Satellite M100 recovery disk failing after loading ramdisk image

Hello world

I have a Satellite M100 (bought mid-2006), 512 MB RAM, 60 GB HDD, Intel CPU T2050.

I decided to have a cleaning and use the restore disc to return the laptop to factory settings, and then reinstall only what I really wanted.
I had this done yesterday, I had forgotten something, then he ran again about 4 hours later.
The first time that the restore worked, now it reboots once the progress bar reaches full when he says "Loading RAMDISK Image".
After the progress bar reaches full, the mouse pointer appears for a few seconds then restart the computer.

Nothing has changed with the hardware or BIOS, and what is on the HD should not have any effect because I am booting from the DVD.
Can someone please help? I am at a loss to explain what happened in this interval of 4 hours.

Thank you

Hello!

I agree with Akuma.
Sometimes I can read here on this problem and I know you should only remove the partition on the HARD disk. Therefore, you can also use a Windows XP CD from Microsoft or the FDISK utility.

After you delete all the partition, you should be able to run the recovery disk.
Check it!

Good bye

    Hello!

    I put t know which causes the problem too because I m not an expert, but sometimes I can read in the forum, you must delete all partitions before using the recovery disk.
    You can do this with the Microsoft disk for example. Just boot from it and delete all partitions. After that, restart and try to use the recovery disc.

    I put t know if it helps but you can give us feedback. :)

  • Satellite L30 recovery disk failed: could not do language input error

    I have a L30-101, which has been slow to turn on. Another forum suggested going in ms config to ensure the maximum memory used to initialize and uncheck that some elements to start. When I rebooted, windows icons have been expanded and slightly blurry, so I undid the changes I did but windows is still not clear. The laptop works well otherwise, so I recorded that restore data, I needed and tried a system, but the computer can't find any restore points.

    As a last resort, I tried the Toshiba product recovery disk which I had never used it before. He begins to read it ok, then asks for the choice of the English language. About 10 minutes later it stops with the error message "could not get a writing of the language of the INI file! Article: [Commom] key InstallCMD file D:\Setenv.ini.
    When I hit OK to clear the message the Administrator page says could not initialize the raid class no RAID-continue normally.

    When I restart the laptop it brings back me to my previous state with blurry icons, another way to work laptop and all my old data is still there.

    I have since bought a new portable Satellite L450D that I write this, but I'm eager to try to lift my L30 and working again as a spare. I contacted Toshiba UK in case there was a problem with the recovery disk, but due to licensing issues they can only redirect me to the support of EU toshiba backup site to buy a new recovery disk. As I already have a recovery disk, I don't want to buy another for the same results. Does anyone have ideas on how I could get the recovery disk to load entirely and recover my laptop to its factory settings?

    At first, I must say that you should back up all your important data to an external device like external HD or USB. When you use the recovery facilities disc all the partition is deleted.

    I don't know why you cannot use livery recovery disk, but the only thing to do is to visit nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and show the problem. If they can confirm recovery DVD is defective, I assume that you will get a new free of charge.

  • Satellite C660 - recovery disk fails error 1117

    Please can someone help. I tried to use my recovery disks to restore my laptop when it kept not start correctly. The disks did not work so I bought a set of discs from Toshiba on this Web site. I still have the same problem.

    What the failed hard drive or something else?

    If I buy a new hard drive recovery disks will work if the hard drive is not exactly the same as the one that is out?

    Hello

    Have you thought about the HARD drive?
    It could be a malfunction of the HARD drive that does not allow you to install the system.

    I recommend that you check the HARD disk for some potential problems.

    There is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test. You can use it to check the HARD drive.
    Google simply to get the software.

  • Satellite P100 - recovery disk no longer works after you start

    Hi, I tried to use the disk recovery toshiba last night and it did not work. He worked twice before.

    The laptop starts with the cd drive and says it's loading ramdisk Image. It then loads the image and request that if I want to add a SCSI controller, before I can say anything he says 'Please wait', and then restarts the computer and re-trys the previous steps.

    A that someone has experienced this problem? Can anyone offer advice?

    I hope someone can help

    Ben

    Hi Ben

    Sorry, but I'm a little confused. You wrote about Microsoft CD or DVD recovery facilities you have with your laptop?

    I ask this question because, as far as I know, by its use of origin designed Toshiba recovery image the user should not get much just recovery procedure without adding any controllers or similar stuff.

    Hello

    > all I get is a window box asking what would like to windows do you, like what you get when you insert a music disc or vid
    This means you want to use the recovery disc in Windows? It will not work.

    The point is that you must boot from the recovery disc rather Windows on the HARD drive so until the computer starts to go into the start menu and select the CD/DVD drive like device starting. Make sure that the recovery disk is in the drive and the recovery disk will start. Now follow the instructions on the screen.

    PS I never had these problems with my other laptops...

    Hello

    My friend who s a long story.

    It's not easy to say what the reason is for this, but to me it sounds like that there is something wrong with the HARD drive. In your case I would format the HARD drive before launching the recovery disc. You can do this with a Microsoft disk to format the whole HARD drive. After that try the recovery disk again.

