Expert option in Toshiba Recovery Utility 1.0.1.0

Hi,
I have to use the recovery cd on my laptop (satellite sm30-801). I have different partitions on it and I would like to maintain them but the windows. When I run the recovery cd, I see an option 'for expert', which should allow me to do it, but I have no idea how to use it (since I am not an expert :) )
It opens a menu with Local, in which the only options are:
Disk -> from image
Partition -> from image
Check-> image file or Disk
Any idea of what should I do?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers,
Laura

mmhh probably you didn't get my point...

yes, because I am not dull.

I have already partitioned my disk (with partition magic) when I installed linux.
Now I have the need to re-install windows (which is not working any more) and I would like not to destroy the previous partitions.

  • Help toshiba recovery utility

    satellite pro a 210 goes through ram disk setup and comes up to toshiba recovery utility and asks for machine model.   i have tried many numbers and only get wrong machine.      any ideas

    It' s very easy to do it:
    1. You should make a windows clean installation, install all the drivers and programs you like. It can be antivirus, download manager, video players. But I recommend to install the most necessary programs otherwise more space required.
    2 Download and install ,, Acronis true Image,,. then, activate it, Google can help you how to do it.
    3 Run Acronis, Click on Backup at left side panel. Then, click on Disk and Partition Backup, the new window appears ,,Backup wizard,,
    where:
    a ,,What to back up,, - Mark the Os partition located. In my case, it's C disk partition.
    b ,,Archive Location,,- Browse where you want to store hdd backup, should be another partition for example D: partiton
    c ,,Scheduling,, - choose, don't schedule
    d ,,Back up method,, -Full
    e ,,what to exclude,, Just ignore
    f ,,Backup option,, you can choose a password protection,, and other options
    Press ,,Proceed,, and it will start backing up, it takes about 10-15 minutes.
    Now, you need to manage acronis secure zone. go to Tools and utilities and choose acronis secure zone.
    in
    a. ,,Free space selection,, - Mark NTFS C
    b ,,Size,,- choose 250-300 mb space
    Then, click on Finish and Proceed. it will proceed and then ask you to restart it. After restart it will perform ,,Partioning,, and restarts again.
    In Tools and Utilities, choose Acronis startup recovery and press activate. So, on the laptop startup you just need to hit F11 to enter the Acronis recovery utility and follow all the instructions. In 10-15 minutes, you will get the new installed system.

  • Toshiba Recovery Wizard Error f3-ff00-0021

    P500-ST6844
    PSPGSU-0Q2012
    i recently noticed that my toshiba recovery wizard option in the Windows 7 RE no longer works. All the HDD recovery partitions are intact. i tried a recovery by pressing the '0' when i powered up the system and performed a factory recovery, but the recovery wizard in Windows RE still won't come up. I even tried using the recovery media 
    I made when I first got the computer. I even tried having the recovery media delete all info on the drive before I tried to perform a factory restore. when i use the 'Windows 7 Repair disc' i also made when I got the computer to try and bring up the toshiba recovery wizard, it comes up. but that doesn't really help me because it tries to use disc based recovery not the HDD based recovery. it also doesn't help because I chose to make my recovery media using two USB flash drives, instead of a bunch of cd/dvd discs. I know the recovery partitions and the recovery files are there and intact, but for some reason the recovery wizard won't open.
    when i go to a command prompt in winre and type either startup32_tools.exe or startup32_proton.exe (i'm not sure which) the recovery wizard finally comes up but with the error f3-ff00-0021. I don't know if this is because i'm trying to bring up the wizard manually and doing something wrong, or if this is part of the problem i am experiencing.
    P.S. To Toshiba: Major Kudo's on the option in the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator to use a couple of flash drives (a 4Gb and a 16GB in my case) for creating the recovery media. It's alot better than having to burn 5 dvd discs. dvd-r disc are really expensive where i am. the flash drive option saved me time and money!

