• Satellite A300 1J1 - Recovery Mode "Expert" to change the size of the partition

  I'm trying to reconfigure the size of the partition of windows with the recovery partitions as I don't like the idea of having the poit drive 50-50.

  I would like therefore to reduce it so that only the data of recovery will be adapted on the D drive and my main partition will be much greater. IE C: = 240 GB + and the recovery drive (d) will be only 5 GB (large enough for recovering data only.)

  I posted this thread here a few days ago.

  [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=132571𠗛]

  This and the search of these forums has gotten me to the point where I think I need to use the DVD of recovery in "EXPERT" mode This should allow me to set the partitions manually rather than automatically right in the Middle!

  I noticed that the screen asking me what to install has a SETTINGS option that is always grayed out.

  Does anyone know how to open the SETTINGS screen, or if there is another way to create the partitions manually?

  Thanks for any response.

  Hello

  I have already replied to the other thread (see the link in your message)

  The point is that you cannot resize partitions using the Vista Toshiba Recovery DVD.

  Mentioned Expert mode is not available in the Vista recovery DVDs.
  The expert mode is part of the Win XP Recovery CD.

  However, the fact is that the Vista recovery DVDs sets the laptop to factory settings and also the size of the partition.

  The sizes of the partitions can be modified in the Vista Disk Manager!

  Good bye

• Options recovery system and satellite A300-1J1

  Hello

  I was wondering if anyone knows how to recover the Satellite A300-1J1. My laptop has Windows Vista family premium, I'm not too sure about the number of 'bits' because the sticker at the bottom of my laptop is faded. My serial number is 8811896Q.

  I closed my laptop and when I tried to leave, he places the next morning it said 'unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. Then it goes to the screen that says ' System Recovery Options: could not start the installed program. " Click OK to turn off the computer.

  Does anyone know how to recover my laptop without having to waste (wipe) all data currently on it, such as the documents windows etc. ?
  Thank you

  > Does anyone know how to recover my laptop without having to waste (wipe) all data currently on it, such as the documents windows etc. ?
  In the past, we discussed very often on this theme. In any case, it works this way:
  -When you use recovery DVD for the installation of the OS all disk is deleted including data on all partitions
  -If you use HARD drive recovery option only C partition is deleted and all data saved on the second partition will always be there
  So please try installation of recovery of HARD drive following the instructions of the Toshiba document.

• Satellite A300-1J1: cannot use F8 to start the HARD drive recovery process

  I just brought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300-1j1, and at the same time got the upgrade to Vista Ultimate disk at the same time.

  Straight out I went to a sweet upgrade to Ultimate, which failed, and restored in Premuim laptop.

  Stupidly I immediately then a hard install to ultimate who "worked", but of course the drivers to run the laptop has not been installed, I decided to go back to factory settings and try to get Ultimate again once.

  However to use F8 at startup is does not give me the option to restore, and since, I've learned that I should do a set of recovery discs, which I did not.

  Installation, the data is still on the disk 'E', so is anyway I can always use it to make these discs or what should I do?

  Thank you for your help,

  Ian

  > .and since then, I learned that I should do a set of recovery discs, which I did not.
  It's your biggest mistake.
  > Installation, data are still on the 'E' drive, is it so in any way I can still use it to make these discs or what should I do?
  There is nothing you can do to create recovery DVDs. If you want to have the original recovery DVD you must buy it.

• Satellite A300-1J1 - does not recognize the CD key

  Hi all, after 3 days of searching for any type of information I've found this site and I hope that someone can help me.

  I have a Satellite A300-1J1, and had to do a complete reinstall of Windows using my recovery disk that was provided with the laptop (Vista Home Premium).
  In any case, the installation went well and he had restarted and said I had to activate Windows is not a problem, I thought looked under laptop for key typed in there and it will not recognize the CD as being for Vista Premium key. Now how is that possible that the disc that came with the laptop and the CD key is there?

  Any help is greatly appreciated

  Hello Shaun

  I know it may seem stupid now, but your story is somewhat strange. Why?
  To the first Satellite A300 laptop computers are never shipped with recovery DVDs. Recovery DVDs must be created by the owner of the laptop. All A300 laptop come with what is called HARD disk image. AFAIK some A300 laptop computers come with an additional CD/DVD but it is recovery of Windows XP Home or Vista 64-bit edition, but laptop always comes with Vista Home Premium 32 - bit (recovery of HARD drive image).

  So the question is what installation media you are using exactly? Is - this support recovery, that you created yourself or a version of Microsoft?
  Original Toshiba recovery image is created for each laptop model separately and should not be enabled.

  Recovery image can not be downloaded. If you want to have another copy, you must order it under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

• Satellite A300-1J1 - keeps cutting out

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300-1J1 - bought 2 years ago, and recently it keeps cutting.

  For example, it is used to cut everything by playing games like the Sims 3, which is understandable, because it may be overheating. A few months ago I started to put my laptop on 3 staggered of CD cases so there was more than one inch of space under the laptop to allow air circulation.

  These days the laptop was put on, get to the office and go directly to the output. When I reboot it, she suggests to do recovery etc, what I've done. I am currently running Windows Vista Home Edition; There was an update for windows on the laptop recently, that when I tried to install, the Office has frozen, then cut.

