  Hello, Michelle

  This means that you have created two DVD-R virgins for the installation of recovery?
  Please, start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly. When the boot menu appears put the first recovery DVD in the optical disc drive in the menu, choose the CD/DVD and start the installation with the button ENTER.

  You can also try to start installation of recovery image stored on the HARD drive.

  If you didn't change anything about this either on the second partition of HARD drive, try it please follow:
  Start your laptop and press F8 immediately several times to enter Advanced Startup Options. If everything is OK the first option, to fix my computer. If this option is available, please choose and run with the button ENTER.

  Then simply follow the menu on the screen and you will enter in the System Recovery Options. The last option should be Toshiba Recovery option. Please use this option to start the recovery image installation.
  As I've written before, this should work if you didn't change the default settings.

  Hello

  You didn t receive a disk that this laptop because this phone has been equipped with a recovery procedure internal.
  This allows you to reinstall the operating system using the disk HARD recovery option.

  In addition, you can find a preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator on this laptop. There should be a shortcut on the desktop.

  This tool lets you create a clean recovery disc! And this is highly recommended!
  You need this disc if something goes wrong with the HARD drive!

  Thus, create the recovery disk before you change anything on the HARD drive.

• Satellite L350-170 - sounds of clanking from the HARD drive

  My laptop Satellite L350-170 performs a kind of rattling noise when the hard drive light flashes.
  Is this normal because this is a replacement one but that I had did not all sounds.

  Hello

  It is very difficult to say why this noise appears.
  I have two laptops. On a laptop, the HARD drive clicks and creates its strange but 4 years it worked correctly.
  The other HDD doesn t create sounds

  So, as you can see not really easy to tell what could cause this noise of rattle, but I recommend creating a file backup.
  In the worst cases could die your HARD drive and as a result, a backup is always recommended.

  You said that the HARD drive has been changed so maybe you should ask ASP for more details and maybe this HARD drive will be replaced again.

• Satellite L350-170 - downgrade from Vista to XP

  Part No.: PSLD8E

  Heya I write about the downgrade from Vista to XP.

I have Vista Home Premium, I was trolling internet reading how to etc... Some forums said that some manufacturers of computer/laptop can provide a Vista 2 XP disks. I was wondering does toshiba?

Is there a risk of bricking my laptop? could u do a list of things that I would need and a guide step by step on how downgrade but remembering I'm not a computer very know how nobody so keep it very basic =)
  Also - what is void your warranty? I would be able to send my laptop for toshiba and they do?

  Hello!

  Downgrade from Vista to XP isn't very difficult and it should be possible that you can do yourself.

  You need at least one drive in Microsoft Windows XP with SP2. Boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. But you need the SATA drivers, the computer can recognize the HARD drive. For drivers, you need Intel Storage Manager, which can be downloaded on the site of Toshiba and this is workaround step by step how to do this:

  If you have installed XP, you must install all the drivers and tools for this. All what you need you can find on the Toshiba site:

• Question - loop on Satellite L350-170 Windows error recovery

  Toshiba Satellite L350-170 - Intel Pentium Dual Core T3200 2.00 GHz, 2 GB, 250 GB, 17 "TFT, DVDSM, VHP

  My wife bought three weeks ago. Use of the lamp. Everything works fine, until a dialogue of "Startup Repair" appeared. Since then, the machine starts.

  Machine goes into "Windows Error Recovery" immediately after the Toshiba start screen and has the following options;
  (1) run the Startup Repair tool
  (2) start Windows normally

  Option 2 results in a blank screen and finally goes back to the screen "Windows Error Recovery".

  Option 1 has the reboot dialog box;

  "Your computer was unable to start.
  Startup Repair is checking your system for problems... »

  At this point, the Toshiba laptop enters an endless loop.

  So what I do now? There is no disc came with the laptop, so I can't reinstall the operating system. The dealer (Comet) is less useful and don't know no refund or Exchange for a defective product.

  Can someone please!

  Try this:

  Press F8 immediately after that the laptop has been turned on.
  Then choose the first option called fix my computer.
  Then a new window should open and there you can choose the option called Toshiba recovery.

  Please note then this procedure would start the Toshiba HDD recovery and the BONE to relocate again. This would be to format the whole HARD drive and set the OS to the factory settings.

  In my eyes, you can use this procedure for recovery of HARD drive, or you can try to reinstall the OS using the Toshiba recovery disc.
  Both lead to the same results

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite L350-170 - WiFi stops and starts

  Hello

  I have the Toshiba Satellite L350-170 and it's great. I am running Vista 32 bit and I got it for Christmas ' 08.

  For a while now, just WiFi stop (if I use the webcam on msn or something) as if it is just overloaded, then I had to wait a few minutes before it turns back again!