    UPDATE: (long overdue)
    Turns out the error was caused by the backup utility was using that was supposed to make an image of ALL the partitions on my system. turns out the type of partition that containd all the toshiba/microsoft windows recovery files (type 0x17). are not commonly supported by some backup software. although the files were initially there, when i ran a system recovery using the backup software, it restored the system, but blanked out the partition called 'HDDRECOVERY'. as a result, when i ran into problems later and wanted to perform a factory system recovery, it was not possible because the files no longer existed. i talked to the backup software company about this issue, but they were not very cooperative. also the inital issue of the repair option not appearing was caused by a issue with the BCD file that windows bootmanager uses to keep track of boot options. i have since learned how to fix this issue, but it is a pain in the @$$ when it occurs. My solution issue, was resolved by the fact i had thooughtfully made an partition image of the partitions 'HDDRECOVERY' and 'SYSTEM' using commodo backup. i had made them on the day i recieved my laptop, putting it on my old seagate freeagent desk drive, and had subsequently put the drive away into storage and forgotten about the backups. the most difficult part, once i remembered about the backups, was getting them restored properly. but, i was able to do it so problem solved.
    Moral of this tale: BACKUP! BACKUP! BACKUP! You can never have too many backups

  • Satellite L455D-S5976 no recovery utility

    I'm having a problem with a Satellite L455D-S5976 and the recovery utility.  I have tried the press zero while starting and get the "HDD recover mode" flash on the screen.  Then windows 7 starts.  I get the win7 startup animation then blank and the mouse pointer appears.  The hard drive has been blinking up until this point then stops and nothing else happens.  It just sits there. 
    I'm out of options. I don't know what to do now.  Anyone else have any thoughts.

  • UPDATE : Toshiba Recovery Wizard 'cannot read from source file or disk' error (satellite L500)

    UPDATE 2: Phoned Toshiba tech support again, guided by techie to begin the recovery again. Just before phoning I was able to go into recovery options and view the drive setup and all the files that couldn't be read are on the CD so I've no idea why the error kept occuring, and neither did the techie. Fingers crossed it works this time but I'm not overly hopefully given that we've just done exactly the same as I did before.  UPDATE 1: I got into the BIOS and reset everything back to defaults and yay, my toshiba recovery wizard now starts! :-D  On the down side, when trying to do a factory default software / out of the box recovery I continually get error messages with regards to copying the files, for example 
    cannot read from source file or disk
    7z.dll
    Type application extension
    size 585kb
    date modified 7/14/2009 10.26pm
    other read / copy errors include PREINST6.SWM, BOOT_32, BOOTPRIORITY, CHECKMAXPTSIZE, CHGBOOT, CPU, CPUCHECK, CREATEPARTITION, CTRLDRVINFO, DISKWIPE, DMI, DPINST32, EBLIB.DLL, ERRORDIALOG, EW3BOOTSEQ, FWLINK, FWLINK.SYS, GETHDDINFO, GETKEYSTATE, IMAGEX, INFILED, INITRECAREA, KRAIADAPI.DLL ..... at which point I decided to 'skip all' :-/
    Any explanations as to what's going on and how I might be able to fix it would be very much appreciated! :-)  Thank you!
    I have a two and half year old satellite L500 with an Intel i-3 and 4 gigs of RAM, on which I was running Windows 7.
    Admittedly it’s had rather a hard life (I ran some very demanding CAD / graphics software on it) but it had always performed well until just recently, when after suffering several BSOD (which had never happened before), the hard drive failed.
    I partitioned and formatted a brand new hard drive (which is perfectly fine and functions normally when hooked up to another laptop with a SATA to USB cable) and obtained system recovery discs from Toshiba.  Unfortunately, when I try and run the first disc, windows starts to load files but then generates an error screen with the message Error F3-F100-0003 and a request to turn the computer off.  
    When I use the windows Memory Diagnostic to get into the Windows Boot Manager Screen I get the following;
    Windows failed to start.  A recent hardware / software change might be the case.
    To fix the problem
    Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer
    Choose your language settings and click ‘next’
    Click ‘repair your computer’
    File: \boot\memtest.exe
    Status: 0xc000000f
    Info: the selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
    I can also use F8 on startup to get into the advanced boot options but selecting any of them simply results in the F3-F100-0003 error message.  I’ve run a memory test using the UBCD, which tells me the memory is fine, and tried another hard drive (which also works perfectly well in another laptop) but no joy.  On phoning Toshiba support the techie said my hard drive had failed, but as I say, both hard drives are perfectly fine / usable when hooked up to another laptop.  I’m now completely stuck as to what the problem is and how I might resolve it – any advice / suggestions would be most gratefully received! Thank you in advance :-)

    Satellite L655-S5096
    Downloads here.
    the second disc gives me the the "cannot read from source file or disk PREINST8.SWM"
    My best guess is that the disc is not readable. Try copying it to another. Sometimes that works.
    Otherwise, order new discs from Toshiba.

