How to Perform a Full System Recovery on Your Toshiba Satellite C660 Windows 7 64bit Laptop

If you are experiencing problems with your Toshiba Satellite C660 Windows 7 64bit laptop, such as virus infections, corrupted files, or system errors, you may want to perform a full system recovery to restore your laptop to its original factory settings. A full system recovery will erase all your personal data and applications from the hard drive, so make sure you back up any important files before proceeding.

There are two ways to perform a full system recovery on your Toshiba Satellite C660 Windows 7 64bit laptop: using the partitioned recovery method or using the recovery CDs/DVDs/media. The partitioned recovery method is free and does not require any external media, but it only works if you have not deleted or modified the hidden recovery partition on your hard drive. The recovery CDs/DVDs/media method requires you to purchase or create the recovery media beforehand, but it works even if you have deleted or modified the hidden recovery partition.

Using the Partitioned Recovery Method

Turn off your laptop and unplug all the cables except for the power cable, monitor, mouse and keyboard.

Hold down the "0" key on your keyboard.

Restart your laptop. The Toshiba Recovery Wizard will be displayed.[^3^]

Select "Recovery of Factory Default Software" and click "Next".

Select "Recover to out-of-box state" and click "Next". This is the recommended recovery method that will restore your laptop to its original factory image.[^1^]

Read and accept the warning message and click "Next".

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the recovery process. The recovery process will require restarting your laptop several times. It may take one to two hours to complete.

After the recovery process is complete, be sure to perform Windows update to get your operating system current as well as run Toshiba Service Station to download and install any updates as well.[^1^]

Using the Recovery CDs/DVDs/Media Method

If you have not purchased or created the recovery media for your laptop, you can do so by visiting this link and following the instructions.[^1^]

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the recovery process. You may be asked to insert more recovery CDs/DVDs/media as needed. The recovery process will require restarting your laptop several times. It may take one to two hours to complete.

After the recovery process is complete, be sure to perform Windows update to get your operating system current as well as run Toshiba Service Station to download and install any updates as well.[^1^]
