Re: System Restore disk compatibility with disk HARD Non - Toshiba

I have problems with my hard drive and decided to change hard drive Toshiba. If the restore for my laptop disk may be able to work with a no toshiba hard drive if the whole system is the same?

Why not? I don't see any problem there.

  • Windows XP system restore Boot Failure with new hard drive

    HP Touchsmart IQ546t running Windows XP Home Edition

    Here is my story:

    A few months ago my PC was informing me that a hard disk failure is imminent and how can I back up my data.

    I was able to get most of the data backed up and has continued to use the PC.

    Finally, the hard drive failed.

    Not being not able to find system restore disks, I ordered a set of HP.

    In the meantime, I was able to save the rest of my data using an external hard drive enclosure, a laptop and a backup disk.

    I used system restore discs to erase the hard drive and restore the operating system.

    After the successful restoration, I was able to boot my PC and use it for a few days, but again became imminent hard disk failure message. Yet once again, the hard drive failed and I was unable to use it.

    I decided to replace the hard drive, thinking I could install and use the system restore disks to get the installed operating system.

    I followed all the instructions, I find and could not start the machine to the point he will recognize the recovery disc. I receive a message that tells me to insert a bootable media.

    Does anyone know what I'm missing here?

    Is there something I can try to get the hard drive to boot to the point he will recognize the recovery disk?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Hello

    OPS, sorry on this subject.  If the recovery discs are not recognized not so you act have a problem trying to get the new HDD to be restored.

    Try the procedure below and see what happens.  View your results.

    Cyberlink CD recovery for hard drives. When you created this CD, insert it into the system that fails to start, restart, and wait until you see a window with a green check mark.  Next, remove the CD and insert your first recovery DVDs.  Reboot the PC and go through the process of installing the operating system again.  If all goes well, it should install properly this time.

    you do not etc system restore disk cleanup to put your computer to the standards of the factory how you bought it if that's what you hear

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of vista recovery discs and also ask them if you have a vista recovery partition on your hard drive to reinstall vista back to factory standards

    you will normally need to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process vista back to factory standards

    Ask them the sequence of keys to use to start the process from the recovery partition

  • Compaq Presario CQ50-139wm system restore disks required

    I have a laptop Compaq Presario CQ50-139wm.  The hard drive has been damaged without repair possible and I put a new hard drive in it, but I have system restore disks.  They are no longer available for purchase.  Anyone know where I can get a set?  The original operating system is Windows Vista.

    Hello:

    I don't see that HP has them.

    It would link to the recovery media to order on the Vista 32 bit laptop driver page.

    But can call HP and ask first. Maybe you can order them by phone and they would cost less ordering them to surgeons in the computer.

    If HP does no more, you can still get this provider on the link below.

  • file missing or corrupt XP Windows, system restore disks do not work. Help, like xp, like vista or win 7

    My desktop has windows xp media center edition with Service Pack 3 for years, there work and maybe it's time to junk food, however my laptop has windows vista, which I don't like, I have seen windows 7 and am not fond of him either, so what can I do? When I load the system restore disks that it doesn't load until a certain point where it says it is to copy the files, then tells me that the restore is complete. When to start again, I said the file "\system32\hal.dll ' is corrupted or missing and reinstall... How do I do that?  Thanks for any help.

    I'm writing this in case others have had the same problem, I had and it was impossible to restore.

    When I pressed "del" and got the installer, I looked in the first box, product information.

    This info was typed in a field of google search on a working pc, and I discovered that I could restore my pc by pressing the ALT key and pressing F8 repeatedly. It will work for Acer Asprire anyway. Just an idea for all those who were distraught as I was and knew nothing about the restoration or what my pc really was. I was lucky and got my restored xp, it works ok and I enjoy it once more.

    Good luck to all of you who have had the same problem I did.

    Whenever I turn on my pc, I find the time to scan the disk and chjeck to find errors etc, just to try to avoid

    have a pc unstabel again.

  • Recovery disk works with a disc hard non-toshiba?

    Hello, my hard drive gave me a couple of days, and I was wondering if I put a new drive hard non-toshiba in my satellite pro L10 would work the recovery disc again correctly or it will have to be the exact same hard drive that the laptop came with?

    Thank you

    James

    Hello

    If the BIOS will recognize the new HARD drive, I see no reason why the recovery CD should not be run
    But before you start the installation from the recovery CD, you need to format the HARD drive. You can use the original Windows XP CD for formatting the HARD drive!

  • Question about Tecra M4 system restore disks

    I am looking to buy a Tecra M4. Toshiba provide a "correct" restoration method I have no problems with restore disks, but have had problems with windows restore sometimes. They provide a factory restore disc or I have to look at the creation of a Ghost disk.

    I need to know just if I can start lookging for a good approx. ghosting before buying.

    Thanks for any help in advance.

    Hi Robert,.

    Portable Toshiba computers are sold with an OEM "bundle" of the software. This means that you will receive either a CD/DVD that contains an image that can be restored to the full version of the software, or a file preloaded on your laptop from which you can create your own drive can be restored.

    This disk can only be used to completely restore your system to its original factory condition, and you cannot use it to selectively restore files or individual components.

    You can also receive a tools and Utilities CD/DVD that contains specific Toshiba provided to public services.

    If you want to create your own backup copy of your data/system files, then you will need to invest in one of the packages commercial (I use Acronis True Image myself) as well as an appropriate external environment (I use a USB hard drive).

