• No system boot, how to access the recovery partition?

  Hello
  While messing around with win7 and xp (from vista that was preinstalled on my system), I managed to make my computer unbootable.

  I made the recovery discs when I came to my computer, but I left with my parents... which is be the other side of the world (literally).

  However, I also kept the "recovery partition" intact, I hoped I could start somehow, but I don't know how.
  I tried holding down the zero, F2, F8... of other ideas?

  If not, is there another way to do it from a live CD? (like the one I currently use to write this message)

  Chris.

  Unfortunately, you will not be able to access the files for recovery. It can be done if the laptop has only factory settings. You use updated the system with two operating systems. If you want to have the factory settings again you can have with using the recovery disc only.

  I put t know how long it will take but maybe you should communicate with your parents and ask if they can send you the recovery disc as soon as possible.

  Otherwise you will have to use the installation disk of Microsoft for clean operating system installation. It can also be good solution for a few days until what you expect of original disc.

• Equium won't start - how to access the recovery partition?

  Hi, my sister has a 2008 Equium A200-1V0 with Vista 32-bit, that no longer starts (probably due to damage of rootkit virus). It loads the BIOS but then goes to black screen with blinking cursor.

  F8 does not work.
  F2 goes to Phoenix TrustedCore Setup utility. The Toshiba hard drive and a CD-ROM drive are listed in hand and start in the right order.

  Using F12 I can get it to boot from a Win7 64 bit repair disc that I burned using my laptop.

  However, it does not recognize the operating system or any image or restore points (because it is 64-bit) but he will be responsible for command prompt.

  To * guest *, I can launch Notepad and when I click on file / open and double click on computer it shows 4 Hard drives as follows:
  Local disc (c :))
  Data (d :)) 42 GB free of 54.5 GB
  WinRE (e :)) 1.11 GB free of 1.46 GB)
  Boot (x :)) 29.0 MB of free space of 31.5 MB (which is used by the repair disk)

  So the C: drive is listed, but without ability.

  * CHKDSK *.
  CHKDSK c: /r and press return

  «The type of the file system is NTFS.»
  Unable to determine the status and version of the volume. CHKDSK is abandoned.
  Cannot transfer messages saved in the journal of the events with the 50 State.

  * Run TESTDISK *.

  Analysis:
  Size of the partition start end in sectors
  1 P Windows RE (store) 0 32 33 191 89 26 3072000
  2 * HPFS - NTFS 191 89 27 7477 118 1 117051392
  3 P HPFS - NTFS 7477 118 2 14592 190 62 114307072 (data)

  * = Primary bootable
  When you perform a quick search, then P - list of files, the second partition it reports:
  "Cannot open the file system. Filesystem seems damaged. »

  So what I want to do is boot to Windows restore to drive E.

  My question is for Toshiba experts: If F8 does not work how to use the recovery partition?

  > THIS ISN'T MICROSOFT, TOSHIBA, AND GOOD PRODUCT DESIGN.
  I really put t know that should do better than to place the Microsoft sticker at the bottom.
  This product key and sticker on it's just proof that you purchased the machine with an operating system preinstalled and legal active OS version. This key belongs to original OS (recovery image) that you got with your laptop and it is not a kind of universal key that you can use for the activation of the operating system if you have made the decision to install the clean version of the OS.

  In General, this key is totally useless. While your computer you've got legal copy and this version, that you can install so often desired. It must not be enabled.
  > So my question still remains: can I recover my Toshiba laptop using this restore partition?
  If you want to recover using the Toshiba recovery image response is not. Cannot start HARD drive recovery facility.
  > Even with a dvd of Windows Vista is genuine, I can't reload the OS
  In my opinion you need make the clean OS installation using the clean installation or order original Toshiba Recovery disk on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx disc and install original (already active) recovery image.

• Help... How to use the recovery on Pavilion g4 2014tx partition

  Thank you...

  Hello:

  You normally start the PC, and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, you press the F11 key to start the Recovery Manager program.

  Then follow the instructions to restore your PC to its state of software "out of the box.

  In so doing you re-partition and reformat the hard drive.

  All THE data you have on the PC will be lost.

  So make sure that you copy the files that you want to keep on a portable hard drive before proceeding.

  It is also for if you have created a storage partition. You must copy all the files from that too.

  All partitions are erased and redone.

  Deleted file recovery can recover incomplete files, i.e. the part of these files may be missing.  Recover deleted files is much more reliable if recovery of a backup, instead of using recovery software.

  These things depend on the operating system and the file system.

  One thing, you can see: open one of these files damaged with a text editor, and then make sure that the constant % PDF is somewhere in the first 1024 bytes.

• Re: Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X - how to access the recovery partition?