  Is there a driver to stay connected to the internet? In my taskbar, it is said that I am always connected, and when I check on ConfigFree (when I can't use the internet, but it says I * am * logged.)

  This can be solved?
  I hope you can help!

  Kind regards
  James K

  Hi James,

  Maybe this problem is caused by the router. You should check the log of it. The router is always connected interruptions?
  In this case an update would be desirable and let the ISP, check your Internet connection.

  In addition, you can try updating the driver WLAN. The latest version is available for download on the Toshiba site.

  Insert disk 1 into the optical disc drive
  In the list, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER

  ODD must start to read the disc and you should see something on the screen.

• Is satellite L350-170 - possible to use the laptop as external monitor

  Ok... So I broke the other day to the top of my screen on my laptop, and was amazing, if it is possible to use another laptop as an external monitor.

  while I put my files on an external hard drive

  or isit only possible connection to the pc?

  Hello

  It would be possible to use the second laptop as an external display ONLY if the computer a laptop would support the video port line-in to the receipt of the video signal.

  But the most common books supports the only video out s-Video port or a vga port, and in this case, you will not be able to use the laptop as a second monitor external.

  For example, the Satellite L350-170 supports only the RGB port that allow you to connect this laptop to external monitor but you can not use this laptop as compensation for external monitor.

  See you soon

• Satellite L350-170 - number of the motherboard?

  Hi guys,.

  I need the motherboard reference number a Toshiba Satellite L350-170. I should be grateful if you would help. Thank you.

  Hi varioxx,

  The problem is that here you can talk with normal like you and me only, and we don t have access to Toshiba databases to verify the part number.

  So I think you need to contact a service provider allowed in your country and ask the guys for part number. You can give them a call, for example, I think he should take a few minutes to get the part number of technicians.
  And by the way: guys can order the motherboard too!

  You can find a list of aspic here:

• New recovery for Satellite L350-170 discs save updates?

  I just restored my Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit OS on my Toshiba Satellite L350-170, using the recovery disks that I created 4 years when I bought my laptop.

  After you restore the operating system, it took the better part of a day to install all the Microsoft updates, including Service Pack 2 Vista and other programs that I use (e.g. MS Office, Real player, AVG etc.).

  Now everything is up to date, I have created a new hard disk system restore point and run the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. Just out of curiosity, will be created until the last restore point recovery disks or it again just the discs that I have, that restore it to factory settings?

  If this only restores to factory settings, is there a way to create a system disk to get back to the point that it is now?

  Creation of recovery disks has nothing to do with the points and restore your settings.
  Recovery recorded on the HARD disk image is created long ago and contains all the necessary parameters created at this time.

  Creator of recovery disc just copy this recovery image on empty media.

  Whenever you use recovery discs, you will own BONES without updates and you must repeat this installation of additional updates.

• Display Satellite L350-170 went funny pictures

  Hello

  I have a Satellite L350-170, but display went funny photos began to look like negatives and colors are not the same as and there are like ghost screens under my current screen.
  I tried unistalling drivers and reinstall but it's just the same

  Any help with this would be appreciated thanks

  Hello

  Test the laptop as part of the external monitor.
  Check if the same funny images would be visible on the external monitor.
  I think that if the same will appear on the second monitor, the problem might be related to the graphics card.

  In this case, replace the motherboard with the GPU chip.

• Should what cable I connect Satellite L350-170 on my TV?

  I have a simple question... What cable should I connect and view my Satellite L350-170 on my TV?

  Hello

  How to check the manual?

  As much as I know L350-170 does not support the TV out port.

  So that it supports only a VGA port.
  If your TV supports a VGA port (some LCD this) then you can use and VGA cable

• Can't see the number of COA to my Satellite L350-170

  Hello

  I just wanted to ask I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L350-170 and the sticker on the underside that CoA is all gone and cannot see all numbers or anything about it either and now today have noticed the band interleaved the vista COA silver strip comes out is the certificate of authenticity.

  Not my broof I own a legal copy of windows vista. Is there anywhere online I can order a new COA I could asell remove it as looks a right mess is easy to remove or he will leave a clue sticky nast and should never, I sell the laptop it will be always legal with no sticker on.

  Why Microsoft did not cost as on Vista. They would never then fade.
  Thanks for any info.

  Hello Pulse

  The AOC is not so important. Your laptop model comes with the pre-installed operating system and this number belongs to the version preinstalled only and you can not use this number with any other installation of the OS.

  When you use the recovery image for the installation of the OS that you should not enable using this number, so when you go to sell your laptop just be sure next owner will get original Toshiba DVD facilities.
  "I just hope that you created using preinstalled" Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. Do you have?
