Recovery with my Satellite A200 problem

I'm trying to use the recovery CD provided with my laptop which is Toshiba Satellite but when I insert the recovery CD and reboot the PC I enter recovery mode but it always freezes at the first page, one that looks like the MS-DOS screen where I m getting a message that says: (place the support in drive E :)
The cursor moves all the time, as if the PC is the location of the requested file but he never do anything else for hours and hours.

Please help since I ve used before recovery CD and it worked very well.

You can start any other bootable CD?
Can you please test it with Microsoft CD or Linux installations?

Please do not forget optical disc drive can read bootable media. Let's this as the first step to test the functionality of optical disc drive.

  • Strange problem with my Satellite A200

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Satellite A200-1DY.

    In the last two days, this occurs twice. When I start the laptop there are three icons, systray, speaker, battery and network icon, and then, the laptop stops and does not work. I can't use the mouse or keyboard and the cooler fan does not work.

    When I put my hand the area where it is the processor it is hot enough. I can't reset the laptop. At first I have to disconnect from the mains. After that I restart the laptop. The cooler fan starts very quickly and it removes a lot of heat from the CPU area.

    What can I do?
    Sorry for my horrible English and marry Christmas.

    Hello

    At first, I must say that your English is very good and understandable. Now after this compliment go back to the problem described. ;)

    I have too many Satellite A200 and I installed Vista and Windows XP Home edition, several times and never noticed a similar problem. I must say that all my tests were with the own operating system preinstalled.

    In your case, it is not easy to say why this happens, but it turns out that some process must be loaded and at this stage of the computer cell blocks. Usually, if you keep the Start button / stop for 5 seconds, book it should be OFF.

    You must understand that no one knows we what's your personal operating system configuration and if there are some applications you have installed the last days. Exact an application that runs in the background may not be loaded properly and blocks for laptop.

    What should do? You can enter MSCONFIG and check all entries of Systemstart. Try to disable all the stuff, you don't need and try it again. Maybe you will be lucky and find out if there is something that starting cell blocks.

    Sorry, but it's really not possible to say why this happen. If you want you can try to roll back the OS to an earlier time until it starts in the hope that the BONE will be work as before.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Recovery of the Satellite A200-TH1

    Because I met a frequent problem with my Satellite A200-TH1 of starting recently, I was told to use the disks of recovery by the seller. When I use it, after the two initial instructions (F12 / enter setup /F9), nothing happened. I chose the CD drive, and then press F9.

    Can someone help me to complete the process to get my computer recovered fully?

    Hello

    Your computer is trying to boot from CD or what exactly is going on?

    Have you tested different bootable disk to check if the recovery disk works properly? You can use a Microsoft Windows disk to test it. If this disc works, your recovery disc is scratched/damaged, otherwise, it might be a problem with your CD/DVD drive.

  • Keyboard on Satellite A200 problem

    Hi, while hoping a bit of insight into what the problem may be with my Satellite A200.

    It started with one single key works does not, then one other has stopped working. Then I would press a key, but it would come with a different letter on the screen. Then it got really bad, I couldn't use the keyboard at all because of the random letters would seem I typed, eventually escalating to the point where letters would appear constantly on the screen when the keyboard has not been affected.

    Tried to uninstall and reinstall driver, did not help. Tried a usb keyboard which was great until tonight. Usb keyboard or the laptop keyboard are working when tapped, yet sometimes random letters appear on the screen.

    I was ready to replace the keyboard if it was just a problem of keyboard, but now I'm wondering if it might be the motherboard. Everyone knows the same or similar problem?

    Nothing has been spilled on the keyboard.

    Thanks for your help.

    It's very confusing when the keyboard USB doesn t work too. At first, I thought faulty keyboard, it must be, but I'm afraid there is a serious hardware problem and I don't think you can fix it alone.

    I recommend you contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help.

  • Cannot start Recovery on my Satellite A200-1N5

    I need help please

    I can't do the recovery of my Satellite A200-1N5.
    When the recovery DVDs starts is a message says that windows couldn't start .a recent hardware or software change might be the cause (and then I followed the instructions but no change coming)

    Best regards

    Thank you.

    Hello

    In my opinion recovery didn't start at all. Please, start your laptop and press the F12 key. Keep it down for a few seconds and the start menu appears. Choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.

