  The fact is that both applications are part of the recovery image, and these applications are available if you plant only settings. They cannot be downloaded and installed as well.

  If you want to have them again, you must install OS using Toshiba DVD recovery.

• Satellite A100 - cannot find the recovery disk to restore to factory settings

  Hello
  I hope someone can help out me?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100, model PSAANA-04E005 under Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 1, 32-bit. I am wanting to sell, but have all my programs stuff etc I want to erase files and be able to convey simple with system also when I bought. Memory (purchased January 2007) gave me a Toshiba Recovery with this power drive do something if I needed it's of course is not the case to be foundI.

  Is there anyway I can fix this? All I can download etc to do this?

  Thanks heaps

  Hello

  If you n t find the recovery disk more and you want to restore the original settings, ask an authorized service provider. Guys can put in order a new disc of recovery for you.
  You have the address of the guy?

  Alternative, you can also sell the laptop without recovery disks. Just wipe the HARD drive before selling it with the HARD drive like s boot cleaning tool Darik and nuke or some other program.

  But I think you get a better price if it comes with recovery disks ;)

  This along with the upload does not work, so I recommend get you the installation disc of Microsoft for the operating system installation.
  All necessary records, tools and utilities, you can find and download from Toshiba support page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

• How to set the Satellite A100-596 to factory without Recovery DVD settings

  I gave my young niece of my old laptop A100-596 for Christmas.
  It worked perfectly on Christmas Eve I packed it upward, in packing of origin, but at the time my niece connected on it has lost 40 GB of data among the drives C and E - everything E drive and the dvd drive had stopped working!

  Now, no one has any explanation for what is happening, nor any reason why a laptop that has performed flawlessly for 18 months would suddenly lose 3/4 of the data on it, but whatever!

  So now I want to restore it to factory, but without a job settings dvd, how? I have all disks involved in perfect condition!
  In addition, I want to fool proof so it can be retrieved in case the person or nothing damaged, this time he cannot repeat the action.

  So I think that if I partition the hard drive so that the recovery of files is accessible by me with a password, which I will NOT share with any of the children, if they bumble once again, then I will be able to recover.

  Moreover, even restoring the system files have disappeared, so I can't even it roll back to a working condition!

  Any advice?

  Hello

  You wrote so much and I think it's the best we descuss all questions slowly.

  I don't know what you mean under non-working DVDs. Is the drive defective optical drive or media DVD is not readable?

  Anyway, the fact is that if you want to have the factory again settings you must install operating system using Toshiba DVD recovery. If you don't have it you can do clean OS installation using the Microsoft DVD facilities. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities are available on the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page > support & downloads.

  When you use recovery media Toshiba HARD whole disc will be erased. Absolutely everything. All data and partitions.
  What you want to do with recovering data unfortunately will not work. You cannot copy the recovery image and start it from the other partitions. Not on Satellite A100.

  On new A300, something like this is possible because the recovery image is stored on the second partition in folder HDDRecovery.

  If you have any other questions please let us know.

• Satellite A100-784: fact partition system restore DVD formats

  Hi guys,.

  I would ask you for help :)

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-784 with Windows Vista Home Basic OEM.
  I have this Toshiba system recovery DVD. If I press F8 during start up I get to the screen where are some options (repair at startup etc.) but I'm interesting in 'Exploitation Windows System Restore'.
  I have two partitions (C:, D :), the system partition is C: :)
  So, I would ask if I use this "Exploitation Windows System Restore" there he reformatted data on the D: partition as well?

  If I press F8 when booting I get to the menu, I chose this computer repair and after that there are options:

  1 startup repair.)
  2 system restore.)
  Restoration complete 3 PC.) Windows
  Memory 4 Diagnostic tool.) Windows
  5. command prompt)
  6 operating system restore.) Windows

  Is it possible to use one of these function just to reinstal C: partition without losing data on the D: partition?

  Thanks for the reply :)

  Hi friend

  usually the system restore the c: partition fair DVD formats, so if you have two separate partitions, the restore DVD should leave the D: partition intact.
  In your case I would choose point 6. (Operating system restore) that supposedly only restores the operating system, which means that it scratches the C: drive...

