• Satellite A105-S361 - update Bios do DVD cannot reboot

  Hi all.

  I have a Satellite A105 S361. I guess I got the BIOS 1.70 software.
  because there are two possible updates for her in the Toshiba download website.

  So, I've recently updated my BIOS v2.0. In fact, he warned that after the update
  It would be impossible to return to v1.70, but I never thought that it might cause some
  problems.

  After the update, now I am unable to boot from the DVD-ROM. I tried
  change the boot priority in the bios, by pressing 'C' (stands for CD)
  in the trunk to the top, also press F12 to bring the boot list. Also
  I tried with my recovery cd and about 5 linux CD bootable.
  None of this has been successful and if I remember the update of the BIOS
  and eliminate the possibilities, which can be the cause of the problem.

  Then I'd be extremely grateful some hep with this issue to make it possible
  to boot from the DVD ROM.

  Best regards.

  As far as I know, this series laptop designed for the American market and as a result, you must use the BIOS from the Toshiba page we.
  I hope you have done it and used the good BIOS. Bad or not compatible BIOS can do some problems!

  However, the fact is that it of not possible to reverse the BIOS to the primitive version on the simply average. In your case, that only a technician of the ASP was able to help you but I wonder how the BIOS update would affect booting from the CD/DVD drive. IF the CD/DVD drive has been recognized and then a boot from CD or DVD should be possible.

  You attempted to set the BISO default settings? Check it!
  BUR if it doesn t help has then contact ASP in your country!

• Satellite A105-S361: CD/DVD control buttons not working not

  I am facing some problems with my cd/dvd control buttons on my satellite a105-s361 keyboard and I was wondering if there is no reason, I could find why this is so. If it's due to software or hardware problem.

  Please answer.

  Hello

  To my knowledge the A105-S361 was designed for the U.S. market and so if it s a software issue you should look on the page of the Toshiba driver we.

  I assume you mean the Toshiba control functionality of the buttons.
  The utility is not configured or does not work. In this case I would say reinstall this tool and then after phone restart, you might try to install it again.

  Note: Don't forget to check the options buttons in the control of Toshiba utility

• Satellite A105-S361 wouldn't boot CDrom or PXE Linux

  Hello

  I just bought a toshiba satellite A105-S361, I deleted all partitions & installed Linux operating system. After a few days, I find that, although everything works perfectly, I can't boot from the CDrom or network (PXE). No matter how I change the settings in the BIOS, it is just try to boot from the CD or network, it goes straight to the startup hard disk!

  I was wondering if the hidden partition that toshiba use for its "express media player", has nothing to do with helping start the laptop cdrom/lan as well!

  Otherwise, no idea why I can't boot from them?
  I'm really worried how to fix my laptop, should I have to re - install any OS!

  Hello

  First of all, you have installed Linux on the unit and Toshiba doesn't support this OS.
  Toshiba delivered and designed only with a Microsoft Windows operating system.
  I don't know if your question has anything to do with LINUX on your laptop but if the function m worked with the Windows operating system, so it must be a Linux question.

• Satellite A105-S361: screen becomes dark gray with gray fine lines

  I have a new laptop Satellite A105-S361 and seem to have display problems. My screen turns dark gray (with fine gray lines) while I use my laptop. This normally happens after using my laptop for 5 minutes or up to 30 minutes. When I restart my computer, I get the Toshiba start screen, and then it works very well for another five minutes before aging again.
  I tried to connect to an external monitor and it works fine.

  I also installed a new BIOS, but I still have the same problem.

  Any suggestions?

  Hi, Ahmed.

  It sounds like a problem with your inverter FL. This is the device that provides lighting for your LCD screen. The fact that you can use an external monitor shows that there is not a problem with your graphics card.

  Fortunateky the FL inverter is not an expensive component and is quite easy to change then I suggest that you only contact your closest partner of Serviec allowed to check your laptop.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A105-S361 - temperature of the processor to get high and it shuts

  I have Satellite A105-S361 and look like that get high CPU temperature and she off-ramp of the aircraft.

