Satellite Pro L670 - first boot disk error

Hello
need help. My laptop computer brandnew said by the first start 'disk error '.

What is a HD failure or another problem.

To be honest disc error message doesn t mean a lot to me, and you must use more than one phrase to describe your problem.

# Have you installed Windows 7? (after first boot pre-installed operating system must be installed)
# You see Toshiba welcome screen?
# When you press power button / stop at what exactly happens?

Help us to understand the your problem please.

  • Satellite Pro 430 CDT - boot disk problems

    I have a toshiba satellite pro 430 cdt which I am trying to re - install windows 95 (I have win 95 on cd) on with no luck at the moment.

    I downloaded the two files from bootdisk from www.bootdisk.com, win95a and win95b, but have neither the right cd rom driver, so then I got put www.driverguide.com driver this driver on startup disk and change the config file to use the correct driver and I always get the message that no driver for cd rom drive was found.

    I don't know if the cd rom drive no longer works, even if the green light on the side flashes when you eject the disc that told me that things seem ok (maybe wrong here however). I have the cd rom plugged into the Bay on the right side of the machine (internal) and drive in the caddy it is connected on the left side of the machine (external) and even if I swap them on the cd rom drive does not work but the floppy drive works in two ways. If the connector edge on the cd rom drive doesn't work properly or the drive itself is shot.

    If I remember correctly when the boot disk works correctly it should give you 3 or 4 options (don't remember that it was a long time ago I finally did, and I did not work boot disc, DOH!), which one should be something like, "install windows with the cd rom support" or something like that.

    Once I get this I am ok I have win 95 on cd, and it is quite simple installation there from there that I built a few pc and installed different versions of windows with no true front hassels.

    Did he have the same machine as me (uk version) and able to compress all the files on a boot floppy from win 95 work and e-mail it to me?

    Or just files autoexec.bat and config.sys are all I really need (as long as they work those). Anyone know anywhere I can get my hands on one set of diskettes originally supplied with the machine that I seem to have lost mine, I think there were two or three players but no windows cd, I bought my copy (legit) from a computer fair years.

    Will provide you with my e-mail address later if necessary.

    Thanx

    Hi Steve

    I found the information that the device was shipped with 10 x player XM - 1502-B.

    Check this box:
    http://www.cdrom-drivers.com/companies/1066.htm

    There you can find a lot of drivers for different units. But maybe it's something wrong with the occupation of s PIN. In addition, you can ask the service partner for advice.

    Good bye

  • Satellite Pro L670-16Z - XP installation after using Windows 7?

    Regards to all forums. I'm new here.

    Next week I should get a new pc, * Satellite Pro L670-16Z *. I have a few questions.

    * 1. * If, during some weeks, use my computer with Windows 7, after that I can downgrade to Windows XP?

    * 2 if I downgrade to XP, you can reinstall Windows 7 new?
    Thank you for the replay.

    If you want to reinstall Windows 7, you must first create the recovery disk. There should be an icon on the desktop. Use good quality DVD discs since those of poor quality can cause errors during recovery.

    To install XP, you buy XP in a store (which may be difficult).

    You can run XP in Windows 7 Professional or higher using a Virtual Machine.

  • Satellite Pro L670 - size of the Excessive recovery partition

    Hello

    New to this forum I have just bought a new laptop of Toshiba Satellite Pro L670, is great so far, but I have a question I'd like to solve.

    It has a 500 GB hard drive, which will be more than enough for some time yet, but I'm not satisfied with the way it is partitioned, usable space is divided into 232 C: and 232 GB D: that has the data folder HDDRecovery on it. Now, I know that I can still use the partiition for data, but I prefer to keep all my files in one place and the usual locations of Windows on the C: drive.

    What is the best way to recover all my hard drive space, Windows allows me to shrink the D. partition, but cannot extend the C: partition into free space created as the recovery folder is in the way. Thought copy output folder then recreate a smaller partiiton D: but he did not like me trying to move the folder either!

    ID of burn recovery DVDs can I safely delete the D: partition? I prefer to keep the disk but with a bigger drive C: is the highest priority!

    Congratulations to all

    Steve

    Hi scoobasteve,

    > What is the best way to recover all my hard drive space
    There is no better way. There are many options for the creation of new partitions because some people prefer a single partition, other people using a lot of partitions.

    Don t worry folder HDDrecovery!

    For example, I installed all my programs/games on the first partition C: where I installed Windows as well. This partition uses 50% of HARD drive space.
    Then I have a second partition D: with HARD drive recovery record. He s using the other 50% and on that, I've stored my files like photos, videos, music, documents, etc. No program, but all other files.

    In my opinion that s ok because I have to run HARD drive recovery, only the C: partition is removed. My important files are still on the D: partition after recovery of HARD drive. In addition, each week, I create a backup of all files on D: partition wait folder of HARD disk recovery. That's why I use Acronis True Image, it records the image on an external DRIVE connected via USB drive.

    Then why delete disk HARD recovery file?
    Of course, you can remove it but create the before recovery disk! After you delete the folder, you are not able to do this more!

  • New Satellite Pro L670 - 14 M turns on if the charger is plugged?

    Hi all

    New to the forum so grateful for any help on this matter.

    I bought a brand new laptop Satellite Pro L670 - 14 M last week. Now it works fine up until today. The last time that I used it while just running the battery was Monday night. I was working on the laptop, send email etc. today, and I decided to change rooms. For some reason, I still have to discover that I disconnected the charger from the wall (instead of simply unplug the charger from the laptop) so that it was plugged into the laptop and the laptop just turned off much to my shock. It was sparking that I saw the decision-making that I removed the CAP, but now the laptop lights not unless supply current is connected. If I unplug the charger, the computer does not illuminate.

