• Satellite A135 - new installation of HARD drive "windows cannot be configured.

  I have a portable Satellite A135-S4467 with a hard drive failed (WD 160 GB).
  I bought a new hard drive (WD 320 GB).
  When I try to install windows vista (32 bit) on the new hard drive by using the original factory software installation CD toshiba, I get the following error message:
  "windows cannot be configured to run on this computer hardware.

  After reboot, Windows will start normally or in safe mode.
  I updated the BIOS to version 1.9.
  I tried also to install the updated RAID/AHCI drivers of intel to the windows installation, as recommended by the windows forums - I always get the same error message, even after several attempts to completely reinstall windows.

  Several forums, I searched for recommended to change the settings of the HDD (RAID COSM) in the BIOS.
  I don't know how / if to do this. When I enter the BIOS, I see the hard drive, but I can't select it, so I couldn't try it.

  It seems that I've tried everything, without success. I took care to unplug all external/etc devices during the installation as well. I also did all the drivers are for vista 32 bit.

  Help, please!

• Can satellite M70 - I use all hard drives 2.5 "?

  All HDD 2.5 "can be put in Satellite M70 or they must have specific dimensions? For example, I thin on Samsung spinpoint [model: http://www.pricerunner.com/pl/36-765680/Hard-Drives/Samsung-SpinPoint-T166-320GB-SATAII-7200rpm-Compare-Prices].

  It will be OK for my laptop?

  Hello!

  As far as I know the Satellite M70 was available with hard drives SATA and IDE hard drives. If you have a SATA HDD, you can use this HARD drive.

  The Satellite M70 takes to load only SATA150 (SATA1) but this isn't a problem. All SATA2 HDDs runs SATA1 mode and are 100% compatible.

• Satellite L500D - replacing the DVD - RW drive

  I have a model of Satellite L500D PSL T6A-015003. (portable)

  Recently I placed a CD in the DVD RW drive and the CD did not play.

  When I removed the CD, the disc of black Center that keep the CD etc up to were broken on the disk. The black disc was stuck in the CD I pulled out and a small piece and spring also fell out.

  Can I get a replacement black Center disk or do I have to buy a replacement DVD RW drive. If I have to buy a replacement drive, can someone please tell me where I can buy one, I'm in Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia.

  I have a few details to the reader, these are:

  HL data storage
  Super multi DVD re writer
  Model GT20N (7 7 ATAK)
  Serial number BOCRGTB831062

  I appreciate any help on this

  In my opinion, you should buy another ODD and of course identical. You have any important data on this piece of hardware so use Google and check if you can find an online store in your country where you can order.
  In the worst cases contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask if they can order it for you.

• Toshiba Satellite S50 - A - is dead HARD drive?

  Hello.. I hope I can get some answers from other owners of S50 - A or least maybe a tech?... are these discs defective or only supposed to last two years so you get out of your wallet again so Toshiba infiltrates the money from you?

  My father bought this laptop for me for the College and school so I can work and play at the same time it's about 2 years old...

  Model of care &: S50 - A Satellite, model # PSKKEC - 00G 007 - Intel i5 - Geforce GTX A 740 m - to-SATA 1.

  2 years... Since purchasing computers laptops are pretty perfect, I have done regular upward Dungeon defragments hard-ware/anti virus scans and every quarter I ran across a sweep of care system advanced... everything was fine.

  The only games I play quite a lot on this laptop is counter-strike Global Offensive by H1Z1... a week ago, I was on teamspeak and it said that I had a driver error and tells me to restart, I did... and that's where it went all down hill...

  I had a lot of mistakes, lack of funds etc., tried to do a reset from the pc, is not called zero also tried to try a restore of the system without success... hard disk started vibrating and making a 'written' sound (as the disc has been actively writing incredibly fast..) it was so distorted, I couldn't save any recent stuff... (last back up I did was about 3-4 months before)... no all my photos & academic materials are uploaded to servers online, so I was Biggie don't like meh, whatever... I listen to music on spotify so care to lose all that.

  My only option was to format the disk and do a clean install... what worked for one week... was able to update all my drivers download/install geforce experience and my anti virus program, log in to my school credentials and downloaded steam... everything was going a lot and yesterday after a session of one hour of h1z1 I quit the game and when I tried to open my browser google chrome that nothing answered, the button start to reset would not answer the computer literally just does not react anymore than all...

  Forced a restart and got bsod - unmountable_boot_volume - entered the command... prompt he says pretty well sound replacing each bad cluster known to man... nothing was fixed/repaired... do you have a chkdsk c:/r/f and got this - an unspecified error 766f6c756d652e63 3f1

  I am ready to throw in the towel on this... I guess that Toshiba gives a 1 year warranty on all hardware related Articles?... so there is no point in calling me to and ship unless I want to pay an arm and one leg for another 1 TB sata-one that will only last another 2 years?... or should I go to some place local tech and get them to install a crucial 2.5 "500 GB SSD?

  People of any options?... I am open for them.

  Thanks for reading,

  See you soon.

  HARD drive seems defective.
  SSD is a good choice, but avoid those that use a starforce controller, since they have more problems than others.
  The Intel and Samsung SSD seem to be the most compatible.

• Satellite Pro C660-1LR - new HARD drive but no recovery disk

  I need help for my son who is the Satellite Pro C660 1LR laptop.

  In this portable hard drive is completely dead, I have not created a disk of recovery for this system of portable computers.
  I bought a new hard drive that is installed... However, as you guessed it I have no access to reinstall an OS, this laptop works on windows 7.

  I'm not really tech savvy so if someone can advise me please do explain to the fool proof format! I try to avoid having to buy something expensive.

  > I'm trying to avoid having to buy something expensive.
  Problem is that you don't have many options in this regard.
  If you want to have the factory again settings you must install recovery disc. You can order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx of course is not free, but, in my opinion, without a doubt the best solution.

  You can buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version. You must purchase a valid license for it.
  In this case, you must install all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for more than one by one.

  Just in case you can get this installation of Microsoft and the free license you can save money.

  Believe me, the best solution is the original recovery disk command.

  MK3265GSX Toshiba 320 GB 2.5 "hard drive SATAII 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache - OEM

  Does it matter what company it comes? I thought I got it was weird that the Satellite U300 would not transfer more easily.

  If anyone has any ideas please let me know...

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  Theoretically, you can install each HARD drive with SATA 2.5 form factor interface in Satellite Pro U400.

  If you install a new HARD drive in Satellite Pro U400, you must use the old disk cover/case HARD to install.
  I put t know what you mean exactly with that, but maybe you can upload a photo to make it clearer.

  Finally and above all it doesn t matter what company it comes. You can use a Toshiba or another company HARD disk too like Western Digital, Seagate, etc..

• Satellite M30 - need to change HARD drive

  Hello

  I bought a Satellite SM30-104 (model No.: PSM30E-0QRYK-EN) in 2004 and it seems that the HARD drive is dead since it reboots windows xp family again and again. While Windows is loading, at some point, the laptop restarts from the beginning. I can not even access the Bios.

  Therefore, I suspect the HARD drive to be dead and would like to change: SMART MK4021GAS HDD2182 B ZE01 T, 40 GB, 4200 RPM,.

  Could you please let me know where I can buy a new, similar or compatible with more storage?

  Your response will be much appreciated!
  Best regards

  Florian PAUMEIR

  Hmm if the HDD died then windows would not load what whatever, and you get an OS message cannot be found.

  However, if you want to change the HARD drive then you can do this
  You will need a 2.5 IDE HDD. I think the 120 GB limitation due to the LBA28bit
  However, it is my personal opinion perhaps more HARD drive would be compatible as well

• Satellite L655-1HE «Problem of HARD drive recovery»

  Hello

  I have the Satellite L655-1HE. I created a "HARD drive recovery" through "create recovery media. On the contrary, CD/DVD, I put it in a USB Flash drive. But when I used it, a mistake was "copy of splitpart or the Canadian Red Cross has failed!" After that, I can't boot my laptop more. There is a message "BOOTMNGR missing." I think I already deleted the operating system in the player. Please help me. How can I fix?

  Hello

  If you can, please try to boot again from the USB and run the recovery.

