• Satellite L300 - Vista - Touchpad and USB mouse does not.

  Hello

  Well well after hours of trying allsorts, I post here...

  Been given the laptop for repair as the touchpad no longer. No problem "I thought", simply plug a mouse usb to help me get around and re - install the touchpad... what a joke.

  On the right, the USB mouse is recognized as a hid device and work, according to the Manager of devices, but not when you move it... nothing...
  The Touchpad is listed as a Synaptics ps/2 touchpad and signals a Code 10 in section mouse device as well as listed as a hid and fully functional usb mouse Manager.

  Right... I have...
  Listed all devices, even the hidden nonpresent (devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices) and removed everything only account of any mouse, keyboards, etc...
  uninstalled the software synaptics via the program Panel.
  Restarted the laptop, and it starts with the touchpad is ranked again code 10 with the version of windows drivers.
  Drivers up to date using two different files of Toshiba for the touchpad, still Code 10
  Still, the USB mouse does not either.

  Someone enlighten me please on a fix for this...

  Hello

  Really strange what s my friend because normally a touchpad driver update should solve the problem.

  In any case, have you ever tried to use the Toshiba Recovery disk? Maybe it s just a software problem and a few important Windows files are destroyed or don t work properly. Reinstall Windows using the recovery disk Toshiba takes only a few minutes and there are already all the drivers and tools integrated. With these parameters (factory settings), the touchpad should work properly, and if not the touchpad or the motherboard needs to be replaced maybe.

  Good bye

• Install Vista Home Premium Toshiba Recovery disk

  Hello

  I question: is it possible to install Vista recovery disk without erase all data on the HARD drive and destroy the current configuration partition?

  Question II: Is it possible to to somehow 'get' the installation of Vista from Toshiba recovery disc files,
  integrate em with SP1 and train a separate Vista installation disc?

  Question III: How much space do you think I should spare for the primary partition for Vista OS only (file and all the other software will be on other partitions)?

  (1) No, it is not possible to install Vista from the Toshiba Recovery disk without format the whole HARD drive.
  You can only use the HARD drive recovery feature if you don t want to erase the whole HARD drive. Then only the first partition is erased.

  (2) No, this is not possible. The recovery disk contains factory settings in an image and you can change something. You must install SP1 after installing Windows.

  (3) you must use the 15 or 20 GB for the system partition, but if you reinstall Vista, you reinstall all of the programs. So you can install all the programs on the first partition.
  Here is a useful article on the Vista partition Manager:

• HDD Recovery Fail on Satellite L300 Vista

  I'm arrogant and not install virus protection software and eventually get drowned in the spyware rather than go through the hassle of trying to remove each of them so that they slow down the computer to a halt, I decided to restore the factory State.

  It seems easy, but now after the first part (a command window with a percentage) he told me that he had no HARD drive recovery.
  What can I do now that I can't use my computer, I don't have a Vista disc because Toshiba has asserted that I could recover from the hard drive I could use XP if there is no quick fix I have a drive for this, but how easy is it to find and install all the drivers, incidentally It's a Satellite L300.

  I have no idea why the recovery partition does not work that way, while the guys do you recommend I do?

  Thanks, man.

  > It seems easy, but now after the first part (a command window with a percentage) he told me that he had no HARD drive recovery. What can I do now that I can't use my computer, I don't have a Vista disc

  Have you tried to start the HARD drive recovery?
  Simply press the F8 key after laptop powered upwards and choose fix my computer.

  Usually, this will help you start the recovery disk again.

  If this is not possible then you will not be able to recover the laptop without the Toshiba recovery disc.
  He really stupid situation if you didn't create the recovery disk before this problem happened :(

  Well, your last chance would be this site:

  Here you can order a new Toshiba Vista recovery disk

• Satellite L300 - Vista Home, business and home?

  I have a laptop L300 crashed & I was unable to use the 'restore the computer', so I had someone help me.
  They loaded Vista Business on it (there was Vista home initially).
  The ' reader seems to be affected as I had itunes on it & its still there more HARD drive partition section.

  Anyone know if I should try & use computer restore it works again with the original settings. a professional vista now written on the original vista?

  Let me know if I need to provide more information.

  > Is - anyone know if I should try & use computer restore it works again with the original settings. a professional vista now written on the original vista?

  I assume you mean on the restoration of windows own system that would set the OS to the previous time point
  No, you will not be able to use the original settings.

  If you want to use the laptop with the factory settings, you will need to use the Toshiba recovery disc!
  The recovery disk would be to format the whole HARD drive and would all set to the same State as on the first day of purchase.

• 2 years by Satellite L300 has started playing up - recovery disc question

  Hello world

  I ve created the Toshiba Recovery Disc (s) and think I need to use it now. My Satellite L300-1AQtaking AGES to load when I turn on, it sometimes crashes for no apparent reason (it tells me memory is OK, so not a problem of RAM) and because of the other weird inconveniences.

  Should I use the recovery disks do, you think? Is it simple? It does not give to-step instructions please? Operating system is Vista.

  Thank you very much

  Yes, you must use recovery discs and make clean OS install. After 2 years of use, I think that the operating system needs to be updated.

  After the own OS, you will see that laptop will work a lot better than before.
  Please also optimize OS: remove all the unnecessary stuff from the system and configure the Windows startup. This will make the start much more quickly.

