• Can satellite A300d-16W - I use HARD drive recovery after installing Win XP?

  I formatted my PC and installed XP. Can I reinstall Vista using HARD drive recovery?

  > I formatted my PC and install XP

  No, you cannot use the recovery HARD drive after installing Win XP because looks like you have formatted the HARD drive and the HARD disk partition has been erased.

  So you need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk that I hope, you created before you formatted the HARD drive.

• Low beginning on Satellite M40-145 after changing the 160 GB HARD drive

  Hello

  I own a Satellite M40-145 since 2005. After more than two years without any problem, two weeks ago the 80 GB hard drive to the original address has been damaged. So I had to replace it with a new, 160 GB (this replacement was made in a store because it's out of warranty).

  I used successfully on the new HARD drive recovery CD to install Windows XP and all the drivers (just as when it was new).
  I used Partition Magic to create a partition of D for data. Also, I installed Office 2003, Norton 360 and connected to the Internet.
  It worked quickly with only small problems than perhaps with little patience I could fix: as this Bluetooth hardware is not detected and the wireless switch began with the lights off even being in the position we (it worked with new just switching out-lit again). But suddenly, after only one day of use, Windows starts became very slow. It takes about 4-5 minutes until it is possible to use the laptop.

  Now, I tried many possibilities to solve the problem, but always ending on the same problem: I used the recovery CD again and try to use the computer with or without updates (I thought that maybe the problem was due to a bad update), with and without Internet access, etc.
  I also tried in vain the program Microsoft Bootvis to try to speed up the startup, etc.

  I even created an image with Acronis to only with XP and Office running fast, so that I could install it again and try new things.
  I also tried to clean the registry with various programs like CCleaner, TuneUp 2008
  Also the defrag JKDefrag and PageDefrag. But always returning to the same problem after a few days of good conduct.

  I don't know what else I could do. I wonder if maybe the new HD is damaged (although I test and no error or no damage was detected) or if the update BIOS might resolve this problem (I'm not and that's a big risk).

  Please, could someone help me?
  Thank you very much for your attention.

  In my view, that there is nothing wrong with the software or all drivers on you laptop.
  I think the key is the enormous size of the HARD drive.

  The difference between 80 and 160 GB is huge.

  To my knowledge, the BIOS supports a limit on the size of HARD drive and I really wonder why the 160 GB HARD drive has been recognized by the BIOS.

  However, I think you should test a 100 GB, 120 GB HDD if the same question perhaps if poster using a HDD a size smaller.

  Hello

  Seems that drive HARD recovery does not work.
  Perhaps something has changed on the recovery of HARD drive partition or recovery files has been deleted

  Usually it s always advisable to create a recovery disk in a first time. This should be done at the beginning and this recovery disk is always useful if something would go wrong with drive recovery HARD or with HARD drive

  Now, you can't get the phone because you don t have this drive and the HARD drive does not work

  What to do?
  Well, I think that you would need new control disc.
  You can do so here:

• Satellite P200D died - nothing on the screen, no HARD drive noise

  Hello
  Toshiba P200D-112 (satellite)
  Just 2 years and already 'OUT '.

  When I press the Start button, the power light comes on and will stay on.
  The fans start but stop in a few seconds and nothing more happens.
  Nothing on the screen, no hard noise complete silence.
  If I continue to press the start for a few seconds power button is sharp as usual.

  Looks like a protection stop start to work.

  I changed the CPU for nothing (the only chip that I can change without welding).
  I tried with battery and without the battery.
  I changed the HD.
  I deleted the DVD player.
  Now, I have on the table, just the motherboard and I have always the same thing.

  Do you please an idea on the reason of this phenomenon.
  Thanks Christos

  Hello

  I see you didn't check the RAM modules.
  Usually, it is the first part that should be checked before you disassemble the laptop everything and try to replace the other, new parts like CPU or similar

  But if the replacement of the RAM won't help, so I put t see any other solution proposal to replace the whole motherboard.

  It's a shame because the new motherboard costs a small fortune

• Satellite A100-906: Question on the processor and HARD drive temperature

  Hey guys,.

  I want to ask u for the level of normal temperature of this laptop? I want to know the temperature of the CPU (1,2) and the temperature of the HARD drive, because I think that my laptop is overheating and it is a problem for me :/ (my temperature is now around 50 for the 2 hearts and nearly 40 for hard disk) Is this ok or? Ty ;)

  Hello

  Believe me, the 50 degrees C for the CPU and C 40 degrees for the disk HARD is a normal temperature! It's rare!
  On my laptop the CPU temperature increases up to 60 degrees C if no application works.

  But be aware that the temperature varies.
  If you run different applications on the laptop, the performance of the processor will be increased and the temperature rises.
  That is a fact.

  There is nothing wrong GUY ;)

• Satellite A300-1J1 - how to use HARD drive recovery files to install Vista again

  I've read the threads that already exist, until anyone there sprang key of course, however I don't see the answers to my questions, so I hope someone can help.

  Basically my A300 has been regularly overheating and turning off, and after a recent instance of this, I left it disassembled and cleaned the radiator and the surround carefully.

  Unfortunately, reassembly, it became clear that Windows would not start, probably due to some problem caused by the most recent power cut or maybe even within my very careful disassembly?

  In any case, Vista does not start, in all modes, either standard, in safe mode or in repair mode. As standard, it screens with a message of error UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME blue etc.

  Mode of repair, windows bar logo and green rises, but then it just black screens and no more. Slight variation only I had here, it's that sometimes a white cursor rises, but still a black screen. I left the machine 30 minutes where there was a simple delay, but not... nothing happens, it just hangs.

  I have no CD of restoration, because I did not create one, but I was able to access all the files via the platform of Knoppix, and everything seems in order, so important HARD drive corruption seems unlikely.

  I see records to get Toshiba HDD and also Windows RE, so my question to you people is as follows; Is it possible that I can use these files that are still in tact to get Vista without buying a disc for £ 30 from Toshiba?

  My concern is, I don't see why the supposed recovery integrated does not work given that the associated files still seem present and intact on the disk, and I'm reluctant to lose 30 pounds on something, if it is not guaranteed to work in all cases.

  What would you recommend I do?
  My files are backed up and whatever is left is not important... I just want to restore my Vista more quickly, more simple, the cheapest possible.

  Hey,.

  Unfortunately I think that there is nothing you can do because the files are unnecessary if disk HARD recovery doesn't work because you must be able to access the Windows Advanced Boot menu.

  I agree with you, it's not good recovery disc HARD Toshiba doesn't work for you, but you must also understand s your fault if you didn't create the recovery disk as mentioned in the user manual. ;)

  So either buy you a new recovery disk or you are using a Microsoft Windows disk to reinstall Windows. All drivers and tools that you can download on the page of Toshiba.

• What is the function of hard drive recovery?

  Updated from XP to 7 Home Premium and find a record 14.6 GB is only currently 9.6 GB free. What is function of this drive?

  A recovery disk drive is installed by major computer manufacturers (by example, Acer, Dell, Gateway, HP, etc.) and contains the information necessary to return the hard drive from the original computer to its factory configuration.  For example, if you were to read the Guide to the user supplied with your PC and your PC originally came with Windows Vista preinstalled at the factory, the user's Guide would teach you how to use the recovery disk to reformat the hard drive and reinstall Windows Vista.

• The wrongly cloned HARD drive recovery

  Hello everyone,

  Instead of using a third-party cloning software, I tried to clone my drive with disk utility. After restart my laptop, I went into recovery by using the command-R and used disk utility menu in this menu. However, I accidentally chose the empty as the source disk Hd and the Macintosh Hd as the destination. I started the process, but in 10 seconds my laptop over cloning. Now I have two empty disks. I tried to restart my system but my whole data were missing. I stopped using it and immediately deleted. Is it possible to restore my drive? I tried 3 data rescue, but my whole files in over 26 thousand records without name. It is very difficult to sort and on top of that, I have really no idea about the collection again correctly my archives 'Photos '. Is there anyone who had this experience? What should I do? Not all recovery software of this kind of recovery with thousands of anonymous records?

  Now, I run my middle 2012 non-retine Macbook Pro 15 "with a new Hd I use El Capitan 10.11.5, if that's important. And also the other drive that I deleted in a box for external drive.

  There is also a thing. It's really very easy to delete our internal drives. Just restart your computer, then press command-r to start the recovery mode. You can clone an empty drive to your home without any problem. Utility disk never asked me my password before cloning. Attackers can erase your data all in 10 seconds. It's really disappointing. I admit it's my mistake, but it does not that much easy to delete my entire drive.

  Thanks in advance and I hope that Apple can solve the problem and may make it difficult to erase drive in recovery mode.

  Apple not to specialize in data recovery, they will probably refer you to someone else.

  If you want to send comments about how easy it was for you to mess up your system, you can use the Web page of apple.com/feedback for do.

  To try to solve the problem, I used the sistem of HARD drive recovery by pressing F8 in the boothing process.

  I have a windows repair disc, but it was made only a few days ago and this pc is in my possetion for 3 years now.
  Is there a way I can recover my sistem in the original?

  Thank you
  João

  Yes, you can get it back to factory settings. You can only do so in a way: you must use the recovery DVDs. Have you created this disk?

  Please don t mix Windows repair disk and recovery disk. For now you can not repair anything. What you need to do is clean installation of image recovery.

• Satellite P300 - 20 H - what should I do after HARD drive recovery?

