Satellite A300 does not work

My laptop broke down. When I turn on the laptop I get a screen black ask me to select either Startup Repair (does not work) or start Windows normally (does not work).

I am then presented with the System Recovery Options (Startup Repair, System Restore, restore pc windows completely, command prompt, windows memory diagnostic tool, toshiba Recovery Wizard). No matter which option to choose, nothing works. I tried the Recovery Wizard, but he advises that I will lose all data.

I can't afford to lose all my data because it will mean I lose as itunes and I won't be able to deauthorise computer.

I also have a lot of photos and other important information.

I have no backup discs (they were not provided when I bought the laptop).

Hoping someone can help as I really need retriend my all.

Help!

> I have no backup discs (they were not provided when I bought the laptop).
The recovery disc are not provided, because you create the recovery disks using the preinstalled software called creator of Toshiba drive back (I guess this is mentioned in the user manual)

But it is the same procedure of recovery provided by Toshiba Wizard of recovery you can find, press F8.
Both procedures (HARD disk or recovery disk recovery) would format the HARD drive.

I think you should start Notepad using the Live CD. You can use Linux Live CD WinPE or (BartPE).
Google for it

These CD would boot a Windows or Linux environment and will have access to the files on the HARD drive.
Then you could safe files on external media and then you can install Windows using HARD drive recovery.

  • Satellite A300 does not Logitech Bluetooth receiver.

    Hello

    My problem is that I don't know exactly what the problem...
    I have a laptop of 1MS Satellite A300 does not have built-in Bluetooth

    I have a bluetooth (MX5000 series) Logitech mouse that I installed for Windows Vista (I downloaded the latest driver of Logitech's official website)
    The Logitech software for bluetotth is called set point and the Assembly says I can connect other bluetooth devices through the bluetooth mouse receiver (like a cell phone, for example).

    The mouse works perfectly well, the problem starts when I try to connect my cell phone to the laptop (with the Nokia PC Suite software). I get a message that says that there is no bluetooth hardware installed. I tried to look in the bluetooth configuration control panel, but it isn't here. I can't find a folder or a tool that allows me to set up bluetooth.

    I would like to know what is the problem, why my laptop does not recognize the bluetooth receiver.
    I used to have installed on another laptop with Windows XP and it used to work without any problems.

    I tried the receiver in all the USB ports on the laptop with no result.

    Hi guys

    I can say with certainty that the Satellite A300-1 ms was not was equipped with the internal BT module and so the laptop does not recognize the Bluetooth receiver
    If you want to connect to the laptop to the external BT device then you need a BT USB key for example.

  • Satellite M70 does not work properly with external monitors

    Hello

    My Satellite M70 has problems with a couple of monitors and projectors.

    When I connect to another manufacturer (model AL1721) monitor, the screen remains black, if I connect to another monitor manufacturers (model AL1716) everything works fine.
    If I connect a projector there also is a black screen.

    At first everything worked fine, I had a monitor AL1721 who worked, and 1 day it no longer works. I reinstalled windows, updated video card drivers, but it still does not work.
    anyone an idea why?

    Hello

    How do you connect the monitors and the projector? with an analog or a digital (with adapter) cable to the screen?

    Another question: when you connect your AL1721/Beamer and turn on the machine, you can see the Toshiba logo or something else. Is the error just that occur in windows or the "DOS" screen, too?

    BTW. have you reinstalled with recovery or separated from an original disc of Microsoft windows and the drivers you have installed?

  • My Satellite touchpad does not work

    Could you please tell what should I do now?

    Thank you
    Concerning

    Mehdi

    Hello

    The touchpad is probably just disabled and so he doesn t work

    Have you tried FN + F9 key combination? With this combination of keys you can enable/disable the touchpad, so I would like to test this.

    If this is not the case, try to reinstall the driver for the touchpad. You can download it from the Web from Toshiba site :)

    Try to remove the battery for a while. After plug in the battery try to start the device without the AC adapter.
    Also, try to start the laptop without battery with the AC adapter / CC.
    If the procedures don't work so I guess there is something wrong with the power supply electronics. In this case, the best way is to ask the service to help.

    The backslash on my P10 804 button does not work, its certainly not a question of OS. I think it may have something to do with the bios or the firmware of the keyboard on the machine?

