• Satellite L30: CD player does not work with the new HARD drive

  Hello

  Just bought a new drive to HARD drive of 250 GB to transform my L30-115 has a home server.

  My problem is when both the new HARD disk drive DVD/CD-RW drive of origin are inserted into L30, the computer crashes and I can not even get into the BIOS (I have the latest edition).

  However, when I disconnect the CD player, system boots fine in a system of operating "plain" (command-line only) - BIOS recognizes very well and everything is fine. Idem: as I disconnect the HARD drive and connect the CD player, I am able to work (for example with a live linux system).

  The question is: * how to install a Windows operating system to a new HARD disk drive *? There is no option to boot from USB. What else can we do? I'm not going to invest more money into this old machine. I would like to install the Windows Home Server in there. There is no need to use the CD player later (all other operations will be performed by the network).

  Person not answering, so I'll do it.

  I was able to boot from USB external floppy drive, so the solution is to boot from external CD drive and install the system.

  It is not an exact solution, because the internal optical drive must be removed, so I'm looking forward to see updates to the BIOS level or other solutions for Toshiba.

• Satellite A100-225 keeps freezing and crashing with the new HARD drive

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite A100-225 with a 100 GB SATA Hitachi drive I int it that recently started showing bad sectors. Then I bought a Hitachi 320 GB SATA II drive to replace it. I tried the drive and it was recognized right away, so I didn't need to change the SATA speed. I ran the restore a disk installed newest. The problem I have is that the computer keeps freezing and crashing with the new drive. It takes a lot of time to load up when turned on and there is a noticeable to untermittant delay when you drag the cards around solo.

  I tried to run the Hitachi drive test and it comes back fine. I also tried to turn the SATA speed of the drive down from 300 to 150 via the firmware, and although I saw a slight improvement, it is still not right.

  I talked to Hitachi and they say that he could not be 100% compatible, so the problems. Someone at - it else sucessfully set up a replacement for this notebook drive and if so what make and model. Has anyone else had simular problems?

  Thank you

  Years ago, I've updated yet more former Satellite M70 with SATA HDD (270 GB if I m remembering well) and everything was fine.
  In my view upgrade with SATA HDD normal shouldn't be a problem. Do not SATA II because it will not work faster.

  I can't say for sure, but there must be a compatibility problem.

  Let's see if someone else had better luck with the upgrade of the disk on the Satellite A100.

  Have you checked this forum with advanced search option? Maybe you can find some old NET on upgrade the HDD on A100.

  When I bought the new device, it was loaded with windows 8 but a few days before my hard drive has been corrupted and replaced it with the new hard drive but could not get the real Windows back 8.

  Please help me to get my windows genuine 8 back so I could get additional updates downloaded.

  Hello Vishal,

  Welcome to the Microsoft community. I appreciate your efforts to resolve the issue. I will certainly help you with the problem you are experiencing.

  If you purchased a computer with installed OEM Windows 8 on it, there could be a sticker on the Tower, or in the back (in the case of a laptop) with the product key to this topic. If there is no sticker, he can be preinstalled on your system BIOS.

• Recovery disks do not work with the new hard drive?

  I have a laptop HP (pavilion dv7-1245dx) and the hard drive is dead. I had never gotten to burn my recovery disks, so I ordered new ones from HP. When I installed the new hard drive and popped in the disk to reinstall the operating system, it gave me the error message:

  "This PC is not supported by the system recovery discs. You can continue to recover this system with these discs. »

  Error code: 0100-30 FC-3602-3603

  The original hard drive was a Hitachi, 320 GB SATA

  Any assistance anyone can give would be great. :]

  EDIT: Trying to recover a Vista operating system

  For anyone who has the same problem, I found a solution. I cloned the original hard drive using the Clonezilla fallback option. After using Clonezilla to image on the new hard disk, the partition which held that most of the data of the laptop is not mountable, however the partition containing the restore partition was a perfect copy. I turned on the computer, hit escape to access the menu (for a list of options such as boot order, etc, which included an option for recovery), and then choose recovery option. While the recovery discs, I received from HP refused to work with the new hard drive, the Vista restored cloned recovery partition without flaw.

• Satellite C650 - reinstall with the new hard drive

  Hello

  The hard drive in my C650 just died so I put in a replacement, and the problem I have is that I never create a recovery disc for my laptop.

  I tried to use the windows disk 7 I got with my desktop, but when I boot it I get the error ' A required CD/DVD drive driver is missing. If you have a flash driver diskette drive, CD, DVD or USB, please insert now. ".

