Toshiba Recovery method - Which set up is the best

I have purchased a new lap top and on set up it is asking me to select a recovery method. Options are
- Recover to out- of -box-state (System Recovery Options are included)
- Recover without changing the hard drive partitions
- Recover to a custom size partition
Which is the best option to select?
I am thinking that the custom would be the best once I have made my recovery discs after full set up but want to be sure.
Can anyone help?
Thanks smilee

Hi
- *Recover to out-of-box-state (System Recovery Options are included)*
This Option sets your notebook back, to the Factory default status. The partitions will be deleted and created again, as they have been on the first boot.
Note: All data will be lost and HDD Recovery Option will still be available, if you want to recover your notebook again.
- *Recover without changing the hard drive partitions*
All data on the first partition will be lost and HDD Recovery Option will be still available, if you want to recover your notebook again.
- *Recover to a custom size partition*
All data on the HDD will be lost and HDD Recovery Option will not be available anymore, if you want to recover your notebook again. Be sure to have a recovery DVD created for the future

  • Which KVM switch is the best for Mac Mini

    Base on individual experience, which KVM switch is the best for Mac Mini

    Hot-Key mode MacMini and IO Gear KVM Switch MiniView Micro USB Plus
    Fusionwolf, can you help me?
    I want to use my TFT monitor (HPvs19 ) with a MacMini and a Casablanca KRON PC. The monitor works good with both computers, when connecting them separately.
    I've bought a KVM switch MiniView Micro USB Plus (IOGear GCS632U) connected it as written in the IOGear Installation Manual. Now I can use the monitor with my MacMini and my Mac keyboard, but I cannot switch to the PC.
    In the IO Gear manual several methods to switch ports are written. But every method starts by invoking HotKey mode.
    The manual reads :
    "To invoke HotKey mode, do the following:
    1. Press and hold down the NumLock key
    2. Press and release the minus- key
    3. Release the NumLock key"
    and
    "When HotKey mode is active, the Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs flash in succession to indicate that Hotkey mode is in effect."
    I've tried many times to do this pressing/releasing on my Mac keyboard. Within different time/speeds. But with no result... I CANNOT get in the HotKey mode...
    What can I do? Are there other ways to get in HotKey mode with my Mac keyboard (bought with my previous iMac some 4 years ago)? Or are there other ways of switching with the IO Gear KVM Switch?
    Thanks a lot in advance for an answer!

  • I am thinking of getting my first Macbook pro for uni and was just wondering which one would be the best? The macbook pro or macbook pro with retina display? or even wait for the new release in 2013 ?

    I am thinking of getting my first Macbook pro for uni and was just wondering which one would be the best? The macbook pro or macbook pro with retina display? or even wait for the new release in 2013 ?

    If your budget is unlimited, look at both the retina and non-retina and make a decision based on your preferences.  If funds are tight, explore the options in the refurbished section.  Unless you are dealing with courses that demand specific performance parameters, any one of these options will suffice.

  • Hi, I planned to purchase a laptop for me to use for graphic design ..could let me know which laptop would be the best for me to use ? Thank you!

