Satellite R630-11L - can not install Windows XP SP2 Prof

I removed ald Hard disk -> insert new (SATA) Hard Disk -> Insert CD Windows XP SP2 Prof into DVD Driver -> Power Off.
The Power On -> Laptop reads CD Windows XP SP2 -> Installation process
But at the end, only "bluescreen": can NOT install (the CD ist already installed successfully for another old laptop.
I have 5 times to try.
Who has done successfully ?
Thank a lot!

I have a L650-PSK2cu that was a real hassle to get the drivers installed properly, but that was because I installed INTEL HD video drivers BEFORE the AUDIO and it made the installation of AUDIO drivers impossible. I had to do afresh install a second time. Once I did the 2ND fresh install and installed the COnexant Audio Drivers BEFORE the INTEL HD Video drivers it worked great. Live and learn. This machine with XP PRO runs 10 times better than Win 7 64 BIT. XP WON'T die for a while. I just hope people are archiving drivers before they become unavailable.
Make sure if you have anewer chipset intel i3,i5,i7 etc... tha you set the bios to compatibility mode if possible as well.

Satellite A200-137 - Can not install windows after hard disk crash

last week my a200-137 crashed and now i have new hitachi 500 gb hdd on it, same as before the crash.
I install with Toshiba recovery DVD windows Vista on it and after succesfull install i have to start windows, it says preparing windows for first use then i have to wait a moment and then i get the message that windows installation is not completed. But it is complete!
After trying for 3 times installing with recovert I tried to install windows xp.
After a couple of minutes and transering files, I get the message no disk found! It says that there is no hard disk on the laptop!
But when I start up the boot menu or the setup menu I can see the 500 gb Hitachi hard disk!
So why can windows not find the hard disk and why can I not start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?

> So why can windows not find the hard disk and why can I not start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?
On this virtual way it is not easy to say why you cannot install recovery image. It would be interesting to know if the same will happen when you replace HDD with the same or identical one.
Which capacity has had original HDD?
If possible try to obtain original Microsoft installation disc and check if HDD will be recognized by Vista or Win7 and of course if you will be able to install and start preinstalled OS.
About WXP installation: it is well known that WXP installation will not starts properly due to missing SATA driver that must be loaded before WXP installation starts.
Check this forum and you will find hundreds of threads with detailed explanation why this happen and what can you do about it.

Satellite Pro S300L - Can I install Windows 7?

Can I install windows 7 on my Satalite pro s300L if so which version 32 or 64 Bit?

Hello
First of all you can install what you want.
Why?
Its your notebook and you can do what you want with it! ;)
In my opinion its depending on the RAM which version you should install If you use 4GB or more RAM, choose the 64bit version. Otherwise 32bit is enough and therefore you can get all drivers here:

Satellite U500-10N - Can I install Windows XP?

Hello,
I have bought Satellite U500-10N and it has Vista but I want to install XP, is it possible?
My plan is to back up all my files, and then put installation CD of XP, delete all files of Vista and record fresh new copy of XP. And then install all nessesery drivers for my laptop to functional normal? Is it possible? :\ I
'm afraid if I install XP than some function on my laptop will not work.
I'm looking for help, plz if anyone know something i will be grateful

Hi
Theoretically you can install Windows XP, why not? ;)
But I dont understand why you want to use such an old operating system. I mean the Satellite U500 is really fast enough for Vista and in few days Windows 7 is the present. You should be happy with your preinstalled Vista version that should run well.
The point is that Toshiba doesnt offer drivers for U500 and XP so you have to collect all drivers yourself on the Internet that takes a lot of time. Furthermore I think some special functions like the FN keys will not work because there you can only get a driver from Toshiba.
Its your choice what you do but I would wait for Windows 7 if you dont like Vista Satellite U500 should also support Windows 7.

Satellite A100-011 - Can I install Windows 7 64bit?

Can you please tell me if I install Windows 7 64bit where I can find drivers, because they are not listed on Toshiba site.
Thanx.
Akis

Old notebook models are not supported for all operating system versions so you will not find these drivers on Toshiba support page.
What you can try is to search them on hardware manufacturers pages but I don't think you will find all of them.
You must also understand that new operating system is designed to run with newest hardware and it is always problematic to use newest OS with old hardware.
What you can also try is to check if some Satellite A200 has the same hardware and if A200 is supported for Win7 64bit you can use these drivers and try to install them on your A100.

Can not install Windows 8.1 to a Bitlocker Pre-Provisioned volume

Hello,
I'll come straight to the point. What I'm trying to do is to install Windows 8.1 Enterprise to a Pre-Provisioned volume but Windows does not let me do that. The steps I've performed are.
With Microsoft ADK I created me a WinPE media which has the components installed to get the manage-bde command working. I used the article hxxp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh824926.aspx for that.
I prepared an USB stick with the manage-bde components on it and booted my test laptop with it.
Started diskpart and used commens in order to get a new clean partition:
Select Disk 0
clean
Create Partition Primary
Format fs=ntfs quick
Assign letter=c
exit
After that I pre-provisioned the volume with the command:
manage-bde -on -used c:
When I check with manage-bde -status it states that:
Conversion Status: Used Space Only encrypted
Percentage: 100
Protection Status: Protection Off
Lock Status: Unlocked
Identification Field: Unknown
Automatic Unlock: Disabled
Key Protectors: None Found
OK. After that I use the net use command to map a network share with the Windows 8.1 x64 Enterprise installation media itself. I execute setup.exe without any parameters.
I can navigate all the way through the dialog "Where do you want to install Windows?". I can see there now "Drive0Partition 1" with a Total size of 119.2 GB and almost as many free space BUT when I select it and click next there comes
only a warning dialog saying:
We couldn't not create a new partition or locate an existing one. For more information, see the Setup log files."
The best description of the problem I've found from the file x:\windows\panther\setupact.log where are lines like:
BLOCKING reason for disk 0 offset bla bla is either "The partition is too small" (????) or "Bitlocker Drive Encyption is enabled on the selected partition".
What I am missing here? Is there a special trick how to get Windows installed on a pre-provisioned drive? I also loaded the correct driver for the disk controller but no help. As soon as I clean the disk and create the partition new without pre-provisioning
I can install Windows without any problems.
Sorry for the long text. Hope someone of you has an idea.
Regards
Robert

