How to start the installation of recovery on Satellite A200?

I hope someone can help.

My laptop wouldn't start this morning, so I hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart, I got the splash screen telling me to press F2 or F12, let it go and stopped the laptop to a black screen with a cursor blinking in the upper left.
I had done a backup two days earlier, so decided it was time to do a factory restore and clean the disc.
I stopped, then pushed the value 0 (zero) key and exploited the power button, according to the instructions. When it beeps, I release the button and it now says:
Playing a disc error has occurred
Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart

And inside is:

HARD DRIVE RECOVERY MODE *.

I received this Satellite A200 PSAF0A - 04 X 019 a family member, who does not create recovery discs when you set up the laptop.

I can do this is to access the recovery partition, then run a file manually, or is its beyond repair?

See you soon

If you can not start installation of recovery of HARD drive on a regular basis there is no other way to access the recovery image.
To be honest I n don't know what means exactly this error. I put t know if there is a problem with the image of a HARD drive or recovery.

What you can do now is to install own OS and then download all the drivers, tools and utilities alone or try to contact Toshiba service provider and ask if they can order a DVD of recovery for you.

  • How to start the installation of recovery on Satellite L350-170?

    Hello

    I'm new to this so please be gentle with me! -J' have a Toshiba Satellite L350-170 (Windows Vista SP2). I burned the recovery DVD 2 right after that I got back. I decided to get it back to factory settings, so I put the first recovery disc in the drive and... nothing. It will not automatically play/start to start the recovery process. I can access the files on the drive through "MY COMPUTER" but you can see a 'set-up '. I had already used the discs to recover and it worked then no problem.

    There is nothing wrong with the computer or the error messages

    Apologies if its been said before, but can someone help or I would like to know what is happening please?

    with deep gratitude

    Hello Mike

    If it worked in the past that I n t see the reason why it shouldn't still works one time, except the discs are damaged.

    Anyway, try this:
    Start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu
    Insert disk 1 into the optical disc drive
    In the list, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER

    ODD must start to read the disc and you should see something on the screen.

    It works for you?

  • Cannot start the installation of recovery on my Satellite A200 - 28 p

    I'm trying to restore my PC laptop Toshiba Satellite A200 - 28 p (Windows Vista Home Edition) by using the recovery disk of the product supplied with the laptop, no matter what I try to do, I can not run, the only thing that it will allow me to do is to restore the laptop to an earlier date. I have full admin rights on the laptop, there is no virus or other malware on it, all this seems to have happened because he updated with windows vista, about two days ago have uninstalled the updates, but that has no effect.

    I can't find anywhere on the laptop recovery console, but I know it was there before. I tried a lot of solutions available on the web, but none of them work. I used the recovery disc about 2 1/2 years when the laptop crashed and it worked fine then.

    Any help apprecited

    I don't remember how it was with A200.
    You only have a recovery DVD or you could also launch the installation of recovery of HARD drive using F8 at startup (advanced startup options > fix my computer)?

    In any case, the description of your problem confuses me.
    If you are using the recovery as boot drive DVD there is no console repair or some options.
    Installation of recovery on startup, you can only see menu where you have to click on next.

  • Cannot start the installation of recovery for Portege M200

    Hello

    I've used the DVD of recovery a long time ago, but now he won early t. Instructions tell you to:
    1 insert the disc
    2nd turn the pc on while keeping the key C pressed
    3. follow the instructions that appear on the screen

    I tried as indicated but nothing happens and windows starts normally. I also tried to open the DVD when the pc is on and I can see the files but can t start the process.

    Can someone help me solve this problem?

    Hello

    have you tried to boot from the DVD? Of course, you can see the files on the DVD, but perhaps you need to change the boot order so it starts on the DVD instead. To do this, restart the computer, and then press F2 when you see the Toshiba logo on the screen during startup (F2 or which key it tells you to press to enter setup).

    Move to the boot order in the BIOS setup and exchange the CD/DVD with the HARD drive so that the CD/DVD is top of the list. Go into the menu of the BIOS Exit Saving Changes and the computer will reboot. I hope that the recovery DVDs should start now, if it works and the completion of all facilities to return to the menu of the BIOS and follow the same instructions to change the CD/DVD in the second and put the HARD drive to the top of the list.

    I hope that answers your question.

  • Portege M200: How to start the installation of the OS?

    I have a m200 and going in all directions, I don't think I'm technical enough to solve this problem, even with assistance.

    I want a reset/install, but obviously I need a compatible external drive for what I can not afford.

    I want to start on a SD card, I heard that I could do. Just copy the files from recovery dvd on the SD card?

    Can I get another copy if I lost mine?

    Well, to install the OS on this disc, you will need a compatible player (as mentioned)
    Of course, the device supports the SD card startup BUT to use it, use the Toshiba SD Boot Utility memory which is preinstalled on your image.

    This utility creates start-up just on the SD card files to boot into DOS mode.
    It s a similar on a startup MS-DOS disk.

    As you can see you can not use the SD card to install the OS: (unfortunately

    Hello

    Normally after the installation of recovery your laptop should work fine again.

    In my opinion, it could be a malfunction of the equipment. Did you test the HARD drive for bad sectors? You can do this with Drive Fitness Test: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#DFT
    Download the ISO image and burn it to a disk. Then you can boot from it and test your HARD drive for errors.

    I also recommend to check the RAM for errors: http://memtest86.com/
    Memtest is a good diagnostic tool for the RAM.

    I hope I could help a bit. :)

  • How do I start the installation after downloading

    Recently, I downloaded the following files in Production Premium CS5 (shown here in alphabetical order):

    • AdobeCS4InternationalEnglishSpeechAnalysisModels.exe
    • AfterEffects_10_Content_LS7.7z
    • AfterEffects_10_Content_LS7.exe
    • AfterEffects_PremierePro_CS4_ALL.7z
    • AfterEffects_PremierePro_CS4_ALL.exe

    • ProductionPremium_CS5_LS7.exe
    • ProductionPremium_MasterCollection_CS5_Content_ALL.exe
    • SpeechAnalysisModelsInternationalEnglish_2_LS7.exe

    Said of the installation instruction to start the installation by double-clicking setup.exe, but there is no file.

    Questions

    1. What file should I double-click on the installation?
    2. What is the correct order to install the above files?

    Note

    I have Windows 7 32 bit and you need to install first as well!

    Hello-

    My apologies for confusing experience! To get started with your Production Premium, you must run:

    ProductionPremium_CS5_LS7.exe

    Please make sure the file is in the same directory as ProductionPremium_CS5_LS7.7z.

    This will extract your download and start the installation of the product Premium CS5.

    The other files are templates and additional content and can be installed one at a time. If you have the same names of files and .exe and .7z, simply run the .exe and the installation of this component (AfterEffects_10_Content, PremierePro_5_Content, etc. will start).
