Re: Qosmio F20-110 - error when installing recovery

Hi guys.

Having a problem of formatting my laptop using the recovery of product DVD, the question is this: while the system recovery is underway, I have an error message that says simply.

"!!!!!!!! ERROR! Press a key to continue... "
As well as 3 beeps from my laptop.

When the key is pressed (;)), it evokes a newspaper any to be perfectly honest, that is to say nothing at all for me. Then what seems to be BACK with the option to type, once I left the newspaper. In this case at any specific time during the recovery process, its been around 25%, 60%, 40% not any specific percentage whenever I tried.
The disc is in almost perfect condition (having only been to Holster when I already restored my laptop). And there is no virus/malware/ect (to my knowledge) on this subject, before I tried the restore.

I have upgraded the RAM a few years back, but I have used the system to restore a couple of times since then without any problems. Also it comes up with the same error trying to restore from a disk image.

Any help/ideas as to what on Earth is actually past would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Kitsou.

Hello

Well, if you can install Windows recovery disk Toshiba t it seems to be a malfunction of the equipment. The Toshiba recovery disc is pretested by Toshiba that it works properly on your laptop. In addition, he will restore the original settings of the box with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba. So I think that the problem must be hardware related as Akuma written.

Theoretically, the HARD drive and RAM could be affected. These pieces, you can test with special diagnostics, looking just a little tools using Google and you'll find enough. I put t think that s a problem for you.

In the worst case the motherboard and CPU could also be affected, and they are expensive parts. If you have some experience with laptop disassemble you can check second hand places like eBay for spare parts.

    My brother ordered me this laptop online from Best Buy for my Christmas present in Dec.2010. After I opened and he started upward, I did then the system backup disc as it was told to do. I showed that I needed to 4 discs for back to the top after the fourth disc, he said that it was over. OK, so now I know that I've saved it in addition to the recovery partition also.

    So, last month, I wanted to do a restore of the system on this laptop. So I pulled out the 4 disks and put in the first and he did his thing and then asked for the 2nd and so on. Then after the fourth was done he said to put in the next disc, but I don't have a fifth backup drive. He had me only use 4 when I got it to save.

    And then abandoned on the problem of disk and restarted and I got to the recovery partition. So after that I started the process by clicking ok for all the warnings about everything will be deleated I arrived at the first installation process, then after five minutes, he went to the next process where it says "Copy files" and after 30 seconds or so, a box appears asking to insert the next disc.

    So I called Toshiba and talked about using technology, and they told me to unplug everything on the laptop and then turn it over and remove the battery for a minute. And then reconnect the power cord and then put the battery in and turn on the computer.
    So after she started upward he went to the BIG WARNING page on everything will be lost and deleated so I cliked next and next through the next coupld of no, then it poped an error message that says (error: F3-F200-0002).

    After repeating the process a few times the same thing continues to be. So when I talked to Jasmine on 11/06/2011 from technical support, she told me I can call Monday 13 and ask for the case manager and that she would approve that they send me a recovery disk free presence that is the disk does not copy at the moment where I followed it there Backup Wizard and he recovery partition is messed up. So I called the case manager today, and Doug told me that I have to pay to get the recovery disk.

    In my view, it's very bad customer service and I will never buy another thing from Toshiba again. And I will make all my colleagues and friends know that I went thru with this laptop...

    Hello

    I always was pleased the service in my country.
    However, I think you had some bad luck with the recovery procedure

    However, new recovery disc can be ordered here: http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  • Qosmio F20 - no sound after installing Win XP

    Hello everyone,

    I need some help here...
    I use Toshiba Qosmio F20 and have re-installed with Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2.
    All the drivers were all updated and all seems fine. But now there is no sound at all, even when I turn on or increase the volume.

    It has nothing to do with enabling / disabling, cause there is no effect.
    A few hours earlier, everything was fine. Is it because the qosmio must be installed with XP Media Center Edition?
    What should I do then, cause I don't have the recovery disc more?
    Where can I find solutions.

    Thank you

  • Qosmio F20-110: charging question

    Hello

    Im having a problem with my laptop Qosmio f20-110 battery problem.
    Basically, I can't turn on the laptop with the battery. I can only turn on the laptop with the AC adapter. When the battery is in the laptop and the power adapter is connected to the electric network, an orange light comes in indiacting that his charge.

    The led turns off after 4 hours (meaning that its full charge) and when I remove the AC adapter and try turning on the laptop using just the battery nothing happens. When the laptop is turned on with the battery inside, it starts as usual and you can use the laptop.

