I think that the installation of Win XP formatted the HARD drive and erased the HARD disk partition and so you will not be able to recover the laptop using the HDD recovery procedure.
Even if the second partition has not been deleted, you will not be able to choose the HARD drive recovery because the advanced settings will not appear allowing you to start the HARD drive recovery.

However, you can try to press F8 at the beginning and can check if the advanced settings appears. If they will not appear then you may not use HARD drive recovery.

In this case, you will need to order the recovery disk Toshiba from here:

    Hello

    _How to use the recovery disk? _
    That s pretty easy: insert the diskette and boot from it that s all!
    In addition, you will need to follow the instructions on the screen and make a few clicks, but that s really all!

    _How to save files? _
    First of all I m asking you ask for it. You didn't make a backup yet? What do you do if your HARD disk down the next morning?

    In any case, the Toshiba recovery disc erase your entire HARD drive. This means that you must back up your files to an additional disk. Everything on the drive HARD internal will be deleted.

    You don t want to use an external HARD drive? Why?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    The SSD could be seen in the disk management window, and you could name and set up as another hard drive internal. To create a partition or volume on a hard disk, you must be logged in as an administrator, and there must be unallocated disk space or free space in an extended hard disk partition. To repartition your hard drive, please consult the following link and check if it helps.

  • Satellite C650D: How can I create partitions?

    Hellooo

    can someone help me?
    I have laptop Toshiba Satellite C650D when I bought it, there is only one partition of hard disk, I want another 2 or 3 partitions it how can I do it?

    Hello

    You can create partitions in Win 7 disk management.

    Firstly, it must reduce the old partition. You will then get a free space on the HARD drive where the new partitions may be created.
    The entire procedure is very delicate. Further details on the Microsoft Win 7 page:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/fr-FR/Windows-Vista/create-and-format-a-hard-disk-partition

    I hope this helps a little.

    But before you change this, I recommend creating a recovery disk!

  • Satellite A300 - how to start HARD drive recovery after own OS insatallation

    Hi guys.

    I have a question.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300, which came with Windows Vista.
    Normally I have the recovery with the normally pre-installed utility partition.
    After that I formatted the system partition, I installed a clean and fresh Windows 7 copy.

    My question is this.
    Since the recovery partition does not get soiled with, is there not a way to install the disk recovery utility hard back in recovery of Windows of F8 before the boot options?

    Please don't tell me that I need to have the recovery disk.
    I already did, I just want to find a solution because it is not that hard for someone who accidentally formatted the system partition and had not created the disks, but the recovery partition. My guess is to do some modifications in the files of the Windows recovery environment that are launched when you use the option to repair my computer at startup, because normally, HARD drive recovery utility appears as one of its tools-options.

    The problem is that I don't have to where these files are, maybe (C:\boot?)
    Currently, I am trying to see if a facility upgrade of windows 7 on windows vista will keep options for hard drive recovery then maybe I will find what it takes.

    All suggestions are welcome!
    Thank you for your time.

    OK, just a hint more, I found what is happening with the recovery environment, and which must be replaced to include more tools...