• Re: Satellite L300: Vista demands the keys to the series after update

  I should come to you today because I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite L300 and I don't know who to go to?

  The problem is:
  I do the update for my laptop last night (January 29, 2010) and now my surprise, my computer asks me to activate my WINDOWS VISTA HOME PREMIUM... thing that I don't understand. Because I have my laptop since November 11, 2008 and I have never had such a problem.

  Hello

  It's really strange since the Toshiba, preinstalled operating system (any OS there is) is already activated and you need t to enter the serial key.
  I m not sure why, but I think that Member States updates affected activation and, therefore, this pop up message.

  In your case, I just only advice;
  I recommend to recover the laptop again, you can use HARD drive recovery option which allows you to reinstall the operating system without the use of any recovery disks

  After the installation of the new operating system, try to update the new Win Vista

• Satellite L300-13R - not able to recovery

  Hello

  Problem with the SATELLITE L300-13R, fails to start Vista.
  Pressing F12 with recovery dvd, dvd loading starts, then stops after about 30 seconds, leaving a blank screen.

  We also saw the following message

  STATUS: 0XC00000E9
  INFO: An unexpected i/o error has occurred

  There is also an explanation it may be due to an external device that has not been properly disconnected or a hardware error.

  The recovery disks worked fine a few weeks ago.

  Any other ideas?

  Hello

  Have you tried the HARD drive recovery?
  You could start this press F8 at the beginning.
  Then choose repair my computer, then the HARD drive recovery.

  You must also set BIOS to default and safe settings changes.
  Then try again.

• Satellite L300: Vista complains that I don't have a genuine license

  Hello

  I recently installed a new hard drive in my laptop Toshiba L300 the previous died.

  I tried using the recovery disk and it ended fine,.
  However when Vista loads to the top it complains that I do not have a genuine license and wil allows me not, log.

  It allows only the possibility to buy a license.

  Has anyone encountered this before? and can provide me with any assistance.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Dull strange thing. Did you really use the Toshiba Recovery disk?
  I mean the image of Toshiba on the Toshiba Recovery disk is already enabled and you need t to enter the serial key to activate the Vista operating system.

  You should also know that the serial key which is placed at the bottom of the device will not work with a genuine version of Microsoft Vista.
  This is an OEM key that belongs to tot eh Vista preinstalled Toshiba!

• Error messages when you try to retrieve satellite L300 Vista

  I have a Satellite L300, which keeps freezing upwards so when I tried to do a recovery I got an error message 10 D 045 fa12 and when I tried to completely erase the disk, I got an error of the FFE 20 045D

  This unit was sent to toshiba for repair and technicians said there was nothing wrong with the unit, but my research tells me there is probably a fault requiring the replacement of the HARD drive - so now that my warranty just expired do - what I do? Can I still take the unit for repair since the issue of original warranty has never properly addressed? or is there a way I can fix the error?

  If the warranty has expired, this can be a problem now, but I wonder why you did not react immediately when you saw that there is a problem.
  On this forum, you can find several threads with the same problem and if you have time try to read this that people writing here.

  I can imagine there is problem with HARD drive, the HARD drive can be replaced but you can do it alone.
  It's really not a big deal.

• Satellite L300-135 - where to download Recovery disc creator?

  After using the recovery DVD, I already did to reinstall windows, that some programs like configfree were not installed so I had to download them and install them by myself, but the problem is that even the CREATOR of DISC of RECOVERY is not installed, does anyone know where I can download the RECOVERY DISC CREATOR for my laptop?

  Model: Satellite L300-135
  Model number: PSLB0E - 02H01HAR

  Hello

  Recovery disc creator can t be downloaded. It s only preinstalled on your laptop and included in the Toshiba recovery disc so that you could burn this disc again.

  But I m wondering are you sure you used the Toshiba Recovery disk? This disc contains normally after using this application.

  By the way: what OS is installed now?

• Satellite L300-1AS - load and operate on battery

  I have a Satellite L300-1AS, running Vista. The computer began recently to show it is "connected, charge", but does not actually charge. Start the computer normally to aid decision-making of current, however if disconnected from the electrical network and the laptop died (no charge in the battery).

  I thought that he could have the power adapter, but I also have an older toshiba which has the same exact power adapter, I tried it and it works on both machines (and two adapters to charge the old laptop)

  Then I thought that maybe it's the battery and bought a new battery (the computer is under warranty, but I needed it fast). The new battery will not charge, but shows 6% charge.

  Then, I thought it might be corruption under Vista, so have returned the computer to its factory settings, by reinstalling the software. It has not yet solved the problem.

  I also tried a few other ideas I found in Google.

  I feel that this problem is perhaps something to do with THE system BIOS, I have tried to re - install, but it won't let me, and I can't find a way to return to a previous version.

  Anyone know where I can find an older version of BIOS for my machine and how to change it to an earlier version? It is currently the latest version V1.90 from the Toshiba site.

  Hello

  This really strange boyfriend s but to me it sounds like a hardware problem... I think it might be the motherboard issue. Maybe the card mother doesn t charge the battery properly.

  In my opinion the best way would be if a cell phone technician would check your laptop. They can test the motherboard and all other parts.
  I doubt that s a BIOS because you problem n t have the problem for the first time.

  On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest ASP:

  Good luck! :)