  • Do I need to use Toshiba Recovery Wizard?

    Hi everyone!
    I've been having major problems with my Toshiba since I first got it last March. I have a Toshiba Satellite L750, Windows 7, 64-bit, with 6GB of RAM.
    Last December (right before finals were due -_-) my laptop just committed suicide. The hard drive totally died on me out of the blue. I got a computer-savvy friend to replace my hard drive with a new one. Everything was working fine at first, but within a week my laptop ate that hard drive up too. It was BIZARRE. I went back home for the holidays and since my laptop was still under warranty then (it's not now), Toshiba replaced my hard drive, reinstalled Windows, etc. This was in January - things were fine, but it's now May and everything is messed up again.
    Basically everything takes forever to load or it doesn't load at all - desktop, taskbar, programs, internet, user accounts... sometimes Windows won't even load. Booting in Safe Mode, things work, but they still take a little longer than usual, even just logging into my user account.
    I've ran CCleaner numerous times. I've tried starting up with certain programs disabled. I've ran virus scans, and this is another problem -every single time I try to run Malware Bytes, in Safe Mode and regularly, the scan ALWAYS freezes. After that, nothing else works and I have to restart the laptop. Startup Repair doesn't do anything. Neither does sfc/scannow. Also, I tried doing a System Restore, only to find that I have no restore points. It doesn't seem to be a virus - Avast is always running and hasn't found anything.
    I ran a system analyzer on my laptop and this is some of the information I got:
    513.0 GB of available space on system partition
    Total size of hard drives is 595.6 GB
    Total memory of PC is 6092 MB
    -all of this is apparently "above average"
    HDD speed = 58MB/second
    CPU has 2 cores running at 2.29GHz
    CPU temperature = 60C (140F)
    I uninstalled programs I don't use and have tried physically cleaning my computer, but to no avail. Usually I can get past the startup/Windows logo screen fine, but once I get to a user account/desktop, that's when all the problems start.
    Any suggestions?
    Someone said to use the Toshiba Recovery Wizard/HDD Recovery, since I'm not too fussed about losing files. Do you think this will help? Would it completely wipe out Windows 7, though?
    I can access the "Repair your computer" function that leads me to Toshiba Recovery Wizard... does that mean that it'll restore everything to factory settings (out-of-box) and reinstall Windows 7 automatically? I'm assuming this because I don't remember receiving any recovery disks, so I'm thinking this might be the hidden recovery partition. I don't have the Windows installation CD, so I just want to make sure I won't end up without an OS before I go ahead and try it.
    I'm trying to exhaust all options because I'm a brokeass student and would prefer to not have to buy a new laptop... but if nothing can be done, then I guess I'll have to.
    Thanks for reading!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks Jerry!
    So do you think this will work? The fact that my laptop has eaten up 3 HDDs now kinda makes it seem like it's a hardware issue... a problem with the motherboard. I gave this laptop to Toshiba in January when I was still under warranty, and I specifically told them that this laptop goes Hannibal for hard drives -which is not normal - and that they should check if there's a hardware issue (it had eaten 2 HDDs at that point). Clearly they didn't do that, though - they just slapped in a new hard drive. If they had listened to me, then my HDD wouldn't be dying every 3, 4 months. I've accepted that I need to buy a new laptop, but I just need something to work in the meantime while I look for one (and scrounge up some cash). 
    Also, do you think the fact that nothing ever loads on my laptop will have an effect on the Recovery Wizard? I read that if even one thing goes wrong during the recovery process, everything will be completely lost and you can't even try the process again. Obviously I don't want that to happen!
    And one more question: it's not 100% clear in the manual and that is what I originally came here to post about - will the "out-of-box" recovery process delete my OS? I have a Windows 7 sticker on my laptop, so I'm pretty sure it was pre-installed... I definitely don't have any disks with me. So even if it does work, will it reinstall Windows 7/MS Office/etc. automatically for me? 
    Thanks again for your help!

