What is the recovery CD contain - Satellite A100-847

Hello guys

I had a few questions on the recovery CD:

1. what the recovery CD contain? and the other CD, which is called the media something?

2 - has Windows inside? So can I format my PC to use it? And where can I find the product key (windows key)

3. what happens if I wanted to use the CD without formatting? etc., install the software?

Sorry to ask too but my laptop started to bother me. Just FYI, my laptop is satellite A100-847

Hello

I'll try to answer your question.

1 recovery media contains recovery image. Recovery image is a kind of package that contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities and some other software like WinDVD or Norton antivir application. Media, that something is not known to me. Perhaps the exact description can help.

2 Yes there the Windows operating system. Yes, you can format your laptop to use it. You don't need a product key. Just install it.

3 I don't know what you mean. The fact is that HARD drive will be formatted before you start the installation of recovery. Make sure that all your important data are saved on an external device.

Good bye

  • What is the recovery disc include - Satellite A300?

    Hello. I have a laptop Satellite A300.
    I have seen that my computer has 1 hidden partition in the first drive and another recovery file in the second disc.

    (1) what is the difference between the 2?
    (2) I accidentally deleted the file on the second drive, and now I am unable to create a recovery disc, so I need to order a new one.

    What is the disk? It only installs the operating system, or it will also include some of the software came with my laptop (Microsoft works, using the camera software and so on...)

    Thank you.

    (1) it's pretty easy. The hidden partition contains the Windows recovery environment and the file on the second partition in HARD disk recovery file, factory settings or leave a picture of her.
    The recovery environment is a feature of Vista, not a Toshiba. If you want to return factory settings, or to reinstall Windows, you need the HARD drive recovery function or the Toshiba recovery disc.
    Here is a useful link to the recovery environment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WinRE

    (2) the reason why you can t create the recovery disk is that you deleted the file. On the second partition in HARD disk recovery file is normally only for this image and this can also be used for the recovery of HARD drive feature. Therefore, you need to go into the advanced boot menu and select Repair my computer. But now it s too late and you can t use this feature.

    If you want the recovery disc, you can order directly into a new to Toshiba:
    https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx
    The recovery disk contains the operating system and all the drivers and tools you need for the Toshiba laptop.

    I m that you have right didn't look in the manual? ;)
    Otherwise you all know what I told you.

  • Cannot use the recovery with my Satellite A100 disc

    I have the Satellite Pro A100 Series, when I boot it up it tells me "Windows could not starte because the following file is missing or corrupt" \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
    I tried to restart with the recovery disk in and you press F12 for the boot menu, select CD/DVD and nothing happens.

    Any help or ideas would be great.

    Nothing happens?
    If I understand you well you are not able to boot from the disk? Have you tried another disc? I mean it might be that the recovery disk is noisy or something else.

    Check this box and give us feedback.

    Hello
    I bought an A100-749 (PSAARE) in France and I would like to update a firmware. I found a firmware version 5.90 for model PSAAR (there is no PSAARE, so I think that this game model) and within the archive, there are two files:

    s10pm590. ROM
    Which firmware to use?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Please download the bios of your computer to this site, because you there is no file *.rom. it s a *.exe which must run under windows and it works because I flashed an A100 with this bios.

    Just check this link and choose the "PSAAR' then update and download bios.

  • Re: What is the normal temperature on Satellite A200 psae6?

    What is the normal temperature on Satellite A200 psae6?

    What temperature do you mean exactly?
    CPU, GPU?

    Notes; the temperature depends on the heat dissipation of the unique pieces such as the CPU and GPU.
    The heat dissipation is higher when this part would go with superior performance.
    So it depends on the use of the laptop how temperature would increase

  • Satellite A100-847 - upgrade advice

    Hello

    I use the Satellite A100 - 847 (PSAA9E) for almost two years. 2 years warranty be over within a month, so I guees this is good time for an upgrade. I could use more RAM and a faster HARD drive (for purposes of CAD especially when I'm on the track) so I would like to know more about it.

    * What I already found out which is my laptop: *.
    (if I'm wrong with something to say please)

    1) ... May take 2 DDR2-DIMM modules; 4 GB max; which means 2x2gb. I have already 2X512GB, and it is not enough.
    -The question is what DDR2 memory! The FSB is running on 667 MHz, so I guess I should buy PC-5300/667 or even 6400/800?
    -What is the best memory for my laptop? Who gets very hot! What model is pretty cool?

    2) ... At a Hitachi Travelstar 5 K 100, 2.5 ", 5400 RPM, 8 MB, 100 GB SATA cache. The capacity is enough for me, but it's far too slow. So I guess I should to a 7200 RPM 16 MB disk cache.
    -The question here is my laptop support SATA2 or is - this just SATA1? What shlould buy?
    -My laptop does support disk 7200 RPM?
    -My laptop overheating with this drive?

    3) ... Could have a more efficient cooling system. Is there a solution to this?

