• Satellite A80 135 impossible to reinstall the operating system using the recovery disk

  Hello

  Ive got a laptop 2005 Satellite a80-135 that worked very well until I tried to format the HDD after a performance of Ram boost operation (kingston 1 gb Ram module).

  Just after that, the computer started showing software problems and finally crashed;
  So I decided to reinstall the entire operating system yet. and here, I found the problem I really hope you can help me

  The thing is that I can't format my hard drive to my cd player (with recovery CD in) when the machine is restarted.
  In theory, start the Panel menu should appear after the computer reboot with the C key simountaneously key but nothing happens.

  Thanks in advance
  concerning
  jozze

  Hello

  Simply, the C button the STRANGE start.
  You can also try to press F12 after the laptop has been powered.
  Then the start menu should appear on the screen and then you could choose the ODD (optical disc) in order to boot from the CD.

  If this is not possible, the question is perhaps related to WEIRD malfunction or recovery disk.
  Maybe the CD/DVD drive cannot read the disc properly and so the laptop can not boot from the disc.
  You can try to copy the recovery CD using another computer and might try to start using the copied CD.
  If it does not the problem might be related to the WEIRD failure.

• Satellite A300 - how to recover the operating system without a recovery disk?

  First of all, sorry for my very bad English.

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300, PC 9 months ago. I had problems with a virus and result is that despite clean-up and disinfection, the computer is still infected and I refused access to the hard drives and regedit.

  I thought restoring the operating system factory preinstaled (hopefully, this is the solution and not the formatting) and Barrie told me to check out http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

  I did it, but the PC it's imposible because there is no files. I don't have a rescue CD (if newbee).

  What can I do?

  Hello

  Usually the A300 (European series) has been equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would be you allows to recover the laptop using the files on the HARD drive. But if this is not possible while something went wrong with the maybe HDD it s due to the infection by the virus

  In any case if you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive you need the recovery disc.
  You can order it as suggested by resident on the other hand, you can use the MS Windows Vista disk and can download driver Toshiba page.

• Error loading operating system - version of WHS disks

  I have an old MSI k9 & AMD x 2 4600 + Im running WHS v1 (but I don't think it's a problem WHS).

  Moments ago, the server crashed (bad discs).  First, the configuration of this system has always had a problem starting from cd/dvd player and always been specific as to which SATA connection is used to start a disk of. In the past, I had to build a system disk / boot on another pc then it switch.

  I did now, twice. The reconstruction on the main PC went without a hitch. The new boot disks joyfully on the main PC. I transferred the drive (s) in the server box, and I get the error "error loading operating system".

  I tried to connect to all of the SATA ports in turn, with different cables, including one that was on the other PC. I removed all other players to avoid confusion.  Software diagnostic WD gives readers a certificate of good health.  BIOS identifies the present disc, and it is configured to boot from it as first choice.

  The BIOS is the same as it was when buying - but this version has 2 previous builds to get

  I have to believe the following

  1. the discs are good, and the construction is lilkely ok.

  2. the cables are also correct.

  So the fault (s) are:

  1. the SATA controller has ceased to be particular that disc it starts from, allow no boot at all, so a fault of SATA controller

  2. There is something in the full version, which is connected to the main computer - maybe I should stop the construction earlier and swap discs then?

  3. a BIOS setting is in the way and I can't.

  4. something else is at fault

  Its the thing that bothers me and so I hope that someone can suggest what I could try next. I Apologise if this isn't the right place for this, I am new to this sort of thing. Best regards, Michael

• XP to 7 upgrade when the operating system is on a disk separate from the data in My Documents. Do I still need to transfer data from my disk storage documents?

  So I looked at what it will take to upgrade the system to Windows 7 and it seems that for xp, it's a custom installation.  Since I have my data, music, photos, movies, ect in my documents on a separate disk can I just forget to do the recommended data transfer and do a clean install on the operating system drive?  Of course, I'll have to install programs on it but I'm worried about Windows 7 being able to find the separate disk and re-issue of links so that when I send something to my documents it always goes on this disc.  Worried about problems or suggestions anyone can see that I will meet you.  Thank you

  Hi monty67,

  Yes, you will need to perform a custom installation of Windows 7 on Windows XP, operating system, and also you need to reinstall programs work in Windows 7, some programs may not work in Windows 7 due there compatibility with Windows 7.

  After I installed Windows 7 on the computer, you can use the external hard drive with no problems, some external disk may required additional drivers to be installed under Windows 7.

  See the article below to know the process of custom installation.

• If I use the SSD to initiate the operating system and a hard disk of data what exactly will be the benefit of this end?

  Hello

  I would like to know if I use the SSD drive for the operating system boot and a hard drive for data. What will be the benefit of this effect,

  I know that SSDS starts much more quickly and reads and writes data faster.

  When I use the SSD for OS then my only wil advantage so I have faster from the OS, not more than

  but the reading and writing data wil either by the hard drive so I wil not use all the benefits of the SSD, data wil be read and written by hard drive!

  Am I right or wrong?

  Johan

  SSD benefits for most of the time of loading, and it is for all software. If you install Windows on a SSD and return to a HARD drive after a few weeks you will certainly appreciate the value of an SSD, just for the

  only the loading.

  While startup in Windows is the most obvious, the Windows advantage is usually a bit snappier

  on an SSD.

  An SSD expected to also help in many programs such as Photoshop, video editing, the processing speeds

  or CAD, due to data being created during the writing of these programs.

  I think the reads and writes more visible with large files.

