Satellite Pro L650 - 1 CG-corrupted HARD disk

Hello

My laptop for a few years and my hard drive just died. Bought a new hard drive and all is well... except that I have never created a recovery DVD (I know, stupid, won't make the same mistake even once).

The laptop came with a recovery disk that installs Win XP, but I can't seem to install Win 7 and all standard software drivers and Toshiba, it doesn't seem to work. I tried to download all the drivers on a separate computer, but I have no idea of the order of installation, or what I really do I install if I'm honest.

I read online that it is possible to pay a relatively modest fee and get a new boot disk sent me that would answer all my questions, is this possible and which is the best way to fix my problem?

Thank you

As said already Ilay. You can order the recovery of the function of Arvato disc.
But I m wondering why you are not able to install Windows 7 using the Microsoft disc.
What exactly is the problem?

Did you already install Win 7 and have some problems to install the key drivers?

The order of installation of drivers is very simple: you should start with the current drivers as display driver, chip driver utility, LAN, WLan, etc. then follow with other Toshiba Software and value added package.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1F1 - mounting additional HARD disk

    Hello

    I'm hoping to add an extra hard drive to my satellite pro p300-1f1 laptop. I know that he has an extra compartment and it has a sata connector, so I know it's possible. But I need a support or mount or a caddy/adapter to the hard drive in place of the crew. When I contacted the Dutch Office of toshiba, they said that they did not support it and do not have this part. And the manual of the user on the site Web there says nothing about this compartment.

    I hope that one of you may know part whitch I need (the second compartment of the hard drive need to another mount/support/caddy/adapter then the hard drive that is already installed.

    I live in Holland, so no response with the Dutch dealers or websites would be great but uk / us is also appreciated.

    Update: here are some photos I did inside the compartment. Maby he helps :) ([Fig 1 | http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/8240/dsc01104h.jpg]) ([photo 2 | http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/585/dsc01102s.jpg]) ([photo 3 | http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/2536/dsc01101l.jpg])

    Hi Thijsm,

    If you have a second HARD drive connector, you can add a second HDD. But as you wrote, you need a shopping cart to install it.

    I put t know you contacted exactly, but on the Toshiba site, you will find a list of all ASP s:

  • Satellite Pro L650 - hard disk is not initialized.

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L650 and I am having some problems.

    It all started a few weeks ago, I received the dreaded screen black death (windows could start, but then just came up with a black screen and a cursor. After playing well, I thought that a reinstall of windows would do the trick.

    It worked, but none of my pilots have been installed... After much research, I found my Toshiba repair disc. I put in and went to fix it. At half way through formatting the drive, it came with an error, saying that he was unable to delete a specific file, it asked me to reset.

    So I reset, and it came with a screen with "this disc is not initialized, Please initialize now."
    So I pressed Yes, and it resets, it came with the same screen. and again and again.

    So that's where I am. It is only a year old, and already got the replaced disk. I'm desperate difficulty, I don't want it to become a grammage of paper-dear...

    First of all I m wondering why the message appeared saying that the disk is not initialized have you used the Toshiba restore for the OS installation disc or have you used any other Windows disc?

    On the other hand, it might be possible that your HARD drive is malfunctioning, the cursor blinking in the upper left corner is a sign for this fault
    So I recommend you to check the HARD drive. Use a tool like Drive Fitness Test, for example, it helps you to check the HARD disk
    If errors will be displayed so the HARD drive needs to be replaced

  • Questions on the Satellite Pro L650-167

    Hello

    I have a few questions on the Toshiba Satellite Pro L650-167 I'm about to buy. It is the model with an i5 430 m, 4 GB drr3 and ati 5650.

    (1) will be the laptop computer motherboard supports upgrading to a processor i7m as the 620 m for example? I find these on ebay for good prices. Also can you truly open mobile phones L series to replace the processor? You can for example of dell. I know that my warranty will be cancelled. Finally all the i series cpu is all 35w so do not supply problems?

    (2) can easily exchange you the hard disk of the L series, or is it not available?

    Thank you very much!

    Here is my review for you:

    1
    Update CPU is not supported and I don t think that everyone here will be able to provide some specific information on this subject. Any laptop can be opened and removed so it shouldn't be a problem, but if it's reasonable the decision is another matter. If you need laptop with more power than pay a little more money and buy cell phone more powerful, but don t change anything and have it with full warranty time.

    Generally the design on most Toshiba laptops is the same and access the HARD disk is not complicated. All you have to do is to remove the HARD drive cover placed at the bottom. Then you can remove the original HARD drive and possibly improve with a new.

