• 2 years by Satellite L300 has started playing up - recovery disc question

  Hello world

  I ve created the Toshiba Recovery Disc (s) and think I need to use it now. My Satellite L300-1AQtaking AGES to load when I turn on, it sometimes crashes for no apparent reason (it tells me memory is OK, so not a problem of RAM) and because of the other weird inconveniences.

  Should I use the recovery disks do, you think? Is it simple? It does not give to-step instructions please? Operating system is Vista.

  Thank you very much

  Yes, you must use recovery discs and make clean OS install. After 2 years of use, I think that the operating system needs to be updated.

  After the own OS, you will see that laptop will work a lot better than before.
  Please also optimize OS: remove all the unnecessary stuff from the system and configure the Windows startup. This will make the start much more quickly.

  Hello

  I don't think anyone can tell you with certainty what recovery DVDs belongs to a specific model laptop maybe authorized service provider in your country. They should have access to the database of Toshiba and maybe they can identify it.

• Aspire 5742 recovery disc question

  This is a long post.  I went through a lot of steps already.  I'm not an expert in technology, but I read directions well (most of the time), and my knowledge comes from working through the problems as they come.  I use a newer laptop to make different drives and disks.

  I have an Acer Aspire 5742 Windows 7 hp 08. I had a few deep-rooted malware and decided to do a system restore. The system restore worked and the first thing I did was last updated from windows. There were 192 updates and it took a few hours for them to download and install. After the restart, while it was down to the 5 latest updates to install, a message appeared on the screen, indicating that updates failed, and all of the updates would return. Eight hours later nothing had changed. The screen looked exactly the same. I don't know if I did the wrong thing, but I assumed that the restoration was in an infinite loop and made a decision to perform recovery with my Acer OEM drives.

  There is a system disk and the value of three with the Acer recovery disks. I don't know if all the recovery disks work exactly the same but in case they are not, I will include the information which has come to the screen. After the system disk is inserted and that windows support files, the options in this box Acer Recovery Management are-

  Restore OS - OS restore to default factory default status. All the data on the C: drive will be deleted. (It was the option that I tried to use)
  Restore the operating system and to keep the data of the user - only restore the operating system of your PC to the factory default. Your user account files will be transferred to C:\backup. This option does not remove the malware. (When I tried this: no user data were found on your computer)
  Fully restore computer to factory settings - restore your computer back to the factory default state. All data in the hidden partition and the system partition will be restored. Before restoring, please delete all data on the hard drive (when I tried this: Please delete all files from your hard drive before you start.) This function will not work if there is no file on the hard disk.)

  So by clicking on option 1, there's the box in the view of what is happening. The area becomes "restore the Destination."
  The hard drive name: ST500LM000 - 1EJ162 ATA device
  Partition label: Acer
  Size 8.0 GB partition
  Copy of disk files.
  Please insert the restore disc 1.
  Copy of disk files
  Insert disk 2.
  Copy of disk files
  Insert disk 3 (it is 80% complete)
  Copy of disk files.

  Shortly after that the disk turns on a message box appears saying "There are not enough disk space for the temporary files needed for this operation"

  Press Ok. Wait a minute please. Acer boot screen then back "BOOTMGR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete.
  Pressing C + A + earrings back to the boot screen Acer and return to "BOOTMGR, etc.".
   
  The original crapped out drive and I replaced it with a hybrid 500 GB drive.  I have partitioned the hard drive for the upgrade of windows 8, which was offered when I bought the laptop.  I rarely used it, and it remained a 20 GB partition.  Think that the partition might be the problem I downloaded the portable computer Wizard mini partition my new tool and copied the files to a CD, a DVD and a flash drive.  All contained errors. Failure of the Conference on disarmament.  I tried another, he sounded like he was going to start and then returned to the screen BOOTMGR.  I pulled out a blank dvd, copied the file .iso from the score to it. The message on the screen: drive hard virtual cannot be mounted from image files or from removable media that is not formatted with the NTFS file.

  I dug around and eventually find my flash drives. The flash player has a default FAT32 and I changed to NTFS (based on the above message) and formatted. I copied the file to the partition.  The message on the screen: a BONE was not found. Try disconnecting all drives that do not contain a BONE.  I made in all attempts above that I changed the boot order in the bios.

  I tried another flash drive and kept the default FAT32.  It would sound like he was trying to start then:
  PX - E61 Media test failure. Check the cable of
  Output of MOF broadcom PXE

  What I am doing wrong?  What can I do to correct this player so that it be cleaned?

  I forgot that I had an external enclosure for a hard drive, so I took out the hard drive for Acer and it subservient to my new laptop. I bought it when the original Acer hard drive became corrupt to try to look at the files. Here I am trying to understand the hard and a less complicated solution (for me) was at hand.  Of course, he had 4 partitions with only 8 GB for the Acer.  Don't know how it happened.  I am planning to wipe the disk completely and using the disks from Acer to start all over again.

  Please accept my sincere thanks for taking the time to help me.  I learn something new every time I have to correct a problem and without the help of message boards I would be screwed.

• Question about the creation of the recovery disc

  Hello
  I bought the new laptop Lenovo G500S (model 20245).
  My licensed Version of Windows is Windows 8 Version 6.2 Build 9200.
  Here are my questions:
  1. when I started to create the recovery disk, mentioned initial information display the image size estimated at 27.6 GB.
  However, the size of recovery disk that was created in my external HARD drive is 16GB only.
  Please let me know what is the size of the expected recovery.
  2. How will I know if I have a recovery partition on my system. The D partition size is 22.4 GB. The contents are Application and drivers.
  Thank you
  Naren

  Hi Naren,

  To create a disc of recovery of the minimum disk space required is 16 GB. Recovery media is a general term for media containing a backup of the original factory condition or a favorable condition for a computer configured by an equipment manufacturer (OEM) or an end user. OEM media allows you to reformat the hard drive and reinstall the operating system and preloaded software, that it was when it was shipped. Typically, if you create a recovery disc, it will have drivers and other applications.

  You can check the link below.

  Anyway, any help really appreciated.
  Thanks in advance

  PS: I forgot to add that I do not have the recovery disk, should have as I bought the new laptop from argos...

• Satellite L350-17Z: Question recovery disc creation - problem with calibration

  I'm eager to get win xp instead of vista current on Satellite L350-17Z because some soft is not stable and vulnerabilities, while under xp on the desktop computer, I had no problem. XP compatibility mode is not solve this problem.

  So I decided to do it in a cruel manner as a laptop is new and almost empty, not to mention the habit of hard drive xp. Still I tried to make a recovery, using TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator.

  Buta * during DVD burning there is a fault and message about some problems with the calibration. I tried a few discs - same result.

  Hi Snen,

  It would be interesting to know what CD/DVD drive you have. Maybe you should try to update the firmware of the drive. For some readers of Toshiba and Pioneer, the site shows an update of the firmware. It s worth a try!
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  And what kind of DVD that you use to create a recovery disk? I have good experience with the types of DVD - R and I use Verbatim.

• Satellite L350 - Question about recovery disc creation

  Help, please.

  I read in the manual for my new lap top before setting up and feel rather nervous.

  The seller said that he had to open automatically when I start it, and all I had to do to install the printer and my word m/s (for example) program and I would be in place and running.

  But it seems that I should first do some recovery disks.
  How many disks is necessary? DVD no doubt - or D/L.?
  The recovery discs are possible after other programs installed?

  Secondly, he mentioned the manual online. Where can I find it?
  I have a scanner and a Seagate external hard drive, but these can be added later.
  I use the laptop as a desktop replacement for my old Mesh PC of five years.

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  Yes, it is very important to create the recovery disk before you change anything on your HARD drive laptops.
  When you have completed the installation of Vista, you must start the application called recovery Toshiba disc Creator.
  This application will help you create the recovery disk.

  As I m not wrong not you would need a DVD. I recommend using a DVD-R.

  Notes; in some cases, you might get an error burning the recovery DVDs. This may happen because not all drives are fully compatible. So if you get this error please check different DVD from different manufacturers

  Good bye

• Recovery Disc Creator Error - Satellite A300-1GN

  First of all, sorry for my English, but it is not my mother tongue. On my problrm, short and simple technique:

  I inserted a new DVD disc in the DVD burner and program was working fine but suddenly that he will miss just give an error with something like that 'there was an error in the calibration of reinforcement sector. "Error code: 0E01B5-26-00037304"

  Pleas, help.

  Hello

  I agree with the codes for the TDKs are not bad and I had a very good experience with these media.
  I tried to burn the recovery disk using another brand and I've damaged 3 DVD + R discs
  Then I went to the TDK DVD - R and it is ok

  I think that questions is related to the question of the compatibility between the discs and the STRANGE...
  So it of really worth to test different media!

  Hello

  Have you changed anything on your laptop?
  I mean if your HARD drive recovery partition has been changed or the data partition thin o has been removed?

  To be honest, for me, it looks like the issue of the BONE. I think that it s not a question of simple tool, but I think that the operating system was confused

  Maybe you should try to recover the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery and after the new installation of operating system on your laptop, you can try to create the recovery disk again.

  To start the recovery, you must press the F8 key immediately after the laptop has been powered. Then, you choose the first option called fix my computer.
  This would lead to a new window and there, you could choose Toshiba HDD recovery.

  But note; This recovery would format the whole HARD drive then perhaps you need to back up data before you start this procedure.

• Upgrade SSD using recovery discs: warnings?

  I would like to start by saying that I am pretty technology-challenged, then kindly appreciate if authors of response could use short and simple words with me.

  I have a 8460p with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit Elitebook. I want to upgrade my HARD drive of 320 GB for a 500 GB SSD. Instead of my current HARD drive cloning, I decided to do a new installation on the new SSD. I don't have a Windows 7 disc, but fortunately, HP includes a recovery with any purchase of Elitebook disc.

  However, I have read elsewhere that using a recovery on a disc SSD is a bad idea because it will lead to "problems of alignment." Well, to tell you the truth, I have no idea what this means, but it sounds bad.

  Yes, I wonder if it is safe to put in my SSD boot on my recovery disk and install Windows 7 like that.

  On an unrelated note, I read a lot of guides on the installation and optimization of SSDS. They say all the different things, which is a little intimidating. (Some people even say to ignore that these guides because many of them were written long ago, back when SSD was still in their infancy, and SSD of today do not need to be optimized.)

  In any case, is one of the things that all the guides say to use the AHCI mode, which is an option that I'm supposed to be able to find in my BIOS (I haven't checked, so I do not know!). My question is: when I should change it to AHCI mode? Before leaving my old HDD and installing my SSD? Or after putting in the SSD? Everything I know about AHCI is that it is supposed to make the SSD run faster.

  Thanks for all the helpful tips!

  Clarissa

  BIOS of your laptop are already set to default AHCI, you need not worry about this. Problems with SSDS come to use a SSD that is smaller than the smallest drive available on the series. In such cases, the recovery discs are confused. You propose to use a 500 GB SSD, so it shouldn't be a problem. Personally, I wouldn't do the factory restore. Instead, you can download an OEM of Windows 7 version that corrresponds to your license. Is - this Windows 7 Professional? It must be the same version, because you will use the key Code on the bottom of your laptop to turn it on. This is a link to download a completely legal, correct recovery disk OEM Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit:

  http://MSFT.digitalrivercontent.NET/win/X17-24281.ISO

  It is an .iso. This can be burned to a DVD disc can be used. Return ticket if you have questions, but Windows 7 with a disk image utility that should allow you to do or a software like Nero burning also will burn an .iso on a disc. You can't just burn the .iso to a disk image file. It has integrated Service Pack 1 so you can avoid this first huge update. You can copy the laptop hard drive swsetup folder and it will have all the drivers and software pre-installed. You can also use Windows Easy Transfer to create a file that will restore the files and the browser settings and preferences. If you need assistance.

• best2serve pile of crap recovery disc

  Hello

  Two weeks ago, I ordered a set of recovery disc for an HP Pavilion ms215uk all in a desktop pc.

  I paid £31.06 for drives that turn up. (7 days from order to receipt) - fair enough.

  However - they did not work. Disc 1 is OK, but on the insertion of disk 2, I got an error in Dutch (not English) that the system recovery discs would not work on this system.

  Great Stuff - Hp cannot even provide the correct disks.

  Good so I then sent their emails of support of shit and got a response indicating that they would send others.

  7 days later the disks turned up and guess what?

  Yes - they do not have work - same message - Dutch once again - and after inserting the disc 2 disc 5.

  It's 2 weeks - no recovery drive of work for my system - and 10 coasters.

  What the hell is happening with this crap company. No phone support (now I know why) and only contact by email - which they have not responded to and its now more than 24 hours.

  All brands on the site - even HP Hp can't help saying that I need to contact best2serve.

  Well I can't contact them because there is no way to contact them outside of the email.

  As far as I am concerned the disks are under warranty and that I should beable to call and ask why they do not work or have at least my money I can buy a copy of windows 7 and do a reinstall completely Virgin.

  2 weeks is not good enough - I'm just glad that the discs are not intended for a customers machine. Best2serve are crap - useless - and not very reliable from what I've read on this forum and the net in general.

  Oh - and discs are not manufactured or factory - basically, they are 1 x cd blank with green dye and 4 x dvd with purple dye. In other words discs burned and unprepared discs.

  And they are not scratched btw.

  So my question is what you do about best2serve or Hp?

  I have to go to the negotiation of standards?

  Or

  I have to create a website denouncing the best2web service and support - I could do a good job of it too.

  Your call.

  concerning

  peedoffbigtime

  Hi Paul,.

  As promised I have news on the situation.

  And here are my results.

  After many phone calls and e-mails to Hp and best2serve, I figured out that the Pc should be sent repair.

  That's why the recovery disks wouldn't work - pc necessary fixation. EVIL.

  The recovery discs would not work because I had installed a new hardrive.

  The recovery discs check the dmi information in bios or dmi on the "original hard drive" string that is automatically written in sector 8 hard drive at the factory.

  Replace the hard drive or the motherboard and your recovery disks do not work.

  BIOS updates can mess up too, the dmi information which was not the case with this pc.

  It's the original Bios HP 2009 - there isn't another available on Hp website.

  However for some reason any (nothing that I did at all)-

  Model number: MS215UK

  Serial number: 123456789

  Version identifier: 94WEv6PrA2

  The string Featurebyte: 333rd 2S2V and so on

  Part number: VG256AA

  The country Code: #ABU

  has all the missing since the information screen of the bios by pressing F10 to access the bios.

  It was like that for / to the plant.

  To solve this problem, I used an Hp dmi tool that is not accessible to the public, but a google search for cpc_dmi hp tool should get what you need. He made me.

  The 2010 version is the one you need.

  So, I used the Hp Dmi's tool and the cpc_dmi.exe of a bootbale disk file and published this information.

  Once I had done that and saved the settings of the chip rom all the correct information was shown on the system bios screen.

  Now armed, knowing this info has been tattooed in the rom chip system I proceeded with the recovery disk install again.

  I used the cd 'First use this disc' and then started the drive 1 0f 4

  This now gave me a good screen of Hp recovery option rather than the screen in Dutch say the recovery discs would not work on this system message.

  Disc 1 0f 4 installed perfectly and so the other 3.

  My system is now recovered and working as it did in 2009 when purchased new.

  Then

  I corrected the error of recovery disks don't work do not.

  I stuck two fingers up to the Hp support.

  I saved myself over £100 + by sending only not in Hp update bios dmi information. (FIX my donkey)

  That said it took me two days to get this working correctly through complete trial and error, but I'm a happy guy now.

  Oh - and don't will never buy Hp again. They suck.

  Thanks for the help

• HP PAVILION ELITE E9280T D: CTO need new recovery disc

  I have a pair of old HP Pavillion E9280T desktop systems. I have recently installed a new hard disks on the two (both are identical machines, ordered that a pair of HP).  I also have a two sets of recovery disks that I made when the systems are new, saved on DVD.

  On a single system, I was able to successfully perform a full restore (return to factory settings).  On the other system, recovery stops on the 3rd disc in 68% and gives me the following error message: "Recovery Manager is unable to restore your computer by using the original image. Please contact HP support. 0xe0ef000e error code.

  I've searched the forums and found that many others have experienced this same problem.  I tried some of the proposed fixes, such as clean rags and Re-partitioning the hard drive.  None of them worked.
  
  For fun, I also tried to recover the system using the recovery of the other machine disks.  I discovered that I was able to do a full system recovery using these disks.  It tells me that I have probably a corrupt set of recovery disks and not a hardware problem.

  Unfortately, while it was fun to find out where the source of the problem, I can of course use the same set of recovery disc for both machines (I'm sure that Windows will blow up as soon as I connect to the internet and connect to MS servers).
  
  So my question is... what should I do?  I don't think that HP sells the recovery discs any longer.  But I have a copy of Win7 Pro that I paid for, trapped on the recovery discs that don't work.
  
  In advance, thank you for any suggestions or advice.

  OK... im going to answer my own question... I should have realized this earlier, before posting my initial question.

  I had a set of recovery disc for an HP same machine... at the beginning I don't think that I could use them... I did not know that the unique product key MS is not copied or assigned to the recovery discs... and since both systems where the same in all respects... it worked!
