Your Toshiba Satellite A215-S7422 came with Windows Vista pre-installed.
So you should be able to use your Windows 7 installation disc as a recovery disc.
How to: Recover your Toshiba Satellite to Factory Default" pressing the zero key I does not work for my Toshiba Satellite
A105-S4021 WIN XP is their another way I can do Recovery I also remove battery for 30 sec and the tried the o, and all the f key and then the f key while holding the crtl key can you help
me. Right now I can not afford the recovery disk is their anyway I can get a download and load on to a DVD CD
If the built in recovery on a laptop wont work and you have no recovery discs, there is only ONE way to get a new set...
You PAY the manufacturer for a set which they will post to you (sometimes)
You CANNOT use a set from another model (it wont work)
The ONLY other way to do it which is complicated, is to load your Operating system from a standard disc (WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM - as an example) then you go to manufacturers site and download ALL the hardware drivers for your lappy (graphics, sound, touchpad, chipset et etc etc...
Then you do ALL the service packs and updates etc....
It takes around 4 to 6 hours to do it that way....I own a laptop repair company in the UK , and we have to use this last method a LOT, as customers rarely want to pay the manufacturer for recovery discs plus our labour to load them etc....
