Unable to format laptop - Toshiba A45-S121 Notebook

use 'quick format recovery' tool for faster formats and have some patience to format 120 GB.

You will probably need to remove the drive and use another computer to format it. You can buy an adapter to connect it to another pc as a USB drive and format it this way. They are not very expensive. Hope this helps.

LLFTOOL is a utility for low-level disk drive formatting,
also supports formatting of FLASH cards using a card-reader.


1. Download this tool:

2. Format memory caard

(WARNING: After running this low level format tool,
the whole USB flash disk surface will be fully erased.
Therefore, data restoration will be impossible after using this utility!)

you reformat your hard disk and install guienuine microsoft window xp your problem will be fix

It seems that the card is bad. Try to format the card on a different machine to rule out your Windows formatter.

you should download memory retriever it fixes your memory card and retrieves your data. i had the same memory card and i thought it was from the memory card acting up so i got a new one. but it was kind of from both the phone and memory card but i downloaded the program and = ] my new memory card wasn't formatted so now am all good! both of them working because my san disk memory card wasn't working and it deleted all my data. so now it retrieved and now is working! give it a try! and tell me what happens

Check the DVD unit specs.
DVD 9 (dual layer DVD) is not for any drive only some are allowing to process.
You can try any external DVD drive (Multi standard ) connected via USB.

maybe you didn't install windows xp professional properly

The easyest way to format is with windows xp disk acting as a boot get into dos and format or install dos.
