Question about product recovery CD

Hello

I have 2 partitions of hard drive (C and E), and I want to recover my system using the product recovery CD.
If I do this, will be deleted all the files in the partition E?
Thank you

Hello Omar

As I can see from your previous assignments you still didn t understand how it works. You have the new Satellite A200. the procedure of recovery for new laptops is not the same as the older models.

Old models of laptops has been bundled with ghost image and it was possible to use Expert mode and install the operating system on the C partition only. In this case, all data on other partitions was there.

With the new models of laptops Toshiba use the new recovery system (RICO). Unfortunately there is no option Expert mode and if you use recovery media to install the OS, the whole HARD disk will be deleted and you will lose all your data. The only thing is that you can do is to use the CONFIGURATION option and create two partitions. All that s.

In this topic describes Pedro very nice what you can do. Buy Norton Ghost for Vista and make your own recovery DVD that you can use at any time and only install the OS on the C partition.

Sorry but there is no other way to install OS and save the data on the partition of second or third.

    Hello

    First of all sorry for my English...
    I have a Toshiba laptop and I decided to make a recovery-format product.

  • 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.

  • Question about the recovery partition

    Hello.

    I have a question about the recovery of HARD drive partition.

    If I do the operation to clear the hard disk option in the wizard it will remove * all * or it will keep my partition recovery in this way I can come back later. I want to know because I would like to put on a different OS.

    I know he said he would, but caution in the PDF, I found it says that on a normal recovery too (that he would remove each partition) and I'm a little confused about how the recovery actually worked.

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    To be honest I n don't know what you mean exactly with this option to erase.

    In General, Toshiba Recovery disk will wipe your entire HDD to restore factory settings correctly. This means that if you start from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen, everything will be removed.

    In addition, the recovery disk doesn t create a recovery partition. It is not available. Disk copy just the files on the second partition in folder HDDrecovery to start an installation of HARD drive recovery.

    Restore CD contains recovery image. Recovery image include the operating system, drivers, utilities and software tools extra.

    When you install recovery image you own preinstalled WXP. For cell old models were most two disks: 1/2 and 2/2 so if you the second you will not be able to install the OS completely.

    Drop Hello

    I can see user Justinian gave detailed answers, and I hope you understand how it all works now. Of my overwiev aside:

    What exactly is recovery image?
    + Recovery image is an exact copy of a hard drive and contains the exact copy, byte by byte, a hard disk partition. The copy includes all the partition information, sectors priming, the table of allocation of files, installation of operating system and software application different. +
    + You are using installation Recovery CD/DVD/USB, you can restore your system after heavy data loss, caused by an accident of operating system, hardware failure or complete virus attack. +
    + Recovery image installation procedure allows the installation of system and easy to user. Unfortunately, it is not possible to restore only certain files from a disk image. +
    + Each recovery image is designed for a specific model laptop and it cannot be used for any other series of notebook. +

    With other words, recovery image is a software package that contains Windows operating system, all the drivers needed for some portable model, Toshiba tools, utilities, and also some other software. A lot of people don't like these additional software, but no you don't have to use it. all things you don't like you can remove it from the system.

    Activation of recovery image:
    When you buy the phone model you also purchase the license for the preinstalled OS version that you get with your machine. After start and contact to the internet OS will be checked and activation will be valid.

    Please note: you can reinstall original image recovery 100 times if necessary. There is not a kind of limitation, and whenever it will be activated.

    Take care of your recovery media (DVD/USB). Do not lose it.

    Of course, it can happen that you do not find your recovery media. In this case you can order.

  • Satellite A20-S103D: two questions about the recovery process

    Hello

    I bought the machine above my nephew - is no longer necessary.
    It runs Windows XP Home Edition and is not a Windows CD or disc of recovery of any kind.

    I have a Windows decal on the underside with the product key, but when I use "Belarc Advisor" to examine the product keys for all my software loaded it gives a totally different operating system product key! This key contains the letters OEM in there.

    As the machine is supplied with a Toshiba power management software I guess it's an OEM Toshiba of the OS version I have.

    My questions are:
    1 / this does not mean that at some point in the past, this machine was another product of Windows XP on it? (two product keys)
    2 / I can, (and), I get the Windows XP CD or a recovery for the machine, like I need to recover or to reload Windows.

    Thanks in advance to all members of the forum that meet.

    > 1 / this does not mean that at some point in the past, this machine was another product of Windows XP on it? (two product keys)

    The key you found at the bottom of the device belongs to the OEM of Windows version that is part of the recovery diskette.
    The recovery disk is already enabled so that the key is not required in order to activate the Windows operating system.
    As far as I know, that the key does not work with other versions of windows

    > 2 / I can, (and), I get the Windows XP CD or a recovery for the machine, like I need to recover or to reload Windows.
    Since it is an old, I doubt you'd be able to order the recovery for this device disc
    If you want to install the Win operating system, then you must use a Windows CD clean valid keys and all drivers may be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba.
    The drivers are placed in the archive because it oldie s in order to choose the archives in the type of product to download the form.

  • Questions about Acer Recovery (long story, simple question)

    Hey there,

    I recently came across a pretty annoying problem with my Acer Aspire 7560 notebook computer G. First of all, I hope this is the right section to ask the question on this model in particular, if this not is not please forgive me. In addition, for TL; DR scroll all the way down.

    The issue I had was that programs would fail / refuse to start. Zune opening, steam or even just try to open a picture in Windows Photo Viewer either did nothing at all, or the program would look like it began only to then disappear completely (sometimes, but not often, accompanied by an error message saying that the program has stopped working). The laptop still start well, I can browse my directories, internet access, run certain programs, but not others (kkkkk emulator Android works very well, for example). I decided that the best thing for me to do was reset to the factory. Boy I was wrong.