    If it doesn't work, you should check the HARD drive with a special HARD drive diagnostic tool like Drive Fitness Test. use Google to find it, it s freeware and takes only a few minutes.

  • I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did. These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

    My computer came with Windows 7.  Recently, my hard drive failed.  I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did.  These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

    YES!

    I just did mine 01/01/2016, installed a new WD 500 GB HDD black on my laptop ASUS K52F, took my DVD 4 restore disks and restored to Win 7 Home Premium, more 10 Windows, which is sitting on my old HDD in the trash. I'll stick with my Original OEM OS and never improve to WIN 10 times.

    NOTE: The only time the restore disks do not work is when you replace your motherboard.

  • New HP HARD drive > load recovery disks > fails to start after the installation process on the press continue

    I have Pavilion d7-4165dx laptop. I saw US, that made a purchase of the United States (BestBuy).

    -HARD drive failed after renewal of antivirus software trial period.

    -All diagnoses would not recognize the HARD drive.

    -Support HP said still in warranty, but I am out of country.  HP said more was likely HARD drive cable.

    -Buy cables and a hand off USA door.

    -Installed, always the same answer.

    -Ordered the new HP's HARD drive.  Out of stock.  Finally inquiring was commissioned to a part 3rd US rep.  He recommended to buy directly from output, but higher speed.  Did this and then HP replacement HARD drive arrives.  Both outside the U.S. door hand.

    -Install the fastest (slightly smaller) Seagate 500G 7200.  Has started the recovery with discs of recovery (5 in total who received from BestBuy, but not the OEM to the research), but before the new HARD drive is smaller than the original WD 640 G 5400.   Put WD #1 Bay and Seagate in #2.

    -Start the process of disk recovery.  Any resumption of the process of the plant and on the last drive-through, it says do not touch while the PC starts on and outside, etc.  Said so press on continue continue.

    -When the press continue, simply goes to the black screen with "No boot device...". »

    -Run the other options, the same message.

    -Diagnosis of ran.  Drive HARD everything is OK.

    -Called HP support.  It says I have to buy the HP recovery discs.  Those I have (5) is not the right one, there should be only 3!  They are that I got from BestBuy, but look like they were made here when BestBuy configures the PC.

    Suggestions anyone?

    Someone has found the problem for me today...

    "Put WD #1 Bay and Seagate in #2.

  • Satellite Pro A10 recovery disks fail to reinstall Win XP

    My A10 Pro Sat operated happily running a system dual boot (XP and Mandriva) before a failure to start a day.
    I've successfully used the Toshiba recovery disks and everything was OK for a year or two before the same problem reappeared.

    Now the recovery disk Nr.1does not restores the system and the laptop turns off after appearing to run normally for about 20 seconds.

    Restore the MBR and fitness by using a recovery disk Win 98 could not solve the problem.

    Anyone has any ideas please?

    > Now the Nr.1does recovery disk does not restore the system and the laptop turns off after appearing to run normally for about 20 seconds.

    Sorry, but this sentence confuses me. What you mean under function normally? Start your laptop computer, enter BIOS settings and leave it with that. Laptop does turns off after a short time or what?

    Maybe you should explain a little better what happens when you start your laptop.

  • Re: Satellite L750D - recovery disk installer fails

    So, I bought a L750D Satellite today in a chain store.
    They had a double the RAM for free offer.
    There is no disk in the packae and when you start the laptop, it goes into windows 7 and asks if you want to install the 32-bit version or 64-bit.
    I understand that this example uses a recovery of the windows installation to install the required version.

    My problem is that it breaks down. It crashed on the first machine to which I took and it crashed on the second they gave me too much.

    Now, I tried to use the Windows 7/repair of my desktop PC Installation disk and that does not work either. A friend suggested I bring the machine, re - install the original 8 GB of RAM and then redo the installation. I suspect that this might be the problem, like rising to 16 GB might be the problem when you use a Windows restore Toshiba seems to have adopted as the ONLY way to install the OS of the computer.

    I'll try it tomorrow, but that someone has other suggestions that I desperately need to have this machine work tomorrow.

    I read a lot of discussion about this stuff all over the web, but no solution beyond buying a disk recovery tool. Seems a bit of a scam really.

    TIA.

    Hello

    First of all, I doubt that the 16 GB of RAM would be supported on this laptop.
    Then it was wrong to upgrade to 16 GB of RAM, and I guess that was the problem, why the Windows system can be installed for the first time.

    Second: the disks are not part of the package, because all laptops from Toshiba (also from other manufacturers) supports a recovery system. Means that you must create a clean recovery disk if you buy the laptop. There is a Toshiba Recovery Media Creator called tool that creates the recovery disk.

    I'm not sure if the recovery files would be still available on disk HARD because you said that you tried to install win 7 using a disc belonging to your desktop PC, so eventually the recovery files are now removed.

    However, check if it is possible:
