Need help with formatting my laptop Satellite M40

Dear all,

I have a satellite M40 notebook and when I bought it was running perfectly. Then the sound has deteriorated significantly with the Harman / Kardon speakers without drastically.
Then, the speed of the applications has deteriorated in opening. Then I could not use my DVD RW drive to back up my data. In my opinion, happened after I tried to install a software that may be in conflict with the existing drivers.

Finally, I decided to format the laptop and start over. With my original purchase came three CD: DVD - ROM Recovery DVD-ROM, Express Media Player Recovery CD and additional software.

I tried the first two CDs, hoping that the laptop start automatically on their part, and then everything will be fine. Unfortunately, nothing has happened.

Help, please. How can I format this machine and resume my busy days at the office.

See you soon

Hello George

For the installation of an operating system, you need to RECOVERY DVD. Put in the DVD player, turn on the unit and press the C key on the keyboard. Keep it down for a short period and the procedure of the facilities will begin.

If you want to preinstall the unit I recommend you create two partitions using facilities expert mode. Check it please this subject http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=4462&messageID=14518#14518

There is step by step explanation. If you want to use the Express media player again once it must be installed first before using recovery DVDs. The procedure is the same (press the C key).

Good bye

  • Need help with installing Win7 on Satellite L70-A-12W

    I bought Satellite L70-A-12W with preinstalled victory 8.1 two days ago... I have no recovery of win7, but I have Win7 64 Bit DVD new.
    I would like to install win 7. I follow the instructions concerning the closing down, on Bios (I have version 1.3) safety boot is disabled and the boot mode is MSC mode.

    I did a recovery on USB media if something with is wrong. Earn 8.1 I installed Paragon Partition Manager 14 (free version) and see the Partition Table. It UriPattern like this:
    1 partition - system - 1-GB NTFS (Partition of Service);
    2. partition (no name) - 100 MB - it's the gray color.
    3 partition (local partition) - 128 MB;
    4 partition C: (win 8.1) - Go 920 - NTFS drive.
    5. partition - recovery - 10.1 GB - NTFS (Partition OEM Service).

    I would like to keep evrything what is, if possible, and instead og Win8.1 install Win 7 ultimate 64-bit (which I have). And after than that, resize this partition of 100 GB and make a second partition private for my data - partition D: - for example.

    I did things in the BIOS and win7 DVD and got error massage: Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is of the GPT Style partition...

    I found a solution to clean the disc in the BACK, but I'm not sure that I have with this procedure will delete oll data disc. I'll guarantee loos e if I do this... If all other partitions will remain instead of C--> I can always make backup returns with media recovery with win 8.1 and hopes to keep the warranty.

    Now, I don't know what I have to do...

    I would just have win 7 on my laptop with minimal change to the partition table and all the partitions instead of C (where now is win 8.1).

    Could you please help me...

    Hello

    The question is: why you want to keep the present partitions on the HARD disk.
    Using two systems Win 8 and Win 7 on this laptop?

    The fact is that if you want to use only Windows 7, it s not appropriate to keep the old partitions on the HARD disk.

    Secondly, you already have the Toshiba Recovery flash memory stick.
    This recovery media allows you to return to the factory settings.

    This means that recover the laptop using this memory flash USB stick recovery would again create the same partitions and install the Win 8.1 System.

    Finally and above all Windows 7 supports 4 primary partitions as primary partitions are applicable to the tables of partition MBR and partition table MBR allow four primary partitions.

    After you create the primary partition 4th Windows system will accept only the volumes 'Dynamics' (logical drives). You must create an extended partition containing many logical partitions.

    However, if you use a table of GPT partition that is supported by the 64-bit Windows versions, you can configure up to 128 partitions and you need t differ between "primary" and "extended" partitions

    In addition, the GPT partition table also requires the UEFI BIOS.

  • Need help with BIOS on my Satellite L40

    Hi all

    guys I have two problems with my BIOS:

    1st. as my portable computer power does not start anything, or nothing works
    (even no sound of the fan or anything like that, no seeing covers but the power, battery covers)
    (it happened before two weeks they said that they have updated the bios)
    (it happens when my laptop is a download online or something and is running out of battery in the two times)

    2nd when it was working I could not adjust the brightness of the screen, or apply the power saving options

    So please tell me if I can reset or update my BIOS in material and how
    I use PSL4CE, Vista operating system.

    null

    > 1. as my portable computer power does not start anything, or nothing works

    (it happened before two weeks they said that they have updated the bios)
    (it happens when my laptop is a download online or something and is running out of battery in the two times)

    If I understand this problem started after the BIOS update. Maybe you used a bad BIOS or something went wrong during the BIOS update process.
    But wait; try to remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait for about 20-30 min. After this short period of time connect the two parts, and try to start Notepad.

