Satellite A100 - hard drive data recovery

Hello

I recently tried to help a friend for his Toshiba Satellite A100 data recovery, died on this screen.
I thought this would be a task simply remove the hard drive and put a HARD drive caddy and attaching it to another computer.

This doesn't seem to work.
Can I put the hard drive in the computer and I can hear start the computer to the top and was able to see it with a LCD display. I was able to delete the data in this way, so we're safe.

My question is why do we seem to remove the disc and see on another computer?
I guess it must be an interface or format the laptop can be used for the recovery section and cannot therefore be seen as a normal drive.

If I could not delete the data because say the motherboard is dead. Is it possible to be able to see the data on another computer.

Of course you can do if you want to use a symbol external USB SATA controller (external HARD drive) you should be able to connect to another computer.
But if the HARD drive is faulty, it will not work.

  • Satellite A100 - hard drive upgrade

    Hi all

    I want to improve my Satellite A100-847 with disk bigger and harder. I chose hitachi "travelstar", like the original, but running on 7200 RPM. My question is can I use SATA II 3 Gb/s model, or should I choose SATA I 1.5 Gb/s as the original. because if my laptop does not support SATA II, the hard drive will not work.

    Thanks in advance!

    Well, as far as I know the A100-847 supports a SATA interface.
    SATA II drives are backward compatible, but may not work with some older motherboards.

    If I you would be then I would not risk compatibility problems and choose the SATA/150 (SATA I) HARD drive.
    In this case, you can be sure that your new HARD drive would be recognized correctly.

    In addition, you must make sure that your new HARD drive size would be too strong.
    The fact is that not all HARD drive sizes are supported by the BIOS.

    You device was equipped with a 100 GB HARD drive. Am I wrong? Well, in this case, you might try some 120GB, 160GB and maybe a 200 GB HARD drive.

  • Advice needed on the laptop hard drive data recovery.

    Hello

    I was wondering if someone could provide some advice on the recovery of data from an ACER laptop which was held in Microsoft Vista?

    The laptop broke due to the 'PIN' inside the power supply's cable breaking. PC World said that it would cost hundreds of pounds to repair.

    I have some important files saved on the drive hard (backup files conveniently failed too!) and I'd like back them.

    What are my options? Should I seek professional IT useful to do? Or I can try to get files back myself? I currently have a Toshiba laptop that works under XP.

  • Installed hard drives data recovery serial

    As many other users on these boards, by X 205 won't start.

    My question: How can I recover the data on my hard drive, since there are two of them?

    I ran a search to find all the files I wanted (*.jpg in this case) and the search came back with hundreds of files (pictures) that I'm trying to recover... but it wont let me open them.
    I guess because the disks are installed in this machine series, somehow, I need to find a way to read them both to access these files?

    Any help is appreciated!

    Remove each disk of the machine, connect using 2.5 SATA box at the other PC as external device and you should have access to all stored data.

  • Damaged hard drive data recovery

I installed it and trying to explore my computer tells me I need to format it. I didn't thik I deleted anything on the old hard drive. It comes as Disk (I) Local what software can I use to get down the hard drive damaged my old photos and others.

    Thanks for the reply. I found a repair shop who told me they could get all my photos and others out of it for me. At a cost of $25 to $ 75. I cannot yet understand is happening other that some security software that my Bank suggested I have download. Once I downloaded it the safety scanner Microsoft occupy one would not work. After speaking with the support of software (Trusteer report) I managed to uninstall the software, but the next day after uninstall the system just kept in a boot loop. Nothing works. I don't know that I erase what either, so I should be able to get my family photos.

    Thanks again

  • How can I make a DVD of the restore hidden in my external hard drive partition recovery

    How can I make a DVD of the restore hidden in my external hard drive partition recovery because I want to recover my toshiba satellite L840 that does not respond directly to my hard drive so I put my laptop to an external HARD drive and then I want to copy a DVD recovery partition

    Your question is a bit confusing, you can boot the laptop at all? Have you tried booting in safe mode, you can make a recovery DVD set from there, the folder Toshiba.

    With the drive in the Toshiba, you should be able to use a F, F10, F11, or F12 key to activate the installation from the partition hidden started upward.

    Otherwise, you can contact Toshiba, and with the model of the product id number and the laptop for Windows, you can buy a set of disks.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hi, I have a Satellite Pro A100 with a FUJITSU MHV206OBH HD, he has been faithful and worked for at least three consecutive years, now my HD is filled with data from software etc. etc. I just changed the memory and upgraded to 2 Gygs and really the A100 is now as fast as my Dell XPS. I love my Satellite and want to install a new larger drive,
    Has anyone in the forum upgraded to a larger HD, advice, any recommendation of HD, where can I find the service manual for this.

    Best regards

    Thor Hedderich

    Hello

    In General, all satellites/Satellite Pro should have SATA hard drives and upgrade is not problematic. You can do this alone.
    If your laptop's 60 GB HARD drive only you can improve even with 120 GB or 160 GB.
    These hard drives are so cheap.

    Is that enough for you?
    Replacement is easy to do and you don't need manuals.

    The low side is set with a cover of HARD drive screw. On the disc lid HARD is placed also for computer laptop (one of the 4).
    -Remove the HARD drive cover
    -Remove the HARD drive pack by pulling on the cushion of the battery, following the direction of the arrows
    -Place the pack HARD drive on a flat surface (such as a desk) and remove the two cushions

    I guess you know now how to put a new.

