Satellite M70 - cannot install recovery disc

Hello

I had to remove the drive HARD Toshiba Satellite M70 for use on my Compaq laptop (Compaq HDD crashed). I had to install XP and other stuff after you have 2 left and used with a Compaq laptop with no problems. Now, I had a new HARD drive for compaq and fixed the Toshiba HDD back in.

Using the recovery CD I wanted to restore the Toshiba to its original state.

I have the recovery DVD-ROM product. F12 abd selection cd/dvd would not recovery.
Error loading operating system is the message I get.

I can even install with my other XP pro original cd.

Once I put the HARD return drive to Compaq its job very well, I can even install XP.

What is the cause. Is that it has nothing to do with the MBR?
I am very familiar with computers so please give me a way out of this!

Thank you all,.

Kind regards

Hello

In my opinion, the case is clear. If you install the laptop with a normal installation of Microsoft disk and the HARD disk works fine in another computer it something wrong with the Toshiba Recovery disk, maybe it s scratched.

What you can do is to install the laptop using the disc of Microsoft. Then download and install all the drivers from the Toshiba site.

Alternative order you a new drive for recovery of an authorized service provider.

It of your choice what you do. ;)

    Hi - I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 PSAC1E-04H00VEN model number

    It was less his hard drive and I posted previously to try a 160 GB drive without success. I thought that the drive may be defective, so I have now acquired a 120 GB drive. It is not new, but assured me that it works. However, it does not work in this laptop! As before (with the disk 160), when I try to install it using the Toshiba restore disc, the operation just sticks on the "Please wait..." message. "for 30 minutes then the machine shuts down. Assuming that the hard drive is ok there at - it something more, that I can do to determine the problem with this laptop?

    FYI, this is what happens after installing the hard drive:
    I turn it on and get this message: NTLDR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart.
    I insert the product recovery disc, put off and then again when you press F12.
    I get a soft Purring over the Toshiba logo. I select the CD/DVD symbol and get a short message saying: the installer inspects the hardware configuration of your computer.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Thank you.

    Hi Lapitup,

    Before you buy another HARD drive, you need to test a different installation disk you have already tried the two hard disks with the same problem so I think that the problem is not HARD drive itself

    If you have a normal installation disc of Windows, you can install Windows on this drive. So you can check if the recovery disk works properly or not. Theoretically, the disc could be wiped off so that the files cannot be read properly.

    In the worst cases, some of the material is affected. Then, you need professional help of an authorized service provider.

  • Satellite A100: Cannot install recovery after having deleted the Ubuntu partition

    Hello friends,

    I have the Satellite A 100. I was using dual OS - windows vista home edition and Ubuntu. Now I wanted to remove Ubuntu and so I did the stupidest thing - directly delete the partition with Ubuntu which had the GRUB files. Then to the laptop computer restart of course the Grub bootloader wasn't there and if the computer is not started or load any OS. Then I thought that I will reinstall Vista with product recovery CD but the progress reached at 2% and then I keep getting error 1117 a failure to read. I tried so many times without success. I even tried to install XP, but it says Intel boot agent cannot make connection. And it also fails.

    Please help to reinstall Vista or XP. I'm really stuck and I learned a lesson not to tinker in mobile when it isn't those of Cup of tea!
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    > Now if I download EasyBCD how would I be able to run it or how should I use it?
    You will not be able to run EasyBCD because you are not able to boot Vista.
    EasyBCD can be installed only in Vista and will allow you to change the Vista Boot Manager.

    I think you need to format the entire disk HARD again should erase all partitions and must attempt to reinstall Vista.

    I recommend using a free tool called GParted LiveCD. Google for what it helps format the HARD drive!

  • Satellite P300-220 - cannot run Recovery Disc Creator

    Hello

    Yesterday I received my new laptop (Satellite P300-220). Today, I'm trying to make a record of recovery and launch "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator", the hourglass appears for 3 or 4 seconds but nothing else, cannot access the application.
    Any idea?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Do you have something to change on the laptop before you start the Toshiba Recovery disk?

    It's not easy to say which is the reason, but in your case I would start the recovery of HARD drive option. Go to the advanced boot menu, select fix my computer.

  • Cannot install recovery image on satellite Pro P300-1EX

    Hello.

