  Hello

  You mean put how much you bought your computer when it was new?

  You will need to backup all your data, but unfortunately, the programs you have installed will need to be reinstalled from the original media that they came on (CD, etc.).

  Please read these methods to reinstall Vista:

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Satellite A100-999: the process of recovery (without recovery DVD/CD)?

  Hi all

  Here is my GOAL: I want to reinstall the original Windows Vista as it was when we bought this laptop.

  My PROBLEM: we never managed to create recovery DVDs (just after the purchase), always gave an error... today and to my surprise, I can't find any operating system recovery tool is...

  1. to the power of power off: I tried the button "0" (as read on the internet), but did nothing special...

  2 - I tried then in the options menu (after F8 on reboot): FIX YOUR COMPUTER
  Then (after choosing the Spanish language and the connection as a user), I tried to launch the WINDOWS RESTORE COMPLETE lo, but he said that no CD/DVD... (no current number with this = CD/DVD drive works fine)

  3 - I then tried another interesting option: RECOVERY HHD (more or less like this, as I have in Spanish version)... Just a pop-up open (maybe on the DVD recovery) but without any touch of the process...

  More complicated now, isn't?

  4 INFO:
  I could find the hidden partition and display it. It contains files and folders: a record 'source', 'boot.sdi"if I remember correctly... and maybe more...
  => I copied on a USB key and registered on a new DVD (and the image.iso of them as well) and repeat points 2 and 3 above, but nothing has changed... (the content of this DVD is read without problem on another laptop)

  => QUESTIONS:
  -This folder and files (found in the hidden partition) means that the recovery is still here?
  -Are there a special file.exe or the procedure to follow in order to be able to launch these files found?
  (my ultimate last chance: order than the recovery CD of Toshiba, if it is still possible)

  Thanks in advance
  S.

  > I understand now that these files (hidden partition) are those used for the display of this special menu (after you click REPAIR MY COMPUTER) with the COMPLETE WINDOWS RESTORE, RECOVERY HHD...

  > Is that correct?

  No, the small hidden partition is created by the Windows system, and these aren't the recovery disc files.
  Toshiba Recovery disk files are placed (in general) on the D partition, it is not hidden.

  > So I guess I should have a COLLECTION case somewhere... but I read in some messages of this type of comment: 'the series A100 not fitted the HARD drive recovery partition ".

  That could be just because the A100 is old series and drive HARD recovery was not available at the moment
  As far as I know the series A200 and new series were equipped with recovery option.

  > If not available, I'm already so on this last-chance-step explained above? This means to order the DVD of recovery on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  Here is the link to the page where you can order a recovery for the EU Toshiba notebook disk series but I don't very well if you'll be able to order this disc don't due to the age of the laptop of m.

• Satellite A105-S361 without recovery DVDs

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Satellite A105-S361 and now I have discovered that I do not have the recovery DVD and I don't have the possibility to recreate the DVD recovery my HD was formatted once.

  How can I solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance,

  Claudio...

  Hello

  I don't know where you come from, but AFAIK the Satellite A105-S361 was designed and delivered to the United States. It seems that this laptop is an American unit.
  Generally, it is possible to order recovery at the Toshiba service partner media but I don't know about the U.S. market.
  But I think you should ask the AEP from Toshiba in your country for these media. In my opinion, it should be possible to order this CD.

• I have a virus that cannot be deleted. I want to reformat the drive, but I don't know how to clean my computer. Will this remove the virus, or simply write about it? also is there a way to erase and start over.

  Windows has identified a virus that cannot be deleted. reformatting will solve this problem? also wiping my own comouter solve this problem or just to write about it. Is there an online tool to clean my computer... more, after that how do I reinstall windows

  Try AVG and Avast free programs to find and fix the problem. In the future, these two will warn you if the malware is a download.  If this does not work, try the highjackthis program.  It will save a log that can be used by sites for free assistance to correct your problem.

  I would NEVER erase the hard drive!  I've been SP since its release and have have 60 programs on my computer.

• How to make a picture of Recovery DVD for my Satellite A200 - 1 GB?

  Hi Experts,

  As I have written before that I divided my 2nd HARD drive partitions in to 2partitions.

  Now, I want to make a DVD of recovery unless the manufacturer provided DVD.

  The reason I want it is the said USER MANUAL when we restore the provided manufacturer DVD it will FORMAT all Partitions and restore the HARD drive to the original state (when he come there two partitions).

  So now, I'm doing a recovery DVD to recover the laptop with on the FORMATTING of the second partitions.
  I just want to format only C drive and install the Vista operating system and other software manufacturer provided.
  Then other readers will be safe and data on these partitions will be safe.

• 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 Pro 2100; How to get additional software without recovery CD?

  How can I get the software WinDVD and Drag'n Drop CD for my Satellite Pro 2100 without the recovery disk?

  Post edited by: yirms

  This is not possible because this additional software is not available on the download page of Toshiba why?
  Because this isn't a Toshiba Software, but software manufacturers, 3rd party.
  This software comes with the recovery disc and can only be used with your laptop!

  I think it has something to do with licensing issues