    > So please tell me if I can reset or update my BIOS in material and how
    If the accelerated procedure described above help doesn t, then you have some many other opportunities. In case you should contact the ASP in your country and should ask for the BIOS flash may be that you're a lucky guy and the mobo is not too bad!

  • need help with formatting SD card

    If I format the sd card in my Droid phone will automatically replace the system such as the folder dcim, digital camera and other files?

    Reformatting prepares to essentially any card for use on the droid.  It clears the map and then replace all the system files that are hidden behind and you see, e.g. dcim.  Many apps put also the folders on the card, they will not be replaced before you insert the card and open applications.  The map will look like it did the first day.  Make sure that you format via the phone's settings and not windows, they format it differently and the droid will just reformat.

  • Need help with screen Blus of death (BSOD) on my computer toshiba laptop

    Hello all, Ive had a little last week, or problems with my laptop. While playing a game (minecraft), I would randomly have a BSOD error and my laptop will re-start. Initially, I gave it no thought, but when it happened again, I decided to try to do a little research, but I'm not terrible with technology and other then I'm neither the case with my own research.

    If someone could point me in the direction of a few possible ways to get this problem.

    guys do you propose I make to the store and see if they can check it out, what would I need if I did.

    I got a program to read some sort of file "dump" made when occurs a BSOD, I publish what this program here says? the program is BlueScreenView, if yes, what I have post the spectator thing? There are has 2 main screens on it, SDO as Sho different dump files (which is on the top) and on the bottom, it lists the names of different files for each dump file I think that some of them highlighted.

    im not this product with tech so I don't know much but I need to post anything on my laptop or any information of the dumpfile and would have this info help in any way to determine the problem? just tell me what I have to post and ill get the information displayed in a response, thank you.

    -leoknighted

    PS: I don't think that playing minecraft is the cause of the BSOD and crashing, but I only get it when playing minecraft, so I don't know if minecraft is causing accidents and others. I watch videos and this all the time and I never have an accident. I'll try and play a different game and see if this causes my laptop down and the cause is perhaps high usuage to my laptop, as I've said games require a lot of power of a laptop/computer, if they are not the 'best' laptop for games. but yh, if someone thinks they can help me and need some information please tell me so I can get it for you. If you guys think it would be best to get a professional to look just mylaptop say, however im save as a last resort.

  • I need help with an installation failure to interpret and troubleshoot a Setup log.

    Background: A few years ago, many editors of cinema used Final Cut Pro 6 (also contained in Final Cut Studio 2) for their editing projects.  Shared Apple Final Cut X uses a different format that is not compatible with FCP6.  Sometimes, these editors are called to work on a few historical projects that have been published in FCP6 and need this version to run now.

    Starting with OS X Lion, FCP6 would install not in Lion and thereafter.

    According research by Jeremy Johnston as noted on his blog, he discovered that Apple has inserted a file in the folder CoreServices in the Library folder of the system folder that causes versions the version Final Cut Pro X (and other older Apple programs in the same situation) do not settle.  He suggested changes to this file that would seek to prevent interfering with the installation of FCP6 in Lion, many users of final cut PRO 6 were successful in their efforts to install in Lion and work with it.

    Later in a discussion update on installing FCP6 in Mavericks, HawaiianHippie determined that the simplest way to perform the installation of FCP6 was simply copy this file and remove it from the system folder, install FCP6 and then restore the copied file:

    First of all, I need advice on how to display an extremely large Setup log in this thread (on MacRumors, it is a method to insert a 'code' in a small box that can be the object of a scrollbar if necessary to read all along).  I am unable to find such a method to post here.

    Then once approved, I need help to determine which component is causing the installation to fail and perhaps this element can be omitted from the installation:

    If this element is not required, then maybe FCP6 can be installed successfully without it.  And if that omitted element is necessary, perhaps a manual method to install it can be determined by pacifists.

    It is my goal to help those who need to install and use FCP6 on their new Macs running El Capitan.
