Forgotten password - Satellite L300 1AQ

* Please help * -.

I forgot my administrator password I put to stop my brother playing with my computer.
Can someone tell me - if I do a reinstall from the recovery disks that I made when I got my laptop I'll be able to set a new password and leave?

What restore to factory settings - will get rid of the password, so I can start over?
My laptop is 1AQ L300 Satellite.

Thank you.

Sorry for the question but what password you mean exactly. the Windows admin password or BIOS password.

If you mean the BIOS password, then I ve bad new for you; only EPA was able to remove the BIOS password.

If you are which means that the windows admin password, then you need to reinstall the operating system again to get access to the operating system.
Usually, you could boot from the recovery disc or after a short period the BONE would be installed and you'd get the laptop with the settings. As on the first day of purchase

  • Satellite L300-1AQ - 9 Will stack need more space?

    Hi someone Genius!

    Please can you convert my confusion. My current battery is a unit of 6 in Satellite L300-1AQ. It became dead and hard to sustain for 30 minutes. I decided to replace it and ordered a new 9-cell PA3535U-1BRS battery. Now I am confused like the battery 6 cells is placed inside the rear body frame, battery 9-cell enters this model of laptop even compatibility describes it's OK for my laptop? So should I believe this Declaration of compatibility of Toshiba and stop worrying how my new battery 9 cells will welcome in the space of 6 cell battery?

    Cheers in advance and thank you for your confirmtion.

    Hello

    Yes, probably the battery 9cell need more space under or behind your laptop battery 6 cells, but it should be.

    With battery 9-cell, your laptop will get more high, in my view, it will look like on [THIS | http://cdn.slashgear.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/msi_wind_9-cell_battery_1.jpg] a

  • Can satellite L300-1AQ - I use the L300D recovery disk?

    My son has a Satellite L300-1AQ equipped of vista. All of a sudden will load is more the laptop and automatic repair options fails too. There is a blue screen that appears, but only for a second when I try the repair option - then the laptop stops. We have no recovery disks.

    Also, I have a laptop Satellite L300D-13 s that works well and suppose I could get a drive recovery- but prob diff drivers etc.

    Can someone advise me how best to my sons laptop (Im not concerned about retrieving data as all saved already), but do not want to return to the factory settings including Vista. Do not know if using a laptop recovery disk is an option - instinctively is not as ever as simple as that.

    All advice welcome please.

    Hi mate,

    I can t imagine that the Satellite L300D recovery disc will work on Satellite L300. The hardware platform is different, because a single machine is equipped with Intel CPU and the other with AMD processor, so there's a big difference.

    In addition, in the worst case, it could be a hardware problem and in this case the recovery disk does not work

    What can you do now? I think you have to options: either you install Vista from a disk of Microsoft or order you a Toshiba Recovery disk: https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    After installing the Microsoft disc, you can download all the drivers on the Toshiba site. Then you will also get back to factory settings, but it takes more time in the recovery disk because it contains an image which already all the drivers and tools are included/installed.

    I hope I could help a bit. :)

    As I see it, * Toshiba Hdd recovery * does not solve your problem. You checked with the other memory, but it always freeze. so, I guess that a hard drive can be a troublemaker. If your laptop is still under warranty, you should contact them (SAV)

  • Satellite L300-1AQ - microphone picks up all sounds

    Hello

    I installed windows 7 on Satellite L300-1AQ. everything seems to be in order except for the microphone? It captures all the sounds. I use Skype, a large part of the time. Someone had pulled in a solution for this? I see it's a pretty common problem following a search on google but still it doesn't seem to be a definitive solution. I paid up the microphone up to 100 and 40 dB in its settings, but when I try to record sounds that he came back only with nothing.

    Thank you

    Hi Dermotsull,

    Have you installed most recent the the official website of Toshiba webcam driver?

    I ask this question because the microphone is part of webcam and so this driver must be installed correctly.
    In addition, I would recommend updating the audio driver. You can find it on the Web from Toshiba site too.

  • Satellite L300-1AQ connection to Toshiba Regza 37 '' LCD AV series 37AV505DB

    I think buying the Satellite L300-1AQ, how will I be able to connect to my Toshiba Regza 37 '' LCD?

    The LCD has no HDMI VGA port only 2, is a Toshiba laptop equipped with an HDMI port?
    What is the most cost-effective way on the connection of all laptops Toshiba to my LCD TV?

    Thanks for your help...

    Hello

    AFAIK the L300-1AQ supports only RGB (VGA port) port.
    This port provides only the analog signal and I doubt that you will be able to connect to the HDMI port because you cannot convert an analog signal into a digital signal.

    I put t know the other ports that is supported by the Toshiba Regza LCD 37 ", but I think that in this case, the HDMI port is not useful.

  • Starting problems on Satellite L300-1AQ - BOOTMGR is missing

    I just tried to install AVG on my laptop.

