Tecra M2 attachment recovery

Hi guys, has joined this forum because I have a problem with my laptop, tecra M2. I have no knowledge of laptops / pc please bear with me. My laptop has recently developed a problem: when you turn away he invites me to insert the recovery CD, he's not even trying to load windows. The laptop was bought a refurbished Web site model and worked well at the beginning, but I think he has some kind of virus because because the laptop has no guarantee whatsoever.

It runs in XP Pro, and all programs and drivers were pre-installed when I got the machine I had literally just turn it on and go. I rang toshiba directly, they explained that windows do not have these recovery disks more for this version of model/windows. My local pc shop wants that in the region of £65 recover the laptop. I'll probably end up going for this option, if you guys can not offer any other method to resolve this problem!

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks in advance, Dave.

Hello Dave

In my opinion you must clean install of WXP. For this you need not to have the original disc recovery Toshiba.
For the installation of Windows XP Home edition, you can use Microsoft WXP installation disc. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities, you can download from Toshiba support and download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

All Toshiba stuff must be installed in order to good facilities, but this isn't the problem, and we can put you right order.

So what you need to do now is get the installation disk of Windows XP Home edition with license key valid. Install the OS and let us know that OS is installed correctly.
Then you will get here command install with description how to find drivers, tools and utilities.
We will help you through the configuration and operating system installation.

Next time.

  • Cannot restore my Tecra A10 from recovery disc

    Hello

    I'm having a problem restoring my C disk from a disk image. The Toshiba HARD drive recovery utility seems to have disappeared from my computer.
    When I followed the instructions for restoring (be it by pressing 0, or F8 during startup to access the HARD drive recovery utility) I finally get a message saying

    "The creation of means of recovery is impossibe! File recovery HARD drive on the second disc of the first hard drive not found. There is no valid disk HARD recovery environment on this computer. »

    (I get a similar message if I try to open the Toshiba recovery disc creator in the start menu)

    Because this does not work, I tried using recovery discs that I have made previously using the same utility. I insert the disk and start the computer (according to instructions), but nothing happens and it starts Windows normally. How can I use these discs?

    My laptop is a Tecra A10 16 d Windows vista professional.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks

    As much as I know saved on HARD drive recovery image can't disappear. I guess you did a few exchanges of structure of HARD drive and now recorded image is not found by the wizard of HARD drive recovery or Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. Both of these tools know where to look for it, but if they do not find specific markers you will get this message.

    Now the only option for you is the use of recovery disks.
    Do you use this disk for the first time now?
    When you check the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer you will see the content?

    Then try to boot using the created disc. Start Notepad, and then press F12. When the boot menu appears on the screen, place the disc in the ODD, choose the CD/DVD drive on the list and press ENTER.

    What happens when you do this?

    Hello

    Last week, I bought a new laptop Toshiba Tecra A10.
    Today, I try to do a restore, an error pops up: no recordable discs are recognised on your PC or another application is using that drive. Please check the status of the drive.
    (Error code: 0D00E4-F0-00000000).

    Please help me solve this problem.

    Hello

    The error means that your CD/DVD drive is being used by another application or the inserted media is not registrable.

    I think that the error appears because of the inserted disc.
    I have read several times about similar problems and in most cases this error appears because the inserted DVD is not 100% compatible.
    In my opinion, you should try different DVD from different manufacturers.

    In my case the s TDK DVD - R worked well but run it s still a matter of CD/DVD that is installed in your laptop drive

    I bought an old laptop Toshiba Tecra M2, without recovery CD.

    Is this good?
    (I saw that on Toshiba 'support newsletter

    Is there any other way to do it? What will happen when the hard drive must be interrupted?

    In fact, the only way should be to buy an old hard drive of the laptop even.
    Will it work? (maybe the serial number is located in and stop the change?)

    You mean this FAQ:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/bulletin.jsp?soID=806477

    To be honest I n don't know what your question.
    Do you need a recovery disk?

    If you need a recovery disc, then you will need to buy the Toshiba ASP in your country. If all goes well, it will be possible to get this drive because a very few cases, it s not possible to order a recovery disc, if the laptop series is too old.

    Toshiba article explains how to burn an image that was stored on the HARD drive
    This laptop has not been delivered with the recovery disk and it was therefore necessary to create this disk using the procedure described in the article.

  • Tecra A6 - need XP disks system problem?

    I'm asking this for a friend who is not where I'm here slight inaccuracy

    A friend has a Toshiba Tecra (probably A6, but not sure). When she starts, she gets a message:

    * Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM*

    There is a Microsoft article to: [http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb; EN-US; Q307545] that describes what to do in these cried, but suppose you have access to an XP disc.

    My friend thinks that there no XP disc when she got the machine. I'm guessing that Toshiba Tecras use a recovery partition instead of providing records?

    Is this correct? If so how do modify you the instructions in the MS KB article so that they work for a Toshiba Tecra?

    Thank you

    Richard.

    Hello

    I think you should first read the user manual, before you start a question here ;)

    As you can see in the manual with the laptop is also a delivery Toshiba recovery disc. You can use it if you boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen everything that s! You return settings from factory within a few minutes.

    Alternative, you can use a Microsoft XP's disk. All drivers and tools that you need you can get on the Toshiba site.

  • Tecra A4 won't start even in safe mode

    Today I close my Tecra morning, put it in my bag to take to work, that it works but does not use it at all, and tonight when I tried to start it again, it does not start.

    I get to the screen that says:

    We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

    If your computer stopped responding, restarted unexpectedly, or was automatically closed down to protect your files and folders, select last good known Configuration to return to the most recent settings that worked.

    If a previous startup attempt was interrupted due to a power failure or because the Power or Reset button has been activated, or if you are not sure what caused the problem, choose Start Windows normally.

    Safe mode
    Safe mode with networking
    Safe with command prompt

    Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)

    Start Windows normally

    Use top and down arrow keys to move the selection of your choice.

    None of the above options, works they come back just the same screen and I have no other options.

    I also tried to put my Toshiba Tecra A4 product Recovery DVD-ROM and when I first did it is scope loudly for a minute without doing anything, and when I tried the above again, it comes back to the same screen as before.

    Most of my files is saved, but there are some that are not, and I don't want to lose them.

    Can someone give me some ideas to solve this problem?

    Thank you
    David

    Hmmm. very strange

    I think you should try to format the whole HARD drive with an original CD of Microsoft Windows XP.
    Delete all partitions and reinstall the operating system.

    If you want to save the files on the HARD drive, then I recommend to remove the portable computer HARD drive and plug it into the second computer via external USB HDD controller.

    After that backup files put the laptop HARD drive, access to the BIOS, set the default BIOS settings and save the settings.

    Then use the Xp CD to format drive HARD and new installation.

    • Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    I hope that will move things again for you!

  • Tecra M9 - where I can get hold of a cheap recovery disk

    Hi all.

    I woke up this morning to find that my Tecra M9 doesn't let me access anything whatsoever on my desktop, including all documents and the internet.
    Whenever I click on a file, it appears with a message saying that the memory could not be read.

    Someone told me that it is caused by a virus and I have to use my drive for recovery back to the factory settings.
    Problem is that I have not all discs, because it is an old laptop work.

    Do anyone know where I can get hold of a recovery disc at a low price and I am likely to lose my OS?
