Re: Satellite Pro A300 - recovery disk will reinstall Windows OS on the new HARD drive

Hard drive of my Satellite Pro A300 failed. It has now been replaced. I ordered a recovery disk.
This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?

Also, I get this message "BOOTMGR MISSING". The recovery disc will fix this problem too?
Thanks in advance!

> I ordered a recovery disk. This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?
Yes. Without a doubt.

New HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?
If so avoid any problem.

Moreover, A300 works perfectly and much better with Win7 32 bit.

  • Install Windows 7 on the new hard drive with USB operating system recovery?

    I have an Alienware 2015 15 which does not come with a CD player. I install a new hard drive (SSD 2280 m2), so the question is how to install WIndows 7.

    While Microsoft offers an OS IOS for WIndows 8 download that you can put on a USB (with dell, I think that it automatically pulls the product key of BONE off the coast of the motherboard?) this IOS download is not available for Windows 7.

    So the question is the recovery USB OS offered by dell will allow me to do a fresh install of Windows 7 on a new hard drive in the laptop even USB from recovery of the BONES came with. My last resort is to buy a new copy of windows 7 and a USB external CD/DVD drive.

    TLDR: OS Recovery USB offered by dell will install Windows 7 on a new hard drive.

    The factory restore USB will work on another drive. I did this procedure with the media created from the latest version of Dell backup and restore on my Inspiron 13 7347 and demonstrated the creation of media and installation on a new SSD:

  • Hard disk failed to keep windows 7 for the new hard drive or SSD

    Hi, windows told me recently there is a problem with my hard drive and that I would back up my data to an external storage device, in case it fails, but don't want to backup my files because they aren't important. When I tried to access file Explorer the next day I got the warning my computer froze. I'm not him have not restarted the laptop since then in fear that it could make it more worn, since I may still need it.

    I try to order a new hard drive or SSD and won't buy windows 10 because it's expensive. Instead, I want to keep my current operating system, which is windows 7 Home premium, which is preinstalled on my laptop.  I have no recovery disks and I didn't do all the backups at all, but here is a windows 7 product key stuck on the back of the laptop.

    I was wondering if I can use the product key to install windows 7 on the new HDD/SSD and if yes, how, I would go to this topic. Also, if I can't do the wrench is it another way (because I may be able to use it yet), because I don't want to have to buy any other OS.

    Specifications:

    Laptop: TOSHIBA Satellite A660

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

    (Let me know if you need more details)

    Thanks for any help.

    If you are still able to boot from the Windows 7 Desktop on the current hard drive, try to create a set of recovery disks. See the instructions in the following article:

    https://NeoSmart.NET/wiki/Toshiba-Recovery-disk/#Create_disc_for_Windows_7

    After you create the defined recovery disc, close, install the new SSD, then use the updated recovery disk to reinstall Windows 7 on new disk SSD.

    You will need 4 blank DVDs.

  • Reinstalling Windows 7 on a new hard drive

    I can't find an answer to this question anywhere.

    I own a Sony Vaio VPCL116FX running Windows 7. A few days before, without warning, a window opens, informing me that the failure of the hard drive was imminent and do a disk backup and restore immediately, so I saved all on an external hard drive. OS as Windows Image Backup. So I bought a new hard drive, installed and am ready to reinstall all my work on the new hard drive. I went into the bios and boot priority changed external hard drive, but not joy. It shouldn't be so difficult that it is becoming.

    Because the computer is delivered with no recovery disc, the outside is all I have to work with. Sony there is no help, Vaio has been sold, and the only suggestion I can get from Microsoft is to contact one of the two manufacturers above.

    Is there something I need to do other than the steps that I already tried to engage?

    Thank you.

  • Impossible to reinstall Windows 7 on a new hard drive

    First off apologies if this has been answered recently, I spent the 2 days on this problem and the promise that I searched and google til my fingers bleed. Basically, the situation is as follows:

    -The PC tells me HDD is faulty on my Studio XPS 8000

    -J' I buy the new HDD, then get out of the old and install new

    -Position the disc of the PC operating system, get up to where I can click on install to start the installation of Windows 7 on the new drive

    -However he says there is no device driver on the disk, I put in the drivers and Utilities disc, (which came with the PC) but still no driver of the device, even if it says disk they appear thereon

    -Back to the old drive and try to make the system recovery disk - try to use USB flash drive but is not recognized, so buy dvdr discs and go through initialization and then it begins to collect files, but on many tests is not go beyond 25% full, let alone engraving on the startup disk.

