Satellite L500D - number of reboots during recovery?

Bought a factory sale Toshiba Satellite L500D. I recovered by following the instructions on the Toshiba support pages. My question is, * how many times restart the laptop during installation drivers.*

So far, it has restarted a dozen times. I wiil be left on all night, I hope it's just reboot after each driver, not stuck in a loop.

Hi shr3k,

Don t forget that during the process of recovery of all drivers and tools will install automatically makes your laptop ready to use after this process. No drivers or tools, you need to install yourself after that.

From my own experience, I can say that installing recovery takes a long time that s right but it s normal behavior. So don t you worry about this, a coffee or do something else. After that, your laptop should be completed (wait 1-2 hours).

  • Satellite L500D - can only burn the recovery of 1st and 2nd disc

    I bought this 2nd hand computer laptop in the last two days with the factory default reset. However, I could only burn the 1st recovery disc 2 of 4 using Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator.

    I am running Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit. I started at F8 factory reset "out of the box" settings that went well. I did where there was a small problem when the previous owner restored to factory settings.

    As he had SP1, I installed SP2. I upgraded the BIOS to 1.1 to 1.4, the latest. I also installed the latest version of Recovery Disc Creator for L500D, after uninstalling the old version.

    I changed to another brand of DVD blank. I have checked and unchecked "Verify" in the Recovery Disc Creator. I also have the latest installed version of the Toshiba disc Creator software. I tried to burn discs 3 & 4 separately overall

    I get no error message, just as the taskbar progress 3rd disc ends never quite at the end. The former owner has never created a set of the factory restore disks. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

  • Satellite P770 system turns off during recovery

    I am the owner of a Satellite P770 and during the recovery, the device turns off to 'Performance testing' stage. It has everything installed and I managed to stop the recovery process.

    It looks like there some cosmetic minor things, that he has not completed, but I always get the opening screen saying its completion with the first start of time.

    I went into the performance tests of Win7 and it does the same thing, instantly turns the machine.

    I really need help!

  • Satellite Pro P100 spontaneously reboot during game sessions

    Hey, I'm having a recurring problem with my new P100 (5 months). Whenever I try to play some games, usually requiring a configuration relatively high, my phone will just freeze and reboot. The laptop has enough power to play these games, but it freezes and restarts anyway. It doesn't happen instantly, but can occur at any time, I was wondering if there was a reason that I don't give me any error message.

    Does anyone have any advice as to what I should do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I guess you get a BSOD, but you can not read the error message.

    Please follow this path and disable automatically restart.

    Control Panel System Advanced tab settings in the start menu upwards and the recovery area.
    There, you must disable the option automatically restart in the area of system failure.

    If this option is disabled if you will be able to read the error message.
    Maybe then we can say something more about the error.

    However, sometimes the unit may freezes due to the high temperature.
    I think the CPU and graphics card works with a maximum yield and produce a lot of heat. Check the cooling module if it works properly.
    Don't forget that you have enough space around the laptop because of the circulation air.

  • Satellite C850D - error 10-FC12_045D during recovery to factory settings

    Hello

    I own a C850D satellite with Win7 64-bit, and for several days, the system became extremely slow and inadmissible. I first thought of a virus so I started it in integrated security mode and running antivirus (MS security essentials), another analysis has been made to a live CD antivirus Kapersky but no virus was detected.

    I took the decision to restore the whole system parameters according to the instructions of the user manual, and the restore process will fail with an error 10-FC12-045D.

    I suspect that the cause is a faulty hard drive. 2 quesntions:

    1. can anyone confirm this diagnosis? Should I seek other ways to diagnose a hardware problem on this laptop?
    2 - if it is confirmed that the HARD drive is broken, as I suspect, what is the process to get a new one and reinstall the OS Win7 to factory settings? I don't have any recovery media.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Yves.

