• Satellite L655-1HE «Problem of HARD drive recovery»

  Hello

  I have the Satellite L655-1HE. I created a "HARD drive recovery" through "create recovery media. On the contrary, CD/DVD, I put it in a USB Flash drive. But when I used it, a mistake was "copy of splitpart or the Canadian Red Cross has failed!" After that, I can't boot my laptop more. There is a message "BOOTMNGR missing." I think I already deleted the operating system in the player. Please help me. How can I fix?

  Hello

  If you can, please try to boot again from the USB and run the recovery.

  Whatever the problem, if the recovery is unsuccessful, I recommend the following steps:

  -buy a set of recovery-store to the wire to https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu
  -If you did, and even this game fails to install, take care to check your HARD disk for problems.

  Hope this helps

• Satellite A135 - new installation of HARD drive "windows cannot be configured.

  I have a portable Satellite A135-S4467 with a hard drive failed (WD 160 GB).
  I bought a new hard drive (WD 320 GB).
  When I try to install windows vista (32 bit) on the new hard drive by using the original factory software installation CD toshiba, I get the following error message:
  "windows cannot be configured to run on this computer hardware.

  After reboot, Windows will start normally or in safe mode.
  I updated the BIOS to version 1.9.
  I tried also to install the updated RAID/AHCI drivers of intel to the windows installation, as recommended by the windows forums - I always get the same error message, even after several attempts to completely reinstall windows.

  Several forums, I searched for recommended to change the settings of the HDD (RAID COSM) in the BIOS.
  I don't know how / if to do this. When I enter the BIOS, I see the hard drive, but I can't select it, so I couldn't try it.

  It seems that I've tried everything, without success. I took care to unplug all external/etc devices during the installation as well. I also did all the drivers are for vista 32 bit.

  Help, please!

  Have you tried to install the OS using the Microsoft installation disc?
  There may be a compatibility problem with your new HARD drive.

  Do you get a place another HARD disk capacity not more than 200GB and test it?

• Can satellite M70 - I use all hard drives 2.5 "?

  All HDD 2.5 "can be put in Satellite M70 or they must have specific dimensions? For example, I thin on Samsung spinpoint [model: http://www.pricerunner.com/pl/36-765680/Hard-Drives/Samsung-SpinPoint-T166-320GB-SATAII-7200rpm-Compare-Prices].

  It will be OK for my laptop?

  Hello!

  As far as I know the Satellite M70 was available with hard drives SATA and IDE hard drives. If you have a SATA HDD, you can use this HARD drive.

  The Satellite M70 takes to load only SATA150 (SATA1) but this isn't a problem. All SATA2 HDDs runs SATA1 mode and are 100% compatible.

  Good bye

• Satellite M30: Unknow Hard Error - could this be a problem of hard drive?

  I got my Satellite M30 for 2 years now and it never gave me any problems, until a few weeks ago. The problem started shortly after I put Windows to SP2, when I played a game it would stick for a minute or two, and then continue on as usual, the problem slowly got worse and started blue screening with "Unknown hard error" and sometimes strange balloon in the lower right corner saying unknown hardware error and then freeze it. It also took a long time to start and generally do nothing.

  Assumed it was a problem when I've upgraded to SP2, so I decided to reinstall Windows and start over again, update the BIOS while I was home.

  Once this is done it seemed fine for an hour or two, but then tried to install a game and of course, the good old blue screen appears and the whole problem starts again.

  I took it to a repair shop and explain the problem and I had re-installed Windows nothing helped, and I suspected that it may be a hardware failure, I left it with them, and 2 days later I get a call saying its all fixed and ready to be picked up, I asked what was wrong with it and they said that they re-installed Windows and sound now works fine (i.e. what I their) I said, I had made and n t worked!). I picked up (and got charged £40 to have done what I had already done). I got it home and everything seemed ok... for a few hours, then blue screens seemed to tell me any physical dumping of beginning and the usual stuff.

  I think it might be a drive problem hard, like when I tried to install a game on it at night last light CD and HARD flash drive, one for about 15 seconds, then the other for a short time, data copied from one to the other, but then the HARD drive light stayed on, and I could hear the HARD disk as if it were sticky , after about a minute of this blue and close short-listed and took some time to turn back. If I leave a couple of hours and it starts fine until the next time.

  So, after my long description on my problem, I have 2 questions,

  1. could I be right in thinking that these problems are associated with hard drive?
  2. If I'm right, is easy to replace on the M30 HARD drive and where I would buy a new?