    In the toshiba power save the application, it says the battery is charging and when the State of charge goes up to a point (it's different values), for example sometimes to 46% of charge, charge status hangs at this point, it sometimes freezes at 67%, sometimes he says potential battery: s. o. If I now remove the power adapter the laptop turns off.

    When I start it again with the AC adapter, it indicates the State of the battery that is currently charged in function for example, 67%, 46% 0% or battery remaining remainnig N/A and the orange light comes on indicating that his indictment.
    It may be the battery, as I have tried 3 batteries toshiba real far with exactly the same problem!

    My bios is also up to date.
    I'm on a Toshiba ac adapter authentic as well!

    I hope someone can help

  • Qosmio F20 - 110 Cd writer problem.

    _Hello All_

    Bear with me please im new to these boards. I have a problem with my Qosmio F20-110. It works with Media Center 2005 Edition and Im having problems with the CD burner. Everytime I try to produce an audio cd it will burn the first two songs and then spit the disk. Ive tried to change the write speed and various manufacturers of disc. Ive tried a lot of different software, but nothing helped. I'd appreciate any advice on this question because Im starting to think it's a hardware fault. I activated the record cd in D drive properties and still no joy.

    Help please.

    > I'd love any advice on this issue because I'm starting to believe that it is a hardware failure of m.
    It's my first idea too
    Everything looks like a hardware problem.

    To be honest, something like this can happen. Sooner or later readers may work because of a handset, mechanical stress.
    In most cases, the laser lens is malfunctioning and cannot calibrate properly.

    I think that a replacement is necessary

  • Qosmio F20-155: error after the beginning of the control panel controls

    I installed Win 2000 on a Qosmio F20-155 computer and I get an error like this when I start the TOSHIBA controls control panel. Could someone help me please?

    "An error occurred while windows was working with the Control Panel file C:\Program Toshiba Toshiba Controls\ToshSrv.cpl.

    Hello

    I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and there is no drivers Toshiba for W2k on the Qosmio F20. Where did you get the drivers of control?
    You need a driver for Toshiba in particular to use the commands. But there is no driver for W2k. In this case, the controls cannot function properly.

  • Qosmio F20-136: how to install the software update for DVB TV device?

    Hi, I used the update all the drivers for my qosmio f20 136 11/07/06 and received various pilot updated on the list.
    The file called TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 at startup allows the pilot to TV TUNER directory listing and seems to be once I was the driver under System section and selected update driver and select this directory.

    My question is the another file called DVBTAHYB-QF20-XPMCE-1051340 when I click on the file that I just get a list of files, when I try the My TV driver update and choose this directory it won't find anything, does anyone know how to install that to update the file. The download list says they are two updates of tv pilot.

    Maybe Toshiba could include a text file explaining in detail how to install these files? Can anyone help please. And nobody knows which file to copy to save a permanent channel registration, so I could re install the file in the directory so lost the complete channel list?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Maybe I understood something wrong, but according to the prudence shown on the Toshiba download page, the TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 driver is designed for the range of models between F20-101 and F20 - 135.
    Are you sure that this disc is designed for your computer model laptop too?

    Have you tried to install the update of dvbtahyb-qf20-xpmce-1051340 when the original pilot of the TV (factory settings) is preinstalled?

  • Qosmio F20-110: ODD suddenly stopped reading/burniing

    I have problems with the drive. It burns/reads DVD but no cd, ive just completed a new installation of the DVD recovery still no joy.
    I had the laptop about 4 years and its in good nick! could someone tell me what the problem is.

    I asked what we call tech to pcworld guy only to be told that they don't know?

    Help woulkd very appreciated.

    Concerning

    I can't say with certainty, but the player is maybe defective. The position of the objective for playback of DVD and CD is not the same thing and maybe by car has problems to put the lens in the right position.

    To be honest, Qosmio F20 is old enough laptop model, and I would not be surprised if the drive is defective.

  • Re: Qosmio F20-137 - after I installed Windows 7 I have no sound

    I installed Windows 7 on my Qosmio F20 and all the drivers have been installed by windows update after I connected to the Internet.
    I can play music and videon to files in Windows Media player, but there is no sound in speakers or if I connect the headphones.
    If I look on the driver for the sound in devicemanager he says that everything is OK. Does anyone know what is the problem?

    I also reinstalled Windows 7 but still the same problem.

    Kind regards
    Henrik

    Hi sta1n,

    Maybe the sound is muted... Check using the FN + ESC key combination that can toggle the sound.

    Also, check the page of Toshiba. Qosmio F20 taken Windows 7 isn't supported so that you can try the Vista driver.
