You can download thevideo and device drivers for your model laptop from the Toshiba WEB site from theirdownload page. Make sure you enter the model of your laptop so you can get thecorrect drivers. Please click on this link: - http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp http://blitware.com/adpages/driverfetch/manufacturer/?manufacturer=Toshiba&gclid=CMOVxNCBx6ACFSgnawodoHNGbA

its probably the dc jack--common problem on laptops--needs to be resoldered--takes about 1 hour

Quite simply, you cant. You would normally do this by inserting the original recovery disc in the cd drive and press F12 as you turn it on.

The only options available are asking Toshiba for the discs (for which they might charge) or see if you can find someone with the same machine and borrow theirs.

Hello,

ecommended Windows 7 Installation Method SelectionToshiba provides support for installing Windows 7 on laptops built since 2007. Depending on your model, Toshiba recommends using one of the following software tools as part of the Windows 7 installation process, to support ongoing use of Toshiba provided features and functionality:

• Toshiba Upgrade Assistant for Windows 7, for upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7 on laptops made in 2009
• Toshiba Software Installer for Windows 7, for performing a Custom Installation of Windows 7 ("clean install") on laptops made 2007-2009

Find your laptop's serial number on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop, note the second character in that serial number, then click on the matching link in the list below for instructions on Toshiba's recommended Windows 7 installation method for your model.
For all laptops made since January 1, 2007*
When upgrading from Windows Vista (not a Custom or "clean" Install)

• if the second character of your laptop's serial number is 7 or 8, click here.
• if the second character of your laptop's serial number is 9, click here.

When upgrading from Windows XP, or doing a Custom Install ("clean install") from any operating system

• if the second character of your laptop's serial number is 7, 8, or 9, click here.
• if the second character of your laptop's serial number is not 7, 8, or 9 then it was manufactured prior to 2007.*

* Installation of Windows 7 is not supported by Toshiba for laptops made prior to 2007.

Hope it helped.

Passwords are designed to keep people out!
default meants the password that was set by the owner. Initially there is no password. So someone has set one up.

The person who put the password in is the one who can open it. Sorry
