Recovery CD work not (Satellite A10)

I have a Satellite A10S503, I bought 1 year ago now I want to format using the product recovery CD. However the procedure do not work.
1. I put the CD in the drive.
2. active on the computer by pressing F12.
3 choose the CD logo.

And then reopened Win XP.

Second, I changed the boot device main to the Toshiba HW Setup CD and I started.

This time, at the start, computer tried a CD but 'failure to support' message came on the screen. And Windows XP open as before...

To sum up, I couldn't format my computer.

I have two drives CD-ROM that comes in the box from Toshiba.
1 Toshiba Recovery CD
2. Tools & Utilities CD

And none of them works as a format XP bootable disc.

I just want to format my computer and restore factory settings. Manual Guide Toshiba says it's possible, but the procedure does not work!

Please help me to restore my factory settings.

Thank you.

Hello

On the Toshiba Recovery CD there is image that includes the operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and some applications provided by Toshiba. Recovery CD is bootable and should be used only for the installation of the operating system.

Tools & Utilities CD contained all the drivers, tools and utilities that you need for the use of portable computers. It is not bootable.

If you want the updated CD-ROM boot CD device recovery CD. Press the power button / stop and keep the button C until CD-ROM starts to read the restore CD.
Follow the instructions on the screen.

Before doing this, you can also check in BIOS's power Mode option. If you can find it please choose boot option.

Good bye

  • Recovery CD work not (Satellite A10) - need password for ghost image

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A10, which took its CD player died. I need to reimage using the recovery disks that came with it, but I can't because I don't have an external hard drive that is very convenient.

    What I can do is copy ghosting from disks of recovery on an external USB drive, boot from that and then run Ghost and picture then the laptop of the ghost image, which I copied from the CD.

    Only problem is that the image is locked with a password I do not know. Toshiba is able to provide a password or let me know how to get the required password so I can use the image on my laptop?
    See you soon

    Hello Patrick

    To be honest I don't think that you will get this password. That should give you?
    In my opinion, you should buy the new optical disk drive and be happy with your laptop.
    Satellite A10 is old enough laptop model and sides are not expensive.

  • SD card reader not working not Satellite A305 series

    I have a laptop A305 series. It's only 6 weeks and I bought it new.

    The sd card reader worked fine up until today.
    It no longer works. Device Manager shows that it is disabled.
    I tried to enable it, but it says that Windows cannot enable it. I tried to uninstall and restart.

    The computer finds the device and reinstalled but it is always disabled and will not work.

    Any ideas what could be wrong? It is running Vista by the way.

    Thank you!

    Amanda

    > It doesn't work anymore. Device Manager shows that it is disabled.
    > I tried to enable it, but it says that Windows cannot enable it. I tried to uninstall and restart.

    Go to Device Manager, even once, mark SD card controller and remove it from the list of devices.
    Then restart the laptop and wait that Windows has recognized this new device.
    Then check if the SD card controller is enabled or disabled.

    Good luck

    Summer tries to use the Recovery Manager to restore the original factory condition, the computer will restart and it will start as usual without run recovery... I tried restarting and using f11 and nothing happens.

    I tried to enter the recovery drive and make the partition active, but I get some sort of IO error...

  • Re: Satellite A10-S100 - how to replace the keyboard?

    I need to replace the card key of my Satellite A10-S100.

    What are the steps I should follow? I have to unscrew all the screws in the back?

    Hi mate,

    You never exchanged a keyboard or any other part of the equipment of a laptop? Well, maybe you should ask a technician for laptop help

    I m not Satellite A10 owner but normally you remove the keyboard first (between the keyboard and display) bracket. Under the keyboard support, you will find a few screw now the keyboard. Remove them and then you can lift the keyboard but be Ume with the cable on the underside of the keyboard.

    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite A10 S203: the CPU fan does not work properly?

    I have toshiba satellite a10 s203 and the cpu fan does not work correctly. What can I do about it?

    Hi SACRIFICE them.

    Here are some possible solutions to this problem of fan.

    1. When you have installed a base installation of MS (not the Toshiba Recovery CD) you need to install the Toshiba Power Saver and others utilities from the CD tools & utilities. The energy saver is responsible for the control of the fan.

