  • Satellite L300 - how to reinstall Windows Vista on the replacement HARD drive

    Hello

    My HARD drive has stopped working on my PSLB9E. He started making whirring noises and wouldn't start. all tests show it does not. Now I guess I need a replacement for HARD drive and watched a TOSH MK2565GSX or other similar. Problem is I can't find my Windows key anywhere.

    It is can get the key to Toshiba/Microsoft giving them all my contact information or do I have to buty a new HARD drive and install a copy newly purchased Windows on? If Yes, then I'll put W7 on I guess.

    Thanks in advance for any help I receive!

    > Problem is that I can't find my Windows key anywhere.
    The preinstalled Windows operating system and the image that is placed on the Toshiba recovery disc were already activated and therefore the serial key is not necessary.
    If you don t have the recovery disc, so you can buy this drive here:

    It s not expensive; 30 euros I guess.

    How to reinstall Windows 8

    You have two options:

    If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

    Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

    Option 2:

    If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

    Option 3:

    A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

    See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

  • How to reinstall windows without losing any data on the Satellite A100

    Hello everyone!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop and would like to reinstall Windows. The disc was divided into 2 parts. WinXp Home is installed on the first.

    What happens with the data on the secondary disk if I use the recovery CD? It will be formatted?
    And if this is the case, how can I reinstall winXP Home without losing the data on the second drive?

    You can install the OS on the first partition only and all data saved on the second partition will not be deleted. To do this procedure of departure recovery and after choosing the language button tablecloth call SETUP. It is placed on the right side.

    If I like what you must remember he chose the second option. The first one can be used when you want to create the new partition (DO NOT choose this one).

    Bye and good luck!

  • Re: How to reinstall windows vista on my Satellite L300

    I need to reinstall windows vista on my Satellite L300 because of a problem, I had with it (the computer does not start and the recovery option does not work). It has not come with a windows CD so how can I reinstall it?
    Do I have to get a CD by myself and if so - what version of windows vista is compatible with my laptop?
    (I can not contact the provider because I is not guaranteed).

    > It came not with a windows CD so how can I reinstall it?
    You had an option pre-installed on your laptop that you helped to create the recovery disk. Seems you didn't create this disk in the past

    Well, in this case, you can order the CD here:

  • Satellite L750D - 1CP - how to reinstall Windows

    Hi all

    I had my Toshiba for three years, which means that it becomes slower and fuller every day. I bought the laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed, so I never received a disc to re - install Windows if wanted. But at this point, I am a lot would like to reset my laptop to factory default, delete everything (installed programs, photos, downloads, data, etc.) and start from scratch, as if I just bought the laptop.

    Could someone explain how to do this? As there must be a way to start over once again, re - install Windows and start over with a laptop completely empty...?

    Looking forward to all the answers!

    Thank you very much
    Chucki3

    Hello. There are three ways for you to reinstall Windows:

    First of all. Plug your AC cable and shut down your laptop. Then he turns on again and press 0 (zero, not on the NUM pad). Wait for the recovery menu to appear and choose the necessary recovery options.

    In the second place. While in Windows 7 click on "Start" and go to "Control Panel". Then choose "System and security"-> "Restore your computer to an earlier time"-> "of the advanced recovery methods'-> 'return your computer to the factory State '.

    In the third place. Buy CD/DVD recovery for your Toshiba noteboook.

  • Satellite T130 - how to restore Windows 7?

    I bought a new Satellite T130 three days ago. It was pre-installed with Windows 7 Professional, but reckless, I enabled iPv6 and the problem started.

    The machine asked to restart the computer, but he was not able to start and instead, ask to have a repair process or start normally. The repair process failed, although I repeated several times and when trying to choose the normal startup option, it is to these two options. Then I decide to use my recovery disk supplied with the machine. He did well and the computer worked again, but it turned out to be a Windows XP. I don't dislike XP, but I really want to go back to Windows 7.

    How can I do? I have a new Windows 7?

    Please, help me...

    Hey,.

    It seems you did misunderstand something
    The disc that you used to reinstall Windows is a downgrade to Windows XP disc and has nothing to do with Windows 7!

    Windows 7 recovery disk is not delivered with the laptop and you must create this disk yourself using of preinstalled creative recovery disk Toshiba! But the problem is now, you can t it more because you have installed XP and there is no recovery disk creator and available files.

    Your only option is to order a drive recovery Toshiba here:

    Last but not least, I would say that you should first read the user manual before do you something wrong ;)

    At number 7 it of description Put again inside the new size of the partition, and then press ENTER. There you can put 50% of the maximum size of HARD drive. After this HARD drive will be split on both sides. The first (C) will be used for the operating system and all the software you need. The other (D), you can use to store all your sensitive data.

    If you sometimes in the future had to reinstall OS again use Expert mode and reinstall the operating system on the first partition. All the data you have on the second partition, you can use again.
