Re: Satellite L505-119 - cannot restore settings certain why?

I have owned my Toshiba Satellite L505 119 for a few years now and I've reformatted it many times. However all of a sudden that it nothing happens when I hold down the 0 button and click on the power button. The Toshiba logo appears for a moment and then I get a screen with some info on Phoenix where it at the bottom of the screen says I can press F2 or F12 (something on the selection of boot).

But the fact is that nothing happens when I press on and press and hold 0.

What I am doing wrong? I've been troubleshooting for 2 hours now...

AFAIK installation recovery image on European models laptop doesn t work with zero button but using F at startup.

How it actually works you can find in following Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

By the way: in paper manuals s user, you can also find explanation how it works.

  • Satellite L505 - 14K - cannot read Windows key label CoA

    Hello.

    I have a Satellite L505 - 14K on which I need to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium, but Windows key on the label is unreadable. Could I get a replacement for it?

    Also I can not read the HARD drive Windows code because it has been formatted before that I get this laptop in my hands...
    Maybe I can get either a phone number or e-mail address to a branch of Toshiba Polish, so I could communicate with them in this case?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    Toshiba doesn't provide the keys to series for windows systems. On the label, you'll find the serial OEM key but this key cannot be used for activation of the system.
    Toshiba offers a clean recovery image that already contains the active Windows System.

    Hello
    I have Toshiba Satellite L505-111 and I have a problem: I can not activate the Wi - Fi (sensor Wi - Fi available (off), the setting is a WiFi Enabled in BIOS)
    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    All the drivers are installed (at least in the Task Manager is no 'iron' no driver found). They stand like Toshiba as ConfigureFree especially of Radar programs.
    The Fn + F8 key combination (activation / deactivation of the Wi - Fi connection) also lead nowhere.

    What to do and how to do? Help please.

    Hello

    Have you checked the Device Manager If WLAN card is listed here correctly?

    Usually you can turn on/off wireless card using the FN + F8 key combination. If it doesn t work I recommend updating the driver WLAN. The latest version, which you can download here:

  • Satellite L505-10J - cannot play more than 30-60 min

    Hello

    I just bought the Toshiba L505-10 days last week and I'm really satisfied with my choice, but when I run a game like Counter Strike Source or Risen I have some strange problems. The first 30 to 60 Minutes are Ok, but then the sound starts cracking and my mouse stops (Razer Lachesis) shifts when I hold a key on the keyboard (for example, W to go forward). When I go to my office while playing this problem disappeared (I opened Notepad down W and moved the mouse. No problem at all). When I switch back is there once again. The only solution to this problem is to restart my computer. Then I can play the next 30-60 minutes before it starts all over.

    I have already reinstalled Windows 7, but the problem is still there.
    When I use my Touchpad instead of my mouse is the same thing. Cannot play more than 30-60 min...

    This is not acceptable, because I want to play games on my cell phone at any time.

    Hope someone can help me and sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Germany.

    Hello

    As I understand it, this problem occurs only playing games.
    There is no problem to use the laptop with another application.
    Is this good?

    Hmm how about graphic card driver update and BIOS update?
    If more recent versions are available then it would be desirable to update!

  • Windows restore cannot restore on certain dates. Tried many dates, any failure to restore.

    I am trying to restore to an earlier date, but all the dates I take returns as restore failed. Here are all the dates in bold with activity. I think I lost a line in a program somehow. Windows XP has been installed on the computer when you buy don't have is not an installation disc.

    There are some programs that unfortunately interfere with the restoration of the system (Norton is probably the most common culprit). See:

  • Satellite L505-119 - keyboard does not work after the spill incident

    Recently had a minor spill on my laptop incident. Quickly, I removed the battery and the power and let it dry for a few days.
    After two days I tried starting but without success. Then I carefully opened the laptop and carefully cleaned and dusted it all the way to the motherboard. Surprisingly, it started working perfectly again, with the exception of the keyboard and I don t know what to do.

    I tried making sure that the band is correctly inserted into the motherboard of countless times and tried to uninstall and reinstall the keyboard drivers, but both were not helping. What I want to know is; If there is anyone of you who have had the same problem, and if there is a way to check if it s my keyboard or motherboard that is broken.

    Thanks in advance

    >... If there is a way to check if it s my keyboard or motherboard that is broken.
    In my opinion, there is only one way to check: replacement keyboard. You should test the functionality with the new keyboard to see if everything is OK.

  • Satellite L505 - installer of recovery cannot complete

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L505 with pre installed Windows 7 64-bit. I have created a recovery DVD (2 discs) with Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator after the first use.
    I want to restore to factory settings now, but I can't get back my L505 nor with the HARD drive or recovery discs recovery. The problem is the following:
    (I tried first with HARD drive recovery, did not work - I have the same problem with recovery DVDs)

    1. start with recovery disc 1
    2. you start the recovery process
    3. the process creates partitions and copy images (disc 1 and 2). After it is done it asks to restart the system.
    4. after restarting, I see on the screen: «Preparing for first use...» »
    5. after 1 Minute I see the message "Please wait... complete the installation.
    6. after 5-6 Minutes, the laptop restarts automatically (without error)
    7 step 4-6 is repeatd infinitely; and I can't use the lapotop

    It seems that the installation program is unable to complete the installation. It was the same problem with the recovery of HARD drive too, I thought that the recovery disc will help you... didn't.
    After several attempts I tried to delete all scores on HARD drive, but did ' t solve my problem.