    I have never had many problems with a single laptop in my lifetime of work. I'm almost ready to throw this thing out the window. I have a satellite pro p300-1EX.

    I wanted to do an install new os just to make things a bit faster for the customer, it was 8 hours ago.

    First, I installed a Home Windows OEM pre 32B version. Then I saw that the CD would not work.

    So, Okay - I'll bring back factory default:

    (1) there is no link repair starting and pressing F8
    (2) there is no HARD drive untilty when you press 0 - that does nothing
    (3) there is no recovery console, by putting in an OEM version of windows vista
    (4) I try to download recovery disk creator bloody software and get this - it does not work. It creates a shortcut to a file that's not here yet. TRDCLcher.exe, can you, im speechless.

    So now, I have to spend £30 of my own money by obtaining a disc sent to me? I don't think so.

    So, what can I please? It was a horrible experience. Nothing works. The recovery partition, I see is still in tact, it's just like the laptop doesn't recognize it. Instealing the OEM deleted all tools by default, but I can't NOT THE DOWNLOAD.

    Please, please help me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Maybe it sounds stupid now, but this is simply.

    Here's my explanation of how it works:
    Almost 4 or 5 years Toshiba offers laptops without recovery DVD but with recovery image stored on the HARD drive. As much I know about former Satellite/Satellite Pro P300 recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder named HDDRecvery. This model laptop was shipped with Windows Vista.

    As you know original recovery image can be installed n in two ways:
    -You can use the recovery HARD drive installation method - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    -You can use the created recovery DVD disk

    HARD drive recovery facility can be made if the laptop has only factory settings. In this case in advanced startup options (F8), you will have the option to fix my computer. If the notebk has been installed with the version of the OS or any other operating system of this option won't be available more. Because of this Toshiba has preinstalled reminder with the message for owners of laptops create recovery DVDs.

    Your questions:
    > There is no link repair starting and pressing F8
    If this laptop doesn t have to factory settings it will not appear in the advanced startup options
    > There is no HARD drive untilty when you press 0 - that does nothing
    If you have European book this model with zero will not work. It only works with the United States and Austraian mobile.
    > There is no recovery console, by putting in an OEM version of windows vista
    I put t understand it. What happens when you start with the OEM version?
    > I am trying to download bloody recovery disc creator software
    If you have the European model of laptop, it can not be downloaded. This piece of software is included in the recovery image only.

    > So now I have to spend £30 of my own money by obtaining a disc sent to me
    I understand, but at least with the original recovery DVD you can install OS and all necessary things in an hour only.
    > The recovery partition, I see is still in tact, it's just like the laptop doesn't recognize it.
    Yes. Without factory settings you will not have access to these data.

    Follow these steps:
    -start your laptop and press F2 to enter the BIOS settings
    -set the BIOS to default settings and reboot the laptop
    -When the laptop reboots press F12 to get into the boot meny
    -When the boot menu appears on the screen put the original DVD of recovery in ODD
    -Choose the CD/DVD drive on the list and press ENTER
    This will force it's STRANGE to be the first boot device and you should see process on the loading screen. Click next or OK nothing change and wait for the recovery procedure starts.

    Please try it and let me know exactly what is happening.

  • Cannot install recovery image on Satellite C660

    Hello
    I tried to restore a Satellite C660 factory settings because it be extremely slow to start.

    Using the original Toshiba recovery disks the process gets to half way through and then gives the following messages...

    Error restoring image
    The device is not ready

    ERROR: ImageX could not be Win7 V:\HDDRecovery\SWImg\15489XSP.swm Index 2 HARD C: drive!

    If someone can advise?
    Thank you

    Unfortunately there is no workaround to force the recovery image installation runs correctly.
    All you can do right now is to set the BIOS to default settings and use the drive recovery again.
    Make sure that the disc is clean.

    Do you use the recovery disc for the first time?

  • Cannot install Recovery on replacement discs card mother p7 - 1017c

    I had a mother fail on me. At first, I thought it was the operating system, but after trying the recovery discs I ordered at HP, I thought it was my motherboard.  I thought I could replace it with the same. Bought the same exact motherboard from Ascendtech. I installed the Board of Directors. Then I inserted the recovery disk and got the following error message. "This computer does not support the system recovery media. You are not able to restore the system with the media". Called HP support and they basically said that I have to take the PC to an authorized service center, so they can program the new motherboard at the cost of about $200 the representative told me. I'll have to buy another copy of Windows 7? And it will install on the new motherboard. (Representative of HP was that it wouldn't) Help, please!

