Will Toshiba recovery wizard re-install Windows 7

I have Toshiba satellite p750 03t with Win 7 home premium and I want to restore my laptop to factory settings/state. I Used Toshiba Recovery Disc creator and burned recovery image to 4 DVD's(4,7GB). What I wanted to ask is: Will recovery discs restore Windows 7 Home Premium too as it was when i turned on my laptop first time(a screen prompted asking for user name, company name etc.) and will I be able to burn recovery discs again( will the hidden image be placed on my HDD again)

Update: I learned on the MS site that I have worm:Win32/Kaaneut.A worm. It lets Media Center take over, Restore system won't work, etc. I would like to try removing since I am having a problem un-stalling Win7.
Help again, Jerry (if you are there.) As suggested a day ago, I am going to re-install Windows 7 but because of the problem with the Media Center taking over my computer, I am more than confused now. I have all the discs suggested by Toshiba when I bpught it and have even did a re-install a few years ago. Now, I don't know where to start with these discs. I would appreciate any help. My Toshisa is a Satellite L555-S7005. Thanks, Gaye

Do I need to use Toshiba Recovery Wizard?

Hi everyone!
I've been having major problems with my Toshiba since I first got it last March. I have a Toshiba Satellite L750, Windows 7, 64-bit, with 6GB of RAM.
Last December (right before finals were due -_-) my laptop just committed suicide. The hard drive totally died on me out of the blue. I got a computer-savvy friend to replace my hard drive with a new one. Everything was working fine at first, but within a week my laptop ate that hard drive up too. It was BIZARRE. I went back home for the holidays and since my laptop was still under warranty then (it's not now), Toshiba replaced my hard drive, reinstalled Windows, etc. This was in January - things were fine, but it's now May and everything is messed up again.
Basically everything takes forever to load or it doesn't load at all - desktop, taskbar, programs, internet, user accounts... sometimes Windows won't even load. Booting in Safe Mode, things work, but they still take a little longer than usual, even just logging into my user account.
I've ran CCleaner numerous times. I've tried starting up with certain programs disabled. I've ran virus scans, and this is another problem -every single time I try to run Malware Bytes, in Safe Mode and regularly, the scan ALWAYS freezes. After that, nothing else works and I have to restart the laptop. Startup Repair doesn't do anything. Neither does sfc/scannow. Also, I tried doing a System Restore, only to find that I have no restore points. It doesn't seem to be a virus - Avast is always running and hasn't found anything.
I ran a system analyzer on my laptop and this is some of the information I got:
513.0 GB of available space on system partition
Total size of hard drives is 595.6 GB
Total memory of PC is 6092 MB
-all of this is apparently "above average"
HDD speed = 58MB/second
CPU has 2 cores running at 2.29GHz
CPU temperature = 60C (140F)
I uninstalled programs I don't use and have tried physically cleaning my computer, but to no avail. Usually I can get past the startup/Windows logo screen fine, but once I get to a user account/desktop, that's when all the problems start.
Any suggestions?
Someone said to use the Toshiba Recovery Wizard/HDD Recovery, since I'm not too fussed about losing files. Do you think this will help? Would it completely wipe out Windows 7, though?
I can access the "Repair your computer" function that leads me to Toshiba Recovery Wizard... does that mean that it'll restore everything to factory settings (out-of-box) and reinstall Windows 7 automatically? I'm assuming this because I don't remember receiving any recovery disks, so I'm thinking this might be the hidden recovery partition. I don't have the Windows installation CD, so I just want to make sure I won't end up without an OS before I go ahead and try it.
I'm trying to exhaust all options because I'm a brokeass student and would prefer to not have to buy a new laptop... but if nothing can be done, then I guess I'll have to.
Thanks for reading!