  Hello

  I just picked up my Satellite P300 - 20 H, using HARD drive recovery,

  Any ideas as to what I should do now? Laptop backed up, HDD Recovery wiped and returned the laptop to factory default. What should I do now? I never wiped a laptop or a PC before. I did the restore via the HARD disk and all came back when I got the laptop almost 2 years ago but now I have 108 updates to windows, and my Toshiba Tempro does not work.
  I have to update all the drivers on the laptop and if so, how do I know what needs to be updated and how can I do this?

  I went to the Toshiba site and he gave me a list of the drivers available for my particular model but I am not sure how much of these driver updates, I need to actually download and update.

  If someone could help me it would be really appreciated.
  I would be delighted if someone could just explain to me, because I don't know anything about pc / laptop and just want my laptop back to power. So that everything works correctly. I read in the section of the conductors, on toshiba.com that not all windows service packs must be downloaded not all work along the coast Toshiba laptops. So im stuck if I have to download and install updates Windows 108 that are required to be installed also.

  Hope someone can help out me.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey,.

  I m wondering about your question: it seems that you have made the recovery of HARD drive but you didn t know what HDD recovery not right?
  As you have noticed, it will restore your computer back to factory settings. You have the same settings that you have purchased. It is therefore useful if Windows doesn t start more or you want to reinstall Windows.

  You can use your laptop as before: there is no difference. All Windows updates should be installed, that's very important because they are security updates day and you help protect your computer. So, start Windows updates and follow the installation.

  Site Web de Toshiba driver updates aren't important, only when you notice problems. If this isn't the case, you can forget the driver updates. ;)

• Instead of the wizard of recovery HARD drive recovery

  Dear all,

  I would like to re - install the OS on my Satellite Pro T130 laptop without changing the partitions. This is possible with the http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm Recovery Wizard

  However, when I boot my laptop with the Advanced Boot Menu (F8), I think the recovery menu of disk in the System Recovery Options, no recovery Wizard.

  I tried to start this wizard by starting the computer with the button zero (0) at the top, but it did not work. I closed the windows, pushed and held 0, turned on my laptop, when Toshiba logo appeared I sill held the key zero and instead of the Recovery Wizard, open windows.

  I tried at least 10 times and it's getting frustrating.

  I bought this laptop in Hungary in 2010.
  I was wondering that Toshiba offers the two (HDD Recovery + Recovery Wizard) on their laptops or older laptops recovery options came with only HDD Recovery?

  If the start procedure with the zero key does not work, what can I do?

  In addition, I understand the difference between HARD drive recovery and Recovery Wizard is as follows: (please, correct me if I'm wrong)

  HARD drive recovery is re-definition of the manufacturer State which means that it removes all the data in each partition. When you turn on the laptop first time computer, a wizard will appear so you can partition the hard drive. As out-of-box + customization option in the Recovery Wizard.

  Recovery Wizard has three options: out of area (described previously), customization of partitions and recovery without changing the hard drive partitions. I want to use this option, so will not delete all the data of the first partition of the hard disk (drive C). Is no data on other partitions like D, E (etc.) readers.

  Am I wrong?

  Thank you for your answers,

  Kind regards

  Hello

  According to the specifications of the laptop this Satellite Pro was offered with the version preinstalled Win7 and Windows XP Home edition recovery DVDs. Win7 preloaded includes preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator tool so the laptop owner can create recovery (bootable USB key) media which includes the original image of recovery for Win7. This bootable USB key can be used for recovery image installation if there is a problem with the installation of HARD drive recovery.

  As I see you have a problem with the installation of HARD drive recovery, so my question is: did you create this recovery media? You, and you can use it for installing Win7?
  > However, when I boot my laptop with the Advanced Boot Menu (F8), I only find the recovery menu of disk in the System Recovery Options, no recovery Wizard.
  Toshiba HDD Recovery option in the system recovery options will be available if phone has settings to factory only.
  > I tried to start this wizard by starting the computer with the button zero (0) at the top, but it did not work. I closed the windows, pushed and held 0, turned on my laptop, when Toshiba logo appeared I sill held the key zero and instead of the Recovery Wizard, open windows.
  Why don't you use zero to startup? Where did you find the description that you use NRA to launch the installation of HARD drive recovery? I can see in the document validated by Toshiba, you need to use F8 only. When you use F8 and enter advanced startup options is option fix my computer available or not?
  > I asked Toshiba offers the two (HDD Recovery + Recovery Wizard) of the recovery options on their laptops or older laptops with single HDD Recovery?
  All portable Toshiba offered with Win7 preinstalled have Toshiba HDD recovery option but only if they have the factory settings. If the owner of the laptop installation version of the OS option no longer available. In this case, you can install original recovery image using recovery media created.

  From my experience, you should only use the out-of-box option. Be careful with the other options. Recover a custom size partition may lose all the data and recovery image too.

  More important is: you have a recovery (USB or DVD) media or not?
