Cannot use the recovery with my Satellite A100 disc

I have the Satellite Pro A100 Series, when I boot it up it tells me "Windows could not starte because the following file is missing or corrupt" \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
I tried to restart with the recovery disk in and you press F12 for the boot menu, select CD/DVD and nothing happens.

Any help or ideas would be great.

Nothing happens?
If I understand you well you are not able to boot from the disk? Have you tried another disc? I mean it might be that the recovery disk is noisy or something else.

    First of all, it would be necessary to know what laptop you have.

    Second, you should check the options in the properties of the graphics card that could help to activate the external TV output.

    Also the use of the FN + F5 key combination should help to switch to the external display!

  • Cannot use the recovery on Satellite P100-227 disc

    I recently bought a laptop and decided to reset via the provided restore disc, to my surprise after having inserted the recovery disk and restart the notebook goes directly into Windows. Even if I went into the BIOS and set the CD/DVD drive as a starting point to the top, or even after pressing the F12 key.
    When the laptop is turned on the drive says that there is no data on the DVD, a double click on the DVD, it says 'insert the media into the DVD drive.

    My previous phone was a Toshiba Satellite 1900 303 and just to test and see if it was a problem with my recovery media, I've used the support of recovery on the P100 and it took me to the correct recovery screen. Then I swapped the media and used the recovery on the old 1900-303 Toshiba P100 and he returned to the correct recovery screen. This got me thinking so I tried a little more data CD / DVD and to my amazement it will read the DVD-R.

    No idea...

  • Re: Cannot use the recovery on Satellite L505D partition

    Hello.

    I am trying to help a friend with their Satellite L505D who had a serious virus problem. I wasn't able to run/install programs with the virus on it. I used a Microsoft tool to remove the rootkit trojan, but I always had problems with viruses. I also lost most of the programs on the computer. All folders were empty (except for some games), so I could not access all of the tools in this way. I could not the machine to load any Toshiba restore utility by pressing zero everything with power. I saw some recovery using F8 during the startup options and had a link to restore the original setting of Toshiba, but clicking that choice has done nothing else a break for a few seconds. I waited several minutes, clicked on it again, rebooted and tried. Nothing. As a side note, once all the while, the recovery partition was visible from explorer.exe. Not before or since.

    So I reformatted the computer with a 64-bit Win7 Home Premium Upgrade disk (the partition of restoration by leaving intact) and then enter the key for the system. Supprise, supprise, it asks me to activate within 3 days.

    My basic question is, can I access this partition recovery in a different way to use it? IE copy its contents, or start on some comand prompt to log e:?

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  • Satellite L500 - 19 X - cannot use the recovery disk

    Well I had this phone two days ago and he used once after installing fire fox and my mobile to wide band of the driver and going to start and find it of going to happen.

    I tried SafeMode (three) and repair and all I got was a screen black with the cursor upward where it should have been a language screen (I used the recovery disc supplied with the notebook) so anyway, after finding out that I wasn't going to be able to fix it, I tried to install , but of course, this does not work, or so I put my XP 64 bit OS on and has perfectly worked, then I updated (using my own upgrade windows 7) and that works fine no problem, so I tried again with the original windows 7 comes pre-installed on the hard drive on the laptop and everything went find until she starts the installation of the driver or updates (I not 100% sure on this but it or after the installation of face recognition.

    Then it stops it of self down and boots back up to automatically restart and asking me if I want to repair due to a bad start, so I did the repair boots back to the top and still says I need to fix and can't find anything wrong and carries on in this circle.

    Now, I was told it could be the registry or there is a problem of graphics, I get pretty tired of having to install/reinstall/format this laptop.

    So if there is anyone who knows of what is wrong or what to do or whether it should be returned to fix, which will be very useful.

    I thank everyone in advance.

    Happy new year :)

    Hello

    Well, I think that it of really difficult to say what is the reason. Maybe the recovery disk is noisy or the files corrupted it.

    At the moment, I can t imagine what it s a hardware problem because other windows drive work properly.

    In your case, I would try to install Windows 7 from a Microsoft disc and then see what happens. If it works properly and that you can install all drivers & tools you need to order a new drive Toshiba Recovery directly.

    Good bye

    Have you tried to format the HARD disk until you try to use the recovery disk?
    Sometimes, I read in the forum that this may solve the problems with the recovery disk and so you can take the Windows XP disc or another tool that is able to format the drive.

    But after that, you have the Toshiba recovery disc. You are not able to use the HARD drive recovery feature.

    What is the problem?

    Someone replace the motherboard of your laptop?
    Sometime, a Toshiba system has had the system board replaced, it may become impossible to image the system using the recovery CD.

    The DMI string contains the model number of the system. When you use a recovery CD to recreate the image on a system, the installation process examines the DMI string and compares this string to the image being restored to ensure that the right image is applied to the correct machine.

    If the DMI string and the label on the image n t game, a bad machine or bad CD message will appear.
    In this case, you should ask the ASP in your country for assistance

  • Re: Portégé R700 - 15 p - cannot use the recovery on SSD 64 GB cd

    Hello

    I replaced my HARD drive to a low size of 64 GB SSD.

    Unfortunately I can not run the recovery cd, he stuck with the error "not enough space".

    I found that I got stuck when he tries to create the DATA partition (for storing the HDDRecovery)

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Please don t create all partitions if you want to use the recovery image. Before installation of recovery partitions will be created automatically and recovery image will be copied on SSD automatically too. So please don t do something.

    Launch the installation of recovery, follow the on-screen menu and choose State factory installation.

  • Means of hard drive failure cannot use the recovery partition. Alas! recovery discs will not read!

    Hard drive decided to throw a wobbly and abandon me. I can't access the drive at all so decided to but a new and use the recovery at least discs bring the machine to its status as an out-of-box.

    That's the problem... It will not read the recovery disc. I know there is some stuff about it because I read in another machine. Until you tell me to change the DVD hardware... it reads very well all the other disks. I loaded Arcronis, as well as other system repair stuff, using the DVD Player/Recorder.

    I have a pukka Product Code for the software, Vista Home Basic. Can I get a Vista Home Basic disc and then use my key to sting?  I'm happy to pay a price, but do not want to buy at the price high. After all, I already paid for it once!

    Any help/suggestions will be much appreciated.

    Mr. Blue Screen.

    Hello

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • Try to run the recovery on my Satellite A75 disc

    When you try to run the recovery on my A75 disc, I get a message that it will not work on a machine not Toshiba. Looks like I'm missing some system files.

    Hello

    You use the recovery disk shipped with this laptop?
    Are you sure you have the right drive?

    Other reasons might be wrong or missing information in the DMI.
    The DMI contains details on the laptop model, serial number and other necessary details.
    If this information is not correct, then the laptop cannot be recognized as a unit of Toshiba and so the Toshiba recovery procedure would not be possible.

    Hello

    I have a toshiba am and when I tried the recoery cd, a prompt comes out saying that the recovery cd is only for toshiba M30... which is what I have!
    The cd came with the laptop and I've used it before without a problem.
    Can someone tell me what the problem with my laptop?

    Thank you.

    Hmm maybe the DMI contains the name of the laptop bad.
    In this case, recovery cannot be installed because the notebook believes the recovery for a laptop CD.

    In this case, you should ask the service point for the update of DMI

    > Can't use the Wi - Fi connection. When you use "Free Config" to find peripheral wireless the popup "this connection is controlled by other software.

    You may not use the ConfigFree for configuring Wlan but own Vista configuration options or the WLan configuration tool like Atheros Clint Utility or Intel ProSet utility. It depends on the WLan card which utility can be used.
    Card Intel-> Intel ProSet utility; Card Atheros WLan-> Atheros Clint Utility

    I guess the message + this connection is controlled by other software + appears because one of the above options controls the WLan.