    Thank you in advance,

    Hello

    Googling autour I ve found track information:

    The computer has two SO DIMM slot comes standard with the DDRII 4200 module. He
    supports PC2-4200 and use SO DIMM (DDRII SDRAM) leads to 1.8 V, accepting
    BTO/CTO for your memory needs. It can integrate up to 4 GB of hand
    memory.
    By using the following formats of memory modules:
    256 MB (16 M × 16 × 8 P) / 533/667 MHZ
    512 MB (32 M × 16 × 8 P) / 533/667 MHZ
    1024 MB (64Mx16x8P) / 533/667 MHZ

    If you want to use the maximum RAM, you must use two 2 GB. Toshiba recommends the use
    2 x 2 GB RAM DDR2 PA3513U-1M2G. An alternative to this RAM module are modules memory high quality Kingston .

    On HARD drive, I can say follow:
    HARD drive interface compliant to Serial ATA (for 40/60/80/100/120 GB).
    The computer can accommodate a HARD drive of 2.5 inches with all the following storage capabilities:
    40 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 rpm)
    60 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 tr/min/7200 RPM)
    80 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 tr/min/7200 RPM)
    100 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 tr/min/7200 RPM)
    120 GB (5400 RPM) SATA (9.5 mm thick)

    As far as I know that SATA2 is backward compatible and theoretically, you can use it, but I'm not sure about this. If I were you, I would by SATA1 HDD.
    As you can see, Toshiba has tested 7200 RPM hard drives with this model of laptop, and you can use it also.
    Maybe not overheating, but I can imagine that the plastic cover will be hotter than before. Make sure just the laptop is placed correctly and that there is nothing blocking the cooling fan.

    More efficient cooling system? I put t know what you mean exactly end-to-end you can try something like this.

  • Satellite A100-847: how to set 1680 x 1050 on external screen?

    Hello

    I have a problem.

    My laptop Satellite A100 - 847 PSA9E 2 GB of RAM, nvidia 7600 Go 256 MB.
    I also have external 22' SyncMaster 226BW WSXGA 1680 x 1050

    The problem is that with the original driver (84.68) I can not set the resolution to 1680 x 1050, but I know that the video card supports. I tried the www.laptopvideo2go.com drivers but still those who do not work perfectly.

    Can someone tell me what to do?
    Perhaps the BIOS update can fix this problem? Or maybe another solution?

    Please help :(

    According to the specification of the graphics card (in combination with the preinstalled display driver) doesn't support resolution 1680 x 1050. Supported resolution is 1600 x 1200.

    If yiou can't find solution as a result of this web page, I really don't know what you can do. This page a little better. There must be detailed how change resolution modes.

    You can increase the bandwidth in the detail of your A2DP configuration settings. Have you tried?
    The cause of blue screen could be also any other driver of system. Could you upload your zipped '% SystemRoot%\memory.dmp' or the '% SystemRoot%\Minidump.dmp' file, which contains debug information to crash to a free online storage, for example http://www.wuala.com/en/learn/features
    and let me know the details of access. I'll take a look inside if you want to find the cause.

  • Can satellite A100-847 - I replace my current HARD drive with a SATA2 HARD drive?

    Hello

    I am currently using a Satellite A100-847 with a 100 GB SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive. I plan to change with a Western Digital WD2500BEKT 250 GB SATA2 16 MB 2.5 inch laptop hard drive 7200 TRM. Is it possible to replace my current HARD drive which is SATA with a one SATA2?

    And if not what is my best option upgrade of the mine to a HARD fast (7200 RPM) disc?

    Hello!

    Yes, you can replace the current drive with a SATA2 HARD disk. You already have a SATA interface, and this means that you can use each HDD with SATA interface.

    I don't know Mr. but as far as I know the Satellite A100 cannot use the speed of SATA1. This means that the new HARD drive maybe won't work with SATA1 speed but there is no significant difference in performance.

    A HARD drive with 7200 RPM is really fast, but don t forget it produces more heat and needs more electric battery. A HARD disk at 5400 RPM is perhaps fast enough for you?

  • Satellite A100-847 battery led blinks 11 times, absence of motherboard?

    Hello

    14 months (only 12 months warranty), I have a Satellite A100-847 was a laptop perfect, but 2 weeks ago the ac-adaptar falls down and since then that if I push the power button the battery orange led blinks 11 times with the same length, but nothing happens.

    ASP did not now what this flashing means but think I have a motherboard problem.
    Now I found on ebay a Satellite A100-153 and my question is, is this the same motherboard, because it's also 945 PM.
    (Sorry for my bad English)

    [Satellite A100-847: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=120570&DISC _ MODEL = 1 & service = EU]

    THX.

    It seems that two laptop computers support the same motherboard as the Satellite A100-847 and Satellite A100-153 belong to the same series of PSAA9E.
    This series uses the same drivers and the same BIOS so I think that the mobo must also be the same.

    PS; I think that it is a motherboard problem too. Such a code is displayed only if a hardware failure has been detected on the motherboard.