    -Dell Datasafe Local Backup to uninstall and reinstall but the continuous PC to freeze at "25% collection files.

    So, what can I do, because my warranty is over? All I have to do is install my copy already purchased WIndows 7 on my new hard drive already bought, but I'm stumped at this point. Thanks for any help of cutting-edge :)

    Oh... PS. -I am in England so I don't think I can send away from the backup disks, even if the expiry of the guarantee is not a problem.

    Follow the Windows reinstallation Guide / A clean installation of Windows 7:

    http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/

    The part you get stuck on is step 6, preparation of step 8 and SATA drivers loaded during the installation of Windows.

    Note that I recommend using a .iso of Digital River, which will be the installation of more up-to-date media and the use of Activation and recovery of backup for the activation of the product. Follow the step 2 (using the files at the bottom) and stage 11 b for activation of the product. It is an unofficial solution but works very well.

    You can of course try to call Support technique Dell and request a Dell Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 DVD of resettlement.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300 - DVD drawer will not open most of the time

    I have a portable Satellite Pro A300-1NH. The DVD drawer opens not most of the time. Sometimes it does, but most of the time it isn't.
    Sometimes, if I can get a DVD/CD in the drawer for something to burn, burning works.
    Most of the time the computer does not recognize that there is a disc, and then I can't open the drawer again to get it out.

    Can anyone tell a novice what should I do to resolve this issue please?

    It looks like a mechanical problem. You need to replace or insert a PIN or no folded into a small hole on the plateau near the exit button whenever he is stuck.

  • Satellite Pro M45 overheating after a few updates and installation of new HARD drive

    I have a sat pro p4 overheated now. I tried the old hoover and this does not work. The thing is that both fans do not seem to turn on. All this happened after I downloaded some updates to put on a new hard drive, I bought.

    Now the fans are not at all turns. My m/b is actually a model of the A45 and I put a 2.0/128/400 CPU inside. The old man who was in it is a 2.4./512/533

    It seems that you have changed almost everything on the laptop.
    Motherboard, CPU, HARD drive, etc.

    Believe me; It s not easy to say why fans don t start. How everyone should exactly known what you did on your laptop?
    Maybe the card mother doesn t provide the power for the fan or the connection is failing.
    Are you sure that the motherboard is ok?

    Unfortunately, all we can do is to hear from you.
    But usually some diagnostic tests are needed to locate the fault.

  • Satellite L300 - how to reinstall Windows Vista on the replacement HARD drive

    My HARD drive has stopped working on my PSLB9E. He started making whirring noises and wouldn't start. all tests show it does not. Now I guess I need a replacement for HARD drive and watched a TOSH MK2565GSX or other similar. Problem is I can't find my Windows key anywhere.

    It is can get the key to Toshiba/Microsoft giving them all my contact information or do I have to buty a new HARD drive and install a copy newly purchased Windows on? If Yes, then I'll put W7 on I guess.

    Thanks in advance for any help I receive!

    SB

    > Problem is that I can't find my Windows key anywhere.
    The preinstalled Windows operating system and the image that is placed on the Toshiba recovery disc were already activated and therefore the serial key is not necessary.
    If you don t have the recovery disc, so you can buy this drive here:

    It s not expensive; 30 euros I guess.

  • Errors in the world when you try to reinstall Windows XP on a new hard drive.

    Original title: errors everywhere!

    Hi all:

    I recently bought a new hard drive (seagate momentus xt) for my older PC toshiba M70 laptop. I tried to re - install Win XP on the recovery disk (which came with the laptop) but I got a black screen with cursor. I repeated the collection, same thing. To check that all was well with the disc, I scanned and then installed ubuntu 9.04 it work perfect! What is interesting is that in the prior installation, he showed that win xp has been installed on the disk. Then I tried to re - install win xp - then I got this error Grub 17... I went back with the facilities and now I'm at a point where I get a message "error: unknown filesystem grub rescue >" (after the installation of ubuntu 11.04, then windows again). I don't know what to do. What I want is my xp back, I can't get ubuntu. Help, please.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi ARolle,

    ·         It is reinstall drive?

    Method 1: Load default BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) settings, and then restart the computer. Make sure that you have the CD drive set as first boot device. Check the settings by consulting the manual or call the manufacturer to do so.

    Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

    Method 2: Try to boot from the CD and see if you can start the installation.

    Contact Toshiba to get more information on the type of disc you use to reinstall Windows.

I have all the original disks. I intend to buy a new internal hard drive and re - install windows XP. How can I do that when I have everything I have is a product key?
