Partition of hard disk for Equium L350 - 10L

Hello

I am a new owner of a L350 - 10L. Loading the files from the laptop, I was told that I had run out of space. Investigate a bit more it seems I drive hard havea partitioned. I think that I expect that the "valorisation" of files are stored on the hard drive. But the size of the partition seems a little odd to me. The disc has a pertition to Vista and a called E:\Data being 54.5 GB in size.

Question - can I safely reformat the hard drive? Should I run the Setup again. This seems a bit odd. Is there a reason for the size of partition?

Kind regards
Paul

Hello
I have the same laptop. Download GParted LiveCD and boot inside. Then resize partition D:\ lower then resize the partition above C:\ with unallocated space. Is not wipe your data.

Hope this helps,

    You need a SATA driver for new generation mobile phones are equipped with controllers SATA HDD, which needs a SATA driver.
    The key is the Intel Storage Manager.

    It contains the SATA driver for different Intel chipsets.

    I found the compatible driver here in page Intel:

    [Intel® Matrix Storage Manager: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OS FullName = Windows * + XP + Professional & lang = eng & strOSs = 44 & submit = Go % 21]

  • Need new hard disk for Equium A100

    Hello

    I want to replace the 80 GB HDD of my A100 for something big.
    I'm guessing it's a SATA, I'll need?

    Nobody knows what is the greatest, my laptop can handle without any performance?
    Just to confirm that it is a satellite A100-027

    Also, I literally get out the old one, stick in the new and then load Windows XP on it? Is it really as simple as that :/?

    Hello

    Yes, the A100 Equium supports the SATA HDD controller and so you will need a SATA 2.5 HARD disk!

    > Also, I literally get out the old one, stick in the new and then load Windows XP on it? Is it really as simple as that :/?
    Yes, the upgrade of the HARD drive is not difficult.
    In most cases, you will need to remove the HDD from the laptop's HARD drive Bay, then switch the HARD drive bracket to the new HARD drive, then insert the new HARD disc again in Notepad.

    That s it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    You n t need to install a HDD in particular of Toshiba. You can also use disk of another company.

    It is important that you use a HARD drive with support for hardware specifications.

    I found these useful discussions on the replacement of the HDD on the Satellite and Equium A60:

  • Compatible replacement optical drive CD-DVD for Equium L350 - 10L

    Hello

    a cd got introduced in the drive and I can't, then you need to replace the CD player in my laptop.

    Anyone would be able to tell me what brand/model compatible with this model or I can buy any player?

    "" I saw a slim drive of ' Techguys CD-DVD "PC World - would that be ok?
    I'll find someone else to adapt to it that I don't have any idea how out the CD.
    He previously worked with other discs and it was laid flat in the tray - now the drawer does not close.

    Hope someone out there can give me some advice on why it happened suddenly and what new drive to substitute for the purchase.

    Thank you.

    > a cd got introduced in the drive and I can't, then you need to replace the CD player in my laptop.

    You are not able to open the CD/DVD drive.
    There is a little near the eject button.
    You will need to put a small wire or another object in this set to eject the CD or DVD.
    It is a last option if the eject button does not work.

    PS: in the manual of the laptop you should be able to find information on compatible CD/DVD players.

    Hello Carol

    Just in a few words: If your laptop is preinstalled with Vista original recovery image please make sure that the HARD drive has two partitions (C and D also check disk management). Windows XP must be installed on the second partition. For the installation of Windows XP Home edition, you need Storage Manager. Without this Storage Manager disk HARD won't be visible for the installation of Windows XP Home edition CD.

    On this forum, you will find number of threads with the exact description how do.

    At the end you must start Manager. Using this boot manager, you will be able to choose which operating system you want to use.

    If you have any other questions please post again.

    Hello

    It is important to doesn´t if toshiba does not explicitly have the F6Floppy drivers for your machine. You can go to www.intel.com and download the drivers from F6Floppy from there.

    On the issue of the 'no-floppy", you can easily find a way just in slipstreaming with nlite for self made Win2003 Server drivers CD.

    To learn more about "slipstreaming" CD with nLite, simply type 'Nlite slipstream XP ICHM8' or some of these words in google and you will find all THE answers. Or you use the forum search and find only 10000 messages on this slipstreaming with nlite, etc...