    If all goes well you'll hear running the CD/DVD drive and the activity on the screen.

  • Audio driver with Satellite A200 problems

    I installed XP + SP2 on a Satellite A200 successfully. I have downloaded all the drivers from the official site, but even though I installed the drivers for the sound card, the system does not recognize a sound card, no indication of speakers to the taskbar. Also, I installed the driver for the modem, but under the control panel modems, there isn't any modem.

    Hello

    I also had this problem on my Satellite A210.
    The problem was that I didn t install two important patches from Microsoft. * KB888111 and KB835221 *.

    This patch must be installed before installing the audio driver.
    If you have already installed the audio driver please remove TI (remove the soundcard from Device Manager).

    Then, install the patches mentioned and after reboot short you could follow with Realtek sound driver installation.

    This helped me and I'm sure he will also help you 100%.

    Goodbye & good luck

  • Satellite A200 - problems with the AC adapter / CC

    Hello

    The problem concerns a Satellite A200 (PSAF6A-02H01N).

    Recently, there was problems with the laptop, taking several attempts to boot to Vista, it would lock up while loading or just hang and freeze just after loading Vista.
    But once it was up and the laptop running would be happy working for hours with the AC adapter is plugged in.

    The problem got worse now and the laptop will not load Vista end without crashing.
    We have now reduced the computer down to have only a problem when the power adapter is connected.
    The laptop battery will charge normally with the AC adapter is plugged in and the laptop on standby or off.

    The problem persists with the AC adapter is plugged in and the battery removed.
    The laptop will start and run perfectly with battery and no power adapter plugged. Once the AC adapter is plugged in the laptop indicates that the battery is charging and then after a few seconds it crash or freeze and the only escape is a full stop.
    The laptop will not work under the battery power for 30 minutes max.
    I checked the output voltage of the AC adapter and this seems to be a consistent 19.4 Volts.

    Is this only a problem of AC adapter or the problem with the laptop?

    Thanks in advance...

    I lifted the previous discussions on this problem and found one that was very similar, but unfortunately the user decided not to find the problem of the road, save money and buy a new laptop instead! Hmm. !! .. seems to me like this might be a prob. material. Maybe a new motherboard?... anyone have an idea of what are the costs for that perhaps? .. an ASP or decent technician backstreet?...

  • Cannot start the installation of recovery on my Satellite A200 - 28 p

    I'm trying to restore my PC laptop Toshiba Satellite A200 - 28 p (Windows Vista Home Edition) by using the recovery disk of the product supplied with the laptop, no matter what I try to do, I can not run, the only thing that it will allow me to do is to restore the laptop to an earlier date. I have full admin rights on the laptop, there is no virus or other malware on it, all this seems to have happened because he updated with windows vista, about two days ago have uninstalled the updates, but that has no effect.

    I can't find anywhere on the laptop recovery console, but I know it was there before. I tried a lot of solutions available on the web, but none of them work. I used the recovery disc about 2 1/2 years when the laptop crashed and it worked fine then.

    Any help apprecited

    I don't remember how it was with A200.
    You only have a recovery DVD or you could also launch the installation of recovery of HARD drive using F8 at startup (advanced startup options > fix my computer)?

    In any case, the description of your problem confuses me.
    If you are using the recovery as boot drive DVD there is no console repair or some options.
    Installation of recovery on startup, you can only see menu where you have to click on next.

  • How to install the recovery on the Satellite A200-1VO image?

    Hello

    I Satellite A200-1VO and want to give it its out of the box state, but it seems to have misplaced the recovery disk if it had one.

    Anone know how it reboot without it, or do I need?

    If you n t have original recovery disk, you can install the OS by using the original installation disc for Microsoft. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download from the Toshiba download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    Problem is that, with the original recovery image you n t need valid product key and pre-installed OS will activate automatically. If you use the Microsoft disk you need activation key.

  • BIOS on Satellite A200 problem

    I tried to reinstall the bios on Satellite A200, with no result. Now I can't even boot up the laptop. When I called the servise in our town, they say that this computer have only one way to the trash.
    This computer is 3 months old. What can I do with it?

    First of all: what do you mean by "resettlement"? !!! Tried it before and she didn't? Need a better explanation!

