Windows XP won't load on Toshiba Satellite M115-S1064

After correctly shutting down laptop, I attempted to turn it back on later and Windows won't boot. It will not even allow start up in safe mode. After stopping auto restart, I got blue screen with error STOP: 0x000000E3 (0x80558BE0, 0x84FCA3E8, 0x00000000, 0x00000002). I was able to use an enclosure to retrieve my files from the hard drive with no problems. Does anyone know if this can be fixed without using the recovery disk or getting a new hard drive? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

That's a tough one! Very little help here.
Bug Check 0xE3: RESOURCE_NOT_OWNED
Try running chkdsk x: /r on it from the other computer while it's in the enclosure (KB315265).
(If the hard drive were affected, you would not have been able to retrieve your files.)

Win 7 Won't Load on Toshiba Satellite C655 S5060

Okay, so I'm not sure what happened. Computer was unresponsive so I forced a hard shutdown. After that, it won't load Windows 7 and gives me 2 options: Launch windows repair or start win normal.
The second option, start windows normally, takes a few minutes, comes to a blue screen of error, then shuts down, restarts, back to the same 2 options.
The first option, takes me to a screen that says windows files loading (something like that), then it hangs forever in a black/grey screen and the ONLY thing I can see is that mouse arrow!!!
I read about Toshiba's recovery option of pressing zero while turning on laptop but I know that will delete all my files. Before I go down that route, I wanted help here just to see if I can save it... "Better".
So, my desktop went to all hell too but I was able to grab an iso (win 7 recovery disc, 64 bit) and burn it onto cd. I tried using that as well as a 32 bit one and when I boot from those, the laptop just sorta says 'windows files loading", then same black/grey screen with mouse arrow (only thing that shows).
I've never played with a laptop like this. If I want to save my files on the hard drive, what are my options? Anything cheap or free? And doing that "0" reset will wipe everything clean, right?
Oh yeah, and when I did other options, debugging etc. it would try loading all these files and right after saying:
"loaded: \windows\systems32\DRIVERS\CLASSPNP.SYS"
it would hang, then crash after a min or two.... :/
Thanks for your time. Please list directions step by step, and I can get back with info.

can the drive not be put into a desktop tower as is? I think when I built the desktop 6 years ago, I installed 2 drives
As a secondary drive? Sure. Do that and copy the important files.
We can try to resurrect Windows from the recovery environment if you like. If you didn't burn a repair disk, download one from here. Scroll down to Windows 7 System Repair Disc 64-bit.
Create a Windows 7 System Repair Disc
Use it to boot to the Windows Recovery Environment.

Windows 7 won't load properly / possible HDD failure?

