Description corrupted on Toshiba HDD

Today after I restarted my laptop I warned that a new driver with the corrupt desription "T E E E PY Q W A 1 (1-1 @" p/q;) " ' p + ' installed on my computer.

After checking the Device Manager, I saw to my surprise that it is in fact my Toshiba "" MQ01ABD100 HARD drive 1 TB SATA3 "(4 months) who has changed is his description to the same as I mentioned above."

Does anyone have any idea on this?

I have no idea why this strange description appears in relation to the HARD drive, but generally you can rename the drive.
Right click and choose "Rename".

  • Toshiba HDD Protection - Shock Sensor Driver does not work with Vista

    I have improved my Tecra M7 for Vista Ultimate last weekend and there are a number of things that do not work. It's very frustrating because I followed the procedures shown on this website diligently upgrade and will have problems.

    Can someone tell me what zip file contains the utility Toshiba HDD Protection shock as I installed everything (except the Config Free because the Zip file seems to be corrupted) and I can't find it anywhere. I noticed that when Vista was recommend the automatic updates after installation it is recommended an updated driver for the HARD disk Protection utility, but is nowhere to be seen and I can't find an installer for anywhere. Does anyone know how to handle this?

    Thank you very much

    I don't know if it will help, but try to use the utility disk for Tecra M9 protection.

    Hello

    Recommend checking this Toshiba multimedia page:
    http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/

    Here you will find a detailed description on each HARD disk drive and you can download the manuals and technical data sheets.

    But since this virtual drive is a special software of Toshiba, most disk HARD must contain this.

    But I checked the link you posted your message, and the virtual drive can be removed from the HARD drive too.

  • How to open external HDD box 3.5 "320 GB Toshiba HDD?

    I have an old 3.5 "320 GB Toshiba HDD (model: http://pan2.fotovista.com/dev/2/5/00496952/l_00496952.jpg)
    (and no more warranty) I think it is broken I don't know. Because it has power and the light flashes but do not start the HD (I mean it there is no "this" sound start).

    So my question is how do I open the case to connect it directly on my PC or what I can do?

    SRY for my bad English ^^

    Hello

    Looks like a failed disk head crash HARD, etc.

    In my opinion there is not a lot of options.
    If the warranty is valid then you should visit your dealer and ask for replacement, fix, etc.

    If the warranty is not valid the dealer would not replace this part.
    What to say, in this case you can try to remove the support HARD drive (don t ask me how, I don't t have this HARD drive) and could try to connect it to a desktop PC using an IDE or SATA cable (depends on the HARD drive) to make sure if it is possible to gain access to the HARD drive

  • Windows cannot be installed after replacement Toshiba HDD

    I installed Windows 7 (and Windows XP) on my laptop A42F, another manufacturer, using a DVD without problem and was used for about 18 months.

    Last week TOSHIBA MQ01ABD050 hard drive has failed and it turns out the disc has been damaged.

    I managed to save most of my data and the hard drive has been replaced by a NEW and similar (TOSHIBA MQ01ABD050) hard disk.

    Using the same DVD as the previous time I can't install windows more. I also tried other CD and DVD that worked before on other PCs and this laptop.

    I tried to install with or without created partitions.

    When booting from a CD / DVD to install Windows, it starts to load files quickly. About 80 percent, it slows down a lot and finally a page with a message (the note below is not the EXACT text):
    Windows has encountered a problem during communication with a device
    .........
    ... contact the hardware manufacturer
    Status: 0xc00000e9
    Information: unexpected IO error

    It is possible to boot from the CD and run MiniXp (or linux) and write about your new TOSHIBA MQ01ABD050 hard drive.

    My questions:
    (a) any suggestion plausible why I can't install?
    (b) has anyone seen this before?
    (c) what can I do to solve the problem?

    Any help will be appreciated

    Hi Jack

    I think it's a bad place to ask for help, even if you have replaced the HARD precedent with the Toshiba HDD drive.
    For me, it is not a HARD drive problem.

    In my view if s notebook BIOS recognizes the HARD drive correctly, then you should be able to install the system on this new HARD drive. But according to your material, some additional drivers (perhaps the drivers SATA) would be necessary, but it should be clarified with the support of laptop manufacturer.

    I think you should get in touch with the manufacturer for laptop support in order to get more details on possible solutions

  • Utility Toshiba HDD Protection cannot be installed on my C50-A513 Satellite

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C50-A513 running Windows 8 x 64. I tried to download Toshiba HDD Protection three times, but every time I download and then to install it, nothing comes. Once its installed, nothing does not appear. It's like the installation bar ends but no dialog to the HARD drive protection arises. I tried to search in under MATERIAL AND AUDIO Control Panel to check if she had been properly installed but found nothing interesting there.

    Yes, I did download the right driver suitable for my laptop and that several times too just to be sure. Someone could tell me what is the problem with this and how can I make it work?

