• Version of Windows Home on Equium A60 Recovery disk

  Hello

  I have an Equium A60 and had no problems with it overheating apartment which was resolved by changing the thermal paste on the processor (that i could tell there was little).
  But as other people have noticed that we're slowing down and re - install, it's ok, something to do when im bored, but I hate all the bundled application that comes on the recovery disk.

  I have a downloaded version of any version of windows home but the COA serial key does not work with any of those I have and I don't want an illegal version of windows.

  Please could someone tell me what version of home, I need for the COA serial key work with.

  I tried:

  -Retail
  -OEM
  -Corporate?
  -VLM

  What should I use the legal license key.

  Thank you

  Hello

  The OS of windows on the recovery CD is a (already active) OEM version.
  You cannot use a key of the OEM version on another Windows operating system.
  If you want to install the new Windows OS on your laptop, so you must use an original Microsoft Windows form the original CD.

  But I do not understand why you want to install a new Windows OS without the application of Toshiba. Without this software, you can use all the features of the laptop.
  All the features of the laptop needs to other tools and utilities.

  Of course, the laptop needs a little more to start all applications at the beginning but if you don't want to use it, you can remove it from the BONE in the control panel.

• Help for the preparation of an emergency on a drive disk external drive via., Dell backup and recovery (DBR) - Basic Version

  I have a laptop Dell Inspiron

  IAM intend to make a rescue disk via., Dell backup and recovery (DBR) - Basic Version

  Now, it says WRT below external link that this process will create two partitions on the hard drive.

  (Wipe all prior content of course.)

  DBR_BOOT (25 MB used out of 500 MB on a FAT32 style MBR partition)

  DBR_MASTER (9.7 GB used off GB 921 on a style of MBR of NTFS partition);

  [See:en.community.dell.com/.../19499639]

  Now, my question is will I be able to save my other files on the external hard drive that I use for the above process?

  (as the above process creates two partitions of 921 GB & 500 MB)

  IAM intend to save a system image from my computer on this disc well also, I have a few 250 GB of personal & video files

  (Iam that will buy a drive hard 500 GB to make the above process...)

  You will need to copy your other files on the hard disk before the distribution, you will lose it. When you have completed the process you can put back them on here.

• Express the Media Player (EMP) recovery disk - satellite P105-S6024

  I have a problem with my on my new machine satellite P105-6024 express Media Player software.

  As I bought it, everything works fine. But then, I did the partitions on my HARD drive and I instaled all the software recovery disc. And everything looks earlier and work properly but Express Media Center. It seems that it is not installed. I found the special Express Media Player restore disk but I don't know how to use it. (I am a novice complite). As I knew EMP is a linux-like software and it is not visible in Windows. And I know that there was a small special partition dedicated to this application. This partition has been deleted. And I'm not sure that it is possible to install EMP once more on my laptop. How can I use the EMP recovery disk? If I just run in the windows environment I see just a few files - but their execution, nothing is happen. I'd appreciate a small manual.

  Thank you very much in advance

  Hello

  I found this on the web:

  Installation Guide step by step for Express Media Player and Windows XP Recovery on two partitions in Expert mode:

  (1) all DATA on HARD drive will BE DESTROYED IRREVERSABLY (it's serious!)
  (2) install Express Media Player:
  Boot from the recovery Express Media Player CD
  --> use [delete all Partitions] (can be on the left side of the menu for older versions of reader).
  THIS ERASES THE ENTIRE HARD DRIVE!
  (3) boot with the Windows XP Recovery CD, go to expert mode and exit the "TOSHIBA Recovery Tool" (version OEM Ghost) using menuitem "Quit."
  (4) you can use fdisk.exe or gdisk.exe - I'll show the syntax here gdisk
  (its easier to describe and there are a lot of descriptions for FDISK on the net)
  (5) now, we create two partitions (size of 50%: 50%-playersize).
  --> At the DOS prompt, type:
  Gdisk 1 /cre /pri /sz:50%-> creates a primary partition 1
  Gdisk 1 /cre /ext-> creates an extended partition 2
  Gdisk 1/log /cre-> creates a 2nd logical partition
  Gdisk 1/p:1-> partionion set 1 active /act
  (6) now reboot with Windows XP Recovery CD, go to expert mode
  (7) menu use: Local\Partition\From Image, choose image GHO menu
  (8) there should only be ONE partition available source:
  1 primary DiskLoad NTFS 07...-> pick this one!
  (9) Select destination disk (there are also only one)
  1 basic...-> pick this one!
  (10) now you need to choose the destination partition - there should be three to choose!
  (11) select:
  1 primary 0C Fat32 without name...-->! BE SURE TO CHOOSE THIS ONE!
  (12) to confirm that you want to write on this partition
  "(13)" TOSHIBA Recovery Tool "is unpack and install the operating system
  (14) subsequently Windows XP and Media Player Express are installed

  Hope this will help you. Good luck!

