• How to install Vista from the recovery disk without defining partitions?

  Hello

  I have my recovery disk and I have installed a new 320 gb HHD.
  When I installed the recovery disc, it re done the 160 GB partitions in each (2 partitions more the 1 recovery partition)...

  But I want to dual boot with XP pro because of software problems and I prefer it sometimes...
  I redid my scores, 1 - 51 GB for XP pro(32bit), 2nd - 51 GB for vista (32 gb) and the 3rd - 210 gb is for storage

  How to install with Toshiba vista o/s and stuff that comes with it on the recovery disc, immediately to the 2nd partition without affecting how I configure the hard drive...

  I have about 100 GB of photos, music, and cam vids on storage, with nowhere to put them, so I can't risk, because some are copy only (so it might be a good idea to let me know how I save this s on my storage spread in the DVD please)

  If I can t, then can some1 please tell me how to get my Toshiba OEM vista off this recovery disk or a link for me?

  Hope all this makes sense lol... Thank you

  If you have so much important material best save is to buy an external HARD drive and copy all this stuff here. I recommend buying the small 2.5 external HDD and when necessary, you can take with you and connect to any computer, if you want to view or copy this file. External hard discs connected to other computers with a supplied USB cable.

  Return to your partitions.
  When you use the original Toshiba DVD facilities, you will have 3 partitions.
  WinRE - partition and it belongs to the Vista operating system. This partition is not visible, and this isn't some sort of Toshiba recovery partition
  -C for Vista partition
  Or-d/E to the DATA in the partition. This partition is recorded recovery image in the folder called HDDRecovery
  I don't know what model of laptop you have, but this configuration is on all new Toshiba laptops shipped WITHOUT recovery media.

  Using Toshiba recovery media, you will be able to get exactly mentioned structure of the partitions. Support to recovery facilities using you WILL NOT be able to install Vista on the second partition.

  So if you want to have the dual boot with Windows XP Home edition, you can do following:
  -At first, you are going to install Vista with support of recovery and on the second partition, you are going to install your version of Windows XP Home edition
  -At first you will be installing WXP and then you can install Vista on the second partition, but you must use the Microsoft facilities drive. Recovery media can not be used.

  That's all I can say from my experience with such things.

  Partitions are created successfully and then I get an error "C:\program files\adobe\acrobat restoration...". several times followed by etc

  "Press a key to continue."

  And thye ned.

  All ideas

  Hello

  Hmm, looks like the laptop cannot restore the operating system from the recovery image
  To be honest I'm not very well why this error pops up but eventually it s m related to the new HARD drive installation.

  Perhaps, you can format the HARD drive again using a clean Microsoft Windows CD (Win XP, etc.).
  Boot from the CD of Win and format the HARD drive.
  Then go to the recovery disk, boot from the recovery disc and try reinstalling the operating system

  Maybe it would work

• Satellite Pro L300 - what I can reinstall Vista with the recovery disk?

  Hey

  I dual-boot (running Windows Vista & Win7) and if I delete Windows Vista can I reinstall Windows Vista with my recovery CD?
  And I have another drive on my computer for recovery Partition so I can use my recovery CD to reinstall Windows vista if I want once I got rid of him and would it erase my win7 disk or remove the duel boot?

  My specs are:
  Intel Pentium
  2 GB OF RAM
  Hard drive 160 GB

  > if I delete Windows Vista can I reinstall Windows Vista with my recovery CD?
  You can use the recovery disk to reinstall Vista on your laptop but as Luke mentioned, the recovery disk would format the whole HARD drive. It would erase all partitions on the HARD drive and you will lose also the installed Win 7!

• Cannot find the partition recovery on the Satellite A200-1BP

  Hello

  First of all, I have a Vista Home Premium 1BP A200 and I lost the product recovery disc and I want to create one with "Recdisc.exe" product of Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator or Vista.

  They both failed because I didn't get a message "No disk HARD recovery Area!", then I looked in the "Disk management" section and could not find any partition without a name.

  There were two primary Partition which were 1.46 GB 'in good condition (EISA Configuration)"and my Vista (c).
  So, what should I do? Can I create a recovery partition?
  Or can I set the Recovery Disc Creator? (v. 5.0.0.5)

  PS: I got my computer several times with my CD, which probably used my recovery partition.
  Seriously, I'm out of ideas and I don't want to lose 50 dollars just to get another copy of disc PR.

  PS2: I used press '0' and 'F8' thing too, they no longer work.
  Is there a way I can restore without any disk?

  It seems that the recovery of HARD drive partition is missing
  The first 1.46 GB partition is automatically created by Vista and the C partition is the system partition, the partition of HARD drive recovery doesn't seem to be available

  > PS: I got my computer several times with my CD, which probably used my recovery partition.
  Retrieve you the Vista using the recovery disc or what drive did you use?

  If you have installed the system using Microsoft Vista disk then, it was a big mistake because it deleted the partition of HARD drive

  > Is there a way I can restore without any disk?
  Either you use a Vista MS disk and missing drivers, which you can download from the Toshiba page or you order the Toshiba Recovery disk don't see another solution

• Re: Tecra A4 - how to use partition recovery to recover the XP

  I recently bought a laptop Tecra A4.
  Everything was going well until I decided to install windows Vista on it.
  It has become too slow.
  I would like to reinstall the XP that comes with it.

  There is a partition recovery of HARD drive here, but im not a very experienced user I don't know how to proceed.
  I read the user guide on the HARD drive recovery utility, but by pressing 0 at startup did not help.

  Any help would be extremely aprecciated.

  Hello

  Stand by. What recovery on the HARD drive partition do you mean exactly?
  As far as I know Vista has formatted the whole HARD drive and created two partitions; one for the system (partition C) and the second partition for the restoration of the system are hidden (not visible).

  I guess you must restore the supplied XP from the recovery CD Toshiba operating system if you want to install the XP again.
  In my opinion, it's the fact and the quickest way to get back the XP on the laptop ;)

• How to get Vista Home Premium recovery media?

  I need to know if theres any websites to download the relocation of the disk for vista home premiumif anyone nows could you let me know please.
  

  No.; It does not exist.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

• Partition recovery NB200 - 10G - failed to start the recovery process

  I NB200 a customer on the bench. He arrived with complete operating system failure and wouldn't boot from the partition of the OS or the recovery Partition.

  I checked the hard drive and it is in perfect working condition. However, it seems that all is not well that I can't boot from the partition recovery even after holding doen the 0 key.

  I tried to ask him to start from the TRUNK. INI file by pointing a "revoery" to the partition option, but it just comes up with an error message saying \system32\HAL file is missing or damaged. Does anyone know how I should ask the partition to start or how could I retrieve information from image files?

  If you check page 48 in s manuals you will find an exact description how to start installation of recovery. The procedure on this NB200 is same or, at least, similar to all laptops come with HARD drive recovery image. Please check.
