• When installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system?

  Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

  Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.
  Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.

  First run Memtest86 +:
  It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
  sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
  Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

• After the reinstallation of the operating system on my A30, the player will stop recognizing DVDs

  HI I HAVE RECENTLY REINSTALLED MY OPERATING SYSTEM USING THE DRIVES SYSTEM OF TOSHIBA AND NOW MY PLAYER SD-R2412 CEASED TO DETECT AND KINDS OF DVD.

  AFTER LOOKING AT THE FORUMS, I'M STILL CONFUSED FOR THE ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW IF ITS THE DRIVE, THE SYSTEM, DRIVERS OR WHAT.

  ITS AN A30 SERIES PRESENTED AT THE DEC 03. Help, please.

  Hello UCS

  The fact is: If the unit is pre-installed with original recovery media, the installation is absolutely clean and all hardware components are installed with the correct driver.

  What is the State of the drive in Device Manager? The drive is recognized in Windows Explorer? Please check the functionality with the original DVD movies? If there is no success, I guess the drive is faulty, and it is unclear to me that you can remedy this by using a firmware or something like that.

  In my opinion this isn't a problem with the operating system. It may be just a malfunction of the DVD drive.

• How can I put in a new hard drive to replace the main HD that crashed and that contains the operating system

  My HD C: broke down and needs to be replaced.  It contained the operating system (XP).  My other drive is OK.  I have all the original cdroms, including the operating system.
  I need to know if I should be careful what it is.

  Hello Nigel

  Each hard drive is different with their adjustment as far as riders go unless you have purchased the same exact model. Make sure that you set the jumpers on the correct setting for the new hard drive with the manual that came with the hard drive. You can also reconnect the cables of data and power supply for the reader who does not appear because they can be loosened.

• Why the books are grouped and preinstalled with the operating system?

  It's complaints

  My Portege has Windwosw Vista. I didn't want to buy Vista, but they were only selling with him and no other choice was possible to purchase.

  First of all, my laptop had problems to install Windows updates. I could not connect my institution's Internet System. I had to reinstall the system again.
  It's a waste of time!

  After re-installation of the button for the sound on the outside Panel does not work correctly.

  Also, when I try to stop the laptop sometimes it restarts itself - he doesn't stop!

  Secondly, I had a problem with the laptop, when an opportunity to visit a well-known site, it serves to block itself.
  Once, when he is blocked, I had to restart and its screen remained black. They took for repair. It was delivered later - repaired, but with a defect on the screen!
  What a... workers!

  When I bought this laptop he had an offer with the update of Vista with Windows 7 after their release.
  Wonderful. But just note, Toshiba has the highest price of the offer, compared to its competitors - 30 (or £) against 15 for others, which of course I'm not going to pay.

  I already paid for Vista, which is incredible, and I knew, but I had not choice not to buy!

  All right, so there is still competition in the market, several possibilities are present - install Windows cracked, switch to Linux or just buy an Apple!

  Please, take this comment seriously! And please, stop with group buying, no matter what the benefit is. It won't work for long.

  Hi mate

  Fact is that most of the laptop manufacturers sell the computer and laptop computer with a preinstalled operating system. So I wouldn't blame Toshiba or other brands for which

  You get a new computer/laptop with a new OS.
  During the past 20 years, Microsoft released 3.0 Win, Win 95, Win 98, Win NT, W2k, Win XP, Win ME, Vista and Win 7, I remember that all my computers or laptops were grouped with these operating systems

  Toshiba offers the notebook with a clean image and you can also create a recovery disk (so don t need to buy anything if you need t n)
  Of course, each of us can install a clean OS, but there are a lot of people who are happy with such image pre-installed because everything is pre-installed and configured.

