Satellite C850-1cp problems after changing italian keyboard

Hi
i've bought a toshiba Satellite C850-1cp and i had some problem (i dropped some coffee on the keyboard)
so i brought the mobile to the tech support and i decided to change the native keyboard (EN) with an italian keyboard and now i have problem with the usb port: any mouse, or others usb device are not recognized.
A friend of mine told me to restore win 8 unsuccessufully because the function keys don't work....
Please help me

In the past Ive changed keyboard several times and everything went well.
Have you used 100% compatible keyboard?
Ok maybe you should install original recovery image after keyboard replacement. To start recovery image installation you don't need function keys.
If you use Win8 make complete shutdown as described on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm and after doing this restart your notebook and use F12.
Please post some feedback.

Satellite C870-12F - problems after BSOD

Hi,
Well 15 minutes ago i was working fine with my laptop and all of the sudden i get the bsod..?
Then it restarts itself and after waiting 5 minutes for the windows screen to dissapear for a welcome screen it didnt show up.. So i tried the recovery.
Didnt work it gave me an error.. Whilst writing this subject all of the sudden it started up trough the desktop..
How is this even possible....

There are two possible reasons why BSOD would occur.
1) Serious Software issue
2) Hardware problem / fault
In case of point 1) the system/notebook recovery should fix such issue. But it didnt
Therefore I think that in your case the hardware started to malfunction.
You would like to know what part could malfunction.
Well I think these details can be provided only by an engineer who already checked the unit and ran some diagnosis software.
In my opinion its NOT HDD problem. In case of HDD issues the unit would power up properly but would not boot the system.
Possible hardware parts which could be affected are: RAM module or motherboard.
RAM issues can be solved easily by module replacement but in case of motherboard problems, the notebook fix can be very expensive in case the warranty isnt valid.

Satellite M70 - Black screen after recovery installation

So far what I have done is put in the Product Recovery DVD-ROM. Then when restarting my computer I was prompted to restore my computer to the factory defaults and said. After it went through that process it told me to remove the disc so I did. Now all it does is reach a black screen after the Toshiba screen that gives me the options to f2 for setup and f12 for options.
I do not know what to do now to make my laptop work again. Please help.

Satellite M70 is old notebook model and I would like to know do you use recovery disc for the first time. I had Satellite M70-159 long time ago and have installed recovery image many times.
Which installations mode you have used: standard mode or expert mode?
Try to install it again.
As Xardas wrote try to obtain Microsoft installation disc and check if everything works well.

Qosmio G30 - system problem after recovery procedure

I have Qosmio G30 - 148 which have Windows XP MCE, when trying to download some programs system crashed and make automatic restart.
I then used a RECOVERY CD to recover my all system and followed the instructions on the CD but when finished and rebooting the system a famous blue screen displayed tell me there's a problem in my system and windows must be restarted.
When reboot in safe mode there is a message tell me that the system is not fully installed. Please run setup again.
Could any body help me in that problem because it's a strange problem?
Note: I tried to install Windows XP from external CD but system did not know the hard disk.

Hi Ahmed
I would try to provide some useful hints;
First of all you can install the XP Pro on the Qosmio G30 this is no problem.
I assume you couldnt install the XP on the G30 because your have not installed the RAID driver firstly. As far as I know the XP would not recognize the HDD without the RAID driver.
The RAID driver installation is not very difficult. During the XP Setup procedure you have to press the F6 to include the driver from the external USB FDD drive.
If you dont have a USB diskette drive, then you could use a nLite to create a new XP CD with the RAID driver.
However despite everything Im not sure if this will help.
There could be really a hardware issue with your G30.

Satellite L450D-11G - Hangs after recovery installation

The recovery disk supplied does not work. After installing all the files, it goes into a loop from booting up with "Installing Windows for the first time, through "Please wait", to flashing up the home screen then logging off and rebooting.
Is there a fix for this?

I can really laugh when I read something like this.
Recovery procedure takes pretty long time with several restarts and it can take over one hour.
So don't worry about useless laptop.
Best thing you can do is to do something else until recovery installation will be finished.
Watch TV, read a book and let recovery procedure be done completely.

