• Re: Satellite A300 - fan does not work after installing Win7

  Hello.

  I did a new install of Win 7 pro 64-bit, and after it does not my fan, not at the start or in Windows. To check if it the fan itself was broken I re-installed Vista instead and the fan worked again!
  Installed new Win 7 but now it's silent :( I checked in the BIOS (latest version 1.80) but I couldn't find any option here. Am I missing a driver or something?

  My Satellite canned extinguishing because of this, so I would really appreciate help :)

  Best regards / Ocke

  Maybe a stupid question now, but have you tried to use the 32 bit version?

  You have also installed all the Toshiba drivers Toshiba value added package (includes the Toshiba power saver tool)?

  As far as I know on the second partition of HARD drive folder HDDRecovery is saved recovery image. When you start the installation of (F8 at startup) HARD disk recovery partition recovery image D will be installed on the C partition. In this case the D partition is not deleted. C just partition will be formatted before installation of recovery image begins.
  Just use F8 option and go fix my computer. Just follow the on-screen menu and choose the software factory default recovery option.
  > 2 If the disc is defective, how do I re - install supplied OS (vista) for a new HARD drive?
  After reading this question, I see you didn't read the document s user manuals. You need to create a recovery media (DVD recovery) and this recovery DVD you can use for recovery image installation if there is a problem with the HARD drive or you want to install original recovery image on the new HARD drive.
  3 > unrelated meanings, can I upgrade to Windows 7 (clean install) 32 or 64 bit version?
  Of course you can do it. Please visit the download page of Toshiba on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and check if all the drivers, tools and utilities are available here. Of course before doing this, create recovery DVDs.

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Satellite A300 - how to recover the operating system without a recovery disk?

  First of all, sorry for my very bad English.

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300, PC 9 months ago. I had problems with a virus and result is that despite clean-up and disinfection, the computer is still infected and I refused access to the hard drives and regedit.

  I thought restoring the operating system factory preinstaled (hopefully, this is the solution and not the formatting) and Barrie told me to check out http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

  I did it, but the PC it's imposible because there is no files. I don't have a rescue CD (if newbee).

  What can I do?

  Hello

  Usually the A300 (European series) has been equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would be you allows to recover the laptop using the files on the HARD drive. But if this is not possible while something went wrong with the maybe HDD it s due to the infection by the virus

  In any case if you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive you need the recovery disc.
  You can order it as suggested by resident on the other hand, you can use the MS Windows Vista disk and can download driver Toshiba page.

• How to reinstall Vista after installing Linux?

  Once tired of these multiple Vista Home crashes that I decided to install Linux (OpenSuse). Although a capable OS, I need some windows software and want to restore Vista on this machine. I have the system restore partition, but when I try to run it, it gives me an error. Apparently Windows no longer recognizes the MBR as it has been recreated by GRUB.

  I don't have a Windows Installer disk, just the installation of system restore (F11).

  Is there a bootable utility I can get to delete the Linux partitions, recreate the C: drive * and * difficulty the MBR? After that, I think I can use the system restore.

  Any advice greatly appreciated.

  How can I return my original vista walk now?

  I tried f12, but it does not work nothing when I click on HARD drive

  Hello

  It's not possible companion
  The recovery partition would not help you if you are not able to access this wile, start the laptop computer.
  Usually, you should choose F8 and then fix my computer.
  This should lead you to the Toshiba HDD Recovery option but if you will not be able to get this option, then you would not be able to recover the laptop using the HARD disk partition.

  In this case, you will need to use the recovery disk

  If you don t have this disc, then you must order this reading some threads here in the forum.

• How to partition Satellite A300 - 21 H with Vista?

  Hello
  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 - 21 H with Vista and dual you want to boot with ubuntu linux. At present, there are three partitions, recovery vista 1.5 GB, 150 GB C and 150 GB E (with recovery of HARD drive inside). My ubuntu, I would like to partitions / and / Home (about 150 GB). Should I delete the partition E? I have my recovery DVD's...

  What is the best approach, I think that linux is only 4 partitions.

  > Should I delete the partition E?
  If you created the recovery DVDs, you can remove HDDRecovery and use the second partition for Linux. When you want to install once again just use recovery media created Vista.

  If you change the structure of the partition, no doubt, you will not be able to use saved image in this folder.

• Satellite A300 - how to reset to factory settings?

  Hello everyone,

  first of all, sorry for my English, it is not my native language and I do a lot of mistakes, I hope you can understand me correctly.

  My problem is that I have a toshiba Satellite A300 provided with Windows Vista op time after I have bought I installed windows 7 on it (you know, so new that I have to try).

  Best regards.

  Hi biguri,.

  After the installation of another operating system, you will need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. That means Vista preloaded with all the drivers and tools you get back if you boot from the recovery disc and follow the on-screen instructions.

  But don't forget to make a backup of the important files like photos, videos, etc., because the recovery disk will wipe the entire HARD disk.

  You have problems with the recovery disk?
