• Satellite P100 - cannot boot from recovery CD

  Hello

  I'm trying to reset my Satellite P100.
  She runs slowly and I thought that a clean spring was in order.

  I just received in the mail today my recovery disk (then found my original one!).
  Problem I have is that no matter what I do, I can't do the boot cd.

  No matter what buttons I push on I get or anything and one reboots windows or black screen.
  I tried F12, F1, F2, C, f *, ESC, I changed bios priority support via the configuration utility of the material in the Panel to load the cd first, his pirouettes for awhile and just does nothing.

  Whatever i can't load anything other that windows or a blank black screen, cant even get into safe mode.

  Any help please?

  Hello

  It seems that the player is unable to boot from the recovery CD and the switch to boot from LAN.
  The error PXE - E61 message because the LAN cable was not connected and the laptop is not able to find a source of network boot

  I think you should check the recovery CD and perhaps you will need a new

• Satellite M45: Cannot boot from the CD-ROM or HARD drive

  I get the following messages...

  WHEN BOOTING FROM HDD: "Invalid partition table".

  At the START of the CD: "No Bootable CD in ATAPI CD-ROM.
  By so, even though I have the recovery CD and the computer can not read them.

  I tried to change the order of boot without result. Created a bootable CD Bart, who works in my other computer, but not in this laptop. Are there special drivers, I need for this CD?
  I'm out on this one.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think that your partition on the HARD disk is damaged and so you cannot boot from the HARD drive.
  In this case, the HARD drive must be formatted completely and then you could try to install the OS.

  It seems also that your drive cannot recognize the CD bootable (WinXP?) and, therefore, it of not possible to boot from the drive.
  Well, it really stupid s :_| situation really stupid!

  However, did you try to boot from another CD? For example Microsoft Windows original CD?
  If not I recommend you to do and eventually the reader will be able to read the CD.
  If this isn't the case, so I think that the reader must be checked. Possibly it also corrupted s.

• cannot boot from Recovery HD

  I asked a question before, but my description was not detailed enough. As part of an attempt to deal with the issues described below, I discovered that I couldn't boot from the HD Recovery. If I have to do a clean reinstall of the operating system, I don't want to take the risk by using fksk. Here are the details

  Slow performance

  (1) the starting time: 3 min (of gong at the end of the progress bar)

  (2) departure time for applications 1.5 to 4 min

  (a) Mathematica 01:22, 01:40, iTunes 01:48, Firefox mail, 03:57

  Disk utility is no problem to start normal b at startup

  Reset SMC improves the start time for applications, but not for the start

  Remaining problems

  (1) tent to boot from Recovery HD failed.

  Maintain command-R on startup until the Apple icon (2 min) after additional 2 min gong sounded and the computer started normally.

  (2) Once restarted, SystemProfile wouldn't start properly. Reported missing components. This has been fixed by several reboots of the system profile.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

• Satellite M40 - cannot boot from the recovery cd after format HARD drive

  Hello

  After my Satellite M40 - 133 being affected by the virus of security internet I had to wipe my hard drive. The virus wouldn't let me do anything, boot without failure or system restore. I wiped the disk and it still wouldn't load up. That's why I had to do a full erase of the disk including the hidden partition.

  After doing his now do not let my boot from the CD of restoration as it says invalid partition as his search for files that must be on the hidden partition. What can I do to get it started. I'm not bothered about to recover anything on the disc. If I remove the hard drive and put the recovery cd in, it excludes the disc and begins to start until he fails to see the hard drive.

  Outwardly I can link the drive to another pc and he sees it as a storage device so I'm glad that there is nothing wrong with the hard ware - help please

  Hello

  Can you see the HARD drive with all the details in the BIOS?
  If this isn't the case, then this means that the HARD drive is faulty or not fully compatible.
  If you can see the HARD drive in the BIOS, then this means that the HARD drive is compatible.

  But this should not affect booting from a bootable CD.
  Even if the HD would not be recognized in the BIOS, you should be able to boot from the CD. For example a live Linux CD has not only any disk HARD because the BONE would not be installed on the HARD drive, but it loads into RAM.

  The question is; Why you are unable to boot from any CD?
  Maybe the discs are scratched or the CD/DVD drive cannot read the disc more because of problems of laser lens
  If possible, try to copy/burn the Windows CD using another computer, and then try to start using the copied disc.

• Satellite A10: Cannot boot from the recovery CD after the replacement of the motherboard

  Heres one in your brain is going...