  Thanks for your time and help,

  Kenny.

  Hello

  The blue screen appears only if you play games?

  But I agree with you. In my opinion, there would really be a hardware malfunction.
  The question is - it s a HARD drive or something different?
  Hmmm. I think that the problem is not related to the disc HARD but maybe overheating?
  According to the publication, sometimes when you play games. The game is a high performance application. All devices running with maximum performance and produce heat.

  I m not 100% sure, but maybe the high temperature has a bad influence on the system and therefore the BSOD happens.
  You suggested that the laptop run properly for about 2 years. Maybe fans can cool properly because of the dust and debris. Two years is a long time if you have not cleaned the cooling modules and fans.

• Problems with hard drive on my satellite C660

  Hi my name is Lisa and I'm new to the forum, I hope that someone can help you. When I turn on my Toshiba Satellite C660 I get a message saying cannot load files with this information...

  File Boot\BCD

  Status-oxcoooooof

  Info - an error has occurred trying to read the boot configuration data of you.

  When he continues to try to load the next message goes something being changed and said something on the hard drive or the CD-ROM drive I think it was the CD-ROM drive even when...

  I'm going to be able to solve this problem or am I likely to replace the hard drive or something...

  Thanks in advance for any help/support and advice xx xx Lisa

  Did you create the recovery disk?
  If yes try to start and check whether the HARD disk access is possible.

  Before you try this BIOS setting defaults.

• Re: Satellite a660 - problem with HARD drive!

  Hello!

  When I turned on my computer this morning, first time I heard the HARD drive worked very noisy. It was like buzzing and clicking, has never been like that. Computer is 3 months old, bought in the pc world.

  If anyone can help what to do?

  Thank you

  Hello

  > he was like a buzzing and clicking on... Was never like that. Computer 3 months ago.

  Sometimes, this can happen with the new hard drive too. I recommend you save all data, if it stops working. In case you, I communicate with the service center and ask them to replace. they will do it for free. you see, it looks like mechanical problem and don't think you can fix it yourself

• Satellite A500 - 1C0 - Windows has detected a problem with HARD drive

  Nice day
  Laptop shows me that Windows has detected a problem with the HARD drive. The laptop is running slow and chops. And when you turn it, it shows me Smart failure predicted on hard disk 1. Toshiba MK-5055GSX - (S2). Can you help me? (I m, CZ)

  Hi Konyga,

  If you already have a warning on the internal HARD disk before Windows starts I would recommend sharing it and backup all data as quickly as possible.

  Is your laptop still under warranty?
  If Yes, you can get a new HDD to an authorized service provider. It would be free because it s covered by the warranty. All you have to do is contact with an ASP.

• Satellite M60-164 with Major hard drive problems

  All started about 3 months ago. Whenever the computer is started, he would get a certain distance the BSOD do turn up and disappear immediately and the computer should restart. Yesterday, I discovered the F8 trick to make the stick BSOD around for quite some time. It turns out that the problem was an "Unmountable Boot Volume". I inserted my Windows CD and ran the repair center thingydingy and entered chkdsk/r. He said there seems to be unrecoverable problems on the hard drive.

  I bought the computer 2 years ago, and I think that I only have a 1 year warranty.

  What are my options?

  Thank you

  Looks a bit like a HARD disk failure!
  Have you tried to reinstall the operating system on the HARD drive?
  Check if this is possible

  After the installation of the OS, you can try running a like for example the HDD Regenerator HDD repair tools.

  If this does not check if the replacement of HARD drive helps you solve this problem!

• Satellite A350-20 q - dead hard drive?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A350-20 q. There always work very well and I use it as my main computer. A week ago I fell asleep without turning off, and when I awoke in the morning, the system had frozen. I tried to make it respond with ctrl alt del and try to sleep, but he had completely locked up and nothing worked so I thought that I had no choice but to hold the power button until it turned off. Once I had rebooted the machine upward it started to load ok but once he had got up in front of loading with the Green scroll bar and on the Welcome screen first bells were ringing and then the hard drive starts clicking and cry, almost like a mixture of a 56 k modem and the rattling noise makes your drive hard when windows starts everything first up on the desktop.

  Now, what I'm trying to get it to load it does the same thing. I tried many things are:

  -Just leave it starts normally

  -From each safemode parameter it gives

  -Startup Repair

  - And where you press f8 and choose repair your computer.

