My computer recovery disk shows RED on laptop HP Dv6t-QE

Using Win 7-64 bit, no error message, bought 24/01/12, looking at the list of readers on 'My Computer' - recovery disc RED watch - as far as I remember, it's there since new - not exactly.

The recovery partition is configured by default to use only as much space as necessary for the files to reinstall your operating system. Windows sees this as an almost full score and feels the need to inform you of this fact

  • What recovery disk belongs to which laptop?

    Hello

    We have several laptops from Toshiba (Satellite A100, A200, U300, L300, Tecra M9) and several recovery disks. All recovery disks look alike (the only difference is a code starting with GMR400. How will I know the drive I have to use with a given mobile? Is it possible to tell one of the others? Or I can use any disc with any laptop?

    Thanks for your help

    Hello AMB

    Unfortunately I can't help you much about it because those numbers don't mean a lot to me. Also, I believe that no one here can help you with this stuff. What you can do is to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help. They have access to the database of Toshiba and I think they can help you.

    The fact is that you cannot use any disc with any model of Toshiba laptop. Saved on the recovery disk recovery image is created for certain model only and recovery image contains specific drivers for the specific model laptop (depends on the hardware platform).

    Bye and good luck!

  • Re: Satellite L355D - how to create a recovery disk?

    I searched all over the forums, but does not know how to create a recovery disk works for my laptop. I know it is run from a partition on the HARD drive, but I can't figure out how to access this partition. Should there be some sort of built-in utility?

    Thank you

    You can create the recovery only DVD disc if your laptop computer has preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator and factory settings.

    Please check if you can find this tool under start > all programs > Toshiba. There you should find shortcuts to launch this utility.

  • NB305-01E recovery disks don't work

    I tried to restore my NB305 Netbook (windows 7) to its original factory (using the beginning and hold '0') and with the recovery disc I made when I bought my netbook.

    No recovery option works. Using the beginning + '0' does not put me in the hard drive recovery mode (everything that happens is that it freezes the boot process until I release the "0" key), or try using the recovery (F12 + recovery disk process) disk bothers me in the process of recovery, but after all of 1/2 hour of good process , the computer and external disk drive crashes with a message "copy files to the disc.

    I left the computer all night and there was no progress. It seems that the recovery disc I made is corrupt and I might have to buy a new Toshiba recovery disks. Any suggestions or information on how I can go about buying recovery disc Toshiba for my net book?

    Thank you! JL

    Hello

    To be honest I don t understand this with the computer and external drive. You have created recovery image on external HARD disk?

    Can you please tell me where you bought your netbook? This European model? I ask this because on the European models, you enter startup options using F8 at startup and fix my computer to start the installation of HARD drive recovery.

    In any case, if nothing is done I'm afraid, you must order the original Toshiba Recovery disk for your model laptop from Mr. I don t know where do you live and you can not send good link where you can order but you can contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

  • Satellite A100 - recovery disk loop

    Hey guys,.

    I am currently trying to reformat/reinstall Windows on my laptop A100. There is nothing wrong with that, I just wanted a clean install. I use the recovery disk and start the laptop through the DVD player. It reads the DVD fine I get "Loading the RAMDisc Image" or something else, and fill the bars and loads. After that, I see a cursor with a black background and then after a few seconds, the phone restarts and brings back me to the start screen for Toshiba again. Does anyone know what is the problem?

    I used the disc before and it worked fine. The only difference between yesterday and today is that I partitioned my hard drive into three sections (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Misc files storage), but I don't think it would be a problem.

    In addition, if you use the recovery disk does not, is there another way to wipe the hard drive and start over? (That is to say, reformat the entire computer and reinstall my OS?)

    Thanks in advance!

    What happened to my laptop. To resolve this problem, I deleted all the partitions on the disk using FDISK non-dos and then was taken successfully.

    You can download free startup BACK disks on www.bootdisk.com (choose the custom floppy Win98SE, there FDISK).

  • Hi can I use xp for dv2000 recovery disk to downgrade a dv2000 with preinstalled vista thank you

    Hello

    I have 2 laptops of dv2000 with different model No, s

    one with xp factory mounted and the other with factory installed vista

    can I use the xp from the computer recovery disks laptop xp

    to downgrade vista to xp or is it better to install windows 7 please

    Thank you very much

    maggieglanville

    Hello:

    You probably have to downgrade your laptop from Vista to XP, but you do not have a license (right to downgrade) to do with Microsoft.

    Normally, the desktop and professional laptops only received rights to downgrade to XP due to risk of operations undertaken grinding halt because of software with some programs and Vista incompatiblities.

    Personally, it is best to switch to Windows 7.

    Since your laptop with Vista, it can run Windows 7. For all the missing drivers you may need to you can use normally drivers Vista on the support page and the driver of your laptop.

    In addition, you can read through this guide for dv2000 for Windows 7 upgrade.

  • Satellite P840: How to create the secure boot with UEFI Bios recovery disk

    Hello

    I have laptop P840 that came pre-installed with Windows 8, which I've upgraded to Windows 8 Pro.
    I then updated to Windows Pro 8.1 by Windows store. Please notify:

    1. how to create a DVD repair or start for windows 8.1 pro with UEFI Bios and boot secured.

    2. I created a USB recovery using the control panel in Windows Pro 8.1. It starts OK. It will be the same as that I've created using the Toshiba Media recovery creator or will it drivers Windows Pro 8.1?

    3. check partitions with disk management, then 3 (450MO, 350 MB and GB 10.90) recovery partitions, 1 EFI system partition and 2 primary (C: programs) and D: for data. I created the recovery DVD and USB 2 disks. Can I remove the 3 recovery partitions?

    > 1. How to create a DVD repair or start for windows 8.1 pro with UEFI Bios and boot secured.
    To be able to boot from sources other than the drive HARD internal, the boot mode must be set to the CSM and secure boot must be disabled!

    > 2. I created a USB recovery using the control panel in Windows Pro 8.1. It starts OK. It will be the same as that I've created using the Toshiba Media recovery creator or will it drivers Windows Pro 8.1?

    Your laptop has been preloaded with Win 8. Right? For example, the USB flash stick memory you just use the Toshiba Recovery media creator contains the Image of Toshiba with Windows 8. Don t mix this Toshiba image with the image that can be created using Microsoft's own backup and restore function. Both are different pictures!

    > 3. Check it with disk management, then 3 (450MO, 350 MB and GB 10.90) recovery partitions, 1 EFI system partition and 2 partitions primary (C: programs) and D: for data. I created the recovery DVD and USB 2 disks. Can I remove the 3 recovery partitions?

    The last partition contains the files on HARD drive recovery. Usually this partition will be created again when you use the Toshiba Recovery disk to put the laptop back to factory settings. So in the case where you n t need this files or the partition, you can delete

    Have you thought about the HARD drive?
    It could be a malfunction of the HARD drive that does not allow you to install the system.

    There is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test. You can use it to check the HARD drive.

  • Satellite Pro C650: Questions regarding the installation of recovery disk

    Hello

    can someone give me some help please?
    I will have to purchase and install a recovery for my C650 Pro Sat disc.
    When I get it I just plug and play. I also lost windows 7 which was preinstalled, or I can also to buy a new copy of windows 7 and install it too?

    It will then just go back to how it was when we brought.

    Thank you

    Hi Tina

    You must boot from the recovery disk to put the laptop in the same State as on the first day of purchase.

    The Toshiba Recovery disk format the whole HARD drive and automatically installs Windows 7, Toshiba tools and utilities, drivers, therefore, boot from that disk and you will need to follow the instructions on the screen.