  All my programs are on the SSD, but my games are on the HARD disk.

  Games to load a large number of data and will load faster on an SSD, but it's still a few seconds.

  and as games use a lot of Go, it is not really profitable to keep (150 +) on an SSD.

  -J' I keep most of my data, except the music (to save space) in my user folder, but haven't really

  noticed a difference in speed when opening a data file, such as a Word, PDF, images, or similar

  'small' files from the HARD drive.
  -I wouldn't take an SSD less 120 GB. Try to run Windows on a 60GB translate too

  stuffing autour with management of data between the SSD and HDD. In particular, as it should be

  keep 20% an SSD free to allow the two "garbage collection" and deliver a load of

  cells of extra memory to extend the life of the DSS (data gets moved to empty cells when the cells die).

  There is also a noticeable difference between the speeds of SATA2 and SATA 3 controller, so if your motherboard uses the SATA2 more the advantage of an SSD is not as great as with SATA3.

  In addition, the new SATA3 SSD controllers are faster than those of two years ago.

  SSD is a big enough topic. There are many items in the wild that may be useful.

• What hides under the operating system and is invisible Disk Warrior and TechTool Pro?

  new background of ignorance

  Maggy apprentice gave me his 2010 MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard) for repair, it was incredibly slow, often cold.

  I threw my skills to it:

  Repair permissions

  Disk utility

  Target mode: Warrior of the disc; Tool Pro technology

  I tried resetting the PRAM and SMC.

  In the target, I also cleared its player (after performing a backup) and tried

  installation of Snow Leopard disc - it stuck.  Installation at a standstill, again and again.

  Problems overall, I could not recovery mode or

  safe mode even though I could get the boot drive and target mode.

  He certainly felt as if the keyboard was in trouble.

  Finally, I copied the backup to disk of my wife, who was also the snow leopard,

  on a portable computer freshly erased and voila - it worked.

  I could then use to wipe the drive, then download and

  install El Capitan.

  After 2 failures, followed by repair disk, he succeeded, I could

  migrate the original backup again and everything is now up-to-date.

  All the software proceeds smoothly, and the keyboard is good,

  Some of the above was conducted in partnership with the Apple phone support

  and the guy said something that bothers me is why I write

  it: -.

  He said that none of the diagnostic and repair tools, I used went deep enough

  to diagnose or repair the software deep that runs under everything else.

  Can I ask here - this looks like PC BIOS?

  and if so, is there really all tools that can diagnose and fix problems here?

  TIA

  Disk Warrior takes the sophisticated approach for repair of directory (the same function as the line of fsck command, also headed by disk utility repair disk when it is not the system startup).  And although there is some data recovery options on its own, I would like to use a non-invasive data recovery tool before you try.   As a munged really directly still will leave you without access to your data.  Or a dying hard drive that may have similar symptoms as a bad directory.   All the more reason to backup before you do anything either.

  http://discussions.Apple.com/docs/doc-1689

  TechTool Pro is able to look in depth of the material and tell you if there are hardware issues can be changed or need repair.  Regarding the BIOS, yes the Mac have a BIOS, and they have firmware too.    But any really bad material is only repaired by replacement.  TechTool Pro can tell a lot of cases where it is necessary, with more details than the test integrated hardware Apple.  And in some cases, do a repair like disk Warrior, but it is not infallible.    Since released RAM 128 MB, there is no test equipment that can reliable 100% of the time tell you when the RAM is bad.    However, when it detects as being faulty, you can believe it.

  Thank you for your message.

  "I went to the dell support site and downloaded what was in the audio position who has not solved my problem here either.

  What did you do with the file downloaded from the Dell support site? You double-click the file to run it?

  What version of the Soundblaster device you are trying to install? Some Soundblaster cards are not compatible with Vista.

• Reinstalling operating system inherited when the disk is broken

  Hello

  I have an old Mac Book Pro (mid-2009) running OSX Yosemite.

  My ultimate goal is to reinstall Snow Leopard, so we can run Pro Tools on it.

  I have an original installation disk for Snow Leopard.

  However, construction in the drive on the MacBook Pro is grumpy and spit just any disk.

  So I need to figure out how I can get around this.

  Fortunately, I also have:

  a MacBook Pro (retina, early 2013)

  a USB superdrive

  an IMac (end of 2015)

  who could help?

  I tried CD sharing, but the old Macbook did not show my other laptop as a device.

  This allowed me to share the screen, so I could see the open Snow Leopard disc, but I'm lost here as to how to use it to reinstall from.

  Especially in Yosemite, puts just a panel of white judgment by default by the installer.

  This old macbook pro is not used for anything else at the moment, and all data is backed up elsewhere.

  So install a cleaning / erasing etc is all viable.

  Any advice much appreciated.

  Why not just fix the Superdrive on the old Mac and use it? st - mac http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/02/use-the-macbook-air-superdrive-with-any-almo /

• Update Win 7 Starter to Home Premium operating system from a hard disk of the laptop with old?

  I have a netbook with Win 7 Starter.  I have an old laptop that the motherboard is dead hard disk.  I would like to transfer the Win 7 Home Premium OS from the hard drive of my netbook.  Since I already own the licence of this OS, is it possible to transfer?

  If Windows 7 Home Premium came preloaded on the old computer where the motherboard is dead, the answer is no. If the Home Premium license is a retail upgrade or full version, then all you have to do is use the key and product upgrade Starter to Home Premium.

  If the Windows 7 Home Premium license you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Home Premium. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option to enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Home Premium, when asked, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium files the stored settings and programs.
