Recovery to Windows Vista problem for my Satellite A200-10X

My computer was working OK. To speed it up, I decided to reformat the hard disk using the recovery DVD provided by Toshiba. The recovery failed. I have tried many many ways but keep having the same problem i.e. the process goes into a loop.
What happens can be summarized as follows: When I power-on the computer using the recovery DVD in disk drive, the computer goes into loading the windows files and then formats the hard disk, but stops about 18% through the progress. Everytime this happens the problem starts at (X:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe) where it is at ImageX Tools for Windows; and mentions that C:Program Files\Toshiba\HD2Go\sea160s_HD.wmv........WimCopyF ileEx failed. Other errors are: Error restoring image; The Drive is not ready; and ERROR: ImageX could not apply VISTA E:\05006XSP.swm Index 2 from ODD to C:\!; press any Key......And the screen goes white. There is another screen window when ithis happens, which says Administrator: X:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe open in DOS. After closing this window the Screen goes blank and the computer for while and then opens in a window called Windows Boot Manager, and says that windows failed to start, winload could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
If I try booting from the recovery HDD, there is no success. I tried powering the computer while pressing C, or pressing 0(zero) or F8, but no success. I can not go to the page where I can repair the HDD as mentioned in the users manual.
I even tried loading an old version of XP, which got loaded but would not recognize the USBs, or sounds, or DVD drive, etc.
Please help.

Hi!
Can you try a Windows XP installation disk with SP2? I think its normal after using a Microsoft installation disk and the sound will not be recognized because you need all drivers from the Toshiba website.
What you can also do is to use Microsoft installation disk, format the HDD and then use the recovery disk.
In my opinion this could be caused of a faulty recovery DVD or a faulty HDD/RAM. The hardware you can test with the Drive Fitness Test and Memtest86 (use Google for download links, all its freeware).
Bye

  • Need drivers for my Satellite A200-10X

    Hello!
    How can I download drivers for my computer (Satellite A200-10X)? There are not mentioned model.

    Hello
    On the bottom side there is placed a big label with part number of your notebook. I presume it must be PSAECE. Please go to Toshiba download page and there you will find all you need for Satellite A200 (PSAECE) model.

    <span class="postdetails">Windows Vista Drivers for 820 and 66
    I hate to say this about E-MU but the way they are dealing with Vista Drivers is unprofessional. I am a repeat customer of Creative products and was so impressed by my old Platinum eX that I bought a second to run duals for tons of audio processing. That was back in the day. Then I jumpped ship and tried out an M-Audio Firewire 40. That did not last too long beforei was completely unimpressed. So I came back to Creative... Purchased a 820 in the box. So impressed I turned around and purchased a 66 in the box just 8 months later. Both ran smooth as butter... All until i just recently built my new system designed primarily with audio production in mind.
    With a setup like this, who needs a mac?
    AMD Athlon X2 x64 Dual Core +6000 3.0 Ghz
    2 Gigs Corsair
    Samsung SyncMaster 206BW 2" Wide Screen
    EVGA NVidia 9700s 256 DDR3 Graphics
    SATAs up the yin
    and a PCIMIA to PCI Dock
    All under Vista Ultimate OEM
    And Guess what?
    Months into RTM of Vista...
    E-MU is caught pushing release dates.
    Last month it said they would release beta drivers middle of April...
    I waited, patiently I might add.
    I waited<waited some more, I try running xp drivers... computer wont even try to install them properly.
    My software waits, computer waits, turns into a gameing machine just because my all together 600 dollar investments in Creative are not important enough to leld me the drivers i need to be producti've in what i love.
    I need x64 drivers stat. I need them working, I need them installable without a glitch, a hitch, no driver signing problems, no questions, no fuss no muss. I find it ironic that you guys at E-MU are willing to jump right in there and make sure to have drivers compatable for you new products, yet faithful advocats of the most powerful soundcards you have are sitting here dead in the water because you dont find it nessesary to place priority on ready and waiting end users who have purchased long term support buy investing large amounts of moola into hardware from your company.
    Come on, its not like the 820 or the 66 are exactly legacy technology. We are talking about Hardware that is only two years old and should be usable for up to 6 years. This is deffinatly a strike against the company and just goes to show where Creative stands.
    I have stood by waiting in silence for a very long time.
    Now i think my time has come to tell how i feel and i believe there are alot of others out there that feel the same. the only items that do not work soothly are my E-MUs... go figure.
    And I have been looking forward to all i can do running both of them side by side.
    Oh yes, and that link posted above to the beta news for vista... its a joke. open up your betas, and have a real dev tell us what the hang ups are... At least give us real concreate reasons why it is taking so long.
    with that said, when you guys get yoru act together and get me some drivers, I will sit happy as a lark.

