Problems of recovery on the Satellite C650-182

I'm trying to fix a friends computer, it has formatted and deleted all the partitions on the hard drive and tried to install Windows 7 but still get the message that the installation can be done?

The following is the error message when trying to install: "windows cannot be installed to this disk. This hardware of computers may not support booting to this disk. Make sure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu.

Then, he said the following: windows cannot be installed to this disk. "The disk may not soon."

I know that the hard drive is fine!

The complete model number is: Toshiba Satellite C650-182 part no: PSC08E-02J001EN

Any help would be wonderful.

Are you using the original Toshiba recovery DVD for the installation of the OS?
Your friend has created this disk in the past?

Before you begin installation of recovery BIOS default value.

  • Waste of space on the hard disk on the Satellite C650 - 15 X

    Hello

    I found a problem on my laptop Toshiba Satellite C650-15 X (almost new), I bought several months ago. It has a drive hard 500 GB volume in 2 partitions: C and D-with 250 GB each; and Windows 7 Premium 64-bit operating system.

    There is something strange about the partition D: it is 225 GB of missing! After scoring all of the files in the partition D > properties, there are only 25 GB in use and really little or no free space! There isn't any system or other files with this 25 GB. More than 220 GB in partition D is simply disappeared.

    C partition looks normal. Tried all known Windows tools: check disk, defragmentation, convenience stores, etc. without results. Any suggestion or idea what s happened past and how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

    Can you please open Computer Management > disk management. Make a screenshot and post it here.

  • Hard drives on the Satellite C650-198

    I have a Satellite C650-198 running Windows 7 (64-bit) and notice that the size of the 250 GB drive is divided into two main readers of 116 GB each (I accept that the remaining 18 GB is the section of system recovery and have no problem there).

    I reinstalled Windows 7 from the recovery on DVD media and would like to know if it's something I did which puts in place the two discs or is it quite normal and intentional?

    When you use recovery DVD for the installation of the OS the procedure is always the same:
    -the whole HARD disc will be deleted
    -existing partition deleted
    -HARD disk will be formatted
    -two new partitions will be created
    -recovery copied image
    -Operating system installed

    This will happen again and again every time that you use the recovery DVDs.

  • Bug with high speaker on the Satellite C650-144 with Window 7

    For windows everythings works fine, so I don't know what I have to do...

    Hello

    Simply said; You can listen to the sound using headphones, but can not hear the sound on the speakers. Right?

    Have you noticed this early? Have you installed a few 3rd party applications may affect the functionality of speaker? Maybe some Windows updates can affect this?

    Please check the settings in the control panel-> sound-> the Read tab

    As a last resort, I recommend for recovering the device I want to say, it looks a bit because of speaker, but I strongly recommend to test the laptop with the factory settings.

  • Issue of recovery on the Satellite L650-12n

    I have the Satellite L650-12n. I bought recovery discs out of this Web site to install on my Crucial CT256MX100SSD1. Installation seems to work but then after you restart the computer, this message appears.

    "windows cannot complete the installation. to install windows on this computer restart installation. »
    and sometimes:
    "installation of windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

    I tried twice and it's the same thing.

    I looked in the BIOS and the SSD drive is recognized. I tried to reset to the default values, but nothing seems to work.

    No matter what help get beyond this problem before I bin batch would be much appreciated!

    You said you use the SSD drive.
    I guess it could be the reason why the recovery is not working properly.

    Formats and create new partitions on the HDD/SSD drive recovery.
    Sometimes, it would be possible that partitions can not be created properly because of different HDD / sizes SSD.

    It would be interesting to know if you can complete the installation by using the old HDD.

  • Recovery of the Satellite A200-TH1

    Because I met a frequent problem with my Satellite A200-TH1 of starting recently, I was told to use the disks of recovery by the seller. When I use it, after the two initial instructions (F12 / enter setup /F9), nothing happened. I chose the CD drive, and then press F9.

    Can someone help me to complete the process to get my computer recovered fully?

    Hello

    Your computer is trying to boot from CD or what exactly is going on?

    Have you tested different bootable disk to check if the recovery disk works properly? You can use a Microsoft Windows disk to test it. If this disc works, your recovery disc is scratched/damaged, otherwise, it might be a problem with your CD/DVD drive.

If I don't watch any divX movie to HARD drive beeps, but if I swith to any program or game I hear this annoying soung from time to time - a few times often (every 2-3 minutes) and one some time in the range of 10-15 min.
    never steady.

    This I hear however I cut his power.
    Is it possible that it's HDD, or do I have to pay attention to something else?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    Strange noise. I read somewhere on a similar problem and the user suggested that this noise is coming from the HARD drive.
    We hope not, but maybe you will get a HARD disk head crash in the future.
    I recommend doing a backup of your important files daily.

