• Satellite P200-1BA - HDD is faulty and Windows does not start

  Fujitsu HDD diagnostic tool returned a FAILURE result. Who should I contact to do what? Throw the HARD drive and buy another?

  The laptop was purchased in March last year and came up with this problem. It bothered me not far, given that the data written in these bad sectors and I have no problems. Because I accidentally deleted data, operating system written in these bad sectors and corrupts the data. Formatting the drive does not at all help, bad sectors are not detected by Windows Vista, only by the manufacturer's diagnostic tool. When asked to warranty on the manufacturer's website, it says it's expiration date is 10/09/10, but they do nothing about it, I have to contact the manufacturer of the system and tell him about this, because it's a VERY SPECIAL GUARANTEE: "serial number determined to be sold to a system with a single system warranty manufacturer and must be returned by the manufacturer of the system.

  Anyone any ideas? Or should I just buy another HARD drive. Thank you.

  PS: by the way, I'm not the only one having this problem for the same model of HARD drive.

  ´HI

  Just a question: why didn t contact you authorized service provider?

  I men if your laptop is still under warranty, you can get a new HARD drive for free. The ASP can order a new one and swap it out. All that s! :)

  On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest ASP:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  If your computer laptop isn't under warranty, you must buy a new HARD drive. But the s HDD are not that expensive.

• I have an eMachine EL1200 with Windows XP Home Edition. Windows will not start

  I went to start my computer yesterday morning and Windows wouldn't start up.  He continues to go to a black screen saying that Windows has not started up. It gives me options to try:

  1. safe Mode

  2 safe Mode w / network

  3 safe Mode w / command prompt

  4. last know good configuration

  5 start normally

  I tried all the and none start Windows.  Please let me know how I can fix it.

  Hi DavidMitchell,
  I would first remove all external devices from the computer and try to start again. This means that any player mp3, external drives, USB storage devices, etc.

  If this does not work and you're still stuck on these 5 options you listed above, then it might be time to use the Recovery Console.

  Please see the following thread:

  This is an article on what exactly is the Recovery Console and how to use it properly.

• Equium M40X: I get to the banner of Toshiba, but Windows does not start

  When I start my 2 year old Toshiba Satellite M40X, I get to the banner of Toshiba, but Windows does not start. I tried using the recovery CD and it does not either.

  Any suggestions as to what could be the problem?

  Hello

  What do you mean with the banner of Toshiba? Did you mean the Toshiba splash screen that appears at the begging of the boot?

  Equium M40X successfully passed this screen?

  If the laptop is unable to switch to the home Toshiba screen then I presume that the BIOS has detected a hardware problem.
  In this case primarily the motherboard fails

  But if the laptop is able to spend the Toshiba start screen, the motherboard must be ok and only a 3rd device malfunction as HARD drive could cause this problem.

  Try to study a little

• Error code 0 xC0000001 on Asus Vivo tab Rt with RT Windows does not start

  Error code 0 xC0000001 on Asus Vivo tab Rt with RT Windows does not start

  Hi guys,.

  I hope you can help, I bought an Asus Vivo tab RT with month windows RT 13 there, I used it only for the first two weeks after I bought and then travel. I went back to find he does not start and going to a blue with 0 xC0000001 error screen after several attempts of the operating system on your PC could not start, so it needs to be repaired.

  It is now one month out of warranty and ASUS refuse to provide support for me, I used the recovery media to reset the Tablet, but still he starts to this message.

  I'm not sure what I can do, I'm totally stuck. Can anyone offer some advice on what I can try? anything via the command prompt?

  At this point I have an expensive paper weight.

  Thanks in advance

  Joel

  Hello Joel,
   
  Usually, the error code 0 xC0000001 indicates that winload.exe in C:\Windows\System32\Boot could not be found or is corrupted. This could be the result of a corrupted download, before the creation of the operating system.

  Since Windows RT came pre-installed and require installation media to retrieve the device, you may need to contact Asus support for assistance.

  I'm really sorry not to be useful in this regard.

  Please do not hesitate to contact us for any further assistance on Windows.

• Satellite C650 - Windows does not start correctly

  I have a Satellite C650, who does not start, when it lights there are two options, Startup Repair launch which leads to a black screen and mobile arrow, the screen remains like that until you turn it off the button stop (seriously ive left for about 10 hours). The other option is to start windows normally resulting in a blue screen and the laptop restarts itself.

  Help me please, make things worse I can't find the box that it came in which contains the guarantee and recovery disc

  Hey Buddy,

  You can start your laptop in safe mode? This means that if you press the F8 key before Windows starts and you choose Safe mode can you start Windows?

  If this isn't the case I think that it s something wrong with your Windows installation and that's why you need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings.

• Satellite A200-08JC - software of the camera Chicony does not start

  I installed the correct drivers for my 08JC satellite A200 XP, but when I click the button start to run the software, it shows something loading for a few seconds, then stops. The camera does not illuminate and the display software that shows the view of the camera does not start: nothing happens.

  I searched around on Google for a solution, but other users having similar problems to the least get an error message to help. I have nothing like that.

  Does anyone have ideas that could help?

  And what dodey now?
  Driver installation doesn t help, you don't want to test the functionality of device with the settings you would expect now?
  A magical solution or what?

  Description of your model name is somewhat strange and A200-08JC is not known to me but overall Satellite A200 notebooks are WXP supported.
  Can you please post the model name for laptop again?

• Portege R830 - Windows does not start after I have install Comodo Firewall

  Good afternoon

  I bought today a Portege R830, and after the Windows configuration, the first program that I installed was the popular free Comodo Firewall. After that I restarted, Windows 7 unbootable. It would be stuck on the user login screen and I know it's a problem with the firewall because if I do a system restore to the restore point created by Setup of firewall, windows restarts.

  So I ask if there is any inconsistency between the firewall and software on the Toshiba. A that someone already had this problem? I tried to solve this problem throughout the day with no results. I even re-installed Windows 7 using the Toshiba Recovery and the problem persists. I really like the Comodo and I want this firewall on my laptop, but Windows does not just start!

  Any help would be apreciated.

  Hi jillefsky,.

  Have you disabled the Windows Firewall before you start with the installation of Comodo Firewall? As far as I know, Portege R830 is delivered with preinstalled McAfee security software and you must remove this program before you install other security tools.

  Generally this has nothing to do with Toshiba and it s advisable to contact Comodo directly. They may know about this so they can give you a proper answer.

  But I put t understand why this program is so important to you. Windows already has an internal firewall so that these programs are not necessary in my opinion. Just install a good antivirus like AntiVir and enable the automatic updates of Windows. All that s!

• Satellite U300 - Windows does not start correctly

  My U300 Vista Home run came in a boot loop: Windows can not start correctly and makes me want to use repair system, which failed and just makes me want to stop the computer again.

  I've tried without success, but failure mode it no more. I have a product recovery CD, but the system does not start from him. When I studied at the start, I saw that the BIOS does not detect the optical drive.

  Help please! Thank you.

  Hi nonprofit.

  You could try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Maybe it will be reconigze the CD/DVD drive again.

  Otherwise I think that it of necessary to replace the defective drive. Then, you would be able to use the Toshiba recovery disc again. This will restore factory in a few minutes.
