On my Satellite L650/OE8 new disk partition

I just booted my OE8/new Satellite L650, as Windows 7 Home Premium. During the installation, was asked on the partitioning of the hard drive. I wanted to be able to keep the OS, applications and program files in a small partition, leaving the majority of the space in a second partition (disk space 640Go Total) for free music, documents, videos, etc.

So I said yes, do the first 100 GB partition. Now, the computer is running, I see my drive C has a capacity of 100 GB, but the rest of my available disk space is invisible, I seem to have lost it! Can someone tell me please how to recover the situation?

Hello

It is not visible to Windows Explorer. You must activate or create this second partition.

Follow it please:
Open Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management choose disk on the left side and you will see the structure of HARD disk partition.
There must be some free space / unallocated marked with black color.
Click with the right button of the mouse and choose the option create new logical drive.

  • Satellite Pro A210 1AZ Disk Partitions

    Hello

    Hope someone can explain to me. We have two Satellite Pro A210 1AZ identical machines, Windows Vista Home, 120 GB of disk. They have two partitions on the disk in the computer. C: Vista is 56.2 GB and data E: is 54.0 GB. I guess there are other accounts hidden for the missing 10 GB partition and I guess that is the recovery partition.

    My problem is the following. Everything written in C:, programs, Documents etc., and it is more or less complete. The E: is not used. Why is there an E: partition? Why not a single 110GB C:?

    I know that I can copy files on the E: partition but trying I find annoying. My wife doesn't understand anything on the partitions, folders and files and just wants everything to be where you expect it to be - in Documents or photos. Seems reasonable.

    What can I do to get rid of the E: thing and have just a large C:?

    NB - I have no interest is messing around with the PC, I want to just use it and forget about it.

    Thank you

    Fred

    Hello Fred

    I don't know how much experience you have with the PC, but it is usual to divide the hard driver to two or more partitions. each partition can have a different name and you can save specific data on the specific partition.

    For example, I have three partitions:
    C for the operating system
    Private D for stuff like photos, movies and mp3 files and
    E for Business stuff

    Anyway, if you want to have a (the ability of the entire HARD disk) partition, you can delete second partition and expand the C partition to use any HARD drive capacity.
    Open Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management.

    In the left pane, under storage category, click on disk management
    Now select and right mouse button click on the partition that you want to change.
    In the context menu, you will see options to extend, reduce or remove the partition. Select the option you want.
    If your 2nd partition is empty, you can remove the 2nd partition, and then expand the 1st partition to use the freed up space.

  • Satellite PRO A10 new HDD partition with 80 GB HARD drive

    I've recently updated the original 30 GB HARD drive for a 80 GB HARD drive. I used the recovery CD and all is well.

    The old laptop is now as good as new again.

    I notice that rather than having a c: drive of 80 GB, recovery utility has given me 3 partitions in about 25 GB each (c: d:, and e :).) They were originally FAT32 although I changed it to NTFS.

    My question is can I remove e: and d: partitions and then increase the size of the c: up to the maximum size possible (approx. 75 GB)? I know that windows xp can handle, but I don't know if the BIOS can or even why 3 partitions have been created in the first place.

    Post edited by: dim33

    To be honest I m really surprised that there are 3 partitions after the recovery procedure. I got many old books as your A10 and newer seen this.
    In any case go to disk management and try to create partitions on the way you want it to be.

    In my opinion you should have the C partition with 25 or 30 GB and the second 50 GB partition for the data record. Don t use a partition only. If something does not go the whole partition must be deleted and you will lose all of your stored data. It is always better to have the second partition for data backup.

    In the worst case (you cannot start OS), you can install Windows XP Home edition on the first partition, boot OS and have full access to all stored data.

  • Satellite L650 (PSK1EA) new installation - how?

    Hello

    my hard drive in the recently broken L650 (PSK1EA).
    I intend to buy a new one and replace only snag is that I never backed up my old one.

    I know I have to buy windows again, but what other things do I need.
    where can I get and when I install (before or after windows)?

    Thanks in advance

    > I know I have to buy windows again, but what other things do I need.

    You don't need t buy Windows system again, you can order a recovery disc for this laptop here:
    http://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

    Then you should start from the first disc to start the recovery procedure
    Then the (Windows) system, drivers Toshiba and all the tools that were pre-installed on the laptop would be installed.

    That s easier ;)

  • Disk failure hard satellite L650-12N - replaced with SSD - how to recover?

    My HARD drive has failed, so I bought a 256 GB SSD Crucial CT256MX100SSD1. I installed it in the laptop and went to use the recovery CD. It's the bit score correctly as far as I can tell, but to cut a long story short, I think that the recovery disk is missing a few vital pieces of information (read below - I may be wrong).

    So, how do for Satellite L650-12N new recovery discs?