    You can also try to test the new HARD drive and verify that the strange noise appears.

  • How to install the recovery on the Satellite A200-1VO image?

    Hello

    I Satellite A200-1VO and want to give it its out of the box state, but it seems to have misplaced the recovery disk if it had one.

    Anone know how it reboot without it, or do I need?

    If you n t have original recovery disk, you can install the OS by using the original installation disc for Microsoft. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download from the Toshiba download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    Problem is that, with the original recovery image you n t need valid product key and pre-installed OS will activate automatically. If you use the Microsoft disk you need activation key.

  • Problem with Vista hit the Satellite X 200 - 20 s

    Sometimes during typing on vista, it will stutter and freeze. The time is very short. Is this a problem with vista or the laptop. The T7300 Core 2 Duo 2 ghz processor.

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro S200 and the same problem was with my camera. It s is not a hardware problem, it s more a driver related issue No. So, the best thing you can do is update your bios and keep your drivers up-to-date. Just check the download Drivers Toshiba site and make sure you have the latest drivers installed.

    I had resolved my stuttering (core2duo 2.33 Ghz, 2 GB RAM) by updating all drivers...

    That's all

  • Problem with keyboard on the Satellite Pro C660

    Hi all

    I am completely confused because my keyboard has gone haywire and am pretty annoyed, that I can't fix it

    Am running windows 7 on toshiba satellite laptop computer pro and I was wondering if this is a software or hardware problem.

    Here's what happens:

    -Caps lock light stays no more but it flashes when I press it. It always works well
    -Left SHIFT key still works, but when I press on it... it is also creates this symbol ~ at the same time within UK keyboard. If I change U.S. keyboard then it enters the vertical BAR.
    -The ~ key above the tab key doesn't do what ¬
    - And that the key to the pipe that is above the input Tape button this: #7

    I updated the BIOS earlier today, but nothing helps...

    Does anyone have an idea on how I can fix this as its quite frustrating! Thanks for all the ideas.

    see you soon

    > Am running windows 7 on toshiba satellite laptop computer pro and I was wondering if this is a software or maybe hardware problem.

    Keyboard is controlled by a Microsoft driver that is part of the Window System.
    So the story is pretty simple either your internal keyboard has failed or the keyboard on the motherboard controller does not work.

    How do I know what part is affected?
    It is also quite simple, you connect an external USB keyboard.
    If you notice the same problems using the external keyboard, the problem is related to the keyboard controller. If you n notice any problems using the USB, the computer keyboard keyboard internal works poorly in this case has to be replaced.

  • Re: Several questions about the recovery of the Satellite L750 features

    I have several questions about the recovery of Satellite L750 features available to it. Any help and answers would be useful.

    (1) when I started the laptop first, he asked me to create a recovery CD incase I need to reinstall the operating system. But he also said that he built in the recovery partition, so therefore, I have to make a recovery cd or not?

    (2) will be the recovery CD is exactly the same as the recovery on the system partition?

    (3) is the partion of CD or recovery includes all the integrated software pre-installed with the laptop?

    (4) also in the device manage management it shows watch partion recovery but it is empty, is it true?

    (5) in the second partition (drive D) system, he has a record with what looks like the recovery of files and folders. Is it safe to move/remove it?

    Hello

    I'll try to provide answers:
    1 - to ensure that everything works perfectly you don t need these discs, but if something goes wrong with the HARD drive you will not be able to do anything. When you have the recovery DVDs, you will still be able to install the recovery image and once again the factory settings. So my advice to you is: create these discs as soon as possible. Use only on DVD-R media and buy products of high quality (TDK or Verbatim).
    2 - Yes.
    3 - Yes.
    4 - No. Don t be confused with this.
    5. in a first time create restore DVD, and later you can do what you want. I put t know which files mean you but don t touch anything before that of the recovery disks to be created.

    In the past, many people have been experimenting with the structure of HARD drive and partitions and later was surprised when installing disk recovery HARD has been damaged. Don t make the same mistake.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • Problem of closing on the Satellite A100-906

    Hello.
    I use a Satellite A100-906. The problem is the thing began to close when starting hot (and NOT too hot, too, paying all in 35 minutes of play or so!)
    Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance

    SARP

    According to the description of your problem in short, there must be an overheating problem. For me, the first step is to make the laptop clean. It may be that the cooling fans are full of dust and dirt blocking the air flow. The result is material high temperature.

    Or, you can try to do it alone by using vacuum or pay for professional cleaning.
