Equium A210-1C4: Winload.exe problem after using product recovery disk

Hi There
I Could really do with some help here. I have a Toshiba Equium A210-1C4 Laptop. Partitioned drive with Vista home premium service pack 4.0.
Last night I used the product recovery disk supllied with the laptop to try and restore it back to its factory settings.
and the end of the process I'm left with a cmd prompt box with X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe in the blue top bit stating:
Error: imageX could not apply vista F:\05993xsp.swm Index 2 from ODD to C:\!
Press any key to continue. That box dissappears then another one with Administrator: X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe in the blue top bit stating:
waiting for ODD to become available...
ODD Drive F: ready.
check for medium in drive F:...
Failed to initialise the raid class.
No RAID - continue normally...
X:\windows\system32>
Now whenever the laptop tries to restart it just comes up with the error message:
WINDOWS FAILED TO START. A RECENT HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE CHANGE MIGHT BE THE
CAUSE
FILE: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WINLOAD.EXE
STATUS: 0XC000000E
INFO: THE SELECTED ENTRY COULD NOT BE LOADED BECAUSE THE APPLICATION
IS MISSING OR CORRUPT
Below I then have the option to esc or continue both with the same outcome of system trying to restart.
The recovery disk has no repair option on it.
please help, I haven't a clue.
thanks

Hi
It looks like something went wrong during the Recovery procedure.
Did you try to recover the notebook once again?
If not you should definitely try this!
You are right; the recovery disk hasnt a option for repair because the recovery disk is not the same like a MS Vista disk. The Recovery disk contains the image files (its a package) and the files contains the Vista, Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software.
Therefore if something went wring during the recovery procedure, you will be not able to repair the OS installation but you have to run it again.

Blue Checkered Screen after using the Recovery Disks

I have a Compaq Presario SR2034NX XP Media Center computer. I followed the instructions and installed all the recovery disks. The screen then said to remove all disks and that it's going to reboot several times to finish the installation. During this process I got a blue checkered screen. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I took a picture of what the screen looks like and I'm enclosing a link to the picture here.

Thank you for your help and time!

I run into the same problem with fresh installation of W7 Pro on T530 with 1TB samsung disk.
This solution worked for me:
    Running check for updates will trigger this error message:
“Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.”
Solution:
1.    Go to Administrative Tools/Services, and stop the Windows Update service.
2.    Then go to the folder c: /Windows/SoftwareDistribution and delete all of the files and folders.
3.    Then go back to Services and restart the Windows Update service which will recreate all of those folders again.
4.    Then manually run the Update Service and everything should work.

T500 - Windows Update no longer works after using factory recovery disks.

I'm running Windows 7 32bit. I needed to restore my T-500 hard drive because of a fatal windows registry error caused by a 3rd party registry cleaner/tuner software... Windows 7 was DOA .
I used the factory recovery disks I created after I first fired up the laptop in April this year, all went well, Windows 7 booted up, and I went through the "Starting Widows for the first time" setup dialog, Windows 7 sucessfully activated... also verfifed it on the Microsoft website.
Went into control panel to have windows update pull down all of the critical updates released after I got my Thinkpad and I got a pop up saying "windows update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer."
I checked... the windows update service is running, so is BITS. Following suggestions from Microsoft support, I have 1)deleted the softwaredistribution folder from C:\windows, 2) run their "fixit tool", 3) renamed the CatRoot2 folder in C:\windows'system32, all to no avail each time I tried to use windows update after each "fix".
I decided to check here if anyone here has gone down this path before and ask what fixed it?
I'm waiting for Microsoft support to reply to my last email informing them the last instructions to rename the CatRoot2 folder and retry windows update failed. They now have a copy of my windowsupdate.log file sent to them.
How about it... does this situation sound familiar to anyone?
Thanks.

