Satellite L450D-11G - Won't boot and dont know how to restore
Hi guys,
I've got a satellite l450d-11g running on windows 7 32 bit.
When i boot it up, it comes up with a message saying that i need to restore it due to a file called: /windows\system32\drivers/msisadrv.sys is missing or corrupt and to insert my disk.
Well i didnt get a disk or anything with my computer and ive tried everything.
Can anyone help me atall? i will be willing to pay, just need to get my laptop up and runninng again.
The f8 and '0' method dont work either.
Thanks.
> The f8 and '0' method dont work either.
Usually the HDD recovery option should be available pressing F8 at the beginning of booting procedure.
Then a Advanced boot menu should appear where you could choose repair my computer -> HDD recovery
If this is not possible then you will need to recover the notebook using the Toshiba Recovery disk.
The disk can be ordered here:

Good luck

Re: Satellite L450D-11G won't boot up
Hi all,
Last night, I logged off my laptop as normal, and when I came back to it an hour later, it wouldn't boot up.
I have three green lights to indicate that it is fully charged and connected to the socket, but when I press power, it attempts to boot up for a couple of seconds and then stops, plus nothing appears on the screen. The three green lights remain on. When I hold down the power button for five seconds, you can hear it shut down, as you would if anything was working correctly.
I tried taking the battery out, and putting it back in etc, but still nothing.
Does anyone have any ideas? I presume it is a simple case of the motherboard breaking, but was curious to see if anyone thought it might be something else.
Thanks in advance.Ah I see, thanks for that.
I have used both HDMI and VGA cables, and nothing has appeared on an external monitor. When the same task was done with a PS3 and another laptop respectively, the screen appeared on the external monitor.
I've sought advice from elsewhere, and the general consensus is that it is a graphics chip problem, and that I need a replacement motherboard. It's just a bit frustrating because the laptop appears to be booting as normal now, and all the right lights, noises etc occur, and a CD is picked up in the CD drive...I just can't see anything on the screen. -
can anyone help me with Magicjack? after I purchased US number I am unable to log in on my Iphone, I keep getting an error "YOUR DEVICE IS NOT ON THIS ACCOUNT" I contacted MJ support but they are very much useless and dont know how to fix it!
There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it. -

You have a backup of your computer, or at the very least of your iTunes media, correct?
Simply copy your backup of your iTunes media into the iTunes library on your new computer.
Connecting and syncing your device to the new computer without first recovering your iTunes media is a really, really, really bad idea. iDevices are designed to ONLY sync with one computer. When you plug your device into a new computer, it will wipe all media on the device when it syncs. The only media you may be able to salvage and transfer to the new computer would be anything bought directly on the device.
If you do not have a backup of your iTunes media, then you will want to either look at a way (using software from a third party company) to either extract the media from you iDevice or your old computer (assuming the hard drive is not toast). -
Somehow i have synced my photos from my area on to my ipod touch, and dont know how to remove the photos. Any help?
You need to unsync them. If you uses the folder syncing method either remove them from your syncing folder or change which is you syncing folder. Also see:

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Hey Folks...i'm totally ****** off !
^^
I canceled the update from Snowleopard to Lion by cleaning my keys ^^. Hit the wrong key i thing. Now i'm very weird ...only can start in Windows and dont know how to get my Lion Update now...Cant start in Mac OS X (Snowleopard) now
Please tell me what i have to do know
greets
< Edited By Host >Hello fuchs (guess), If you cancelled while downloading the 4GB Lion, no problem, download again. Snow Leopard should run (start holding the option key).
If you cancelled during the install process, I do not know. In this case you could try to start with the CMD + R keys pressed, and choose the restore, which may work if the creation of the restore partition of Lion has finished.
If that does not work, reinstall Snow Leopard with the CD (start holding the C key), after that download the Combo Update 10.6.8 to update the Snow Leopard completely, then redownload Lion (App Store, click "purchases" while holding the Option Key, find Lion, click "install"). If you want to have your own copy of the Lion installer, you have to copy the installer to a Memory stick or burn to DVD before you install, see else where.