  • Satellite Pro L650 - 1 CG-output HDMI not working not

    Laptop: Toshiba Satellite Pro L650 - 1 CG, Intel i3 - 350 M, ATI 5650, 4 GB RAM, 320 HARD drive

    When I connect my laptop to my HD Toshiba TV and select 'Connect to a projector', all I get on the TV is a black screen.
    Catalyst Control Center can 'see' the TV and I can adjust the options of resolution for both screens, but no matter what options I try, I can't the TV to show a picture / sound.

    The TV is obviously detected SOMETHING, because it goes from a blue screen to black. Device Manager, I can see the HDMI Codec but even though he says he is activated, I can't put it as default. It says below that it's 'unplugged', and when I run the HDMI control program, it says "To use the HDMI control, you must activate it".

    I have all the latest ATI drivers / sound, as well as virtually all the drivers up to date there. In addition, there is nothing wrong with the cable or my TV, my PS3 is using the same connection.

    Hi were reluctant,

    Normally, you can switch between monitors or switch to an external monitor only when you press the FN + F5 key combination.

    In addition, I would recommend turning on the external monitor first, then switch on the laptop. You can also choose the right channel to HDMI in on your TV. Then, press FN + F5 to switch to your TV.

  • Satellite Pro L650 doesn't get often from sleep mode

    Hi, I have a Satellite Pro L650, model No.: PSK1KA-00Y01E running Windows 7 64 bit.
    This laptop does not pick up often after mode "Eve".

    Can anyone offer suggestions on how to fix this?

    What's happening:
    When the computer sleeps, either by pressing the sleep button, or by closing the lid, this seems to work very well.
    After a minute or 2, I try to get the computer goes through the lid opening, or by pressing the power button. Sometimes, it works correctly.

    Most of the time the lights white led at the front displays for a few seconds and then started. Then, press us the power button and, often, the computer starts and says that Windows has been shut down incorrectly and then completely restarts for a new session.

    Sometimes the computer does not start, and it must cut off the power, then press the power button, which then crosses a full restart of the computer for a new session.

    A few weeks ago, we installed the latest version of the bios (2.20), and the problem persists.
    Is it a driver problem or a hardware problem?
    If it is a driver problem, what drivers should I try to install?

    Thank you
    Graham

    Hello

    > After a minute or 2, I try to get the computer goes through the lid opening, or by pressing the power button. Sometimes, it works correctly.
    This means that this problem is not always, but sometimes only and it of not possible to replicate this.
    In this case is not easy to find a good solution for this

    > We have installed the latest version of the bios (2.20) a few weeks ago, and the problem persists.
    > Is it a driver problem or a hardware problem?
    In my opinion, it could be a software problem. I mean that the problem could be related to corrupt the OS Win. Maybe the registry is confused upward. Usually, if the laptop is in hibernation / sleep mode, by pressing power button should the reactivation of the system in this mode and not shut down the laptop.
    So maybe this is s question OS

    If I understand your message, you have just updated the BIOS but didn't try the recovery procedure. Well well, for checking if the problem hardware or software s, you should get the phone to the factory settings.

  • Satellite Pro L650-1LP - changing language in the OS Win 7

    Hello

    I have a Toschiba Satellite Pro L650-1LP with the Polish version of preinstalled Windows7.

    I want to have an English version. I understand that I must make a recovery disk and that re - install the system by choosing the language English, but I hate that job where I can take my laptop and do it for a reasonable price?

    Thank you very much
    Kasia

    > I understand that I must make a disk recovery and re - install the selection of English language system
    That s bad. Laptops are specific to these countries and offered products in a country specific language only on that your recovery image there is no multilingual option.

    All you can do now is to do clean install OS using installation disc original from Microsoft with the Windows version English or install the Language Pack Microsoft on existing windows.
    In any case, prior to change what any create recovery disk. You can use this disc a day if you want to have once again the factory settings.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • How to wear the Vista/Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 software after upgrade HARD drive

    Hello.

    Have ordered a Seagate Momentus 7200.02 200 GB SATA-300 7200 RPM 16 MB 2.5 "for my Satellite Pro A200GE - 26. Toshiba slow disk with this laptop ships is simply not fast enough so it is replaced.

    My question is this: can I use the recovery disc of the DVD came with my laptop to reinstall Vista and all the Toshiba drivers on this new album?

    If this is not the case-how can I do?

    If I can do it - could you give me a checklist of things to do?
    Are several factors I need to get used to exist on the recovery disk?

