• URGENT! Cannot start from the HP recovery discs.

  I am facing a problem weired with the help of HP recovery disks (ordered from HP).
  HP drives are bootable, I checked on another desktop not HP. My Pavilion cannot boot from HP discs, but it starts on the other Windows 7 bootable disk. Even this drive gives me the error to the expansion of the files windows to 52%. It says failed to load the driver for the drive and asks me to select the drivers, so I inserted the disc Driver from HP, but it says nothing found.

  I tried to use HP discs after, whole HARD drive then create 100 MB system reserved partition (NTFS), 100 GB NTFS for the C drive for installation of Win; but still no luck. After selecting CD/DVD in the start menu, the continuous cursor to blink on the left corner for a few 10s of seconds and the system reboots without any messages.

  When I tried with Linux Mint 14 KDE startup disk, it installed smoothly without any mistakes and right now, I'm using Linux.

  So this is a strange problem where I can't decide what thing is defective; If my reader DVD, DVD or my Pavilion. But all work to differnet scenarios. Please suggest a solution if you know.

  Help, please!

  Thank you!

• Cannot start from the CD in my Satellite P300-23F

  Hello

  I'm trying to fix the old laptop from my brother. It's a Toshiba satellite p300-23f. The laptop did not work well, so he bought another. I think he might have a problem with the HARD drive, but I'm not sure about this and want to try to format the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

  When I start from the disc HARD I have no problem, insiders of OS normally, and I can 'use' laptop. The problem is when I try to boot from the OS CD. I get this message "Media test failure, check cable". I know the CD works, because recently I have instaled the operating system with this CD on another computer. I know that the CD player (not sure if it is called like this, but I think you understand what I mean) also works very well, because I tried different CD and it worked.

  I've tried pressing F12 and boot from CD it and also tried to change the BIOS and put the CD in the first place, but it does not work.

  No idea what's going on? Is it possible to make it work?

  Stand by.
  When Windows is completely loaded, you can use the optical disk drive and it reads all CDs and DVDs?
  When you put your Windows Windows installation disc can see the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer?

  Maybe you can use the CD but not DVD. check it out please.

• Re: Satellite L310 - cannot start from the HARD disk

  Hello

  My L310 just died on me yesterday. My system just can not start, not even in Safe Mode. And it keeps trying to start using my network card, not through hard drive.

  I put the BIOS default settings, but it does not help.

  And she has this tone to loud continuous beep when it tries to start using the network card. A continuous beep, even on the screen of the BIOS and in safe mode.

  I chose the hard drive manually, but he keeps trying to start through the network adapter.

  And the laptop does not meet the keyboard. Even with a keyboard external usb. When I sometimes managed to boot my system on the rare occasion, I get to the login screen and cannot button my password.

  Does anyone have similar problems?

  Let me know. Thank you!

  Looks like your HARD drive is defective. BIOS recognize it?
  You should test the disk with Drive Fitness Test. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT

  Check this box and give us feedback. Maybe the HARD drive needs to be replaced.

  On the keyboard issue it is not easy to say what are the causes of the problem, but in the worst case that he should be replaced also. :(

What happens if I put in shape all-> them my disk partition (up to drive local C will remove a part of windows and it will colapse...) then will probably be to boot from the CD?

  The hard drive on my Portege M205-S810 doctors went belly up recently and I replaced it for her.
  When she could not find the external CD drive provided with the machine, I bought what I thought, it was a CD/DVD external Toshiba.

  Readers of original equipment bit that I found online were ridiculously expensive.
  I found one on Ebay for $55. Should have known it was too good to be true.

• Cannot start from the CD on Satellite L10

  Hi, I had several problems during the last two weeks with my Toshiba laptop. I decided to back up all my files and use the recovery disk to erase everything. I put in the disc and then changed the BIOS so that the CD/DVD drive was the first. (I hope, Toshiba L10 and "Utilities" CD series tools, is the right disc)

  It just loaded windows as normal and I can not seem to get the startup disk. If you have any advice for me please answer as soon as possible.

  Thanks in advance :) Ashley

  You must find the Toshiba Recovery CD. On this CD, you will find the image completely with Windows and all Toshiba drivers and utilities.
  From this CD you must boot to install the new OS.

  Other CDs contain only the software, drivers and utilities you can find on the page of the Toshiba driver.

• Satellite L300 - 16L: bootmgr image is corrupt. the system cannot start

  Bootmgr image is corrupt. the system cannot start

  Why is this?

  Have we lost all files etc on the laptop?

  Its a Toshiba L300 - 16L 'versatile Base '.

  Any help would be great - thanks

  Wayne

  Well, the system on the HARD drive seems to be corrupted.
  Who knows why, but it happens sometimes, it s nothing unusual and, therefore, it s always recommended to backup the data always

  The files are not lost, but you are not able to start the unit.

  What you can do?
  Well, you can grab the laptop again.
  By using the HARD drive recovery option (press F8, repair my computer, drive HARD recovery) or by using the recovery disk

  But this will format the HARD drive and you will lose data.
  If you want to get access to the data, I recommend booting of live CD WinPE and BartPE.

  Google for more details...