The installation detects these drivers "ICH9" on my USB, but after loading them, I always get an error ' no new deices could be found. Make sure that the driver files are correct and located on the driver installation media. ».

  I checked the bios and the new hard drive is detected without a doubt.
  Is there anything else I can do, short of ordering toshiba recovery disks?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  The message
  > ' Required the reader driver CD/DVD is missing. If you have a flash driver diskette drive, CD, DVD or USB, please insert now. ".
  say that your CD/DVD drive is not detected.
  So you need to check if the BIOS so the CD/DVD drive is listed. It should appear on the first page of the BIOS.

  If you want to boot from the disk and then switch on and you press F12.
  Usually, a menu should appear that allows you to choose the ODD (CD/DVD)
  Choose this option and try to boot from the CD.

  Hello

  Sounds like a problem with the recovery disk or the new HARD disk if your computer starts up fine with the old HARD drive...

  In your case before you start a lengthy discussion, you should try a Microsoft Windows disk to install Windows. If he work it seems that only the recovery disk is defective.

  Otherwise, the HARD disk must be defective. Maybe a bad sector or something else

• SMU 8108 does not start with the new hard drive

  Hello

  I am currently using SMU 8108 with SMU-1062 q.

  The previous record was borken, so I had to install a new hard drive.

  The new hard drive is fommatted as NTFS format, and it is currently mounted on 8108.

  Unfortunately, I don't have recovery disk available to the general public so I am trying to install Windows 7 on a blank hard drive.

  When you start, the LED OK PWK light is all the time, orange DRIVE LED turns on for a few seconds only when I turn on the switch.

  LabVIEW RT switches are all off, I cleared CMOS several times to the Board of Directors, but the screen does not show anything.

  I tried to use my DVI monitor with any other device as well, and it worked, so there is no problem with the monitor.

  In addition, I tried to go in window safe mode by pressing F8 or Del it didn't work, so I can't see anything on the screen when his kick upward.

  I tried to put a lot of information I can it will be very appreciated if you can help me with this problem please.

  You said that you can't in Windows safe mode, you have installed Windows on the hard drive?  Are you able to get into the BIOS of the controller?

  If you are not able to access the BIOS for the controller, it may be due to bad RAM.  If you are uncomfortable installing RAM and you have a few extra laptop RAM of the same type (I think it's the DDR3 for your controller) laying around, you can try to replace the RAM.

  Was your hard drive damaged through certain events, or it just stop working?

• Satellite U500-17F: problems with the new HARD drive

  Hi everyone, I got some troubleshooting with my Satellite and a new drive, I bought recently, because that is already damaged because of too many bad sectors. One is a Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 Bg (WD3200BEKT model number). It should be a fast reader but is not with my Satellite.

  After having mounted the drive in the laptop, I ran a new installation (with full disk format} Windows 7 (64 bit) with all the necessary drivers (that I downloaded directly from the Page of Support Toshiba.)

  The problem is that the laptop needs a lot of time to start and also to disable, and whenever I try to run an application or start a program (for example Firefox, or just a few windows applications), the laptop freezes for about 30 to 60 seconds, the drive no longer works (you can hear leaders put in position 'parking' and the HDD LED control is constant) ", no lights flashing).

  It seems that the drive (during this 30-60 seconds) in something as a stand-by mode. I ran a few Western Digital diagnostic tools and the car looks all right to 100%. It works also without any problems in the other laptop (HP Pavilion DV6500). Could this be a problem with the controller (Intel ICH9M - E ATA AHCI controller) driver?

  Any suggestion?
  Thanx

  Hello

  You use the latest version of the BIOS?
  Please check if you need a BIOS update. Of course I read in a few discussions on the similar question of Win XP you use Win 7 but its value to check the update of the BIOS and U500 series.

  In addition, I recommend check you the power of Windows 7 options.
  Disable in the power profile that you use power saving HDD.

  Just a question:
  You use the option AHCI in the BIOS?
  As far as I know it of possible to use either a compatible SATA AHCI mode.
  AHCI must be used because this option would use full SATA performance.

  In general you can swap the HARD drive or update it with more a (ability), but the installation of recovery should work. It is important to use compatible HARD drive for certain system.
  I did several times in the past. No problem at all.

  After HDD change the value of the BIOS default settings and start recovery installation using created the recovery disc.

  Start your laptop and when you see Toshiba welcome screen pres F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu.
  When the menu is displayed on the screen, put the recovery DVD in the optical disc drive.
  In the menu choose you CD/DVD and press ENTER.
  Installation of recovery should start.