  Whatever the problem, if the recovery is unsuccessful, I recommend the following steps:

  -buy a set of recovery-store to the wire to https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu
  -If you did, and even this game fails to install, take care to check your HARD disk for problems.

  Hope this helps

• Satellite L750-16Z, bigger new HARD drive need

  Now I need to buy a new internal HDD for my laptop and I would like to buy one that is at least 1 TB. What is the maximum capacity drive that I buy for this laptop and are there restrictions on manufacturers/brands should I buy? Are there good internet sources for this?

  Also, I imagine that most portable hard drives are SATA now.

  Thanks a lot for any advice.

  No one answered it in 2015. Nobody knows the answer please?

  Is a 1 TB SATA HDD good for my laptop model (Satellite-L750-16Z)? Can I get a bigger car? Is SATA the right one?

• Satellite a210-171 needs new HARD drive

  I took the laptop to the computer repair shop, they want to charge me £100 to replace the HDD with a 500 GB one and reinstall windows. I am not satisfied with the service, the length of time necessary to diagnose the problem or the price then I refused to let them fix it. It took 3 days to identify the problem and more they can not even give me a quote until they had installed the new hard drive!

  Is it easy enough for me to replace the HARD drive? I don't really know where he is, than only what disk HARD buy! I have the original recovery disk, it will load everything once I have replace the HARD drive?
  I need really, really little help and advice here!

• Satellite Pro P100 - replacing the HARD drive internal

  I have a Satellite Pro P100 with a concert of 60 internal HDD and would like to replace this with a 250 or 320 GB drive.

  Anyone can suggest a way to imagery of the current drive and copy this back to the new drive without having to re - install the operating system and other installed software?

  I have a couple of USB 2.0 external drives with sufficient capacity.

  Hello

  You first need to know if the more drive HARD 250 GB or 320 GB would be compatible and if the BIOS recognize this HARD drive without major worries!
  The problem is that not all HARD drive sizes are supported by the BIOS.
  Then all first check if the new HARD drive are supported!

  You ask how to get all the files on the new disk? I recommend good reinstall the OS from the recovery CD. It would be to reinstall the OS, drivers, tools, utilities.
  If you have other files such as mp3, etc it then backup to the external USB HDD.
  Then you could connect this HARD drive to the laptop and could transfer it on the internal HARD disk.

• Satellite A100-529 and new HARD drive

  I bought a new HARD drive: Samsung HM320JI (320 GB/SATA/5400 RPM / 8 M I)
  When I turn on my laptop, it loads as 60%, and then it crashes. Why? It is not compatible?

  Satellite A100-529
  PSAA2e-01J00ZG3
  BIOS: 2.30

  What should I do?
  I formatted my new HDD using my desktop PC

  I don't understand what you mean with these 60%. 60% of what?

  In my opinion the new HARD drive should work fine with your Satellite A100.
  As Alex has already written fair use facilities for the installation of the OS recovery disk and I think everything should be OK.

• Recovery of Satellite A215 after replacing the hard drive

  I have a Satellite A215 from issues taken to a store, they said the hard drive was going wrong, they extracted the files it could.
  I replaced the concert of 80 hitachi Moose with a new concert of 500 hitachi. When I try to launch the boot disc that came with the computer it says loading windows then goes to a recovery mode and I can't function.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you

  At this point, it would be interesting to know if the same thing would happen with 100 GB HARD drive. Do you get the such or similar HDD somewhere for testing purposes?

  It's that you can't manipulate image recovery and recovery installation procedure. Either it works or not.
  To be honest, I'm a little surprised by your upgrade. I can't imagine that a small car can work with stronger engine 10 times. What do you think?

• Satellite A40 - what size of HARD drive max is possible

  This Satellite A40 has a 40 GB drive at 4200 RPM.
  Looking for 120 GB and 160 GB.

  This question is to know if I can consider a higer RPM one / or access time.

  What are the limits?

  Maurice Newsome

  Hello

  I presume that the A40 supports an IDE HDD ATA-5 controller.
  In this case the 120 GB is the max of the LBA 28 bit

  But in your case I would first test an 80 GB or 120 GB HARD drive.
