• Tecra 8000: Question on the HARD disk and the password

  Hi all
  A market recently my son bought an old laptop Toshiba T8000.

  Personally, I have absolutely no knowledge of the laptop myself as a desktop is everything I've ever used.
  However, I recharged the battery and the power, it asks for a password, even if what I believe to be the HD is missing (Vacant housing, left under the keyboard and behind the battery)

  Our local store offers him an incredible £121 a new HD

  HA wasted his pocket money on it or can he get a password and the HD at reasonable price to fit?

  Any help is greatly welcomed.

  BREZ.

  Hello

  Especially the password appears at the beginning of the startup procedure because the BIOS password has been set.
  Unfortunately, you cannot delete or remove the BIOS password if the old password of BIOS is not known to you. Either contact you the person who sells you the device and ask for the password or you will contact the service partner in your country for a deletion.

  I guess that's a Tecra 8000 with the number PAT80XE.
  This unit is a little older and so I think that hard drives are rare, a little so more expensive.
  By the way: the device supports an EIDE HARD disk interface

• Question about the feature WLAN in Satellite M40x-119

  Hi all

  I have a problem with the network without wire/feature (?) in my laptop. Probably, I have drivers wrong with that, and I don't know what kind wireless device I. I lost my reboot CD :(
  How can I check what is there?

  BTW: when I try to connect wirelessly with information: 'turn on the wireless network device' with my knowledge, everything is on, but no doubt I'm wrong :(
  Any help? If you need more information please ask me.

  Thank you very much

  Make sure the switch without physical wire at the front (or side) is enabled.

  Check that the wireless adapter is enabled in the Device Manager

  Go to the section of the Toshiba Driver/Support Web site and select your model in the list, then download and install the latest driver for wireless LAN.

• Satellite Pro L550 - 17U PSLW9E - question of the HARD Win 7 64 bit disk recovery

  Hello

  Basically, when I got the laptop it had Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit installed.
  I created the backup disks, as asked it the first got scratched and gets stuck on the installation, I can install the 32-bit version (the CD it came with) and I tried to create a new 32-bit system recovery disk but it creates just a 32 bit recovery disc (which I already had the appropriate drive).

  Just to see if there is a way to restore the 64-bit system without having to buy a new version of windows?

  Satellite Pro L550-17U
  Part number: PSLW9E-01500MEN
  Windows® 7 Home Premium 64-bit authentic (pre-installed, Toshiba-HDD recovery) and
  Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 32-bit (Toshiba-Recovery DVD)

  Hello

  You reinstalled the operating system using the Toshiba Recovery disk which contained the Win 7 32-bit operating system. The recovery of 32 bit Win7 has formatted the whole HARD disk and has deleted all partitions (recovery partition HARD drive containing too many Win 7 64 bit OS)! and replaced with Win 7 32 bit.
  This means that Win 7 64 bit is no longer available on the HARD disk.

  In my opinion, there is nothing to do you will need to order new Win 7 64 bit recovery disc.

  Hello world

  I just joined the forum and already I need help.

  I have 2 questions (10) I'm an ODP, and I volunteer for a local blind group who all have laptops and rewrite the textbooks in braille users. Now a desire to know how start recovery from the HARD disk drive and what you should do disks for this.

  and (2) another received a laptop computer Toshiba A 100 and it does not start as soon as the Toshiba screen appears it lacks a password, we tried all kinds of passwords, tails of start and a new record of program but it does not start. Can anyone help please.

  For instructions how to recover a Toshiba laptop with verification of HARD drive recovery procedure please this document > http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

  The Satellite A100, I presume that you need BIOS password. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about it. Accredited maintainer Toshiba can remove the password for you.

• How can I access the hard disk in a satellite A30?

• Question on the available disk space on the Satellite Z930

  I'm new on this Yes, you can not shoot me down if this is a stupid question. I just bought a new ultrabook Z930. Storage space announced was 125 GB (drive C is only show 100 GB available). Only, I installed MS Office Standard 2007, Norton anti virus and printer drivers.

  However, I now only 65GB of disk space, and I do not think that these applications take 35 GB. I removed the shadow at all.
  Can someone give me some advice please?

  Unfortunately we can not see info exact drive HARD, but maybe you saw something wrong.
  Check please Disk management in the computer management options and you can see all the information base on the HARD disk and each partition of HARD drive.

  I can imagine that this 35 GB is total data backed up on some partition that contains the operating system and all the stuff pre-installed.

• Cannot change the HARD disk parameters in the Bios on Satellite A200

  I can't change the hard disk parameters in the bios for my satellite A200-1The
  This bios does not support changing the parameters of the hard disk for example SATA to IDE?
  BIOS version is: 5.6

  AFAIK in BOS advanced settings you can change mode SATA controller only. You can use the AHCI mode or compatibility.

  I put t understand why do you think you can use IDE mode. What you want to do exactly?

• Why the HARD disk is partitioned into C & D on Satellite Pro C partition

  Why the HARD drive is divided and how to use it?

  It is important that the one that I use?
  It turns into one big disk?

  The manual says nothing about this.

  Thanks for any help

  Ken

  Hello

  The HARD disk is partitioned and contains two partitions. The C partition is the system partition that contains the Windows operating system. The second D partition contains data drive HARD recovery.
  HARD drive recovery allows you to establish the notebook back to factory settings without the recovery disk usage.

