  I hope that there is someone out there who is able to help me!

  Hello

  Sometimes just set the boot priority in the bios menu does not work as it should.

  Try the following.

  Insert your 1st recovery disk, and then click stop the laptop.

  Now on TAP the ESC key as soon as you start the launch of the laptop Boot Menu.

  Select boot options ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Is or is not "Application and Driver Recovery DVD" bootable? -Corrupted boot safe mode fail CryptUI.dll

  I'm recovering Pavilion dm4-3170se of my daughter. My daughter did not a recovery disk and has no recent backup of its set of data files.

  Problems (and what I've done so far) are quite parallels to what the user indicated in this post incredibly detailed:

  Difference is in start-up Mode (command line or not) safe, Windows startup fails on a dll, specifically CryptUI.DLL.

  Although incredibly detailed post user is not getting into the Windows startup, I have mod... for about 30 dll before it chokes on the corrupt. I tried a number of other things to get passed without result.

  Game drive recovery of origin of my daughter bought the farm when his house burned down. So I ordered and received a replacement of HP. I am reluctant to use before retrieving his data files because it may lose 40% of its professional activity.

  The set of recovery disks delivered includes an "Application and Driver Recovery DVD". Account of > 20 years Wintel machine tradition, I presume it is bootable. Surprisingly, user detailed Post got hers to start from the DVD drive. But the configuration of the BIOS to get the DVD drive as the first choice of startup is not to begin after two trials.

  Before I pour more time into that, I want to the Collective Wisdom here.

  Q1: Is this disc HP, numbered 691822-B22, meant to be bootable?

  Q2A: If it is, imagine you I can use the command line interface to copy the DLL identified-as-bad to the HD?

  Q2B: If she isn't, why the, uh, gollygoshdarn isn't? Must be a reasonable thing...

  Thanks for all the ideas based on experience.

  Hello:

  No matter what DVD driver and HP application I have ever used is not bootable.

  It should autorun from the windows desktop once windows has been reinstalled.

  This is the only question that I can answer those you requested.

  Suggestion...

  Make your own installation of W7 ISO from the link below.

  Use to install W7 and do not delete all partitions or format the drive.

  Windows install and create a folder Windows.old to the current operating system.

  Then, you can copy all the files you need from the Windows.old folder after installing W7.

  Once you are sure that you have got what you need, use the recovery disk set to restore the hard drive on his out of the box state.

  Link to files ISO of W7 is below.  Use the W7 x 64 home premium from the SP1 media list file refresh.

  Then use this tool to transfer the iso file on a flash USB DVD or 4 GB drive.  The tool also performs the file iso bootable.

• Cannot restore my L750-170 Satellite to factory settings

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite Win 7 64 bit L750-170. I want to start the HARD drive partition recovery process, but the option does not appear in the page of rescue under the command promp option.

  I have held down the 0 key, the key F12 and the process of repairing construction, but, alas, no option to start the recovery... See here... http://APS2.Toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

  The last option next to the red arrow... I don't understand that... I have the partition on the disk, just can not access... I suspect that the o/s has been more written... What are my choices?

  Cheers in advance...

  As I see in this document is described clearly that you need to use F8 at startup. If you have the European model for laptop, you use F8 to display the advanced startup options.
  The first option, there are fix my computer. With this option, you should be able to enter the system recovery options and are offered option for installation of HARD drive recovery.

  Please note: this works only if your laptop is always the factory settings. In case you have installed the version of the own BONE this option won't be there more.
  So the question is: what version of the OS is installed on your machine?

  Only way to install original recovery image is to use recovery DVDs, but I assume that you didn't create, right?

• Satellite C660-15r stucks and without recovery possible

  Hello

  I hope someone can help me or who knows what to do. I have the Satellite C660-15r it been shut down correctly, but when put back come with start windows normally, as if it was interrupted, I clicked ok for that but instead of loading, let's make some kind of recovery only he was not able to complete this and rather said there is nothing to recover.

  It is stuck at it and will go no further, says administration system to log in however its not allowing to connect or to do anything about this or off farm then restart, I tried factory reset, but it will not work at all I've tried several attempts with 0 and other options, told me it does not work , but I can get up f2 and f8 loading up all that works well but I find no option to factory reset. It gives me options to recover, but they take the same screen with no improvement and safe mode does not work.

  I hope someone can help me I will be very grateful.

  Thank you in advance.

  Shell :)

  At first, I must say that recovery option is available if the laptop to factory settings. After reading your ad I n don't know if you still use OS install of origin that you got with your laptop or maybe the OS preinstalled on your own.

  I assume that you did not create a media recovery (DVD) use pre-installed Toshiba recovery media creator, right?
  In the use of your disk recovery situation could be simpler to solve this problem and install original recovery image.

  Can you please post model mobile exact?

• Cannot retrieve the Satellite to factory settings after installing Win XP

  I was running windows recovery then I chose 'delete all data... '. "something like that.
  Then in the Middle by mistake I turned off the system.

  After that, I tried to start windows so was in error "missing operating system". I managed to install WINDOWS XP, so I could access HDD RECOVERY but nothing happened.

  I tried pressing the "F8" key and also the '0' key when the computer starts to "toshiba" logo but it is still not send me any option to get my computer back to windows vista or you can say "out of the box.

  One important thing is, while installing windows XP its show me this HARD drive recovery exist and 973 MB is free off 5665 MB. This means that I have still all windows and the drivers on the HARD drive. Now please help to return normal system recovery or BOX STATE.

  > After I tried to start windows so was in error "missing operating system". I managed to install WINDOWS XP, so I could access HDD RECOVERY but nothing happened.

  The installation of Win XP has damage and remove the Boot Manager and options preinstalled by Toshiba and backed by Toshiba picture.

  This means that if you will be unable to retrieve the device using the drive HARD recovery option.

  You could retrieve the device back to factory settings using only the Toshiba recovery disc! But I guess that you didn't create this disk is good?

  Well, in this case, you can order this disc from here:

• Satellite U400 - cannot find HARD drive recovery option

  I'm doing a full recovery from the computer by using the HARD drive recovery procedure, but the problem that I can not find the entrance (to fix your computer) when I press F8 after you restart the computer.

  My laptop is: Toshiba Satellite U400-144

  Kindly advice what to do.

  Hello

  Normally, you can start the drive HARD recovery function if you press the F8 key to go into the advanced boot menu. After that, select Repair my computer and in the next window, you can choose the option of Toshiba HARD drive recovery.

  By the way: which OS you have installed right now? HARD drive recovery is possible on a preinstalled OS to Toshiba!
