Re: Satellite A300 - how to run recovery

Hello

My A300 became a bit slow to load and such. If I want to format the hard drive.
I made 2 DVD using Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. Now what.
Do I use both drives just to make or use the disks of product supplied with the system recovery media.
So it is all the drivers and others will be that they find on the disks that I created or I have to search for them and other programs such as my programs anti-virus and others.

Cheers for any help

I guess that you didn t read all topics here in the forum about the recovery procedure?
Right?
So I recommend to do this because this theme is one of the topics most asked here in the forum!

PS: You need to boot from the recovery disk and having to follow the instructions on the screen.
Recover disc will format the whole HARD drive and will set the laptop to the State as on the first day of purchase.

  • Satellite A300 - how to start HARD drive recovery after own OS insatallation

    Hi guys.

    I have a question.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300, which came with Windows Vista.
    Normally I have the recovery with the normally pre-installed utility partition.
    After that I formatted the system partition, I installed a clean and fresh Windows 7 copy.

    My question is this.
    Since the recovery partition does not get soiled with, is there not a way to install the disk recovery utility hard back in recovery of Windows of F8 before the boot options?

    Please don't tell me that I need to have the recovery disk.
    I already did, I just want to find a solution because it is not that hard for someone who accidentally formatted the system partition and had not created the disks, but the recovery partition. My guess is to do some modifications in the files of the Windows recovery environment that are launched when you use the option to repair my computer at startup, because normally, HARD drive recovery utility appears as one of its tools-options.

    The problem is that I don't have to where these files are, maybe (C:\boot?)
    Currently, I am trying to see if a facility upgrade of windows 7 on windows vista will keep options for hard drive recovery then maybe I will find what it takes.

    All suggestions are welcome!
    Thank you for your time.

    OK, just a hint more, I found what is happening with the recovery environment, and which must be replaced to include more tools...

  • Satellite A300 - how to recover the operating system without a recovery disk?

    First of all, sorry for my very bad English.

    I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300, PC 9 months ago. I had problems with a virus and result is that despite clean-up and disinfection, the computer is still infected and I refused access to the hard drives and regedit.

    I thought restoring the operating system factory preinstaled (hopefully, this is the solution and not the formatting) and Barrie told me to check out http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    I did it, but the PC it's imposible because there is no files. I don't have a rescue CD (if newbee).

    What can I do?

    Hello

    Usually the A300 (European series) has been equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would be you allows to recover the laptop using the files on the HARD drive. But if this is not possible while something went wrong with the maybe HDD it s due to the infection by the virus

    In any case if you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive you need the recovery disc.
    You can order it as suggested by resident on the other hand, you can use the MS Windows Vista disk and can download driver Toshiba page.

    I bought a toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 d

    FTM the tsscorp drive that is installed in the camera no longer works (does not detect any type of media what so ever). ) need to recover the laptop, so I used a USB DVD drive to boot from the restore disc, but after that the charges of recovery console it says waiting for media in the f: drive, which is the tsscorp drive although I used an external drive to load the disc.

    Unfortunately I think that it of not possible to use the recovery with external CD/DVD drive disc. Therefore, place the internal for use the recovery disc.
    You can get a new drive to an authorized service provider.

    But if the original OS from Toshiba is installed, you can use the function of disk recovery HARD reinstall Windows as well. Go to the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer :)

  • Satellite A300 - how to reset to factory settings?

    Hello everyone,

    first of all, sorry for my English, it is not my native language and I do a lot of mistakes, I hope you can understand me correctly.

    My problem is that I have a toshiba Satellite A300 provided with Windows Vista op time after I have bought I installed windows 7 on it (you know, so new that I have to try). Now, my problem is I want to reset my phone. I have the recovery disks, and the folder HDDRecovery D: but my computer cannot read.

    What can I do? I tried a lot of things... How can I reboot my computer to factory settings?

    Hope you can help me,

    Best regards.

    Hi biguri,.

    After the installation of another operating system, you will need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. That means Vista preloaded with all the drivers and tools you get back if you boot from the recovery disc and follow the on-screen instructions.

    But don't forget to make a backup of the important files like photos, videos, etc., because the recovery disk will wipe the entire HARD disk.

    You have problems with the recovery disk?

    Thank you very much.
    With greetings.

    Igor.

    Hello Igor

    In my opinion, you must create recovery disk before upgrade you to Win7. I did the same thing.
    Later, if something goes wrong, you can use your disks and install Vista using the created recovery disks.

    I don't understand why you want to wait and create these disks after upgrade. This recovery creator disc doesn t create recovery image in the current state, but always the same recovery image, you got with your laptop.

    TEMPRO should work in Win7 too.

    Then, a new screen should appear and you need to choose the last option called Toshiba Recovery or something like that.

  • Re: Satellite A300 - how can I make the webcam work on Win7

    Hello everyone.

    I had no problem at all.

    And yet, I get the message after each installation/reboot of the: "the camara web esta disabled o ha Fall.ยป "Por favor, it check las web camara su configs", which would result in something like "the webcam is disabled or it has failed. Please check the configuration of your webcam. I've been browsing the forum for related issues, but I have not found any solution :(

    Thanks in advance,