Well I will start off by saying I've been having problems with this since I've bought it. It used to be under warranty and I had to ship it back twice, and I've had to do countless system recoveries but this time I'm at a loss. My current problem started about 4 days ago. I had skype downloaded, and my skype started freezing randomly, but only for 30 seconds to a minute, and then come right back to working. Then this started happening more frequently, and then it got to the point to where it wasn't just skype that would freeze, it was my computer. It must have only been explorer.exe that was freezing or something because my mouse still moved, and if I was in a skype call the skype call would work but I couldnt type or click on skype without it saying that it wasn't responding. Then yesterday that problem upgraded again to nothing working very well. My computer (again I can only assume it was explorer or something) would start up normally, and then once I got to my desktop the load light would come on my tower and freeze / slow down anything and everything. Example was I had VLC media player open watching a show and the video would freeze for 2 to 5 minutes, play for 10 seconds, then freeze again. Beforehand it was only slight lock ups, but then it became full blown lockups. Once that load light came on it stayed on and never wavered and I would be forced to restart my computer to even give it a chance to run properly for a few minutes before this same problem would occur. Yesterday however the problem upgraded once again, and my computer wouldn't even let me get to my desktop normally. I was able to load into safemode with networking to try some solutions but nothing worked. Then the hangup issue started occuring in safe mode as well, forcing me to restart again. This is where it just keeps getting worse sadly. My computer would get to the "Starting Windows" screen, sit there for a couple minutes, then maybe 1 out of 10 attempts it would get to the "Welcome" screen as if it was trying to load my desktop but never would load it, and on the other 9 attempts I didn't make it to the "Welcome" screen it just sat a black screen with the load light going and it would never do anything. My mouse has never been frozen at any point so it's not a full on freeze situation, but something isn't right. I did a sytem recovery last night, put it back once again to factory settings and it still locked up a little but nothing compared to how it had been. I turned my pc off and went to sleep, and then this morning it did the usual not getting past the "starting windows" screen. Sometimes it wouldn't even recognize my hard drive, giving me the old "insert media and boot from disc" or "No media found", I also got two errors, PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable, and the other message was PXE-MOF: Exiting PXE ROM. Then after receiving those messages my computer would restart and give me the choice to hit a button to load from disk. Throught the course of this problem I tried startup repairs, smart tests, anti viruses, nothing did anything to help. So I decided once again it was going to be time for a system recovery, but now when I hit f11 to go into the system recovery options, all of it is blacked out. I can't even click on system recovery anymore. So at this point Windows 7 won't load at all, not even in safe mode, and I'm lucky to even be given the OPTION to start it in safe mode. Half of the time it seems my computer doesnt even recognize my harddrive, and I can't even do a system recovery or repair tools, but the repair tools didn't really do anything anyway. So I have no way to use that computer, and Im thinking it might be HDD failure but I'm not hearing any noises coming from it and my computer has always been a little slow so it's not like things have slowed down by a lot so I'm not so sure its my HDD but I have no idea what to do or where to start since I've exhausted all my of resources on trying to fix this issue myself. I know this problem is probably way too vague to try to get an accurate idea of what is wrong, but I will check back now and then and answer any questions to the best of my ability (I'm not tech savy so if you need really fancy PC information you wil most likely need to tell me how to acquire said information). I mean I guess if I have to I will get a new HDD, but that means I will most likely need to get a new OS, and I love windows 7 with all my heart and I don't want to upgrade at windows 8. I feel like it's my OS but it could very well be anything at this point.

Hi @rhhox ,
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).

Satellite A105 Windows XP won't Load

My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A-105 with Windows XP installed as a factory OEM. I have a Hard Drive Recovery Disk, but no separate disk for XP installation or repairs. Problem: Windows XP screen comes up and then laptop wants to constantly reboot. Initially had trouble using browser for e-mail and now this. I can't re-start in Safe Mode or boot up with "last known good config..." I isolated the BSOD and list the "stop" message as follows:
0X0000007E (0XC0000005, 0X86F01562, 0XF7A617EC, 0XF7A614E8)
Beginning Dump of Physical Memory
Physical Memory dump Complted."
Is there software available on a CD that I could use to boot my laptop to Safe-Mode? I need to at least save my research material and other important files. Other tech boards have posts from people with an XP software CD for repairs and re-installs. My laptop came only with an HD Recovery CD, and I don't want to have to re-formate my harddrive for obvious reasons. Again, does Toshiba offer a "XP CD" that can be used to diagnose and fix the OEM edition? Even just a download that I could use via my husband's laptop to burn a "XP CD" might work. Helpful replies will be greatly appreciated...THANKS!!

Bug Check 0x7E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
Probably not a recoverable error. Three ways of reaching the data if your hard drive is alive.
(1) Install a second version of Windows to a different folder in the same drive and boot it. You can use Windows Explorer to copy important files to external media.
(2) Download a free CD that boots to another operating systems or to a preinstall environment. Here are some to check out. They all have a file manager that enables you to rescue files.
Ubuntu
   KNOPPIX
   Bart's
   UBCD4Win
   SystemRescueCd
(3) Remove the hard drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and access it from another computer. To remove the hard drive, see the first three steps here.

Updated to show instructions and pictures 8-24-2014
Instructions for changeing to from Windows 8 to windows 7.
INSTRUCTIONS:
First - Burn recovery media before you make any changes! -You may want or need to go back to windows 8 later-
Update BIOS to newest bios version, the C55 and possibly other models will not support CSM boot mode with the older bios versions.
Second -
Important Bios changes when changing from Windows 8 to Windows 7:
Completely shut down laptop (Shut down Windows 8 while pressing the Shift key to completely power off.) then restart computer and hold f2 when the screen goes black and wait for the bios setup utility to launch.
Select advanced, then system configuration, then boot mode
UEFI and CSM or legacy (UEFI for Windows 8 and CSM or legacy for windows 7)
For windows 7 change to CSM or Legacy mode.
Third - Also in bios setup utility select - Security, then Secure Boot, then you have to disable secure boot for windows 7.
You will need to delete all partitions before installing windows 7 this is done forth step.
Forth - Insert your windows 7 disc and select custom install, your partitions should show up - click on each one and below you will see advanced drive options, click that and you will have options to format - format each one, then delete each one. You will be left with one raw partition, select to install and windows will do the rest while installing the operating system.
Fifth - install drivers
Installation order is important:
Install chipset driver then video driver before other drivers. Then install Toshiba Value added package before other applications