    Hello Silas,
    sorry for my bad english
    I already checked that page. On the first time I was trying to install Vista on a clean hard drive. The installation process finishes without errors but after installation Vista shows me a lot of error messages, mostly about unknown hardware. So I installed all available drivers I have found on Toshiba web site. It not helped me too much, hardware problems still remains. I could not find out what exactly causes probles. Finally I decide to install XP and then upgrade to Vista. Now everything seems to be ok. :D
    There was some hardware problems but much easier to resolve. It seems to me that Toshiba did not provide all the drivers, for example StarForce Protection drivers. Vista did not recognized this hardware on the first time.
    Now it works!

  • How to get the Windows Vista Driver for ATI Radeon 7500 card?

    How to get the Windows Vista Driver for ATI Radeon 7500 card?
    I am using a IBM Thinkpad T42 with a 32Mb ATI Radeon 7500 graphic card AGP.
    Is there any Vista 32-bit driver to update my card so that this system support Aero effect?
    Thank you.

    The Radeon 9000 driver works for the Radeon 7500 card.  I have successfully used it on a T43 with Vista Ultimate x86

    Unfortunately no.  The Radeon 9000 driver should bring your graphics score up to close to 2, but it will not get it high enough to enable Aero support.

  • Need Windows 8 drivers for my Satellite L850-A848

    hey i cant find windows 8 drivers for my Satellite L850-A848
    The short model number PSKACV is but shown in the list.....but upon searching it shows 0 drivers found......why is it so??
    are the drivers not available now....??it's a matter of urgency.....do reply

    > .why is it so??
    Hey dude . this user to user community.. nobody here can say why the drivers are not available for this series
    Fact is that here on this Toshiba page you can find a Win 8 driver upgrade matrix
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/checkWindows8Compatible.do?service=EU
    If your notebook model is not listed, the Win 8 drivers will not be released.
    Anyway you can try to install some Win 8 tools released for other series.
    For example the installation of Toshiba value added package (VAP) should be possible on all Toshiba notebooks.

  • Trouble with warranty registration for my Satellite A200

    I tried registering warranty for my Satellite A200 laptop online and it didn't work. I then had to send info and proof of purchase to Toshiba and still heard nothing.
    E-mailed Toshiba and still heard nothing. Issue 117 of What Laptop awarded Toshiba for best services and support. That's what swung me to buy a Toshiba.
    What service? What support? All I want to do is register my warranty. Is anybody there?

    Hi
    Ive got 2 different Toshiba notebooks and I could register the warranty of all my notebooks!
    These two notebooks are Toshiba European model and I could register the warranty on the Toshiba European support page!
    If you have some problems with your registration then contact the ASP in your country and ask for the help. If they have not responded till now then contact the guys again.
    I dont know whats wrong in your case but my warranty registration went smoothly and it was not a problem!
    So contact the guys again and ask for the assistance! It cannot be so difficult.