  Good bye

• Question about the use of recovery disks Vista Bus on T500 with XP Pro downgraded

  I searched to see if this has been addressed already and I don't see anything about it. I also looked through the Lenovo support site and could not find any documentation with specific information, that I'm looking. So, if all goes well, the people here will have an idea.

  I have a T500 which was ordered with retired on WinXP Pro. It also came with a set of Vista Business (four discs) recovery disks. I plan to get my machine with Vista business records and down XP Pro, but I had a few questions.

  1. as it currently stands, I guess that the R & R partition that is on the HARD drive at this time restoring a WinXP Pro system if I start and get back with her. Is this correct?

  2. If I boot from the recovery disc Vista Business and use it for the recovery of the system, it creates a new partition 'Factory' R & R which would incorporate a Vista Business install?

  I may be wrong on my assumptions and even after the start of the R & R partition, it is really the recovery disks that I choose to use that would dictate if I found myself with a XP or Vista Bus. System.

  For what it's worth, I created a set of recovery disc R & R for the installation of WinXP Pro in case I need to revert to this version.

  I hope that my question is logical and that someone out there has an answer for me.

  Thanks in advance!

  jskang, welcome to the forum,

  Yes on both counts.

  Removal of all the hard drive recovery disks, create the service partition and then the system installs from the recovery with the flavor of windows partition, so that the discs are.

  It was a good idea to create the XP discs.

• Satellite Pro C660-1LR - new HARD drive but no recovery disk

  I need help for my son who is the Satellite Pro C660 1LR laptop.

  In this portable hard drive is completely dead, I have not created a disk of recovery for this system of portable computers.
  I bought a new hard drive that is installed... However, as you guessed it I have no access to reinstall an OS, this laptop works on windows 7.

  I'm not really tech savvy so if someone can advise me please do explain to the fool proof format! I try to avoid having to buy something expensive.

  > I'm trying to avoid having to buy something expensive.
  Problem is that you don't have many options in this regard.
  If you want to have the factory again settings you must install recovery disc. You can order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx of course is not free, but, in my opinion, without a doubt the best solution.

  You can buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version. You must purchase a valid license for it.
  In this case, you must install all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for more than one by one.

  Just in case you can get this installation of Microsoft and the free license you can save money.

  Believe me, the best solution is the original recovery disk command.

• Satellite P10-304: 2nd recovery disk does not work

  I have a buyer waiting and everything seems to be Dutch!

  Hello

  It's not easy to say what's wrong with the 2nd recovery disk.
  I would recommend formatting the HARD drive completely and try again to recover the operating system. If it doesn't work, well try to contact Toshiba. Here, you can order the recovery CD. Maybe the problem of recovery will be solved as a gesture of goodwill.
  Nevertheless, the recovery cd is not expensive.

• Re: How to get Corel WinDVD without using the recovery disk?

  The update for Corel WinDVD was rather messy and because of this some owners laptop uninstalled to try to install the new software. Now, we ended up with the only possibility of an image recovery, which, in practice, means losing the software.

  Updates for the Bluetooth and wifi are also pretty messy.
  Is isn´t possible to get this software back without using the recovery disk?

  As you probably know recovery image installed on Toshiba laptops is a kind of software that includes the operating system, drivers, tools specific to Toshiba and utilities but also some additional software like antivirus or DVD player application.

  All drivers and Toshiba tools and utilities are available on the Toshiba download page, and if you want to install the version of the OS, you can download each of them.
  This additional software is not available for download. It's a kind of gift on the owner of the laptop because as the new owner, your machine must be ready to employment with full protection and opportunities to use multimedia content.

  If you don't like it, you can remove the system and use your own applications.

  Summary: this software cannot be downloaded separately and if you want to have it again, you must install original image of recovery designed for your machine.

  If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

• NB200: create recovery disk .iso?

  I recently bought a NB200-10Z.
  I want to make a recovery disc but I don't have any external CD/DVD burner (& this machine has no built-in optical drive).
  The Toshiba HDD Recovery utility appears to require an optical drive to be physically present, whereas I would use for the utility to save an image of a recovery disk so that I can do my recovery media at my ease on another machine.
  QUESTION: is it possible?

  In fact, the logical direction for media recovery utility must surely be to allow users to not only a CD/DVD .iso, but ideally also a .img to boot from USB/SD flash media. This happens in an update of the utility software...?

  Hello

  Usually, the Toshiba recovery disc creator should recognize the external USB disk fault

  But in very rare cases the CD/DVD USB drive will be not recognized if the drive is not fully supported.

  In this case there is no much to do you'll need a different compatible CD/DVD player.

  I think you can order this disc of an ASP in local

• Portege R500-11Z: recovery disk to help prepare a new HARD drive

  I bought a new hard drive (SSD) for my R500-11Z and I put in an envelope with the USB cable before installation - I want to be able to format the drive and create a new copy of Windows XP before you get out of my existing hard drive.