    2. If you have a recovery based OS, you can update the energy saver of http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com site Web Toshiba under Support & Downloads - Download Driver

  • Satellite A100: Recovery DVD does not work

    I want to restore my Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop to its original factory condition, but the DVD that comes with the package of recovery does not work...

    I have load to start computer press F12, and it starts on the DVD. It says "Loading RAMDISK Image", after which I am told by Toshiba customer service there should be options to clean up the hard drive or restore Windows XP.

    However, after VIRTUAL disk, I see a cursor on a black screen, and then the laptop off and restarts. After the connection, NO CHANGES made...

    What is the problem with that? How can I really use this recovery DVD?
    Someone help me please.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The recovery procedure is not difficult.
    Just try to boot from the recovery CD or DVD and follow the Guide on the screen line.

    Your problem is very strange. You have created all the partitions on the HARD drive?
    I put really t know why your recovery CD doesn't work properly, but I think you should try to completely format the disk (also partitions), then try to boot from the recovery CD.

    Don't forget that the laptop is in the boot mode. (don t mix the standby or hibernation mode)

  • Satellite A30 - 203 - recovery disk does not work

    Hi all

    I have an old Satellite A30-203 and have a problem. I tried to format my laptop but the product recovery cd does not seem to work in deletion the data on my disk, its becomes blocked during loading files of ntfs? Now I am not able to retrieve a windows session would I need a new product recovery cd and would be able to get it?

    Thank you

    Hi dimation,

    It is difficult to say what is the reason of this but made is either it s a laptop problem itself or the recovery disc (e.g. scratches) causes this problem.

    In my opinion the best way to check this using a Microsoft Windows disk. If the installation completed successfully, you need a new recovery disk. As a result, you can ask a service provider authorized in your country! :)

    Hello

    Try to remove the battery for a while. After plug in the battery try to start the device without the AC adapter.
    Also, try to start the laptop without battery with the AC adapter / CC.
    If the procedures don't work so I guess there is something wrong with the power supply electronics. In this case, the best way is to ask the service to help.

  • Satellite A10 S203: sound does not work - just enough

    Hello!

    To my satellite A10 S203 sound does not work, I updated my sound card and the bios but nodifferents. Nothing in the system that says that I have something wrong whith my sound is just enough. I tried speakers headphones and challenging systemsounds, mp3, Auidi direct works cd... nothing.

    Any tip?
    [email protected]

    First check the status of the sound card in Device Manager.
    If there is a yellow climbing brand then you should try to reinstall the driver. (first remove it and after reboot, install a new)

    Have you checked the volume setting and the site of laptop? Eventually he s a very simple idea, but believe me, I read many comments here in the forum and a lot of guys forget this option simply.

  • Satellite P10-304: 2nd recovery disk does not work

    I'm selling my laptop.

    Help, please!?!

    I have a buyer waiting and everything seems to be Dutch!

    Hello

    It's not easy to say what's wrong with the 2nd recovery disk.
    I would recommend formatting the HARD drive completely and try again to recover the operating system. If it doesn't work, well try to contact Toshiba. Here, you can order the recovery CD. Maybe the problem of recovery will be solved as a gesture of goodwill.
    Nevertheless, the recovery cd is not expensive.

  • Satellite A50 - recovery disk is not working

    Hello

    I'm trying to do a clean install on my laptop, but the recovery disk is not working.
    The files transferred to the laptop, but once done, I get an error message that says: "the system is not fully installed. Please run Setup again."

    Does anyone have suggestions as to how to fix it?

    It took me four days to get to this point and make me very frustrated.

    Thanks heaps

    Naomi

    Hello

    What is the installation using another CD; That is to say the Microsoft Windows XP disk?
    Have you tried that?

    In my opinion, this would help to pinpoint the problem
    The error message can be linked to different issues; I mean the HARD drive or a single partition problem could also be possible.

    Try to format the drive HARD whole again. Delete all partitions from the HARD drive and check if you can proceed with the installation.

    But if you will not be able to install the OS by using the recovery disk and other disks then a question must relate to a part of the material. (possibly HDD)