  But it s is strongly recommended to create the recovery disk! The user manual provides the info on that in case something goes wrong with the HARD drive, the recovery disk allows you to recover the laptop.

  Of course, you can delete the D partition if you want to, but before doing so, you must create the recovery disk.

  However, my HARD drive contains 3 partitions. I created an extra. In my case, the C partition contains only system and the unique software. My files private like Mp3, movies, etc. are placed on the D second partition).
  The third partition (E) contains a folder with games.

• Satellite P300 - 190 PSPC2C - water spill and the HARD disk does not appear on the Setup

  Hello

  Spilled water on the keyboard. Laptop has stopped working.
  Dried, but did not recognize the HDD start up and HDD does not Set - up.
  Moved the HARD drive to another location of the HARD drive on the laptop and it appears at startup and boot OK.
  Is there an easy way to find and repair the defective HARD drive slot?

  Thanks for any help.

  PK

  Hello

  The HARD drive slot is not repairable. It s a HARD disk controller and I guess the HARD disk controller is dead.
  The HARD disk controller is part of the motherboard and if you want to repair it, so the entire motherboard must be replaced.

  New motherboard would cost a small fortune he of not good about market 350Euros
  That's why I put t think it is s to replace the mobo only to get the HARD drive in the first location of work

  This is my personal opinion...

• Re: Satellite Pro A40 - can I change the HARD disk or the same model?

  Hi Forum,

  do I have to wait for safe trouble by changing the hard disk between the following laptops:

  old or damaged laptop:
  SPA40 model PSA45E - 0013T - number GR
  Series No. 34127882 H

  new/own laptop
  SPA40 PSA45E-001VM-GR model number
  Series N0.34117607H

  Thanks in advance for your advice

  Concerning

  You can do it. No problem at all. Hard drives are not specific model of laptop parts and with hard drives is important compatibility.
  On the new laptop, which you can use different hard drives. Important is that use you compatible HARD drive.

  Just do it. After Exchange of HARD drive install Os again and everything will be OK.

• Cannot access the HARD disk drive HARD - Satellite P300 recovery

  Hi all

  I want to perform a Toshiba product recovery, using the partition on the HARD disk. I did it before and no problem.

  But when I press F8--> computer repair--> selection language--> then I have to select a user (Administrator / my name/guest) when I select the administrator, it says that my account has been disabled, when I select the user with my name (Kenneth) he continues to the menu where I can choose the different options for recovery. If I select the product Toshiba blah blah thingy a screen comes up saying it can't find 01 HARD drive. I did nothing with the partition containing Vista.

  My guess is that I need to log in as an administrator, which is impossible. My user account in Vista is a Director,

  Can someone please?

  I use a P300

  Best regards
  Kenneth

  You have made changes on the second partition where is placed folder HDDRecovery?

• Equium P200D - Question about running out of space on the HARD disk

  First of all, let me say that I am a Silver Surfer and don't know much about how works laptop or where it stores information!
  I don't am not in the least HI - TEC so please be gentle with me.

  I use an older Equium P200d for 1 year with two 40 GB hard drives each.
  My C drive has only 2 GB of memory left available while my E drive still has 30 GB.

  I have only 3.7 GB of programs loaded (according to the research of control panel) and I know that I have 4 GB of music.

  My query is - where is the other 30 GB missing?

  I made the Scandisc option and deleted all the stuff from there and a defragmentation procedure.

  Y at - it searches I can run to find junk I have more need?

  Any advice you can offer would be appreciated.

  Hey Buddy

  If you are using Vista, then you should consider that Vista creates an additional partition on the HARD drive.
  It s hidden and it contains backup files in order to repair the operating system if something goes wrong.

  In addition HARD drive must also contain HARD drive recovery files (image).
  These files are required to recover the laptop HARD drive.

  So the hidden partition and the recovery of HARD drive that could be the main reason why you noticed smaller amount of space available on the HARD disk

  See you soon

• Questions about the record HDD Recovery - Satellite L350D

  Hello everyone!

  I have a Satellite L350D with Windows Vista.
  I'm in my mind to reinstall.
  All my data from the two partitions are saved with the exception of a folder on my drive E Data "HDDRecovery" who shouldn't be modyfied or deleted, or whatever.

  I wonder if all the data are removed from the hard disk due to formatting, how does appear that this same folder HDDRecovery remains safe on the hard drive?
  Or is that the hard drive is not really formatted and data on my hard drive are always safe and hidden?

  Thank you for answers!

  Hello

  I'll try to explain how it works.

  Original Toshiba designed for your laptop recovery image is recorded on the second partition in the file called HDDRecovery. This image should be used if you want to install OS and have the original state factory.

  For this installation, you can use this recovery image of the second partition or by using the recovery DVD. It is recommended to everyone to create this recovery DVDs. Have you created?

  If you use recovery DVD the whole HARD disk will be formatted and all data stored thereon will be removed.
  If you start the HARD drive recovery process only C partition is removed. This folder HDDRecovery is important if you only want to use HARD drive recovery facility. When you want to use the DVD only you can remove (I do not recommend you to do).

  I hope I could help a little, but if you have any other questions please let us know.
