Use of optical discs

My Inspiron 620 desktop computer came with a DVD/CD, which apparently cannot be opened ("eject") if the operating system is running. How a recovery disk can be used if the OS does not load and cannot open the door of the car?

Disoriented Bob

The red arrow points to the button of the first disc, the green box is around the button of the second drive. The buttons are vertical rectangles, which are on par with the drawer and the matter:

In this configuration, Boot / recovery media should be in the player at the top of the PAGE.  The 2nd disc is an option.

The Slim model has only 1 button HERE:

    OK so I'll try to reset my Toshiba Satellite L655-16th back to factory settings, then he started giving me the out of memory error message, but I don't have that drives it asked me to do when I got the laptop, so when I do the F8 all start up and go to the screen with the Toshiba HDD recovery resetting thing and click on it It gives me this error message:

    * HDDRecoGUI *.
    Operating system recovery is impossible!
    Not found the HDD Recovery folder on the second disc of the first hard drive.
    There is no valid disk HARD recovery environment on this computer.

    I tried various different things; Press 0 - which gave me a screen asking you what operating system, I wanted to use (there is only Windows 7) then just continued to load as usual. Put the first disc in and restart my laptop (which I have pretty well every time anyway) - which did nothing. etc.
    So yes, is there a way to create the file from HARD drive of mystery I need the disks, or maybe another way to use the disks that I have not already tried?

    > Not found HDD Recovery folder on the second disc of the first hard drive.
    > There is no valid disk HARD recovery environment on this computer.

  • Re: Tecra M9 - using the recovery disc

    Hello, can someone please help.

    I don't have a model Tecra M9. PTM90E-05700WEN serial No. Y76875H professional XP operating system.

    The problem I have is as follows - I would like to reset the machine back to factory settings, I have the product recovery disc that came with it as well as the Microsoft Office Basic 2007 license key.

    Instructions on the cover of the album simply say "insert the first disc in the drive and turn off the computer. Turn on your computer while keeping the F12 key. Use the cursor keys to select the optical disc drive in the menu. Follow the who make their appearance on the screen. »

    Problem # 1 - I only have one disc, I can certainly say that I have lost. instructions refer to "first record suggesting there is more than one. The disc I have is clearly marked "product recovery". There are some numbers on the disc namely - GMR400776EN0 and also SD124219 of CD.
    The disc is also clearly marked Microsoft Windows XP Professional.

    Problem # 2 - when I make the instructions above, nothing else that the system starts normally. I can assure you that I am pressing F12 before the opening of Windows.

    I don't get the option to select anything and even less the optical disk drive. I tried several times but always the same result.

    Otherwise, I've tried - using the F8 key button brings up options menu, ie SafeMode etc etc work, but nothing referring to fix the computer.

    Press and hold 0 then that until the computer starts.

    Best regards and many thanks

    Hello

    Tecra M9 is older model laptop so method with F8 or zero will not work.

    The instructions are nothing else than the General instructions and not written for your Tecra M9 only. Recovery image is not the same for all models of laptops. They are so different with some laptops, there is a disc only, but with some models, there are two disks.

    I believe you when you say you've got a disc only.
    How to start recovery disc installation there are three methods:
    -Start Notepad and enter the BIOS settings > change the boot order and put the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device.
    -key c close several times to start laptop. This will force the optical disc drive to be the first boot device.
    -start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu. Place the recovery disc into the optical disc drive, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.

    Please test all these methods and send feedback.

  • Re: Satellite L500D - cannot get the optical disc drive to work

    Back again with this problem and this thread began again as it appears the original thread has been 'locked' ~ been awhile so it is aceptable.

    I think that the TS-L633C TSST DVD/CD RW on my system is in fact die slowly, now I can not yet use Toshiba DVD PLAYER to watch DVDs. See http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=204206#204206 for the story.

    Using the windows tool "FixIt" on a blank DVD got all green ticks OK but when I went to play DVDs ~ nothing!

    How the reader '' hunt '' when I put any DVD in it and then fails, suggests that the reader was not not little by little and I must be looking for a new. Shame really, because I haven't used at all, hence the long time between my responses on this forum.

    So OK, where from here.

    Nearest service center is a 5 hour drive, and I will send this laptop for my financial and other stuff done busy resourses is more allow me to simply replace this system and start from scratch.

    I'm ready to buy another drive, but cannot locate any online (new) and I am not aware if there are other brands / types which would be appropriate.

    Toshiba Satellite L500D-PSLKOA-00U009 - TSST TS-L633C DVD/CD RW

    Any ideas anyone?

    To be honest, the situation is strange to me, and I think that you spent too long with all this.

    In my opinion, you have to manage fast. The fist issue is: either defective or not ODD?
    The reasons why it doesn't work with a Toshiba DVD player is not relevant at all. You can test it with VLC media player to see how it works.