Satellite M300: bootmgr missing after Recovery has failed

I tried to reinstall Vista using Toshiba recovery disk... when i tried to do it took long time to copy files and then it asked for next disk.
Even after inserting 2 disk it still asks for insert next disk... I had no choice and i cancelled it...
When i booted again it said bootmgr missing
'CTRL+ALT+DELETE' to restart
I stuck up don't know what to do.
pls tell me sme suggestions

Hi
The error bootmgr missing appears because the Recovery procedure hasnt finished and the old bootmgr was destroyed.
It looks like your second DVD is not readable for no apparent reason.
Maybe you could try to recover the notebook using the HDD recovery option.
Maybe the partition was not damage during the recovery procedure from DVD.
So press F8 after notebook was powered up. Choose first option called Repair my Computer. Choose last option Toshiba Recovery and try to recover the notebook from HDD.
If it doesnt work then you could boot from the original Vista DVD and could try to repair the boot manager.
In worst case you would have to reinstall the OS from the Microsoft Vista DVD or you will order a new Recovery DVD from Toshiba.
Good luck

Re: Satellite A - Saving files after recovery?

Hi friends, I made a mistake.
I wanted to setup SP2 for Vista but I lost my all files. I did not understand it has not do this :( Recovery program formatted my second HDD partition.
So I am waiting your advices:(
thanks

Hi
If you run the Toshiba recovery disk it formats the whole HDD and so your second HDD partition too. In my opinion its normal and before you run recovery you should always backup your files.
Anyway, as Akuma said you should with Google to find a Data Recovery tool. I use PC Inspector File Recovery and it works really well. Furthermore its freeware program.

Win 8.1 activation issues on Satellite Pro C850-1EQ after upgrade

Hello everybody!
I face a problem after upgrading my TOSHIBA SATELLITE PRO C850-1EQ preinstalled windows version 8 to 8.1.
After installation windows demands the product key in order to activate windows 8.1, but I haven't this activation key.
I called Microsoft (Greece) but couldn't help me and told me to call Toshiba (Greece).
The man from Toshiba's technical support told me to call back to Microsoft!
Also, he told me to check here (https://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/windows8_1-upgrade-stepbystep/) before I start the process. Step No. 7 says "Remember your Windows password. You may need to enter it after updating."
Now I returned back to Win 8.
Is there a way to learn my activation key before the installation of w8.1?
I tried to find that using various tools but no one finded the key.
Plus, after the installation of 8.1, a message says:
+Error code: 0xC004C003+
+The activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked+
I trust Toshiba and I want to use the latest version of w8.1.
I would be greatful if someone technician from Toshiba could help me with this issue.
John (from Greece)

Hi
Yes, the preinstalled *gets automatically activated* when I restore or refresh my pc and I do not need the activation key.
When I upgrade to windows 8.1 it asks me the activation key in order to activate the new version.
Before the upgrade, yes, I updated win 8 and the drivers too. I always keep my pc updated.
What do you mean:
+Try this: create the Toshiba Recovery DVDs (or USB flash memory stick). Use the Recovery medium in order to recover the notebook back to factory settings. Update the Windows 8 to latest state and then perform the upgrade to Win 8.1+
Windows 8 is in a hidden particion in my PC, so I don't need to create recovery disk.
Or do you mean anything alse?
Thank you for your reply

Satellite A110 does install from recovery disk but HDD not displayed

Hi guys,
after searching the net I've finally found a forum in which I hope you can help me.
I've tried to search this forum for an anwser but couldn't find it.
I have a toshiba satellite a110 -159 which after a sudden stop didn't boot up.
chkdsk did discover a lot of problems when I connected the hard drive to another pc, but the laptop still couldn't boot from the disk.
anyways, I copied the most important data and remounted the disk in the laptop. with the product recovery discs I managed to reinstall windows xp media center installation, but after the first reboot, the laptopt didn't find the hard disk, it is not displayed in the bios.
strange though that the recovery discs did install... anyone knows how to relist the hard disk in the bios? it was listed there before the reinstall of windows xp mc... :( so it's like it did something with the bios or so.
hope you guys know what's wrong with this one.
thnx in advance!
Edit:
the disk is accessible when placed in another system or desktop system with convertor, and copies and works just fine.

I've solved it
opened the laptop and shortened the battery located on the motherboard (couldn't detach it because it was soldered).
the short reset the bios and it found the disk again
very weird though, but it works all fine now.
hope this helps anyone else if they got the same :)

Cannot access user profile after recovery to previous restore point

On Satellite laptop internet access via wireless very slow 10 mins at startup sometimes. Suspected application recently installed making early access before system ready so decided to restore.
After recovery in safe mode [windows 7] error messages starting with ie4uinit.exe cannot start also several other progs will not start...temp user is now only access to machine...no ie or applications...network wireless ok...can see files and folders on hdd. No application programs listed.
Although admin user cannot seem to regain old user profile or set up new user...no passwords used
How do I get back to my old user profile please?
Mark

As I can see you have posted this under Toshiba Product Recovery category although your action has nothing to do with Toshiba recovery installation and, for me, it is Microsoft related issue.
To be honest I didn't understand what happen exactly but somehow I feel everything is messed up.
My advice: if possible back-up all your important data and make clean recovery image installation.
After doing this you will have factory settings and clean preinstalled OS so you will be able to use your notebook without any problems.