  The laptop feel more heated, and I've even switch it on with nothing else anyone below. I use now the laptop of my partner so I can find some solutions!

  I tried to run the laptop in safe mode, but again, it reached just the office. My aunt borrowed my laptop last week and said she found when she moved to the screen and held it in a certain position, he remained more.

  Any ideas or help would be really appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  The laptop stops automatically even after the new installation of the OS. Is this good?
  Well, indeed, it seems that the laptop would be closed due to the higher temperature
  First of all the notebook s modules cooling must be cleaned.
  I mean there might be some dust and debris that prevent fans turn faster.

  I clean my laptop at any time with a jet of compressed air
  Also if you would not notice any improvement, then verification of memory must be the best way to verify that the memory is the use of software called memtest86 +.

  Of course, laptop must also be checked by a qualified technician if nothing would be useful

• Satellite A300-1J1 - Vista does not start, a lot of corrupted files

  My PC (toshiba satellite A300 1J1) suffered some random freezes for the past month. A few days ago it froze so I restarted and it could not start. He got as far as the scrolling green bar under the name of microsoft and then progress any more. I tried to start it in all different modes but without prevail. I tried to do a system restore, but it can't find any restore point, or all the files to reset to factory specifications.

  The hard drive works as I could locate all my files via the command prompt. When I run the check disk tool it says many files are unreadable, so I want to reset the PC but can't due to lack of points on each side of the partioned reset disk.

  My PC came with no recovery disk and I fear that in the past, I accidentally deleted file recovery on the HARD drive. What can I do? will be Toshiba sent me disks so I ask them or I have to wipe the drive and buy windows 7 as a last resort?

  > will be Toshiba sent me disks so I ask them or I have to wipe the drive and buy windows 7 as a last resort?

  No, dude, it won't send you free and you must order for money https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx you can also install Win copy yourself if you get the windows disk.

• Questions about pratitions by Satellite A300 HDD & recovery

  Hi all

  I m planning to buy the new model laptop Satellite A300 - 1 GR for my work.
  But I found that there is a problem. Many users face when dealing with laptop in general which is the removal of the partition when you use recovery disk to any operating system failure & lose data out there on other readers.
  So what I want is a solution that makes me able to track:

  1 have several drives C, D, E, etc.
  2 - the operating system is on the C drive & my work on other data
  3. in the case of any problem or failure in the operating system, I can format the entire disk C: & install another OS on it without any deletion or modification on other readers that my data stored on
  4 - ability to install different operating system like Windows Vista, XP or Linux s

  I just want just my new laptop to be like my desktop (Full controlled by me) PC

  Best regards

  Hey Buddy

  Will try to provide a little light on the case ;)

  The A300 is equipped with the function of HARD drive recovery. This means that you can recover the laptop without the DVD of the OS.
  The installation will start from the HARD drive.
  Of course, there is a possibility to create a Toshiba Recovery DVD using a preinstalled Toshiba disc creator.
  After the creation of DVD de Toshiba Recovery you can format the whole HARD drive and delete all partitions (if you want).

  Up to now, we come to the point that you have requested;

  The whole HARD disk will be formatted (also partitions) If you want to use the Toshiba Recovery DVD.
  Why? I think that the recovery DVDs was designed for one purpose; parameters of the laptop back to the factor settings.
  And this is what the recovery DVDs. It sets everything to its original state.

  So, if you want to keep your data on the other partition, then you shouldn't use the Toshiba Recovery DVD but an original disc of Microsoft Windows OS.

  In addition he s always advisable to back up the data on an example external HARD drive.
  Then it would be no problem to recover the data on the laptops HDD.

  See you soon

• Satellite A300-1J1 fails to connect WIFI

  I have a Satellite A300 1J1, purchased in September which I use in college.
  At home I have Virgin Broadband and my laptop is easily connected to it.
  When I get home I can not connect to broadband home.
  I put in all the correct passwords (it uses 3com) but my phone just crash log.
  It is not the home network, because my brothers laptop computer running smoothly at home. The problem is my laptop.

  I could buy a separate connect package and a dongle, but it seems stupid when I should be able to connect automatically.

  Can someone tell me what I could do to please which is not too difficult technically?

  Hello

  You should first check if your wireless network card has been recognized and properly installed.
  I noticed that in very rare cases the WLan driver was not installed correctly and there was a yellow exclamation point next to the WLan card.

  The WLan driver correctly installed is essential to connect the laptop wireless.

• How to connect my Satellite A300-1J1 to HD TV

  Hello

  I have a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A300-1J1 (who doesn't have a HDMI) & just Toshiba XV551D 40 '' HD tv. You want to be able to connect the laptop to the tv with the best possible picture quality, a DVI to HDMI cable would be better than the monitor standard 15pin cable external monitor/TV?

  My laptop has an IEEE1394 Jack, I presume it's the same as a DVI plug? (I could be wrong tho!) Also read the manual of the TV, he said unless I connect HDMI to HDMI, I would need a separate audio cable?

  Looking to buy all the necessary cables rather than go shopping online so please advise as soon as possible, I want to make sure I get correct leads of the judgment.

  And my apologies if I seem thick lol.

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  First, please note that the VGA port provides the analog signal.

  It s is NOT possible to convert the analog signal into digital signal! You can convert a digital signal to analog but the analog to digital is not possible and will not work with HD TV.