    Any suggestion?
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi kwarc,.

    I have a similar portable Satellite L500. I've had the laptop with preinstalled Windows 7 also but I n t had problems to get it back. Both HARD drive recovery works and the Toshiba Recovery disk that I created.

    I think that it s really hard to say what is the reason why, maybe a problem with the image of recovery or material. You can try to install Windows using a Microsoft disc, please?
    It work?

    In the worst cases, you need help from an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop. :)

  • The laptop recovery Toshiba Satellite L505-S5997 problem error: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-S5997 computer laptop and my hardrive recently crushed, impossible to restart.  I installed a SEAGATE 500 GB/sata/GO 16 MB of Cache, 7200 RPM hard drive. I ordered recovery for the computer disks and many of the drivers will not update or install without error that tells me that "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device.

"  You may have to restart your computer. "When I try to download the service pack from the Web site it is usually interrupted with another error.  I tried to go to the Toshiba website and download the drivers needed and utitilities but nothing seems to work.  I am at a loss to try to seek and find a solution.

    Are you sure that the original problem was caused by a failure of the HD, did you test that the hd with the utility bootable disk from audit?

    As if you reinstalled to a new HD using that the required all defined recovery Tosh disk drivers would have been installed in this process.

    Assuming that Tosh then rebooted successfully after recovery, windows update would have run some important updates automatically. If that failed then it would seem that something is happening with your system.

  • Satellite A200-196 - create a CD factory restore settings

    Hello

    Just bought a used computer (Equium A200-196) and want to restore it back to factory settings. Am a little nervous to do it without the restore disks.

    * Is it possible to get a restore CD from the restore settings already on the computer *, just in case it does not work!

    Or should I just bite the bullet and go?
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Well, if the Toshiba recovery disc creator is preinstalled on your laptop and the HARD drive recovery image files are available on the second partition, then you will be able to create the Toshiba recover disc.
    In addition, you can also try to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive option.

    For more information, check this:

  • Satellite L505 - 10K - unexpected error when using recovery disc creator

    Toshiba Satellite L505 - 10 k

    Can't do any recovery disk when I open the toshiba recovery media creator, it says: an unexpected error has occurred. Close the program and then restart it (error code: 0D00F6-49-00000015) and then I click ok and then, it is once again and then I click ok and it is once again and I click ok and then the program comes and when I create the disc it comes to audit, but then it says: cannot read the following file. E:------Boot-fonts-chs_boot.ttf (error code: 02015-20-00000000).

    I really need help, I'm afraid something will happen to my computer, so is there someone who knows something about this kind of problem?

    Grateful for your help.

    Hi putte32,

    To be honest I never received this error before but it sounds like that recovery creator disc doesn t work properly... You should try a HDD recovery to restore the factory settings. Maybe you are able to create the recovery disk.

    Otherwise, I would contact an authorized service provider. If you can t create the recovery disk, the guy should be able to help you to complete this procedure.

  • Satellite L505-141 - Purchas of recovery disk

    Hi guys,.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-141 (Ser: 3A027302K), but unfortunately he had a problem and my broken hard drive.
    I have change the drive hard and after that, I realized that I have my restore disk as well.

    I found that I can order the CD by (https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/) but this site is to ship it in Europe and at the moment I'm living in Australia. In the billing details, I can't choose the Australia.

    So, my question is if it is possible I can upload an image (by buying of course)?
    If not, how I can put in place a delivery address in Australia?

    Thanks in advance

    > So my question is if it is possible I can upload an image (by buying of course)?
    Now, to my knowledge it of not possible to download the recovery image

    > If not how I can put in place a delivery address in Australia?
    I think the delivery in regions other than Europe isn't possible and I think that the European disc of recovery for laptops models cannot be operated outside of Europe.

  • Satellite L505 - 10K - recovery disk contains only Windows 7 32-bit

    Hello, I have a question.

    I bought a Satellite L505 - 10 k a month ago. It came with Windows 7 x 64, 3 partitions (I don't know why, 3? seriously?). I tried to install Linux, delete the last partition, called 'Data' and I screw them completely. I used the recovery DVDs to bring the phone to default settings and I discovered the system recover is Windows 7 x 32.

    No idea why the systems are different?

    It's just a minor issue, I guess, the only bad thing is that the x 32 system recognizes not the 4 GB of RAM. I use now only 3 GB of RAM.

    Hi Cabo_Nobbdy,

    I think you should check your user manual and the specificaitions of your laptop first before starting a question. I founded the following information:
    + Operating system: Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (pre-installed, Toshiba-HDD recovery) and Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 32 - bit (Toshiba-Recovery DVD) +.

    This means that the recovery for Windows 7 64-bit disk, you need to create by * you *!
    The DVD that came with your laptop recovery contains only 32-bit Windows 7, and normally, you can create the recovery disk using the Toshiba recovery disc creator. I put t understand why you didn't do it because after the first start, you get this message:
    + Important INFORMATION +.

    + your system is equipped with a hard drive recovery system. If you need repair.
    + your computer in the restaurant to original factory State, you can do it directly.
    + HDD (press F8 when you start your computer, choose "Repair your computer" +)
    + and follow the instructions in the menu) or create a media drive bootable recovery to that end. +.

    + Toshiba recommends you create recovery disk medium uses the "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator' to ensure the +.
    + Hat you are able to restore your computer to the State of origin, installed at the factory, even if your computer +.

    But now it s too late for that and you have to order a new Toshiba recovery disc yourself:
