  Hello!

  First of all, you should check the user manual. There you can find all the details on how to recover a Toshiba laptop.

  In any case, if your laptop came without recovery disk you can create one using the Toshiba recovery disc creator. That's why you need one or two DVDs and then you have factory on a DVD.
  If you created the recovery disk, you can boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. Windows will be reinstalled, and you get back to factory settings.

  But you can also recovery a Toshiba laptop without recovery disk. So go to the F8 advanced boot menu and choose fix my computer. Now, you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option and follow the instructions on the screen.

• 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 A300 - how to recover the operating system without a recovery disk?

  First of all, sorry for my very bad English.

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300, PC 9 months ago. I had problems with a virus and result is that despite clean-up and disinfection, the computer is still infected and I refused access to the hard drives and regedit.

  I thought restoring the operating system factory preinstaled (hopefully, this is the solution and not the formatting) and Barrie told me to check out http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

  I did it, but the PC it's imposible because there is no files. I don't have a rescue CD (if newbee).

  What can I do?

  Hello

  Usually the A300 (European series) has been equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would be you allows to recover the laptop using the files on the HARD drive. But if this is not possible while something went wrong with the maybe HDD it s due to the infection by the virus

  In any case if you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive you need the recovery disc.
  You can order it as suggested by resident on the other hand, you can use the MS Windows Vista disk and can download driver Toshiba page.

  L30 being a little older, I doubt that you can order the recovery disk

• The Satellite A100 created recovery, but DVD does not start

  I'm trying to reload a Satellite A100 with the DVD that was created when I started the laptop when he bought the news of recovery 11 months ago.

  I changed the boot order so that the DVD is first and when you restart, the drive runs at high speed, so it works

  No option is presented to be able to boot from this drive (as the usual "press a key to reboot from DVD")

  If I press F8 when booting I get a list of the options-led FIX YOUR COMPUTER that is highlighted.
  I then press ENTER and get a message "Windows is loading files".
  The system recovery options are then displayed, keyboard, layout, then the opening of the session, what I do using an administrator account.
  I am then presented with a screen with 6 system recovery options
  -Startup Repair
  -System restore - restore to an earlier point in time
  -Restoration of Windows complete PC (from backup)
  -Windows memory diagnostic
  -Command Promt
  -Restoriing the full Windows operating system

  There are 2 buttons {color: #000000} * low _S_hut * {color} and * _R_estart *.

  When I select the last option all I get is another screen with the message
  The complete oprtating of Windows System Restore *.

  If the pre-installed files are damaged you can use the product Recvoery DVD - Rom to restore (which is what I'm trying to do)
  A caveat against the loss of data is also included and then the OK button which, when clicked on resturns me to the previous screen without action
  If I select shutdown or restart it's there for that and boots from the hard drive.
  The disc is not damaged, I can copy him on system, then one more

  Can someone tell me how to start and recover from this drive?

  Hello

  Sorry, but you have misunderstood something. I'll try to be clear now:

  -Via recovery CD/DVD, you CAN NOT repair already preinstalled the operating system. Using Recovery CD/DVDs, you can make clean OS install only. Please note that, prior to installation, the procedure begins old BONE is removed.
  -Reading your ad, I think that you try to use Microsoft Vista of origin and not the recovery image options because when you start the recovery procedure is no different 6 menus

  Can you please tell me what is the problem with your Satellite A100? What are the files that you are trying to fix? What happens at the start of your laptop?

• How to recover the Satellite A10?

  I have a Satellite A10.
  After insering the recovery disc 1 a tab instead of tab C. Now I'm back and I have no idea how to do to return to my homepage or drive D to continue the recovery. I have no idea how to use BACK.

  Hello

  To be honest I m a bit confused
  The recovery procedure is very easy and you n t need to do anything in the BACK.

  In order to recover the laptop, you will need to boot from the recovery disc and should follow the instructions on the screen.

  Satellite A10 series is old and the recovery procedure is different in the new procedure, but you should certainly receive some messages how product

  I recommend repeat get back again;
  Put the right recovery disk in the drive and boot from the CD by pressing the C key. You can use F12 and then you may choose the CD/DVD drive in the boot menu

• Re: How to recover the Satellite L30-10s?

  How can - I make my satellite L30-10 s to exit the restore box settings?

  Hello

  I think that HDD recovery isn't possible since this is a very old notebook and I guess for this series, HARD drive recovery were not available.

  So you have only one option to retrieve the computer laptop back to factory settings: you need the recovery disc.
  If you n t have this disk, you will not be able to put the computer laptop back to factory settings. I think that its no longer possible to order the recovery disk because of the age of the laptop.

  So what to do?
  You can use only a clean installation of Microsoft disk in order to install the system.
  The essential drivers or tolls are available on the page of the Toshiba UE driver.

• How to install Vista on Satellite A300 without recovery disk?

  Please, I desperately need help.

  My brother bought a new Toshiba A300-23F in Saudi Arabia. He has little knowledge of computers.
  It's on the screen threre.

  He sent it to my father in Pakistan but quickly noticed it was full of viruses and it installed fresh Windows xp SP2 after formatting hard drive.

  He gave me to fix the problem. Because it is designed for windows vista. I want to install windows vista, but I do not have the disk recovery or operating any drive.

