set-up '. I had already used the discs to recover and it worked then no problem.

    There is nothing wrong with the computer or the error messages

    Apologies if its been said before, but can someone help or I would like to know what is happening please?

    with deep gratitude

    Myke

    Hello Mike

    If it worked in the past that I n t see the reason why it shouldn't still works one time, except the discs are damaged.

    Anyway, try this:
    Start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu
    Insert disk 1 into the optical disc drive
    In the list, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER

    ODD must start to read the disc and you should see something on the screen.

    > Laptop computer just turn off after a few minutes of work.
    > Then I format C with Windows XP Pro, but it turns off as before.

    I think this sentence is the key description resembles your laptop could overheat and automatically stops.
    Why is this happening? Well, the laptop could overheat temperature high inside the laptop. It will stop automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.

    My long experience, a clogged cooling fans could be responsible for the bad cooling and the temperature high.

    So what to do?  :|
    In my opinion, he must clean the fans to get rid of dust and debris.

    The jet of compressed air is very useful tool and could help you to clean the fans.

    Hope this helps to get the laptop running.

    ____________________________________________________

    Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    What is happen?

    Unfortunately, we know absolutely nothing about your system.

    This is because the MS Answers forum does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Method 1 - last good known Configuration will not help you (this is not what is LKGC for).
    Method 2 - a good start but only if you have already installed XP Recovery Console (extremely unlikely on this planet) or have a genuine XP installation CD bootable (most people don't).

    It makes sounds like you need to run chkdsk /r from the XP Recovery Console to repair your (NTFS) file system, but you will have to start on something for this.

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (This includes the plug pulling, buttons power and removing the battery).

    These can cause corruption in the file system that must be fixed before you do anything else.

    If none of these events occurred (or even if they have not taken place), you must verify the integrity of your file system before anything else (especially "try" things).

    Not knowing anything about your system, I would say this:

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and don't forget (no support for XP not necessary).

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  • BlackBerry 9550 smartphones - cannot load the operating system and a re-boot loop

    Sorry if this is going to be a long post.

    I've been running OS 428 and a hybrid (428 based) since it was leaked without a hitch. 2 weeks ago, my 9550 rebooted on its own with a JVM ERROR 534 (I think it's the code because the screen just turned white with the error message and then rebooted on its own). He never started up properly then. The boot process dates back to about 3/4 of the way then the FMV of error appears again then re - start. A batt pull does not help.

    I wiped and loaded (loader.exe) operating system but when loading cod, it will again restart (reboot occurs when email.cod is loading). Tried several times and never loaded properly. I tried a load OS 428 right and it went well. When it is started successfully, I wiped the device and loaded the hybrid that I used before and everything was fine. When filtered 451, I upgraded and everything is fine - for a week!

    He has just restarted on its own again. I think with the same JVM error code! I'm unable to load the operating system using loader.exe. I even tried the "loader.exe /nojvm" switch does not. I wiped with Jl_cmdr or BBSAK, still no go. I then used DM BB. I loaded OS 320 and loaded correctly. Then I wiped and loaded the OS. It is not load or when it loads successfully, the JVM error still appears 3/4 of the way of the boot process.

    So when I load OS 320, it will load fine even after a battery pull. If I use OS 428 or 451 (both narrowed via Shrink-a-BONE), JVM error no longer appears when using the device or during the startup process. Don't forget not that previously I was using either straight (shrunken) 428 or 451 and a hybrid with no problems.

    I decided to try a derelict OS 451 and used the "Platform.alx" of OS 320 file. It works so far! Pulled the battery about 4 - 5 times already and loaded all my apps and no JVM error for about 2 days. I tried right OS 320 and he also re - will start on its own several times a day.

    It looks like completely wipe the device using BBSAK, Jl_cmdr and DM BB do not really completely clear the device.

    What could have caused the reboots and error JVM?

    EDIT: I tried to wipe the device using the erase option in the security options. The status bar has reached 100% and then restarting the device, the FMV of error pops up again and my 9550 goes back to a continuous process of reboot (even pulled the battery).

    EDIT: I tried the command line "javaloade.exe usb - cloth" to wipe the device and the OS loaded (using loader.exe /nojvm) very well. In the end, shippers said "updated successfully". The unit restarted and about 3/4 of the way - another jvm error! I removed the battery and wait a few minutes before re - insert and is currently the starting now... Will update what's going to happen...

