Qosmio F20 - how to format only C: partition using the recovery disk

Hello

My laptop is Qosmio F20

After installing my OS using the recovery CD, I created more partitions... now, I have 5 partitions.
Now I want to reinstall my OS on the C: where there already exist right now but I would like to format the C: partition until I use the "expert installation"...
How can I do?

Also, if I used the 'expert' facility that gives me the option to choose which partition I like to use. He reformatted the partition before installing or it is it will be overwritten?

Thank you some much in advance.

As far as I know the partition will be formatted quickly at first and then the recovery image is installed.

  • Re: How to get Corel WinDVD without using the recovery disk?

    The update for Corel WinDVD was rather messy and because of this some owners laptop uninstalled to try to install the new software. Now, we ended up with the only possibility of an image recovery, which, in practice, means losing the software.

    Updates for the Bluetooth and wifi are also pretty messy.
    Is isn´t possible to get this software back without using the recovery disk?

    As you probably know recovery image installed on Toshiba laptops is a kind of software that includes the operating system, drivers, tools specific to Toshiba and utilities but also some additional software like antivirus or DVD player application.

    All drivers and Toshiba tools and utilities are available on the Toshiba download page, and if you want to install the version of the OS, you can download each of them.
    This additional software is not available for download. It's a kind of gift on the owner of the laptop because as the new owner, your machine must be ready to employment with full protection and opportunities to use multimedia content.

    If you don't like it, you can remove the system and use your own applications.

    Summary: this software cannot be downloaded separately and if you want to have it again, you must install original image of recovery designed for your machine.

    Hello world

    Any suggestions?

  • How to recover files before using the recovery disk?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Equium and when I turn it on it loads the screen where you log does not appear, it has a black screen with a mouse, and I need to use the recovery disk to get back to normal, but I don't want to format the hard drive that I have a lot of files so it is anyway to recover the files?

    Hello

    In my opinion the easiest way is you remove the laptop HARD drive and put it in a box external HARD disk. Then, you can connect this external HARD disk to a different computer now and have access to the files on your HARD drive and you can perform a backup.

    An alternative you can boot from a Linux Live CD and back up your files on a different USB devices.

    Thank you for your help... :)

    With recovery disk, you can install recovery image and game for laptop to factory settings. Please note: when you do this backup data will be deleted so before that, you back up all your important data.

    When you want to use the recovery disk to do on this way:
    Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu
    When the start menu is shown on the screen, place the recovery in the optical disc drive disk
    Choose the CD/DVD in the menu and press the ENTER key
    Just follow the menu on the screen.

    Do it, test it. Check alone, how it works.

  • Qosmio G10-133 - Install Qosmio Player and using the recovery disk

    Hi again.

    My g10-133 was the mother of uypgraded installed by Toshiba that there are back and forward in his first year with problems of graphics chip, so they installed the motherboard with the 6200 chip chart.

    Until very recently, I installed Windows XP to one of my dead computers that I've ever had anywhere with my original recovery qosmio disc such that it has been damaged. I recently bought an other G10 as I wanted to replace the keyboard and display and it came with disks,

    I put in a raw player. I used the recovery of the Qosmio player disc, and this indicates that it is complete. I then installed the Toshiba Recovery disk that has Windows MCE on it. (I have now three original copies of the present). But when windows go to start, the computer gets past the Bios and then quickly goes to the blue screen of death... I tried to use break so that I can read this, but it does not work. I tried more than a windows disk, but not joy. I also had special instructions for Toshiba, which has the Qosmio updater on him, and also another drive which has some additional drivers.

    So far, I've tried all sorts and whenever I go to start the laptop, it crashes. The Toshiba recovery disc has two methods that an automatic and a step forward on (which I don't have a clue how to use). The automatic, which does not implement the normal windows installation, but evokes a Toshiba says... and it goes from 0% to 100% and ends each time.

    If I use my Windows XP disk from another pc it install fine. and the laptop is fine until it reaches download Windows SP3, which seems to slow everything down.

    I would like to install the Qosmio to style factory if pos.

