Satellite M60-170: Question on partition Express Media Player

Hello

I want to install Linux on a Satellite M60-170 (thus transforming part of NTFS partitions in other systems of files) without erasing/reformatting the Partition of Express built-in Media Player.

I don't see 2 Partitions using Partition Magic 8, predefined Microsoft (NTFS) 37 GB each on the hard drive of 80 GB.
I read on the forum that the Express Media Player is a T88 204 MB partition system.
How to see where this partition is located or do you know where it should be?

(Partition Magic reported an error right after the end of the 1st partition, sector 7815624; the 2nd NTFS(1st extended) begins at the 78156288 sector: I expect that the Express media Player is a 2nd primary partition located between 2 NTFS partitions, but I would be sure.)

Thank you in advance,
Bruno

Hello

I m not 100% sure, but I think that the Media Express hidden partition is placed at the end of the hard drive.
I found information that the disk HARD should at least 150-200 MB of free space must be available.
This free space must be on the end of the HARD drive and there must be unallocated.
To get these free places on party products 3rd HARD drive must be used.

You should also consult this useful document on the Express Media Player installation.

  • Satellite U205-S5002: cannot retrieve the Express Media Player after upgrading the HARD drive

    So I bought just a new Toshiba Satellite U205-S5002 I love it. One of the great features that interest me was the Express Media Player feature.

    My first step was to upgrade the hard disk and 160 GB and 2 GB ram.
    I placed the disk and ram in my old laptop and sold it.

    Before that I did, I made a copy ghosts and ghost of the hard drive to the new drive. Well come to find out...

    Toshiba is not provided with this software preinstalled, so I followed the instructions to burn my recovery disk Express Media Player and the boot on the new disk.
    So this is where the saga begins...

    After 15-20 seconds, I get a soothing blue screen (NOT of blue BSOD you mind) who says:

    /!\
    An error occurred during the recovery of "Express Media Player".
    -------------------------------------------------------
    Please pick up the image again from the beginning.
    Press any key to exit.

    It is typed exactly as it is on the screen. So, I see some other forums saying: you must have the free space of the disk so I resize the partition that allows 200 MB of space. Always the same... then try 2 GB even... then the 50 GB, same problem...

    OK, so obviously not a question of space. I read while I might need to erase the drive... so I delete the partition, this same error... then I run the recovery disk and tell him to wipe the drive, wait 1 1/2 hour, it ends. No dice! So I decide... ok... Well lets try another disk... I have restored my ghost image... and burned the image again... same question... so I decide to the recovery disk and I'll try to reinstall windows in the factory and make a record...

    Well, it does not work as well as you think... the image is incomplete... windows works fine... but the c:\Toshiba\ExpressMediaPlayer folder is empty!

    I'm happy that I have ghosts my original directory. But I decide allows to Express Media Player a shot more now that I have restored to factory... always the same error... I then decide a trial more... I'll erase drive 1.5 hours, I'll restore from toshiba dvd provided but leaving plenty of space at the end 2 GB (I have a lot about people who tell you to base just around 200 MB)

    5 hours later... moment of truth... Well Yes you guessed it... I don't know anything else to try... I have a bad image?
    You need one that I can download what has worked for them for sure? Or have - I have completely found myself by replacing the HDD with after market and which is originally a kind of compatibility issue?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    It s a great story!
    I put t know how to start so maybe first some info on the Express media player.

    As you said, and has already proposed the Express media player has been preinstalled on the second partition.
    If you want to install this media Express on the HARD disk drive, 150-200 MB of free space must be available. This free space must be on the end of the HARD drive and there must be unallocated.
    To get these free space on the HARD disk, 3 third-party products should be used as for example the Partitions Magic 8!

    I'm not going to write a story how to recover the Express media player because Toshiba has already created useful documents, which described complete installation!
    I found these documents in the knowledge base of computer Toshiba:

  • Satellite A100-906: Express Media Player does not create the c partition

    I recently bought the Satellite A100-906 model and I would like to make a partition to save the data, but the already existing partition with the reader of the Express does not allow part C: partitioning.

    If I delete the partition Express I'll be able to install it after I divide the part C: or I have to choose between separation and the Media Player?

    In my opinion it should work, but you must create the Express Media Player partition with the same size as the old.

    PS: Do you know the Partitions Magic 8? This software allows you to create partitions while Windows is running. It's a great tool

  • Satellite M60: Express Media Player change the keyboard language

    Hi, I have a Sattelite M60 & ran the Express Media Player before fully reading the manual. After reading the manual, I notice that I put the keyboard language for eng1 Express Media Player, now which is US format (rather than UK eng2). However, the options for change that are grayed out in the page options. Is it possible to activate these or change the setting of any other way?

    Is it really a problem to the Express Media Player for US instead of the language of the UK keyboard? Using the restore CD is not an option, because I've completely implemented my system now.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I put t have a lot of experience in the Media Express drive but I guess that this setting, you can change at the beginning.
    Unfortunately, in this case you need to reinstall the EMP.
    I don t think that there is another possibility.

  • Strange problem with Toshiba Express Media Player on Satellite M115-S3094

    I am facing a strange problem in my Toshiba M115-S3094, which has been pre-installed with Windows XP Media Center edition and which also had the Toshiba Express Media Player.

    I had already done a clean install of Vista on it, and then I decided to go back to XP with my recovery DVDs. I did the same procedures of first installation Express Media Player to backup (that I did when I bought the laptop) and then installing Windows XP DVD de Toshiba Recovery XP.