  They all get about 5 seconds to load anything to do with windows and crashed. Clicks last about a minute and then stop and ive left in each of these situations for about 20 minutes to see if it will charge eventually but it just stuck in the same place.

  But what I want to know is, is the dead hard drive or can it be repaired with a new installation of windows. I read somewhere that the hard drives make these noises when they suffer "boot failure"? I can talk complete nonsense here I don't really know much about how to work hard disks and what it takes to get fixed.

  I have a desktop pc and another PC toshiba laptop Equium which can be used to help recover the disk hard if it's possible or even necessary. I don't mind forking out for the recovery disk if I'm sure that his will solve the problem without losing all my data. I asked a guy on a market that had a pc repair saddles but he just said ' dead hard drive I sell you a new "and I had yet to explain everything I just said that he made strange noises so im guessing that he was trying to me con.

  If theres anything I left out or any other questions, I can answer which may help to sort then I'll do my best to answer. I really don't want to lose all my data and I can't really afford to buy a new hard drive with Christmas coming ive just had our 400 pounds on getting my car fixed the fork and MOTed are therefore a bit tight at the moment so if I can fix it without having to spend any money then that would be perfect.

  Thank you for taking the time to read my post and I hope that someone out there knows a solution to my problem.

  Ross.

  Hi Ross

  To be honest, I also think that HARD drive is defective.

  As a first step, you should check if there is a way to access all of your important data.
  You can get 2.5 SATA HDD box and put it inside the HDD of your Satellite A350. Connect it to your other satellite and you will see if you will be lucky and have full access to the HARD disk. If so, back up all your data.

  After having done that, put the HARD drive in your A350 and try installing the OS using original recovery image. I hope that you created the recovery DVDs. If the original image is unable to be installed this will be the sign that the HARD drive may be... you know what I mean.
  You can also try is put this drive in satellite (if SATA HDD can be used here) and try to install the satellite image.

  Test a little.

  If nothing helps, you buy new HARD drive. Check eBay. You'll find used 300 GB HDD for 30 or 40 euros. Hey this is not big investment and I think you can spend so much money.

• Toshiba Satellite S50 - A - is dead HARD drive?

  Hello.. I hope I can get some answers from other owners of S50 - A or least maybe a tech?... are these discs defective or only supposed to last two years so you get out of your wallet again so Toshiba infiltrates the money from you?

  My father bought this laptop for me for the College and school so I can work and play at the same time it's about 2 years old...

  Model of care &: S50 - A Satellite, model # PSKKEC - 00G 007 - Intel i5 - Geforce GTX A 740 m - to-SATA 1.

  2 years... Since purchasing computers laptops are pretty perfect, I have done regular upward Dungeon defragments hard-ware/anti virus scans and every quarter I ran across a sweep of care system advanced... everything was fine.

  The only games I play quite a lot on this laptop is counter-strike Global Offensive by H1Z1... a week ago, I was on teamspeak and it said that I had a driver error and tells me to restart, I did... and that's where it went all down hill...

  I had a lot of mistakes, lack of funds etc., tried to do a reset from the pc, is not called zero also tried to try a restore of the system without success... hard disk started vibrating and making a 'written' sound (as the disc has been actively writing incredibly fast..) it was so distorted, I couldn't save any recent stuff... (last back up I did was about 3-4 months before)... no all my photos & academic materials are uploaded to servers online, so I was Biggie don't like meh, whatever... I listen to music on spotify so care to lose all that.

  My only option was to format the disk and do a clean install... what worked for one week... was able to update all my drivers download/install geforce experience and my anti virus program, log in to my school credentials and downloaded steam... everything was going a lot and yesterday after a session of one hour of h1z1 I quit the game and when I tried to open my browser google chrome that nothing answered, the button start to reset would not answer the computer literally just does not react anymore than all...

  Forced a restart and got bsod - unmountable_boot_volume - entered the command... prompt he says pretty well sound replacing each bad cluster known to man... nothing was fixed/repaired... do you have a chkdsk c:/r/f and got this - an unspecified error 766f6c756d652e63 3f1

  I am ready to throw in the towel on this... I guess that Toshiba gives a 1 year warranty on all hardware related Articles?... so there is no point in calling me to and ship unless I want to pay an arm and one leg for another 1 TB sata-one that will only last another 2 years?... or should I go to some place local tech and get them to install a crucial 2.5 "500 GB SSD?

