Toshiba Disc Creator vs. BurnAware, CDBurnerXP InfraRecorder

Can anyone share their opinion of how Toshiba Disc Creator compares with the high-profile free burners BurnAware, CDBurnerXP (without Open Candy), and InfraRecorder? The context is data backups rather than music/video. Multisession (preferrably maximized for readability with existing disc readers) is highly valued.
The reason why I'm asking is because I own only one computer, a Toshiba Satellite A660. I sussing out the possibility that there may be synergy advantages from using a Toshiba burner on a Toshiba platform, though I fully prepared for the possibilit that there isn't.

Hi
Toshiba Disc Creator is nice and basic burning software which you got for free.
Toshiba Disc Creator can write to CD-Rs, DVD-Rs. You can make copies of CDs and DVDs.
The software provides five options: burn audio disc, burn data disc, copy disc, disc to image and image to disc.
For a common usage, these available options should be good enough
Other mentioned software is not known to me beside the Toshiba Disc Creator I use the Nero burning ROM. Of course you have to purchase this software but in my opinion its one of the best burning software on the market.

Error message when trying to use Toshiba Disc Creator

I recently updated Vista to Service Pack 2 from SP1 and now I'm getting an error message when I try to use Toshiba Disc Creator 2.0.1.3. "Unexpected error occurred. Error Code 32007C-26-00000001" It worked perfectly before.
This is the first time I've used it since updating so I think SP2 may be part of the problem but I'm not sure. I couldn't find any updates for TDC. My system is a Satellite L305-S5919 with Vista 32 bit.
Anyone have any idea what might be causing the error?
Thanks

Have you tried to roll back OS to earlier time and check functionality again, just to be sure it has something to do with SP2 installation?
I dont know if anyone here can offer some solution but Im pretty pessimistic about that and dont think Toshiba will offer new version.
As far as I know Toshiba disc creator was always offered with recovery image only and not as downloadable application.

Toshiba Disc Creator Has Stopped Working Error Message

I have a Toshiba Satellite P305D-S8834, and tried to burn a CD using Toshiba Disc Creator v.2.0.1.3. But I kept getting an error message saying "Toshiba Disc Creator has stopped working." and couldn't successfully burn a CD. Though I contacted Toshiba tech support, I couldn't get useful info. Any tips would be appreciated.

Try removing and reinstalling Disc Creator. Install the latest version from the Toshiba site.
Also update the BIOS, and ensure you are using quality DVD discs such as TDK. No-name discs wear out easy and use cheap dye's.
Also try deleting the UpperFilters and LowerFilters:

Equium A110: Toshiba Disc Creator crashes

I have an A110, with XP loaded as supplied and I am using *Toshiba Disc Creator* (because I was told Toshiba turned off windisc because it would conflict).
The problem is when I burn a Data CD for photo backups etc the operation is successful but *afterwards the disc creator program freezes* and will not shut down properly.
I have tried cntrl plus alt plus delete, and tried to select the application and shut it down too but it just can't force it to shut down and it uses loads of system resources so I am eventually forced to switch off with the power button, which I hate as I understand an improper shutdown can really mess things up!
So do you cool dudes have any suggestions. Is there a patch out there, or could I use another CD/DVD burning programme, I haven't yet because of what I was originally told about conflicts?
Awaiting your wisdom.
Thanks

Hi,
did you already checked on the Drivers Download page for some newer version of the Toshiba disc creator? Maybe its just an version which conflicts which some other software on your computer.
What I would suggest is to reinstall windows and install ONLY the Toshiba tools and nothing else. Please take care of the installation order which is listed in a document -> downloadable from the Drivers Download page.
If it then fails then it could be some kind of software problem but if not then you know that some other 3rd party application interferes with the disc creator.

Re: Toshiba Disc Creator sees disc as closed

I would like to append files to a data disc which still has 200MB free space and is not closed. Toshiba Disc Creator sees the free space but sees the disc as closed. I checked on a PC with Nero and Nero sees writable free space.
Why?
How can I get Toshiba Disc Creator to see the disc as open?

Hey,
What notebook and operating system you have?
Probably you have to update the current version of your Toshiba Disc Creator software. Its downloadable Toshiba tool that you can get here:

Toshiba disc creator to create audio CD

Hi,
I have the toshiba disc creator 2.1.0.7 (using windows 7) and I am trying to make a copy of an mp3 cd.
So I just copied the mp3 song from the original CD to HD. then opened toshiba disc creator
selected the audio CD option.
Selected the source and drag them the destination.
The strange thing is that as soon as I drop about 10 songs, it says the disc is full.
Looks like it is saving it as some other format otherthan mp3.
Where can I set the mp3 for the destination.
Why can n't it just keep the original format for the destination.
Thanks
Jay

Instead of saying that you are creating an audio CD, select the setting for a data disk. As is, selecting audio CD tells the program that the files need to be formatted for audio playback, not as MP3 files. Selecting data disk will cause the program to leave the file format alone.

