• Satellite A300 - how to use two hard disks?

  My Satellite A300 came with two 200 GB hard drives (drives C and D). What is the best way to use the D drive? Now I have nothing about it. If drive C fills the computer automatically switches the D drive?

  A basic question, I know, but the manual provides no information on this subject.

  Hey Dearborn,

  > If drive C fills the computer automatically switches the D drive?
  No, D: drive will not be filled automatically.
  When installing the program, you will be asked which drive they will be installed. So you can choose between C: and D: drive.

  In general there are no rules the use of two hard disks. You can do what you want.
  In my opinion the best is if you install all the programs on C: drive (first HARD drive) and save your private files such as photos, videos, documents, etc. on drive D: (second HARD drive). Its advantage is that if you need to reinstall Windows at all times, these files on the second HARD drive will not be deleted. ;)

• Satellite A300 - how to use the recovery with external DVD drive disc?

  Hello

  I bought a toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 d

  FTM the tsscorp drive that is installed in the camera no longer works (does not detect any type of media what so ever). ) need to recover the laptop, so I used a USB DVD drive to boot from the restore disc, but after that the charges of recovery console it says waiting for media in the f: drive, which is the tsscorp drive although I used an external drive to load the disc.

  What files should I edit to make it to load from the drive externally and if this isn't the solution, what do I do?

  Hey Buddy,

  Unfortunately I think that it of not possible to use the recovery with external CD/DVD drive disc. Therefore, place the internal for use the recovery disc.
  You can get a new drive to an authorized service provider.

  But if the original OS from Toshiba is installed, you can use the function of disk recovery HARD reinstall Windows as well. Go to the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer :)

• Re: Satellite A300 - how can I make the webcam work on Win7

  And yet, I get the message after each installation/reboot of the: "the camara web esta disabled o ha Fall.» "Por favor, it check las web camara su configs", which would result in something like "the webcam is disabled or it has failed. Please check the configuration of your webcam. I've been browsing the forum for related issues, but I have not found any solution :(

  Thanks in advance,

  Ozma.

• 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). Now, my problem is I want to reset my phone. I have the recovery disks, and the folder HDDRecovery D: but my computer cannot read.

  What can I do? I tried a lot of things... How can I reboot my computer to factory settings?

  Hope you can help me,

  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?

• Satellite A300 - how to start HARD drive recovery after own OS insatallation

  Hi guys.

  I have a question.
  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300, which came with Windows Vista.
  Normally I have the recovery with the normally pre-installed utility partition.
  After that I formatted the system partition, I installed a clean and fresh Windows 7 copy.

  My question is this.
  Since the recovery partition does not get soiled with, is there not a way to install the disk recovery utility hard back in recovery of Windows of F8 before the boot options?

  Please don't tell me that I need to have the recovery disk.
  I already did, I just want to find a solution because it is not that hard for someone who accidentally formatted the system partition and had not created the disks, but the recovery partition. My guess is to do some modifications in the files of the Windows recovery environment that are launched when you use the option to repair my computer at startup, because normally, HARD drive recovery utility appears as one of its tools-options.

  The problem is that I don't have to where these files are, maybe (C:\boot?)
  Currently, I am trying to see if a facility upgrade of windows 7 on windows vista will keep options for hard drive recovery then maybe I will find what it takes.

  All suggestions are welcome!
  Thank you for your time.

  OK, just a hint more, I found what is happening with the recovery environment, and which must be replaced to include more tools...
  This article was really helpful:

• Satellite M70: How o use Atheros Wireless Lan Driver?

  Hello
  Since I bought my Satellite M70, I had the same problems described by many on the forum and to keep band from b instead of g and the ability of its 54 Mbit connection.

  I updated the intel lan driver and I am now using intel Pro/set utility driver.
  Last week, I got a message from toshiba for download the latest Atheros driver which is supposed to improve connectivity.

  The problem is that to happen once I installed Atheros driver nothing: there is nothing that I can do with the atheros utility, and I can still only go from Intel or Windows to manage the wireless card.

  Does anyone have a good idea on how to use the atheros driver?
  Thanks for your help

  Hi, Jean Paul

  I never had any message of the Toshiba who advise me to update all drivers.
  However, I don't know what your laptop is the WLan card but you can't use an Atheros driver on the Intel WLan card for example.
  If the Intel WLan card has been installed on your laptop, you must use the Intel Wlan drivers.
  Check in the Device Manager you what Wlan laptop using the card you.

  This model of laptop doesn't support BT (bluetooth).
  There is no BT module and so you will not be able to activate and to connect a mobile phone using the BT connection.

  The fastest solution would be if external use BT USB dongle.

  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