Thanks Jerry!
So do you think this will work? The fact that my laptop has eaten up 3 HDDs now kinda makes it seem like it's a hardware issue... a problem with the motherboard. I gave this laptop to Toshiba in January when I was still under warranty, and I specifically told them that this laptop goes Hannibal for hard drives -which is not normal - and that they should check if there's a hardware issue (it had eaten 2 HDDs at that point). Clearly they didn't do that, though - they just slapped in a new hard drive. If they had listened to me, then my HDD wouldn't be dying every 3, 4 months. I've accepted that I need to buy a new laptop, but I just need something to work in the meantime while I look for one (and scrounge up some cash).
Also, do you think the fact that nothing ever loads on my laptop will have an effect on the Recovery Wizard? I read that if even one thing goes wrong during the recovery process, everything will be completely lost and you can't even try the process again. Obviously I don't want that to happen!
And one more question: it's not 100% clear in the manual and that is what I originally came here to post about - will the "out-of-box" recovery process delete my OS? I have a Windows 7 sticker on my laptop, so I'm pretty sure it was pre-installed... I definitely don't have any disks with me. So even if it does work, will it reinstall Windows 7/MS Office/etc. automatically for me?
Thanks again for your help!

P745: Possible Bad Hard Drive. How do I get Toshiba Recovery Wizard on New HD?

Hey everyone last week my computer was behaving slouchy so I did a simple restart. When it restarted it took me to a screen which said loading "Windows files" then it took me to Startup Repair. Startup repair could not repair the issue and I did a few check disk scans and one of them said 4 sectors of the hard drive were bad. I used Toshiba recovery wizard and restored the computer to an out of box state.
I also installed ubuntu 12.04 as a dual boot option last night. Now fast forward to this morning and I am using Windows. After installing Toshiba driver updates the laptop is again behaving slouchy and refusing to load web pages. When I restart the computer after one to the driver updates I get an error about not being able to start windows and so I choose "Attempt to boot from last successful attempt" this works. However, something tells me that the bad sectors of the hard drive are to blame.
So I want to order this 1TB toshiba notebook hard drive and install in the P745. http://www.toshiba.com/us/accessories/Storage/Hard-Drive-Replacements-and-Upgrades/1TB/PH2100U-1I54
However, the hard drive will be blank and so I want it to have Windows 7 on it and the Toshiba recovery wizard which I find to be extremely useful.
How do I go about getting back Windows 7 on the new hard drive and the recovery partition on the new drive. Do I order the recovery usb from Toshiba? https://support.toshiba.com/repair?orderType=SFF
Then somehow this usb will assist me in transferring the contents of my current hard drive to the new one including Windows and Toshiba Recovery Wizard?
I would be grateful for any clarifications and assistance you can provide.
Thanks.

Post full model and operating system!
Your answer in general -
You should have the option to create recovery media from your Toshiba so you don't have to buy them.
Type in your search bar recovery and the recovery media creator or may be named something different should be there to make the 3 or 4 DVD's.
This will restore to out of box settings including the recovery partition. - IT DOES NOT BACKUP YOUR OTHER OPERATING SYSTEM or anything you have added since it was new.
During the recovery it will ask if you want to rescue your info or you can save your documents, pictures , etc manually before hand.
If you reformatted the drive and installed a stand alone version of windows 7 there will not be a recovery partition and you will have to order the recovery media, you can get it here in US : http://support.toshiba.com/recovery#media

when the recovery is executed , data will be deleted and rewritten .
i have clicked yes , all my data are formated
I still don't understand the situation. If that message continues to appear, something has gone wrong. If you cannot restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents from the recovery partition, best to order the recovery media from Toshiba. If the hardware is okay, that will enable you to start out fresh.

UPDATE : Toshiba Recovery Wizard 'cannot read from source file or disk' error (satellite L500)

