What is right Recovery CD for Satellite L300?

I recently bought "Toshiba Satellite L300" which had Windows 7 operating system but the Recovery CDs had Windows XP.
And my hard disk was single partition and Microsoft office was not working on this notebook and I used that CD to fix these problems.
But I lost my previous Windows 7.
Now it is Windows Xp SP 3 on my computer.
But I am not satisfied with XP want Windows 7.
How can i get it again for free?
Please let me know that what is right Recovery CD for "Toshiba Satellite L300". ?

>I recently bought "Toshiba Satellite L300" which had Windows 7 operating system but the Recovery CDs had Windows XP.
Hmm this is strange I have no clue what Satellite L300 this is but usually an L300 series was preinstalled with Vista Home Premium
So Im wondering why Win 7 was preinstalled and why you get Win XP recovery disk
Usually the L300 should be equipped with an HDD recovery partition which would contain the Toshiba image.
It should be able to recover the new notebook using the HDD recovery and this should help you reinstall the Vista OS.
In my opinion you should talk with your dealer maybe the notebook was a replacement device????
Who knows

  • How can i no which SATA driver do I need for Satellite L300-03C

    How can i no which SATA driver do I need for Satellite L300-03C so i can do nlite

    Hi
    Your notebook seems to be a Satellite L300-03C PSLB8C-03C01X.
    As already suggested in your first thread visit the Toshiba Canada page and choose this notebook model on the driver page.
    http://209.167.114.38/support/Download/ln_bymodel.asp
    Then download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager (SATA) - Floppy drive image. Its for Vista but the files in this package should work with Win XP too.
    Include these files using nLite in order to create new Win XP disk containing the SATA drivers.
    Finally use this disk for booting.

    Hello cindecka and feras
    Cindecka I cannot believe you cannot install this LAN driver, I mean it cannot be so complicated. All offered drivers are the same as in recovery image and they must work properly.
    I would like to have your notebook in front of me and try to do it myself and see what happen exactly.
    Try please to contact someone who can help you with it.
    Dear Feras
    LAN driver for your notebook you can find HERE

  • How to get a Recovery media for Satellite L305D S5900

    I am a Ghanaian who bought a Toshiba laptop about seven months ago. The model is Satellite L305D S5900. I am also in Ghana. I found out from the documents that came with the laptop and your forum that I can order for Recovery media for it with no charge on the software itself.
    How do I get this Recovery media for my machine as I am in a different country? What are the things involved?
    Thank You.

    Your T500 can burn CD's at the least and if you can access Windows, you should be able to burn a set of recovery discs.
    Other than that, I suggest calling support to see what they can do to help. The number in the U.S. is 1-800-426-7378.

  • What does the recovery CD contain - Satellite A100-847

    Hello guys
    I had a few questions about the recovery CD:
    1- What does the recovery CD contain? and the other CD which is called Media something?
    2- Does it have Windows in it? So I can format my PC using it? And from where can i find the product key (windows key)
    3- What if i wanted to use the CD without formatting? etc. installing the softwares?
    Sorry for asking too much but my laptop started disturbing me. Just for knowledge my Laptop is satellite A100-847

    Hello
    I will try to answer your question.
    1 Recovery media contains recovery image. Recovery image is a kind of package that contains operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities and some additional software like WinDVD or Norton antivir application. Media something is not known to me. Maybe exact description can help.
    2 Yes it has Windows OS. Yes you can format your notebook using it. You do not need product key. Just install it.
    3 I do not know what you mean. The fact is that HDD will be formatted before you start recovery installation. Be sure all your important data are saved on some external device.
    Bye

    Model PSLB8C - AA201X

    Hi
    The Satellite L300-AA2 PSLB8C seems to be an Toshiba Canadian series.
    But the drivers for Win 7 32bit could be also downloaded from the Toshiba European driver page.
    The Satellite L300 PSLB8E is an European series and the same like the Canadian model PSLB8C.

  • Drivers for Satellite L300-1AN for Vista 64-bit

    Hello,
    I just bougt a notebook, Toshiba Satellite L300-1AN, and i Intend to install Vista 64-bit OS but i didn't find drivers for Vista 64-bit (only for Vista 32-bit). Can you help me withsome information or some links?
    Another question (I am not an expert): my notebook have 4Gb RAM and some guys told me that only a 64-bit OS can use all my 4Gb RAM. Is this true?
    Thank you,
    Calin

