Satellite U - Restarts and restarts while setup of Windows 7

I just bought my new Toshiba laptop from Harvey Norman.
When I try to set it up, it just restarts again and again and I cant do anything to stop it.
It says configuring Setup. Harvey Norman is trying to tell me it will take hours (at least 3) to setup.
I want to know is this normal or is something wrong.

Hi Hazza89,
I doubt that this would be normal. In my opinion there must be something but one interesting thing you didnt post: What Toshiba notebook you have exactly?
Theoretically if its a pretty old model so it could be not compatible with Windows 7 Who knows?!
Furthermore do you make a clean installation of Windows 7 or upgrade? IF you make an upgrade I would suggest trying a new and clean installation.
Check this!!

Replaced hard drive in a Toshiba Satellite L45-57423 and now need to install windows

I recenly had to replace the hard drive in my old Toshiba Satellite. I no longer have (and am unsure I ever had, as I don't recall that the laptop came with one) the Windows recovery disk. Is it better to purchase a new recovery disk for this computer from Toshiba or to buy a Windows Installation disk?
Solved!

Best to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery discs. All the drivers and utilities are properly installed. Obtain the discs from Toshiba by scrolling down to Get Recovery Media here.
And see my message about drives with advenced-format technology.
If you still have only 1 GB of memory, that computer can barely run. Windows Vista needs at least 2 GB. See the section Adding Memory (optional), which begins on p. 46 of the User's Guide.

Setup problem, windows xp, firefox upgrade to 4 and asked to reboot but did not progress. keeps asking to restart even if I try to remove

setup problem, windows xp, firefox upgrade to 4 and asked to reboot but did not progress. keeps asking to restart even if I try to remove

Hi marsano,
Usually the only reason it will ask you to reboot is if there is a file that must be modified that the updater doesn't currently have access to. You should try running the Firefox program once as Administrator:
* Right-click the icon and choose ''Run as Administrator''
If that doesn't help then do a clean reinstall.
# Download a fresh copy of Firefox from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/fx/ Mozilla download page] and save the file to the desktop.
# [[Uninstalling Firefox|Uninstall]] your current version of Firefox and remove the Firefox program folder before running the new installer.
# Run installer
Remember that you don't want to remove personal data when uninstalling. That way you'll still have your personal information.
Hopefully this helps!

In place upgrade to 2012 R2 fails, Setup can't continue. Your computer will now restart, and your previous version of windows will be restored.

I have multiple Windows Server 2008 R2 machines in which I am attempting to do an in place upgrade to 2012 R2, and it is repeatedly failing.
Setup gets all the way through, and it says Getting ready, followed immediately by an error saying: Setup can't continue. Your computer will now restart, and your previous version of Windows will be restored.
I am attempting to install:

I have found several posts, many discussing how disk space can be an issue, I have increased disk space so it shouldn't be an issue. I have also made sure the only only partition on disk 0 is C: and system reserved.
I have disabled all unessential services and went through and removed all unessential applications, and extras. Still getting the error.

Any ideas on how I can resolve this, or further troubleshoot?

I also had this error: "Setup cannot continue. Your computer will now restart, and your previous version of Windows will be restored."
trying to do a in-place upgrade of a Domain Controller Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012 R2.
The problem was the separated System Reserved Partition. After I removed using this instructions:

The upgrade ran ok, and now have my DC as Windows 2012 R2.
Hope that helps!.

My computer restarted while I was updating my software from OS4 to OS5 and now my ipod is froze in a way that it shows the symbol that I should connect it to itunes. I connected it but itune is not recognising it. I have tried to reset but it nothing.

My computer restarted while I was updating software from OS4.1 to OS 5. Now my Ipod touch is just frozen. All it shows is the usb connection to itune symbol. Itune does not recognise. I have done the reset but nothing happens after the apple symbol shows up and back to usb and itune symbol. Help please.

See if placing the Ipod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so yu can restore the iPOd.. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Next try DFU Mode.

My computer restarted while my shuffle was installing and now I can't get my computer to register the connection. What do I do?

My computer restarted while it was installing the shuffle for the first time. Now I cannot get my computer to register the connection and I cannot put music on my shuffle. How can I get my computer to install the driver again and start using my shuffle?

Hey jessandmatt17,
If you cannot get your iPod Shuffle to show up in iTunes, check out the following articles depending if it shows up on your computer within Windows Explorer. With the iPod Shuffle plugged in check in Windows Explorer to see if it shows up as a removable device. They both will help no matter how the iPod Shuffle shows up.

