I don't know if this is your problem, but the story I heard goes like 
this. Lots of people were going to be laid-off my Toshiba and they knew 
it. And it least one model, had at least four different versions and 
chipsets. And one recovery CD wouldn't work if they didn't match. Even 
if the model numbers were the same with a different chipsets. And many 
laptops came with the wrong one.
