It comes to a point that my Toshiba is working very slowly, that I can make a cup of coffee, go to pee before it awitch on. Because of this I decided to make my computer like new again by re-installing my windows 7 64 bit.
It takes time for me to figure out how to install windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite L 505. I searched on the net on how to do those re-installing, each brand of computer has their own way of re-installing windows on their computer.
Normally you just need to insert the Windows CD and run it and the rest are follow the instructions. But with Toshiba their way is different and I have it here.
Good thing I still have the manuals and from there I read and follow the instructions. When we first use our Toshiba we ask to make a recovery CD and I did that.
Here is how to re-install Windows 7
1. Insert the first recovery CD that you made into the drive. ( for me, I have 2 CD) and shutdown the computer.
2. Turn on your computer while keeping the F12 key pressed to open the setup menu.
3. Use the cursor keys to select the optical disk drive (CD/DVD drives) on the menu.
4. Follow the instruction that are appearing on the screen.
5. Within 30 minutes your Toshiba is like new again.
When I bought my Toshiba it comes with pre-installed 64 bit windows 7 and it has no CD of it.
It also comes with a recovery CD of 32 bit windows 7.
64 bit windows 7 can perform a lot better than 32 bit specially in multitasking proccess like when you are running a lot of applications at the same time.
