  • Toshiba purchased W7 recovery media for C50-A has multiple issues, totally weird---what to do?

    First I ordered the recovery 'disk' and they sent me the usb flash.I installed it in my laptop to go back to W7 after a tech who replaced my HD installed 8.1 which I did 'not' want.So  I installed from usb..BUT.....First the tobisha service station is deader than a doornail and not working.Right off the bat it would only install updates off and on.Half of them fail the first time.It will show installing updates when actually no updates ae being installed.90% of the time I get a 'toshiba provided IE 10 has stopped responding.Back and forward button work only about 50% of the time.  Clicking on close program buttons or cancel dont work.Trying to download IE 11 as either standard and adm user wont work and aborts...saying it cant find  user file.Most of my Function keys dont work.The only things I have dowloaded since installing are Avast and Malware bytes and these issues existed 'Before' I installed those..No, I do not have any virusus.No, none of the ms provided 'fixes' have wored to fix update program.No, runing sf/scan to fix any errors shows no errors. So what the hell?....the recovery media made this special order W7 even buggier than it was when I first got it..and it was plenty buggy when I got it. I am done done done with toshiba....second piece of **bleep** laptop I have bought in the past 3 years and the HD on both have gone bad at a year and half.                             

    post your full model and part number! You may already know this: f2 to reach biosbios for windows 7 is secure boot disabled and advanced boot options set to CSMBios setting for W 8 and W8.1 secure boot enabled and Advanced boot options set to UEFIThese bios settings may need changed back to work for windows 7 your tech may have changed them to install windows 8  you may have problems if they are not changed back. On your last post I put this information:If you have the Toshiba recovery usb for Windows 7 INSTRUCTIONS:First - Important Bios changes when changing from Windows 8 to Windows 7:Completely shut down laptop (Shut down Windows 8 while pressing the Shift key to completely power off.) then restart computer and hold f2 when the screen goes black and wait for the bios setup utility to launch.Select advanced, then system configuration, then boot modeUEFI and CSM or legacy  (UEFI for Windows 8 and CSM or legacy for windows 7)For windows 7 change to CSM or Legacy mode.On the some models you may have to enable ro disable the secure boot before it will let you change the advanced boot mode to from UEFI to CSM.second -Also in bios setup utility select - Security, then Secure Boot, then you have to disable secure boot for windows 7.Third -While in the bio's change boot order to boot from your usb recovery first and the hard drive last.                        You will need to delete all partitions before installing windows 7 this is done in the forth step.Forth - Insert your windows 7 disc or USB and select custom install, your partitions should show up - click on each one and below you will see advanced drive options, click that and you will have options to format - format each one, then delete each one. You will be left with one raw partition, select to install and windows will do the rest while installing the operating system. post your results! Sometimes you do get a bad copy of the recovery media and Toshiba has sent out a replacement before.

  • Recovery media for qosmio x775

    Hi!!

    need help getting the recovery media on DVD, but any help me and will offer me the ISO for the model X775 Q7272,
    because I can not buy from Toshiba...
    thanks!!!

    Hi There isn't a ISO file to down load. You will need to go here and purchase the recovery media from Toshiba.https://support.toshiba.com/repair

  • Can't Install Recovery Media To New Hard drive

    To begin with, I know very little about computers as you will soon see. I have a TOSHIBA SATELLITE L650-ST3NX1 which started giving me a message from both Toshiba and Windows that I needed to back up my data because of a possible hard drive failure. I tried backing up my data to an external hard drive but that failed. (I do have a backup of my hard drive from last year).I ordered a new SSD and the Recovery Media from Toshiba. I assumed that I could just load the OS from the Recovery Media onto the new SSD but found that wouldn't work. I ran the Recovery Media on the old hard drive but it wouldn't complete. I tried erasing everything off the old hard drive but that also wouldn't complete. Now when I plug the USB Recovery Median into the computer it won't recognize it. I think I've probably done just about everything wrong that I could. Am I out of options? Did I just waste my money on a new SSD and the Recovery Media?

    So, a little more info on what's going on. I installed a new SSD, ran the Recovery Media USB, and recieved the error F3-F100-0003. Went into the Utility Setup and HDD/SDD shows NONE. I assume this means that no hard drive is being recognized. When I reinstalled the failed HDD and went back into Utility Setup, it was recognized. Can Toshiba Recovery Media be loaded onto a new HDD/SDD? I've been researching this online and it seems that quite a few people have had the same problem but it seems that no one associated with Toshiba can or wants to provide any answers. When I spoke with a Toshiba representative before purchasing the Recovery Media I was assured that I would be able to install it onto a new HDD/SDD. It seems that if Toshiba is going to sell SSD's and Recovery Media they should be informed about and support what they are selling. This is pretty frustrating and $$$.

  • L675D-S7016 Recovery media issue.....

    I have a L675-S7016 laptop that the hard drive failed. I purchased a new Toshiba hard drive Model # HDDR500102X,
    and installed it in my laptop. Then I purchased the recovery media disks. My problem is, When I put the 1st recovery disk in, it loads, I get the "starting Windows" icon, and the it stops. I have a black screen, and a mouse arrow that does move with the mouse. After a minute or two, I get a message that says " windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer" Then down below it says "unexpected I/O error has occured" Do I need to change something in the BIOS to continue to install the OS? Am I having the issue with the newer hard drive problem I've read about? Please, can some one help me? I would be humbly grateful.......
    Solved!

    I don't know enough about how Toshiba does things. But you ought to be able to restore from a USB flash drive.

  • Poor Support for Recovery Media Error.

    T'm trying to recovery a Sattelite laptop L675D (part no. PSK3JU-03L02D) for a friend. There was no recovery partion on the machine and it was out of warrenty, so I purchased the recovery media ($29.95). I started the process and it read the 3 CDs and then started the process of creating the partitions, but 45% into the "creating CRC files" it failed with error code  10-FA12-045D. 
    A call to Toshiba support told me to remove battery and AC for 15 minutes and try again.  Same result so another call to support.  They did not tell me what the code indicated, but checked that I could enter the recovery process via the hard drive without the CDs. They said they could get the machine running without sending new disks.  They charged $49,95 since the machine was out of warranty.  I asked that if they were unsuccessful at resolving the issue, would the charge be refunded and the support person said "yes".  We then attempted the recovery from the hard drive. (I thought this was useless since the media created the recovery partition and I would probably get the same error, but I went along...)
    After 30 minutes, I got the exact same error (10-FA12-045D) that I had got on previous recovery attempts at the same point in the process.  The new support person said that the message indicated missing drivers and they would need to send new media.  He checked with his supervisor and said the $49,95 was non-refundable.  NOT A VERY SATISFACTORY EXPERIENCE.
    I am now waiting for the next recovery media to arive.

    Hi
    If possible, turn on power, press F10 to enter BIOS mode, and run Memory Test and Hard Drive Test if any test fails you need to replace the part. Please note you need to be sure which part has failed and replace that part only then the unit will work fine. As per my understanding error code 303 is Hard drive failure.
    Let us know how it goes!

  • The usual Recovery Media woes

    Well after a lengthy search and numerous attempts changing BIOS settings I have decided to consult the experts here. I have a Satellite L850D, maybe 2 1/2 years old now and regretted the purchase almost immediately as it had Windows 8 installed! I muddled my way through for about a year until i decided enough was enough and installed Windows 7. My problem now is that I want to sell the Satellite but am unable to re-install Windows 8 using recently purchased Toshiba Recovery Media disks. I have read many blogs and been through numerous forums (some here) but am at a total loss now.  I have flashed the latest BIOS update which at least revealed the 'Secure Boot' options. Can anyone point me in the right direction please???  

    Enter BIOS by tapping away at the F10 key immediately after powering on the laptop. Is all system info, such as serial,etc intact in BIOS? If so try resetting to Default settings by tapping F9 key, then F10 again to Save & Exit. Try Recovery again.
    Btw-have you tried recovery from the hard drive partition by tapping away at the F11 key after powering on?

  • Drivers on Recovery Media

    Hello,I just purchased my Recovery Media (USB Bootable Flash Disk). I also purchased a newer version of Windows 8.1 Pro WMP. If I did a clean install of my ner version of Windows 8.1, how can I make sure that I have installed all the correct drivers and programs that I originally had.
    My system info:
    Toshiba Satellite L50t-A
    Part No.: PSKLJU-043038
    Thank You.David

    Satellite L50t-Axxxx (PSKLJU-043038)
    Essentially the same as this one. Compare the specs.
    Satellite L55t-A5232 (PSKLJU-00G009)
    The drivers and utilities for your model are here.
    Best to upgrade to Pro from the Toshiba software. It takes only minutes and nothing is disturbed. You are mostly simply unlocking features that are already present.
    Search for add features in the Settings search box. Select "Add features to Windows 8.1" and then follow instructions. Use the product key you purchased.
    If for some reason Windows needs fixing, restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using that Toshiba recovery media before upgrading to Pro.

  • Recovery Media Center not working correctly on C655D-S520​0 purchased from retailer yesterday

    I came to the Forum to see if anyone else is having the Create Recovery disk option.......  I wish I had read this as well as other topics before I bought this.  And this will be the 3rd time I have typed this out because of Forum Registration issues......am I ?
    (3rd time)  I am trying to create Recovery Media.  The booklet that came with the computer and the Online User's Manual and the information stored on the computer all state something different about the Save media option.  My issue is:
    -I start the wizard
    -Wizard allows the option of saving to USB (10 gb) or DVD (4)
    -I choose USB and insert 16 gb flash drive into USB hub
    -Wizard starts, formats flash drive, then starts
    -After half an hour, the wizard stops and the two bars (Copyng Data and Overall Process) do not one more dot for at least half an hour and then I terminate.
    -Information indicates that the total copying process should take only 1/2 hour.

    I'm not a tech support agent, but to me it sounds you're not doing anything wrong. If it was me, I'd wait longer, say, a couple hours.
    If you can't solve your issue and no one in the community can help, contact support to speak with a tech support agent at (800) 457-7777.

  • Satellite P50 Windows 7 Pro Recovery Media

    Hello,
    I purchased from Toshiba Direct a custom built Satellite P50, model PSPMHU-0CR02Y.  I ordered it with and paid extra for Windows 7 Professional installed from the factory, with media for Windows 8.  When I received the computer, I created my own set of Windows 7 recovery media.  Last week I started to have issues with the laptop related to blue screens, tech support had me attempt to restore from the recovery partition (holding down 0 while turning on the computer), which failed with error about creating partition.  Then I tried to use the media I created, which failed due to a read error of the DVD.  The last attempt was using the Windows 8 media which came with the PC, then if it worked to try the restore partition again to get Windows 7 on the laptop.  Windows 8 installed successfully, however when I tried the restore partition the only option was for Windows 8.
    So now I have Windows 8 - however I want Windows 7 back, which I paid for.  Tech support says Toshiba Direct should have also provided me with Windows 7 media, Toshiba Direct says I can get it from Acclaim, Acclaim says they don't have it, call customer service, customer service refers me back to Toshiba Direct, and Toshiba Direct says I'll have to wait for a call from a supervisor within 24 hours.  I have now repeated this telephone adventure 3 times, without any resolution or contact from a supervisor who is able to assist.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Windows 8  Pro has downgrade rights Windows 7. This gives you the ability to use your license for Windows 8 with Windows 7. It doesn't, however, give you installation media or a key for Windows 7. You need to use your own media obtained elsewhere with a Windows 7 key. It's okay even if the key is already in use, because it's used just to get through installation. Afterward, Microsoft can activate via telephone. When you ordered it with Windows 7, Windows 7 was installed as a convenience, but recovery media with Windows 7 isn't available.

  • NB505-508BL Rebuilding replaced hard disk without recovery media

    Hi All,
    I'm hoping for some help.  My brother has an NB505-508BL mini netbook.  It doesn't have a DVD drive, and so when he got the laptop, he decided he couldn't make the recovery media.
    Last week his hard disk completely died, so I ordered him a new one.  I've just installed it and asked him for the recovery disk / image / media, which he hasn't got.
    So I've been checking these forums and I can't believe what I am reading: Toshiba don't supply a link to a downloaded image for recover for software that the customers already own, but will charge an outrageous $30 to send out an image by post.
    The main problem I have is that I like in the UK, so Toshiba wont send me the recovery disk or USB. So I pretty much screwed unless someone else can help me out with any of the following:
    Is it possible to download windows 7 starter from Microsoft (or anywhere, legitimately) and install it onto the laptop, at least to get it going?
    If I got windows going and downloaded all the Toshiba drivers from the website, would I be able to create the recovery media and re-image the hard disk to have the hidden partition with all the recovery data on it?
    I'm desperate to get this going for my brother - especially as he spent a lot of money on the computer, and then I spent a lot of money replacing the hard disk!
    Many thanks for any help -