  • Re: Satellite L300D - HARD drive with unknown password recovery?

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L300D of second hand to a colleague and went on to restore its framework Moose per HARD drive recovery according to the guide of Toshiba
    Link: [http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm]

    I get to part 3 and find a current user name, to which the previous owner has no knowledge of, or a password in order to continue the process. Does this mean that the previous owner has locked the recovery process or there at - it a way to recover the system without the password?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hey,.

    Theoretically, you could ask the colleague to the password ;)
    HARD drive recovery is possible if you know the password, otherwise everyone could perform HARD drive recovery and would not be without danger.

    Alternative, you can use the Toshiba recovery disc. It will be the same as the drive HARD recovery, factory settings will be restored too.

  • How to start on Satellite A660 HARD drive recovery?

    I recently bought by Satellite A660 and the laptop has been infected with can of virus will start any program even couldn't do any disk recovery. So I try to read the FAQS and guidance that I tried to do the hard drive's default factory setting.

    I follow the directions "Press 0 & combination Power button" at the start of the hard disk to recover the system.

    Make a hard drive recovery system still ask for disks. Therefore, in this case there is no solution. Please let me know how I can do hard drive recovery system.

    Thank you

    Can you please tell me what model of laptop you have exactly (A660-xxx)?
    What is this Europe or US model?

    I put t understand it. Can please explain you a little better?

  • Satellite L300D - corrupted hard drive, no recovery media, no windows key

    I have a Satellite L300D-11V I'm looking for someone who would not go further that a screen blank after windows start logo, and also when you run Startup Repair he would get at this stage even too. Now pressed 0 while starting would not bring to the top of recovery, only an option for Windows Vista.

    With the help of some high end diagnostic software I have diagnosed that the hard drive has several physical defects that could well be the reason for this purpose the reader is better off being replaced. However, because of the mistakes, I am unable to create images of the player via Acronis or similar.

    Buying a new drive no problem, but the person never did no recovery media so it appears I have to buy a Toshiba recovery.

    There is no Windows key on the case anywhere either.

    If I had to buy a Toshiba Recovery, it would be important that I have no Windows key on the presumption that the recovery would be an already activated installation of Vista for laptop?

    Thank you

    > If I buy a Toshiba Recovery, it would be important to have no Windows key on the presumption that the recovery would be an already activated installation of Vista for laptop?
    In this situation best way to solve this is to swap HARD drive, restore disk original order of Toshiba and install Recovery designed for this model laptop image.
    Recovery image should not be enabled. After the installation, it will be activated automatically if you n t need product key of Microsoft for activation.

    Original recovery disk can be ordered on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    By the way: Win7 32 bit works quite well on this laptop model then perhaps you should install has the version of Win7. Of course if you do this, you need legal product key.
    Anyway it has nothing to do with Microsoft sticker placed on Toshiba laptops. This key cannot be used for activation anyway.

  • Satellite A500 - HARD drive recovery option is no longer available at the F8 Menu

    Hello, this my phone trees.
    I reset my Satellite A500 and due to a power failure reset did not finish. When I have inexplicable with F8 I can see HARD drive recovery option, and then must log on my account that I did not at all because of the power failure.
    Then I installed a copy of Vista retail, hoping to create an account and be able to retrieve from the HARD drive.
    PROBLEM! : Now I don't see the "Recovery disk" option at all.
    QUESTION: There must be a way to integrate this option in the windows Startmenu (F8). Can someone help me with this issue? I burn the DVD recovery and the recovery partition is still there.
    Thanks in advance.

    More big mistake made you ve, it's that you don't l l create recovery DVD such as recommended by Toshiba.

    Why you didn t ask how it works before you do anything?
    You've misunderstood with username and account.

    Now, when you use your own installation, you need to remove the option for installation of HARD drive recovery and the recovery image can be installed with recovery only DVDs.
    Now, you have two options:
    -to order the new recovery DVDs or
    d ' use the clean install of the OS.

    What do you think of this?
    To be honest, I think you need to use Windows 7 on this laptop.

    I recommend you to install Win7. Download page for all the necessary drivers, you can find and download from Toshiba

    If you have more questions or need help please let me know.

  • Satellite A200 PSAF3A - upgrade the hard drive - data retention?

    Hello

    I am working on a Toshiba Satellite A200 PSAF3A with a dying 160 GB Fujitsu 5400 RPM SATA drive installed.
    I would like to replace the hard drive 400 GB 5400 RPM SATA drive in a car with a Fujitsu and transfer any existing information on it. I noticed that there is a standard C:\, a System Volume of Toshiba and a HDDRecovery partition on the current drive.

    Can someone tell me if this is possible by using disk imaging software? If so, what are the issues could meet? (eg. new player will only recognize the old C:\ partition size etc.)

    I have already created a backup of the drive image and all 3 partitions (as she made a lot of noise and possibly at its output) using shadow protect Desktop
    Toshiba HDDRecovery & the System Volume partitions don't show in SPDesktop as the affected drive letters, so I don't know if I can restore using this program. Everyone has used successfully to achieve this result?

    pus
    I also have a Ultimate Boot CD for Windows here, and have successfully used the Roadkills Disk Copy with a SATA Adapter USB to copy a C:\ on a laptop in the past. It would be a better approach? I was thinking of using this method because it must copy all 3 partitions, then just use GParted to resize C:\ to fill the rest of the available HARD disk space.

    Thanks in advance :)