    Someday - and no one knows when that day will come - maybe all applications will be able to take advantage of the Retina display. But for the present, not many do: including all Adobe applications. There was a demo of Photoshop at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference of Photoshop running at native Retina resolutions but no one at Adobe in marketing is saying when, if or how the upgrade may be coming. It could be a week, it could be a year, it could be 2-3 years. No one knows. And only Apple app's (for the main part) are really utilizing the native Retina display.
    I've seen some demos of some applications (Apple's) that take advantage of the Retina display and they're awesome. But in actually working in the here-and-now I've heard quite a few gripes, particularly on the Photoshop forum, of menus looking pixelated and/or 'blurry' so I'm not quite ready to jump into the Retina display boat just now. Don't get me wrong - others have ad are very, very pleased with their selection. But until Retina displays are available on larger monitors, the maximum work area that you're going to be able to use is 15" - and that's simply not enough room for full-blown graphic design. Then there's the cost factor - for the $4,000+ you spend for a completely full-blown Retina kit, you can get a standard MacBook Pro, 16 GB of RAM, a fast SSD and even the Apple Thunderbolt Display for the same amount.
    The standard MacBook Pro isn't better than the Retina display: it's just different. And I think (and this is only my opinion - other graphic designers should feel free to jump in here) that it's the best computer that you can get for your specific purposes. And, towards that goal, I have to recommend a very good external monitor (there's nothing more annoying than having to use InDesign in a single-page mode rather than side-by-side because your monitor isn't big enough).
    Remember that this is only my opinion and that others might jump in with their own. But I was in the electronic pre-press business for more years than I care to admit and we always - always - worked with at least 19" monitors (and that's back when dinosaurs actually ruled the world).
    I hope that others will jump in with their comments. I'm going to follow this thread and see!
    Good luck,

  • Which hard drive is the best?

    I was thinking about replacing the hard drive and the combo drive with something better.
    Which hard drive is the best? Is it the Western Digital? I was also looking at Samsung but after reading about them using harmful chemicals, I became a bit hesitant.

  • Which web browser is the best?(firefox, chrome, safari)

    I am using mac 10.6.4 which web browser is the best for mac?
    Facebook, youtube etc.
    Thanks
    Ala.

    What could be possibly better than an Apple product for an Apple product.
    Actually there are various areas where Safari is defective compared to other browsers. For example it lacks the ability to override the fonts of a website with fonts of your own choosing. Also it cannot send a different language identifier for multilingual webpages without changing the language for the entire OS. Whether the defects matter depends of course on each user's individual requirements.

  • Using Toshiba recovery disks my L505d ES5025 fails the Windows 7 setup

    Hello,
    My L505 progressively got slower and started having errors.  Then Windows wouldn't load regularly, only in safe mode.  Then Safe mode would load.  I then purchased the recovery disks for my model and started the recovery process.  Everything was going smoothly.  All three disk were installed, and Windows was doing its things setting up for the first time use.  After the fourth or fifth time Windows restarted it froze. 
    I turned it off with the power switch. Turned it back on and asked if I wanted to start in safe mode or regular.  I choose regular.  It started and went to the log on screen. The Administrator account was the only one to choose from.  I clicked it and it said that account had been deactivated.
    I turned it off and back on and went with safe mode. Worked fine.  Added another account all looked good. Turned it off turned it back on, went to log on screen choose the new account, then it went to blank desktop and froze. 
    I have tried the recovery 3 times. Once using the wipe HDD method thinking something might be causing a problem. Nothing worked. Is this a hardware or software problem?  What should my next steps be?
    Thanks You,
    John

    It sounds like the recovery process isn't completing successfully, which makes me think it's a hardware problem. The HDD is the most likely to fail, but it's hard to know for sure. If you have another HDD that you could try, I'd try that next.

  • Which IPTV "player" is the best to use?

    OK I have a bit of a "special" problem. I have IPTV and wish to watch it on my computer.
    (BTW I use KDE)
    Currently I use VLC to do this. It has some pros and some cons:
    Pros:
    It can force aspect ration
    It works with "out of the box"
    Cons:
    The current way to get to the play list is not good, as it stops playing video while your in playlist. Also, you should know that I use playlist when "channel surfing".
    I don't know how to record. I thought I found it, but it doesn't work, or i don't know how to set it right.
    I also tried mplayer/kmplayer:
    Pros:
    Recording is simple.
    The playlist is aside the video, so it's better than VLC.
    Cons:
    I haven't found how to force aspect ratio
    I haven't found how to go to next channel without leaving fullscreen.
    And there's mythtv. While I did found an how-to guide on setting it with my IPTV provider, the setting seems daunting. Also I would be using this on my main desktop computer, and skimming through mythtv wikis on ArchWiki gave me an impression that it's better to be set on dedicated media computer. Also the whole setting up the mythtv seems too much for casual TV watching that I do. I could use VirtualBox with Mythbuntu in it, which could probably save me a lot of trouble. So I'll look in to that. (Even though to tell you the truth it's not the same, so I think I'd actually prefer the Arch method of setting it up. because that way at least I'll know what is wrong if something wouldn't want to work.) This could also mean getting LIRC to work, getting or even making an remote controller and etc.
    I don't watch TV that often, so I don't know how much hard work should I put into this. And shows that I miss (for which I would need recording) are available on internet legally, just in lower quality.
    Sorry for a bit of an "blog" post. I need some advice and also if there are some alternatives to what I already listed above.

