Satellite A100: "illegal block size" error during audio CD burning

I just tried to burn audio CDs (summer burn DVDs very well) and I get an error message which reads "illegal block order size. I've tried loads: allowing the writing of CD in the DVD - ram tool, uninstall of DVD burner, new Nero, even a new aspi layer, but nothing is working!

Only the A100 for a little while and barely had a few CD (Maxell ones) so just found the problem. Is my DVD r/w broken? Any help would be much appreciated because it was 3 in the morning and my head can't take more!

I put t know why this error, but use in another forum had the same problem. After Reinstalling windows, everything was great.
Well, I don't know if the reinstallation of the operating system on your laptop will not solve the problems, but you can try m.

By the way: have you tested several s CD. Many brands of CD are not compatible with the readers, and you should check if the same thing happens with different brands of CD.

  • Satellite A100 Recovery CD Wizard Error Code: F3-FFFF-0008

    I just bring a Satellite A100 and a problem by performing a full restore using the two supplied with my laptop recovery disks.

    The problem came after I deleted all partitions on the hard drive and then reformatted the entire hard drive.

    I get on the above error code, stated in the following format:

    ERROR: F3-FFFF-0008
    An error has occurred
    Please press [OK] to turn on the power the computer off.

    When I try to use the Recovery Wizard.

    I will be grateful if someone can help me on this one.

    I agree with the previous user. I think it's a matter of formatting of s.
    Try to boot from the original Windows XP CD. This would format the HARD drive again.
    Then use the Toshiba Recovery CD again!

    I noticed these problems installing several times and bad HARD drive format has been mostly a reason for similar problems

  • Satellite A100-692: after an error of installation of Windows XP Prof blue

    Hello

    I bought a new satellite A100-692 with Windows XP Home OEM as an operating system.
    But when I tried to access the internet using the local area network and a Proxy Server, it does not work.

    I tried everything I knew and even ask some Forums to get a response, but nothing help.
    Then I think it can work when I install Windows XP Prof instead of the OEM Version. Because all Clients in our network work fine with it.

    But when I run the Installer (booting from CD) I get a blue screen with the message that there is a problem with the PCI (pci.sys) driver (after loading all the drivers).

    Can someone tell what I need to do so that I can install another OS?

    Thank you

    PS: Excuse me if my English is not very good ;)

    Hello

    First of all, the blue screen error message may appear due to hardware failure or serious malfunction of software.
    In your case I guess that it s a software issue because on the version OEM pre-installed, everything worked properly.

    In addition I checked the site s driver and it seems that there are drivers for 3 different notebooks to A100. In this case, you should be sure that you use the correct drivers.
    As far as I checked this laptop your A100-692 has PSAA9E number.

    But have you created a CD of drivers & tools before formatting the HARD drive? This option you will find in the assistance of Toshiba.

    However, you can download the drivers from the Toshiba site and here it is very important that these drivers will be installed in the right order!
    The chipset utility must be installed in a first time after all installations of service packs.
    The common modules are also important.

  • Satellite A300 - BIOS settings incorrect error during recovery

    Hello

    New to the forum, I had a search around so im hoping someone can help me.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAGCA and trying to resize a partition my computer become unresponsive and since then I can not load Windows Vista. When the computer starts it comes up with the error "interrupted operation: insert the Recovery CD.

    So I used the restore CD that was with my program of partition but I get a different error message saying "Incorrect BIOS settings change video buffer size" which I cannot find in the BIOS and no help from their support.

    If im now doing a Toshiba Recovery and restore my laptop, but I can't get into recovery. Holding F8 during startup to show the boot advanced options, or not taking '0' as ive read its supposed to.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Can you please tell me how you tried to resize the partition?

  • Satellite A100 - 147 Compression file error with the product recovery disc

    I have Toshiba A100-147, just out of warranty. I tried to recover with a disk, disk unpack to 69% and then I get the message "ERROR READING OF COMPRESSION FILE (1). I have no choice but to click OK in the error message box, and then quit the recovery as she stops running.

    Any help would be extremely welcome.

    Hello

    It looks like a problem with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    Have you tried to repeat this procedure?

    What of the HARD drive? You format the HARD drive using an original CD of XP MS?
    It s very interesting if a format of HARD drive could allows to perform the installation of the OS since the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    I remember that something like this has happened on my laptop s friend was not able to recover the operating system using the Toshiba CD. Finally, we found that some sectors on the HARD disk has been corrupted. Format drive HARD allowed integer and my friend was able to install the image of Toshiba.
    It's worth a try ;)

    But of course, this error could occur because of the faulty recovery CD.

  • Satellite 2430-402: 437 Application error during recovery

    Right, I've got a Toshiba Satellite 2430-402 (purchased new) for at least 3 years. I have formated several times before and re-loaded windows back on with no problems until now.

    The problem only started two days ago, when I noticed my CD drive was not recognized. So I decided to format etc, came out the disk Recovery Utility that came only with the computer to install everything, and it will not go beyond 12%. I'm greeted by * Application error 437
    Can not read the file.

    I left really stuck and cannot load anything. I fdisc / formatted /spinrite / kill the hard disk, just in case where there is something nasty on here and can still get nowhere. This is the first time I'm really stuck.

    This could be the engraver of CD or would it be the hard drive or basically the computer is nakered. I inspected the recovery disk, and they are all clean!

