Recovery problem Satellite A200-1Y0

Hi all

my 6 year old Satellite A200-1YO has been replaced by a newer model and I thought to wipe my A200 or reset to the factory settings...

I don't have any drive and that I can remember I never had none.

I went all reset by pressing F8 at startup, go into the Advanced Boot Options and
clicking on repair computer,.

I went into the system, selected Recovery Options a provision on keyboard, and then on the login screen,

I then connected with my password and got a screen showing the following 6 options;

1. Startup Repair
2 system restore (similar to the option in the control panel)
3 Windows complete PC Restore
4. Windows Memory Diagnostic tool
5. command prompt
6 restore the full Windows operating system

I assumed that no. 6 was for me, but it seems to need a disk, (my DVD-rom is not working, but I have an external one I can use)

I went in the other option, but I am at a loss,

I thought this would be easy watching videos of Youtube, but for the most part, they advise pressing 0 (zero) at the beginning who does not work for me...

help... Please

Thank you
Rob.

Thanks for your final comments

  • How to start the installation of recovery on Satellite A200?

    I hope someone can help.

    My laptop wouldn't start this morning, so I hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart, I got the splash screen telling me to press F2 or F12, let it go and stopped the laptop to a black screen with a cursor blinking in the upper left.
    I had done a backup two days earlier, so decided it was time to do a factory restore and clean the disc.
    I stopped, then pushed the value 0 (zero) key and exploited the power button, according to the instructions. When it beeps, I release the button and it now says:
    Playing a disc error has occurred
    Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart

    And inside is:

    HARD DRIVE RECOVERY MODE *.

    I received this Satellite A200 PSAF0A - 04 X 019 a family member, who does not create recovery discs when you set up the laptop.

    I can do this is to access the recovery partition, then run a file manually, or is its beyond repair?

    See you soon

    If you can not start installation of recovery of HARD drive on a regular basis there is no other way to access the recovery image.
    To be honest I n don't know what means exactly this error. I put t know if there is a problem with the image of a HARD drive or recovery.

    What you can do now is to install own OS and then download all the drivers, tools and utilities alone or try to contact Toshiba service provider and ask if they can order a DVD of recovery for you.

  • Remove recovery partition satellite A200 - option "Erase the hard drive"?

    Hi people,

    I have a new Satlellite A200 and it won't start. Tried to run the recovery CD, but no joy.
    Could someone please tell me, if I chose

    'Clear the hard disk' then 'delete all data and partitions of the hard disk '.

    This would also remove the computer's internal recovery partition?

    I have the recovery CD, but as I said, they do not work and I was wondering if the compensation completely HARD drive then runs the disk recovery partition recovery help.

    Sorry if this is a fundamental question for you guys! I read through hundreds of threads, but could not find a definitive answer.

    Thanks in advance,
    E.

    > 'Clear the hard disk' then 'delete all data and partitions of the hard disk '.
    > This would also remove the computer's internal recovery partition?

    If you mean the partition hidden WinRE Vista then; YES

    But don t worry buddy. The Toshiba Vista recovery CD would be to format the whole HARD drive and erase all partitions, but it creates the hidden WinRE Vista back to the HARD disk partition.

  • Recovery problem Satellite L505-110 Win 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba L505-110, Windows 7 64 bit Turkish and he began to slow down recently, so I want to recover windows 7, but in some Turkish forums, guys who have tried recover like that, facing a problem.

    The problem is that Windows 7 has been set up on the computer as a 32-bit.
    I had not given a dvd of the operating system of W? ndows 7 64-bit and he said that we could easily do our own recovery DVDs using toshiba recovery media creator.

    I made 2 recovery DVDs, but now I'm afraid that I have Windows 7 32 bit if I recover Windows.
    I bought this computer because it had windows 64-bit and I paid the price if I want to continue with it again...
    It has been a year since I bought my PC.

    What should I do to recover my operating system such as Windows 7 64-bit again?

    Thank you very much for your answers.

    Hello

    The operating system was preinstalled is WIN7 64-BIT HOME PREMIUM & you also got the 32-BIT DVD
    Therefore, if you create the recovery disc, then the disc should contains Win 7 64 bit.