  Many people have no knowledge of computer wide and are really recognizing that everything is pre-installed and the configuration does not have a lot of time

  With regard to the question of the laptop;
  What to say; you had a bad luck that something was wrong with the laptop. This can still happen that my new LCD TV other manufacturer, was dead after two weeks, I called ASP, then replaced the screen now is ok

• Satellite 1800 working extremely slow after reinstallation of the operating system

  I bought a second hand Satellite 1800. I gathered all the drivers on the site of producer s, but when I formatted the HARD drive and installed Windows XP Home edition (my own copy, not any supplied software) the laptop works extremely slow... before that during the process of reading/writing of HARD drive, you could hear that typical for the sound... now the hard drive is completely silent during operation as it's slow as hell...

  I tried to keep up with the web and it turns out that if I reinstalled the OS to Toshiba Recovery CD, it should do the thing... never mind, I didn't know I should have this CD when I bought it... so now I don't... Is there anything I could do about it?
  Help, please

  Hello

  As far as I know, this camera comes with W98SE and WME. The recovery CD with operating system Windows XP Home edition for this device is not created by Toshiba.

  You can install Windows XP Home edition and use all the drivers for the Toshiba download site. I don t know how much RAM use this device, but if the unit has less than 128 MB of RAM you can't wait the machine runs fast.

• After the reinstallation of the operating system, can't listen to music on my Satellite S1900-303

  Hello.
  I have a Satellite S1900-303 and yesterday I formatted it and reinstalled the XP system.

  After that I can't listen absolotely any audio device, even with speakers or headphones. I downloaded from this site, the correct driver, I checked the volume and all stetings, but nothing to do when I play an audio file, it seems it's ok, but I hear no voice to the chapter. What should I do?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Check Device Manager if the sound card appears correctly and that the driver has been installed successfully.
  Then check the wheel for volume control on the left side.

  AFAIK the Soundfusion Audio application should be pre-installed on this laptop. You should find it in the control manager. There you can set up the speakers.

  The last possibility is to check the sounds and audio devices section you can find also in the control manager.
  Check that the 'secret' is not marked. Check all controllers (also advanced options) and try to put it at high level.

• Satellite A100-906: Express player media use the reinstallation of the operating system

  Hello

  I use a Toshiba Satellite A100-906. I did NOT know about what express Media Player recovery cd's and I've never used it. But now I want to know what's the point of use.

  In any case I had to format my laptop and I have used the recovery cd. So now I've read that if I want to run the express media player I must first of all, insert the express media player cd stop button of my laptop and then use cd/dvd to start it.

  The problem is that I find in win xp with a Windows Media Player. Something go wrong with the format (using the recovery cd)? I had to first install the express media player? and then format and reinstall xp?

  If that's the problem, I, at this stage, to be able to install express media player without losing my data? I expect an answer. I hope you'll forgive my ignorance :).

  Best regards
  Harris

  P.S. when I boot from the media player recovery cd express I get three options 1) crash installation 2) uninstall 3) delete all partitions. So did I express media player installed?

  Hello

  So you're a bit confused. Am I wrong?
  If you want to start the Express media player you n t need to insert the CD of express media player!
  Express media player must be installed on the HARD drive!

  You have recovered the laptop with your recovery CD Toshiba but didn't install the Express media player since the EMP CD!
  This is false.

  Usually the Media Express Recovery CD drive must be run before performing the recovery from the recovery DVD-ROM products.
  Cannot install the Express media player after using the Toshiba Recovery CD!

  So first to run the CD of Express media player and then run the restore CD!

• Win7 x 64 HomePremium - it seems that I can't get rid of an old share name, despite a complete reinstallation of the operating system. Where are stored the share names? Is it possible to change this number?

  In a previous installation, I got the share name of "DData." I did a reinstall & sharing name appeared when I tried to use a different name. I tried to remove it through "Computer records management/Shared/actions." I'm assuming that the share name is imported from an old file NTUSER.dat. I don't really know where the actions are stored. I searched the registry for it, nothing helps. How can I get rid of this useless part?

  Share names are kept in the system hive, not in the user hive. You can remove them as follows:

  1 log in under an administrator account.

  2. click on the start planet.

  3. type the three letters cmd in the search box.

  4. press on Ctrl + Shift + Enter

  5. click on "run as Administrator".

  6. type the following commands and press ENTER after each:
