Question about recovery for Satellite Pro A120-185

I had a with the laptop recovery CD. I wonder if he has the operating system also (windows Vista) and I have the right to request a copy of the operating system?
Is - this CD has everything that was originally on the laptop (all software)?
And how to restore to factory State with the combination of keys on keyboard to image on the hard drive? This also restores programs and everything too?

Hello

You bought the laptop with pre-installed Vista OS?
If so, the recovery CD should contains the operating system Vista, all Toshiba drivers, tools and utilities and additional software.

> Is - this CD has everything that was originally on the laptop (all software)?
Yes, as I said above the Toshiba on the restore CD image contains everything; Operating system, drivers and programs.

If you use the recovery for the reinstallation CD, you will set the laptop to factory settings.
But beware, this procedure will format you whole HARD disk and will delete the existing partitions.

If you want to install from the recovery CD, try to boot from this CD and follow the guide line. It is very easy.

  • Question about BIOS for Satellite Pro A10 files

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 and later yesterday, he won't, he past the TOSHIBA start screen and then black with a flashing cursor, it didn't leave me in advanced settings or the settings of the BIOS, a friend told me I need to Flash BIOS, I came across the site and found only a BIOS update and management told me to use the floppy drive , he said when I unzip the file I get an .exe file which I opened and it will give me three files, one for the CD ROM, one for the floppy drive and the third I don't remember, but it didn't happen, when I unzipped the files in a temporary folder, but I never had the files.

    I think I had to have it on my own laptop, and then it would be extracted properly, because my laptop does not work I can't do and even if I put the files on a disk, they are too big.

    Then...

    Where can I get the files from the BIOS that I can put on a floppy disk and then I can boot from that disk and it will fix the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Hello

    OK, follow these steps:

    Burn the file bios to CD on a CD, boot from it and update your bios. It's a simple and easy way. I Don t understand why it shouldn´t work, given that I ve updated my bios in the same way. I burned the image to CD and booted from this CD.

    Please answer perhaps you just made a mistake when you think to (I sometimes do too much, not often, but it happens..)  :)

  • Satellite Pro A120-185 - need Vista Recovery disk - never get a

    Hello, my trusty Satellite Pro C: is completely filled, and so I would wipe and do complete a new installation of Windows.

    It came with VISTA on it when I bought it several years ago.

    It's a Satellite Pro A120-185 and the operating system only disk I got with it was just something to 'upgrade' disc of Vista.
    I bought and paid for Windows Vista with the laptop, thus so I wouldn't have a license can I reinstall?

    Please note that I am an advanced PC user, I'm not looking for ways to reduce the space that my household is good and I uninstalled everything I do not use or need.

    I just want to be able to clean the laptop and reinstall Windows Vista... is it going to be possible? (I don't see why it shouldn't be because Vista came with the laptop!). Please tell me where I can get the windows disk since?

    Hi dude

    Read the other discussions on this topic even here in the forum.

    You didn t get this disk because you create the recovery disk using the Toshiba recovery disc Creator called pre-installed tool.
    This was mentioned in the manual as well!

    However, here you can order the recovery disk that you didn't create yourself.

  • Performance on a Satellite Pro A120-185 with Windows Vista problems

    Can someone help me with this.
    My laptop is a new Satellite Pro A120-185 with Windows Vista.

    I had my last configuration less portable, but you know what? He was faster!

    I'm supposed to have cetrino duo 2, 2 GHz and cach of 4 MB, FSB 667 MHz, RAM 1 GB, even though they are at 533 MHz, 100 GB 5400 RPM HARD drive / MIN.

    It is slow, not only starting, programs opening, plays something, the browser and even to copy from the CD to the hard drive sometimes give me time 4 days left!

    Clicking on something takes forever. What's wrong?
    Need less to say that with vista no and I mean none, of my devices are busy. Dongle Bluetooth, USB disk, printer, NAS, and and...

    Hey dude,

    Please don t forget that Vista has been installed on your laptop and the additional tools of Toshiba and the utilities that control many additional features!
    There is a huge difference between Vista and early Microsoft operating systems.