    EDIT: Yes! It finally starts. Will try an another battery pull... 1/4 of the way in which the boot process - another JVM error! Pulled the battery and restart... Error JVM still about 50% in the boot process.

    EDIT: Can't get any OS to load using 'loader.exe' or 'loader.exe /nojvm. It stops during email.cod loading, then restarts. I was able to load OS 320 well via BB DM. problem is when I click on Options, error: "error starting net_rimm_bb_options_app: symbol KeywordFilteredScreen.» KeyChar "not found" is my watered device? Help, please. Thank you!

    EDIT: I tried to load the operating system by:

    -remove the battery.

    -Connect to the PC.

    -Command prompt: command /nojvm loader.exe

    -When it says connection to the device and the battery with a red 'X' icon is displayed, I re - insert the battery.

    -The operating system loads very well but are unable to properly start like 3/4 of the progress bar startup occurs an error in the JVM and then reboot again. Help!

    --> Was able to start properly after a second reboot not forced. Will try a battery pull... JVM error again... Will allow it to boot on his own w/o a battery pull...  Error JVM...

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro S500-10F provided with Windows 7 Professional with downgrade rights (and DVD) to XP Pro. I downgraded to XP Pro and everything worked fine (I did it on a number of similar machines).

    Then Windows started to have problems and crashing with BSOD. I decided to rebuild the machine to reinstall Windows XP Pro from DVD supplied with the machine. The thing is it gets 2% and then gives the BSOD.

    I thought it was the hard drive because there was some disk errors when it removed and put it outside of another machine, so replaced. Still the same problem. I tried to connect external USB DVD drive and boot from that. He did indeed start the external drive but then for some reason, try to copy the files of its own DVD player. I tried to reinstall Windows 7 Pro of the DVD to the top together, I created, this failed. I tried to install Windows XP Pro since version box and have failed.

    At this stage do not know if DVD player or what. He tried to build start player flash, but even if the system seen as boot option, then tried to boot from the network?

    Any help much appreciated.

    Hey Buddy,

    To be honest I put t think that it is what you can do. You have tested the recovery disk and a new HARD drive, but the same happens. So that would mean it's hardware related problem.

    TOSHIBA recovery disk contains an image pre-tested all drivers and tools. This means that you can still install Windows recovery disc and it will work. If it's not (like in your case) it something wrong with the hardware.

    If your laptop is still under warranty valid, you can bring it to a service provider allowed in your country and guys can fix this for free because of the guarantee. Get in touch with technicians and explain your problem, they will sort it out for you. ;)

  • Unable to run the operating system on Toshiba Satellite L500

    Hello
    I can't get my Toshiba Satellite L500 13D PSLJ3E to work. Here is the chronology:

    1. I brought with Win Vista, it worked great for about 6 months, but began to slow and I decided to change to Windows 7

    2. I installed Windows 7 using custom install (create new folder 'windows', not upgrading to Vista). Once more, it worked fine for about a month, but once more, he ran into trouble - indicating the version of Windows 7 the screen blue of death for 0.5 seconds, followed by a reboot.

    3. I've been searching the net and they said that the best way to get rid of the problem is to re - install. I did (after trying it several windows repairs), but yes, that's right, he's dead - before you start windows, it showed problems with Realtek Wireless.

    4. I had hope that this third time - will work her charm and re-re-installed W7 (each time using new installation).
    Once more time - does not work, but this time I can't even install - windows installer stops at about 60 percent of expansion records and wrote: difficulties with the media device. And after restart I can not find the Hard Drive(the BIOS shows only FDD and CD/DVD)

    Now I'm stuck here, the only way to start the windows is in Mode safe on my Wondows installed on point 3, but not all the time.
    Unfortunately, the first of my recovery DVDs cannot start and on top of that I can't get into the recovery partition by pressing 0 at first upward, but I see the recovery Partition when I go to the WIndows Installer.

    PS: I have problems with the high temperature of the laptop.
    Is it possible that HD goes out to safe the data thereon for overheating?

    Thanks in advance.

    Do you mean that the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS?
    This would mean that the HARD disk is dead.
    This would explain the Windows installation problems
    I don't very well why the HARD drive died after a short period of use, but it turns out that HARD drive might die always head m accidents are not unusual and sooner or later would die each HARD drive

    However, I don't see a real solution that you need to replace the HARD drive
    If the laptop is under warranty, then you might ask a technician ASP replacement that should be done for free

    Good luck