TOSHIBA Disc Creator

I have a Satellite L755-S5256 that when I start it goes thru a program like I did not shut it down properly and then says I need a startup disc. Does anyone know how I can purchase this disc and where and how much? I have called support but they told me to come to this website. Please help me, I love my laptop and dont want to have to buy a new one.

Satellite L755-S5256
You need to access the Windows Recovery Environment, Chris. We can run many fixes from there.
What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?
You should be able to do that using F8 and Repair Your Computer as explained above.

Hi
It seems this is a common error message if an application doesnt run as it should.
According to this short error, the applications or process called ToDisc.exe has crashed. This file belongs to the Toshiba Disc Creator software.
In my opinion its really not easy to say why it happens but my first idea is that your have used a not compatible or not fully supported CD or DVD to burn the Toshiba image.
The image is really a big file and therefore you should use a DVD medium. Please check the user manual to get more details!!!
Ive got additional advice; try to use different DVD from different manufacturers because sometimes not all mediums are supported.
Bye

Satellite L500D PSLK0A Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator does not run correctly

Hi,
I am trying to create a recovery disc for my Toshiba Satellite L500D PSLK0A-00U009.
When I run the Recovery Disc Creator it begins to open then it comes up with a box with an exclamation mark then it says 'Can not open target partition'. Then the Recovery Disc Creator will open. It then appears normal then when I insert a CD to being the process it looks as though it is going to work then it says Error and stops and ejects the CD the Error is code is: 0E01B5-26-510444D9
I have already uninstalled then program then reinstalled it using a download from the MyToshiba website and this did not fix the problem.
Any suggestions?

Hi
Did you try different disks from different manufactures?
How about the usage of USB flash memory stick? As far as I know you can create an bootable USB Recovery flash stick too.

Hi
Did you change anything on your notebook?
I mean if your HDD recovery partition has been changed or the data o thin partition has been deleted?
To be honest for me it looks like the OS issue. I think its not a single tool issue but I think the operating system has been muddled up
Maybe you should try to recover the notebook using the Toshiba HDD recovery option and after the new OS installation on the notebook you could try to create the recovery disk again.
In order to start the recovery you have to press the F8 immediately after the notebook has been powered up. Then you should choose the first option called Repair My Computer.
This would lead to a new window and there you could choose Toshiba HDD recovery.
But note; this recovery would format the whole HDD so maybe you should backup some data before you would start this procedure.

Toshiba NB200-10z - recovery disc creator.lnk isn't available

Hello, I have a problem with my netbook Toshiba NB200-10z, when I run Toshiba recovery disc creator I get the window with:
The unit or network connection to which the link refers "recovery disc creator.lnk isn't available.
Make sure that the disk is properly inserted or the network resource is available and try again
How can I fix it?

Since this is an English language forum you should post the message in English language.
I assume you are not able to start the Recovery disk creator software
Why?? Who knows.
Try to recover the notebook using HDD recovery option:
Press F8, choose Repair my Computer, and HDD recovery.
If this would not be available or possiblewell you will need to try to order a recovery disk from Toshiba or would try to install the system using another disk

The confusion (sorry) is from Toshiba not me or you! Here is the description from the Help file:A copy of your computers applications and drivers are stored on the hard drive. You can create an application disc by using the TOSHIBA Application Disc Creator.
The other one is a disc burning utility for files. I would like to back up drivers and applications without imaging.

Satellite U400 Impossible to create recovery DVD with Recovery disc creator

Hi,
I have a Satellite U400 (few years old), and I never created the recovery DVD.
Now I want to do it, but for some reasons, when I launch Toshiba recovery disc creator, nothing happens...
The partition with the recovery files is there, as well as the folder HDDRecovery. I did add some files to this partition, could this be the problem ?
Thanks for your help.

It is big problem now if the Toshiba tool cannot find the files.
How it works you can read on http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=140985
Check it out please.
What you can try now is to check if HDD recovery installation will start - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm but Im afraid the same problem will occurs again.
To be honest you should install Win7 32bit on this small Satellite notebook. It works perfectly. Forget original Vista OS, Win7 works better.

Recovery Disc Creator does not list any discs for creation

Brand new NB200-10G (this a UK model). When I run TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator it does not show any discs for creation and the CREATE option is greyed out so I cannot create the discs. Now... when I first got it I did not have a USB DVD writer with me but I ran RDC out of curiosity to see the devices it might offer. At that time it DID list discs to be created but I cancelled out. I get the impression the program thinks it has created the discs and I believe I read somewhere that it will not create the discs more than once. I think it must have set a switch in the registry or .ini files somewhere to indicate that the discs have been created. If so does anyone know how to "undo" this? Drive D (data) and hidden partition *appear* to be intact.
If this is not possible then I guess I could try the "press key 0 at power up" method to restore to original install setting and this might then enable me to create the discs but I'm concerned that if the restore fails in a destructive way that I might be left without a working PC. TIA Ken
Solved!
Go to Solution.

OK all fixed!
Restore using key 0 at power up worked fine and cured the ToRDC problem. It then let me produce 2 copies of the restore DVD. Don't know what caused the problem... issue CLOSED.
