• Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C660 - 26H - HARD drive not recognized

  I reinstall windows 7 on a Satellite C660 - 26H
  The hard drive failed on this laptop, so I added a new Toshiba 160 GB sata drive.

  When I try to install windows 7 I get the error message

  "no device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click ok"

  I get this when I would normally be choose which windows installation disc too. I guess I need driver sata for the laptop?

  Where can I get the driver for this laptop sata?
  Or do I have driver sata for the new hard drive?

  Any help appreciated, thanks!

  Hello

  First check to see if the new HARD drive is listed and recognized in the BIOS. It must appear on the first page of the BIOS.

  If his list, and save the changes by pressing F10 and access to the BIOS.

  I'm not very well if you need the SATA drivers because AFAIK Win 7 should already contain a standard SATA driver from m.

  However, the SATA drivers are on Intel page.
  You should look for Intel Storage Manager.

• Satellite A200 PSAF6A - HARD drive is not recognized. No recovery of product

  The drive HARD in my Toshiba Satellite A200 PSAF6A-0US01N is not recognized in the machine or any other computer, so I can't run any windows/toshiba repair.

  I know that readers have a factory reset hidden on the disc and press 0 to the power upward, but with the unreadable disk, how can I repair my installation of Windows Vista?

  Hello

  If the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS or other laptops, then I would say that your HARD drive is defective.
  In this case, you need to replace the HARD drive.
  In this case, you will not be able to start the recovery procedure from the HARD drive because it works badly as he has already said

  Are you from the Australia? If you need a recovery disk, I recommend contacting the local Toshiba ASP to get this drive

• Hitachi Lifestudio external hard drive not recognized on Windows Vitsa... why?

  I have a hitachi lifestudio external hard drive and it works great 50% of the time... the other 50%, I fight because it not being recognized on my computer or laptop (both vista).  I plugged it to my computer now and it will only recognize the player but is not the one with my files that I need.  I have two USB cords connected and it was working fine yesterday!  Now all of a sudden it won't work at all.  I got and rehooked many times now and still nothing.  Other USB ports are filled with our wireless mouse and others.  Is there a way to force vista to recognize something?

• Satellite A200 - hard drive not recognized

  Hello. Deploy a satellite A200.

  Original problem would not initialize only power light and hard drive light came on a second, nothing on the screen, not access to the parameters of F2. Reinstall memory, no go, deleted the test and drive hard and read disc hard ok in an external enclosure. With disk hard deleted computer will start after market boot disk and running program diagnosis ok. Can now access the settings of F2.

  Format external hard drive, reinstall and start with the startup disk, hard disk appears in the bios, the test runs diagnostic ok.
  Tried to install Windows XP and XP pro and windows twice starts to install and then comes up with an error saying there is no hard drive present, even if the Bios and a diagnostic boot disk at the same time recognize the hard drive.
  Tried another hard drive with the same problem, not recognized.

  Any ideas?

• Satellite M70: HARD drive not recognized external - various XP error messages

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M70 and I have a Western Digital external hard drive.
  Initially, it worked great, I was able to put my large collection of music, etc. on it and run a computer off to save space on my integrated HD.

  But recently I had problems with XP not recognizing HD or be able to write in it. It appears in my computer, then disappear, often randomly when I write new files to it.
  I reformatted the hard drive to NTFS as it ran originally as FAT32.

  I updated my BIOS as well, but I'm out of ideas.

  Anyone else had similar problems with XP?

  Thank you

  Will be

• Satellite M30-841 - large hard drive not recognized

  HY guys,.

  First of all, I want to say hello, because this is my first post in this forum. Merry Christmas as well!

  I am writing because I bought a 160 GB 2hard disk to replace my old 60 GB. When I troed to install it, I saw that it recognizes just 128 GB which, according to my research, is due to the LBA 48 bit not supported on my laptop (Satellite M30-841).

  I tried to everythingmentioned:
  -J' have flash Bios o update the 1.70 (last available driver toshiba Web site)
  -J' changed the downloaded XP SP3 and I changed the registry to install a key DWORD EnableBigLba.

  However, she still recognizes only 128 GB. I'm losing hope to install the new hard drive. Anyone of you has a suggestion that I should try?

  I realized that I should update the driver of my motherboard, but I don't know where they are, if there is (I don't even know the name of it, despite the use of everest - which shows DMI.