    Usually the drivers have to be specifically designed for 64-bit OS, and the installer must definitely not contain any 16-bit code (which is not compatible with 64-bit OS, but which is still a common thing nowadays - for the 32-bit drivers only, obviously). Some 32-bit drivers are somehow compatible with 64-bit OS, but there's a performance limitation (and possible conflicts with other drivers and memory resource allocation; 100% compatibility with the OS, as well as the OS' manufacturer certification, are some of the key features that will make Windows 7 better than Vista, since most of the problems are related to poorly written drivers).
    Searching Toshiba's site for 64-bit drivers is definitely not a solution, since the technical specs on the website are not so detailed and cannot be used in order to narrow the search area (and there's no field to search by chipset driver, regardless the product series; even with such a field, not having the files indexed properly will bring no result).
    The RealTek (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Sound) and Intel (Video, Memory Controller, USB...) drivers are easy to find, but the Toshiba-specific drivers, as well as the Toshiba applications, are a little trickyer to get. Those are the ones I'm interested in.

  • Compression: what's right frame size for anamorphic film using H.264 Lan?

    i have an anamorphic (16:9) 25 minute film i want to export using Compression's H.264 Lan option (for web-posting purposes). What settings do I need for the frame size to keep it at its original proportions? i thought that 720 x 405 would do the trick, but it is slightly off, makes some of the images rather oval.
    thanks much....

    x & patrick,
    thanks for your help & desire for further clarification.
    i am dealing with a sequence composed largely of footage from a panasonic pv-gs500 using the widescreen mode. i don't know if it's "true" anamorphic or 16:9, but it's on an anamorphic timeline and looks just fine there.
    i experimented all nite last nite trying to get the right ratio for the compression type i mentioned. it looks like i finally succeeded using 740 x 416. i have no idea WHY this works, but when viewing the final exported product, it looks pretty perfect. i think it cuts off a teeny tiny bit of the height, not even noticeable.
    any explanation of WHY this ratio works would be welcome, to help along my understanding....

  • WLAN driver for Satellite L300-11V

    Have just bought a Satellite L300-11V from Currys and cant connect it to wireless in House.
    My old laptop does it perfectly. I just searched in Google and it appears Toshiba have been shipping laptops without the appropriate drivers installed.
    Can someone help me? I dont understand drivers and am doing to take this back to currys for a refund and buy another brand if this cant be fixed quickly.
    Toshiba technical helpline is 1.50 a minute and I cant afford to pay when the fault is one of Toshibas own making. Would rather take it back for full returned is there anything I can do to activate the wireless driver?
    Any help greatly, greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi
    If Im not completely mistaken the notebook has been equiuped with the Realtek WLan card and therefore you should download and reinstall the Realtek WLan driver from the Toshiba page!
    The L300-11V belongs to the PSLB0E series.
    Choose it and download the driver from the driver page!

  • Need Recovery Media for Satellite A660-042 Model PSAW3C-042017

    The hard drive on my Satellite A660-042 Model PSAW3C-042017 died on me. I have installed a new HDD but need the RECOVERY MEDIA. The Laptop was purchased in Canada, Toshiba USA does not seem to have the Recovery Media for this model and Toshiba Canada will not mail it to the USA. Can anyone help? 

    Satellite A660-042 (PSAW3C-042017)
    All the stuff for your Canadian model is here.
    Toshiba Canada will not mail it to the USA.
    I'm really surprised at that. Toshiba in the US mails them to Canada for US models.
    Have you called 800-663-0378 yourself?
    If that's true, you'll need to have an acquaintance order the discs and reship them.

  • Sound drivers for Satellite L300-17l don't work

    I have installed XP Sp2 on my Satellite L300-17l. I downloaded the drivers I need from Toshiba official site. The display and WLan and Lan drivers were ok but the sound driver does not work. After installing the sound driver windows says "Your new hardware was installed but may not work properly".
    I have tried 2 versions of the driver that are in the official site but neither one worked. I started to worry if the sound hardware on my new notebook is ok at all?
    Any solutions ? I can't get the problem for couple of days now..need help dudesa

    Before you would install the sound driver you should firstly install the
    AUDIO Patch *KB835221* and *KB888111*.
    These are Microsoft hotfixes. Search in the net for the download
    After installation reboot the OS and then try to reinstall the sound driver again.

  • Is HDD recovery available for Satellite Pro 450L?

    Hi,
    i was wondering is the recovering for 450L installed on the laptop i.e. pressing certain commands when it starts up will launch it? or did a cd come with it.

    I dont know which SP L450 do you have exactly but I have checked some specifications and can say that this notebook model was offered with Windows 7 32bit Professional and WXP as recovery CD.
    So if you want to install Windows7 again you can use HDD recovery installation - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    For WXP use delivered CD/DVD.
    I recommend you to create recovery DVD for Win7.