    I think you should just grab the laptop using the recovery disk created and I think that the 64 bit, Win 7 must be installed.

    You must press this button after you have switched on the laptop.

    I m not sure if it s is available but try it and you will then see whether or not the recovery starts.

  • C850-1CR - recovery problem satellite

    I have a laptop that was purchased in June 2013. After the disk check gave errors, make my computer unable to really start up, I decided to do a factory restore. Who got 52 percent, and then got stuck and stopped twice.

    I ordered the recovery disk Toshiba, went through the installation, but he kept asking to insert the disc after disc 2 and there are only two.

    So I canceled, decided to try again, and now it can't find suitable for Windows support?
    It is not even really more the disc 1.

    What should I do with this?
    It should still be under warranty?

    Sorry, I have to say that but main mistake is that you don't l l create a recovery on your own media.
    OK, you now have a Toshiba recovery media. To be honest, I can't explain what's wrong here and why recovery installation completes successfully.

    You can try it again. Enter the BIOS and set it to the default value. Start your computer with the recovery disc and check how it works. If the same thing will happen again maybe you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. Explain the situation and hopefully, they will be able to help.

    By the way: what is now with HARD drive? If I understand you good as disk HARD is maybe defective.
    Do you get the second HARD drive to test?

  • Recovery for Satellite A200-21dts DVD includes Vista SP1

    Hello

    My recovery DVD does not work... and I noticed this new download service, and my question is...
    Is - this this new recovery DVD come with the Vista SP1 already installed? and it comes with the latest drivers and utilities?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I don't know about you, but I'm sure that you get just copy. This means that you got the recovery as well as the original. The original is designed maybe a year ago and at this stage the SP1 was not available.
    I think you have OS without SP1 and with the drivers, tools, and utilities that was available at the moment.

    When you install the operating system, you can get info about the version of each Toshiba utility and you can install the latest versions. You can find it on the Toshiba support page.

    To be honest you don't need all that. Package of added value is important. Remove the other preinstalled and install later the Toshiba download page. I did the same thing.

  • Satellite A200 - recovery disk problems

    I just bought the (all new store big tech) Satellite A200 for a few months and not used because I was on business trip to take. This weekend, I opened it up and running for a while.

    After that I read the manual and found that I need to create a recovery from the tools provided disk. However, the problem start here:

    1. when I click on "Recovery Disc Creator", a message is display "no HDD Recovery area!, the toshiba Recovery Disc creator cannot be launched."

    2 then I call center service support and to inform that there is a problem with the "recovery disk creator" and I have to retrieve the laptop using the hard drive partition recovery (waiting when 0 turning on the system) and the next step is complete:
    a. the laptop's boot in the recovery screen function.
    b. when I try to "restore windows PC" (option 3), it is display and error message on file not found.
    c. when I try to click on "restoring the recovery disk" (option 5), it asks me to put in the recovery disk which I do not have?

    NOTE: I'm sure that the hidden recovery partition is therre. 1.46 GB. There is no way that I can access the hidden partition from a normal windows vista screen (without drive letter).

    Then, I called the support center again (now what difference person support) and to inform you that:

    1. my recovery partition is corrupted and I need to get the recovery disk again (which I did not), it's going to cost me AUD $66 (I got from HP one and cost me AUD $15 and will be free if I come and Pick-up) for administrative costs. And it is a procedure.

    2. I explain to the support staff that it is brand new in the box laptop and I consider it as defective on arrival (DOA or FOA.

    3. I also ask what causes the problem and has been a consultant with the following reason:
    a. I may have deleted the partition accident (impossible because I still can start on the recovery partition, but can not recovery which all).
    b. There may be a virus infect in my laptop which was remove my recovery file in the hidden partition (ridiculous, you can delete some files in the drive on which you cannot yet access).
    c. I should create a recovery disc when the first time LAPTOP computer service. Which it is recommended, I get a question that if I do not, or I forgot to do so, this means that the software will automatically delete the system restore image file? I have no answer for that.