Hi,
For this issue,when you assign letter,you need to mark a partition as active.
Using a command line
1.Open Command Prompt.
2.Type: diskpart
3.At the DISKPART prompt, type: list partition
Make note of the number of the partition that you want to mark as active.
4.At the DISKPART prompt, type: select partitionn
Select the partition, n, you want to mark as active.
5.At the DISKPART prompt, type:
active
Hope this helps.

I have been trying to install windows 7 on my MacBook pro 17inch 2011, once i get to the step "burn a copy to a cd or DVD" the system runs and burns the information to the DVD but when the next step appears after I create the partition the program dose not recognize the DVD I created. when i save the copy to an external hard drive that is MS-DOS (FAT) formatted the same thing happens, the system just does not recognize the saved file. I have updated my computer and tired to check if I have any updates for the boot camp were available my current version is 4.0.1 (429). if there is anyone out there who can help, please do.

Satellite Pro A200 - Can't install Windows 7 due missing CD/DVD driver

Hello, I have a Satellite Pro A200, PSAE4E-046018N5 and I'm trying to install Windows 7 but I can't pass from step one because it doesn't found a driver:
A message box saying: A required CD/DVD drive devise driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD or USB flash drive, please insert it now.
-What to do?
CD-ROM is a HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20N ATA, the actual driver have version 6.0.6002.18005 (date:2006-06-21)
Best regards
/peter

Hi Peter,
Do you try an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If yes please try a new and clean installation of Windows 7. Does this work?
Another question: Is your CD/DVD drive working properly or is it listed with yellow exclamation mark in device manager?
In your case I would try to remove the drive from device manager and restart the notebook. After this the drive will be recognized automatically.

Satellite-A300-23E - Can I install Windows 7 Ultimate instead of Win7 Premium

Hello,
I bought a TOSHIBA laptop which has the following model: Satellite-A300-23E (Operational system is Windows Vista Home Premium)
I know that TOSHIBA offers an upgrade to Windows 7 but the problem is that they will provide me with Windows 7 Home Premium which I don't want.
Thus, I'm thinking to buy a full version of Windows 7 Ultimate (DVD).
Will be there any technical/software problems in case I remove the original operational system of the laptop and install Windows 7 Ultimate ?
By the way, I used Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and the result was positive !
Please, I need your help

You should try Vista's drivers, as I know, they are compatible:
For Webcam try this one:
http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/webcam-en-20090422172230.zip
For touchpad, there are 2 drivers:
Alps http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/tpdrv-en-20090320124756.zip
Synaptics http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/tpdrv-en-20090320132707.zip
talking about touchpad drivers, it can be Alps or Synaptics for your model, or can be both.

Press any key to continue . . .
any help or input would be much appreciated... thanks

Hi
If the WLAN card is not listed in device manager it doesn`t persist for the system and it can not be installed. In your case there is no existing WLAN card. If you are sure that the card worked properly before please contact service partner. I assume that the WLAN card is defective.
Bye

Satellite L450-136 - Can I install Windows XP?

I have just got a Satellite L450-136 with Windows 7 and all Toshiba Utillities loaded. I dislike Windows 7 and much prefer Windows XP.
Can I remove all Windows 7 and install Windows XP on this laptop?
Thanks.

Hey,
> Can I remove all Windows 7 and install Windows XP on this laptop?
Of course, you can install every OS that you want :)
But dont forget to create the Toshiba recovery disk as mentioned in user manual. If you want Windows 7 back with all drivers and tools you can restore it from recovery disk because it contains an image of factory settings.
Have you checked if you can get all drivers for your model and XP?

Can not install windows 7 pro using boot camp as mouse and keyboard will not work Help please

I have a new iMac and trying to install Windows 7 Pro using boot camp. I have reached the stage of starting to load windows from the DVD then discovered the mouse and the keyboards not working so I could not interact with windows installation.

Open, if not so already, the Windows formatter. Identify the BC Windows partition. It will be the one listed with the proper size you created and/or will be labeled as a C: drive. Be careful you select the right one or you may be corrupting the entire drive.
Format the partition as NTFS.

Satellite M50-106: Can't install Windows XP service packs

Hi
I have a Satellite M50-106. I have a WinXP CD without SP1 or SP2 that I would like to install (don't ask me why:) Anyway, I can't get past the "setup is starting windows" screen, computer just freezes. Must be some driver issue. Does anybody know which driver is needen?
Peter

Hi
Its very strange and its not easy to give you a precise answer.
I recommend formatting the whole HDD.
If you install the Windows from the original Microsoft CD you should finished the OS installation. Then you should install firstly the SP1. Start the OS. Check if the SP1 was installed (you can see it in the system properties) If the SP1 was installed properly you have to install SP2.
After this procedure you can try to install the Toshiba stuff.
Good luck