  I've formatted Windows 7 with a Windows XP CD but did not setup. I wanted to know how to access the recovery partition to set it by default, everything exists on the laptop right now is Ubuntu, but I don't know, I saw an additional partition that must contain recovery files as laptop did not come with a recovery disk and unfortunately did not create a filter.

  How can I access the recovery partition on the laptop having in mind, I formatted the drive Windows 7 was installed on or should I activate or something like that?

  Any help much appreciated

  Hey,.

  On the second partition of your laptop (data partition), you will find a folder named HDDrecovery and it contains recovery files. The problem is that you can use the HARD drive only with the pre-installed operating system recovery feature. It would mean in your case it s too late now and it s not in use anymore.

  You have created the Toshiba recovery disc as mentioned in the user manual? If Yes, you can use this disk to restore to factory settings. Just boot from this CD and follow the instructions on the screen.

  If you don t have the recovery disc, you can order it here:

• How to use the recovery CD?

  Hello

  Ive lost the instructions to tell me how to use the recovery CD. I forgot, I need to press to access the disks when I reboot!

  Can anyone help please?
  St. Clare

  Hi clear, before using the recovery CD make you that all important data has been saved to the floppy or USB key because the procedure will erase the entire hard drive. The method for booting from a cΘdΘrom may vary according to the model number of your laptop, but it's something like hold the 'B' button for the Toshiba Startup logo. If this fails you can try to change the boot sequence or use the Toshiba from Windows or the BIOS configuration tool (ESC then F1 when prompted from a cold start) make CD-ROM the first device startup in the list.

• I'm not clear how to use the recovery CD

  I added all the space using my HDD is it comes about 12 GB, I have 27.9 GB of disk space, but my drive has only 1.80 left disk space. I made clear to solve this problem. Basket is empty, I ran disk cleanup.

  A computer expert suggested that Windows might have become confused and cannot recognize what place I save, it might be because I ran a program called Cyberscrub often. His solution is to reload Windows XP home. My laptop came with recovery discs, everything else is already loaded. I have so much I don't want to lose on my laptop. If I use the recovery discs, I will lose everything on my computer, am I better off buying Windows XP home and re-load, in which case I will not lose my job?

  Also I am not clear how to use the recovery discs, I can't find instructions on what you are doing.
  The only person who could help me went to travel and not reachable.
  Any help greatly appreciated

  It of a very simple to recover the laptop.
  Just boot from the recovery CD and follow the instructions on-screen ;)

  I put t know what version recovery CD you have, but the older one provides the standard and expert mode. In expert mode, you can choose you partition where the OS is to be installed.
  So in this case only the selected partition will be formatted!

  But have you checked the size of the HARD disk in disk management?
  Simply click on the my icon my computer and choose manage.

  Of course, you could remove the internal HARD disk and it could connect to the external USB HDD controller. Then, connect the drive HARD to the second PC and you record data on another HARD drive.

• How to use the recovery on the Satellite A100-192 with 2 partitions CD

  I have a satellite a100-192 with 100 GB hard drive.
  When I bought it I used magic norton 8.0 partion to divide the disk into two partitions, c drive (used for files of program and other things; 20 GB) and d ' drive that I use for all my documents, music, videos and similar stuff...

  and now, because of a few bad shots, I made (the software bad... lol) I want to reinstall windows. and honestly, I have no idea how to proceed. what I mean, I don't know what cd to use (I have two CD when I bought the computer), in fact I guess that's the one with ms a note on it, but how to do it safely without losing all my data on the d drive?

  The problem is that I did a lot of relocations on desktop computers when you hava clean facilities and then I know what I'm doing, but I have no experience with bundled windows installations.

  Hello

  Usually, Toshiba laptops are supplied with a Toshiba restore CD.
  On this CD, you will find the image of Toshiba which contains all Toshiba drivers and utilities.

  The question is what CD image you received.
  Some people here in the forum suggested that, since January 2006 the Toshiba Recovery CD supports another recovery procedure. The new recovery CD does not support the ghost but the surface RECO and it s not possible to choose the partition for the installation of the OS.
  In this case the whole HARD disk will be deleted and you will lose all your partitions.

  I have only one old recovery CD and so I can't say if it is possible to choose the right partition. It was possible on the old recovery cd by selecting the expert mode.

  In my view, that should make a backup of you all important files before you begin the recovery procedure.

  You can get a new drive to an authorized service provider.

  But if the original OS from Toshiba is installed, you can use the function of disk recovery HARD reinstall Windows as well. Go to the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer :)

  I'm downgrading my laptop for Windows XP SP2 home edition.
  I formatted all the HARD drive, to make a few partitions.

  Secondly, as already described in different threads, you have to boot from the recovery DVD and this will begin the new installation image.
