HARD drive is not recognized on the Satellite 2800 200

Hello

First of all, I'm Dutch so I hope that I do not have too many mistakes in my English writing.

I bought a 2800-200 Satellite at a friend's House. This laptop has a problem.
When it is started is says "insert the disk in the drive system. Press a key when readya?.

My bios is ACPI BIOS version 1.80
In Pheripheral in Bios it says disc hard = not used Mode.

On page two discs i/o: HARD drive: no drive.

I tried two hard drives and the two were not working and not recognized in the BIOS.
I have no CD of restoration.

My questions:

What kind of central computer has this laptop?
Can someone help me with the recovery CD?
What can I do to fix this?
How can I change my BIOS so that the HARD drive is recognized?

My hard drive is MK2023GAS and is not broken. There is nothing on this HARD drive.
But also with the disk hard 10 GB of origin, I had the same problem.

I hope you can help me and once again I apologize for my English.

Hello

I'll try to help you my friend.

> When it is started is says "insert the disk in the drive system. Press any key when ready
This message appeared on my laptop after the HARD disk is dead.
I had to replace the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

I guess that it of the same problem with your laptop. The HARD drive is not present or not recognized, and you will need to install a compatible HDD for the operation of the OS.

I have google a bit and discovered that this laptop comes with the 10 GB HARD MK1016GAP of Toshiba drive. It supports the interface ATA-2/ATA-3/ATA-4/ATA-5.

Please note that many BIOS have a limit of size of HARD drive. This means that not all HARD drive sizes are supported! I assume a 20 GB should be compatible, but this is just my own opinion
> How can I change my BIOS so that the HARD drive is recognized?
The BIOS can be modified outside the update (check page driver Toshiba-> Archive-> archive of Satellite).
But vary important is that you use a compatible HARD drive.

> Can someone help me with the recovery CD?
Don t know if you will be able to order this CD at the service provider allowed in your country, because the laptop is really an oldie. But you should ask the guys.
What you is to install the OS from the Microsoft CD-ROM and then could install drivers needed.

Greetings

  • Hard drive is not recognized in the BIOS - Equium A60

    Hi hope someone can help. I have a Toshiba Equium EA60-173 and the hard drive is not recognized in the BIOS. When I remove the hard drive and put it in another laptop it is detected fine. I also tried another hard drive in the Toshiba and that does not work either. So I suspect the IDE controller has disappeared, but can I do to confirm this? I wish there was an option in the BIOS to force detection. I updated the BIOS but still the same.

    This laptop is only just out of warranty, so if it is the controller would I need to replace the motherboard? Are there other options at my disposal?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Neil,

    Unless there is some physical\problem with the cable/connector hard drive, then it is most likely that you will have a new mainboard for your laptop. I suggest you to contact an authorized service partner and ask them to check your laptop and give you an estimate of the cost of the repair. Then you can try to shop for less expensive alternatives.

    Kind regards

    Hey,.

    I checked the Web from Toshiba site and it seems that you need RAID driver for install Windows properly. The driver is required to get recognized hard drives

    It seems that this driver is available for XP and 2000 only because the laptop is old enough, I think that Yes it doesn't support Vista or Windows 7 I think. You can only try the XP driver. If it doesn t work you must use the operating system preinstalled Toshiba were all working properly! :)

    I have a MacBook from 2008. 4 years ago I moved my iPhoto on an external hard drive. I have thousands if photos on it. IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times. Can someone help me?

    I moved my iPhoto on an external hard drive.

    Did you move the iPhoto library for the external hard drive or the iPhoto application, or both?

    How is formatted the external hard drive? Is the file system on the drive Mac OS extended (journaled) or other system files?  Is the drive directly connected by USB or similar, or is it a SIN?

    IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times.

    I don't understand - if you force quit smoking, launches the application, or you can not force it quit?

    IPhoto is suspended without doing anything, when you launch?

    What version of iPhoto does? And what version of Mac OS X?

    Hello Russell,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    With the publication of the description, I understand that the hard drive is not reflected in the list of disks on your Windows 7 operating system. I will certainly help you get this problem.

    This problem can occur because of incorrect settings. In order to solve the problem, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if this is useful:

    Method 1: Troubleshooting hardware and devices

    Integrated the hardware and devices troubleshooter can automatically detect and fix most of the incorrect settings and errors that could cause problems with the equipment. I suggest you run the troubleshooter to check if there is no problem with the graphics card. See albums as follows:

    1. open Control Panel

    2. click Troubleshooting and select the option to display all on the left pane.

    3. click Troubleshooting of hardware and devices and follow the prompts.

