Satellite A210. Failure of the HD, lost Vista OS.

Hello
I am writing on behalf of my colleague has a purchased store (PC World), Equium A210 laptop computer, Vista Home Premium installed.

The HD is dead.

He bought a new HD replacement which I installed for him.

It has a recovery disk which I suppose is useless on a new HD no OS.

There the reception of his purchase of this laptop.

Can someone tell me if Toshiba can provide a recovery disk with a copy of Vista Home Premium, as I'm getting nowhere when I contact the helpdesk of Toshiba.

Considers that Barney

Hello

As far as I know, you can buy or order the recovery here disc:
https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

In very rare cases, only the recovery disc can be ordered only if the laptop series would be too old.
Then check out this page and try to order the CD!

See you soon

  • Satellite A210-171 - clean the fan/radiator

    I have a satellite A210-171. The fan runs strong at times, more heating and twice a day of closure, I guess I have to give it a good clean? It's anywhere, I looked I can't find instructions on how to clean my particular * do * and * model *.

    I know that I can use an air can without starting to dismantle things, but I think he needs a little more to get my laptop to work like new. Any help telling me where to look would be greatly appreciated, I hope as well as some pictures of cell being dismantled (eyes rolling)

    Thank you

    Hey Gradma Sue,

    Why you didn t use the forum search? You will find a sufficient number of threads on the cleaning of a Toshiba laptop.

    You only need compressed air spray. With this, you can blow the dust from the cooling fans and it of quite easy to use.
    I've created an interesting article from Toshiba that describes this step by step:

  • Satellite A210 - question about the battery life

    I have a problem: my laptop works only 1 hour of unplugged to electricity, so my battery died after working of 55minutes (I mean I look at the pictures or typing in WORD). Is this normal? How long is the average battery life?
    My model is SATELLITE A210/1AP (4000mAh) (my laptop is new; I bought it a week ago)
    Please write how much your maximum battery work.

    It is not easy to discuss this topic. With similar activity, I can use my Satellite A200, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. I don't know how you're using your laptop, but I recommend you to use all the power settings that can make the life of the battery a little longer.

    Check the method of cooling, power profile, reduce the brightness of the display and turn off WIFI if you do not use and so on.

    You must also understand that Vista needs far more resources than Windows XP Home edition and the life of the battery under Vista is not identical with Windows XP Home edition.

  • Satellite A210-1AO: sometimes the colors on the screen become unnatural

    Hello. I have a Toshiba Satellite A210 1AO two months ago and collided with a following problem.
    Very rarely (once a week) on the screen colors become suddenly against natural.
    The problem even if it means opening / closing of coverage.

    Really the material damage?
    The problem is rarely enough.

    Hello

    I m an owner of a portable Satellite A210-10Y but I didn t notice a similar problem; running under Windows XP OS or using the Vista.

    I don t want to publish stories great but perhaps that the problem of color could be linked to the issue of the material.
    Maybe part of laptop as displays, FL-ups or graphics card would be malfunctions

    In my view, a check of laptop would be useful and I recommend you contact the ASP.
    If your warranty is the replacement of any piece of material must be covered by warranty.

    PS; Updating the graphics driver, what would you say? Did you use the latest graphic drivers Toshiba?

  • Satellite A210 - 11-p some issues on Vista

    Hello

    I just bought a Satellite A210 - 11 p, waiting to be delivered.

    Just wondering, could someone tell me which version of Vista is provided with the laptop (as in the 32-bit or 64 - bit). I noticed a certain manufacturers seem to be using 32-bit Vista with laptop computers that use Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Turion 64 X2s... Which is incredibly stupid as his note allowing the operating system to use the full potential of the processors.

    Hope it does not come with Vista 64-bit... I'll be more upset if not.

    In addition, they always use Norton Ghost to restore CD/DVD, or have Toshiba 'wised up-up' to the use of the MS Windows CD/DVD installation now?

    See you soon,.

    > Just wondering, could someone tell me which version of Vista is provided with the laptop (as in the 32-bit or 64 - bit).
    It is a 32-bit version. Laptop Toshiba computers are always delivered with the 32-bit OS.

    > they still use Norton Ghost for their CD/DVD restore
    I think the most recent recovery CD images are developed with own software called Reco

    *@cbgamer*
    > tell us how to improve performance

    Upgrade the RAM, remove all unnecessary software and applications that are running in the context of the BONE.

    If that doesn't help, buy a laptop with faster processor, more RAM, better graphics card, etc.  ;)

  • Satellite A210-16f - after the BIOS update pops up a window with password

    Hello

    I tried to update the BIOS on my Toshiba Satellite A210. I downloaded an update from the official site of Toshiba, and then I did everything according to the instructions.
    I've updated the BIOS under Windows.
    Update at the end, a massage "updated successfully" appeared and I just need turn on the computer again.
    So I did, and there was a problem.