    Thank you

    After the partition, it then says "copy files of database recovery.
    some random jargon

    Then he said: «unpack the OS and system/WinRE»
    Set of RECO...
    It says "copy F:\ZZImg\11353XSP.swm to V:\HDDRecovery\SWImg 1/10
    1 file (s) copied.
    Copy of the CRC files
    1 file (s) copied.
    Copy F:\ZZImg\11353XSP2.swm to V:\HDDRecovery\SWImg 2/10
    1 file (s) copied.
    Copy of F:\ZZImg\11353XSP3.swm to V:\HDDRecovery\SWImg 3/10
    1 file (s) copied.
    Copy of F:\ZZImg\11353XSP4.swm to V:\HDDRecovery\SWImg 4/10
    1 file (s) copied.
    Copy of F:\ZZImg\11353XSP5.swm V:\HDDRecovery\SWImg 5/10
    1 file (s) copied. »

    at this stage it says ' insert the next recovery media (containing the F:\ZZImg\11353XSP6.swm file)!
    but the backup I did only has one drive.

    Hmm, for me, it seems that some image packages are missing.
    According to your message, the recovery image must contain 10 packs, but the first recovery disc provides only 5 packages.
    Should be so 2nd drive providing other packages to complete the recovery procedure.

    I m wondering if you already used the recovery disc (CD) in the past.
    Are you sure that this recovery disc has been done correctly 100%?

    From my point of few recovery disk is defective and to recover the laptop, you need a good way to return to work.

  • Satellite l.660-12 q - would the recovery disk rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition

    Talk about confusion. Does anyone know how to get a Toshiba C660 work after the HARD drive failed and the owner has stupidly NOT followed the instructions to make a recovery disk. Will be the recovery disk (if buy you one from Toshiba) rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition and install windows 7 (original OS) and accept the product key printed on the Windows license, attached to the base of the laptop. I have read a number of suggestions, but these have been considered incorrect by others.

    Surely, Toshiba must have a way to sort this problem.

    They read these messages?

    Hey Buddy

    I don't think it's really complicated, that I could find all the information about the recovery procedure in the user's manual

    The recovery disk must be created on the first day of purchase its recommended to create one in case something would be wrong with the HARD drive.

    The recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package containing Win system, drivers, tools and all the stuff pre-installed on the notebook.
    You bought the laptop and the system has already been activated so that you have need of t the key placed at the bottom of the unit.
    In addition, the use of the recovery disc formats the drive HARD integer (partitions too) and set the laptop in the same condition as at the first day of the purchase.

    There is also another option to recover the notebook called HARD drive recovery. This HARD drive recovery requires no recovery disk. The recovery disc HARD would be to use format ONLY partition C (System).

    Hello!

    I have the Satellite L650 - 10H and I want to format it to install WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE.
    So I tried to format and do a new partition on my hard drive and I used acronis Disk Director 11 and may not see the hard drive!
    Same magic 8 partition or server paragon 10 and no software can see the hard drive!

    In the same way, I tried to make an image on my hard drive and acronis true image 2010 do not.
    Only GHOST15 see the hard drive and make an image, but it can change partitions.

    In the bios I've seen something that maby can do to this problem and in the drivers I have found no update of the bios on this situation.

    important to know that I used acronis disk Director from a boot able disk and paragon Yes and others, but even if some software have the problem with a hard drive, the other read him but here no budy can see!

    so I'm askink what is problem? something in this laptop is different from the others I'm know.what is the sulotion for this problem?

    pls help your young

    Thank you

    Hello

    > important to know I used Director a boot able disk drive acronis and paragon

    Hmmm... Also, I use the paragon 10 Server to create partitions. But why are you trying to create a startup disk? Install the server paragon 10 on your computer, and then make the best partition size.

  • Satellite L650/OED - out of disk space

    Hello

    I just bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite L650/OED, and stated in the specifications, storage is 640 GB, but the only hard drive in my computer after I first initalized, it is only 583GB, what's missing?

    And I have read the user menu and found that there is a recovery partition which has been hidden, so how can I find this partition?

    It seems that the default setting for this laptop is that there is only one disk hard C, but no other disk dirve D or E. So, how can I protect my files once I need to reformat the C?

    Thank you

    Hi TYQ,.

    I think the problem is that you always less disk space that you can find on the specifications on the HARD drive. On Wikipedia, there is an interesting article on the measures of capacity:
    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#capacity

    As you can see, everything is ok with your disk ;)

    With regard to the recovery partition: you should see when you go into Windows disk management. But if you remove it, you aren't able to use HARD drive recovery.

  • Satellite L650 - Windows detected a hard disk problem

    I have 9 as 4 months old satellite L650 that this microsoft Windows message keeps popping up. "Windows detected a hard disk problem, back up your files immediately to prevent the loss of information... etc" have I not a bum hard drive or is it a mistake?
    I have
    have the media discs to recover and this means that I have to reformat the HARD drive and try again. !