    I have sometimes prey that users here (or new users) just explain a bit more detailed problem!
    OK, if the laptop does not start then not entirely for trash.

    Another question: what service did you call? Who was a Toshiba Servicepartner? I think that if it is an OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED SERVICE PARTNER, then they wouldn say that your machine can go directly into a trash can...

    Proceed as follows to save your machine in the Trash:

    1. click on this LINK: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871
    2. search for the of SERVICE AUTHORIZED PARTNER nearest in your country and dial Don t the same as calling you before!
    3. call them and send your machine for them. They should fix your machine because you have always guaranteed on this subject.

    That's all.

  • Closing in on the Satellite A200 problem

    Hello...

    I have a Satellite A200 with Windows XP Pro SP2 and sometimes there is when I have the OS it hangs for about 45 seconds, then start/stop start/stop. Meanwhile, the HARD disk it used a lot.

    In the user accounts from the Control Panel, I changed the way uses connect/disconnect (uncontrolled use welcome screen) when restarting the OS, I get the "Windows is shutting down" and "saving your settings" window and this window disappears. When the window disappears, I get this kick 45 seconds - 1 minute.

    I downloaded the profile "user hive CleanUp" of Microsoft and I still have the problem. I also disabled the system restore.

    Can someone help me?
    Thank you!

    You have a lot of files stored on your HARD drive? Or maybe a lot of programs installed? So in this case I recommend you:

    -clean your system with tools like "TuneUp" 2008
    -Defragment your HARD drive, you will see the evacuation is much faster with a defragmented disk (best result of defragmentation can be gained with "O & O defrag")
    -remove applications
    -get a registry cleaner and let them clean the reg for a huge log can slow down even a really powerful machine

    For example, some of my suggestion that should work...

  • Questions about the discs of recovery and partitioning Satellite A200-QH0

    I bought a model of Satellite A200-QH0 in Australia and due to the lack of forums in our country, I would like to ask a few questions here if that's ok.

    The book contains 3 partitions - partition "EISA Configuration" of 1.6 GB, the great partition of the BONE and the recovery partition. So I did the recovery DVD? s using the Recovery Disc Creator tool, as we are not provided with a real disk. But I would like to know what will make these records? My questions:

    1. they really will return that disc hard back to the _exactly_ how he was including the partition layout and software pre-installed?
    2 will be the recovery DVD works even if the disk has been repartioned? I would like to divide the system partition to give space for the files of data etc. But this extra partition will stop the recovery procedure works correctly?

    Please understand that I'm not interested in reformatting the entire disk. I want to just split the partition from the OS. But in case I need to replace the disk in the future or something, I would like to know how to close to 'original', these disks will make me, no matter what I do on the disc?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure how recovery works on the Australian laptops computers Toshiba, but I presume that the restore CD contains the image of Toshiba with the operating system Windows, drivers, tools and utilities.
    I think that if you want to use the recovery CD then the whole HARD drive will be formatted and all partitions will be erased.

    I think that the recovery partition is not created using the recovery CD because the CD of restoration has already been created for the recovery partition is no longer necessary

  • How to install the recovery image on Satellite A200?

    Hi all, I would like to do a restore to factory for my Satellite A200
    I checked their hard drive and confirmed that the recovery partition is still there

    When I want 0 and turn on the laptop, rather than the beep and the warning screen, need me only to windows Boot Manager page
    So I pressed F8 and choose repair computer, I read that I can also start the recovery process by choosing toshiba Recovery Wizard
    But when I press the Recovery Wizard, the cdrom eject and tells me to put in the recovery CD (which I did not)

    What bothers me is I checked the recovery partition is there but I can't find a way to start the process
    Someone knows the solution? Or there is another button to press when you start the machine?

    Thank you very much!

    In your case the drive HARD recovery isn't possible
    So in this case only the Toshiba recovery disc can bring notebook to factory condition.

    You have not created the recovery disc in the past well. Given that the recovery partitions seems to be available on the HARD disk, you can try this workaround

    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD4103KB0000R01.htm

    It should be possible to create a USB flash memory key or a disc using image files which are available on the bootable recovery partition.

    In the worst case if this procedure is not possible, you need to install the clean Microsoft Windows operating system. Essential drivers may be downloaded from the driver page.