UPDATE 2: Phoned Toshiba tech support again, guided by techie to begin the recovery again. Just before phoning I was able to go into recovery options and view the drive setup and all the files that couldn't be read are on the CD so I've no idea why the error kept occuring, and neither did the techie. Fingers crossed it works this time but I'm not overly hopefully given that we've just done exactly the same as I did before. UPDATE 1: I got into the BIOS and reset everything back to defaults and yay, my toshiba recovery wizard now starts! :-D On the down side, when trying to do a factory default software / out of the box recovery I continually get error messages with regards to copying the files, for example
cannot read from source file or disk
7z.dll
Type application extension
size 585kb
date modified 7/14/2009 10.26pm
other read / copy errors include PREINST6.SWM, BOOT_32, BOOTPRIORITY, CHECKMAXPTSIZE, CHGBOOT, CPU, CPUCHECK, CREATEPARTITION, CTRLDRVINFO, DISKWIPE, DMI, DPINST32, EBLIB.DLL, ERRORDIALOG, EW3BOOTSEQ, FWLINK, FWLINK.SYS, GETHDDINFO, GETKEYSTATE, IMAGEX, INFILED, INITRECAREA, KRAIADAPI.DLL ..... at which point I decided to 'skip all' :-/
Any explanations as to what's going on and how I might be able to fix it would be very much appreciated! :-) Thank you!
I have a two and half year old satellite L500 with an Intel i-3 and 4 gigs of RAM, on which I was running Windows 7.
Admittedly it’s had rather a hard life (I ran some very demanding CAD / graphics software on it) but it had always performed well until just recently, when after suffering several BSOD (which had never happened before), the hard drive failed.
I partitioned and formatted a brand new hard drive (which is perfectly fine and functions normally when hooked up to another laptop with a SATA to USB cable) and obtained system recovery discs from Toshiba. Unfortunately, when I try and run the first disc, windows starts to load files but then generates an error screen with the message Error F3-F100-0003 and a request to turn the computer off.
When I use the windows Memory Diagnostic to get into the Windows Boot Manager Screen I get the following;
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware / software change might be the case.
To fix the problem
Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer
Choose your language settings and click ‘next’
Click ‘repair your computer’
File: \boot\memtest.exe
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: the selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt.
I can also use F8 on startup to get into the advanced boot options but selecting any of them simply results in the F3-F100-0003 error message. I’ve run a memory test using the UBCD, which tells me the memory is fine, and tried another hard drive (which also works perfectly well in another laptop) but no joy. On phoning Toshiba support the techie said my hard drive had failed, but as I say, both hard drives are perfectly fine / usable when hooked up to another laptop. I’m now completely stuck as to what the problem is and how I might resolve it – any advice / suggestions would be most gratefully received! Thank you in advance :-)

the second disc gives me the the "cannot read from source file or disk PREINST8.SWM"
My best guess is that the disc is not readable. Try copying it to another. Sometimes that works.
Otherwise, order new discs from Toshiba.

Toshiba Recovery Wizard Error f3-ff00-0021

P500-ST6844
PSPGSU-0Q2012
i recently noticed that my toshiba recovery wizard option in the Windows 7 RE no longer works. All the HDD recovery partitions are intact. i tried a recovery by pressing the '0' when i powered up the system and performed a factory recovery, but the recovery wizard in Windows RE still won't come up. I even tried using the recovery media
I made when I first got the computer. I even tried having the recovery media delete all info on the drive before I tried to perform a factory restore. when i use the 'Windows 7 Repair disc' i also made when I got the computer to try and bring up the toshiba recovery wizard, it comes up. but that doesn't really help me because it tries to use disc based recovery not the HDD based recovery. it also doesn't help because I chose to make my recovery media using two USB flash drives, instead of a bunch of cd/dvd discs. I know the recovery partitions and the recovery files are there and intact, but for some reason the recovery wizard won't open.
when i go to a command prompt in winre and type either startup32_tools.exe or startup32_proton.exe (i'm not sure which) the recovery wizard finally comes up but with the error f3-ff00-0021. I don't know if this is because i'm trying to bring up the wizard manually and doing something wrong, or if this is part of the problem i am experiencing.
P.S. To Toshiba: Major Kudo's on the option in the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator to use a couple of flash drives (a 4Gb and a 16GB in my case) for creating the recovery media. It's alot better than having to burn 5 dvd discs. dvd-r disc are really expensive where i am. the flash drive option saved me time and money!