Satellite P500 - Restart loop after using Toshiba recovery disk

Hi,
I have got a problem recovering SATELLITE P500. I had made the recovery disks. It boots ok from the recovery disk and formats the hard drive and copies the disks to the hard drive. It then starts windows setup and reboots.
Then it goes to a loop
1) Start up and says "Setup is preparing your computer for first use"
2) Toshiba banner saying please wait... Finnishing installation may take several minutes. Pleae do not interupt or shutdown the computer!
3) Windows logo
4) Shutting down...
5) restarts and goes to 1)
It would be great if some one could help me with this.
Many thanks,
Softari

Hello
I have noticed the same on my Satellite P500 but I must say its not an issue, its absolutely normal. The notebook will restart several times (10 times or more) to finish the installation.
You must know that a lot of drivers/tools will be installed and certain restart must be done to configure everything properly.
So dont interrupt the recovery installation, just wait a little bit longer and drink a coffee. Everything happens automatically and your notebook will be reinstalled with factory settings. :)

Startup problem after use in target disk mode with a PC. Ideas?

I used my Mac 10.4 in traget disk mode. Data transfers between Mac and PC worked fine (via Macdrive 6). After disconnecting and trying to boot normally, Mac doesn't recognize internal volume. It flashes the question mark.
Tried to repair disk via install DVD - disk utility found no problems.
Reapired permissons.
Reset PRAM and NVRAM.
Tried Startup utility - found the internal volume and even after selecting it for startup, I still get the flashing question mark.
Apple hardware test found no problems.
Archive and reinstall is not allowed.
Data can still be accessed fine via target disk mode.
Any ideas how to reinitialize or reset the startup volume?

Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk

I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC    No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I get errors saying A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting.
That makes two similarities to the following thread. Both Windows Update and Troubleshooters fail to work correctly.

My Equium A210 won't load up after it powers up

Hi,
Last night my Equium A210 17I switched itself off during use. Despite several attempts to reboot, it just won't start. When I turn it on I get the message ' Windows is loading files'. This goes on for a couple of minutes, then the following information appears on the screen....
*Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings, and click "Next"
3. Click "Repair your computer"
If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.
File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Status: 0xc000000f

I never received an installation disc with my laptop , which I purchased from PC World about 2 years ago. Can I buy one ?
Hope someone can help.

Hi
Hmm. maybe you didnt receive the Recovery disk because the recover disk could be created using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator
I assume you have never checked your user manual. Im right?
Anyway maybe you could order the disk from here:

Equium A210-1C4 freezes frequently during Windows 7 startup

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Equium A210-1C4 laptop and upgraded it to Windows 7 a while ago. I have a problem whereby frequently the OS freezes up whilst starting. This occurs frequently and happens after the 'Starting Windows' text appears but before the windows logo appears. When this happens I have to press CTRL+ALT+DEL to reset the system and bring it back to life, Windows 7 starts normally after this.
I have tried reinstalling Windows 7 and it still doesn't work. I am using the 32bit version if that makes any difference. I have installed all the Toshiba drivers using the [Toshiba Software Installer|http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/downloadDetail.jsp?soid=2475695&pf=true] and the problem still continues.
Thanks in advance,

Hi
Would recommend checking the HDD firstly.
There is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test which could be downloaded from some 3rd party pages.
The tool is freeware and helps you to run some HDD diagnostic tests.
If the HDD would be ok, then the next step should be the RAM check.
The tools like memtest86+ could be used in order to test the memory.
But even if no errors would be detected, the RAM might be still affected I recommend testing the notebook with new RAMs
By the way: check if BIOS is up to date!

Equium A210-1C4 not recognizing optical disk drive

I have a Equium A210-1C4 which will not recognise the odd.
The drive has power and spins disks but does not appear as a drive in MY COMPUTER.
It also is not recognised in the Bios.
I have updated the Bios and tried to install the firmware but get message that the drive is not found.
I have tried is in another computer and it works fine.
Has anyone had similar problems and is there a solution?
Many thanks

> I have tried is in another computer and it works fine.
You have tested optical disc drive in other computer?
Anyway, if the ODD is not recognized in BIOS Im afraid ODD controller is defective. It is mainboard issue so there is no some kind of easy solution.
I don't think you can do much about that except to exchange the mainboard.

