How to get Vista Installation Disk from Toshiba?

I've been working with Microsoft support to resolve a security issue on my Satellite Pro A210, and have now been asked to use a Vista installation disk.
Microsoft says that I am entitled to an installation disk from the original supplier of my kit - Toshiba. But one did not arrive with my laptop - only a recovery disk was supplied.
How do I go about acquiring a Vista installation disk from Toshiba?
Regards,
Kevin C.

Mores is right. Toshiba doesnt offer installations CD with operating system only. you will get recovery image.
Recovery image definition:
+Recovery Image is an exact copy of a computer's hard drive and contains the exact, byte-by-byte copy of a hard drive partition.+
+The copy includes all the partition information, boot sectors, the file allocation table, operating system installation and different application software.+
+Using Recovery installation CDs/DVDs, you can restore your system after heavy data loss caused by an operating system crash, virus attack or hardware failure complete.+
+Recovery image installation procedure allows the user easy and fast system installation. Unfortunately it is not possible to restore only certain files from a disk image.+
+Every recovery image is designed for one specific notebook model and it can not be used for any other notebook series.+

Is the Vista Upgrade Disk from Toshiba a Recovery Disk or a normal Vista Upgrade CD?

Hello,
My status has now moved from COA Validated to POP Validated so I wondered how much longer it would take for the shipping. Also has anyone received the disk or know whether it is a Recovery Disk or a Upgrade Disk.
Surely they would have to lock it to Toshiba computers only? How exactly does it work?
If anyone knows please post :)
Thanks,
Stephen

Contacted Modus via phone today and my status has changed from COA to POP/COA they explained that means that all checks are ok and card details have been confirmed. They gave a possible delivery date sometime mid March and to just keep checking the site for the date as it will be posted. They said there is no need to do anything else. Hope this helps those waiting.

Getting New Hard disk from Toshiba for E45t-A4100 . Do I still need recovery media

Hi,
My hard drive crashed and after the online troubleshooting was directed to go for a new hard drive which I did as the laptop is in warranty.
However I am asked to get a recovery media too(as I do not have one created earlier).
My query is will the new hard drive not come with windows preinstalled. What extra will the recovery media have to help me. (Sorry if the questions sound dumb)
Thanks
Dr. Manoj Yadav
Solved!

New hard drive is blank, recovery media is needed.
If the drive you have will load in safe mode you could try to burn your own recovery media, if not you will have to order recovery media.

Re: Satellite L40 PSL48E: Can I create a installation disk from Vista partition

Hi,
my Satellite L40 PSL48E came with a Vista recovery partition.
As I despise Vista I bought a replacement drive and installed a new hard-drive and installed XP pro.
I retained the original drive in case i ever had to claim under warranty.
I now find that due to work commitments I have to occsionally use the despised Vista rubbish and wonder if it is possible to create a Installation disk from the partition on the original drive so tha ti can create a dual boot system on my new drive.
I am very reluctant to BUY a new Vista CD since I already have a fully legal copy on a drive which I am not using and I will only use it VERY rarely for this one work commitment.
Any information gratefully received
Thanks Ron

OK and thanks.
My next problem is this. I have XP on the main partition and WinRE on the hidden partition. How the heck do I get at the hidden partition. I don't have any boot disks ( none were provided with the machine when I bought it new. Pressing F8 only takes me the the normal XP options Safe boot boot as normal etc.
I've tried f10 and f12 and f11 tas I've seen these suggested on a few newsgroup posts. Anyone got any ideas please.
Toshiba Recovery Disc creatoe seems to be the key from what i read but if this is not present how do i get to the hidden partition and run it?
HELP please. How i hate the fact that manufacturers don't provide a proper CD or DVD anymore it is a right PITA.

How can I create a disk image of snow leopard installer disk from my Imac which runs it?

how can I create a disk image of snow leopard installer disk from my Imac which runs it? It came without DVD installer, and I want to make a copy of it's OS installer but can't find out how.