    State (when I try to post this messgae), I'm still waiting for the staffs of complaint call fomr back (very tie when you talk in support of service these days).

    NOTE 2: I would like to raise these issues, not because I want something (I do both IT support) complaints but I just want to solve the problem:

    1. is there some sort (software) allow me to access the hidden drive in and out of recovery disc image, my laptop still have the partition.

    2. is there a link I can download image recovery (in iso format) disc again? I've known it is not a question of wise, but when I ask the support staff that can re - install windows vista with the license key from the bottom of the laptop and has advised that it is not work or turn on.

    3. is there someone out there has similar problem

    Hi Thomas

    I have a European model A200 (don t know what you model is) and the A200 was NOT equipped with the option of HARD drive recovery! This means that you cannot create your own recovery disk!
    My laptop came with the Toshiba Vista recovery DVDs!

    Still is it that your 1.46 GB hidden partition is not the Toshiba recovery partition but Vista hidden partition. It contains the WinRE files that are useful for repairing the operating system if something will go wrong!

    Second, the Toshiba Recovery folder is too big for the partition of 1.46 GB!
    So it is not possible that it would be placed on this s partition!

    So finally, it seems that you will not be able to create the own recovery disk and therefore, you have to order it from the ASP in your country.

  • Problem creating the disk hard recovery Satellite A200 + touch pad

    So I lent my laptop to my daughter until she could get enough to buy a PC.
    Well, I got it back that only she has installed a bunch of stuff to the point where it is blowing on vista even after than my attempts to clean I decided to start the laptop using the creation of recovery disk came with the laptop.

    But now, I used about 8 dvd discs, trying to create a good drive but I restart fr. with the disc in... nothing happens. I'm trying to spend directly in vista... and he says can not read the disc. I've recreated the disc several times and the same result and well, it was the only type of restore disc that came with the laptop]

    Also as I've gotten at the time when I use the touchpad my cursor is jumping around, is that fixable?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Sorry, but something must be wrong in your post. As far as I know Satellite A200 comes with original Toshiba Recovery DVD. You should not create anything. New laptops like A300 do NOT come with DVD recovery and each laptop user, it should only create, but not with Toshiba Disc Creator. For this Toshiba application offers another tool. The name is Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. It is not the same tool. So you have probably original Toshiba drive.

    So if you have it please use this recovery DVD as described in this thread:

  • Satellite A200: Error recovery - file Preinst.swm error: F3-F000-0008

    Hello.

    I'm really not good at computers and things, but I'll try my best to describe the error in my laptop:

    I have a Satellite A200 (with Vista), I bought about 4 months ago here in Australia. There a virus last week, so I made the recovery disc on 2 new blank DVDs using the recovery disk creator and creation process went smoothly without glitches.

    All right then, I ran the recovery disc in what, in my view, is called the start menu? Anyway, after a few minutes I kept getting an error message that has something to do with 'Preinst.swm file. After a couple of times of clicking 'continue' and see this same error message by clicking 'ignore' and running the 2nd DVD, an error message "error: F3-F000-0008". "»

    Now I assume that the error preinst.swm is due probably to a scratch in the recovery disc, or some fault in the DVD that I used and not with the portable reality itself. I just need confirmation you guys on this subject.

    I guess the best way to go is just to have an another Vista recovery disk (from the store, I bought the laptop from) then? Or y at - it another way to solve this problem I can do before I leave to the experts? I use this laptop for work so really - no laptop, no work!

    Thanks in advance.

    Really not easy to say why the restore procedure does not work.
    But for me, one thing is clear.
    If you have 2 recovery DVDs, you must always start the first!
    If you start bad DVD, you will always get an error message.

    To my knowledge the laptops computers Toshiba for the European market are delivered with all necessary CDs/DVDs and the recovery media is still in the package.
    I put t know why Toshiba Australian didn't send the DVD of recovery as well as the laptop. Perhaps the recovery DVDs are simply available, and they offer only an option for the creation of a collection. Who knows...

    However, it is s try to contact the service provider allowed in your country and ask if you can order a new CD from recovery for you laptop.

    Good luck and best regards