I can't restart the iphone to reset or restore. I held the homebutton down and the homebutton + sleepbutton down at the same time. The apple doesn't even appear.
I've also tried connecting it to the charger. It's not charging and dosn't recongize it.
I tried connecting the phone to itunes on the computer to see if it registered and charged it but that didn't work either.

Crashes/reboots/restarts while on sleep

This thread is exclusive to people who have spontaneous crashes/reboots/restarts while their Mac is in sleep. (this is usually connected to having a USB external hard drive plugged in the computer while on sleep)
In simple words, you are experiencing this problem:
1) You put your Mac to sleep
2) You return to it after some time and you find it on.
3) On screen you find this error message "Your computer restarted because of a problem." or similar, and in the report of the error message the Event is "Sleep Wake Failure" or similar.
If your Mac does not wake from sleep this is NOT the thread for you, please don’t write here.
If your Mac is experiencing black screens and freezes while waking up from sleep this is NOT the thread for you, please don’t write here.

ANSWER
PS
Please forgive any mistakes in this text, unfortunately english is not my native language.
<Email Edited by Host>

1. Which Mac do you have? (If you have this issue with multiple machines, list them here)
Macbook Pro Retina late 2013. 512Gb SSD, 16Gb RAM, 2.3Ghz core i7 with discrete GPU.
2. When did the problem start? If you had Mountain Lion installed on this machine, did the problem start when you updated to Mavericks?
I purchased a 4TB WD MyBook and split it into two partitions with one of them being used for Time Machine. After that, I received the reboots during sleep.
The computer came preinstalled with Mavericks.
3. Did you have your Mac replaced from Apple because of this issue? If yes, does the new machine still have the problem?
No, I haven't had it replaced. I contacted Apple 4 days after the problem started. I had turned off PowerNap, but still had the problem. Apples asked me to disable Wake for Wi-Fi Network Access, and since doing that the problem has disappeared.
4. Does your machine crash/reboot while on sleep only if you have an external hard drive connected?
Yes (before I turned off PowerNap and Wake for Wi-Fi)
5. Does your machine crash/reboot even if you uncheck "Enable Power Nap" in Preferences, Energy Saver? (before answering this, check that you have updated OS X to 10.9.1 and that you have unchecked Power Nap in both the Battery and Power Adapter tabs in Energy Saver)
I have to have both PowerNap and Wake for WiFi disabled. If either is checked, the computer reboots. I've confirmed this with both 10.9 and 10.9.1.
OPTIONAL QUESTIONS
6. Do you have an external hard drive connected via USB? If yes, write the manufacturer name and model name of the drive. (example: Western Digital My Book)
Yes. Western Digital My Book 4TB. Split into 2 partitions.
7. Do you have a network connected drive? (like Time Capsule or an external hard drive connected to an AirPort Extreme, or a NAS)
No.
8. Do you have Time Machine Enabled?
Yes.
9. Do you have Crashplan installed?
No.
10. How much time does it usually take for the first crash/reboot to happen, after you put the computer on sleep?
4 hours. Checking the console log, my computer wakes itself at 2 hours for Time Machine (even if PowerNap is turned off, which is why Wake for Wi-Fi needed to be disabled, even the drive wasn't connected over the network, which really makes no sense) and then on the second wake, it has the Sleep Wake failure. Then it proceeds to reboot every 2 hours after when it wakes for Time Machine.
11. If you have a late 2013 MacBook Pro Retina, do you have discrete graphics in it? (In other words: do you have an NVIDIA GPU? If you don't know this, go into the menu bar, click the apple icon, click About This Mac, Click More Info, in Graphics you should find written “NVIDIA GeForce”.)
Yes.

My Mac OS X does not restart while trying to update/install

My Mac OS X does not restart while trying to update/install iTunes. It allows me to click on Restart button, then just the screen saver shows up, waited 10 -15mins and nothing happens. Had to force shut to try again, same thing happens.

As a test, try opening the PDFs using Preview and see if they will print correctly from that application. If so, then it is likely an Acrobat problem. If they still don't print correctly, it is like a file problem.
You can also try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

E7 always restart while making call with Bluetooth...

Has anybody experienced a problem that you can not make calls when qwerty keyboard is in use and Bluetooth to headset is activated because phone makes every time restart while setting up the voice call. It just first indicates that "disconnecting Bluetooth" and soon after that restarts. And when you make it again and again it does the same.
Hopefully this is going to be corrected in next E7 SW release.

No, contrary to this I can pick up the phone, close the keyboard and no interruption takes place. However, I purchased my phone only two weeks ago and it might have the new SW already.