  • Equium L350 - 10L - memory upgrade question

    Hello

    I have the Equium L350 - 10L. Is it possible to upgrade the memory on my laptop. For the moment, it has 2GB (2x1GB).

    Thank you

    Of course you can upgrade the RAM.
    Did you look in the manual that was stored on the laptop?
    I think that you should do this it can you did many details, photos and any other information regarding the upgrade of RAM.

    Check the memory extension Chapter 8 option aircraft.

    In addition, you should know that if you would upgrade the RAM to 4 GB then your 32-bit Windows system will see ONLY 3.2 GB.
    So if you want to use full 4 GB, you will need to change the operating system to 64-bit.

    In my opinion, 3 GB of RAM are more than enough

    I've not seen / heard of successful use of the flash drive for recovery purposes. The default software using optical disk, when I used it on my G580.

    If your laptop does not have a CD / DVD burner, you may need to contact them directly to discuss this option.

    As to where he is? It is a hidden partition on the hard drive, is usually not accessible.

    Cloning the hard drive can not return to that partition hidden - it would be a little bit the clone of the drive to work.

    I recommend to download your manual of maintenance on the Support site and learn more about the 100% specific for your laptop recovery process.

  • Re: Equium L350 - 10L - start with battery power

    I just bought an Equium L350 - 10L. When he arrived, he has been turned on using the battery and started installing Windows. However, the battery expired and I can't cross the message of "close unexpectedly" even after reboot.

    How can I go back to square one and restart the installation process? Advice.

    Oh buddy, a stupid idea. I really do not understand you. After several weeks or months in the box, maybe it makes sense that the battery cannot run with full capacity.

    In any case, connect your laptop to power supply and leave it for a while. Departure for laptop to see what will happen. If the installation process can not be finished early new laptop computer and immediately press F8. First option to choose repair my computer and follow the on-screen menu. The OS will be installed again and you will be able to complete the operating system installation process.

  • I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!

    I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!

    You can add another drive to accept backups Time Machine... assuming it is correctly formatted for Mac to Mac OS extended (journaled), but things are not exactly "continue."

    You have not indicated if you intend to add the player to the USB port on the Time Capsule, or connect directly to your computer using USB or FireWire connections. Or the other method works, with the option to connect directly to the computer being the faster connection.

    Once the disc is added, you would go in Time Machine preferences (click the "clock" at the top of the screen on your Mac) to add the disk for Time Machine backups and delete the old Time Capsule disk, since backups will go is no longer this destination.

    Since you have a new drive, Time Machine will do a new full backup of your Mac and then go forward with incremental backups.

  • Workstation 8 Shared VMs on different hard disks for autostart

    Hi people:

    Is anyway to take advantage of the feature work station 8 sharing VMs autostart with the start-up of the host OS, but have several virtual machines on different hard drives? Ideally, I would like to have VMs on separate hard disks for performance problems. \

    I really don't want to go on the road of ESXi right now. Is it possible to "autostart" other than via the shared "VMs" component of VMware workstation VMs 8? I think this would be a trivial feature to add to the workstation 8 and would make great useful for young kids like me.

  • Question Equium L350 - 10L new HARD drive and recovery

    Hi all.

    My L350 - 10L has a HD death. Just does not start. I tried the HARD drive recovery system, but after it formatted the HD I got a message saying that the image file is corrupted. I removed the HD and connected to my desktop to save personal files (before I tried the recovery) and there were real issues reading the disc. I got most of the documents & E-mail eventually (had to run a lot of check disk runs using a 3rd party disk partition software). I think that the drive is actually physically damaged somehow.

    I'll need to buy a new set of Toshiba recovery disks (too long a story to explain, but it's basically my fault), but my main question is this: if I buy a new HD still recovery disks to restore my system to its original state even if it isn't the original HD? There, I guess I mean will the recovery discs recreate the 3 partitions - WinRE (Hidden), Vista C: and D: data and set the correct boot and information industries? And I suppose that a secondary question who would be the HD should be the same size as the original one (120 GB said / 111GB actually)?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    > Over there, I guess I mean will the recovery discs recreate the 3 partitions - WinRE (Hidden), Vista C: and D: data and set the correct boot and information industries?
    The Toshiba Recovery disk will define the laptop (and HARD drive), the factory settings.
    This means that the recovery DVDs will format the whole HARD drive and it will create the partitions and all the rest as on the first day of purchase.

    I hope I could bring a precision...