Satellite L630-10R - Won't boot and blue screen
Hi everyone,
I recently bought this laptop that had everything to satisfy me, unfortunately, I've been encountering a problem since yesterday night and I want to try everything reasonable before bringing it back to guarantee.
I was using the computer quite casually (online games, web browsing, VoIP mostly) when it decided to shutdown and reboot. Now, everytime I try to boot windows, even in safe mode, I get a blue screen as soon as I've entered my password. The same problem happens when trying to run in safe mode.
I thought it could just be a really aggressive and efficient virus and thought it was well deserved, knowing I hadn't installed an antivirus yet. So I burned an Ubuntu liveCD on another computer and tried to recover my data from there, but to no avail : Ubuntu won't start either, instead it just gives me some kind of memdump or stacktrace (at least I guess it is, because it's got hexadecimal addresses and what looks like function names)
I'm kinda stuck and I really don't understand what could have caused this. Any idea would be appreciated. An error code that showed up when trying to boot windows, but that does not _always_ show up, is something along the lines of *DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL*
Thanks in advance,
shinHi,
sorry for the late reply, I was busy this week end but I finally solved my problem on sunday in the evening by updating the BIOS from the 1.4 version to the 1.7 version using a bootable CD. No more blue screen when starting windows and no more problem with Ubuntu either (which I had been able to run in the meantime with the "noacpi" option.)
I wasn't able to find the recovery CD like you suggested, I'm not even sure it was in the box - then again, I'm not the most tidy person in the world and it could be anywhere in the room as far as I know...), but thank you anyway for taking the time to reply. =) -

Can you please help me?
Forgot Your Account Password
For Snow Leopard and earlier
Mac OS X 10.6- If you forget your administrator password
For Lion/Mountain Lion
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.
When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow
instructions in the dialog window that will appear.
Or see Reset a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Password and
OS X Lion- Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
If you are unable to boot from an installer DVD:
(these will only work on Leopard or earlier)
1. Boot to Safe Mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down
the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
2. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each
command line:
/sbin/fsck -yf
If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command
until you do. If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK"
message, then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
mount -uw /
cd /private/var/db/netinfo
mv local.nidb local.old
rm ../.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -r now
The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when the new owner starts up the computer it will send him/her to the startup wizard where he/she can start a new user without reinstalling.
This last method does not actually change a password. It simply removes the user accounts and lets you create an initial admin account as if the computer were new out of the box.
Reset Admin Password Using The Terminal
You can reset the password by printing out (or writing down) and carefully following these steps.
First, find the short name of the admin user on the machine. The easiest way of doing this is by looking at what the directory is called in the Users folder.
Now, start in Single-user Mode. It should boot into a command line.
Enter these exact lines. Press RETURN after each.
mount -uw /
ifconfig lo0 up
cd /var/db/netinfo
netinfod -s local
Now you'll need that short name. Enter "passwd", a space, and the short name of the admin. For example, if the admin was rather prosaically called "imadmin", you would enter "passwd imadmin".
The computer will now prompt you to change the password for "lmadmin" (or whatever the short name was). Go ahead and enter a new password.
Now, enter:
sync
reboot
and the machine will reboot. The admin password should now be changed.
Another Terminal Method for Snow Leopard
Reboot the computer and hold the COMMAND and S keys down to enter single user mode. (If a lock appears and a password request, there is a firmware password. You have to know it or take it to Apple.)
When the prompt appears type the following command lines pressing RETURN after each:
fsck -fy
If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command
until you do. If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK"
message, then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
mount -uw /
ls /Users
passwd username
Enter the new password twice. It will not be echoed.
If this works then you will have to make modifications to your Keychain. See:

I just went to my iPad, then iTunes and they show up there. Under the apps it says "install' But when I do that it says the app requires ios 6.0 or later and only have 5.1.1. When I read the requrements on the app on the iTunes store on the computer it said it only required 3.1. Anyway, can I put ios 6.0 on an iPad 2 and more important will ios 6 slow down or not run smoothly on the iPad 2? Thanks.