    Hello

    If your laptop still has factory settings follow the user s manuals recommendation and create recovery discs. Test you like these discs and try to install the recovery image. If the same problem occurs again and again I m afraid HDD can be the troublemaker.

    I put t know if the warranty is still valid, but I recommend you to contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. Addresses and phone numbers, you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  • How can I access the recovery on my Satellite L500D-00F partition?

    Hi, I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L500D-00F delivered with Windows 7 Home Premium and my OS is not working properly so I need to boot from the recovery partition, but I can't find a way to do...

    =============
    FULL ARTICLE: P
    =============

    The first startup launched the hidden restore partition and I followed the procedure to install the OS of the computer.

    At one point he asked me if I wanted to 32-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows 7, so I choose the default option (32 bit) because I couldn't find anywhere in the specifications of L500D of the merchant that is was a 64-bit processor.

    After the installation of the computer, it started Windows 7 properly and I could hear the startup sound, see my office for a second and the screen went black, nothing worked at all and I discovered that my computer was actually a unit of 64-bit, so that is probably why the video driver does not work properly, I guess. Whenever I start my laptop, I see my desktop for a second then it goes black and crashes like this.

    ====================
    END OF THE STORY: P
    ====================

    In any case... I want to restart this recovery partition and reinstall my operating system using the 64-bit version.

    How can I boot from the recovery partition on my L500D-00F... AND PLEASE don't tell me to hit F8 during the startup, I already tried this and NO I don't have a "Repair" option The first is 'Safe mode' and there is no option 'Fix' or 'retrieve '.

    Also, in Windows Disk Manager (that I can use in some way when I boot in safe mode) I see two hidden partitions, a 10 GB and a 1.5 GB, so I KNOW they are there, I did not delete them and they should be intact.

    Any help is appreciated, but don't tell me to hit F8 when starting, this has already been tried: P

    Thanks for the comments.
    On this forum, that we have already talked about this and of course access to the data recovery is not the same for all models of laptop. F8 method is for example for models Europeans and several people from the Australia or even Canada reported on the use of the 0 button.

    In any case, I'm happy to know that everything is going well.

    Good bye

  • Installation of recovery image on Satellite L500D

    Am trying to re - install windows 7 on Satellite L500D. I'm having all kinds of problems with the computer because it has been infected by malware or viruses, don't know that. I have already backed up all my documents, photos and files pst on an external hard drive.

    I press '0' when the power and then got the following options.

    First option is 32 or 64 bits,
    I chose 32 that the vehicle has currently 32-bit installed.
    Warns next option, I selected Yes.
    Next option is factory default software recovery (Recover State out-of-the-box). or erase the hard drive, I chose the default settings restoring.
    Then there's 3 options,
    1 recovery of out-of-the-box-state (System Recovery Options include).
    2. recovery without changing hard drive partitions, or
    3. recover to custom size partition. I thought I chose Option 1, but it shows all partitions will be deleted and you will lose all data on the hard drive.

    This means that I will delete the windows installs partition?
    Choose option 2?
    Option 2 says "the first partition is deleted and you will lose all data on the partition. I am thinking 2 option?

    On a separate issue, I could install the 64 bit version of Windows, if so it would be an advantage?

    Hello

    Please check it and I hope you find al the info you need there. I always use Recovery option out-of-box state > system recovery options are included.

    Your system is infected of course and you have to complete resettlement in order to not make this so complicated. Back up all your data and install recovery image using option 1. No matter what will be removed and what not. Drive HARD integer should be cleaned.

    I recommend you to use the version of 64-bit operating system.

  • Satellite L500D - 16L - no disk recovery Windows 7 64 bit included

    Hi all

    I'm curious... I bought this laptop a while a go and was browsing the Web from Toshiba site and it says that this laptop should have Windows 64 bit on it. I thought just is it possible to install my own copy of Windows? Usually I'm stuck sort of encrypted messages as this copy of Windows may not be installed on this laptop or something or where can I get an official copy of windows which must go with this laptop?