  • Satellite A200-10X: How to partitioning the HDD

    Hi there guys!
    I have a pro with my satellite A200-10X, it has only one HDD volume, and i want to make them two... and everytime i use the product recovery CD, it formats the HDD... but i do not know how to partition the HDD two get two volume spaces...
    and whats worse is that when i keep on doing that over and over it eats the HDD free space... so how can i partition the HDD and recover the 200GB space the computer originally have?
    i appreciate your help ..
    thanx

    Hello Sherif
    If you use delivered recovery media you have follow options:
    1. the whole HDD capacity can be used for partition C
    2. the HDD capacity can be split and you can create two partitions
    When you use both options Vista will create 1,4 GB partition but this partition will not be visible when you use OS.
    If you want to have two partitions (C and D) start recovery procedure and after choosing the language use SETUP button on the right side. In the middle of the screen occurs small window and there you can set how much capacity should be reserved for partition C. when the recovery procedure is finished and Vista starts open Computer Management.
    On the left side choose Disk Management. After doing this on the left side you will see partition marked as black. This is second partition but still not visible. Click there with right mouse button and choose option to create logical drive. Follow the setup procedure.
    After few steps this partition will be set as logical drive and after formatting it will be visible in Vista Explorer.
    If you have more questions please post again.

  • Drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit on Satellite L300-1AM

    When I can get drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit? Or I need to intall 32-bit drivers on my 64-bit Vista operating system?
    Please links ;)

    [Toshiba - Download Drivers|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp]
    In the Drivers Search Page (the link above) select these filters:
    _Product type:_ +Notebook+
    _Family:_ +Satellite+
    _Product Series:_ +Satellite A Series+ (don't try the L series if you want to find anything useful)
    _Operating System:_ +Windows Vista 64 Bit+
    _Country:_ +World Wide+ (you have to select this in order to get rid of those multiple country options available for the modem)
    _Language:_ +English+ (obviously)
    Don't modify any other filter. The results will be about 100 (maybe more, but the site is set to show up to 100 results).
    Advices:
    1. Download the latest versions only (there's no point in downloading multiple versions of the same driver, yet they will be shown in the search results area)
    2. Download what's specific to your laptop only (network - RealTek, both wired and wireless; chipset and graphics - Intel; modem - Toshiba; webcam - Chicony; there's no point in downloading anything from otehr vendors - except maybe the touchpad, but Windows can handle it properly without aditional drivers)
    3. Don't download any BIOS or Firmware file; they might not be for your notebook, and installing the wrong ones is a sure path to screwing up your notebook (and losing the warranty); if you need them upgraded, go to the download page for your specific model, Windows XP or Windows Vista 32 Bit drivers (since they are OS independent anyway)
    Toshiba utilities (DVD Player, ConfigFree, etc.) should be OK too (again, download the latest version only).
    BTW, I own 2 Toshiba notebooks (L300-1AM and L300-1AN; quite similar, the differences are in HDD and CPU only) and I had the same problem: no 64-bit drivers (and the same "support"). Quite strange the idea that Toshiba is testing these 64-bit drivers before releasing them (according to a previous post), since the same drivers, for the very same chipsets - but installed on other models - are available. Windows Vista 64-bit is out on the market for nearly 2 years now, the production of these models has already been stopped (and I assume they have not been produced during one night only :) ), yet they had no time to test the drivers... High-class support from Toshiba!

  • Iphone and Windows Vista problem

    Okay, so I have windows vista and the iphone seems to be having a hard time with that.
    When I plug my Iphone into my computer it recognizes the apple device and asks if I want to import picture. In itunes it shows the button that the Iphone is plugged in and synced, however, when I press that button nothing happens. I can't add any photos to it because everytime I try there is some kind of error. What can I do?

    Same exact problem!
    Upon returning home after picking up the long awaited iPhone 2, I discovered that my iTunes and/or Windows Vista would not detect the iPhone, and I’ve been searching the Internet for a solution since (going on day two now). Apparently, Vista and the latest iTunes have had this problem quite a lot.
    It’s really a shame, as I think Apple is missing a singular opportunity to use the iPhone as a transition drug to more Apple products. I for one have been looking for a reason to dump my Dell and pick up a MacBook Pro, and the iPhone seemed to be it.
    However, if I get caught in the middle of a ******* match between Apple and Microsoft, well, they both lose.
    When you spend this kind of money, it is imperative that the thing works out-of-the-box. I will never purchase a Dell again for just this reason. Now, if I purchase a Lada, well, I'm expecting to put in some hours and blood to get the thing air born, but an Apple product? No way.
    Please help me become an Apple customer.