  How am I suppose to install windows vista?
  Someone told me that I have download the vista track and enter the key that is on the back of my laptop.

  Anyone with an idea. Please

  > He sent it to my father in Pakistan but quickly noticed it was full of viruses and it installed fresh Windows xp SP2 after formatting hard drive.

  It was a big mistake buddy
  The recovery disk is not shipped with the laptop because he had a tool preinstalled called creator Toshiba Recovery disk that allows you to create a clean recovery disc.
  But this is not possible because the HARD disk has been formatted and all files have been deleted.

  Now, you would not be able to recover the camera even using HARD drive recovery because the files are not available on the HARD disk.

  You need a recovery disk, and you can order it here:

• How to recover the Satellite A200-1KZ?

  Hello. I m from Spain. So excuse me for errors I could do in that language.

  Well, I bought this phone and I m very happy with it. But recently I had a problem.

  The issue is that I m a user of linux but use windows to play games and similar. The fact is that I was almost four or five months without getting into windows and... I Don t understand this, but... I forgot my password lol.

  I had tried every password I use, but no one worked. I could get into windows with different account unprotected, administrator privileges, so I can uninstall and install programs. I just make a copy of all my data from my user security.

  Difficult, I have administrator privileges, I use to have problems; for example Mozilla Firefox crashing.

  Take the County that I use this laptop for... probably six or seven years. So I have a lot of FP programs who use Don t actually and I think that the best I can do is to reinstall.

  When I bought the pc, they told me that the pc have a hidden partition (winRE) with 2.0 GB more or less. And when I use the Food Center (in windows vista) I see that partition, but disabled.

  Stand-alone box, with documentation, is, more or less 800 km. It probably contains a cd. The question is if you know how long that model have an indeed hidden partition (and restoring that) or I have to use the cd, thanks and again, I apologize about the errors.

  You're right about the partition recovery or recorded image recovery on the HARD disk but the problem is that you can't access.
  All you can try is again recovery disk order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
  Others and for me the best solution is to install own Win7 32bits version. It works very well and stabile on this old A200.

  If you need help with this let know us.

• How to recover the Portege M200 without optical drive or a floppy drive

  Hi guys,.

  Is it possible to perform a recovery of my M200 without using an opitcal drive or a floppy disk?

  All the solutions I have so far is based on having an optical drive of a kind or a floppy disk.
  The only solution seems to be doing through a network boot disk, but all the info regarding this option is only available for full XP not disc not the recovery disc, so I can't get that of not work either!

  Can someone tell me if there is a way to do a cover of the SD card without needing an optical drive or a floppy disk?

  Thank you

  As much I know SD card will not help at all. If you have the original recovery CD you the optical disk drive. If I remember well the docking station for this Portege should have one.

  Sorry, but I see no alternative here.

• Using the Satellite A100 without battery

  My laptop Satellite A100, the battery is almost dead. Is it bad to use the computer like this?
  Should I remove the battery and use the computer? When using on current alternative computer runs slowly when the battery does not work.

  Thank you

  > Is - that bad to use the computer like this?
  N °
  > Should I remove the battery and use the computer?
  You can do it if you want
  > When using on current alternative computer runs slowly when the battery does not work.
  Performance laptop has nothing to do with food but with parameters.
  I don't know what operating system you use, but if you have Vista, you can switch between the different profiles and each of them has different performance level.
  If you use it for normal work set for the balanced profile. If you require full performance of high power Performance set plan.

  You can remove the battery and continue using your laptop as usual.

• How to recover the file management gateway recovery on WINDOWS VISTA

  Hi I want to reset my laptop to factory settings, but the gateway recovery management file is missing, ive tried to watch a download to the top and its so complicated for a novice.

  that I found a payment for the file, can someone help me please x?

  http://support.gateway.com/s/software/MICROSOF/Vista/7515418/7515418su531.shtml

  You can also communicate with the gateway and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  It should be a small cost involved.

  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

• Satellite A100 - loop recovery disk

  I have a laptop 19Y03Q Satellite A100 PSAA8A that I bought in Australia and I brought vack to Singapore.
  Currently I'm trying to restore my computer laptop back to factory default, but the recovery disk displays a black screen and a cursor before restarting whenever I tried to recover.

  My hard drive disk and restore works very well. And I have the original drive hard toshiba came with the computer. (I had cloned the original on a larger hard drive)
  My drive was working 2 days ago and used it to wipe my laptop of unwanted files. But for some reason I had to restore again.
  The recovery disk would not go to the screen to select the method of recovery and keep restarting. I tried reformatting and the old hard drive cloning today, but the disc does not always (even if the clone was able to boot and run as I had left it your old hard drive). I checked the hard drive for errors found nothing and also led an installation of windows 7, which has been a success.
  I would not lose money by going to buy a new recovery disk and hard drive because both work well. I also do not alter the drive within two days.

  Thks in advance and I would appreciate a response.

  FOR INFO. I'm running the cloned from your old hard drive image

  Hey,.

  > My hard drive disk and recovery works very well
  How can you be sure that the recovery disk works well?

  To be honest, the story is a bit confusing, but I think that it s a problem with recovery disk if you have checked the HARD drive for errors and Windows 7 installation succeeded.

  You should ask a certified maintainer for help, maybe they can swap the disk recovery but an alternative, you can use a Windows disc. All the drivers and tools that you can find on the page of Toshiba.