    The steps included:
    1 deleted recovery Express media player disk partitions
    2. installed express media player
    3 extracted Xp Recovery DVD, by selecting 'Recover without changing the Partitions' (there is no expert mode)

    Everything was fine (i.e. installation)... But now, after the turning off my laptop I press the Express Media Center button, the logo "Express Media Player" appears on the screen after loading of closures of laptop for 5 seconds.

    I tried to open it again and again, but the logo is displayed for 5 seconds and then my laptop stop...

    Laptop works fine when I connect to windows by pressing the power button / stop.

    Can someone help me on this strange question... ?

    Hello

    The whole story is a bit confusing
    First of all, I would like to know if your laptop is already preinstalled with the Media Express Player and if you were able to use it on your laptop in the past.

    Now something about the Express Media Player installation;
    In order to use the media functions Express the Mediaplayer Express Recovery CD must be performed before performing the recovery from the recovery DVD-ROM products.

    In addition, on the HARD drive should at least 150-200 MB of free space available.
    This free space must be on the end of the HARD drive and there must be unallocated. To get these free space on party products 3rd HARD drive should be used as Partitions Magic 8.

    I m not 100% sure that on error ID system badly but maybe it corresponds to the DMI evil information stored on the motherboard. If we're not DMI, you will not be able to reinstall Express Media player using the recovery media express CD.
    In the DMI must be set properly the manufacturing: Toshiba, product name: for example by Satellite M115-S30

  • Can I use Express Media Player on Satellite Pro M70 delivered without it?

    Hello world

    I have a portable Satellite Pro M70 which has not been installed with Express Media Player. In addition, my recovery CD too are not the Express Media Player software on it. Is there a way I can download this Express Media Player and even install on my laptop. If so can someone let me have this link download and any other procedure for doing the same thing.

    Thank you
    Marzi

    I put t agree with the user above.
    Microsoft Windows player is not the same as the Express Media Player, which is sometimes delivered with Toshiba laptops.
    As far as I know, this software cannot be downloaded and it s version an OEM if it s preinstalled on your laptop.
    In this forum, you will find some comments on this topic.
    To my knowledge, you cannot obtain and order the CD of Express Media Player if this application has not been delivered with your laptop.

  • Express Media Player stopped working after Windows recovery with partition

    Hi people

    I'm new to this forum. We hope to get some tips on your part I recently got a laptop A100. It comes with the Media of Express Player (EMP) installed. Given that my HARD drive is 160 GB, I need to make a few partition to protect my data should WinXP crashes and needed recovery. I used Toshiba Windows restore CD to restore windows to a 40 GB partition and set up the other as an extended partition. This is the final State of my laptop after that.
    C: 40GB (contains WinXP)
    D: ~ 108 GB (for my data)
    I can see an unknown partition of ~ 250 MB, which is for EMP. I turned off my PC and turn it on using the button of the EMP. It did not work! EMP does not start. Can you guys advise? Anyone tried the partition their HARD drive and for the EMP to work?

    Hello

    Usually, if you want to use the functions of player Media Express that the Mediaplayer Express Recovery CD should be performed before performing recovery of recovery, DVD-ROM.

    You know you can't run Express Media player after performing a recovery!

    But it seems that you have not formatted the disk around and packed only the extra partition. Eventually, you n t need to reinstall the drive Media Express.

    I studied a little more on the technical knowledge of Toshiba and found this:

  • Satellite Pro M70-273: feature of the Express Media Player feature

    Two weeks ago, I bought a Pro Satellite Toshiba M70-273 'Limited Edition' (?). The model number is PSM76E-00J00QDU, SPM76, model name, production date 2006-02-21. According to the specs I found in the online user manual or in a folder with the publication references
    «TEG October 2005, art.» N0. DSSSPM70 10/05NLBE', there is a 'Express media feature' 'on some selected models "...

    It is not clear if yes or no, the model that I bought it. I have an of CD/DVD "button that I use to run my built-in dvd player (WinDVD for example), but it does not work as it appears as 'a disc standalone player' who plays a dvd (movie) without the need of Windows startup.

    To watch the movie on dvd, after using the CD/DVD button, I start in Windows, the connection in Windows XP, and the office at startup, the WinDVD screen presents the film.

    This isn't what I expect from a stand-alone dvd player. My old laptop has a 'dj function' with which you can play a cd without booting in Windows (or turning on the laptop), simply by pressing a special button on the front. What about the promised feature of the Toshiba Satellite Pro?

    Is there a feature "Express Media Player" at all? How can I check if the function is provided? I used the provided configuration, the first time I used my laptop. I don't want to use the recovery CD provided unless it would be absolutely necessary to install this missing functionality.

    Hello

    Yes. Some Toshiba models use a player Qosmio (Qosmio units) and some computers laptop Toshiba supports also the Media Express Player.

    I downloaded the user manual of the Satellite Pro M70 and it seems that some laptop computers in this series come with the express media player. But unfortunately the Media Express drive was not installed and delivered with this laptop.

  • Satellite A105-S2101 - can't watch DVDs with Express Media Player

    I have this laptop Satellite A105-S2101, and the LCD breathed on me in two years.

    Fortunately, I can still use the VGA and S-video output but it may as well be a desktop PC now. Anyway, I just wanted to add that because of this problem, no longer is I can watch DVDs with Express Media Player because it will not accept VGA or S-video as default is just my broken - up, good for nothing always blurry LCD anyway.
    It's only when I'm in Windows mode can I switch to an external monitor.

    The reason I'm writing is, if it is necessary to add anything to an EMP update - this is the time and it would be something to add. What the devil?

    Have you tried another player?
    I prefer the VLC media player. He plays the most video and audio files, it s freeware and easy to use. Check it!

    Have you changed something on your hardware or software configuration before this happened?
    Maybe it's time to reinstall the drive Media Express
