  Does anyone have an idea about this problem? #

  Thank you

  Hello Ewan

  It is not easy to say what the problem is here. Are you sure that the HARD drive is OK 100%. I recommend you scan the HARD drive and see if there may be some bad sectors. I had a similar situation with my old 1800 satellite. In the beginning, everything is ok, but with more content and more on the drive HARD, HARD drive was slower and slower.

  15 minutes to boot after installation of clean operating system is really strange.

• Satellite A30 hard drive upgrade

  Hello

  I would like to know if there is a panel that is easy to open to upgrade the hard drive?

  If not, then how to open Notepad in order to improve memory?

  MUCHAS gracias...

  Hi Omar,.

  Your hard drive is in the DVD-ROM on the bottom of your A30. To access it, you need to remove the DVD-ROM first by unscrewing the screws marked F5 on the bottom of your device. The DVD-ROM will then slide toward the front of your A30.

  With the DVD - ROM removed the hard drive will be visible fixed by four screws Phillips. Remove these screws and gently slide the hard drive toward the front of the laptop to free the pins is connecting.

  To upgrade the memeory that you will need to remove the small cover on the bottom of the laptop (held in by two small screws. We then see the RAM modules. The details on how to remove/replace the in your online user manual.

• L50-B-11J satellite does not recognize the HARD drive connected by USB 3.0

  Hello

  I recently bought a new laptop and install a new legal copy of windows pro 8.1.

  The problem that arises is actually a USB 3.0 port.
  Also, I have a drive external hard support standard USB 2.0 and 3.0.

  When I plug-in the hard drive into a USB 2.0 or any USB 3.0 port (two port supports USB 3.0 is disabled in the BIOS) fine, hard drive is recognized and I can access.

  But, when I plug-in the hard disk into a USB 3.0 port (two port supports USB 3.0 is active in the BIOS) Windows does not recognize it and I can't access it.

  The hard disk led flashes, so it has the power, but does not appear in the devices or Device Manager.
  My opinion is that the problem may be with the drivers for USB, but Toshiba is supported for driver for USB 3.0 for Windows 8.1.

  Then can someone suggest me what to do?

  Laptop: Satellite L50-B-11J
  USB ports: 1xUSB 2.0 port, 2xUSB 3.0 port
  Operating system: Windows Pro 8.1
  USB 3.0 driver: Intel (r) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Control - 0100 (Microsoft)
  External hard drive: support USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 standard

  Intel USB 3.0 driver is part of the 8.1 Windows System... This is not supplied by Toshiba.

  Windows 7 contains no such USB 3.0 driver and so you can download driver Intel USB 3.0 page of the Toshiba driver as well as the Intel download site.

  By the way: try to disable the functionality of sleep & Charge and check how the HARD drive would work.

• I copy / paste a file from a hard drive to a usb port and now I lost the USB I get the hard drive?

  I move a file from a hard drive to a usb port and now I lost the USB I get the hard drive

  "Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
  also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
  sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
  the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
  the unrecoverable file.

  So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
  Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
  downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
  example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
  be very poor now.

  But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
  using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
  already. Download an undelete program (and here's one:)
  http://www3.TELUS.NET/mikebike/restoration.html but there are several
  others to choose from; Do a search) on a friend's computer (do not
  it on yours because that would overwrite the files you want
  Undelete) and bring it to you on a CD or thumb drive to try.

  If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
  a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
  expensive and may or may not work in your case.

• When I plug my portable hard drive to the usb port it does not read and display the contents...

  When I plug my portable hard drive to the usb port it does not read and display the contents...

  Hi deaza,.

  Ø Have you connected the USB hard drive to the computer directly or you have used an external USB hub to connect?

  O trying to connect to another USB port to check if it works?

  O the hardrive shows in windows of the computer when you connect it?

  Method 1:
  If you have installed security software, I suggest you to temporarily disable the security software and connect the USB and check to see if the same problem happens. Make sure that you enable the security software after checking.

  Alternatively, you can try to plug the USB key into a different USB port and check if it helps.

  Method 2:
  I suggest trying to launch hardware and troubleshooting of devices and check to see if it helps, here is the link:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/What-to-do-when-a-device-isn ' t-installed-correctly

  Method 3:
  If this does not help, then follow these steps:

  (a) remove all your USB devices. Use the safely remove the feature to turn them off.

  (b) open Device Manager and navigate to the section for USB. Uninstall all USB drives. There should be one for each USB port, and then restart.

  To open Device Manager, go to the link below and follow the steps:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-Device-Manager

  (c) Windows should re - find all of the devices. If it is not the case, note the error message and let us know.

  You can also navigate to the link below and follow the steps to install the USB device.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/install-a-USB-device

  I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

• Windows 7 and bios sees not the hard drive, but when I connect the hard drive to the USB with an adapter, I see directories and files

  Please, I need pc

  Original title: windows 7 and bios does not see the hard drive. but when I connect the hard drive to the USB with an adapter, I see directories and files... Ive a hp Pavilion, what to do?

  Check the BIOS for hard drive setting.

  Make sure that you do not connect the drive to a SATA/RAID port.

  Old IDE drives - check the jumper on the drive (use "Cable Select" as a starting point), the BIOS must also be set in legacy/compatibility/IDE mode. Note: If you currently use the AHCI mode, then switch to IDE mode may cause Windows to boot.

• 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.

  E-mail: [[email protected]]

  > My question is why do we seem to remove the disc and see 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.

• C50 - D satellite - external hard drive is not recognized

  Just Satellite C50 D but are unable to read or recognize my LaCie hard drive.
  As it has all the data from my old computer, it is rather important. Can someone provide help and advice on the way to a) the disc or b) transfer all data in the memory of the laptop

  Thank you very much
  A  :-)

  Hello

  The laptop supports 1 USB 3.0 port and 2 USB 2.0 ports.
  I recommend you connect the external HARD drive to each port (USB 2.0) and USB3.0 just to check if it is not a compatibility problem. But generally, it shouldn't be a big problem to connect a USB 2.0 device to a USB 3.0 external.

  However, it could also be that this external HARD drive needs more than usual 500mA power supplied by a USB 2.0 port. In this case, you must use a USB cable to Y to connect the HARD drive to two USB ports.

• SP A10 and USB controller drivers

  I have a satellite pro A10 and cannot find the driver for the USB controller that is no longer available in toshiba online downloads. How can I get the driver that is not provided in the driver CD?

  Hello

  "normally you don't need a USB driver. The USB driver is part of XP and is installed by it! If it does not, you can uninstall the USB port in the Device Manager and the operating system reinstall the next time you start upward!

• 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.

• Hard drive failed and I lost my product key?

  Hi guys,.
  
  So my friends hard drive failed and unfortunetly he lost everything.
  
  I replaced the broken hard drive for him and reinstalled Windows 10. However when I went to check if the OS has been activated, it showed as not been activated? I thought the machines after that Windows 8 had their licance saved in the BIOS, so we do not have this problem?
  
  Also there is no sticker on the back or under the battery that contains the product key for Windows.
  
  I also talked to Microsoft, but they were uable to help.
  
  Any help is appreciated!
  
  Thank you.

  It's a HP Pavilion 15-p264na. It came with Windows preinstalled as an OEM licance Home 8.1. It was then upgraded to Windows 10 at a later date using the free update successfully.

  Then the second option mentioned above. Didn't it actually triggered successfully after 10 win upgraded?

  If so, you should be able to activate just fine without problems, IF you use the same edition of Windows. You write it housed 8.1 - you now install Win 10 Home? You mentioned 10 Pro down...

  So I guess I'll with your third option and using the recovery media?
  
  I have 2 HP drives here for Windows 10 Pro for two different HP devices. I think these are the recovery CD, it says that they cotain the client software, if that is correct? Can I use these discs Pro on a BONE at home? Or that I'd be better by following the links you provided?

  Laughing out loud. I'm sorry. I am afraid that you cannot mix just DVD / CD / etc - they are for a specific model for the specific version of Win / edition. You cannot use a recovery media for HP computer to another - it will simply not work 99% of the time. You cannot mix editions of Windows (the House is for Home, Pro goes to Pro).  You want the recovery media for this unit, you need to follow the links.

  However, IF you have enabled the upgrade of Windows 10 post fine, you can simply download Win 10 ISO from here:

  > > https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10/

  Download the tool, it will download an ISO and burn it to a DVD or write on a USB key. Follow the on-screen instructions, skip entered the key and move on. After installation, Windows 10 HOME should activate fine using digital entitlement if 8.1 Home Win allowed initially.

  I would like to know how this goes for you.

• 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 - 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?

  Hello

  Have you tried to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk? Normally with this record everything should work fine because it s pre-tested and specifically designed for your laptop.
  Check this box!

  In the worst cases, your HARD drive is faulty and you need a new. The HARD drive seems to have random failures.

  In the worst case the BIOS won't recognize HARD drive...