    So I recommend you to follow:
    You should not change your preinstalled operating system that you use for work or anything else. Try to get another HARD drive. Swap and install the OS by using recovery disc. Test the functionality of the WEIRD with the settings to be sure that the problem persists or not.

    In the end, if you are willing to trade the player s check Manual of use and you will be find the list of all compatible optical disc readers you can use with your model of laptop.

  • Addition of optical disc to Satellite Pro L830-17 t

    I just bought a Satellite Pro L830-17 t that has no optical drive. I would like to add one, but I noticed a video on the strange replacement on similar models, there is a bracket for the reader.

    This is necessary and if so where would I get a?

    Optical disc drive is fixed with a screw. For this you need a small piece of metal that must be fixed directly on the ODD. To be honest, it is not easy to just buy it. What you can try is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. I hope that they can order it for you.

    You can also get some info on these updates.

    You will not be able to install XP on Win 7 using the upgrade disc.

Another way is out to install your system disk and the boot of Winxp.

  • I lost the disc to restore my phone and it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. Can I use the installation disc for my desktop with my laptop serial number?

    I lost my laptop computer restore disc and it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. Can I use the installation disc for my desktop with my laptop serial number?

    My title says it all. I have an old HP laptop that they do not send to restore the disc more (I don't know yet I had one; his old laptop from my brother) and I have an installation disc for my new PC. I have a Windows XP Home edition SP2 installation disc. However, as the hard drive of my laptop broke down, I don't know what version of windows it was. I think it should have been an OEM version and the sticker says it was Windows XP Home Edition.

    Now, anyway I tried to install my installation on laptop computer disc, offering series of laptop computer but now it asks me to activate. Will it work if I activate it?

    Thank you

    Unless you are lucky enough to know someone who has a generic OEM drive, which you can borrow, I don't see a practical solution for you.  I advise you to spend the money to buy one, even if you could find one to buy from a reliable source (not eBay!).  Although a generic OEM disc should work with your product key, there is no guarantee that it will work with your product key.

    If your laptop can be retrieved through a restore partition, and you can't borrow a disc that will work with your product key, then you have pretty much exhausted all reasonable or practical options.

    I finally did! I borrowed a copy of a generic OEM drive, through activation and it is!

    Thank you much for the help...

    Now I've done could you help me more? Say now, I returned the drive OEM back (don't want to make an illegal copy) and want to be able to use my current system installed to generate a system disk that will allow me to avoid all the problems I've had up to now. What would you recommend? I've read a few articles on other forums (I did some research!) but is a little confusing. I hope you could help.

    Thank you

  • Vista to 7 using the same disc?

    I have Windows 7 64 bit on my Sony Vaio laptop that I had to buy that copy on it has stopped working, a $179 I was planning on spending and my dell vostro 220 which has windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit, I was notified is no longer supported, can I use the same disks of Windows 7 to upgrade my obsolete vista which has a reaccuring virus I can't seem to get rid of. I kept the dell in good shape, maxed out the memory, added a graphics nVidia video card. I know it's up there in age but I am now disabled and simply not have extra money for a new office using the copy of Windows 7, I bought 64-bit would be really useful because I'm familiar with 7, and I really don't want the headache of 10 plus expenses. I saw all kinds of ways to burn copies of Windows 7, I don't know I have confidence in them to work. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

    No, the key that can be used with 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 is exclusively for use with the disc 1. You cannot use install both. 1 license, 1 installation, so choose wisely.

    Hello

    The drive came with the laptop or you did it yourself in the recovery Partition?

    And you're supposed to boot from the recovery disc to start the recovery process.

    You change the Boot order to make the CD/DVD drive first in the boot order. Then, you start from the disc.

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    And as a way to re - install with most of the Toshibas, you press 0 (zero) to start to start the process of recovery back to settings factory (new State) of the recovery Partition.

    See you soon.

  • Updated Windows - you can do a typical upgrade using an installation disc that's different from the language...

    Hello, I'm Michael.

    I'm a guy who lives in Hong Kong, I bought a laptop that comes with Chinese traditional x 64 Windows 7 Home Preium. I want to use this laptop as a computer professional. Because I don't want to use Chinese as my default language in my computer, so I'm going to upgrade my computer I have subscribed the TechNet, so I downloaded an iso file from the Microsoft TechNet Web site. I downloaded an English x 64 to windows 7 Ultimate. I hope it would work, but an error message is skipped during the upgrade. It is said: you can do an upgrade using an installation disc that's different from the language installed on your computer. Go online to see how to install Windows 7 and keep your files and settings.
    I tried to press the hyperlink (go online) and it does not at all. I have to ask this question to the Microsoft Answers and see if if anyone can give come me advice because I do not want to click on the custom button because there are some files saved in my computer. So I need answers as soon as possible because I could die without a PC! Thanks for all those who read this and you time.

    No direct path to the evolution of the Chinese language to English. But you can upgrade your version of Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate (upgrade Express). Ultimate has support for English and a number of other languages.
