• Satellite L655 - missing option "repair my computer".

  Hi all!
  I had a problem with my Satellite L655 (PSK1JE). I need to restore my factory settings (http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm), but F8 does not work.
  Where can I find the option "repair my computer"?

  How to find this option is clearly described in the document of Toshiba.

  Question is: what have you changed on your laptop? Please note: this option works on laptops with factory settings ONLY.

  If you have own OS this option no longer available.
  Please post some comments more.

• Cannot perform a system recovery option "repair your computer".

  I have an ADVENT PC with preinstalled vista. I had problems with my computer and it won't start in safe mode. I really want to do a destructive recovery of the entire system, but my computer won't let me even do.

  I start my computer and press F8. I select "repair your computer". At this point, according to my vista manual, I should get a selection menu language and the "Microsoft Windows start repair Environment. Instead, I get the windows logo, and then the log in screen. But instead of the usual choice of two user accounts, I have one option "Other user" very boring, with user name and password required. I tried my regular username and password, but it does not work. It says invalid or unable to connect at this time.

  So what's happening? Is there a way I can get into the system recovery options?

  Thank you, but finally I solved this problem by using a DVD I had been recommended to do when I got the recovery computer.

• "Repair your computer" option missing

  Hello

  I recently bought an Inspiron notebook. It came with four partitions on the disk:

  -Small utility Dell (hidden)

  -10 GB Dell Recovery

  -Main OS Partition (NTFS - OS drive)

  -2.5 GB Partition (hidden) MediaDirect

  As soon as I got my hands in the system, I copied the recovery on an external hard drive partition and delete the original from the hard drive of the laptop. When I rebooted, vista bootloader shows now two startup options:

  -The first boots into Windows normally

  -The second gives a «winload.exe» error message missing

  So I inserted vista dvd in the drive and used the recovery option to repair the boot loader. This deleted the entry of falty, but as a result, removed the "Repair your computer" option in the F8 boot menu. Now I can't restore factory settings even place after regaining the recovery partition is original.

  How to restore the F8 menu so that it shows the option "repair your computer"?

  
  

• 'Repair your computer' won't work on Satellite L30 - 101

  When I press F8 togo in this menu which gives the safe mode and other things, when I click on repair your computer, it won't work, it just asks me to power off the computer.
  How can I fix it.

  The problem started after I installed Winutilities that eventually delete all my photos but also installed programs showing as empty when I click on start at the bottom left. If I try to open Windows Media for example, it says its empty (since Winutilities deleted my stuff) so I tried to use repair your computer and that no longer works

  Help as im desperate

  Hello

  Maybe your system is confusing upward. You said, you have installed some software stuff (Winutilities) and possibly this affected your system.

  If you have a Vista disc (not the recovery disk Toshiba), you can start Notepad using this disc. During initialization, you should be able to choose a repair console providing an option that might help to fix and repair the system.

  If this is not enough, then you will need to install the new system :(

• Satellite L500 - how to restore the menu "repair your computer"?

  Hello world

  I have a laptop Toshiba L500, Yestaday I tried to restore the system to the factory settings (by pressing F8 at startup high and choose "repair your computer"). In the system has been installed almost, but at a stage of installation drivers to read memory cards and similar - there was a failure (the blue screen and need down) - after that - Windows 7 is not loaded. parsing errors (by means using a floppy disk to another Windows 7 install) says that the registry is damaged, cannot repair.

  but the main problem - when you press F8 at startup upward - there is no MORE menu 'Repair your computer' (!) . It is impossible to start Windows 7 predefined. So there's the hidden sector containing Windows predefined (I saw when loading a disc of hatch - Total order could start - and hidden sector was visible). All files in drive recovery HARD necessary are also available.

  How to restore the menu "repair your computer"? or how it is possible to start Windows predefined without pressing F8?

  > Hidden article exists, I saw it, there are all the files recovery HARD drive (which was in the laptop after buying), but I can't begin to recover Windows because I don't have menu not 'repair your computer' to start the laptop. He disappeared...
  Of course, the flag in the Advanced Start menu seems to be deleted and therefore drive recovery HARD option isn't available anymore.
  Probably the partition has changed.

  But in case of HARD drive recovery files are still available on the recovery partition, you can try to create the USB support of own recovery using of workaround:

  I have an Inspiron 1520 running Windows vista. I'm doing a restore of the entire system, instructions on the Dells Web site that press "F8" at startup. It is no problem, Advanced Start menu opens, and then its saying to select "Repair computer". That's the question, 'repair your computer' is not where to find them.

Please help, I need to have my laptop works properly again for work or school.

  I reinstalled Windows Vista and now I can't run "repair your computer". I need to do this because I'm missing a few scripts.  What should I do to fix this

  Hello

  Run the sfc/scannow command.

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:

• Satellite L300 - 22L - cannot reocver operating system after installing Win XP

  Hello

  I bought the Satellite L300 - 22L with preinstaled Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
  My computer has a problem and the blue screen appeared on my screen so I tried to reinstall it.

  I don't have any recovery CD, so I decided to install my old Windows XP.

  In the BIOS I changed the hard drive SATA compatibility mode before installing.
  During the instalation I deleted the partitions of origin and the new C: and D: partitions with sizes like origins.
  XP works fine, but I would like to recover the original Vista Home Premium laptop.

  I can't launch the utility of recovery with 'Zero' button after starting.
  How can I start the other way recovery utility?

  Thank you

  > I don't have a recovery CD so I decided to install my old Windows XP.
  You didn t receive the recovery disk because there was an option to create the recovery disk!
  Mentioned everywhere, you should read the user manual.

  > During the instalation I deleted the partitions of origin and the new C: and D: partitions with sizes like origins.
  > cannot start with 'Zero' button recovery utility after the start.

  First of all, I think that it is a European model for Toshiba laptop. In this case, you must press F8 for advanced boot menu and there you can choose repair my computer option. In a new window should appear the recovery option.

  BUT it will not work now because you have formatted and recreated the partitions!
  Now, you have no choice as to order the new recovery disk to reinstall Vista again.

  Hello!

  If you use Windows Vista, you must disable the WLAN energy saving function. You can find it in the Vista power management options. Check it!

  In addition, you should try to update the driver WLAN and the BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online downloads support & -online Download Driver

  Last but not least, I would recommend that you read hundreds of discussions on the problems of WIFI. You will find so much tips and tricks how to increase the WLAN functionality and troubleshooting.

  Hey,.

  I m a bit confused now
  What exactly happens on your laptop? You can start Windows?

  I think the article MS says it all: to repair Windows you need a disc of Microsoft Vista.

  Alternatives to reinstall the entire system use the Toshiba recovery disc that contains a picture of the factory settings. Have you created this disk?