    What you need to help your service provider which has replaced the motherboard. A long time ago I heard talking of this and what I know is that the machine must be ready for use: This means service must update the BIOS, verify compatibility of memory, RAID functions are not the same, Bios, EC/KBC and DMI must be updated and rewritten. The laptop owner must be willing to work with new hardware components.

    If I m remembering well this new mainboard has different chipset and recovery image that you are trying to install has really bad drivers inside. With other words: after the Exchange system motherboard drivers and the Qosmio Player require an update.

    You know the whole process is a bit complicated, but, as far as I know, Toshiba service provider must send you instructions for Qosmioplayer update and instructions for the update tool.

    At the moment I can't help you. Please call again and ask for help. If you will not get any help it let us know.

This means that the Windows operating system that is pre-installed with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba. It of easy to use (just boot from the disc), simply follow the instructions on the screen.

  • How to use the recovery disks that I created?

    Original discs of title: recovery

    The computer store fixed my virus but when I come back most of my programs computer had disappeared. I did (as recommended) recovery disks when I came to the computer. How can I re - install what is on the recovery discs?

    Hi B.Frizzen,
     
    You can use the recovery disc for re - install or repair the operating system. It will not contain the programs you use on the computer.
     
    If you have a backup of the programs you use, then you can restore the same thing now, unfortunately you may need to download and reinstall the applications again.
  • Satellite M300 - how do I back up the data before using the recovery disk

    Hello everyone,

    Today, I closed my laptop Toshiba Satellite M300.
    Just after a few seconds, it automatically in service and reported some "boot error".

    She also suggested I put on the recovery CD. When I put the CD, nothing happened.
    After awhile, I read the instructions in the CD cover that says that I have to hold the C button and it will start the recovery process.

    How the process goes, the system told me that all the files that I had in the computer would be removed.
    Is it possible how I could back up my documents before as I recover my Vista?

    I would be very grateful if someone could help me!

    Sincerely,

    Milan

    Hello

    If I understand correctly, you are not able to boot into the Windows operating system; According to the normal starting procedure or by using safe mode. Is this good?

    If Yes, then I don't see many options to get access to the files on the HARD drive.
    What you could try is to remove the HARD drive and use an external USB 2.5 enclosure to connect the HARD drive on another computer.
    Then you could test whether it is possible to access the HARD disk and save the data.

    The Toshiba Recovery disk does not any option that allows you to save the data, the drive formats the HARD drive and erases all partitions.

    The system is Window 7 64, SP1 model HPE-450 t

    Thank you

    Hello

    Your first message stated that Intel IRST shows the drive as 3 TB. Thus, simply remove all partitions and format the drive as GPT.  Open the windows to RUN it as an administrator and enter the following commands:

    DiskPart

    list disk

    Select disk x---> x equals 3 to target hard drive

    clean

    output

    Now go into disk management and initialize and format the hard drive as GPT and assign a drive letter.

  • How to use the recovery disk

    original title: firefox doesn't work all the time and other programs and how do you RIF until recovery D

    Thanks hope someone can help

    Recovery of Partitions and recovery disks are created by the manufacturer - they are not Microsoft.  We have no information about their configuration or their operation or anything.  Each manufacturer is different (and sometimes even each make or model).  There may be a keyboard command that you run during startup to speed up the process, but I have no idea what this command can be.  You must contact the manufacturer for instructions and assistance.

    If you explain the problem more in detail, we may be able to help you fix the system without such a drastic measure; However, if you choose a clean installation is the right solution (don't forget to backup your data that this process will wipe the drive first), then it should solve all problems you encounter, unless they are hardware problems (but you know that soon enough if it does not work).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How to restart the Satellite 5200 801 without using the recovery disk?

    Hello

    I have the product recovery disc, but which will erase all existing data and rebuild. Is there a way to boot my PC without the use of the recovery disk?

    Thanks for any help.

    > PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

    This message means that laptop tried to boot from LAN.
    Given that this was not possible the PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable appeared

    I guess that the HARD drive is defect and therefore, the laptop won't boot from the internal HARD drive.
    In this case also your internal data on the HARD disk are lost.

    But to be100% sure that you can remove the laptop HARD drive, could use a drive enclosure HARD 2.5 to connect the HARD drive to another computer just to check if you would be able to access data on the HARD drive
