Error code 10-FC06-000D while using recovery cd (backup)

Hi Lea,

If you're getting the F3 F100 0003 error on boot-up, the problem might lie on three things. It's either the a bad HDD, Memory, or the video adapter (which is soldered on the motherboard). Since you already replaced the HDD, the problem might lie on the other two. If you can burn a disc to run diagnostics on your computer, you can use UltimateBootCD or Hiren's Boot CD (more info on the tools here).

I've also seen some errors when you are trying to re-image the HDD using the Recovery Discs and it may have some connection to the error message that you're getting. Here's a list below:

-An error has occurred: ERROR : 10-FC10-1710" -- may be caused by a faulty hard drive.--An error has occurred. ERROR : 10-FC12-0241" -- may be caused by a faulty hard drive or defective memory.
-An error has occurred. ERROR :10-FC12-045D" -- may be caused by a faulty hard drive.
-An error has occurred. ERROR :10-FC06-0002" -- may be caused by damaged recovery media or faulty hard drive.
-An error has occurred. ERROR :10-FC12-0970" -- may be caused by defective memory.


Hope this helps. Good luck.

Your original hard disk may have a recovery partition on it. You may be able to restore the Toshiba to Out of the Box condition, but it will wipe out your data so bach up your data first. For instruction to restore your Toshiba, click on this link and follow my instructions :-

Hi, I bought a new Toshiba L850 today, installed Windows 7 (64 bit) and immediately attempted to create recovery discs (on quality Imation DVDs). I got the error described above and googled this site.This error prevents you from creating recovery discs. I have contacted both Toshiba support and support for the franchise that I bought the computer at. On another site a user reported the same problem and also contacted Toshiba support - "The second technician I talked gave me 3 options: send in the computer at a shipping cost (about $25), take it to the place I bought it, or pay for recovery disks ($29.95)". I'll be taking this computer back - it looks like it's broken out of the box.

After using Darik's boot and nuke (DBAN) your hard drive will be wiped clean with little chance of recovery. This also depends on how many passes you used for the disk wipe. More passes = less chance of recovery.

Restore from backup
You can restore backups previously created (as stated in the Create backup
section) from hard disk, CD or DVD.
1 Boot to Windows XP.
2 Press <Alt> + <F10> to open the Acer eRecovery Management utility.
3 Enter the password to proceed. The default password is six zeros.
4 In the Acer eRecovery Management window, select Recovery actions and
click Next.
5 Select the desired restore action and follow the onscreen instructions to
complete the restore process.

This error comes up if the toshiba recovery cannot recognise the file system and partitions. try removing all partitions using the fdisk utility or a windows XP CD and then run the recovery.

It sounds to me like a virus. Boot up from a recover cd or windows cd and reinstall freashly.

If you don't have a recovery cd, contact Toshiba for one. They go around for $40 to $50. If you can't get one, buy Windows Vista and boot up from that and reinstall.

Okay, your going to have to give me more info:

What is the OS (XP,Vista etc.)

You could try using a recovery CD that you should have gotten with the computer. Be aware that you may have to reformat the hard drive if the OS has destabilised completly. :(

This is a toshiba error when running recovery discs on your machine. There are two reasons that this could occur, one would be corrupted Recovery Discs and the other is bad hardware (Hard Disk Drive).
