• Re: Satellite L300 - made recovery but disc does not work

  I have a Satellite L300 and did a few sets of recovery discs from what I read some brands work and some don't, and none have so far.

  Insert Diskette 1, press the button and hold F12 key until the startup option appears.
  Select CD/DVD and then back type box appears with X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe - startnet.cmd
  and in the box waiting for ODD vacancies...

  You can add several points after that as nothing is more - so three sets of recovery disks on three different brands of DVD any advice would be pleaseing!

  Hello

  According to your description, the system restore procedure does not start, and the STRANGE can not read the disc.

  In your case I would recommend recover laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery.
  You can start the procedure of HARD drive; Press F8, choose repair my computer, Toshiba HDD recovery.
  Now the system restore should products

  After the laptop has been set to factory settings, check to see if there is an update of firmware for this CURIOUS (CD/DVD drive). If yes-> update the firmware.
  I know you tried three different brands of DVD but you should always try to create a recovery disk using another DVD disc I m using TDK DVD-R and had good experience with it. One of my friends uses Verbatim DVD-R and never had problems

• Re: Satellite L300 - Keep recovery partition when you use DBAN

  Hello

  I usually use DBAN to wipe my drives, however, I am interested in doing this on a laptop without destroying the recovery partition.

  Essentially on a satellite L300 I want to erase the HDD using DBAN (Darik Boot and Nuke) (while maintaining the recovery partition), and then perform a clean installation of Windows 7. Is this possible or should I look at another alternative?

  Thank you

  I don t use DBAN and may not give you the right answer, but one thing I must say: create a recovery DVD using the Toshiba recovery disc creator pre-installed and after doing this, you can do whatever you want.

  If a problem occurs, you can install OS using these disks.
  Please note: when you install using Win7 clean recovery of recorded disc image non-Toshiba makes no sense more because you will not be able to start the recovery of HARD drive more. For factory again, you must use Toshiba recovery DVD.

• Satellite L300-1AY recovery does not

  Hello

  I have a question about the recovery for a Tosihba Satellite L300-1AY with Windows Vista preinstalled.
  I wanted to grab my laptop and when I pressed F8 during startup I could choose Restore my computer.

  But after the game, I received a message-box (System Recovery Options) telling me that installed programs may not start, and the only option I had was press OK then the computer shuts down.

  I was wondering if there was any way, this can be corrected or if there is another way to get my computer back.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You may retrieve the laptop using the recovery DVDs that you created if all goes well before this problem happened
  Did you create recovery DVDs?

  If this isn't the case, then only the HARD drive recovery option can be used.
  For this you have to press F8 after that laptop has been powered.
  Then choose fix my computer.
  Then a new window will appear and then you could choose Toshiba Recovery.

  If this procedure does not start and you will not be able to use HARD drive recovery you need a Toshiba Recovery DVD.

  If you didn t create the recovery DVD, so you can order it here:

  > I don't have a free USB key to test the usb mode.
  I recommend you to buy a separate USB memory key and to create the eventual recovery USB flash memory support.

  Hey,.

  Before you start a lengthy discussion, can you install Windows from a normal disk of Microsoft? Just to test if it s a bad hardware work or not.

• Satellite L300-215 - recovery disk could not be installed on this hardware

  Hi, after running fine for several months I stopped my laptop recently and when I went to start upward again it tells me that there is an error with Windows and was to be the center of repair.

  After four hours of waiting and get no - where I decided to use the recovery discs, I had the last time I sent him away. After installing all the necessary components it then tells me it was installing Windows. After doing this for ten minutes, I got a pop up block telling me that "Windows cannot be installed on this material. After it closes and I restarted, he told me the same message and suggest I reinstall so I tried the process and it ended in the same result.

  What is the problem?

  Hello

  I m wondering... I never heard of such an issue.
  If I understand you correctly, you have received the Toshiba recovery disks or have you created yourself?

  Maybe the recovery discs are not designed for this type of laptop
  If you can test it with a disc of Microsoft you should do. Maybe it will work.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know if the motherboard of your laptop was exchanged prior. Theoretically, this could happen missing DMI information. In this case an authorized service provider can help you. :)

  For ten minutes, nothing happens.

  Except a piece of my electricity bill is consumed by the white backlit screen.

  All words of advice, support, etc. greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  At first, I can say that this recovery disk cannot be used for repairs. You can only use it for the new operating system installation.
  Behavior described is certainly not OK and you should be able to see the menu with the language options listed.