You need to have the disc in order to create disk image of snow leopard installer disc. What did your machine ship with? If something later than SL, then why? If earlier, then you can buy the SL installer disc and make the disk image.

I want to create an "up to date" installation disk from my own one. So after installing the system shouldn't need to download any update. Is that possible? If so, how? Thanks.

I know how to make an installation disk without things that I won't use and that can be burnt in a single layer DVD. But I want to make one that would be up to date with all the updates that have been released until now included.
Is that possible? How do I download the updates? How do y include them in the DVD? I would be great if I don't have to isntall them manually after installing the macosx.
I think there should be two ways of doing so:
1.- Include the updates in the DVD and execute them after the system installation.
2.- That the installation itself were up to date.
Can anyone help me? Thak you.

I don't believe it is. TimeCapsule restore would be limited to the same platform it was backed up from?
I think what the OP is after is the idea of slipstreamed DVD including Snow Leopard *&* the latest combo updates. In the Windows world this is referred to as a slipstreamed install.
For example you could have the latest build of SL plus the latest combo update slipstreamed in and this should work flexibly across a number of platforms.
Unfortunately though I don't know if it's possible with OSX. It's a real time-saver in the Windows world though if you have a number of machines to deploy or if you're constantly building/assembling VMs for example.

Recovery Disks From Toshiba

I'm considering ordering a recovery disk from Toshiba for my Satellite L870D P/N PSKFQU-00D007 so that I can re-install Windows 8 clean. I purchased my laptop from ToshibaDirect. I can't make my own recovery disks because my hard drive has already been reformatted. Does anyone have experience with this? Will the disks I get from Toshiba have all the files and drivers I need for a complete reinstall of the OS?

Satellite L870D-ST3NX1 (PSKFQU-00D007)
When you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media everything is restored. It's not like installing Windows.
For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery media, which begins on p. 57 of the User's Guide.
Satellite/Satellite Pro C800/L800/S800 Series User’s Guide
Be sure to follow these instructions when you upgrade to Windows 8.1.

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu

How to get all the values from the dropdown menu
I need to be able to extract all values from the dropdown menu; I know how to get all those values as a string, but I need to be able to access each item; (the value in a dropdown menu will change dynamically)
How do I get number of item is selection dropdown?
How do I extract a ?name? for each value, one by one?
How do I change a selection by referring to particular index of the item in a dropdown menu?
Here is the Path to dropdown menu that I'm trying to access (form contains number of similar dropdowns)
RSWApp.om.GetElementByPath "window(index=0).form(id=""aspnetForm"" | action=""advancedsearch.aspx"" | index=0).formelement[SELECT](name=""ctl00$MainContent$hardwareBrand"" | id=""ctl00_MainContent_hardwareBrand"" | index=16)", element
Message was edited by: testtest

The findElement method allows various attributes to be used to search. Take the following two examples for the element below:
<Select Name=ProdType ID=testProd>
</Select>
I can find the element based on its name or any other attribute, I just need to specify what I am looking for. To find it by name I would do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("ProdType","SELECT","Name")
If I want to search by id I could do the following:
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("testProd","SELECT","ID")
Usually you will use whatever is available. Since the select element has no name or ID on the Empirix home page, I used the onChange attribute. You can use any attribute as long as you specify which one you are using (last argument in these examples)
You can use the FindElement to grab links, text boxes, etc.
The next example grabs from a link on a page
Home
Set x = RSWApp.om.FindElement("Home","A","innerText")
I hope this helps clear it up.

How to get the return values from a web page

Hi,
What kind of web page do you have? Do you have possibility to for example make RFCs? Then you could trigger events (with parameters that could "return" the values) and the workflow could react to those events. For example your task can have terminating events.

How to get the selection parameters from logical database into one of the t

How to get the selection parameters from logical database into one of the tab in the tabstrip selection-screen.
Please help me for this
Thanks
Basu

Hi
Thanks, that will work, but then I'll have to insert code into all my reports.
I can see that "Application Server Control Console" is able to rerun a report.
This must mean that the Report Server has access to the runtime parameters.
But how?
Cheers
