MY SATELLITE LAPTOP A135-S2246 WILL NOT LOAD WINDOWS ON RECOVERY DISK. RECEIVE ERROR MESSAGE 01-0134-0000

Windows is corrupted beyond repair, you need to reinstall it. For the recovery discs, call Toshiba at 800-457-7777. They will want to know the computer's serial number and a credit card number.

Most toshiba will boot if you press F12 and a boot screen will appear . the bios is most of the time acessed through F1 or F2 try that and let me know what happens

u have to format the hard drive and then installing windows, if the problem persist, it has to do with *********** board.

download and install the FIRMWARE UPDATE for your Optical Drive (check on pc's manufacturer website)

You can check also the original configuration of your laptop.(DVD format if +/-)

Second maybe your computer dont have the DVD player application installed.

Third Update your windows Media Codecs or install DVD player software

Put restore disk one in cdrom deive and reboot computer. Then just follow the instructions. Good Luck.

Did you reformat the hard drive? Try to turn off your computer and re-do your setup

I have the same laptop and searched the web for XP drivers. From what I found, the ones you are looking for are these:

Atheros client - ta6wlanutilax.exe 10,380 kB.
Controls - sa1058tctrlx.exe 1,506 kB.
NIC - PCI_Install_5663_20070216 (folder) 17.7 MB.
Sound - audio 3-driver_audio_realtek_25234a.exe 24,949 kB.
Wireless - Atheros_5_0_0_107 (folder) 10.1 MB.

At least you have some file names to search for. When I found this info, I was thinking of switching to XP, as you are, but I increased the RAM to 2GB and Vista works fine for me now. Especially if you turn of User Access Control, which fixes Vista's annoying pop-ups problem. (Control Panel, Windows Security Center, Other Security Settings.)

Just use the below link to download all the drivers for your laptop.