    I backed up all my personal files on an external hard drive, so the laptop is ready to be reset. First problem I encountered was that do anything during startup caused me a BIOS password. I did not create one, so it must be the default, and it wasn't really all that difficult to get rid (I used a bootable USB key with clnpwd, just follow the instructions). Then I entered the BIOS, but whenever I get alt + f10 to work and load the Recovery Manager, invites a message indicating that I have to wait for the operating system to load. After that start the laptop, and nothing changes.

    I discovered that I probably haven't installed Acer eRecovery utility, because I had to replace a HARD drive defective just now. If at this point, I tried to not get these files to http://us-store.acer.com/erecovery/rcd/ no chance. When you enter SNID or show, it always returns "we have found the serial number entered. Uppercase or lowercase do not make a difference. I'm sure that number I entered is correct, however, because when I use it to search in http://www.acer.com/ac/en/GB/content/drivers it is my laptop model immediately. So, what gives? I'm not sure.

    If I can't get the support of Acer recovery soon, I might have to resort to completely reinstall my OS (Windows 7 Home Premium) for the device. Problem is that I don't have a disk for it. I thought to download an ISO and that copy on a bootable USB key, so I went Microsoft Web https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 site I found the product key with a simple .vbs file, but alas, because the OS came preinstalled, which won't help me. At this point, I'm getting impossible to reacquire the Acer recovery as well as Microsoft methods. If this doesn't help, I might have to resort to some Windows 7 disc torrent download, but I'm not too happy with this prospect for obvious reasons. I don't even know if I could activate my product code, and I don't trust those "cracks".

    THUS,.

    My question is: how to acquire Acer eRecovery media when they tell me "we have found the serial number entered. If that proved impossible, you know safely to reinstall my OS using my product key?

    Thanks in advance, I hope I can get this mess sorted out.

    Customer support was no help, in the end, they just referred me to a local retailer and gave me an estimate on the time and money it would take to get things resolved. Too long and too expensive, but that's just my opinion. I'll just go come and clean install my OS.

    Found this mirror which has the ISO files archived: http://mirror.corenoc.de/digitalrivercontent.net/ I'll check the SHA-1 checksum, just to be sure, but they must be perfectly clean. With Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/windows-usb-dvd-download-tool?wa=wsignin1.0), I can create a bootable USB key, and after that, it's going to be all simply a matter of following the instructions.

    A little muffed that I couldn't have this problem solved, but hey, I was counting on the factory reset anyway. I will get rid of all the bloatware and possible malware in a single shot in this way, then everything that works, right?

    I downloaded everything from http://www.acer.com/ac/en/GB/content/drivers to my device (because, my SNID worked) for additional safety. ISO file is almost finished downloading, I'll probably do a last post here when all is set and done. That way, if anyone ever find this thread, they know that what might work.

    Thanks for your efforts, but alas, they were of no use.

Now, one of our elders informed that because the database is in nocatalog mode we can restore controlfile sauvegardΘ thank you and go normal restore and recovery... Can it be done at all? My eldest has suggested that if we restore the old controlfile that there no trace resetlogs restore directly and up to the last CNS recovery is possible... Our knowledge is that after the previous activity and archivelogs resetlogs backups get unusable... Please help here to undestand that my eldest son is right or we are right and if so why?

    Hello

    I'll try to provide answers.
    > I wanted to record video data on D: and was surprised to find some hdd files and folders reverie about it.
    The same situation is on all laptops come with HARD drive recovery image. Recovery image is saved in the folder called HDDRecovery. It is recommended to create recovery DVDs using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. When the recovery DVD is created, you can delete these files and use of recovery DVDs for the operating system installation.
    Otherwise the partitions are large enough, and you should leave this file here. Just define it as hidden and you won't.
    > Again, I have a small partition hidden and thought that hard drive recovery waas on that.
    This small partition has nothing to do with the Toshiba recovery image. Recovery image Toshiba is large enough and cannot be saved on small partition.
    > When restart us computer after pressing F8, is associated with the files to D: or hidden partition recovery option.
    They are related to the folder HDDRecovery and recovery stored image. When you delete drive recovery option HARD is no longer available.

  • Question about Vista Recovery CD Toshiba

    I don't know why laptops Toshibas are sold with this kind of installation disc.
    If something happens and the system needs to be reinstalled then whole hard disk will be deleted. And also what it installs this Norton Internet Security? Not everyone likes it.
    It would be much better to sell just the cd with system and cd with drivers separately.

    P.S. y at - it a repair utility for this backup cd which will not remove HD set. Where is boot loader Editor?
    I have spent many hours trying to run XP and Vista on dual boot before I succeed.

    [Edited by: admin on June 17, 2007 08:08]

    Hello

    Why you're so angry shouting at them? I Don t understand it. You know, there are 100,000 customers and machines and noone of them had a problem with this recovery system.

    To these people like you, who are dissatisfied with their handling and their marketing, they release the drivers on their site so you can get a separate operating system
    AS YOU WOULD LIKE and then you can install it as you need.
    Regarding Norton: If you don t like it, uninstall it and the problem is solved. And how do you know, people like him or not. Maybe not everyone's a computerfreak like you,
    There are some people that they don t know not even how to install an operating system, and they are happy to have something delivered to their BONES "factory-installed" who cares about the security of the system.

    If you are more familiar with computers, just install the system and make individual for you. I think that toshiba has nothing to do with, when you don t get the thing LIKE YOU HAVE is in your view.

    So I Don t want to offend you, I want to show you, this toshiba must produce for the masses, and they give the geeks like us a limited chance to create an individual system on our machine.