After recovery, admin password filled in with "dots" and cannot delete or change it

Hello.
I ran the Windows 7 updates yesterday, but only the necessary ones. I did not install any of the optional ones. After the updates completed, I turned the computer on and it was stuck in a loop cycle - starting windows, then the admin password log in box came up. The box was fiiled in (with "dots" but too many to represent my password) and the screen just quickly flashed back & forth between the log in screen and "password incorrect". I tried to switch user, and it flashed back to the admin log in.
I did a system recovery to factory defaults (after backing up all data) using the recovery discs. After recovery, the "Set a password for account" screen comes up with the box below "Type a password" filled in completely with dots. I cannot erase them with the backspace or delete keys. If I highlight it and then try erase it with backspace or delete, the cursor just moves to the right hand side of the password box, but it still doesn't delete the faulty password "dots" so that I can change it.
I tried to reboot by holding in the power button and then turning it back on. After selecting country & language again, the same password screen come up.
It is stuck! Any help would be greatly appreciated! I computer I have is the HP TouchSmart 310 PC 1155-Y.
Thank You!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

That is curious with a Recovery. First, try to reset the password using NTPassword. Make the CD, boot to it following the directions. If that does not solve the signon problem, consider installing the OS from a regular Windows 7 disk of the same version, using the key from the COA sticker.

Computer problems after upgrading to Mavericks

SO many problems. I cleared out a ton of old stuff that I saw might be causing problems, and I've verified and repaired the disc, and uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of programs that I was seeing problems with in the console, but now I'm just flummoxed. It's behaving better than it was earlier, and isn't giving me the beach ball nearly so often, but it still seems like it's taking too long for a lot of things. I just reinstalled Avast and am currently letting a game update through Steam. I have the console and the activity monitor open to one side. Since I opened the console, it's been spitting out one or two messages every second, and all I can find through some internet searching is that it's something to do with the wireless connection. There's some other stuff periodically mixed in that doesn't sound good either, involving either sandboxd or mdworker. But for the most part it's along these lines:

I just reinstalled Avast
"Avast" is perhaps the worst of the whole wretched lot of commercial "security" products for the Mac. It's worse than the imaginary "viruses" you were worried about when you installed it. Not only does it fail to protect you, it throws false warnings, destabilizes and slows down your computer, and sometimes or always corrupts the network settings and the permissions of files in your home folder. Removing it may not repair all the damage, and neither will Disk Utility or even reinstalling OS X.
Back up all data, then remove "Avast" according to the developer's instructions. Reboot.
If you tried to remove Avast by dragging an application to the Trash, you'll have to reinstall it and follow the instructions linked above.
If you still have problems after following those instructions, post again.

i see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder. I see that it means that it isn't reading the new hard drive.
did i miss a step between transferring all of my information from my old hard drive to the new hard drive and installing the new hard drive into the computer. I believe that i installed properly. it was quite easy.
thanks for your help

It means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive.

Encountering problems after updating to Yosemite

Hi! I updated my iMac (Refurb 2011 27" iMac, i5, 2TB HD, 8GB RAM, 1GB VRAM), Yosemite from Mountain Lion, after getting a new iPhone 5s last week. I had to update iTunes, and to update iTunes, I had to update my OS.
Problems after downloading:
- USB ports are intermittently working.
- Illustrator CC will freeze my entire computer (rainbow beachball not even rotating). Happened twice already. Have never experienced a complete freeze before.
- iMac turned itself off from sleep mode. After arriving home from work, the computer would not turn on. I thought perhaps I was having a power button issue (I've already had the shell replaced once), but after unplugging, waiting 15s, and replugging in, it turned on. I guess it's possible the power went out, but I doubt it.
- Last night, it restarted from sleep mode after 5-10 minutes (freaked me out since I had gone to bed). I have read this is a common problem; surprised it hasn't been patched yet. I just turn it off now.
- Every time something happens and I have to restart, my background is back to default. (minor gripe)
I have done PRAM and SMC resets.
Is it worth going back to Mavericks, or are these addressable problems? I thought since I had waited some time since release, the kinks would have been worked out by now (it's been 6 months, right?). If I was just using this computer for fun I wouldn't mind as much, but it's really messing with my freelancing work flow.
Thanks for any help!

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Alternatively, see:
