• How to set the Satellite A100-596 to factory without Recovery DVD settings

  I gave my young niece of my old laptop A100-596 for Christmas.
  It worked perfectly on Christmas Eve I packed it upward, in packing of origin, but at the time my niece connected on it has lost 40 GB of data among the drives C and E - everything E drive and the dvd drive had stopped working!

  Now, no one has any explanation for what is happening, nor any reason why a laptop that has performed flawlessly for 18 months would suddenly lose 3/4 of the data on it, but whatever!

  So now I want to restore it to factory, but without a job settings dvd, how? I have all disks involved in perfect condition!
  In addition, I want to fool proof so it can be retrieved in case the person or nothing damaged, this time he cannot repeat the action.

  So I think that if I partition the hard drive so that the recovery of files is accessible by me with a password, which I will NOT share with any of the children, if they bumble once again, then I will be able to recover.

  Moreover, even restoring the system files have disappeared, so I can't even it roll back to a working condition!

  Any advice?

  Hello

  You wrote so much and I think it's the best we descuss all questions slowly.

  I don't know what you mean under non-working DVDs. Is the drive defective optical drive or media DVD is not readable?

  Anyway, the fact is that if you want to have the factory again settings you must install operating system using Toshiba DVD recovery. If you don't have it you can do clean OS installation using the Microsoft DVD facilities. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities are available on the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page > support & downloads.

  When you use recovery media Toshiba HARD whole disc will be erased. Absolutely everything. All data and partitions.
  What you want to do with recovering data unfortunately will not work. You cannot copy the recovery image and start it from the other partitions. Not on Satellite A100.

  On new A300, something like this is possible because the recovery image is stored on the second partition in folder HDDRecovery.

  If you have any other questions please let us know.

• Restoration of the factory without recovery disks

  Hello

  I bought a new laptop Sony Vaio VGN-AR870 in June 2008 and I enjoyed it a bit. It seems to me have succeeded to it bogged down and it works more slowly and more slowly and for a long time and I have remember how it is used to run when I bought it first of all I would like to restore it to factory settings and to give it another go, so to speak. I don't have recovery discs and I did everything when I got the laptop. How best should I go to this topic? My system restores are all set points in recent months, it is a step to go. Could I use a friends vista windows recovery disc and just manually install the drivers from the Vaio esupport site?

  Thanks for reading,

  Jordan

  I had an old set of model V from Sony. Backstage staff showed me by pressing F10 continuously when you start will bring you to an option of restore factore. But keep in mind that he wiped out all of your memory.

  I used to do once every two months and it has worked like a charm.

• Dell Dimension 5150 do not start LED logo on 123 + progress bar is stuck at 5% no beeps

  My old Dell Dimension 5150 has sometimes suffered from crashes during startup for quite awhile, but it now appears permanent.

  The symptom is the logo dell appears, but the startup progress bar stops at 5%, diagnosis LED 1,2 & 3 are stable on, power light is green fixed, no beeps, no response to the keys.

  In the past disconnecting the cable for 5 minutes, which gives all the internal connectors a re-allocation of places, you try to start again seemed to do the trick, but no more.

  Any suggestions where to look?

• Dell Dimension E521 starts and stops on its own at random times... a lot of attempts to repair/restore without success! What's next!

  Well, it's a bit of a long story, so I'll try to make it as short and easy as possible.

  My grandmother had the Dell Dimension E521 for some time in December of ' 06.  She had filled the C: drive with a bunch of junk and mandated the bureau with many useless shortcuts.  Later in November 10, she told me he had begun to stop and start on his own time at random, so I tried to do what I could with antivirus scan (AVG Free Edition), remove applications and unnecessary programs and try to demand for system recovery short.  While that makes the computer run faster, it still started and closed on itself.  His house has only the dial-up connection (which is almost impossible to update anything), so I brought it to my house for the best connection around 01/01/11 (9 days ago).

  I could update the AVG Free Edition and Windows updates, and it found and cleared, a Trojan Virus.  The Dell still started and shut down on its own.  My next step was to use the disc re - install for Vista Home Basic 32-bit.  He old programs saved in a folder "Windows.old" on the C: drive and completely re-installed everything back to the original.  After I checked in the "Windows.old" folder and recorded something she didn't lose (such as images and videos), I deleted as much as I could out of it.  The only thing I could not remove from it was 4 'driver files '.  For a while the computer trying to run 'chkdsk' on its own seizure began, but froze in the middle of it.  He finally ended the 'chkdsk' once and didn't try again since.  It downloaded and installed updates Windows of 100 or more on its own as well.

  After all, it still does the same thing he has with housing starts and shut downs.  The closure of downs occur not just in the middle of the execution of a given program; they occur at any time at random, even if I use the computer in safe mode.  She always goes through the whole stops the process with the "logging off" and "closing" legends, it is not as if the electric system is down.  The start-up occur randomly as well, even if a stop is purposely through the Start Menu or hold down the power button.  Sometimes, he's trying to start and shut down on its own several times without fully load.

  Again, sorry this is so long, but I would like to know if there is anything that can be done to get this thing to CUT IT OUT because my grandmother wants as his computer back!

• New HP 2011 x 20 '' LED monitor for old Dell Dimension 2400. necessary graphics card?

  My in-laws have an old Dell Dimension 2400 and the monitor exploded. I bought a new HP 2011 x 20 '' LED monitor. My WIRE went to set up, and he tells her that a HMDI graphics card is required.

  This is a pretty old computer. I think he might have as... 512 MB of RAM. Is there an inexpensive graphics card that will meet their needs?

  And besides, when they buy the graphics card, are there all the cables that they must reach a new monitor to an old computer?

  Thank you very much!

  Nice description of Dell:
  Video connector to 15 holes :-)
  
  Seems to be a VGA connector.
  
  From the description of the monitor:
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02643130
  There is an also vga connector, so you will have no problem to connect the two.
  
  No additional card is necessary, no other cable - just use the old vga cable.
  
  Your only problem might be the resolution:
  resolution 1600 x 900 set at the factory for the monitor.
  
  I don't know if you can set the resolution to Dell, you should test.
  
  Otherwise a 4:3 normal/old monitor would be better than this 'big screen' new.

• How to recover the Satellite L305D without recovery disk?

  Hey guys

  I bought my Toshiba Satellite L305D half a month ago and now my computer works do not.
  So I m thinking about restoring my laptop when I bought it first, but you know when I bought it, it doesn t come with any disk recovery so I put t know what to do.

  Is knowledge how laptop computer recovery without a disk?

  I am new to this problem
  So please if you know how to do
  Note please the specific details to show me how to

  Thank you!

  Hello!

  First of all, you should check the user manual. There you can find all the details on how to recover a Toshiba laptop.

  In any case, if your laptop came without recovery disk you can create one using the Toshiba recovery disc creator. That's why you need one or two DVDs and then you have factory on a DVD.
  If you created the recovery disk, you can boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. Windows will be reinstalled, and you get back to factory settings.

  But you can also recovery a Toshiba laptop without recovery disk. So go to the F8 advanced boot menu and choose fix my computer. Now, you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option and follow the instructions on the screen.

  If you have any other questions, you can search a bit in the forum. You will find a sufficient number of threads on the recovery procedure.
  In addition, you must check this document:

• How to recover the Satellite A100 without recovery disk

  Hi all

  I'm trying to restore my laptop A100 settings * without * a restore CD via pressing a sequence of buttons during startup (which must launch the recovery on the hard drive partition).

  It is really unfortunate, I know it can be done as I did before butI for the life of me forgotten what was this key sequence I can't find the article I stumbled initially on!

  I've scoured the web looking for this key sequence and all the proposed solutions, I fell on do not seem to work.

  Unsuccessful attempts so far:
  -Press and hold 0 power
  -various suggest 'F' keys: F1, F8, F10
  -now the delete key

  Note: I guess it may be worth mentioning that pressing F8 actually take me on-screen "start options advanced windows" but I don't have any recovery options.

  Yeh Yes, I'd * extremely * grateful if someone could point me in the right direction here because it makes me crazy... the fact that I've done this before, it that much worse!

  > I'm trying to restore my laptop A100 to the factory without the recovery CD settings via pressing a sequence of buttons during startup (which must launch the recovery on the hard drive partition).

  As I know the A100 series has not been fitted with the recovery of HARD drive partition!
  And so I doubt that any combination of keys will start the partition recovery!

  So you only chance to recover the laptop is to take the recovery disk, then boot from it.
  You can also try to install the disk Microsoft Windows operating system and then could install the drivers of Toshiba on the pilot site of Toshiba!

• Upgrading RAM Dell Dimension 4700

  Hi all

  OK I will try once again to this type. The first time I tried to type this my Surface frozen without reason and had to be properly closed. OK, I'll update the RAM on my Dell Dimension 4700 and I need help and advice before I do. My Dell says it has 0.99 GB of RAM installed. I looked inside and found that there are two sticks of 512 MB of RAM. I found (2 sticks of 1 GB) 2GB of RAM for Dell Dimension 4700 at amazon.com and intend to purchase that. So when I update the RAM I get two sticks of 512 MB and replaced with new 2 sticks of 1 GB from amazon? Are there precautions should I take? (In addition to wear an anti-static wristband) Thank you.

  Before you buy, go to http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/systemscanner

  Download and run the Crucial scanner.  This will tell you:

  • supports memory of how many are in your computer
  • How much memory is in each
  • the maximum memory that can be installed on your computer and how
  • the right kind of RAM in your computer

  Do not buy crucial, but pay attention to what the scanner says that you need.

  In short, if you have only two supports from memory, then Yes, you need to remove the memory that is in them to put in new RAM.  However, just because you can buy two memory modules of 1 GB does not necessarily that your motherboard will accept them.

  When replacing memory.

  See http://www.crucial.com/wcsstore/CrucialSAS/pdf/install-guides/ram/crucial-dram-install-guide-en.pdf

  • take precautions against static - touch the chassis first; do not touch the contacts of the RAM modules
  • Unlock the pliers and pull it up
  • Orient the new module properly - there is usually only one way correct to put in - and push straight down firmly, but without wavering until closing locks.