  I downloaded temperature some monitoring tools, but none can read the temperature of the processor on this unit.

  Sometimes, what's the problem?

  For me, it looks a bit like an overheating problem.

  Usually the laptop stops automatically if the temperature reaches a critical threshold. Then the notebooks overheat protection stops the laptop to prevent material damage.

  Especially, the temperature rises to a higher level because notebooks modules of cooling don't work properly.
  You can try to clean the fans with a professional pneumatic sprayer.

  It s a really useful tool for blowing air even if the railings of cooling and get rid of the dust and debris. These sprays, you can buy a portable computer/computer dealer.

  Good luck

• Satellite A100-999: the process of recovery (without recovery DVD/CD)?

  Hi all

  Here is my GOAL: I want to reinstall the original Windows Vista as it was when we bought this laptop.

  My PROBLEM: we never managed to create recovery DVDs (just after the purchase), always gave an error... today and to my surprise, I can't find any operating system recovery tool is...

  1. to the power of power off: I tried the button "0" (as read on the internet), but did nothing special...

  2 - I tried then in the options menu (after F8 on reboot): FIX YOUR COMPUTER
  Then (after choosing the Spanish language and the connection as a user), I tried to launch the WINDOWS RESTORE COMPLETE lo, but he said that no CD/DVD... (no current number with this = CD/DVD drive works fine)

  3 - I then tried another interesting option: RECOVERY HHD (more or less like this, as I have in Spanish version)... Just a pop-up open (maybe on the DVD recovery) but without any touch of the process...

  More complicated now, isn't?

  4 INFO:
  I could find the hidden partition and display it. It contains files and folders: a record 'source', 'boot.sdi"if I remember correctly... and maybe more...
  => I copied on a USB key and registered on a new DVD (and the image.iso of them as well) and repeat points 2 and 3 above, but nothing has changed... (the content of this DVD is read without problem on another laptop)

  => QUESTIONS:
  -This folder and files (found in the hidden partition) means that the recovery is still here?
  -Are there a special file.exe or the procedure to follow in order to be able to launch these files found?
  (my ultimate last chance: order than the recovery CD of Toshiba, if it is still possible)

  Thanks in advance
  S.

  > I understand now that these files (hidden partition) are those used for the display of this special menu (after you click REPAIR MY COMPUTER) with the COMPLETE WINDOWS RESTORE, RECOVERY HHD...

  > Is that correct?

  No, the small hidden partition is created by the Windows system, and these aren't the recovery disc files.
  Toshiba Recovery disk files are placed (in general) on the D partition, it is not hidden.

  > So I guess I should have a COLLECTION case somewhere... but I read in some messages of this type of comment: 'the series A100 not fitted the HARD drive recovery partition ".

  That could be just because the A100 is old series and drive HARD recovery was not available at the moment
  As far as I know the series A200 and new series were equipped with recovery option.

  > If not available, I'm already so on this last-chance-step explained above? This means to order the DVD of recovery on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  Here is the link to the page where you can order a recovery for the EU Toshiba notebook disk series but I don't very well if you'll be able to order this disc don't due to the age of the laptop of m.

• Satellite L25 - Question on recovery DVDs

  I have to do a clean re-install of my Satellite L25-S119. I have the recovery and the Applications DVD, but not sure if this includes Windows XP Home Edition. I've had this laptop as a birthday present so not sure if it comes with a separate Windows CD. I want to just make sure I'll be back Windows XP Home Edition.

  The recovery DVDs contains the operating system already preinstalled (factory settings). Another Windows CD is not distributed with Toshiba laptops. The recovery DVDs contains the operating system itself, all the necessary drivers and all Toshiba designed tools and utilities.

• Satellite U400-183 - need Recovery DVD and AHCI drivers

  Hello

  I tried to reinstall Win Vista Home Premium to my Satellite U400-183. I used a DVD OS Win that came with my other laptop to other manufacturing and the key that came with my Toshiba laptop. Everything works beautifully, but in some areas of Windows is still some specific parameters of the manufacturing on the other. Now is it possible to get a DVD of Windows Vista Toshiba?

  Another question is where can I get the AHCI drivers. There is only an exe file on the support site which I can't use during the installation of Windows. There must be some these .sys files, but I can't find them on the Toshiba site, so I had to install Windows in compatibility mode.

  Thanks in advance!

  PS: Sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Germany...

  Hello!

  A new recovery DVDs, you can get your local ASP (authorized service provider).
  Or you order a DVD from Toshiba directly:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  The AHCI drivers or let say Intel Storage Manager, you can download from the Toshiba site as you have already said.
  The .exe file, you must check out to use during the installation, but with the recovery disk you n t need them.
  Please read the readme file in the Storage Manager, there is an example how to extract it. Use the command line what it
  For example: - a - a - PC:------.

  Good bye

• Satellite m40x-249 "product Recovery DVD" in the other language

  Hello

  so, here's my problem

  I bought my laptop in Germany over 2 years ago that I live in Poland
  with her, I have produced recovery DVDs, German edition of course
  but my disk got zero terrible and I can't use it anymore

  is it possible to get a new one, not specifically in German, it can be in Polish (I prefer) and how much it will cost me?

  and I can make my own recovery DVDs, I already installed XP from another cd, found most of the drivers I needed (from site Web from Toshiba) but still i find some:

  DLA V4.95BUILD490B69B
  InterVideo windvd 5.0B11.475 - I0203
  V8.02.05 warranty booklet
  manuals V5.16
  Save now V7.22BUILD720B80E
  secure module SD V1.0.2
  Toshiba zoom hook V2.31.0.2C

  Anyone know where I can find them, I would be grateful

  THX in advance

  Other tools are only additional software that are provided with the laptop.
  This software is only available on the Toshiba Recovery CD and cannot be downloaded.
  All Toshiba drivers are published on the Toshiba page!

  If you wish, you can order the recovery CD of the ASP where you bought the laptop. In you case it s Germany.
  Finally and most importantly the recovery CD can be ordered only in the same language.
  If you bought the laptop in Germany, you will only get the recovery in relevant language CD.

  I'm not sure about the cost but it must be very cheap!
  Contact the ASP and simply ask!

  Best regards

• How to set the Satellite A100-596 to factory without Recovery DVD settings

  I gave my young niece of my old laptop A100-596 for Christmas.
  It worked perfectly on Christmas Eve I packed it upward, in packing of origin, but at the time my niece connected on it has lost 40 GB of data among the drives C and E - everything E drive and the dvd drive had stopped working!

  Now, no one has any explanation for what is happening, nor any reason why a laptop that has performed flawlessly for 18 months would suddenly lose 3/4 of the data on it, but whatever!

  So now I want to restore it to factory, but without a job settings dvd, how? I have all disks involved in perfect condition!
  In addition, I want to fool proof so it can be retrieved in case the person or nothing damaged, this time he cannot repeat the action.

  So I think that if I partition the hard drive so that the recovery of files is accessible by me with a password, which I will NOT share with any of the children, if they bumble once again, then I will be able to recover.

  Moreover, even restoring the system files have disappeared, so I can't even it roll back to a working condition!

  Any advice?

  Hello

  You wrote so much and I think it's the best we descuss all questions slowly.

  I don't know what you mean under non-working DVDs. Is the drive defective optical drive or media DVD is not readable?

  Anyway, the fact is that if you want to have the factory again settings you must install operating system using Toshiba DVD recovery. If you don't have it you can do clean OS installation using the Microsoft DVD facilities. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities are available on the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page > support & downloads.

  When you use recovery media Toshiba HARD whole disc will be erased. Absolutely everything. All data and partitions.
  What you want to do with recovering data unfortunately will not work. You cannot copy the recovery image and start it from the other partitions. Not on Satellite A100.

  On new A300, something like this is possible because the recovery image is stored on the second partition in folder HDDRecovery.

  If you have any other questions please let us know.

  I have an A105 Satellite.

  I lost the recovery disk that came with it, and I need to recover my entire hard drive.

  How can I do this

  You can order the recovery of the ASP disk in your country or you try to reinstall the operating system by using the original Microsoft disc.