    Hi whipser1,

    I checked the specs on the site Web of Toshiba Satellite L500D - 16L and 64-bit Windows 7 is pre-installed, but you can also get a recovery with Windows 7 32 bit disc.

    So what version of Windows 7 is currently installed?

    If Windows 7 64 bit is installed you can create the recovery disc yourself for the 64-bit version. Therefore, to start the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator and follow the instructions on the screen. You just need a few blank DVDs to create the disks I recommend DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK media.

  • Satellite L500D: 64 bit Win recovery disk is 32-bit - can I restore 64-bit?

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite L500D, which has Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit.
    I have the recovery CD is 32-bit, however, and I need to reinstall Windows.

    I'm assuming that this drive can install the 32-bit version and does not give you the option - if after installation, is there always a partition on the HARD drive for the 64 bit version?

    If possible, I want to continue to use the 64-bit edition.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Did you create this disc using the Toshiba Recovery Media creator?

    If so, then the pre-installed Win 64 bit should be part of the image that you created using this software.

    Generally, when booting, you should get the option where you could choose between 63 bits and 32 bits of the system.

  • Satellite P500 - loop of reboot after using the Toshiba Recovery disk

    Hello

    I have a problem recovery SATELLITE P500. I did the recovery disks. It starts ok on the recovery disk and format the hard drive and copy the disks to the hard drive. Then, he begins installing windows and restarts.

    He then goes to a loop
    (1) marketing and says "Setup is preparing your computer for first use.
    (2) Toshiba banner saying please wait... Second installation may take several minutes. Pleae do not interrupt or shut down the computer!
    (3) Windows logo
    (4) close...
    (5) restarts and goes to 1)

    It would be great if someone could help me with this.

    Thank you very much
    Softari

    Hello

    I noticed the same thing on my Satellite P500, but I must say it s not a problem, it of quite normal. The computer will restart several times (10 times or more) to complete the installation.

    You know that a lot of drivers/tools will be installed and some restart is required to configure everything properly.

    So don t interrupt the installation of recovery, just wait a little longer and a coffee. Everything is done automatically and your laptop is reinstalled with the factory settings. :)

  • Satellite L500D - can't get optical to work reliably drive

    HI again users Toshiba.

    Since I got my Satellite L500D I had a problem with TSST corpCD/DVGW TS - L633C ODD. I run 3 OS (Tri-Boot) and all have the same number, so, even though I have updated the firmware to version TO02, I can't get this drive to work reliably. From time to time it will "play" DVD / CD, but not more often.

    Basically, when I put a DVD or CD, the drive makes a sound of "hunting" and nothing else happens.

    I've been on several tracks of high-low registry settings, operating system specific upgrade and tonight an update of the firmware.

    Because etiquette programs that I use on this system I can't abandon this unit some 'tech boutique', even if there was a local.

    I am technician qualified in the field of electronics and electric, but have not been exposed to the functioning of such a DVD player so advice here before that I put on the classware magnifying and opt for a quick glance.

    My problem, what are looking for?

    Suggestions anyone?

    Hello

    What Satellite L500D you exactly (L500D-xxx)?
    If you have downloaded TO02 Toshiba support and download page?

    To be honest I n don't know what can be the problem, but you can remove the existing HARD drive, put the other HARD disk, install OS using the Toshiba recovery image (I hope that you created the recovery DVDs) and test the functionality of the BIZARRE with own OS pre-installed (factory State).

    If the problem persists perhaps you should contact Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. They can check ODD and replace if necessary.

    Hello

    On this virtual path, it is not possible to say with certainty what can be the problem.
    I put t know what that service with your laptop, but if you still have this problem and still best option for you is to check the functionality with the settings.

    In other words, all your data backup and install the operating system using Toshiba original image DVD or recovery recovery if you have a. Believe me this is the best thing you can do about it.
