Hello world

I have a big problem with Toshiba a300. Windows Vista is not starts.

Watch only the menu with 2 options: first "fix the system" - when I choose this option 10 seconds later I see messeage: click OK to turn off the computer.
When I choose the second option in my laptop restart every time.

I tried after turning on the computer, press F8, but all the option in this menu do NOT fix the problem.
I have no CV/DVD to my computer.
After the first time I don't burn DVD with backup.

I have really now how can I install system with recovery patriction. What softwere I need and how do I do it?

Thanks for help

Hello

Sat A300 and other new models of laptops are equipped with HARD drive recovery option. This HARD drive recovery should allow you to recover the laptop without the use of all disks.
In order to start the procedure for HARD drive recovery, you need to press F8. Then choose the first option called fix my computer. Then new window pops up and there you have to choose Toshiba HDD recovery. All that s.

But if this procedure don't work (no matter why) then you will need to use the Toshiba recovery disc. If you n t create a floppy disk for recovery of a hand and the laptop will not start, then you will have to buy a drive for recovery of this page:

    Hello

    > ive tried 4 different vista disks that work fine on other computers, as I have tried

    It looks like something wrong with the hard drive. I recommend you format the hard disk with programs like Partition magic, Disk Manager Arcoins. You should make a disk bootable cd and boot from it to format the hard drive before installing Vista. Furthermore, you have formatted partition during the installation of Vita? There is an option to format the partition selected during the installation of windows. You see, I met some users who tried to install windows without formatting the selected partition.

    Seems that there are problems with the files of GoBack.

    Try to boot in safe mode and remove the Norton System works from your laptop ;)
    If this does not help, you will need to recover the laptop with the recovery CD Toshiba delivered!

    Also I recommend to visit the Symantec support site and to check the solutions to the problem with the Norton System Works programs

  • Vista will not start! Black screen, no mouse, no cursor pointer. Startup Repair cannot repair. Details say 'wrong pass '. What is the correct syntax for pkgmgr to uninstall?

    Vista will not start!  Black screen, no mouse, no cursor pointer.  Startup Repair cannot repair.  Details say 'wrong pass '.  It looks like all the files are well intact on the disk.

    What is the correct for pkgmgr syntax when you try to uninstall an update by using a command prompt when starting Vista OS disk?  I entered the following in the "x:\Sources >" prompt:

    start /w pkgmgr/o: "C:\; /Up:Package_1_for_KB2840149~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~6.0.1.0 C:\Windows.

    When I run this command it ends quickly and when I run 'echo %errorlevel%' I get '5', which seems to mean 'access denied'.  How am I supposed to have access to remove the patch?  Am I missing something?  Perhaps a switch in the syntax to access?  Help, please.  Thank you.

    I tried both options that you recommended.  As initially stated, no boot option would produce something other than the black screen.  I tried to boot from a drive and restoring the system running, but she didn't, and when I tried to do it again the recovery console could not find restore points. ?.

    An update, the computer is now fixed.  Oddly enough, I ran recovery of starting a drive at least 8 times and each time I checked the details and he said: he ran chkdsk without error and return to the same cause "a patch is preventing windows to start.  I even ran chkdsk c: /f from a prompt command from the recovery disk and it found no errors.  That's when I posted the question above after trying to remove the patch in the manner described above.  After some time and frustration, I decided to run chkdsk /r c:.  It took awhile, but it found 1 bad sector, moved the data, the bad sector tag and finished.  Once I restarted from that, everything came and went very well.

    So, the original question remains, what was missing in the command to run pkgmgr/high: successfully.  And the new question exists as to why start Recovery claims run chkdsk if it does not, or he turns the version/f not the version/r the same as I did manually?  It would be good to know for the future.  Thank you!

  • "Error message: Verifing DMI pool Data data ', 'Boot from CD' and Vista will not start.

    Vista will not start. Yesterday I had a remote assist of a tech trade SPS who took several Java updates and installed the recommended Java version. Until I left work the day I closed my computer so that he could install the updates from Microsoft. After the updates were finished I he turned and left for the day. When I arrived this morning, I had was a black screen and 2 lines of text following: 'Verifing DMI pool data' and 'Boot from CD' and a cursor flashing beneath them. I downloaded and executed a Western Digital utility that showed no problems with the hard drive, put in on the installation disc repair service is no error. I did a system restore to a point since yesterday morning, and Vista still does not start. Any ideas or suggestions?

    Hi JohnHorky,

    Step 1:

    First check and make sure that all physical connections on the computer are correct.

    Step 2:

    Alternatively, you can try to run a Checkdisk and check.

    a. Insert the installation disc.

    b. restart your computer.

    c. click on the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

    d. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

    e. in the System Recovery Options menu, click command prompt

    f. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER

    Chkdsk /f /r X: (drive letter)

    Note: When you run the checkdisk, there are risks of data loss you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

    g. press y when you are prompted to check the drive the next time the system restarts.

    h. close all applications and restart the computer.

    Note: When you run the disk check, there are chances of losing data if you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

    Step 3:

    Check if the automatic hard drive in the BIOS (Basic Input/output System) is enabled and save settings and check if it works. If it doesn't, contact the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

    I also suggest that you install the latest update of the basic system of input/output (BIOS) on the computer by contacting the manufacturer of the computer and check if it helps.

    Important: Change to the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Re: Satellite L300-1AS will not start

    Hi all

    Now my L300 will not start not (windows (Vista).
    It shows a blue screen saying that windows has been shut down and to check the installation of new hardware or software.
    There is no new hardware or software. He suggested to disable the bios memory options (I don't know how to do this) and suggests to start in safe mode to remove or disable components.

    The laptop does NOT start in any mode not to mention safe mode, repair mode that brings back me to the blue screen as described.
    I bought a Toshiba Recovery disk (a single disc happened?) that begins its process then two locks of "select a language to move forward" or detects an error and request I have "press any key to continue' what I'm doing, it then displays X:\windows\system32 > with the cursor flashing at the end of > and does nothing more , its been like that for 5 hours now... I'm supposed to type something in or I am looking at a new hard drive?

    Suggestions for a greatly appreciated numpty (outside to let computers alone numpty you of course!)

    Thanks

    Hello

    Yes, the recovery disc's one disc it s DVD ;)

    Return to be issued;
    I think that it s material related since the recovery disk should work for sure.
    The blinking cursor can be related to a faulty memory or HARD drive.
    Both should be checked.

    You could remove a memory module and might try to power the device using a single memory module in a slot.
    Of course, the best would be a use of two new modules

    The HARD drive can be checked using a tool called Drive Fitness Test (it of free use google to find it)

  • Satellite A105-S4164 - will not start only white screen

    Hi all
    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A105-S4164 that will not start.

    I thought that maybe there is a problem with the battery. I took out the battery and then plugged the laptop to the power outlet, makes no difference. The blue lights in the front of the laptop, lights, but I hear no noise from the motherboard or the fan. The laptop is bought in July 2006 and it is out of warranty.
    All I see is a white screen.

    My guess is that the motherboard must be replaced. I have also had kept with Symantic anti-virus and windows updates XP before April 1, 2009.

    Thank you for your comments.

    Seyed

    You can see an image on an external monitor?

    Well, I think that in this case the laptop must be verified by the technician for laptop. You should contact an ASP and ask for help. It would be the best way because the technician can be sure what parts are defective.

  • Vista will not start. Verifying the integrity of system files and repair has no ErrorCode = 0 x 2 HELP PLEASE!

    ASUS PC, Windows Vist Home premium, all updates.

    Out of the blue, it will not start.  Access the start scrolling (the one just before logon) screen and it just stops.

