Disk Read Error
So the other day my uncle called me to do some computer work. Setup outlook with his new e-mail and do some general house cleaning. Part of what i did was uninstall an outdated copy of symantec corporate anti-virus and installed the beta of microsoft security essentials (a day before the final version got released). Mse starts going through its first run update and scan procedure so i leave it be. The next day i get a call back, his computer won't boot into windows. It gets as far as the screen with the blue dell bar at the top passes the "pbr" check but then says "disk read error. Press crtl-alt-del to restart. "
Upon further inspection the hard drive is in some sort of seek loop. Three short seeks followed by a long one. A few moments later and it does it again. It is not making any clicks or sounds i would call unusual. I move the drive to another computer and it does the same thing, but holds xp from booting all the way. It gets past the logo screen, but hangs on the black screen between the logo and login. I ripped apart my external drive for its ide to usb adapter and while making the noise, it freezes the computer until i turn the drive off. Then xp acts like nothing happened. I should mention that the first time i plugged it in usb, the drive was recognized but windows froze before "the drive is ready to use". Now it just freezes without being recognized. Any ideas? Maybe a low-level program that would be worth trying? And since there is important data he needs, if all else fails, what is a good option for a professional data recovery company (he knows it would be $500+)? And after this, he is going to get a backup solution. The drive is a seagate 7200. 7 80gb ide.

Startup Gives A Disk Read Error
This is a problem my mom is having with her computer, so this might be slightly vague. Until today she was having no problems. However, today she turned the computer on, got the startup blurb, it went to the windows loading screen but decided to just stay on that screen with the windows loading bar just continuing on its merry way. She decided to restart the computer, the startup screen came up but then it apparently went to blue screen of death. She pressed whatever key it was and it went to another screen that said, 'disk read error - press ctrl, alt, delete to restart'. Now since i been speaking to her it just goes straight to the disk read error screen after the startup screen, no windows loading, nothing.

Disk Read Error Occurred - Press Ctrl Alt Del To Restart
I have a one year old dell dimension 4600, 2. 6 ghz, maxtor calypso serial ata 120 gb hd, 1 gb ram i dont think anything else really matters. Yesterday my computer was working perfectly fine, this morning i wake up and the screen is frozen, but its a different type of "frozen" then i've ever had. I can access the taskbar and i can open some new programs but currently open ones are disabled, on top of that ctrl+alt+del didnt work. So naturally i pressed the power button and my computer restarted, the first time i did this the computer went only as far as the windows xp loading screen and wouldnt budge from there, so i restarted again and same thing. Then it asked me if i wanted to go into safe mode and i did, and everything seemed to be more or less fine, so from past experiences i assumed that i can restart and everything would be back to normal. This was not the case, now right after the initial "dell" screen the pc gives this message " a disk read error occured. Press ctrl alt del to restart" since i got that error about 30 minutes ago, ive tried several things, ive tried to go into safe mode again by pressing the f8 key at startup, ive played around with some bios configurations(dont worry, everything is back to default now) i also pressed the f12 key to get into menu where i choose where to boot from. After trying several of the options, i resorted to the system diagnostics tests, where i ran a test of my hard drive, which is most likely the problem(right?). This test returned errors in the :read test" and the "verify test" the read test returned "fail, error code 0f00:0244, msg:block 81525: uncorrectable data error or media is write protected" and the "verify test" returned "fail, error code 0f00:1a44, msg: block 0: "uncorrectable data error or media is write protected" and thats where i am right now, i hope you can help, and i really need to salvage the data on my hard drive because unfortunately a lot of it isnt backed up.

Cloning A Toshiba Satellite Hdd
I have a toshiba satellite 2805-s201 (celeron - 600 mhz) with a 6gb hard drive, windows xp (fat 32). The drive works fine, but i am trying to clone it to a toshiba 40gb hd, with apricorn's ez-gig ii software. The clone process is fine, but the 40 gb drive will not boot up when i swap the drives. It says to insert a "system disk". I upgraded my bios to 2. 00 per the toshiba website. With the 6gb drive in, the 40gb drive is seen as drive e thru the usb port, so i know that the drive is ok. Can anyone help me?

Toshiba Satellite L300d - 01n Drivers Xp
I myself own a toshiba satellite l300. Anyway, she had vista, but wanted to downgrade to xp. So, we have an xp installation cd. Anyway, long story short, i need to find where i can get the xp drivers for her laptop instead of the vista ones. Apparently, from what i've heard (mostly rumors, i think, though clarification or confirmation here could help too) i can just use most of the drivers that would work on my laptop (luckily i have them on a cd), though i want to confirm this before i install them so i don't mess up their laptop or have to restart the reformatting. So, yeah. I just need to know where i can get the xp version drivers for a toshiba satellite l300d -01n, and if i have to use certain other ones for some other drivers.

Toshiba Satellite 1955 S805 Problem
Ok, i have a toshiba satellite 1955 s805 that keeps on shutting down continuously. It stays on for a few minutes and then shuts down without any warnings. I went to the toshiba website to take a look at their bulletins and of course nothing was said about it. I know that the laptop has a built-in device to turn it off if it gets too hot, but it began doing so about a year after i bought it. The fans (top and lateral) seem to work fine, but the laptop has always generated incredible amounts of heat. I have heard numerous other people complaining about the same problem. Does anyone know what is exactly the problem and how to fix it?

How To Dust Out Toshiba Satellite L300 Laptop ?
Would anyone know how to dust out a toshiba satelite l300 laptop? I have one of these, and when i play video games, i have this tremendous lag.

Toshiba Satellite M30 Laptop Shuts Down
Toshiba satellite m30 laptop turns on for a second and shuts down! I have removed the hard drive and switched the ram around and even tried it without the ram. When i try to power up the laptop, the lights come on and there's an almighty racket from the fan (but the fan is free and spins) and then it shuts down! I have disconnected the fan but even then it will shut down as soon as it's powered up!

Toshiba Satellite A135-s2386 Uses 82% Of Ram
I bought a new toshiba satellite a135-s2386 with pentium dual core and 512mb ram 128mb shared video card. The laptop originally came with vista home basic but i reformatted and installed win xp pro sp2. My concern: i monitor my ram using google desktop - system monitor. At first my computer uses only about 40% of ram and only peaks upto 90+% when i encode/burn dvd's. Now my computer uses 82% ram just surfing the net and sometimes idle. It even peaked at 96% when just surfing the net and listening to winamp. I'm using free ram optimizer right now and no difference. Is it because im using only 512mb of ram with a shared video memory? I am also considering to upgrade to 2gb of ram sometime soon but not right now. I hope theres something that can be done.

Toshiba Satellite L300 Webcam Software
So i recently bought a toshiba satellite l300. Windows vista 32 bit. To be exact. All is fine and it works fine, but i noticed it had a webcam and mic in-built. I scoured throughout the whole system finding trying to find the webcam software but it is nowhere to be found, i tried searching the internet for it but i keep getting some websites asking me to pay ridiculous prices.

Toshiba Satellite P505d Will Randomly Just Turn Off
I bought a refurbished toshiba satellite p505d three days ago and it will randomly just turn off? It doesn't feel hot so i don't think its from overheating, and this morning when i tried to turn it on it wouldn't power up, my dad fixed that part but he doesn't know why it randomly turns off, he said it wouldn't power up tho because he thinks i froze the charging circuit.