    When I turn on my computer now, it shows me a blue window with a password. I don't know password.
    Maybe you know how to disable the password or you know some passwords for Toshiba which corresponding?

    Toshiba doesn t have a sort of universal password, and unfortunately, no one here can help you with this problem.
    I just hope that you have downloaded the good BIOS upgrade for your laptop model.

    The password can be removed by the Toshiba service provider. They can do it in 15 minutes.
    Sorry, but buddy I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it.

  • Satellite A210 - what are the tools of Toshiba?

    Can someone please help me understand some of the utilities / tools available from the Toshiba download site?

    I am trying to install Windows 7 RC1 on an Equium A210. Some of the utilities and drivers, I can understand; for example, things like the acoustic silencers, updated the BIOS, driver Bluetooth Monitor, Bluetooth Stack, controller card, reader DVD reader, display, update Firmware, infrared Driver, LAN Driver, Modem Driver, Sound Driver, Touch Pad Driver & Wireless Lan Driver makes sense.

    I can guess, but I'd like to know EXACTLY what the purpose is of other things such as:
    o help
    o Config Free
    o Desktop SMS
    o Fingerprint Software
    O hardware configuration
    O online product information
    o SD utilities
    driver o SPS
    O supervisor password utility
    o TEMPRO
    o tiles for Mobility Center
    o Value Added Package

    I can't find any sort of description as to what these things do, and why they would be useful for me; can anyone help... Please?

    And what is the Flash Media Driver?

    The exact model and specifications of my laptopl isn't important ine relatively to this question and I realize that none of these things are certified for use with Windows 7, but this really isn't the point; I don't know what they are used to with Windows Vista or XP or.

    Respect of your question, but for the EXACT description, someone here must have a lot of time and try to explain it all. The functionality of certain tools is quite complex and you can play around with these tools to see what they offer and what you can do with it.

    My brief description of the tools here, I know:

    * Toshiba Assist *.
    Is a small tool where you can find shortcuts to the key tools and utilities.
    With these tools, you can optimize and customize the operating system preinstalled

    * ConfigFree *.
    Is a tool that helps you identify problems with LAN/WLAN connectivity. To find out what it is and how it works read help option.
    There you can find guide of how to use it.

    * Desktop SMS *.
    Should help you send SMS via Outlook or Windows mail - http://www.comunified.com/

    * Fingerprint software *.
    If the laptop comes with fingerprint sensor, this tool is for the registration of fingerprints.

    * Hardware Toshiba of installation *.
    Just open it and check all the available settings.
    Sorry, but it is not necessary to write some explanations.

    * Online product information *.
    Simply open and you will understand what it is.

    * SD utilities *.
    Format SD memory card installed, and you can format the cards you use in multi-card
    (the location where you put the cards compatible and readable)

    * Driver SPS *.
    SPS driver required for DVD playback software, if you want to upgrade your operating system.
    Otherwise the won´t of DVD playback works.

    * Supervisor password utility *.
    If you want to create a supervisor password (locks complete BIOS or allows other users to change certain features in the BIOS).
    Not required for the features, just a security feature/add-on.

    * Tempro *.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/generic/TEMPO_RELEASE_V1/

    * Tiles for Mobility Center *.
    is a Toshiba from the Toshiba Assist plugin and the other will lock the computer (like pressing Fn + F1).
    You will find in the Windows Mobility Center

    * Value added package *.
    To make things more easy Toshiba packed 7 different tools in one package. In the past, each tool has been installed separately.
    Now, using a setup.exe that each of them will be installed. VAP contains:
    -Toshiba components pilot common
    -Toshiba Utilities
    -Toshiba PC Diagnostic tool
    -Toshiba Power Saver
    -Toshiba Button support
    -Toshiba zooming utility
    -Toshiba Flash cards

    Flash media driver should help settle the multi-card reader.

    One last thing:
    Normally Don t you need to update a driver. most of the components are installed immediately after a clean install of Win7. Just update those remaining. If you are not experienced in the use of certain applications or installation of drivers, it would be the best way to allow Win7 install your machine.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Failure of the system to Vista Home

    I accepted a download of the sytem on 10.8.09 updates crashed my system giving an error message! Oxc 0190036! 2745/93173 (regsvc.dll).

    -What this means and how can I restore my system?

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If the above does not work, try to make a Bootable ERD to do a Startup Repair:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista repair disc.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    There is not a disk of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    See you soon.
