There is a hidden partition on the hard drive with all of the information necessary to restore your laptop.

To access this partition, start with the laptop off.

Press the power button to start your laptop. As soon as you see anything on the screen, press and hold the 0 (zero) key next to the - key on the keyboard for about 5 seconds. When you let go, this should launch the restore program on the hidden partition.

Hope this helps or just go to ezrestorepc.com for any recovery needs including the toshiba ones.

On newer Toshiba's (2007+) try pressing the 0 [zero] button down when you start the machine. This should give you some Factory recovery options.

If you get no joy from this then you could try the answer below, but the Load OPTIMAL DEFAULT button will reset your bios, not your operating system (to my knowledge).

restart your laptop. press delete while re starting at the CMOs set up choose LOAD OPTIMAL DEFAULT

You need the FACTORY RECOVERY DISK/s to do this, you need the L30/L35 Series, remember these are NOT the same as L30X/L35X Series(see the diference in "X").

Just go to ezrestorepc.com for any System recovery disk including the Toshiba ones.

Your toshiba satellite a200 laptop will not go to the recovery screen when you press 0 while turning on as advised by various websites you do not have recovery dics as you didnt get any with your lapt?

well it should be the F10 or F12 button. There should be a hidden partition on the laptop that has the recovery CD on it. it will just load it from there. If you try both of those then most likely the recover partition is not there. Another thing you can do is either go to toshiba and order a recovery CD. Now keep in mind that some Toshiba don't have recovery partitions and you have to create your own recovery CD. The satellite series are notorious for this. I have seen this 1 to many times.