• Satellite A660 Factory Restore problems

  I have a Satellite A660 Ref. PSAW3A-14V062 delivered pre-installed with Win 7 not provided, but a hidden partition with disk recovery files.

  Decided to do a restore to factory from scratch but ends of disk errors. Removed the HD and connected to another computer.

  Using Acronis Disk Director, I copied the hidden partition (HDDRECOVERY) to another drive and then formatted the drive and copied the partition hidden in it and reinstalled to the laptop.
  Downloaded an ISO image and tried to install it from DVD but received the message that windows cannot be installed on the HARD disk that the drive is about to fail.

  Bought new HARD drive and copied the partition hidden for her.
  I then tried to install from the DVD, but kept getting errors about unable to find files, after ISO more several downloads and burn 5 different DVD the furthest I got was the screen where it is "files", this remains at 0% and nothing else.

  I then tried a factory restore using the "hold 0 during startup", but when I took out the key pressed 0 when the Toshiba start screen showed that nothing happened.

  There was a small Partition 'System' on the original HARD drive I have has not copied. I have a few questions.

  (1) the "System" partition did not the files needed to start the factory restore and if so is there anywhere I can download these files?

  (2) probably a topic for another thread, but no clue as to why I have so many problems with ISO files.

  Cheers and sorry for the long-winded explanation.

  The installation of any recovery is quite complicated. It is designed to avoid a kind of manipulation so original recovery image can be installed either using recovery DVDs or HARD disk recovery facility which must be created with Toshiba recovery disc creator tool.

  To be honest, the whole story is complicated enough, but what confuses me, is
  > Decided to do a restore to factory from scratch but ends of disk errors
  If I understand you right, you have created a drive recovery, right? What exactly happens?
  You can use this drive with new HARD drive?

  This method with files recovery to cope with the new HARD drive does not work. You will not be able to access and begin HARD recovery disk image installation.

  If you have a new HDD only how to install the original Toshiba recovery image is to use the recovery DVD disc.

• On Satellite A105 - S2131 factory restore

  I have a series of Toshiba Satellite A105 - S2131. I'm in the need to do a factory restore, but I don't have a restore disc, because I never saw when I got the computer, and when I tried to create a floppy disk to the computer that it does, I get an error that says in cannot find the file to create the disc. Now I don't know what I can do to make the factory restore.

  Any help would be great.

  Thank you

  Hello

  For me, there is a clear situation you need to order the new recovery media by the nearest authorized service provider.
  But you have another way to get own laptop preinstalled, use CD original Microsoft facilities. All the drivers, tools and utilities, you can find and download from Toshiba support site.

• For Satellite C660 factory restore

  I installed windows 7 pro on my laptop which made my longer laptop for start and stop time down and little slow. now I just want to go back to the factory restore, how can I do this. the pre-installed recovery partition is not show in "my computer".

  Thank you very much

  You cannot start after installation of operating system HARD drive recovery clean facility more.
  You can do this via recovery DVD only.

  Did you create this disc by following the advice of Toshibas rappelling recovery or document s user manual?

  If you have this drive please use it for recovery image installation. If you n t have it you have a big problem today.

• Restoration of an old Satellite A100-204

  I am struggling to find any software at all for my Satellite A100-204.
  I had to reinstall windows XP on it and obviously lost all software pre-installed to the touchpad, software control unit wifi etc etc. It's been a while since I used this machine, so I don't remember even what software have even called, still less how they worked!
  The machine is a hand so I have none of the provided disks.

  Is there anywhere in support of Toshiba systems to get the software for a machine of this old?

  Thanks in advance.

  I think Liam has already mentioned what you need: the drivers are placed in the archive area of the Toshiba UE driver page.
  Installation command isn't very important; Simply start by current drivers such as chipset, LAN, WLan, etc.
  Finally, install the Toshiba tools and utilities.

• Satellite A500 - factory restore

  Hiya

  I was wondering if someone can help me.

  I had no end of problems with my laptop with one thing and another, and for these last months, I had a problem with my windows install. I can not install, download or update anything because it says that there is an error with the installation program. I tried various things to try and fix this, but think that the only thing for me to do now is to do a factory restore.

  The problem is its asking me a password that I don't have. Is there a way to get around this?