    I then tried to update, but he told me he couldn't connect to the AVG homepage, so I tried to restart my internet connection but still no luck so I thought I'd re - boot my laptop but it does not load and I get a message saying "BOOTMGR is missing Press CTRL + ALT + DEL to restart" I go to the Boot Manager menu , Choose to boot from the HARD drive, but it just guard doing the same thing over and over again.

    The model is Satellite L300-1AQ ideas?

    Update

    Ive just to speak to the Technical Department of Toshiba & because I had not got round to create backup discs he's going to charge me A £30 to provide me with new ones.

    Is there a way to get around this?

    Post edited by: MrSketch

    It s your fault if you didn't create a clean recovery disk.

    On the Toshiba laptop, you will find a Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool that allows you to create the own recovery disk.
    But if you are not able to boot into the OS, so you cannot create this disc.

    Check if you can start the recovery of HARD drive option;
    You must press F8 immediately after the laptop by pressing the power button.
    Then, you should get a menu and should choose the first option called fix my computer.

    But if this menu does not appear, then you will not be able to start the HARD drive recovery and that means you must order a recovery disc to make it work again.

    Good bye

  • Updated by Satellite L300-1AQ and Win7 - a few questions

    Sorry will try this again as my original thread does not appear anywhere.

    I have a Satellite L300-1AQ and only got their hands on the disks to upgrade Toshiba Windows 7 - Vista Home Premium to Win 7 HP.

    Can I really use this to perform a new installation of Win 7 64 bit?

    That made the other disk in the pair actually? Is it fair pilots or it installs cr@pware too?

    Thank you.

    This is a very useful document for you > http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9902P60000R01.htm

    You will get two discs: composite discs and upgrade.
    Start your laptop and place the composite disc and follow the on-screen menu. I think that you won't have more problems to understand how it works.

    New installation? I don't know if this will work but noted that after a new installation, you will not have the activation code valid and you'll probably version only 30 days. key down will not help you for regular activation.

    Hello

    The left button touchpad on my laptop has stopped working properly and does not correctly seated.
    The button hinge seems disintegrated. Where can I get spare parts?

    The model is a Satellite L300-1AQ and is only 27 months old and is slightly used - surely, laptop Toshiba computers are designed to last longer than that...

    Hey Buddy,

    I agree with Timox. The best place for spare parts here an authorized service provider because they can order all the parts of Toshiba and make you a good offer.

    In your case, I recommend you guys and ask for assistance and how much it would cost, etc. Here is their list:

  • Satellite L300-1AQ - compatible L450-11V charger?

    I have a laptop Satellite L300-1AQ supplied with a charger PA3468E-1AC3. I recently bought a laptop L450-11V supplied with a charger PA3715E-1AC3.

    Does anyone know what are the differences between these chargers as they both have the same output voltage and the rated current, and they will damage my laptop is exchanged?

    Hi panetony,

    If the two Chargers have the same output voltage and amps you can use it, of course.

    Only the exact voltage is important but no problem to a higher intensity.

  • Satellite L300-1AQ - password utility and the Firmware installation problem

    Hello

    I recently reinstalled Vista after the first crash, then installation of linux.

    Utility password displays the serial number is not correct.
    do not understand why these error messages come and how I can deal with that.

    Hello

    Firmware update should only be done if you notice problems with the ODD (CD/DVD drive)
    In addition the laptop was equipped with various drives and firmware on the Toshiba page seems to be designed only for some some sides.
    So if the laptop uses other ODD then the update of the firmware would not be supported.
    See more information on the driver page for some details on the update firmware and what are the chances are supported!

    I m not very well why the t supervisor password utility could not be installed, but I think that the message: bad series appears that if you tried to install a tool that was not designed for this model of laptop or the operating system.

    The L300-1AQ seems to belong to the series PSLB8E and you must ensure that you have chosen the right model on the driver page.

    PS: don't forget that the VAP has been installed everything first!

    But when I go to connect it just happens like windows cannot connect to my netgear Wireless association failed because windows did not receive response from the access point or wireless router.

    Hello

    The problem may be the router itself. Restart your router and try to connect again. If the WIFI network is encrypted be sure to use the right WIFI password.
    If nothing helps, please contact your internet provider. Make sure your router is good configuration.

  • Satellite L300-1AQ - how much of the necessary recovery discs?

    Dear all

    I would like to know how many drives recovery requires my laptop L300-1AQ (model number PSLB8E).

    I have a disc I made when I bought the computer but I can't start using up to this I make sure that only the disk is necessary (if more than one disk is needed and I begin the process of recovery, I believe that I have will make the computer unusable). I know that recent Toshibas are delivered with several DVDs so it certainly worth my checking before doing anything.

    Oh and the recovery partition is gone due to an 'aggressive' installation of linux, so this isn't an option for us (it's the new user is a windows user).

    I cannot find this information on the internet or in the manual, so I would be grateful if anyone out there has this information.

    Best wishes to all

    Hi DiodePrridge51b,

    Possibly 1 drive only Toshiba recovery disc creator, you need only 1 recovery disk to restore to factory settings.

    It s, always according to the model laptop and OS how many records you need, but if only 1 disc was required there s enough and begin the installation of recovery. :)