  What you can do?
  I'm scared of m not big thing. BIOS setting to default and try several times to see if you're lucky and the installation of recovery will be properly implemented.
  For testing purposes, you can try to get the Microsoft installation disc and see if the installation of the operating system starts correctly.

• Re: Satellite L300 - 11 c - HDD which is built in?

  Hello
  I would like to know if the hard drive in the L300 - 11 c is SATA or IDE. Are they particular size or fit any disk 2.5 "?
  Any help would be appreciated :)

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  I have the Satellite L300 too so I can say that this laptop uses SATA hard drives. So if you want to buy a new HARD drive, you should buy one with SATA or SATA2 interface. Both will work in Satellite L300.

  In addition, you need a normal 2.5 HARD drive. These drives are designed for the use of the laptop.

  If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

• Satellite L300 - error recovery disc creator - disk is scratced or dirty

  Hi all

  I tried to create recovery disks for my L300, but after a 1-2 minutes, the program stops and says: 'Please check if the disc is scratced or dirty, if so, try again with a new disc' error code 0E01B5-26-2A030C00.

  I tried this many times with many different DVD in recent weeks, but this continues to be!

  The machine is old just a few weeks and run Vista family premium advice please as Im stuck.

  Thanks for reading.

  Hi mate

  I think that you have used are simply not fully compatible disks and supported.
  In my case I couldn't t create the recovery because the CD/DVD drive was not able to manage it.

  Is that many CD & DVD discs supports properties and different standards and in many cases, CD/DVD players have a lot of difficulties to manage different disks.
  I think you should just test some DVD-R discs.

  I use DVD-R and was able to create the recovery disk.

• Satellite L300 - product recovery disk hangs on step 2 of the installation program

  The product recovery disk will not work, it hangs on step 2 of the installation program.

  Help appreciated

  Hello

  Do you mean you cannot create the recovery disk or do you mean that you cannot complete the installation of recovery procedure?

  If you can not finish to create the recovery disk, then you must test different drives from different manufacturers. In most cases, this helps

  I m with Verbatim DVD-R

• Re: Satellite L300-254 - need Win XP driver for WLan and FN keys

  I have laptop satellite L300-254 pslbge and have problems with drivers. This computer was emty (no recovery disk or drivers) then I bought it.

  I installed Win XP SP 2 disabling AHCI. Instaled the common Modules, Chip Set Utility, and when I try to install the drivers of controls (for the Fn keys). It is said that I did not install common Modules.

  Tried to install the WiFi drivers (realtek, but I do not know if the wlan hardware is realtek), but it is not recognized in Device Manager, (? ethernet controller), Lan works well.

  So please help me with wlan and the Fn keys problems

  Hey Buddy!

  I m using a Satellite L300 too with XP and I t notice any problem. It works correctly and the Web from Toshiba site displays all the drivers and tools for this.

  However, firstly everything that you should make sure that you have installed all the drivers for your laptop. The site Web of Toshiba shows only Realtek driver for WIFI then I guess you have Realtek WLAN card. You can run setup.exe to install drivers or if you get an error message?
  If you are not sure, you can also check what WLAN card you have on this site:
  http://www.PCIDatabase.com/
  The vendor and device ID, you can see in-online WLAN card properties Device Manager.

  Toshiba tools for FN keys, I can only say that you must install applications first Toshiba and then all the other common Modules. Common modules are required for all Toshiba applications works. Then remove the tools installed Toshiba and use this installation order that I used successfully on my Satellite L300:
  Toshiba Common modules
  TOSHIBA Hotkey utility
  Toshiba Touchpad POWER utility
  Toshiba Utilities
  Toshiba controls
  TOSHIBA Power Saver (not necessary, but very nice tool).

  I hope I could help a bit.

  Good bye

• Satellite L300 Windows 7 to Vista with Toshiba Recovery CD

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 Series (2008 model) cell, which was originally Vista but I installed Windows 7 Professional on this topic. I would now like to go back to Vista.

  I noticed that the "Windows.old" folder created on the c: / drive appears to be missing a lot of files and could have been modified since the date of that its creation. I think it would be too risky to use it to recover back to Vista.

  So my question is can I use my original Toshiba Recovery DVD set to return to Vista? I want to do a full factory reset to restore my system when it was purchased with Vista.

  If the recovery DVDs is not an option and was the only is by using the Windows.old folder, if it is missing important files so she could leave my corrupt system? I don't know there is a way to get back to Vista by restoring factory somehow.

  Comments and reactions to urgent!

  Thanks in advance.

  > So my question is can I use my original Toshiba Recovery DVD set to return to Vista?
  Without a doubt. Only using original recovery disks you will have factory settings again.