    Hi watthhel,

    I think the error message must be correct to Windows 7 and you must do what tells you the message: immediately back up your data and replace the HARD drive with a new one. In your case I would never save important files on the HARD drive. Too risky to lose important files

    Your laptop is 4 months old and that would mean it s covered by the warranty. Contact your local authorized service provider and ask for a replacement drive. They will exchange it and the service is free. :)

  • Satellite L650-12 q - Flashcard issues new

    Model: Satellite L650-12 q

    Hello.

    In 2010, I thought I had solved this problem.
    Please see this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/message.jspa?MessageID=212557#212557

    Unfortunately, I seem to have similar problems again, even if I don't remember to make changes that could have been the cause.

    I tried everything suggested on other threads I've seen, including the value added package download, but the still flashcards do not appear when I press the "fn". I tried to add a shortcut to TCrdMain.exe in my "start" menu, and appears to start/Configuration of the system in the form "TfcRst" (ticked), it is listed as "unknown manufacturer.

    I also checked that in 'Parameters of Flashcards' the 'disable all function keys' is unchecked.

    Often, when I start/re-start my computer, I get the message:

    + "Windows cannot find"TCrdMain.exe". Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. » +

    Then when I see the shortcut in the "Startup" folder disappeared.

    I also copied a shortcut to TfcRst on your desktop in order to restart the flashcards. When I click on this, the flashcards reappear properly when I press the "fn". Even when I do not "restarted" cards flash in this way, however, the key "fn" still usable in conjunction with the function to mute sound and brighten up keys and brightness; It's just that flash cards do not appear in the upper part of the screen.

    Obviously, this isn't a significant and insurmountable problem: I can always use the functions of flashcard without the flashcards appearing and, by clicking the shortcut on the desktop, can restore the appearance of the flashcards if I want. I find it interesting that this situation prevails and am wondering if anyone here can offer an explanation or compensation.

    I would be very grateful for any advice.

    I have no explanation for this, as for many other issues using windows systems.
    It is possible that the system is confused maybe something wrong with the registry, who knows

    The error message: "Windows cannot find"TCrdMain.exe". Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again"is very interesting and in my opinion, it might appear because"TCrdMain.exe"is not found in the folder or access has been locked by an other anti spy, firewall or antivirus software

    I also recommend to choose the last PPV has published new series.
    Clean the registry with CCleaner and reboot the device.

    But I'm scared, finally, you will need to retrieve the device to factory settings to repair m

    Hello!

    I have the Toshiba Satellite L650 - 1 M 0, and I can't install the new drivers for my graphics card: Mobility Radeon HD 5650 from the AMD website. Why can't I do it? I want to install the latest display drivers, because I have problems with the display mode. My laptop is set to 16:9, but some programs display in 4:3.

    Please give the latest drivers on the Toshiba site or tell me what can I do to download the drivers from the website of AMD. I have Windows 7 64 x;).

    > Why can't I do it?
    I m wondering really you ask something like that. It is well known that the support for mobile devices (laptops) is offered by laptop manufacturer and not by the hardware manufacturer.

    Because of the design of specific laptops with limited cooling performance graphics card can not be upgraded as on maps graphics designed for desktop computers. New driver means more performance. More performance means more heat and result can be damage of graphics card or switch-offs due to temperature-critical material.

  • Need for new drivers graphics for Satellite L650

    Hi all

    I'll explain my situation, I think that many others have this same problem with the toshiba now.
    There is 1 year and some months pass after I got my first laptop Toshiba Satellite L650-11F and at first I thought this computer will work without problems for at least 2 years. Well, today I found a 'BIG' problem with the toshiba... I can't install the new drivers for my graphics card AMD ATI Mobility RADEON HD 5650 driver AMD's official website.

    Today I buy Battlefield 3 for my machine, but my drivers are old, cannot properly manage the graphics and the solution is to download the new drivers from AMD, but it is impossible. What I'm asking is for the Toshiba Dev new pilots ready AMD download as quickly as possible, because right now, I had in hands a game that was supposed to operate without a problem and the old drivers killed the game completely.

    I get all the time new drivers for WIFI all the time, I don't need that. My graphics card is not updates for almost 1 year, is a joke!

    It is well known that display or graphic drivers for mobile devices (laptops) should be downloaded from the laptop manufacturer's download page. The proposed drivers should be tested. Many people have reported the same thing, but in general, it is not new.

    Mobile units have a specific design built in cooling system is designed to cool the material placed in laptop Briefcase. New strength of graphics card drivers can force a graphics card to run with more power and offer more performance. More performance means more heat. If the cooling cooling system canoe result graphic adapter will be overheating or even damage the equipment.

    The reason why the manufacturers of portable don t which s provide drivers of graphics update so often that the manufacturers of cards designed for desktop computers.

    Another thing: the series laptops are not the best machines for the games. I have used several laptops from Toshiba in the past, and this is my personal opinion.