  • Yet stolen the system restore disk after that I have disabled

    I noticed that something was stolen from my hard drives recently and went in the resource monitor to check it out.  I noticed that the system process continually wrote to the 'System Volume Information' folders on all three of my drives at a heavy pace.  Some research indicates that he was at work system restore feature.  So, I disabled for each drive and deleted all restore points each through Windows system properties.  Unfortunately, which made no difference, even after a reboot.  Resource monitor shows still writing for the 'System Volume Information' folders on all hard drives 3 heavy disk.  What can I do to make this stop?

  • Satellite L 40 Vista Premium - cannot read the original system restore disk

    My satellite L40 was bought a year ago, and so far I never needed the system restore CD. But now I have a missing system file so I will try to re - install. But my computer will not read the CD, if I insert it before starting my computer or windows Vista.
    Is there a way I can download the CD to restore the system on the Internet?

    Hello

    No you can't download because that would hurt microsoft license stuff. I recommend you ask a partner in your country for replacement, if your machine is still under warranty.

    Please go here and find the service provider nearest to them for help.

  • System Restore op after failure of HARD drive and replacement

    Hello

    I have an old laptop dv9000 with XPPro factory installed SP2, since upgraded to SP3. The hard drive failed (Seagate 80Gig). I checked with the test of the bios Setup, he said "fail" and I checked by booting from the windows installation disc CD player. He said, not found hard drive. SO, I bought a disc bytes of more 1 t (same mfr Seagate, same 5400 RPM) and installed. I have a backup network (Seagate Black armor) drive and I was able to restore the last backup. The booted cd drive the recovery disc for this program, the hard drive light blinking and it seemed to be something for 3 hours, then told it was full.

    But the new drive does not start. I've read on this forum and of the joint recommendation was to use the system provided with the laptop recovery disks. I dug through the boxes in the garage and have found the system recovery discs and my 14 cd makes system restore. :-) makes to keep unwanted sometimes. But I tried the system recovery disk and it will not start in the cd player. I get a white screen with the cursor in the left flashing top. I went back to try the recovery of Seagate disk, and now it will not start either. I tried to remove the new HARD drive. with or without a cd in the player it displays the message "No Op sysytem found." SO I think that something touched the CDdrive. But it is interesting with the blinking cursor will restart the machine, then perhaps a part of the op system is loaded.

    It is an old machine, the old system of the op. I shopped Hp store and only Windows8 available now. SO I am forced either on the cutting edge with all new bugs and learning curve, or I'm trying to get this old lady will machine. Other things I've linked, hard reset, restore the default bios.

    Ideas that you may have will be appreciated.

    Hello

    The laptop is back running with the new hard drive, Yay! and a new cd player.

    Here's what he had to, for anyone who has ever has the same problem:

    The CD player was bad. The nearest local supplier on the list for assistance parts hp gave me was a suitable replacement. I installed, and the system restore disc started and ran immediately.  I decided to check and see if the windows install disc would go and restore the sytem since I thought that I had already restored the entire C: partition. He started, but did not find the hard drive. He gave an eror message that does no drive found.  I went to the hp system restore disc and running. It took several hours reformatted the drive (by removing everything I'd put) and rebooted several times. Eventually, he came with a windows desktop computer. This is the factory installed there are over 5 years old. I installed the Seagate backup software and running. He seemed to have more options running in windows he did directly from the boot cd. One of the options was to restore the MBR. I had to find out what it was, Master Boot Record. I thought that it should be restored. The full restoration of the backup process C: took another few hours, but he finished and gave a message of the operation successfully.

    Then I rebooted and got windows, connected and got my office logon screen as it was at the time of the backup. Success.

    In the future, I'll watch that restore MBR, maybe it's there, and I missed it the first time. I have a slight nagging worry that maybe something else caused both drives to fail almost at the same time. But I'm not going to fuss with it. I hope that the machine works well for a little longer.

    Thanks to those who have tried to help.

  • Computer that crashed; System Restore which threaten to wipe hard drive

    Hi all

    Today my laptop crashed. So I disconnected and tried to turn it off completely. He got to "shutting down" but does not move, so I had to leave the exhausted battery. Then I rebooted from recovery, is DVD went in safe mode and try to run the system restore. I now have a message saying:

    Packard Bell Recovery DVD!

    WARNING

    ALL THE DATA ON YOUR HARD DRIVE WILL BE ERASED

    [OK]

    There is no Cancel button or anything, just an OK button. They can't be serious, can they? (And I've read since that run the system on a disk restore is a bad idea). It seems I have to press OK or let the battery die again, either disconnect the battery. What should I do?

    Anon

    First disconnect the battery. Now, to get into the mode safe on the hard drive of your computer.  start to boot and then press F8, and then select Safe mode.  Then you can try restoring the system from there. vader95 Windows 95-7 office 97 - 2010 Ubuntu 9.10 - 10.10

    You can see if just the commands regsvr32 will get your SR calendar will, but I would still recommend the scans MBAM and SAS...
    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..
    System Restore is a frequent target of attacks by malicious software.  If SR was working before and is now afflicted, run some scans and then fix any problems.
    Remember that the system restore is not a time machine.
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    The scans using own it may also be necessary to re-register some dll (or you can do this part first, but you still have to do the scans).
    Re-record the dll is correct, even if they do not need re-registration.  You can also re-register the dll before the scans that can solve the problem, but the scans are always recommended.
    Click Start, run, and in the box enter orders following one at a time.  Click the OK button to execute each command:
    regsvr32 jscript
    regsvr32 vbscript
    regsvr32 /i mshtml
    The last order for mshtml load the DLL but can also contain a harmless warning depending on your environment.
    Check your system restore calendar now.
