Portege M300 (PPM30A) - lost access to HARD drive recovery

Portege M300 model PPM30A-02E001.
At some point during the installation a Sony camera I lost access to my hidden partition (HDDRECOVERY) where I can make the recovery disks.

I can see it in disk management tools, but the link is missing.

Is there a way I can make the link? "Brand recovery disc" icon is gone as well.

Please, I beg you.

Hello

Wait a moment, please: why you write about on the hidden partition HARD drive recovery? I think you mixed up something!
On Vista and Windows 7, there is a hidden partition, but it has nothing to do with the option HDDrecovery from Toshiba. This on the hidden partition is a feature of Windows, also called Windows recovery environment!

Normally HDDrecovery files are stored on the second partition in a file of the same name. Can you access the second partition?

If this isn't the case, I think the only chance is to order a new recovery disk. Therefore, you must contact the service provider authorized in your country.

    Hello

    Usually it s any manufacturer is.
    If the HARD disk supports the CHIP so it should be possible to use this HARD drive.
    The HARD disk protection tool verifies the parameters of the HARD disk.
    But the settings are configured by HDD manufacture then it might be possible that the HARD disk will not work if the tool would not choose the settings correctly.

  • Satellite L650-11F - how to access HARD drive recovery?

    Hello!

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L650-11F.

    The other day I had a huge massive Goner virus (lol) and the computer is turned off. Whenever I tried to turn it on, it started to load Windows, and then restart. I tried to start Windows in safe mode but the same thing happened, just keep restarting. I tried to repair Windows (by pressing f8 and etc.) and without success, he kept restarting.

    So I tried to put it because it came from fabric and when I press 0 or F1 happears just 2 options: choose an opperating system to start or press tab to select a tool: Windows 7 tools: Windows memory diagnostic

    Can you help me please? Is there another way I can access the hidden hard drive recovery partition? Please :(

    Hi dakova,.

    Ist it Toshiba's original OS is still installed? I ask this question because it of necessary for the recovery of HARD drive. If you have installed another OS, you can access t HARD drive recovery option.
    In addition, recovery of HARD drive option is available if you press the F8 key before Windows starts. In the advanced boot menu, select fix my computer. The exact procedure is described here:

    Alternative, you can take the Toshiba recovery disc. This will also restore the original settings. :)

  • I am trying to access my hard drive for some records and my file photo in windows vista after it has been formatted.

    My laptop after runing battery accident, I cannot restore and re-installed was the only solution, I thought I had backup all files, but my photo files is missing and an other files that were in my office. I need assistance to access the hard drive if possible, I said it can be done.

    If you formatted the drive and reinstalled Vista, data is almost certainly lost to conventional methods of recovery...

    You can try this program:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/Recuva.html

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.

    If the above does not resolve the problem, you will need to contact the Date recovery Experts.
    Be warned: they are very $$$

    See you soon.

    Hello

I did it in the past of the system while now the key 0 down however now I see when I do it is the label of "HARD Drive Recovery Mode" down left and then the operating system loads normally.

    No idea what is the problem here? How can I force the recovery process?

    Hello

    HARD drive recovery option is available when the laptop to factory settings.
    >... after a new of windows 7 has been installed on the system.
    If you have installed your own Windows version HARD drive recovery option is no longer available.
    In this case, you can install original recovery image using recovery media (DVD).
    You have created the media according to the instructions described in the user s manuals document?

  • How to access the hard drive USB on E3000? Am I missing something?

    I have my router configuration fine to the internet, as well as the media server.  I can't understand how to access the hard drive of my laptop, however.  The manual says to put 192.168.1.1 in the field the address of windows Explorer, but it gives me just the 'Setup' page for the router.

    Am I missing something simple?  I use Windows XP.

    Click on start - go to start > Run/start search and type "\\192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press on enter and it should ask the user name and password, the user name and password, use "admin" all lower case, and then click Ok... Now you should be able to see your USB... You must make a right click on it and select "Map network drive" and check the Enable box and below click Finish... It will map the USB on your computer... Once done, you will be able to send and receive data from your computer to the USB...

    The easiest way is to use a USB to SATA or IDE USB adapter. (most of the adapters offer both).

  • Cannot access old hard drive

    I'm trying to access a hard drive using Windows XP on a portable computer that uses Windows 7. I continue to turn in "inaccessible" and "you don't have the required permissions. When I plug the hard drive via USB to an another computer XP it works fine. I can't find a Security tab allows to work with. I searched and checked other forums who have discussions on this subject and the answers do not help. I'm looking for a free way access.

    Originally, none of this has worked. I had accidentally figured it out. I opened it while on a XP computer and now it appears in Windows 7. I still have no idea why.

  • Re: No HARD drive recovery on Satellite S995D-S5374 area

    I can't do a recovery disc, it says that there is no HDD Recovery area.

    The situation was like that, I wanted to decrease the size of the C drive. I did it with a program and then windows could not start and went to do so more and more.

    I used a different windows installation disc 8. I used the reset option. And the computer started as if it was just a box, the only difference was that my files were intact and also my account on win8. Although scores are one in trouble.

    Now, it looks like this:

    I can not access the half of my hard disk space. There is recovery partition as you can see, but I can not burn a recovery disk...

    I tried to do what he says here (opening the HARD drive recovery process), but it failed. I get the screen where it says
    my pc need to be repaired and nothing was found or can not be found to achieve this.

    Yes, guyes, * please help *. I want my rear disc space and if it is possible to make a recovery disk. As I can access the recovery partition in my computer, can't do a drive recovery here?

    p.s. in disk management, when I right click on the partition "Data", it is said that 'Help' and nothing more.

    p.p.s. I Satellite S995D-S5374. And there was no disk recovery with it when I bought it.

    In recent years, Toshiba doesn't offer recovery discs with new models of laptops with recovery media must be created by the owner of the laptop. It is clearly described in the document s user manuals.

    Recovery media can be created if the laptop has only factory settings. As I see that you have changed the structure of the partitions and that was the big mistake. Of course you can do, but at the first recovery media must be created.

    Please read the last post on http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=140985

    Sorry, but now you cannot create recovery media or start HARD recovery disk image installation.
    If you want to have the recovery disk and use it to recovery image installation, you need to order a new drive for https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    Hello

    And what exactly is happening now? You have a black screen?

    To me that sounds like it, something goes wrong in the installation of HARD drive recovery then I recommend reinstall Windows again since the middle of recovery that you created on USB or external CD/DVD drive. This can restore Windows again.

    Theoretically, it could also be a hardware problem but I would try the middle of recovery recovery facility that s my personal opinion. ;)
