How to restore a Satellite A300 PSAGOE?

Sorry if this is in the wrong place or has responded, but one of my friends want me to restore its Satellite A300, the only info that she can give me is that it works on Vista and it's a 03uo1yen of psagoe.

She has no records for this laptop. She bought a buffer memory so that I can make a backup of your laptop before you start anything on this subject.
My question is, will she lose Vista and/or all pilots with a system restore? I was hoping to give it "out of the box", but that is not possible.

I thank before any information, you can provide or advice you may have.

Hello Carla, and welcome to the forum of Toshiba

At first, I must say that, out of the box, State can be done with the original recovery disk and if you don t have what may be a problem.
If this phone works with Vista preinstalled original there may be able to do this, use the disk HARD recovery option.

It works as described in this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm
Please check this option.

In the end, I must say that I was not able to identify this model of laptop and therefore give you more information please be so kind and post here exactly the model number (PAxxx-xxxxx) and the name of the model (A300-xxx).
The two numbers that you will find at the bottom of the thumbnail of Toshiba.

If you have any other questions let us know.

  • How to restore my Satellite Pro A300?

    I had to replace the hard drive on my laptop Satellite Pro A300. Before that, I did a complete backup of computer with Windows complete PC Backup. Now I want to restore all of the backup computer, but I have this problem:
    When the computer restarts I press F8 and select Repair my computer, and in the System Recovery Options, I click on the Windows complete PC Restore. Then, the window for the selection of available backups. When I click on the next button, I get the following message:
    «To restore your computer, Windows needs to format the drive running Windows recovery environment on.» Start your computer from a Windows or a recovery disc install disc to try again".

    I don't have a Windows installation disc. When I start my computer from the key to the rescue disk, and then press F8 in boot option advanced, I don't see you option to fix my computer.

    How to restore my computer anyone know?

    I don't know what is really happening in your computer, but it is a little difficult to restore without Windows installation disc. On another computer, you can download and install Acronis true image and activate it. Acronis, there is an option, the backup copy of Windows convert to Acronis backup. Convert you. Then, create a rescue bootable Acronis Disk support. Converted Acronis backup, you can place them on dvd disc discs or burn flash usb. Insert, Acronos boot media, navigate to the backup and restore. \

    It's a bit difficult to explain everything, but in your case, it is best to get copy of windows and do a clean install

  • How to restore the Satellite A135-S4727?

    I'll give the Satellite A135 to my sister.
    How to restore all the default values with spoil them my warranty or something like that.
    help please

    It's easy:

    If you have recovery media, it just put in your DVD/CD player, press F12 when the toshiba logo appears, and then choose the CD drive to boot from.

    After that, a Recovery Wizard will guide you trough the rest of the reocvery process. After that, the HARD drive would be like "factory-installed" which means it would be you bought the machine and the OS is like the first day so use.

  • How to connect my Satellite A300-1J1 to HD TV

    Hello

    I have a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A300-1J1 (who doesn't have a HDMI) & just Toshiba XV551D 40 '' HD tv. You want to be able to connect the laptop to the tv with the best possible picture quality, a DVI to HDMI cable would be better than the monitor standard 15pin cable external monitor/TV?

    My laptop has an IEEE1394 Jack, I presume it's the same as a DVI plug? (I could be wrong tho!) Also read the manual of the TV, he said unless I connect HDMI to HDMI, I would need a separate audio cable?

    Looking to buy all the necessary cables rather than go shopping online so please advise as soon as possible, I want to make sure I get correct leads of the judgment.

    And my apologies if I seem thick lol.

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy

    First, please note that the VGA port provides the analog signal.

    It s is NOT possible to convert the analog signal into digital signal! You can convert a digital signal to analog but the analog to digital is not possible and will not work with HD TV.

  • How can I configure Satellite A300-148 boot from the recovery partition?

    Hello

    I had some problems when trying to install MAC - OSX, for her, where the partition table is deleted, then I retrieve the entire score as it is, but I can not start in any case.
    Then I decide temproraly install another copy of vista drive Vista (not the partition), then set up my laptop to boot from the recovery partition and reinstall the good copy.
    My problem is, it's all here, the only problem is, I need to configure the system to boot from the recovery partition.

    My device is:
    Satellite A300-148

    Thanks to the device.
    Ahmed.