    If you have questions about the Visual Studio Tools, the ODT built in doc for that is good. The ODP.NET Doc is good if you have questions about using ODP.NET specifically.
    If you have questions about generic ADO.NET interfaces, use the MS online docs or other web resources. I think based on what you are describing you may need to read up a bit more about ADO.NET to understand it's relationship with ODP.NET. There are helpful docs on that all over the web. Since it is generic, it is not part of the Oracle doc set.
    If you have questions about specific error numbers, honestly the docs aren't too helpful. You are better off using "metallink" if you have a support account, or searching the OTN forums by error string if you do not.
    Networking errors are the perfect example of errors that you are much much better off looking at OTN or metallink for. I wouldn't even know what doc to send you to for those and the doc would just have the basic error definition, not the resolution.
    Does that answer your question?

  • Looking for an app for a blue tooth, type I want to use on my Iphone is a "jawbone" Question is out of the many available in the store which one would be the best and most reliable?

    Looking for an app for blue tooth on my Iphone.  Out of the many in the app store which one(s) would be the best & most reliable?  Currently trying to set up for an older Jaw Bone?

    You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
    You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
    As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
    An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.

  • Which Canon Camcorder has the best built in microphone for recording musical instruments

    Which Canon Camcorder in the affordable price range has the best built in onboard microphone for recording musical instruments
    Thanks.

    TheBee,
    Thanks for writing!
    The built-in microphones on the camcorder are fairly similar.  When you're recording music, we recommend the use of an external microphone.
    The mic you use really depends on what you're recording and where.
    So we may better assist you, please provide a bit of information regarding the type of recordings you'll be making, the music and the setting (i.e. what kind of venue, your distance to the music, etc).

    Go for the 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display. It has got a quad-core CPU and a better GPU, which will improve your video editing and games experience, even if the Intel Iris Pro GPU is not the best GPU for those tasks

  • When using the text to speech which vtml_speed value is the best?

    When using the text to speech function along with the VTML tag for speech (<vtml_speed>) what number provides the best rate for learning. I am currently trying to use this function to improve my computor generated speech for a project. I have been getting complaints that it is too slow, yet the default setting is too fast. Any advice out there?

    Hopefully nothing serious. Try a Safe Mode boot ...
    A Safe Mode boot takes a longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.

  • Which compressor Type is the Best for Voice over recordings?

    The compressor Plug in in sdtr pro has a vca, platinum, opto etc
    Which One is the Best for male Voice overs?
    I don't Know the differences opto, platinum, opto....

    Opto, VCA, and FET refer to models of different analog circuitry that accomplishes compression in different ways.
    Not positive, but I think "platinum" is not really a model, but the plug's own compression scheme.
    When I worked at an audio post facility, we had hardware UA 1176 compressors, which are FET compressors. They sounded pretty fantastic, but that's not saying that the model in the plugin will sound that way.
    Here's a nice discussion of the different types:
    http://www.barryrudolph.com/mix/comp.html
    Scroll down to the salmon background sidebar.
    Ultimately, it's really best to try the different models out and see which sounds best on your material. Let your ears be the judge.
    Good luck!
