HDD Recovery Utility won’t open on Toshiba laptop

In my Toshiba Satellite E205 laptop I was using Windows Vista operating system and recently I have upgraded the operating system from windows vista to windows 7 in my Toshiba Satellite E205 laptop. While upgrading the operating system in my laptop I have not removed recovery partition. Now problem is whenever I start my Toshiba laptop and then try to start Toshiba HDD Recovery Utility by using the “0” key at that time it does nothing.

I have looked in to the partition manger in my Toshiba Satellite E205 laptop and all recovery partition was there. i tried to open Toshiba HDD recovery utility many times by pressing the “0” key start up but that does not helped me to solve this problem. I have removed battery from Toshiba Satellite E205 laptop and then pressed power button for some seconds and then I have start my laptop and then restored the BIOS default setting but that does not helped me to resolve this problem. if anyone have solution regarding this problem them let me know.

To use HDD Recovery Utility you have to go to the System Recovery Options in your laptop and then you will get option to open HDD recovery tool. I am telling you this because there was similar problem occurred in friends laptop and then I he contact the Toshiba support and they have replied that HDD Recovery Utility can be accessed by opening the System Recovery Options and selecting the recovery tool.
