  Hello

  Hmm, looks like the laptop cannot restore the operating system from the recovery image
  To be honest I'm not very well why this error pops up but eventually it s m related to the new HARD drive installation.

  Perhaps, you can format the HARD drive again using a clean Microsoft Windows CD (Win XP, etc.).
  Boot from the CD of Win and format the HARD drive.
  Then go to the recovery disk, boot from the recovery disc and try reinstalling the operating system

  Maybe it would work

• Cannot activate Vista using the Portégé R500 series key

  Hello

  I have a Portege R500 with Windows Vista (Business I think).
  After a system crash I had to change the hard drive.
  I didn't have a Toshiba Vista DVD so I reinstalled Vista from a DVD of Vista Business I found in the office.

  Once a few days windows now asks for activation, in the application process for the series.

  When I have the serial number on her that I found on the botton of the laptop it says is not correct figures.

  What can I do? How to make toshiba Vista DVD?

  Best regards

  Domenico Ciccopiedi

  I totally agree with kody.

  Serial number, placed at the bottom of the device belongs to the Vista preinstalled on your laptop.
  It s version an OEM and, generally, the serial key does not work with other versions of Vista operating system.

  If you want to install and use a different Vista operating system on your laptop, you will need to use the key supplied with the installation disc.

  But in your case, I would order a new collection of Toshiba of the ASP or from this site:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  By the way; Vista on Toshiba Recovery DVD is already activated!

• Satellite L755 - creator Toshiba Recovery disk cannot be used

  I L755 series PSK2YE for 40 days, and I have a problem with the part recovery disk creator. According to me, it lacks something I simply don't have the TRDCLcher.exe in the menu. I uninstalled probably by mistake or so.

  I still have the recovery disk on D: partition.

  Is there a possible way to get this file back then I do drive recovery?

  Kind regards
  Alec

  Hello

  This means that you can start t the creator of disc recovery or what happened exactly?

  Recovery disc creator can t be reinstalled because it s only preinstalled on your laptop. I think that in this case, your only chance is to leave the drive recovery HARD option and reset Windows to the factory settings. With the box settings, you can use the recovery disk creator.

• Satellite L300 Windows 7 to Vista with Toshiba Recovery CD

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 Series (2008 model) cell, which was originally Vista but I installed Windows 7 Professional on this topic. I would now like to go back to Vista.

  I noticed that the "Windows.old" folder created on the c: / drive appears to be missing a lot of files and could have been modified since the date of that its creation. I think it would be too risky to use it to recover back to Vista.

  So my question is can I use my original Toshiba Recovery DVD set to return to Vista? I want to do a full factory reset to restore my system when it was purchased with Vista.

  If the recovery DVDs is not an option and was the only is by using the Windows.old folder, if it is missing important files so she could leave my corrupt system? I don't know there is a way to get back to Vista by restoring factory somehow.

  Comments and reactions to urgent!

  Thanks in advance.

  > So my question is can I use my original Toshiba Recovery DVD set to return to Vista?
  Without a doubt. Only using original recovery disks you will have factory settings again.

• Re: Satellite A300-1MO - can I use any Toshiba Recovery disk?

  I have an A300-1 MB.
  Can I use any Toshiba Recovery disk?
  Or is it as a specific for my A300-1 MB?

  I'm like a total noob...
  Someone pls help...!

  No, you cannot use any recovery disk, you must use the recovery disc designed for this model of laptop.
  The point is that recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package that contains the OS and Toshiba drivers
  If you want to use another recovery disc then the image would be installed with no compatible drivers and this could lead to other problems

  Every new notebook from Toshiba offers a Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool. This tool can create a recovery disk

• Install Vista Home Premium Toshiba Recovery disk

  Hello

  I question: is it possible to install Vista recovery disk without erase all data on the HARD drive and destroy the current configuration partition?

  Question II: Is it possible to to somehow 'get' the installation of Vista from Toshiba recovery disc files,
  integrate em with SP1 and train a separate Vista installation disc?

  Question III: How much space do you think I should spare for the primary partition for Vista OS only (file and all the other software will be on other partitions)?

  (1) No, it is not possible to install Vista from the Toshiba Recovery disk without format the whole HARD drive.
  You can only use the HARD drive recovery feature if you don t want to erase the whole HARD drive. Then only the first partition is erased.

  (2) No, this is not possible. The recovery disk contains factory settings in an image and you can change something. You must install SP1 after installing Windows.

  (3) you must use the 15 or 20 GB for the system partition, but if you reinstall Vista, you reinstall all of the programs. So you can install all the programs on the first partition.
  Here is a useful article on the Vista partition Manager:

• Satellite A300: Vista 64 bits after the new installation by using the recovery disk

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 A300 / M00 and when I got it, it had Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit. But after awhile, I started to have problems so I decided to reinstall Vista on my laptop. After crossing with the product recovery media, my system become so 64-bit.

  Was not my system suppose to have 32-bit when it was originally with her?
  If no, then how can I install 32 bit once more on my laptop like 64-bit gives me problems with the installation of some of my programs.

  If I need to buy a copy of Vista 32 Bit, where can I find the drivers for my system, because the product recovery media has all the drivers on this subject.

  Thank you for your time.

  Hmm. Your ad is a little confusing.

  Why would you say that Toshiba Recovery disk contains a version of Vista 64-bit?
  How did you check that?
  From my experience, the Toshiba recovery disc still contains the preinstalled operating system.

  Also as much as I know the new notebook from Toshiba are not delivered with the recovery disk, but with a HARD drive recovery option.
  This option allows you to reinstall the OS from the second partition of HARD drive recovery.
  Alternatively, you can use the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator software to create the own recovery DVDs! And this recovery disk contains the same preinstalled OS!

  Good bye

• Upgrading the Toshiba with Vista SP2 product recovery disks? (32-bit)

  Is it possible to upgrade my installation cd (I have an ISO of it file) with Service Pack 2?

  The original disc is 32-bit edition, no service pack. I ask because I think it is unnecessary to wait 2 more hours each time when I reinstall the system to service packs to be installed: s

  Any help appreciated,
  Greetings from Poland - Wyso :)

  Hello

  > Is it possible to upgrade my installation cd (I have an ISO of it file) with Service Pack 2?
  I think that this is not possible because the iso file is a package that cannot be opened again.

  But it is possible to install the OS by using the recovery disk.
  Then to install SP2 and then to create an image of the C partition.
  I did it by using the utility of Symantec Ghost.
  I create an image of my C partition, and is that something goes wrong I can retrieve the unit by using this ghost image file

• Satellite A210 - cannot use the recovery disk - error 20-DATA-048F

  I'm going to use the cause of recovery partition does not work my windows, and whenever I do it, it comes up with an error "20-DATA-048F.

  How can I fix my computer!

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Have you tried to format the HARD disk until you try to use the recovery disk?
  Sometimes, I read in the forum that this may solve the problems with the recovery disk and so you can take the Windows XP disc or another tool that is able to format the drive.

  But after that, you have the Toshiba recovery disc. You are not able to use the HARD drive recovery feature.