Re: Equium A210-1C4 - ATI CCC doesn't open on Vista

Recently I have been unable to open the ATI Catalyst Control Centre on my Toshiba Equium A210-1C4 notebook. When I click the CCC icon on the start menu the tray icon opens but when I right click it and choose Catalyst Control Centre nothing happens but the tray icon is still there.
I was having a similar problem a while ago but instead of doing nothing the splash screen appeared and then Vista displayed the message 'ATI CCC has stopped working'.
Any ideas?

Hey,
If Catalyst Control Center wont open it could be something wrong with display driver I would recommend reinstalling the display driver from official Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Just search for your notebook model and download the newest version. Before you install it, remove the old one firstly and restart your notebook. Then install the downloaded version.
Does this work for you?

Equium A210 171 What info do i need before i use the recovery disk?

Hi,
I have 1 recovery disk that came with my equium, haven't used it before.
On the back of the recovery disk envelope it says "insert the first disk"
I'm assuming there should be a second?
Also what info will i need to provide during the install process? like serial number?
All i have is a black and white sticker that's on the side of the box it came in, but that was so long ago.
I'm having lots of issues with windows installer not running and many others,
Windows updates won't work either and i've tried to fix those but a clean reinstall of the os was recommended.
Now at this point nothing will install because windows installer won't work.
So i think i wil lhave to attempt a clean install, but i'm not even sure the cd drive will work.
I have gotten a great run out of this laptop, bit slow for my needs today but over all great product, bought in 2007.
With a clean os and 4 gigs of ram this thing could last for years more, can't afford a new one right now.
I have really tried to avoid using a recovery disk in the past, as i've never had any serious issues till now.
Thanks

Im wondering why you get such disk together with your notebook why? Because I did not get the recovery disk but I had to create one using the Toshiba Recovery disk creator software
But my notebook is newer than your A210 this might be the reason why you got such disk
I created a recovery disk and I needed two DVD disks I think these depends on the image file size
> Also what info will i need to provide during the install process? like serial number?
This is not needed because your system was already activated.
But I recommend to backup your personal data because the recovery disk would format the whole HDD and you would lose the files.
PS: recommend reading the other threads in the Product recovery forum!

Cannot find Equium A210-1C4 support

Hello
I cannot find any information about the Notebook I have it is a EQUIUM A210-1C4 but I cannot find this in the initial drop down for support of the discontinued area.
I need to re-install the operating system but the supplied Product Recovery disk fails each time.
I now have a machine that will not boot and gets to the same stage each time.
Any ideas would be helpful
Cheers

Hi
The Equium A210-1C4 belongs to the PSAFJE series.
You can find this number at the bottom of the unit
So you have to choose the A210 PSAFJE in the driver download form
I think this should be clear enough because instead of model numbers there are no other numbers listed on the driver page

XE connection problem after using Cisco AnyConnect Client

Hello
I have a rather annoying problem connecting to an XE instance AFTER I have disconnected from a VPN via a Cisco AnyConnect VPN Agent.
Sequence of operations:
- start Oracle XE and work normally
- connect to client's vpn
- do other stuff
- DISCONNECT from Client's VPN
-> unable to connect to XE service any more, unless I reboot
The problem does not happen with other vpn clients like Cisco VPN Service, Juniper, Checkpoint.
Details:
- sqlplus connection WITH service name (eg sqlplus user/pwd@XE): FAILURE with ORA-12170
- but...sqlplus connection WITHOUT service name (eg sqlplus user/pwd): SUCCESS (weird !)
- tnsping XE: TNS-12535 error

Satellite A300-1mz Can I use the recovery disks after a HDD upgrade?

I'm upgrading the hard drive of my *toshiba a300-1mz*, but I'd be sure that I can use the *recovery disks* maked at the first boots for the s.o. (vista)
I expect your support...
thank you very much...

> how can I be sure that the disk is properly recognized before I buy it???
What do you mean exactly? Did you mean the HDD???
The A300 supports and 2.5 SATA HDD and all 2.5 HDD should be recognized properly since the SATA HDD controller hasnt any limitations.