  I recently started a format hard drive via the normal recovery CD, but it never finished as long as the power cut.

  Not to worry I thought, I kept all my data and a new motherboard was on order.

  The fitting of the new Council, I tried to boot from the recovery disc and all I get is 'non-system disk '.

  Then I replaced the HARD drive with a former to check the functionality of the Cd. The old disks (I tried two) both still booted from the cd and their HDs has worked fine once in windows.

  However...

  When I try to start any of these 'good' HDs from the cd nothing happens, nada zilch. In fact they will not start even to a 'Beginner PC' recovery disk either, so it's not the Toshy recovery disk.

  Another weird thing is when I go into the bios by pressing ESC the power upward and then F1 and try to change the boot sequence and press end to exit and save, nothing happens.

  If the CD is not defective because it is recognized in windows
  The recovery disks may not be at fault because the other disks also fail to start.

  This is not a drive problem hard as other HDs start normally (but not Cd)

  This could be a fault on the new motherboard, perhaps a problem with bios, or the sequence of events suggests something else?

  Any suggestions would be welcome

  Hello

  Long story. In my opinion you should write is a little shorter but with more useful information.
  I am interested in one thing: have you got a new mainboard or used one?

  To be honest, I'm also confused with the recovery disc you are using. The history is confusing.

  > so this isn't the Toshy recovery disk.
  Can you please tell us what kind of recovery CD are you using exactly?

• Satellite C660-cannot boot from ODD

  Hi all

  hope someone can help me with this.

  I'm trying to put a new hard drive in a C660 but can't the 'boot from cd' option no matter what I do.

  If I press F2, I get the windows boot manager with an option.
  Windows 7

  If I go to F8, I get the advanced boot options.
  SafeMode ect. No CD option

  F12 takes me to Windows error with 2 options recovery
  Start repair installation (recommended)
  Start windows normally

  Also tried 0 on power, which gives just the F2 and F12 options.

  Can someone tell me how to boot from the cd?

  Thank you very much

  * @ Said *.
  I assume you mean the flashing cursor in the upper left corner. Is this OK
  The blinking cursor indicates mostly a drive HARD or RAM problem/failure.
  Check in the BIOS if your HARD drive is recognized correctly.

  In addition, you can use some diagnostic tools such as Windows Drive Fitness Test (WinDFT) and DFT (Drive Fitness Test)
  In case the HARD disk is OK, I would recommend RAM

• Equium L40 - cannot boot from recovery CD

  Help, please

  Have you tried changing the boot order in BIOS on a CD/DVD first and then boot from the CD?
  There is also another possibility for the start of the STRANGE.
  You can press the C key immediately after the laptop is turned on. This would allow booting from the CURIOUS reader.

  But I have a few questions;
  Have you tried to boot from different bootable CD s like Win XP, Linux, etc. ? Is this possible?
  Perhaps disk failure?

  I think that this could the main reason why the notebook missing CD.

  What do you think?

  Hey Buddy,

  Usually, there is nothing of what you can do to get rid of this.

  I put t know which model of laptop you have, but I would like to contact an authorized service provider and explain the situation. Guys can you help to swap the drive. :)

• Satellite L - cannot boot from disc of Windows 7 32 bit

  When trying to install the 32-bit version of Windows 7 from the cd/dvd that came with my computer noting happens.
  I inserted the cd and restart the computer, but the installation does not start.

  The computer is running windows 7 64 bit I want to change to 32 bit

  Hello

  You can boot from another drive? Maybe that Windows 7 is noisy and so it can t be read correctly.
  Check this box!

  If you want to downgrade from 64 bit to 32 bit you do a fresh install. This means that you need to clean your current Windows partition so backup all files first!

• Satellite L870D - cannot boot from CD or USB

  This is my new laptop Satellite L870D of girlfriends, I'm trying to back up the hard disk with Paragon Image Backup for Windows 8. I created a bootable CD and a version of the the company Paragon software USB drive but I can't start either on this laptop. Both times I cause a message ' media check: Fail.

  However, Paragon bootable CD and USB drive boots fine on another system. And the optical drive on the L870D Satellite works very well in Windows 8.
  I also checked the BIOS for boot speed setting which is set to Normal.

  What Miss me?
  TIA.

  No, the UEFI BIOS is created to win 8 and if you need to use the other system like Win 7 or a Linux distribution, you will need to disable UEFI BIOS and secure boot.