    Hello

    If you have already changed the partitions of HARD drive and deleted files from the HARD disk, then your HARD drive recovery is too bad!

    But to make sure that the HARD drive recovery is not possible please press F8 immediately after the power of the laptop. Usually a start menu should appear and you should be able to choose the option called fix my computer. Then you should be able to choose recovery option.

    But like I said that this is only possible if your HARD drive was not formatted!

    If you have formatted the HARD drive and changed partitions then you will need a Toshiba DVD recovery that you have not because you didn t he create at the beginning. Is this good? Well, then you must order the recovery DVDs if you want to retrieve the laptop to factory settings.

    Hello

    Hmm. I m wondering if you checked a few discussions here on the same theme.
    Did you?
    There are more that enough son and I m sure you will not need to create this thread after reading some reviews.

    Just a tip; the use of HARD drive recovery option will format the system partition, but the D partition (where the HARD drive recovery files are placed) wouldn't be formatted!

    If you are still not sure after reading some discussions, please ask again ;)

    How to use '@' key on the keyboard?
    When I use shift + 2 key, @ is not displayed.

    Which are the keys to use to get @.

    Best regards

    Hello

    I think you the problem is related to a bad keyboard language setting.
    It seems that your keyboard type does not match the language setting in Control Panel-> regional & language Options control

    Maybe you use an English * UK * available instead of English * U.S. *.

    Try to change that and check if it helps.

  • How to clean my Satellite A300 1BL

    I would like to clean my computer really good.
    I search the Internet and someone uses a vacuum cleaner in the grid, but I'd like to know your opinion, I have to open inside safely to clean the ventilation system of the soul and all that things.

    Can you help me please?
    Thank you all.

    Hello!

    To clean my laptop, I use the jet of compressed air and could blow the dust from the cooling fans.
    It s not necessary to disassemble anything.

    If you have no experience, how to disassemble a laptop, you should not do this. It s a little more delicate and you need to remove a large number of screws and it s your risk and peril.

  • Satellite A300 (PSAGOE) - blinking of the screen and it's slow

    Hello

    I recently installed windows 7, pilots were found auto and I installed just to be sure chip, screen, sound, blue tooth and driver card.
    What happens is when I play in dota graphics is generally slow and have some flicker of the screen during the game. I have on the other partition windows xp and it works fine.

    Tell me is there something special I can do, or driver I can install in order to have the best performance? And what I don't see is the second display device. Mode of operation is the only screen?

    Help, please.

    Hello

    This means you have only problems with this game?
    To be honest, this game is not known to me so you checked whether it s compatible to Windows 7? Some older games is not compatible, or you need to run in compatibility mode.

    Otherwise, make sure that the last official website of Toshiba display driver is installed and update your DirectX version.

    What version of Windows 7 you have installed?

  • Satellite A300 PSAGOE stops himself play Dota

    I have a problem with my Toshiba.
    When I play dota or any other my pc game starts to heat up a lot.

    If I do not put on something to stick so a few cm from the table, she shut downs himself.
    And the laptop is proposed at this stage.

    Advice because I play online and always shut downs in the middle of the game?

    Hello!

    What do you think about cleaning the laptop if your laptop is overheating? I mean the laptop stops itself due to a higher internal temperature and it's ok because otherwise the equipment be damaged you.
    So in this case the laptop needs to be cleaned.

    This is why you can use the jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust from the cooling fans and you don't have to disassemble the laptop. You can buy it in a computer store fore example and I would recommend reading this link from Toshiba:

    Hello..

    I tried to format my hard drive on my laptop L25, which currently has Win XP, but don't know that if I ever had a CD/DVD of recovery of the person I bought it from.

    Does anyone know if this laptop (L25-s1192) contains a picture of the recovery diskette or if I can get a drive recovery somewhere or any other way to format the drive and reinstall the original content of the laptop?

    Would appreciate if you could answer.
    Thank you... Amare

    Hello

    Usually, the old series from Toshiba was equipped with the recovery disk and the image of Toshiba on the recovery cd.
    If you have a recovery disc, then you will have to boot from that disk to start the recovery procedure.

    If you don t have a recovery disk, then you can use a clean Microsoft Windows XP CD to reinstall the operating system and the necessary drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page we.
    It is a portable American and you need to find US page for drivers.