  I'm looking for ways to use the recovery disk and it SEEMS that it should be possible... EXCEPT...

  I discovered that on the recovery disk there is an executable called recoUNPACK in the Tools folder, which should, in theory, restore the contents of the disc to the hard drive. However, because the new hard drive is plugged into my existing XP set up, he gets a folder called System Volume Information written in it. The presence of this file causes the recoUNPACK to fail. He gets, at 59%, every time, and then survey the error - System Volume Information already exists.

  Any person proposing the deletion of the folder should consider their knowledge of the XP - there is no way to do this, ask Mr. Google if you don't believe me. I also tried this with full of this folder write permissions so that, in theory, could replace recoUNPACK...

  I would be very grateful if someone knows a way of "forcing" crush the System Volume information folder or another way to 'restore' the recovery of my new hard drive disk (other that disassemble the laptop and substitute physically the disc!).

  I have reviewed various options for establishing a USB bootable drive, but as I will adapt it in my laptop I don't want running all versions of XP - so using the recovery disc supplied with my odd R500. All bootable USB I can find only programs, fat32 format, and I would stay in NTFS...

  And the reason why I want to do it this way, it is that I want to continue to use my existing hard drive until the news is ready - its supposed to be an effective way to work... but so far the time wasted, trying to restore the disks could have been better spent undoing the screws on the rear of the machine!

  Thanks in advance

  > However, because the new hard drive is plugged into my existing XP set up, he gets a folder called System Volume Information written in it. The presence of this file causes the recoUNPACK to fail. He gets, at 59%, every time and then lift the error - System Volume Information already exists

  Hmm the right path and the letter of the partition or volume entitled did you use?

  As far as I know that the command should show something like this:

  + recounpack.exe d:\imagename.tpa z: f +.

  (z: is the letter of your external USB drive and may be different in your case)

• I need English recovery disk for M300

  I have just in Italian, all that we can do the disk image in the menu
  or tell me how to get a copy?

  Thank you

  Hello

  on the official means, it is not possible to get a recovery disk in another language. Only, you can try to find someone who has a version in English of the M300.

  You can also create the system by yourself with a Microsoft Windows CD English. Programs and the necessary drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba site.

• Cannot use created for the Satellite A350-134 recovery disks

  EMM, I really hope you can help me.
  The laptop says that you create the disc of recovery by yourself, and that's what I did (on 2 Cds)
  So I wanted to reinstall my laptop and put in the first cd and booted from the CD. So I came in the Menu.
  Then, after some time he asked me to put in the second CD and I did. Then, he said he had a copy of the last 2 files needed error.
  So now I can't create the recovery again disk because I have already started to the reinstall. now, I have a few questions

  What can I do in general? Because I don't really want to buy for 35 euros a new recovery disk: S

  Of course, you can do this, but please note that you will not be able to activate this version with the product key for the Microsoft sticker, placed at the bottom of your laptop.

• Download recovery disk creater software?

  Hi guys

  I have a satellite phone P850 138 and I had a virus, so I desided to pick up my laptop using the disks that I created when I brought my laptop.

  When he arrived to disk 3, he could not say that it could not find 10802XSP3. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT.

  Cause at this point, I died in water as his wiped the disk hard but could not deliver the data!

  I borrowed a set of discs from a PC older toshiba laptop, so I can at least get windows 7 installed and downloaded the drivers for my work laptop but I'd like to get my laptop recovered its own version of windows using a!

  OFC the installed version does not so much that what a laptop 2 recovery disk and there need 6 disks (Yes, the recovery partition is still there and I can see the files .swm etc...)

  I tried holding 0 (zero) key start upward and it does not work.

  did I download the creater software so I can create another set of discs?

  Thanks for any help

  Recovery disks can be created if the laptop has only factory settings. You cannot install the clean version of Windows and then create the recovery disk.

  If you have original disks for your model of laptop you must order original discs from Toshiba.
  You can order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

• Satellite C670D - 11K - Toshiba recovery disks does not work

  I tried to recover the Satellite C670D - 11K using new factory system recovery disks provided by Toshiba. Both drives do their thing until the end when I get these messages:

  Only option after this point is to press a button any and I get the white screen Toshiba

  When I turn on the laptop I get message "boot mgr is missing." I tried the disc of recovery a couple of times since and things don't get any better. In fact I just get a black screen with cursor after

  Suggestions this is appreciated please? I was thinking of buying the recovery disks would be a solution simple but should I give in and go to a professional now?

  Thanks, Paul

  I assume you are using recovery discs that you created using Toshiba recovery disc creator tool, right?
  It seems silly now, but something went wrong and I m afraid recovery disks are now useless. It turns out that you can't change anything or force the cell to the recovery image installs successfully.

  The only thing you can try is - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD4103KB0000R01.htm
  I don't think this will help, but you can test it in any case.

  Now, you have two options:
  -for the restore disc original order from Toshiba
  -install the clean version of the OS by using the Microsoft installation disc
