The goal is deleting/erasing, "killing" your hard disk.
once "dead " put your installation windows cd and reinstall windows.
This process is an advanced cleaning for your hard drive.
If it doesn't work, change your hard drive because it will be probably, really dead,.
cheers

Did you check to see if the wifi was properly plugged in?
Usually this happens after they replace the motherboards or anything else that makes them unplug things.
I would check to make sure it's plugged in and check the wifi card if it don't plug in and make sure it's compatible.
Happy Holiday

It seems like your hard drive has some bad sectors.

You need to run some disk manager software to check/fix tour disk.

The best choice would be to download the "ultimate cd" from here

Boot from the cd, go to "hard disk tools" and select a disk manager (better to select the one from the same manufacturer of the disk).

Run a scan, and fix the drive (if it is possible). Then rerun your system restore cd again.


If the hard drive can't be fixed, you'll have to replace it before running the system retore.


Good luck!

if you go to :

1. control panel
2. hardware and sound
3. mouse
4. device settings
5. click the "setings" button
6. then go to sensitivity

i hope this works as i have a toshiba a200 laptop. while you're there you can toggle palm check in case you lean on the touchpad.

Hi, what OS is installed on your computer ..winxp 32 bit cannot identify over 3GB of memory.win xp 64 bit and win vista can ,hope this helps.

Hi , without explaining all that is happening ,your pc harddrive has failed.The pc is looking for an operating system but cannot find it.

Here is a link to help you reprogram your remote. LINK

Worst case, you could overlay the touchpad with the self-adhesive laminate used to protect photos. I would try it first without removing the backing to see if you can stand the loss of accuracy which will almost surely be a consequence of using it.
You might also check Toshiba's support section to see if there is a later driver with better control.

Try to updade your CD/DVD writer FIRMWARE

See on toshiba web site the model of your laptop...

download and install the firmware...

or try to clean the laser lens...

Good Luck!

Try uninstalling the device from device manager, the, also from device manager, do a scan for hardware changes. The computer should find the device, maybe it will install properly.

I did some checking on your model laptop and it says that the maximum supported amount of ram is 2gb (2 x 1gb) and so since the slots are made for 1gb max each then thats all they will see even with bigger 2gb chips installed

Can you provide a little more detail regarding your probem?
But anyway, Have you try using it? if the rom will read any disc, then probably your writer is malfunctioning.
Do you have any software like nero burning tools, this might help you adress your problem.
You can download some of them in the internet just surf it.
Examine also the type of disc you are using, the speed, if it is recordable or rewritable that maybe one of the errors when you burn in different format. or Test also if the disc itself is deffective.