  Thank you very much

  PS - or maybe someone can suggest a way to fix the installer: o)

  If you use the Windows login password, use the same. If not, put your account without password name and click Next.

• Satellite A100: Recovery DVD does not work

  I want to restore my Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop to its original factory condition, but the DVD that comes with the package of recovery does not work...

  I have load to start computer press F12, and it starts on the DVD. It says "Loading RAMDISK Image", after which I am told by Toshiba customer service there should be options to clean up the hard drive or restore Windows XP.

  However, after VIRTUAL disk, I see a cursor on a black screen, and then the laptop off and restarts. After the connection, NO CHANGES made...

  What is the problem with that? How can I really use this recovery DVD?
  Someone help me please.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The recovery procedure is not difficult.
  Just try to boot from the recovery CD or DVD and follow the Guide on the screen line.

  Your problem is very strange. You have created all the partitions on the HARD drive?
  I put really t know why your recovery CD doesn't work properly, but I think you should try to completely format the disk (also partitions), then try to boot from the recovery CD.

  Don't forget that the laptop is in the boot mode. (don t mix the standby or hibernation mode)

• Satellite A100 - recovery will not be finished and stop error message occurs

  Satellite A100-S2211TD, OS is Windows XP Home Edition of recovery disk,

  I have updated the BIOS to 2.20 and laptop was working fine. The old installation of Windows factory has worked well.
  After a few weeks, I tried to use the recovery disk to remove the noise from the HARD drive.
  The recovery of disk task completed and the computer restarted.
  I got the stop error message
  STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFA335528, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
  I removed the memory that I have entered over the past two years and return the PC in the factory scene.
  However, recovery will not be finished (he worked to restore).

  I am able to boot in dos with a separate boot disk (Dr. back, windows does not start, not even in the safe control mode) and I did chdsk of the disc and disc is fine.

  I've never used before recovery disc, the only thing different is BIOS 2.20 instead of 1.50.
  WEB of TOSHIBA said that if you upgrade the BIOS most 2.00 you can not return to 1. XX

  Thank you

  Hello

  The A100-S2211TD doesn t support the Intel Chipset!
  This laptop was equipped with the ATI graphics card and the graphics driver on the Toshiba page contains us the graphics driver and chipset driver!

  Have you received 100% good recovery CD?

  In your case I would try to install Win XP from the Microsoft CD to check if the same error would appear if no drivers are included in the CD of the OS.

• Satellite A100 - 785 PSAANE - CD/DVD drive problem

  Hello friends,

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 - 785 PSAANE and its configurations are as follows:

  1.87 C2D Ghz, 1 GB of Ram (512 + 512), Windows Vista Basic, CD/DVD read/write...

  Question: Its been long enough, I m facing some problem with my optical drive. Whenever I insert a CD that is originally made by any company, it works fine. At the time when I insert a CD that is personally burned with any normal CD data / engraver of DVD or CD that have been created previously by the same laptop mentioned above, its been interpreted as a blank disc. The data on the drive are not displayed.

  For example: lets say if I insert a cd of the software as my webcam cd or cd of my printer they can be read normally and work very well. But at the point where I have to enter any cd that was burned by me that contains my personal files, it is read as a blank disc.

  This problem does not exist with any of the DVDs. that is not serious every dvd I insert either being a software normal dvd or one that is burned as a given personal dvd, everything works fine and all the data DVD can be read.

  I tried to reinstall the driver, I tried to reformat my laptop using the supplied with the notebook Toshiba Recovery CD, but the problem persists.

  Between a few months ago, I tried to do a few tweak, as firstly I have insert the cd in the drive and then turn off the reader of cd and then allowing it once again would actually read the cd. But after a few tries, it also stopped working.

  Now I have really no idea what should I do to get my CD to work normally.

  I hope that this message can help out me.

  Your help will be appreciated

  Thanks for your precious time

  Christophe

  Hi Claudia,.

  To be honest, I never heard A785 Satellite.
  You should check the model number again, as wrote Akuma. It would be important to know.

  But in General if you have the same problems after using the Toshiba Recovery disk it seems to be a bad material work because the recovery disc can restore the factory settings.