  • Satellite L300 Windows 7 back to Vista with Toshiba Recovery CDs

    Hello all,
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Series L300 (2008 model) laptop which originally had Vista but I installed Windows 7 Professional on it. I now wish to return back to Vista.
    I noted that the 'Windows.old' folder created on the C:/ drive seems to be missing a lot of files and could have been altered since the date it was created. I think it would be too risky to use it to recover back to Vista.
    So my question is can I use my original set of Toshiba Recovery DVDs to get back to Vista? I want to do a full factory reset to recover my system to when it was originally purchased with Vista.
    If the Recovery DVDs is not an option and the only was is by using the Windows.old folder, if it is lacking important files could it leave my system corrupted? I am sure there is a way to get back to Vista by factory restore somehow.
    Comments and feedback urgently required!
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello sauza
    Wait a moment. You mix two different things. If you want to install original recovery image it can be done on two ways:
    # Using created recovery discs DVDs
    # Install image using HDD recovery method (recovery image saved on HDD)
    >Ok but how do I use the Toshiba recovery disks to reset my computer back to Vista factory settings?
    This question is related to method 1.
    >I press F8 at start-up---> select Repair computer---> select my language----> Then it gives me Windows 7 Options to only Restore by Disk Image which I created at a earlier date.
    This description is related to method 2 and has nothing with installation with Toshiba recovery disks as you wrote in your last posting.
    Method 2 can be used if notebook has factory settings. After own OS installation recovery image is not available anymore and recovery image can be installed with recovery discs only.
    I hope you understand now how it works.
    If you have more questions please let me know.

  • P745: Possible Bad Hard Drive. How do I get Toshiba Recovery Wizard on New HD?

    Hey everyone last week my computer was behaving slouchy so I did a simple restart. When it restarted it took me to a screen which said loading "Windows files" then it took me to Startup Repair. Startup repair could not repair the issue and I did a few check disk scans and one of them said 4 sectors of the hard drive were bad. I used Toshiba recovery wizard and restored the computer to an out of box state.
    I also installed ubuntu 12.04 as a dual boot option last night. Now fast forward to this morning and I am using Windows. After installing Toshiba driver updates the laptop is again behaving slouchy and refusing to load web pages. When I restart the computer after one to the driver updates I get an error about not being able to start windows and so I choose "Attempt to boot from last successful attempt" this works. However, something tells me that the bad sectors of the hard drive are to blame.
    So I want to order this 1TB toshiba notebook hard drive and install in the P745. http://www.toshiba.com/us/accessories/Storage/Hard-Drive-Replacements-and-Upgrades/1TB/PH2100U-1I54
    However, the hard drive will be blank and so I want it to have Windows 7 on it and the Toshiba recovery wizard which I find to be extremely useful.
    How do I go about getting back Windows 7 on the new hard drive and the recovery partition on the new drive. Do I order the recovery usb from Toshiba? https://support.toshiba.com/repair?orderType=SFF
    Then somehow this usb will assist me in transferring the contents of my current hard drive to the new one including Windows and Toshiba Recovery Wizard?
    I would be grateful for any clarifications and assistance you can provide.
    Thanks.

    Post full model and operating system!
    Your answer in general -
    You should have the option to create recovery media from your Toshiba so you don't have to buy them.
    Type in your search bar recovery and the recovery media creator or may be named something different should be there to make the 3 or 4 DVD's.
    This will restore to out of box settings including the recovery partition. - IT DOES NOT BACKUP YOUR OTHER OPERATING SYSTEM or anything you have added since it was new.
    During the recovery it will ask if you want to rescue your info or you can save your documents, pictures , etc manually before hand.
    If you reformatted the drive and installed a stand alone version of windows 7 there will not be a recovery partition and you will have to order the recovery media, you can get it here in US : http://support.toshiba.com/recovery#media

  • Toshiba Fingerprint Utility

    Hi,
    For some reason Toshiba Fingerprint Utility will now not unlock my files, can anybody help?
    I am running windows 7 on a satellite A300.
    The fingers that were scanned are the ones stored and I have no problems using the software to log on or for the occasional website passwords. The files just create an error message when i try to unlock them, strangley i was unable to unlock a few but not all.
    As far as I know I have not made any updates that would affect the finger print utility.
    Please help as these files are vital to my work.
    Thanks in advance