    Twice I ran Vista check utility.  The first time, I chose to do the system restore to previous state.  Restarted.  Always off.  The second time, it took much longer and from what I can see.  All TESTS PASS, except one:

    Repair action: repair and checking of the filesystem Integrety

    Result: failed. Error code = 0 x 2

    Time required: 6206818ms

    I get no blue screen, I can't even any screen!

    I'm triying to repar because I have several costly software titles that link the authorization key code to a key hardware and software installation.  I don't know that I could reinstall if I get a code (randomly?) different generated software.

    I don't know about i-tunes and other content downloaded my wife has such as MP3 files and audio books.

    Thanks for any help!

    The test fails (SFC) checks for corruption in the files on your system.  If she can't even complete, she suggests the Vista all system needs to be re-installed - but you have already done this and you still have the problem.

    In fact, look like a hardware problem.  Here are some troubleshooting guidelines hardware that can help (but probably not for this question as what you really need, it is a replacement for test):http://elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Hardware_Tshoot.  Frankly, I think it's time to take the system to a repair facility of good reputation for the service computer (or to return to the manufacturer for repair - costs, schedule, guarantees and make a decision).  I don't know what hardware component.

    If you can, try to back up your data before you import it it because they will probably wipe the drive clean during the process. You can use Knoppix http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (perhaps done on another computer).  This should give you enough access to the system (if you do not have any other means) to backup your important data.  Otherwise, try slaving the drive to another system and access the data in this way.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Vista will not start after start or restart.

    Since last week, when I first start the computer, change user or log out or reboot, Vista does not start after the log in password stage (after accepting the password). I usually have to restart the computer twice so he could finally enter the Office of habit and I can work as usual.

    I tried to let the computer some time at this point to work through and start normally, but it does not work and I have to restart.

    I recently updated my anti-virus (BitDefender) for the 2010 edition.

    I don't know if is the recent update to Vista which is originally or not.

    Uninstall Bit Defender and see if that fixes things. Antivirus programs use low-level drivers which can sometimes cause problems. If the uninstallation of Bit Defender work, use a different antivirus. I recommend ESET NOD32 (commercial) or Avast free. If Bit Defender Uninstalling does not help, then you may experience hardware problems. Failing power supply or hard drive that often produces symptoms such as you describe.

    What you can try is to install Vista using disk HARD recovery option.
    How it works, you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    If it works all the data saved on the C partition will be deleted but the data saved on the D partition will always be there.

    > I was updating my BIOS on toshiba website and while he was installing the battery has been disconnected and when I turned on my computer laptop back I got was a black screen, the fans would start and thecd rom would turn

    I m afraid the BIOS update has no procedure and therefore the ROM chip has not updated as it should. This is the reason why the laptop can not start correctly.

    I think that it of necessary to reflash the ROM BIOS module Once again, but this can be done only using a procedure of BIOS of crisis.
    As far as I know this can be done only through ASP because there is no traditional BIOS version by download.

  • Satellite Pro A60 will not start up CD/DVD

    I have the above and it does not start from cd/dvd. I know that the cd/dvd is bootable and works well. I can boot from the floppy drive and access the cd/dvd without problem, but that dose not allow me to load windows XP. If this is not the drive or the cd/dvd. So what is the problem?

    Paul

    Hello

    How did you try to boot from the CD drive?
    Have you tried to press the C key immediately after starting the laptop?

    Alternatively, you can press F12. The start menu should appear and you should be able to choose the drive as a boot device.

    (6) it will continue like this for always (no activity except fan)

    After a few hard reboots can occasionally start, he's absolutely perfect job.
    Any ideas?

    Thank you very much!

    On this virtual path, it is not possible to say with certainty what the problem. For two weeks, I have similar problem on my A300. He won start t at all. Power LIGHT blinks two or three times and that's all that happens.

    At first, it happened only sporadically, but now there is no other reaction. In my view, this is power of electronic card.
    On your A300, it may be the same.