Windows Detected a hard disk problem Toshiba Satellite L505-S5988

It has been about 2 months since I had my new laptop and first I coudnt get the flash cards to work so I finally fixed that and now everytime I start windows an error message comes up and keeps coming up every 10 minutes saying:
Windows detected a hard disk problem
Back up your files immediately to prevent information loss, then contact computer manufacturer to determine if you need to repair or replace the disk.
-> Start the back u process
-> Ask me again later
Show details
Which disk is failing?
The following hard disk are reporting failure:
Disk Name: Toshiba MK3263GSX
Volume: C:\
Please tell me how I can fix this because I called Toshiba support and the guy couldnt even figure out the drivers name for flash card.
Toshiba Satellite L505-S5988
Thanks

your hard drive is failing. you need to do what it says. back up everything and then either call toshiba to have it replaced under warranty or buy a new one and change it yourself. this is where all of your info and files are saved so if it fails without you backing it up you lose everything.

Satelite Pro A300 - Windows XP won't load

I fear that this may be due to a virus.
I was using the computer and a blue screen flashed up with white writing on it, it then switched intself of and now Windows won't load, not even in safe mode, or any of the other options. When I try to load in safe mode etc... it just comes up to the same page.
I can get in to the Boot section by pressing F12, but although I am computer literate, this is all absolutely new to me and I have no idea what to do next.
Has anyone got any ideas? Unfortunately I am outside of my warenty and would prefer to get the laptop up and running without spending a fortune at a repair shop.
Thank you!

Hello
If you have Microsoft Windows XP installation disc boot from it and try to use "Repair option".
I'm not 100% sure it will help but try it.
How to do this you can read on http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/topic/138-how-to-repair-windows-xp/

Itunes for windows 7 won't load?? Please Help

I've tried loading iTunes after restarts and re-installations but for some reason it won't load. I've never had this problem before and can't seem to solve it.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

FIXED IT!!!
None of these suggestions worked for me. I've started fresh by re-installing iTunes and then holding the shift button whilst loading it. This enables you to pick a new library and from this, it works!!
A bit of a faf because now i have to get all the info off my phone and in to iTunes but at least it opens now!!
Boom! ha, I came for help from the apple geeks and it turns out I'm the geek!!

Windows still won't load

I posted last night, thank you to those who viewed but probably was not specific enough for anyone to reply.
I have now attempted countless times to install Windows without success. I have disconnected all peripherals and pulled the plug for 30 seconds as suggested in other threads still to no avail. I printed the recommended pdf for the Boot Camp Assistant and follow the pertinent instructions but the end result is always the same. The sequence is-
Select 32 gig or less for partition
Insert Windows disc
Windows Set Up is loading files
Windows Set Up is starting Windows
I arrive at the Windows XP Professional Set Up Window and select c:<Boot Camp> Fat32
Win XP Prof Set UP examines disc
Win XP Prof Set Up Copying files to Windows installation folders
brief message regarding configuration and machine restarts
brief flashing cursor then message "press any key to boot from Windows disc" which does nothing
arrive back at Windows Set Up which starts loading files again.
The second time I arrive at the Win Prof Set Up window I select quit and get an error message saying Windows is not set up properly.
Strangely enough the last two attempts I have had I have not encountered the window where one selects the format options for the partition.
I might be really dense and am missing the obvious or I might just be really dense. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it as it would have been cheaper to buy a standalone Windows machine rather than waste the time I have invested thus far.

Thanks for your input.
Yes, each time I have attempted to install Windows I have used Boot Camp Assistant to delete the non working partition. I have torn what little hair I have left out yet had another attempt last night.
It's very strange as it appears to go through install, configure, everything yet I always come back to the original screen "Set up is installing files", when I opt to quit thinking Windows has installed, I get an error message in red saying Windows is not installed and quitting etc...
After switching off and restarting the partition icon shows up in the Finder window as various things. Some times it has been called BOOT CAMP today it is called NO NAME,
Thanks again, I'm about to give up and just go buy a Dell laptop

Missing windows 7 display driver for my Toshiba Satellite?

Hello everyone,
I've got a problem with the display driver of my laptop. Specifically, the display driver is stop working when I awaken the device from a sleep. I have tried to update the driver from Toshiba Australia but surprisingly I did not find the display driver for my model. So I tried to use the vista drivers but the problem still exist. Unfortunately ATI does not provide the drivers directly to Toshiba notebook instead they advice to go to Toshiba. Can any one advice me how fix this problem. My Toshiba specification details as follows:
Satellite Notebook
Series A300
Product: PSAG4A-02500M
Operating system Windows 7 64-bit.

There's a link on the Australian A300 driver page "unable to find W7 drivers - click here" (its in red, small and not obvious). Looks like you want to go here [http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows7/download/Satellite_A300_64_au.htm]

Windows 7 won't load after installing new Hard Drive and Recovery software

HP G72 Notebook PC
xz218UAR
I guess a virus crashed my hard drive so I bought a new one. I installed the new drive and loaded the recovery disks that I also bought from HP. Apparently Windows didn't load properly and it keeps telling me to RELOAD WINDOWS. I've tried starting over from Disk 1 but it's not doing anything different to fix it.
I removed the new hard drive and reinstalled it but it's still doing the same thing.
What am I doing wrong and HOW DO I FIX IT?

Hi,
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
Assuming that this is just a problem with the Recovery process, there is a straight forward work around if you have ( or can borrow ) a retail Windows 7 installation disc that is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie if your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the exact retail version you would need.
If you don't have access to a retail disc, you can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

Windows XP won't load on K8N Master2-FAR after BIOS Flash

I downloaded the w9620nms.110 version BIOS from the MSI website and flashed the BIOS. Since that time, Windows XP Pro will not load successfully. I re-flashed to go back to the 1.00 version and even tried the 1.26 version I got from this site. Each time it still didn't work. I cleared the CMOS and retried. Still no good.
I reformatted the windows partition on the HDD (nVidia RAID stripe) and reinstalled windows. The installation seemed to go fine, but when the system tried to load Windows, it failed again. Just keeps re-booting.
Is there some setting in the BIOS that got changed in the flash that I'm missing that effects this? A setting that needs changing back (other than the SATA RAID which I've re-set and whish is recognized by windows and the BIOS).
Or, it is possible the RAID stripe was corrupted somehow?
The system worked for several months before the flash.
Any help on this is much appreciated!!

Windows 7 Won't load on MacBook Pro 17"

I am on my second day of trying to load Windows 7 on my Macbook Pro 3.06Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of ram. I've tried installing on to an external hard drive and I have tried to install in using boot camp but I get the same error with both, Windows cannot be loaded because of drivers.I have been all over the web looking for intel drivers, chipsets, or any other drivers that might work with no luck. I've even loaded my OS X 10.6 disk in a windows machine and copied the drivers over to an external. I have had Windows XP using Boot Camp and refuse to go to Windows Vista. Any Advice would be great.

You have not provided, for me, anything to go by.
You can't install Windows on a Mac except with Boot Camp Assistant if you want to retain Mac OS.
You cannot install on external drives.
You can install Windows 7 only, take over the entire internal hard drive.
Boot Camp Assistant can fail or refuse to partition if there is not enough free contiguous (unfragmented) free space or if there are files that cannot be moved. In which case you may need to boot from another hard drive and buy iPartition and/or iDefrag; or, use Disk Utility and totally erase and restore from backups.
And most of that is in the Boot Camp PDF:
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp - tech articles, how to, troubleshooting, and of course, the Guide in PDF format.

Windows 7 won't load and keeps restarting on my macbook pro?

So my windows 7 bootcamp works perfectly fine. But I downloaded something on windows 7 and it says it needs to restart. It restarted automatically and then it tries to load w7. The blinking "_" on top left shows and then it restarts itself again and again. And when I hold the option key, it just loads the macintosh partition which works fine.
Please help. Any ideas how to fix this?

OES key of w7 i haven't activated my windows yet so my friend (who gave me w7 installer) told me to open it how do you fix virus?