    Now, my first thought is I (crossed beams) killed the battery, but the strange thing is, when the laptop is plugged in and turned on and I'm on my screen and I click on the battery icon in the taskbar it States 94% available (plugged in, load)

    While I wait for some answers I hope I shut down the laptop and leave the charger plugged in to see if the battery has loaded more than 94%

    Hello

    I think that the BIOS update would be worth a try in your case. Take a look at the Toshiba driver download page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    But before you start the update: make sure that you are logged on as administrator and close all running programs. Unzip all files from zip archive first.
    After update successful BIOS load default settings in the BIOS.

    Are you using the original Toshiba battery and AC adapter or they are 3rd parties gone?

  • Satellite Pro L670 - 11 d and Dynadock U10 problem re-docking station

    This my first post on this forum - I hope I have the right category.

    We have a user with a Satellite Pro L670 - 11 d attached to a port replicator Dynadock U10 USB.

    Everything seems fine, except when press us the disconnect button (or select eject Dock) the laptop leaves the great.
    However when we try to anchor (for example after a meeting of bureau) it does not recognize the usb connection and docking station won't. We usually have to restart at this point. We are attentive to reconnect to the same usb port.

    Has anyone seen this problem and know a fix?

    Thank you

    David

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem only under this Dynadock U10 or perhaps with the external USB HDD too?
    In my opinion, it sounds a bit like the issue of the BONE and not like the Dynadock question.

    I would recommend this control by using a USB HDD.
    Connect the USB HDD to the USB port as well.
    Then, disconnect the USB HDD and unplug the laptop HARD drive. Reconnect the HARD drive and check if the HARD drive would be connected again.
    If the same thing would happen with HARD drive, you should check the USB port
    Maybe the chipset driver will need to be updated

    But if the HARD drive is raccorderaient ok and if the question does not seem to be using the HARD drive, then, it would be necessary to check the Dynadock maybe reinstall the Dynadock from the software again.

  • Fan is always running on my Satellite Pro L670-17R

    Hi all

    First of all, I'm french, so excuse me for my poor English. I'll try to explain my problem. I've just bought a satellite Pro L670-17R, core i5 450, ati 5650.

    As I only work with the word or surf the web, fan runs always every two minutes. I checked the temperature of the processor (with pc health monitor from toshiba), and it gives me 37 ° C which seem quite normal.
    I'm trying to change an option in the Panel, but without success, anything in the bios, to set the speed of the fan over the CPU usage.

    If you have any ideas or suggestions, it would be great.

    If you want to reduce the speed of the fan cooling use the balanced power plan and go into the advanced power settings.
    Energy saving of Toshiba you will find the option called cooling method. Assign the optimised battery.
    Cooling fan should run on low speed.

  • Satellite Pro U400 - Vista boot failure

    My 2nd nine Satellite Pro U400 (first a HARD drive failed after 1 week!) now does not start on Vista.
    Works very well for 4 weeks with upgrade original Vist Basic to Ultimate and Office 2007.

    Today on the switch on the Toshiba bar logo (with go to Setup etc.) started then replaced by Microsoft 'bar', then replaced by the arrow of the Mouse/touchpad.
    Mobile arrow on the screen of the mouse, but then nothing else, boots.

    Tried all modes of security and same problem.

    Ideas to please or do I have a 2nd 'lemon '!

    Hmm. I don't know if this problem could be related to upgrading from Vista Basic to ultimate, but nothing is impossible m.

    I think the HARD drive is not the problem as you can still start the OS startup.
    OK, the OS crashes, but if the HARD drive would be dysfunctional, then you should be able to see the 'bar' of Microsoft.

    So for me, it looks like something wrong with the operating system and therefore the use of the recovery CD would be desirable.

    Using the recovery CD would format the HARD drive, but unfortunately I really t see any other possibilities for the laptop running again.

    Good luck

  • Vista drivers for new Satellite Pro L670 - 14L

    So I have been serching for a laptop of decent game and found: Toshiba Satellite Pro L670 - 14L to be a good combination power/price
    but after reading some reviews, I discovered that many people's complaint that the toshiba drivers are not updated.
    that seems to be true because the latest drivers for my P300 with 4500 m are 2008!

    So, I checked for L670 Vista display drivers and did not find one! Even for Win7 do not seem old already,
    is that mean Toshiba is not compatible Vista more? I have to use windows 7 only?

    I can see in the specifications of the laptop your laptop came with WIN7 64 BITS HOME PREMIUM.
    Can you confirm this?

    Why are you asking about the Vista drivers if you got the new OS to Win7. You want to use Vista or what?
    I want to say Win7 is much better than old Vista OS so I put t understand what you exactly want. To use Vista or you ask here for more recent WIn7 display driver?

  • Which hard drive Solid State for Satellite Pro L670?

    I have a Satellite Pro L670, I need to configure for presentation and having to re - load operating system anyway.

    Rather than write the existing drive too much, I thought that it would be best to get a second to adapt instead.
    Replace the current (obsolete) rotation drive with a solid state, it seems to me the best way to go.
    Has anyone equipped with a hard drive to a Satellite Pro?

    For budget reasons, I plan to go for a capacity of 120 GB that will be enough.

    However, I've yet to discover at Toshiba they could recommend. Anyone else gone this route?

    Hello

    Theoretically, any SATA SSD drive should be compatible because the laptop supports a SATA controller.
    But in some cases, it might be possible that an SSD would not be treated properly. In such cases, SDD drive manufacturers provide different firmware updates

    So before buying an SSD drive check the support pages of the manufacturers of SSDS for more details would perhaps have a firmware update
