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

  • Satellite Pro A300-28R - how to enable virtualization in the BIOS?

    The laptop model is Satellite Pro A300-28R with Windows 7 Professional and BIOS version 2.10.

    How do I enable virtualization setting so I can run Windows Virtual PC mode to run compatible programs XP?

    The fact is that the processor must support this virtualization and according to the Web of Toshiba site, your laptop is equipped with processor Core 2 Duo T5870.
    I checked this on the page of Intel CPU and virtualization isn't supported. That means t, you can use this feature!

  • Satellite Pro A300-1 system restore has 8 Vista works not

    I wanted to use the system restore because of the attempt to reconfigure the administrator rights, its somehow deleted all my shortcuts on my menu and messed with a few things.

    However, when I try to use the system restore (I tried to use it in safemode, via cmd promp, bunch together and normal), but all seem to keep hanging in the same green page where you can read something in the sense of "system is initializing restore etc" (spend 45 minutes on this page until I get fed up and shut down the computer). I tried to use different restore points the same thing happens. He loves his work not at all.

    Can anyone help with this please?

    Hello

    You mean the Vista tool, which is located in (Start button-> all programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore) does not work and you cannot set back the Vista until the early time?

    Well, usually there's not much to do to restore the operating system to start time the point you have to play the System Restore tool and choose the restore point. Then everything should run automatically.
    If this doesn t work while something is messed up as you said in your ad above somehow deleted all your shortcuts in my menu and messed with a few things possibly operating system was messed in.

    Try to clean the operating system by using the freeware CCLeaner for example. I also use it. It s great. Repair and clean the operating system and check if it is possible to use the system again restore tool.

    I also found this MS page:

  • Satellite Pro A300: How to create the recovery disk

    Hello
    I just bought a Satellite Pro A300 with Windows XP.
    I want to know how I can or if I need to create a recovery disk that will reset the machine to its original state.
    The information gives instuctions on how to proceed for the Vista machines, but not for XP.

    I know that I can recover from the hidden partition, but where this is not possible, I wish I could get CD or DVD.
    There is a recovery CD included product that says only: "MS Windows XP" so I guess that it does not include drivers or Toshiba Software?

    Any help appreciated,
    Thank you

  • How to install the recovery image on Satellite Pro A300?

    I have a Satellite Pro A300 and I need factory reset. I learned from my teacher of computers there is a unknown virus on this subject. Apparently, it has been downloaded when I downloaded Malware bites. I got the laptop free of Set - BC because I muscle Handi-trophy and get tired of writing.

    My teacher told me that I need to Factory Reset, but when I got the laptop, she had everything installed on, (kurzwell, Chrome, etc.) so I don't have the disc to factory reset. In addition, the virus has disabled everything that has anything to do with the internet, (Chrome, for example, Firefox, Outlook, malware bites, etc.).

    Y at - it all means I have factory reset the laptop without the need of the disc.
    Any suggestions will help.

    Thank you

    I have a portable Satellite Pro A300.

    I need to know if I can order the good extra memory for it.

    Can anyone help?
    Thank you.

    Check the labels at the bottom of the unit.
    You will find the part model number like for example: PSAJ5E - 005001GR
    The first 6 characters (PSAJ5E) are important.
