I was given a Toshiba Satellite A215-S7417 Laptop. The original recovery discs did not work, so I ordered a new set at 24.95, which Toshiba says is just for shipping the discs are free, but the new discs did not work either. I called their tech support and was told that I had to send the laptop to them to fix at my cost. The laptop will take discs from my desktop, my old laptop and even my fiances laptop, but it will not take the discs that belong to it. I do not have the money to fix it. I have bought a new harddrive and still it will not take the discs, then I bought a new memory stick and still it will not take the discs. I have noticed a lot of people on the internet with this problem and all of them have said toshiba says to send them the laptop and they will fix for a fee. Sounds like a bug in the laptop to make more money for toshiba.
