Qosmio G20 - how to reinstall Windows XP without the recovery DVDs?

I am trying to install windows XP on the laptop. I bought the Qosmio without the reinstallation cd. It has no operating system installed on the hard drive at all. Everything is OK, until he asks for raid drivers, then he said: put the disc in the drive "a". There is no player on the G20.
I need to buy a USB floppy to do this, or someone has solutions. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello

As you know already some units Qosmio supports RAID function.
If you want to install the OS from Windows, you must first install the RAID driver.
The RAID driver you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver.

You have three options:

1. you will first install the driver disk RAID, and then you could install the operating system from the original CD of Microsoft Windows.

2. you create a Windows clean boot CD with application called nLite (as mentioned above)
This application allows you to create the CD of the Windows operating system with additional drivers as RAID

3. buy the original recovery CD Toshiba with the Toshiba service partner in your country

    If your goal is to reinstall the operating system there are ways to achieve

    We need to tap the F11 key immediately after presswing the laptop power button. Who will call the Recovery Manager unless you have deleted the recovery partition or have done something to the original disk partition scheme. In the Recovery Manager simply choose to recover your PC for the original operating system

    Alternatively, you can order a set of HP recovery disks.

    The supplied restore CD does not contain the repair console because it s not an original Windows CD. The restore CD contains only an image of the files. Don't mix it with the CD of Microsoft!

    To get into the repair console, you will need the original CD of Microsoft Windows.
    I also read on the Microsoft site that it of possible to download the repair on 6 discs FDD console. Then you could boot from this drive FDD and you might be able to get into the repair console. But I have never tested this procedure.

  • How can I reinstall Windows 7 without the CD?

    My laptop came preloaded with Windows 7 and there is no CD or something with it.  I'm having some problems and you may have to reformat my hard drive.  How will I be able to put Windows 7 on without the CD?

    Most manufacturer who deliver without CD include a "recovery partition" or "factory image partition" which you can access during the boot.  Dell provided a CD and also came the recovery partition, for example, called Dell Factory Image Restore.  You would have to check in your manual to find out how to access the installation if you have a.

    But zero means just that - the pc is the same as it was when you opened the box, so you should have a lot of work to get all your applications and so on.  It's all a bit drastic.  I hope that you are able to resolve your problems without it.

    Well, I recommend to create a second partition on the HARD drive. There you can reinstall you new version of Windows XP.
    If you want to use the Toshiba Recovery CD, you must use the Expert mode to recover the operating system, because there you can choose the partition.

    Hi jesse,.

    What is the brand and model of your computer? You have the restore disc that came with the computer. If the recovery partition is still intact, you may be able to reset it to factory settings, but I can't tell you how much, until you post the manufacturer and model of your computer.

  • How can I reinstall Windows Vista without the disc?

    Staples load Vista on my computer but never gave me the disc, I need to format my drive, but I have to for on activation code reinstall. What should do?

    You probably have a restore disk partition that can be used to reinstall Windows. See your documentation or check with Staples to learn more.

    Note that formatting the drive and reinstalling WIndows are a very bad approach to address any problem. What makes you think you need to do this?

    And please note that a subject line that says: "What to do?" we said nothing and is likely to get your question ignored by many people. The subject must always be a brief description of what the problem is - in your case, something like "Want to reinstall but have no disc."