    Waiting for answer,
    Thank you!

    According to specification specifications your machine was shipped with preinstalled Win8.1 64-bit so I m wondering what exactly you do.
    Please don't get me wrong you have the machine with the latest version of the OS, but now you have problems with the old version of the OS.

    Somehow, it is not logical for me.

    In any case, I ve tried to check the download page for your machine on http://www.toshibamea.com/en/Download-Files but anyway it doesn't work properly. I assume that there is only a temporary problem so I can't check what kind of stuff is listed for download.
    Out of curiosity but have you installed driver Toshiba system first?

    I would like to restore the software preinstalled on the hard drive, but I can't find the disk recovery software HARD Toshiba which could install on a newly installed Windows and restore the system from the hard drive. Where can I find it?

    I have a whole score necessary for recovery, nothing moves or deleted.

    Hello

    Toshiba HDD recovery software can be launched via the advanced version preinstalled Windows boot menu. In other words, this feature works with OS preinstalled only.

    Now you have installed another OS (Linux) and this means that you can start t HARD drive recovery option more. HARD drive recovery partition is not enough to do.

    Have you created a bootable USB key using the recovery media creator before installing Linux? If so, you can use this stick now to restore the original settings. If you don t have that stick you can order recovery media here:

  • TOSHIBA HDD/SSD Alert - do I need if I have my laptop on a desk?

    Hello all, I guess my question is not on the HARD drive or the hardware itself, its subject the load or the process CPU usage alert hdd in my laptop. Fact it gives a heavy load for my memory?
    Someone at - he noticed your laptop to be a bit slower when this option is enabled?
    I know it's protection for my HARD drive, I understand that was a time when my laptop falls or is hit, the hard disk will fail and my HDD is damaged.
    But how useful this app if I have my laptop on a desk all the time without danger?

    Do you advise me to turn it off?

    In general the TOSHIBA HDD/SSD Alert function must monitor the operating status of HARD drive and run the backup of the system. It is very useful, but certainly not so important, tool that must run all the time. It runs in the background, does not use the resources so and in fact there is no reason to stop it, only if you want.

    That recommend you?
    In my opinion you should let it run. I have the Satellite P500 and it works all the time. I t n t n stop and I noticed a few performance bad/slow more laptop because of this.

  • Vista recovery disks do not display TOSHIBA HDD Recovery option

    Back to school for 4 children with laptops is a pain, he seems to be constantly before wipe them and their establishment again.

    Any ideas why the Vista recovery disks do not display TOSHIBA HARD drive recovery option?

    I made a USB key and copied all the files from a backup of the Recvery drive to it. The USB displays the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery option but calls for the disks and will not run the recovery of the USB itself. It's annoying, but at least I can still use it to recover the machine.

    I would like to be

    the problem with discs

    or

    get the USB key to retrieve by using its own files instead of asking for the disks. Vista was not created with the option to recover from USB, so maybe I can't.

    HARD drive recovery option appears not in the advanced boot menu if something has been changed or modified on the HARD disk and the flag was removed.
    For example, this may be the case if the partition has been changed, modified or if HARD drive recovery files or folder has been changed, moved, or deleted.

  • Satellite L650-12 q - Toshiba HDD Recovery does not

    Toshiba Satellite L650-12 q
    Windows 7 64 bit

    I am looking to re - install Windows using the Toshiba HDD Recovery software on my hard drive to restore the computer to factory settings.
    I followed the procedure to do this in the System Recovery Options, but received the following message is displayed:

    "The recovery of the operating system is impossible!
    Not found the HDD Recovery folder on the second disc of the first hard drive. There is no valid disk HARD recovery environment on this computer. »

    More details:
    Before you do the above, I supported the system and the files and folders using AOMEI Backupper. I then made the mistake of the merger of C: D: and E: partitions, E: contained HDDR files.

    After having tried the recovery above and receive the above message, I reinstalled the file system I had saved on an external hard drive, which resulted in a copy of the drive C: and E: drive with HDDR files.
    Unfortunately, when I tried to recover the operating system, the same message appeared.

    Then I tried to use a system restore disc, I had created a few weeks ago, but concluded that, for some reason that CD is empty.

    The good news is that the computer still works - slowly - and HDDR files seem to be still there, but for some reason, inaccessible.

    What are my options? I want to go back to initial factory settings so that I can go back and re-install the programs and files that I want to. (I backed up all my files and have records of installation for programs).

    If the worst comes to the worst and I have to buy a Windows 7 disc (if that's even possible - I don't want Windows 8), it would be possible to install on this computer and it would give me a clean install, without any of the garbage which is currently cluttering up my computer?

    Thank you for reading, and I would be grateful for any advice you can offer.

    In your case, the situation is clear: HARD drive recovery facility does not work?
    If you want to have the laptop with the settings you have an option only: for recovery image installation you must use the installation of recovery disc.