    The Vista eat computer resources and many devices old don t work or cannot be installed because the 3rd device manufacturers don t provide Vista drivers!

    In my opinion an upgrade to 2 GB ram would increases the performance of laptop.
    All programs and utilities could be loaded more quickly

  • Need drivers for Satellite Pro A120

    Hello

    I got my sisters laptop (Satellite PRO A120 model PSAC1E) and because it was full of girly garbage I ve put the xp pro disc to and start again.
    Now, the problem is that there are a lot of exclamation points in my device manager. I guess the disc that came with the laptop would have sorted it, but it disappeared.
    Rather than going through downloads driver one at a time and hoping that I get what I want (some seem not to be there anyway), is there a place I can download the boot disk arrangement... the Device Manager indicates that these don t have drivers...

    Ethernet controller
    bus modem device high definition audio
    network controller
    USB controller
    unknown device
    video controller
    video controller (vga compatible)

    I'm on another pc at the moment and can download on a disc, and then put it in the laptop.
    Any help would be greatly received

    Thanks in advance
    ADE

    You can order a new disc of recovery at an authorized service provider if have lost the recovery disk that came with the noteboook.
    Just ask the registered maintainer the closest that you can find on the Toshiba site and talk with them. I think that people will try to help you. ;)

    Of course, you can install Windows XP on the laptop without recovery disk Toshiba, but it takes more time than the recovery disk. You need to download and install each driver and tool that you can find on the Toshiba site.

    In your case I print the suggested installation instructions Feliks document. Then you can walk through each driver or tool that you have already installed and you can t forget something.

    Good luck and if you have any other questions feel free! :)

  • Questions of OpenGL on Satellite Pro A120

    Hello

    I started to notice this when I installed the Google Sketchup application - which allows to use all the hardware graphics acceleration via OpenGL.
    When I have the OpenGL option on, it no longer displays the objects created successfully. When I turned it OFF, it of very well and works correctly.

    He was not a train smash.

    As curiosity got to me, I have installed some games, namely Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna that uses the built-in graphics card: Mobile Intel (r) Express Chipset 945GM. Obviously, something with the graphics driver just did not work properly. I can't find a new update of pilot beyond the one I have. I'm really not worried about the game, I'm more worried about not be able to run Google Sketchup with OpenGL! It makes a big difference with OpenGL support!

    I tried downloads graphics chipset from Intel, and he told me that I should talk to Toshiba... so here I am...

    I would really like to know what I can do at this point... because it affects my work.

    My system is
    Laptop: Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC1E)
    Mobile Intel (r) Express Chipset 945GM with the driver version: 7.14.10.1147 (current download from Toshiba)
    DirectX 10

    Thank you.

    Hello

    in your case, I'll try the drivers from the Intel site that could possibly solve your problem. There could also be a chance for a solution by visiting opengl

    -> http://www.opengl.org/

    and download the latest version of OpenGL. Perhaps it would be worth updating your DirectX because this could also be a reason for your problems of OpenGL...

  • Prerequisites for the replacement of Windows XP for Satellite Pro A120-107

    I don't know that it will have been asked before, however...

    I received a Satellite Pro A120-107 XP. Because XP is not supported, I would like to upgrade to Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. Who should I go for?

    I think I need to improve my memory (currently 512 MB) at least 1 GB. Or should I go to 2 GB. Which would be better?

    And I need a BIOS upgrade? He is currently using vn 1.50 08/24/2006. If I do, what version?

    In your case, I'll try to install Win 7 on this good old classic.

    8.1 Win is the latest system from Microsoft but I'm afraid, you will have some problems with drivers m.

    Win 7 would be the best choice in this case

  • Upgrade SSD for Satellite Pro A120

    Hello
    I have a satellite pro A120, which feels a little tired. I did research SSD upgrades to replace the HARD drive, but I don't know if I can update or not. I would really appreciate any advice or information you can give me.

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can upgrade the laptop with an SSD. You need a disc SSD SATA 2.5 as the A120 supports the SATA controller.
    Not quite sure about the SSD size but I guess a 250 GB should be recognized correctly.