    mini notebook NB505-N508BL
    Probably your best bet is to have an acquaintance in the US or Canada request the recovery thumb drive and mail it to you.
       Order Toshiba Recovery Media
    That's cheaper than purchasing a retail version of Windows and certainly much less trouble than installing all of the drivers and utilities (which are here).
    Until recently it was possible to download Windows 7 for Netbooks from Microsoft. But that has for some reason been withdrawn.
    You can still download Windows 7 from here. You'd want the x86 English version. That DVD contains all 32-bit Editions.
    You can convert the DVD to a bootable flash drive.
       Use a USB Key to Install Windows 7—Even on a Netbook
    Note that Microsoft does not actually sell Windows. It sells product keys. Which edition you choose to install determines the price of the product key.
    I'd guess you have a fighting chance of convincing the Microsoft activation people that Windows 7 Starter edition has already been paid for. If you're successful, they will issue a free product key for that edition (only).
    This Microsoft toll-free phone number in the UK is for volume licensing, but maybe they will give you the number of the local Microsoft people for more info.

  • How to create W7 recovery media from retail Windows 8

    I installed retail W8 on my new X230T upon purchase.
    Q drive is preserved, however I cannot find a way to create recovery media from it.
    Any suggestions?

    I'm not sure you can, bitlocker ties your installation to the hardware.

  • NB205 Recovery Media Error

    I recently purchased an NB205-N310BN-G for which I thought was a good deal, but having doubts now. It came without a Operating system and the previous owner claimed he had removed all partitions as well. No problem I thought and purchased the Recovery USB Media from Toshiba, plugged it in as per the instructions, switched the boot menu to USB Option and away it goes for about 10 seconds after it reads the device it pops up a screen titled at the top:
    Toshiba Recovery Media
    then it reads
    Error: F3FF000001
    then says to
    Press OK to turn off.
    And as expected it turns off after pressing ok.
    I've check the bios and even reset to system defaults as far as boot sequence goes and followed the instructions with the same result. I can't find anywhere what this code is or what to do. I called Toshiba and the auto answer service tells me they have a new number for tech support then disconnects. As you can guess it's very frustrating. Hope some can shed some light on this problem as I'm completely lost at this point.
    Thanks
    Rick

    I am getting the exact error when trying to use the Recovery USB Media from Toshiba to reset my NB205-N210.
    Does anyone know what the error code F3FF000001 means?

  • Need to create second set of recovery media

    First set of recovery media corrupts restore and unable to create second set which is needed.  System stats below:
    Product name: HP 15 Notebook PC

    Recovery Software:
    Version 12.0.3.0
    Error:
    "This system is created from Recovery Media. You are only allowed to create one set of recovery media."
    Is there anything I can do to get a second set cteate short of purchasing from HP?  Al other options in the forums have either failed or doesnt apply.

    Sorry, but the only way to get a second copy of the HP Recovery Media is to purchase it from HP or possibly a third party vendor.

  • How do I obtain product recovery media for my Satelite Pro A100?

    When I purchased my A100, I was not given any product recovery media. I assumed that it would be pre - installed on a partition on my hard drive. Seems not to be the case.
    I wish to resize my primary partition to enable me to install linux on the space that would then be available. Whilst Linux will do that for me, just in case there is an error, I need a copy of the product recovery media for XP and other pre-installed software. Toshiba's contact details on the site are hard to locate.
    So I wondered if anyone can point me in the correct direction? I am a UK user.

    Hi
    If the recovery disk was not shipped with the notebook, then you should be able to create an recovery disk using the preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
    I think you didnt read the user manual after you have received the notebook
    Anyway usually the Recovery disk could be ordered here:
    https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
    But not all recovery disks would be available especially if the notebook series has been discontinued this means that you could not order a recovery disk if the notebook series is too old You could also try to contact an local ASP (service partner) in your country for a help and could try to order such disk there.
    Otherwise you have to use an original MS Windows disk all needed drivers are downloadable from the Toshiba European driver page.