    Y at - it a master keyboard / known firmware issue?

    Kind regards

    What do you mean by not work?
    Do you have strange signs or anything?
    Maybe you have the wrong keyboard language settings or bar button jams backslash or the key is dead.

  • Console buttons multimedia Toshiba Satellite A300 do not work

    I used the Toshiba recovery disc, and it does not work.

    Cheers, Levi

    Hi Levi

    Have you tried to reinstall the Toshiba value added Package? This package controls the multimedia keys and also the lighting of these buttons.
    Check the Toshiba site for an update!

    In addition, lighting can be enabled or disabled in the BIOS. Make sure that this option is set to enabled.

    Last but not the least the BIOS update is worth a try! ;)

  • L830 satellite - Touchpad does not work

    Hello

    I have a 16W L830 I bought less than a month ago. Meanwhile, I had a catalog of problems (it crashes 3 - 4 times a day; it took 2 days to install MS Office; etc.).

    For now I'll stick to the more immediately pressing problem: the touchpad stopped working - again. This happened twice before; both times I did a restore of the system for the next day, and that solved the problem.

    Today, however, the restoration of the system did nothing to help with the problem of touch pad. I also tried to repair/upgrade to update driver, but my device manager make sure the driver is up to date and works very well. I tried to re - download the driver from Synaptics site and restart my computer, but it does not work either. It is on the edge of my technical knowledge, so now I'm stumped.

    As you can probably hear I'm pretty fed up with the machine in general and seriously plans to return. It would be good to set the touchpad, at least, I can use it for the next two days, until I have the chance to take in the store.

    Any help you can give would be really appreciated! Thank you
    C

    Hello

    Before the recovery of the laptop, check if the touchpad isn't disabled.
    This should be verified by using the function Fn + F5 (or only F5) button
    In addition you should go to BIOS (F2) and must check if the pointing device is enabled (BIOS-> Advanced-> system-> pointing device Configuration)

    In the case where it would not help, recover the laptop

  • 1670 CDS satellite - modem does not work on Windows 2000

    Hi-

    I removed the Toshiba W98SE and installed Win 2000 (new installation). I managed to put it on the audio driver using downloads on your website (and it works).

    I do a test on the dial installation upward and that you have installed the modem also since your website (Conexant Soft K56 Data, Fax PCI Modem). This is intended for W98SE but microsoft message is

    The port looks ok. Please advise - is it the right driver?

    Thank you.

    A Windows 98 driver does not work on Windows 2000. Therefore, you need a new driver for Windows 2000.

    I have checked the Toshiba site but your model no available Windows 2000 driver exists.
    I think you have to search the site of the factory of the modem. Maybe you can find a driver or another portable model that has the same modem.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A300 does not start

    Hello forum members

    I had a lot of problems with my Toshiba Satellite A300 for quite awhile. I had found the solution to one of the problems through this forum, but now the problem I am facing. I can t find the solution to the problem.

    When I press the power on button, the laptop just blinks (fan runs then shuts down, as he gets power pulse. sign satellite on the left side of the laptop flashes and the laptop stops, then the laptop itself tries to start, but this goes on and for a long time.) It finally boots (not really specific time when it starts up, sometimes after an hour, 2 hours or all day) and I can use. I tried to put the laptop in hibernate mood/sleep but no use, whenever I press the power on button, I face the same problem. Once it starts, it doesn t stop and works very well.

    I can't really understand what is the problem? Your answers are really appreciated. I really have a hard time with this laptop.

  • Why my PSAG0A - 02100Q Satellite A300 does not install audio drivers?

    I unsuccessfully downloaded (several times) the audio drivers from Toshiba downloads to fix a no audio device installed on a laptop Satellite A300 of operation Vista x 32. Previously it was solid. Also had computer built to solve the problem, but it did not work. Can someone help please.

    Hello

    I think you tried a bad driver.
    Some of the A300 series supports a Conexant audio chip and some of these units are equipped with a Realtek audio chip to use the right driver for a sound card.

    Satellite A300 PSAG0A - 02100Q supports a chip (onboard) Realtek ALC268 sound and you have the Realtek HD audio driver.