    Or is it because I made an update of the bios (you mind, it was weeks ago)

    Everyone please

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    to my knowledge, the Ghost image files are placed on the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    That's why I studied on the ghosts manufacturing Web site.
    It s Symantec and found this information site:

    HM http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/Ghost.nsf/0/14579a4173691f8988256abf005f4f8f?OpenDocument&SEG= & lg = fr & ct = us

    According to this page this problem seems to be due to starting the computer incorrectly when you use Ghost with GoBack on the computer.
    This problem may also occur when you use a brand or type of CD that works well with your CD - R or CD - RW device. In this case, Windows or DOS might be able to read the information on the CD that other applications cannot.

  • Satellite 5105-S702 Touch ED error during the startup process

    When I start my Satellite 5105 - S702 laptop with the v8.4.0.24 of antivirus from Computer Associates (CA) software is turned on, I get the following at the end of the boot process error message:

    Error affected

    Recovery of the THotkey failed. "
    Part took place - TouchED.exe - (THotkeyFindProc)
    Function failed - FindWindow)
    Error code: 0 x 00031402, 0x00000002

    However, when I disable the CA antivirus software and restart the laptop, I don't get the error message.

    Thus, it would seem that the CA AntiVirus software causes this error message.

    Would be grateful if someone could give advice if they have this problem with this laptop model, or the Satellite 5105-S701, or European equivalent model 5100-603, and how they have rectified it.

    Thank you

    AlanCB

    Hello

    I agree with you.
    In my view the installed (CA) anti-virus software is not fully compatible with the Toshiba Hotkey Utility or the software anti-virus doesn't recognize properly and can not handle.

    CA anti-virus does not for me but maybe you could set some parameters to ignore the Hotkey Utility from Toshiba.

    Maybe it helps if not I recommend you contact Computer Associates support team.

  • Satellite A100 - messages of weird info during the recovery process

    This is the first time I tried to recover my Vista PC from Toshiba.

    During the recovery, I got this in CMD

    "C:\boot(something here) restore s Descriptor." seq. 26 - SACL rest. "
    "C:\SWStamp.txt s restoration Descriptor. SEQ 25 - list SACL will not go away.

    Hello

    During the recovery process, you will see some messages, that's nothing unusual
    Important is that the procedure does not stop but continues and after some time, the Win operating system should complete the installation
    Wait a bit and see if the procedure would end...

  • Satellite A100-570 not start - error PXE

    Hi all

    Please, please help!

    A year ago, my laptop started showing me the following details:

    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
    PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
    Operating system not found.

    I couldn't find a recovery disk so left and used my desktop at home.

    Today all around the rooting, I came across the disc and made a successful recovery. However, due the siezing iTunes upward, I had to reboot my PC through the same question. I tried to restart the laptop several times to nothing does not.

    I need this laptop as a large part of the content of a book I'm writing on this subject.

    HEEEELLLLPPPPPP!

    Hello

    This error is displayed because the laptop could not start from other sources such as LAN.
    PXE means that laptop is trying to boot from LAN and Media test failure, check cable means that OS could not be started from source LAN.
    Maybe your HARD drive is bad and you need to replace it.

  • Equium A100-549: blue screen error during installation of the recovery CD

    Hey,.

    I recently bought a Toshiba laptop computer, everything worked perfectly until my laptop was attacked. I've got rid of the virus and went to reformat due to a lot of problems that occur. The main one being a mistake has cursed and 'Blah blah' program must be closed. As I continued to get loads of errors.

    http://aumha.org/win5/kbestop.htm
    The types.

    Now then reformatting disk Toshiba said just put the disk in the drive and turn off. I did very well. The said toshiba drive press F12 on startup and then click on run the CD. The CD starts and gets half way thro reformatting.

    Suddenly, I get a blue error screen. I thought oh well ill reboot and continue. This is where the problem started. Because I was half way thro removal/reinstallation of windows I was missing some files. I'll reinstall or try to use the Toshiba CD, I get a blue error screen.

    0 X 00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
    (Click to consult the Online Win XP Resource Kit article, or see the Windows 2000 Professional, p. 1548 Resource Kit).
    The requested data were not in memory. An address of invalid system memory was referenced. Defective memory (including main memory, L2 RAM, RAM video cache memory) or incompatible software (including remote control and antivirus software) might cause this stop message, as may other hardware issues (for example, incorrect SCSI termination or imperfect PCI card).

    Any ideas what I can do? I don't want to return the Toshiba laptop to fix However im thinking this is the only way out.

    Please if repplying try to keep technical language to a minnium. Thank you, Dan.

    Hello

    It s very strange because the installation since the Toshiba Recovery CD should work properly and without any blue screen message.
    Usually, if the BSOD appears if there is a serious software problem or something wrong with the hardware.
    I don t think that the software on the CD of restoration could be corrupted.

    Have you tried to install the OS from the original CD of Microsoft Windows? It would be very interesting to know if the blue screen also.

    However, I think that your laptop is new and the warranty is valid. In my opinion, you should ask the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner to help him because guys could start the diagnostic test and can find the fault.

  • Satellite A100-920 - blocked at startup

    Hello
    After a recent BIOS upgrade, reboot the laptop, I'm stuck at the start with F2 or F12 options page.

    But I can't go any further, the 'blue' bar showing that the reading of the boot is still in a third and stopped.

    I tried removing the battery and wainting an hour, but ineffective.
    I have the impression of having a brick instead of my laptop :(

    Someone had the same problem once?
    Thank you very much for answering.

    See you soon.

    You can use F2 or F12 to enter the BIOS settings or the start menu?