UPDATE: (long overdue)
Turns out the error was caused by the backup utility was using that was supposed to make an image of ALL the partitions on my system. turns out the type of partition that containd all the toshiba/microsoft windows recovery files (type 0x17). are not commonly supported by some backup software. although the files were initially there, when i ran a system recovery using the backup software, it restored the system, but blanked out the partition called 'HDDRECOVERY'. as a result, when i ran into problems later and wanted to perform a factory system recovery, it was not possible because the files no longer existed. i talked to the backup software company about this issue, but they were not very cooperative. also the inital issue of the repair option not appearing was caused by a issue with the BCD file that windows bootmanager uses to keep track of boot options. i have since learned how to fix this issue, but it is a pain in the @$$ when it occurs. My solution issue, was resolved by the fact i had thooughtfully made an partition image of the partitions 'HDDRECOVERY' and 'SYSTEM' using commodo backup. i had made them on the day i recieved my laptop, putting it on my old seagate freeagent desk drive, and had subsequently put the drive away into storage and forgotten about the backups. the most difficult part, once i remembered about the backups, was getting them restored properly. but, i was able to do it so problem solved.
Moral of this tale: BACKUP! BACKUP! BACKUP! You can never have too many backups

See if Deltagraph is still around. We used to use that for plotting scientific data on Macs. I don't know if it is at all transferrable with Sigmaplot if you have a colleague who uses it, but if you're doing this on your own I would look at getting DG vs, doing a dual boot etc.

If I use a USB stick for time machine, will I be able to install Windows (using bootcamp) from the same USB?

I have a 64GB USB Stick, and I am interested in usign it with time machine. My question is, firstly, is this possible? And secondly, if I do do this, would it be possible to install windows using bootcamp from the same USB. My mother refuses to let me install windows without a backup of Mac OS X, so I really need to know if this is possible???

You need to use a drive that is larger than your Mac's internal drive for Time Machine, so a USB stick will not work. You need to buy an external hard drive. It's worth it. Time machine is a fantastic backup system, keeping not just a single backup, but multiple versions of your files as well (hence the need for a larger drive).

Nothing we can do actually, that's Microsoft's policy. I've got 2 machines run Windows 8.1 and 3 machines run Windows 8.1 upgraded.

New Hard drive - won't install windows from recovery disc

I am having an issue with my Satellite L505D-S5965. I replaced the hard drive (upgraded from 250 to 500GB) due to issues with the old one (which had been replaced once already) and am using the recovery disc I made before my other hard drive crashed. When I boot the computer, it says it is loading Windows files, asks for country, etc., but then doesn't display an operating system to choose and asks me to choose drivers. I can't restore it from a system image because I kept getting an error on the old drive when I tried to create one. When I've checked, it says that Windows isn't installed on the computer. I checked the BIOS and it is recognizing the new hard drive. I have also tried booting it up from the DVD/CD using the set of disks I created after I got my new hard drive previously, but it doesn't seem to even recognize them and I can't get to the Toshiba Recovery Wizard. I would order the Toshiba Recovery Media, but with the issues I'm having, I'm not sure that is the fix. I'd hate to be out another $30 on an old computer (since we also had to replace the mother board in the past few months) if I'm not sure that will cure the problem.

Re: How to install Windows from recovery media on a new hard drive?

Immediately after a Windows update, my computer would not restart. It said disk error.
I could not start it from the recovery media and F8 would not work. I bought and installed a new hard drive. Now when I put in the recovery media to install Windows on the new hard drive, it gives an error message.
What can this be? Should I be able to install Windows from the recovery media?
It is Windows 7 and the laptop is Satellite A500, 64 bit.

Hello
Generally speaking you can install recovery image on every compatible HDD so thee should not be any problem about it.
Please tell us what happen when you start recovery installation. Which error message is shown?
Is new HDD recognized in BIOS. Before you start recovery installation set BIOS to default settings.

Can I still restore back to Windows 7 after installing Windows 10?

I have a C (windows and programs) partition, and a D partition for files. In the Administrative Tools/Computer Management window, I have a small 1.5 gig partition that doesn't have a letter, that is marked as Healthy, Active, Recovery partition.
If I install Windows 10 onto my C partition, and find that I don't like it, can I use this recovery partition to restore the laptop to Windows 7? If not, is there some other way to bring back 7 if I don't like 10?
I am having some problems with the laptop, and after 4 years would just like to reinstall the OS. Then I thought it might be neat to experiment with 10, and I'll do that if I can easily bring back 7 if I need to.