    Try Method 2, if the problem persists

    Method 2: Make sure that the drive is enabled

    Follow the below mentioned steps to make sure that the drive is enabled:

    1. click on start and type device manager in the search box

    2. click on Device Manager in the control panel list

    3 locate the drives item in the list, and then click the small arrow to the right to expand the list of readers

    If a disk is disabled you will see an icon with an arrow pointing down on the icon of the hard disk

    If you see an icon with an arrow pointing down on the hard drive icon, double-click the icon and click on the button Activate peripheral

    4 then click on activate a device dialog box, click Next, and then click on finish

    5. click Close, and then close the Device Manager window

    Note: If you do not see your hard drive in the listed readers, the player is not detected by Windows.

    Note: If you receive an error message when the hard disk is activated, you can have a bad hard drive.

    Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

  • New HARD drive is not recognized on Tecra M1

    Hello

    I am new to this forum, so apologies if this is an old question.

    My Tecra M1 gave a quality service for the past 6 years, but recently, the Toshiba management console has put a message saying that the HARD drive will fail quickly.

    I loaded immediately turned off my main files before you remove the HARD drive. It is a Toshiba MK6022gax 60 gig IDE hard drive. I bought a new disc of gigabytes of 60 MK6022gax, but when I mounted this same I got the error message "error ide #0". Installation XP or the BIOS can see this new record.

    I then reassembled the old HARD drive, which started OK. I then mounted the new disk in a USB enclosure, initialized, partitioned and quick formatted using the XP disk management. He picked up OK. Then I copied some files to it and read them back with no problems, then the drive itself works very well. But when I plug as the main 'C' drive, I get the error message again and is not recognized by the bios or XP put in place.

    Clearly, there is some BIOS (?) or startup procedure I have to do to get this recognized record. Help!

    I have Tecra M1 long with 60 GB HARD drive. Right now, I've updated compatible HDD TOSHIBA HDD 2184 B.
    I can confirm that the HARD drive is recognized correctly and I actually have the new install of WXP Pro.

    In any case, have you tried to upgrade the BIOS to the default settings?
    As far as I know that nothing should be set before you put the new HARD drive and it must be recognized correctly.

  • New 500 GB HARD drive is not recognized correctly

    What is happening, I replaced the drive HARD than Go 150 original after about 18 months, again, now a year later, that the drive seems to have died too, so I bought a new seagate 500 GB drive HARD for it, the BIOS said it s it, but vista CD dies just when it is trying to install, CD WXP can t see the drive at all, but I expected that when WXP is older , but Vista I expected to work.

    So here's the thing, I put the new HARD drive in my desktop PC and he found in the BIOS no worries, then I started the Vista CD and again no probs, Vista installed without worries, then I put the HARD drive in the lappy and once again he can t read it, so it s not a Vista thing , it seems that it s the lappy itself

    Is this a problem with the Toshiba BIOS, or is it a physical problem where the Toshiba is struggling in reading ANY player?

    It s driving me crazy.

    And what model of laptop do you have?

    Generally upgrade HARD drive should not be a problem. I assume that your laptop's HARD drive with SATA interface and I sure you bought the right of Mr. I've upgraded or because of the experiences on several laptops equipped new hard disks and all of them were still properly recognized and I was able to install original Toshiba Recovery (recovery DVD) on this subject image.

    Maybe you have an older model A200 and perhaps he has some compatibility issues with new hard disks. I will be 100% sure works perfectly with HARD drive up to 300 or 400 GB maybe.

    Do you use Toshiba Recovery for the Vista installation disc or original disc of Microsoft?

    BTW: WXP is unclear due to lack of driver SATA HARD drive.

  • My HARD drive is not recognized by my PC (it was previously connected to a MacBook)

    Hello

    I plugged my WD HDD (model WD2500ME-01) to a Black MacBook and it was recognized as a 'Time Machine' drive.
    Now I plug it to my PC (Windows XP Home Edition) and the drive is not recognized, no 'letter' is not assigned to the player. Drive HARD watch as "healthy (protection GPT Partition) under 'computer management' window and I can't assign a letter on the HARD disk."
    I don't want to format the drive, I just need to save some files to it (a few concerts info).
    I was told that the use of a "Data Disc Recovery Tool" that reads the GPT Partitions will help me.
    Is there a way to 'Windows' to save the files?

  • Art of STOR E external 1.5 TB hard drive is not recognized by Vista

    I have a HARD drive that I brought in Europe, it was working fine and all of a sudden when I turn it on, is now telling me one of the devices USB has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize.

    I can hear the HDD spining, and you can feel the playhead to move when you turn it on, would that be a driver or a firmware issue?

    I have a lot of backup data about it as I can't afford to lose, then it would remove and put it directly into my computer to see if I can read it?

    > I can hear the HDD spining, and you can feel the playhead to move when you turn it on, would that be a driver or a firmware issue?

    You can try to connect to any other computer external HARD drive. If it would not then he s seems to be hardware problem.
    Of course, it is s to connect the HARD drive directly to a HARD drive controller to see if the BIOS recognizes the HARD drive maybe it would be your last resort