    Since we did not have the full Model# to assist further, our shorted check reveals A300 series came with Vista.  If you did an upgrade to Win7 and utilized the Win7 fp utility that is where the problem lies. It turns out that for some reason, in some instances, it is necessary to have two profiles active at the time of the installation of the fingerprint utility on Windows 7. Uninstall the utility, activate a second account (use "Guest" account) and then  a reinstall (util_fingerprint..).  Ran through the fingerprint registration and it saved.  It also asked for a second sampling (different finger) and it also worked. Just remember not to use same fingers as initial setup.
    After rebooting and checking that all worked, disable  "Guest" account and then try locking the computer.  The fingerprint scan worked nicely and unlocked the machine.  Another reboot and test of the login using fingerprint and all is well. Go to download page of the support site (http://pcsupport.toshiba.com/windows7)checkn download tab and follow the prompts downloads for your machine.  Worked on a P105-S9339 unit.  OR, you can try scan of fingers not previously used to setup a seconday profile.  Caution-what may have worked for some may not work for you-thus have Recovery Media handy and backup all stuff.  Caution

    I still don't understand the situation. If that message continues to appear, something has gone wrong. If you cannot restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents from the recovery partition, best to order the recovery media from Toshiba. If the hardware is okay, that will enable you to start out fresh.

    Hi
    Did you change anything on your notebook?
    I mean if your HDD recovery partition has been changed or the data o thin partition has been deleted?
    To be honest for me it looks like the OS issue. I think its not a single tool issue but I think the operating system has been muddled up
    Maybe you should try to recover the notebook using the Toshiba HDD recovery option and after the new OS installation on the notebook you could try to create the recovery disk again.
    In order to start the recovery you have to press the F8 immediately after the notebook has been powered up. Then you should choose the first option called Repair My Computer.
    This would lead to a new window and there you could choose Toshiba HDD recovery.
    But note; this recovery would format the whole HDD so maybe you should backup some data before you would start this procedure.

  • NB200-10Z: Can't make recovery disk using TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator

    Hi Folks,
    I finally got round to buying a USB DVD drive in order to create recovery discs for my NB200-10Z. I got the following:
    * Samsung SE-S084C, External USB 2.0 Slimline 8X DVD Writer, Black
    I have twice tried to create a recovery disc and am now left with two trashed DVDs. The error codes in the error window are:
    Error Code: 0E01B5-26-2A040803
    Error code: 02016F-3C-00000000
    The first time the burning was stopped, the second time the verify failed.
    Can anyone shed light on this?

    *Short version:*
    Thank you to everybody who replied.
    I decided to try out the USB DVD drive on another laptop to perform a HDD backup operation...and it failed as well. Grrrr. Same DVD media (I just hadn't got round to getting new media to try).
    I think I shall discount the possiblility of the NB200 being at fault, and therefore shall consider this question answered on this forum.
    *Long version:*
    Well, I ended up using Virtual CD to "burn" an ISO file to HDD, and then copied that to another laptop to burn to DVD (not using the USB DVD drive, but the same DVD media type). Being the curious type I decided to perform a restore using the USB DVD drive. It got part way through installation then informs me that a CRC check had failed...argggg.
    So, to cut a long story even shorter, I ended up slipstreaming the Intel storage drivers into a Win XP ISO (created from a Win XP CD I had from another previous laptop) and creating a bootable USB drive. Now I have a clean install with all the NB200 driver installed. Phew.
    Actually, to think a bit more about it, I could have attempted to put the Toshiba recovery ISO onto the bootable USB drive, but I've done the clean install now anyway.
    For whatever reason, I had such trouble getting the NB200 BIOS to recognise the USB DVD drive in order to change the boot order (it wasn't in the option list). This was with the DVD in the tray, and without the DVD in the tray. Some investigation required on my part, I think, to determine exactly what is going on.

    Hello guys, somehow I uninstalled the Recovery Utility Tool from Program files.
    And I am unable to find it again to download it. I have the recovery HDD on my HDD and I just need the utility for my Qosmio F50.
    Is there a link were I can find it?

    Hi
    Im not sure what you are talking about
    As far as I know the recovery can be started pressing the F8 button (while notebook powering up) then choosing the Repair My Computer and then choosing Toshiba HDD recovery.
    On your notebook you can find the Toshiba recovery disk creator. This is a burning software which allows you to create a own recovery DVD.
    If you mean the Toshiba recovery disk creator then I have to say that its not possible to download this tool.
    Recover the unit using HDD recovery procedure and then you could create the Recovery DVD again.

  • Toshiba recovery for R835-P70

    I recently had to get my laptop fully reset due to a virus.  I took it to Geek Squad and they recovered using Windows 7, not my Toshiba discs as one had been damaged.  Now some features for my computer can't be used like ECO utility, F key buttons, etc.  Is there a way to download this stuff or even buy it?  Thanks for the help.