  Am I missing something?

  Thank you very much

  Icemaster

  Look, man.
  The HARD disk controller seems to support the 28-bit LBA.
  The disk controllers HARD supporting the 28-bit LBA address max 128 GB HDD.
  Controllers HDD support 48-bit LBA address bigger hard drives.
  But this is a physical limitation and you will not resolve this update anything.

  In your case, there is nothing to see

• Re: Satellite L500 - HARD drive not recognized in BIOS

  Hi guys,.

  Yesterday, my mother-in-law has been using his computer and play some games. The computer froze and I had to force a shutdown. Upon restart, the computer continued to give the following message is displayed:
  PXE - E61: Media control failure, control cable (or something similar)

  I removed the HARD drive and replaced him, with no avail. I checked the BIOS, and the disc HARD is still not save in there, so not sure the hell happened.

  Anyone has any ideas on this? I'm looking at a new HARD drive otherwise.

  See you soon,.

  Nathan.

  Hey,.

  If the HARD drive is not recognized in the BIOS more I think that it s faulty and you need a new. This is the reason why you get up a PXE boot message initially.

  Is your laptop still under warranty? Then you can get a new HDD to an authorized service provider for free.
  Otherwise, you can buy yourself but it s not expensive. You can use each interface SATA 2.5 HARD drive.

• Satellite Pro A60 - HARD drive not detected by BIOS

  Hi all!
  I received a Pro (PSA65E) Satellite A60 for free... because it has a bug! But I want to fix it and use it.
  Problem is that the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS. Strange enough, it is possible to format during the initial phase of an installation of the OS from scratch (I tried with Win XP and Win 2000), but facilities do not proceed any further because it won't start HD. If I try to install a time shild, he can't find some data already present in the HD and gives warnongs... which means that it is also possible to write to the disk.
  The BIOS screen shows: no drive.
  CD-ROM drive is OK, shown as secondary.
  I also look in the forums to nothing does not.
  Actions taken so far:
  * flashed the BIOS, now at version 1.90
  * Replaced the original HD (Toshiba, 40 GB) known to be good, by another more small (Toshiba, 30 GB)
  * Tried to remove the drive CD and checked BIOS recognizes, it has been removed and recognized it even when delivered. The same manoeuvre with the HD does not change the BIOS screen: he says still 'no drive '.
  * Tried with the BACK of Partition Magic version: it says "no disk found. Same thing with the backup came with the PC disks.
  Tried other stuff found in Fora them: remove all the power sorce, let the PC for a few minutes... open and checked for visible problems in the area of the disc HARD and so on.
  Any suggestion would be appreciated!

  Thank you

• Tecra M9-185 - 750 GB HARD drive not recognized

  I have Tecra M9-185 (PTM91E-0G4045G3) with BIOS Version 1.90 dated the 29.02.2008.
  It came with HARD drive of 160 GB, which is quite old and needs replacement. I want to upgrade the HARD drive. I tried to use the 750 GB HARD drive, but it was not recognized by the BIOS.

  Is it possible to upgrade the HARD disk? Is there a limit to the ability of the new HARD disk that can be installed?

  Hello

  Of course, the HARD drive can be upgraded.
  The laptop supports the SATA controller. The SATA controller is not limited to a special HARD drive size of my knowledge. 750Go should be supported too. But it might be possible that the BIOS is not able to manage these dimensions.
  Try a different SATA HDD with the smaller size.

  But question: why you n t choose an SSD (250 GB)?
  I have improved my Tecra A10 with a 250 GB SSD and the performance gain is amazing. The machine is running much faster and quieter

• Satellite Pro U300 - CD DRIVE NOT RECOGNIZED IN MY COMPUTER

  My cd/dvd drive is no longer recognized in my computer. It seems to be working, opens and closes and seeing little flashes when I put in a disc. but the disc does not load and the hard drive is not available in 'computer '.

  Ive tried the Device Manager. He comes in there, and ive done the scan for hardware changes and its still not to come. Ive also tried the microsoft help forum, and their suggestion didn't help either.

  Any ideas?

  > Ive tried Device Manager. He comes in there, and ive done the scan for hardware changes and its still not to come.
  Have you checked if the drive is listed in the BIOS?
  Check this please.

  I thought is might be only a registry key problem, but if the drive is not listed in Device Manager, if the BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive, then a hardware malfunction could be possible