    Hello

    You should be able to buy cheaper Windows 7 (called OEM version) with a new motherboard OR download Windows 7 and use the product key on your computer to install. You must contact Microsoft to activate after that. Please use the following link to download:

  • Cannot install recovery image on Satellite C650D

    Hello

    I have a C650D who fell just out of warranty and died on me. I did the recovery discs to purchase then thought that it would be a simple matter to use and I would be able to use the laptop again... seems I was mistaken :(

    I tried the F8 key at startup to option and all I get is the following message is displayed:
    No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key.

    I inserted the recovery disk and after an amount of noise from the hard drive and windows message takes over the files then I got a box asking me to choose the language I wanted, followed by an error message that there is something missing... I don't have the time to write down full seizure quit on me. After trying to load (incase there was something wrong with the first attempt) get the windows loading page then nothing...

    Can someone tell me what I need to do to fix this please?

    Thanks in advance

    > No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key.
    I fear this message has something to do with Mr. HARD disk HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?

    If so, the value please BIOS to the default settings and use recovery DVD again.

    By the way: you can see the language option, but you can not choose another language than the original language, you got with your laptop. In other words if you have BONES of the Spain, you can't choose another language. You have only BONE on the Spain.

  • Satellite M70 cannot stop

    I bought my Satellite M70 in February 2007. It had been nice up to a weeks ago. I can't stop normally again.
    He can't even switch to standby or Hibernate mode. It crashes with blue screen. The cursor moves on the screen but nothing else does not work once the blue screen appears.

    The only option that remains for me is to press the power button to turn off. It works normally if started again, but will not stop. I have a lot of data on it, so I don't want to use the recovery CD. Pls how to fix SAT without reformatting. Thank you

    Hello Bob

    None of us can say for sure why this happens, and you can't wait for a magic solution. What we do here, it's just to speculate why this happen. In my opinion, a background program block system and used to stop. Who knows what applications you have installed in the past few months, but I'm sure one of them is responsible for this.

    If possible, save all your data to external HARD disk or a second partition. Use the installation in expert mode and install the recovery image on the partition c. after installation of clean operating system everything works OK again.

    If you don't want to do it try to remove all the latest applications installed and make your system clean. I also recommend you use a registry cleaner application. You can find many of them on the net.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L500D PSLK0A Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator does not work properly

    Hello

    I am trying to create a recovery for my Toshiba Satellite L500D PSLK0A-00U009 disc.
    When I run the Recovery Disc Creator he starts to open then it comes up with a box with an exclamation point, he says: 'cannot open target partition. Then the recovery disc creator will open. It seems normal, then when I insert a CD for the process seems to work then it says error and stop and ejects the CD, the error is that the code is: 0E01B5-26-510444 D 9

    I already uninstalled and then program then reinstalled with the help of a download from the Web MyToshiba site and this has not fixed the problem.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    Have you tried different discs from different manufacturers?
    How about you, USB flash memory usage? AFAIK, you can create a bootable Recovery USB flash stick too.

  • Satellite L350 - cannot install Vista and how can I backup my data?

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite L350 and recently I installed Vista Home Premium in another language (the OEM Vista was in English) in the hope I could activate it with the OEM key, but I did not.

    When I tried to re - install the Vista OEM of WinRE I realized I can't access it, and then I got a "brilliant" idea that will format the C partition with Acronis Disk Director he could boot to WinRE. There can be no.

    Fortunately, I have burned before recovery disks. The only problem is that the whole HARD disc recovery disc formats and I have data on the second partition that I would like to recover.

    I tried to install Vista retail again to save the data of the second partition (Yes, I'm a fool, I did not before) but it stops after the first reboot. I get a black screen with an underscore will blink.

    I really need that data, please help!

    Hello!

    I can tell you why you can t install a version of Vista with product key. It's pretty easy because the button on the lower side on the laptop belongs to the preinstalled OEM version and t can be used by a commercial version.

    However, I think the best way to back up your data would be that you put the HARD drive in an external HARD drive enclosure, and then you can back up your data on another PC or laptop.
    These cases of disc HARD external are cheap but very useful.
