Portege 3480: How to reinstall the Windows 2000

I have got the laptops original cds, a new copy of W2000 and i can't get any of them to work. I have used the toshiba exteral cd rom to install the cds and a freecom drive. When i use the tosh external drive it gets as far as looking for my pcmcia card cdrom (the free com and then dies).
My second aproach was just to install 2000 and i got to the page where is asks to recover or install and when you use install it says no hd was found you might need manufature cds, which dont work.
Any ideas on how to get round this problem, i have a copy of 95, 98se and 2000.
Dom

I have tried the diskette and it doesn't seem to work, i get the message remove media and press any key to restart. I have got the windows 2000 installer to work but when it gets to the page that states, press enter to install, r for repair ECT when you press enter is states " You may to power up your harddrive (Done and Checked), You may need your manufacture disks to install (Well the disks i got don't work). It would seem the laptops hard drive was locked by toshiba. Windows 2000 which is already installed on it seems to work fine but has problems with closing down and i can copy paste and even get to the Internet. I have tried all the bootcds and floppys that i own. What drivers do i actually need from toshiba to make an install of windows 2000 on to the computer. There must be a cd/floppy that unlocks the harddrive for os installs.

    How to reinstall my windows 7 operations system

    You have to boot from the DVD. Put it in the optical drive, then shut down the laptop. Immediately after powering it on tap the Esc key. From the menu tap F9 Boot options. Use the arrow key to move down and highlight/select the CD/DVD drive, the tap Enter.

  • How do i get Windows 2000 off the VPC 5 disc to install with VP 7

    VPC 5 With windows 2000 upgraded to VPC 6 ran great. But hey I thought lets upgrade so I bought VPC 7 Stand-alone, installed XP PRO and it is soooooo
    Sloooow. I want to get Windows 2000 off the VPC 5 disc to install on VPC 7 to see if there is a difference. Yeah we got 1.5 gigs of Ram and a Dual processor
    Machine. Maybe something else is going on but I cant figure what. So How do I get Windows 2000 off that VPC 5 disc???

    Yep tried that. No go but thanks.
    Some of the previous versions of the VPC CDs
    (unfortunately, I can't remember which) were hybrids
    and doubled as not only the VPC for Mac installer CD
    but also the Windows OS installer CD. You might try
    creating a new virtual PC and then when asked for a
    Windows installer disk, insert and capture your VPC 5
    disk. I have no idea if this will work for you.
    Later versions of VPC came with the Windows OS
    pre-installed on VPC disk images and not with a
    Windows installer. If your version has a disk image,
    copy it from your version 5.0 CD and try opening that
    in VPC 7.0. You should see a conversion process.
    Hope this helps! bill

  • Where to download the "Windows 2000 Wireless 802.1X hot fix"?

    From the "Cisco Aironet Wireless LAN Client Adapters Configuration Guide for Windows", it indicates that Windows 2000 can support host-based EAP with the "Service Pack 3 or greater and the Windows 2000 Wireless 802.1X hot fix".
    However, I cannot find the 802.1x hot fix in Microsoft. Please kindly advise how I can download this hot fix. And, what is the function of this 802.1 hot fix?

    Well then when you erased your hard drive, your erased the Recovery partition, also.
    Use Internet Recovery to either restore from your Time Machine backup or reinstall the OS if you don't have a TM Backup.
    It will install the OS that shipped on that Mac. You can then upgrade via the App Store.

  • How to setup the windows installed pxi to RT target

    how to setup the windows installed pxi to RT target?

    Ranjith,
    I think the answer for your 1st que is NO. In the sense, you can run the code, but it may not work precisely as it is supposed to...
    A target can be said to be an RT, if & only if it has an RTOS installed in it, not just Windows, which is not a real-time OS.
    Youcan run the existing code in Windows, but as I said earlier, it may not give you the actual results.
    Finally, hereafter, pl dont use the term 'box' for a PXI. It is a chassis with a main module that runs on Windows or an embedded RT processor/conrtoller that runs on an RTOS like VxWorks or Phsr Lap.
    Hope this helps you to some extent...

    How to get the Windows Vista Driver for ATI Radeon 7500 card?
    I am using a IBM Thinkpad T42 with a 32Mb ATI Radeon 7500 graphic card AGP.
    Is there any Vista 32-bit driver to update my card so that this system support Aero effect?
    Thank you.

    The Radeon 9000 driver works for the Radeon 7500 card.  I have successfully used it on a T43 with Vista Ultimate x86

    Unfortunately no.  The Radeon 9000 driver should bring your graphics score up to close to 2, but it will not get it high enough to enable Aero support.

    Sanjeev:
    Maybe you can help. I haven't been able to resolve this one "small" problem which is preventing me from rolling out iWS6.0 SP2. I created a new instance of the server using "Add Server" so that I have 2 Web sites (e.g. test1.domain.com and test2.domain.com), but the 2nd server instance is pointing to the same HTML location as the first (i.e. http://test2.domain.com takes you to the same location as http://test1.domain.com). What do I need to change and where to fix this? Need a VERY quick answer to this to implement a production Web server. I've tried the suggestions made so far (see: http://softwareforum.sun.com/servlet/ProcessRequest?RHIVEID=181&RPAGEID=135&HOID=50B500000008000000966A0000&UCATEGORY_0=_23_%24_6_&UCATEGORY_S=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_QUESTION_0=server+instances&USEARCHCONTEXT_QUESTION_S=0) but nothing has resolved this problem. If you have any ideas at all, I'd appreciate if you could let me know :)

  • How to change the Window Title on a per build spec basis?

    I would like to be able to make 4 "build specificiations" against the same Startup-VI and be able to have the Window Title different in each of the output executables.   I know how to change the Window Title for the VI itself, but for some reason, I don't see the ability to override this information in Source File Settings --> Customize VI Properties dialog of the build specification.    Is there perhaps a way to do this programattically with VI server?  Perhaps there is a way I can define a unique symbol on each of the build specs and then do a case statement in code to determine which title to display based on the symbol that was defined?
    Thanks,

    You can use the appropriately named Window Title property. In your project you can define conditional disable symbols (right-click on the project node and select Properties) and then use a conditional disable structure in your code. However, these symbols apply to the entire project, not to a specific executable. Thus, a better route would be to use the executable name (also accessible via a property), if possible, or some other distinction between the executables. What makes the executables different?