  People of any options?... I am open for them.

  Thanks for reading,

  See you soon.

  HARD drive seems defective.
  SSD is a good choice, but avoid those that use a starforce controller, since they have more problems than others.
  The Intel and Samsung SSD seem to be the most compatible.

• Satellite Pro C660-1LR - new HARD drive but no recovery disk

  I need help for my son who is the Satellite Pro C660 1LR laptop.

  In this portable hard drive is completely dead, I have not created a disk of recovery for this system of portable computers.
  I bought a new hard drive that is installed... However, as you guessed it I have no access to reinstall an OS, this laptop works on windows 7.

  I'm not really tech savvy so if someone can advise me please do explain to the fool proof format! I try to avoid having to buy something expensive.

  > I'm trying to avoid having to buy something expensive.
  Problem is that you don't have many options in this regard.
  If you want to have the factory again settings you must install recovery disc. You can order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx of course is not free, but, in my opinion, without a doubt the best solution.

  You can buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version. You must purchase a valid license for it.
  In this case, you must install all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for more than one by one.

  Just in case you can get this installation of Microsoft and the free license you can save money.

  Believe me, the best solution is the original recovery disk command.

• Satellite a210-171 needs new HARD drive

  I took the laptop to the computer repair shop, they want to charge me £100 to replace the HDD with a 500 GB one and reinstall windows. I am not satisfied with the service, the length of time necessary to diagnose the problem or the price then I refused to let them fix it. It took 3 days to identify the problem and more they can not even give me a quote until they had installed the new hard drive!

  Is it easy enough for me to replace the HARD drive? I don't really know where he is, than only what disk HARD buy! I have the original recovery disk, it will load everything once I have replace the HARD drive?
  I need really, really little help and advice here!

• Satellite Pro P100 - replacing the HARD drive internal

  I have a Satellite Pro P100 with a concert of 60 internal HDD and would like to replace this with a 250 or 320 GB drive.

  Anyone can suggest a way to imagery of the current drive and copy this back to the new drive without having to re - install the operating system and other installed software?

  I have a couple of USB 2.0 external drives with sufficient capacity.

  Hello

  You first need to know if the more drive HARD 250 GB or 320 GB would be compatible and if the BIOS recognize this HARD drive without major worries!
  The problem is that not all HARD drive sizes are supported by the BIOS.
  Then all first check if the new HARD drive are supported!

  You ask how to get all the files on the new disk? I recommend good reinstall the OS from the recovery CD. It would be to reinstall the OS, drivers, tools, utilities.
  If you have other files such as mp3, etc it then backup to the external USB HDD.
  Then you could connect this HARD drive to the laptop and could transfer it on the internal HARD disk.

• Satellite P300 - upgrade to larger hard drives and 7200 RPM?

  I have a Satellite P300, model PSPCCA-01W073 (sold in Australia). Machine has two 320 GB of HARD drive. Yes, it's all up to 640 GB. I upgraded to Windows 7 OS and I have dual boot in to Linux Ubuntu.

  My job is editing/processing of multimedia files big and my hard drives are overexploited, so I now I am forced to exchange large files back and fourth with various USB hard drives. If I can replace the existing readers with much larger models, then I will go ahead and do it. .. But at this point, I'm out of my depth!

  I asked the support from Toshiba if P300 supports larger disks but they will not engage all the answers outside the original specifications. They suggest that I should try Toshiba users forum for more help.

  A kind person could tell me if it is possible to run drives 320 GB and the size. Also, I believe that the existing drives are 5400 RPM. My online store parts and pieces of local computer lists a choice between Hitachi, WD, Seagate and Samsung with sizes:

  (2.5 "/ 5400 RPM") 320 GB, 500 GB, 750 GB and 1 TB as well as sizes: (2.5 "/ 7200 rpm") 500 GB, 640 GB and 750 GB.

  So my second question; y at - it no advantage or disadvantage to the superior speed of 7200 RPM.

  TIA, your help should prevent to me yet an another expensive blunder.

  Longbow-00

  Hello

  Theoretically more big hard drives must be supported and should not be a big problem to use this HARD drive as the SATA controller is not limited to any size.

  Also the use of the faster HARD drive 7200 RPM should not affect the performance of the laptop even if this HARD drive faster produce more heat

  In my opinion you can upgrade to a larger and faster HARD drive
