• Satellite M70 - no hidden restore partition

  I noticed that many laptops Toshiba hidden partition and recovery DVDs either. I have no partiotion hidden, only the recovery DVDs. Is this normal?

  Yes this is normal. For this former model for computer laptop Toshiba didn't create recovery partition. Satellite M70 comes with recovery DVDs.

  New laptop models are supplied without recovery DVD media, but with recovery image saved on the second partition and each owner of the laptop can create CD/DVD recovery only.

• Satellite M70 - after HARD drive partitioned, the OS does not start

  Hello

  Good then this is a real doozy, and I hope that someone will help.

  I started to fix my satellite m70 girlfriends using the disc of recovery etc, everything went fantastic, the HARD disk has been erased and Windows + all software has been reinstalled.

  Then I thought it would be a good idea to use partition magic to partition the hard drive, so I chose the main hard drive and cut 10GB of it to put in place a new partition.

  I rebooted, and then after Windows restarted again completed.

  NOW, it does not charge, it says no operating system, so I tried to start with the recovery disk and all over again...

  If I click on continue (to start the recovery process), however it is said now that the "Error #1828", free space is too small.

  I'm really angry that this has happened and I just want to start over again.

  Can someone help me with this?
  I can't access the Bios either (not sure if that might help), because I don't know the password (must be a fault im not aware of).

  Help, please.

  Thank you

  I think that this is the reason why you used a tool to change the size of the partition. At best, this should be done before you install Windows and 10 GB is a little too small for Windows. You must use at least 15-20 GB for the first partition where the BONE is placed.

  To resolve this problem, you must delete all existing partitions before using the recovery disk. Therefore, you can use a Windows XP disk or something else. Just boot from it and delete all partitions. Then the recovery disk should work.

• Satellite M70: How partition the HDD via the restore CD?

  I'm going to format and reinstall XP on my Toshiba satellite M70 via the restore CD.
  It has 40 GB of hard drive. I want to ask is an option in the recovery CD to partition my HD before you install the OS, just as we can do so through XP CD?

  Enemy thanks any help.

  Of course, it of possible to create a partition with the recovery CD Toshiba delivered!
  You must use the recovery expert mode.
  So to change the size of the partition in the ghost window. For example, from 40 GB to 30 GB. In this case, 10 GB remains free.

  After the installation of the OS, it must go into disk management in the computer management. (right-click on the icon my computer Manage)
  Here, you only have to make the visible 10 GB partition.

  Another possibility is to use a Partitions Magic 8. This tool allows you to create and manage partitions after installing Windows

• Satellite M70-309 and info on the recovery cd

  Hello!
  I'm Italian, I hope you understand me...

  So, I bought Satellite M70-309, fantastic for laptop and I have a question about recovery cd...

  In this cd there is always a 'clean' of Windows XP or XP + drivers + software (ghost image)?
  Because I'd like to partition the disk and clean install s.o.

  What can I do?

  Thank you!
  Ciao!

  Hello

  On the restore CD, you will find the image files.
  Image files contain the Windows operating system, Toshiba drivers and utility and some additional example OneNote, WinDVD or some burning applications programs.

  If you want to install a clean Win operating system you need to buy the original Windows operating system and then you can install your required applications.
  But for me it makes no sense, because if you want to use the full features of this magnificent phone you need all Toshiba drivers and utilities.
  If you don't need some applications you can simply remove it from the BONE.

  Hello Pesche

  Instructions how to install Os using supplied recovery media, you can find under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2513&tstart=15

  I recommend to use the Expert installation mode and create a clean partition. When the computer starts for the first time you will be able to see the C partition only. The D partition must be created also in the OS, but is really not a problem.

  Exact explanation which you will find under:

• 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 M70: Question on the recovery procedure

  I have a problem with the saver of energy on my Satellite M70, whenever I start my toshiba it took about 10 minutes to start windows, then it displays an error message and it's really annoying.

  I tried to reinstall the energy saver, but nothing has changed. I couldn't find a solution, so I decided to use the recovery CD. The problem is that I have very important files around 50 GB on my D: drive, and all system files are on the C: drive. It is really difficult to copy on DVD. then can I make recovery only to the C: drive?

  If so, please give me a quick procedure.
  Please answer as soon as possible and thanks in advance...

  If you want to retrieve the OS with the recovery CD and will not lose the data and files on the D: partition if you must use the recovery expert procedure.
  This expert mode allows you to choose the partition where the OS is to be installed.
  In this case that the data on the C partition will be deleted.

• The upgrade to Vista on Satellite M70

  Hi all

  Recently I bought windows vista Ultimate edition. I have a satellite M70 that was the sentence compatible vista under the designed for xp sticker/hologram.

  I ran a compatibility test that said Vista Home Basic with my equipment is the recommended package!

  I don't have that ultimate. I read views on the performance of vista ultimate, with people who use the same or similar configuration such as myself.

  IM is really after some clarifications in the whole of the process and whether or not its recommended to install vista at all!

  Only, I have basic computer knowledge, but have heard of people who speak a "second partitions" as precautions. More info on it would be also great.

  Any comments would be great, thanks in advance

  Dave

  P.S.: I have 512 RAM, 1.7 ghz processor. Its processor intel centrino. 60 GB hard drive!

  Hello

  I tried Vista Ultimate on my M70 capable non-Vista and it works fine but extremely slow. My M70 only has 512 MB of RAM, and I think less than 1 GB of RAM there is no sense to install and use Vista.

  OS works well. All hardware components are recognized correctly except SD card but I do not have much talk (not so important to me).

  On the sheet music, I can only say that it is always recommended to create two partitions. For the operating system itself and the other for recording data. If you have problems to create two partitions, please write again.

• Linux Debian 3.0 on Satellite M70-159

  Hello. I would like to install Debian Linux 3.0 (kernel 2.6) on my Satellite M70-159 (from DVD disc). After some operations Installer Linux said that my laptop has no HDD (Partitionable media). Anyone tried to install Debian on M70? Is it possible to install Linux on this laptop?

  Post edited by: Vindsor

  Hello

  How did you create the partition, and you have created the partition for the use of Linux?
  The fact is that you cannot use a similar kind of partition for the Windows operating system.

  PS: Unfortunately, Toshiba doesn't support the Linux operating system and you will find all the drivers Toshiba for this OS.

• Blue Screen of Death and no XP CD - Satellite M70

  Hello.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M70 that displays the blue screen of death at startup. It reads an error 0x000000ED reporting an error unmountable as the specific problem.

  Unfortunately, I have no CD of Windows XP to restore my computer. I have the Toshiba product recovery CD, but that seems like it will just format my computer, and I have important data, I want to absolutely not delete from my hard drive.

  I can't start in safe mode; Blue screen of death appears immediately at startup. If I try to pass int F8, advanced options, but after you have selected the system restore, it goes back to BSOD. I also tried to burn an ISO to the recovery file and the computer entered the Windows installation, but hangs on "Setup starts Windows.

  Any idea what the problem might be? And how can I solve this problem without deleting any info on my computer?

  THX.

  Hello

  The HARD drive can be removed very easily. It s placed at the bottom of the unit and you have to delete only one screw to remove the plastic cover that holds the HARD drive Bay.

  I think it's a better solution than you could connect to another computer via the external USB HDD controller.

  If you want to use a Toshiba Recovery CD then you must choose the advanced option which would allows you to choose the partition where the operating system would be installed.
  And this partition will be formatted

  So in this case you would also lose some files from the HARD drive

  I'm not sure about BartPE just google for more details

• Satellite M70 - black screen on startup

  Hello!

  I have a problem with my Satellite M70-309, so for two times after logo Toshiba, Windows Xp (home sp2) does not start.
  The result is a WHITE & BLACK SCREEN.
  So I turned off manually appeared then black screen where I can choose if starting normally, last good configuration etc...

  That's happened?
  Is a hardware problem? Because my cpu died last month I changed it.

  Thank you!
  (Sorry for my English I'm Italian)

  Hi, RSC

  It is not easy to tell what can be the problem, but I assume that there is something wrong with the HARD drive. It will be interesting what happens with the new HARD drive.

  If possible also start the recovery procedure to see if the HARD drive will be recognized correctly and if the recovery procedure starts correctly. Check it using the installation in expert mode where you have access to information from HARD drive (partitions and so on).

• Satellite M70-187 - recovery made a blunder in place now will not boot

  My Satellite M70 - 187 (PSM 70) has XP on its first Linux and Ubuntu partition on the second, GRUB, Linux boot manager, on the MBR.

  I made a blunder seriously - I just wanted to inspect the contents of the recovery disc, so I booted from it. I was expecting to see some sort of dialogue (he says: 'follow the instructions on the screen' on the disk), but instead apparently he immediately away without asking for any intervention by the user. Firstly, secondly it reversed order on a terminal screen lines, a few seconds later a graphic progress bar is appeared, labeled.

  At this point, I panicked - I had not saved correctly everything, and it looked to me he was already written back his picture over my data. So I hard - power the computer off. On reboot, it wouldn't find his BONES, he had nothing except a blinking cursor. In addition, a Ubuntu Live CD says that it could not mount the hard drive. Then, I stopped to do anything to not make things worse.

  I understand that I can probably easily 'recover' my PC using the recovery again disc, but can I still save my data first? I do not think that he had time to replace the partition data, maybe it only replaced the MBR. But what really that this in the first place, without any dialogue, without asking me? Or it was all well, if only I had been patient for a few seconds? Would it help even if I ran the recovery disc again?

  I understand there is also a recovery console from MS that is included on a CD of Windows and has commands like * fixboot * and * fixmbr * who might or might not be useful, but I realize only now I do not have + have + a Windows CD, given that the recovery disk is anything but that.

  I would really appreciate some help. I'm not at total loss - I have a backup, but as for users more semi experienced, it is neither complete nor perceive...

  I wouldn't change the MBR or any other thing at this point.

  Your best solution would be to connect the HARD drive to another PC and run the recovery software to scan the HARD drive and retrieve your documents.

  Google search for "format data recovery", there are many tools you can try.

• Satellite M70 164 - screen freezes and goes black, overheating

  Hello world! :)

  Recently my Satellite m70-164 started to freeze after only a few minutes of work. The picture on the screen freezes, and a few seconds later, it becomes completely black.
  The computer doesn't even have time to warm up, and it's not stop... It's just the screen that freezes and becomes so black. I have to reset the computer by pressing the power button. (I write from another computer).

  I noticed that working time reduced whenever I have reset the computer and after some time it freezes even though I am in the BIOS settings, so I don't think it's an OS problem.
  Even if the computer does not have time to warm up, this suggests it might be a heat problem.
  So I tried pointing a fan this is low (a big, like the ones we use in the summer), and it works without problem!

  With the fan facing these, I reinstalled Windows - so no Virus.
  Laptop fan * not * continue to operate as it is overheating.
  The fan runs and it is not clogged as I've cleaned.

  So if anyone has the same problem, or ideas, please respond!
  (And sorry for my English)
  Thanks in advance! : D

  Hey Buddy,

  I agree with you. In this case, even in the BIOS, that it has nothing to do with Windows or a Virus. In this case, it seems to be a hardware malfunction

  But before contacting an authorized service provider to diagnose what part is the cause, clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This should be done from time to time (every 4 months) and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.

  Check this box!

• Re: Win 8 on Satellite M70 - 181 - are there drivers available?

  Hello

  as Windows XP support will end next April and my old Satellite still works I
  wonder if anyone has any experience with Win8 on this type of laptop.

  Are there drivers available? (impossible to find anything on the Toshiba site).

  Thank you

  All drivers for Satellite M70 series are on the Toshiba UE driver page.
  Since it is old model of laptop, drivers are placed in archive, then you should choose type of product-> Archive
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  But it seems that the drivers are available only for Windows XP and Vista