    I ask this because I know how to do this on a PC with the Original OS disc, but I was horrified when my laptop has been delivered and no original OS disk - I think it's very bad for any help would be accepted with gratitude.

    Thank you in advance,

    Kenny.

    Hello

    You should not worry about the whole procedure, just install the HARD drive, put the recovery CD in your CD/DVD drive, press F12 and start with your CD drive or just press 'C' (which automatically inserted CD, boots).

    The recovery is not limited to a specific HARD disk, it automatically adjusts the size of the partition and install EVERTHING on your disk as a preinstalled OS shipped directly from the factory. Don t you need some additional drivers or software, the only thing you need to do is to copy your personal data on the system drive and customize your windows.

    It is the intention of recovery media: put it in and it does everything by itself.

    That's all. :)

    See you soon

  • Re: Satellite Pro L650-1QG drags terribly Windows 7 64 bit

    Hi all

    My Satellite Pro L650 1QG began trolling terribly (Windows 7, 64-bit, Service Pack): he often reacts delayed input (mouse clicks, opening new tabs in the browser, type the letters in Open Office etc.). LAGS are sometimes 3 to 5 seconds, sometimes more, sometimes less. In the meantime, cursor turns into 'swirling ring' - symbol. Video and Audio staggers sometimes playing for example Youtube-movies. This happens also in secure boot mode.

    -J' reinstalled Windows by Toshiba HDD Recovery.
    -Windows is up to date.
    -The drivers are up to date.
    -BIOS has been updated in March, as suggested by Toshiba. Everything went well for months after that.
    -Avira Antivir, Windows Defender and Spybot S & D show all hits
    -PC health show average temperature of the processor and the 'good' of the hard drive status
    -No fingerprint software is installed (which is suggested as a source of delays in the knowledge base)

    Do you know of any opportunity to identify the problem?

  • Satellite Pro L650 turns off after start; DC In and Power LEDs blink on stop

    A friend Satellite Pro L650 having worked well until yesterday, all of a sudden turned itself off. Now, at startup, it lights up normally for about 10-15 seconds before turning off suddenly. Turned off, the DC in white/blue LED and the orange Power LED Flash on a broad set of intervals of approximately one second. This extinction happens if I leave Windows or press F2 to enter the BIOS setup.

    I guess this blinking is intended to serve as a kind of diagnostic code, but I have yet to track down what it means. Can anyone help?

    To avoid confusion, power without the product stack the same, sudden stop experience, except the two LEDs remain solidly lit this time. With or without battery, trying to turn on again immediately after that a shutdown produced no response at all. Remove the power cable and immediately it reconnect again and turn then produced a brutal power off, but in less than 5 seconds. More wait between attempts to market seems to give a little longer powered on State, but without fault, the machine turns off just suddenly. With its short time 'turned on' we are talking, there cannot be any kind of thermal protection?

    I had an old Satellite L450D lying around that uses coincidentally the same AC PA-1750 adapter, but use it made no difference. Of course, the battery does not have the L650!

    The only previous numbers, that I am aware of this machine have been intermittent case of Windows reporting "Plugged in, not charging", but as my friend use it exclusively on the network, it was not a problem.

    Your thoughts will be greatly appreciated...

    greeting of the developing countries

    Hello

    Open windows power management and settings for the management of the power supply you use. You will find the advanced power option. Open it and you will find Toshiba power saver options.

    Open all the available option and check the settings of the cooling method. Set to optimized battery option.
    This should reduce the speed of the cooling fan.

    Please test and validate the results.

  • Upgrading RAM on toshiba satellite pro l650

    I have 2 toshiba satellite pro l650. first of all an i did a RAM upgrade 8 GB (2 x 4 GB DDR3 1066 MHz Kingston) 1 year ago and work. Now, I would like to upgrade to the other laptop.

  • Satellite Pro L650 - 1 L 4: battery will be discharged when the laptop is disconnected

    Hello together,

    I have a problem with my 5 month old laptop Satellite Pro L650 1 L 4.

    When the laptop is unplugged it will pay the battery. About 44% within 24 hours.

    Of course, options like BIOS "Wake we Lan ' and something like which are completely disabled.
    And of course the laptop is turned off completely and not the Sleep Mode.

    Any ideas?

    Kind regards

    Stephan

    Hello

    Please check if the wake-up on LAN is also disabled in the properties of LAN card (Device Manager-> LAN card-> properties-> Advanced tab).
    I also recommend checking the WLan card as well.
    Please also check if attached USB devices don't lose the power of the battery.

    But also a malfunction of the accumulator may be possible... so it has to be checked also...
