Satellite A60: Can I install Vista and where to find drivers

Hi,
I have a SATELLITE A60: pentium 4 HT 3Ghz, 512MB RAM, HDD 40GB, LAN/WAN/WIDI, irda,
I want to know if I could install windows Vista ultimate edition, and where can I find the appropiate drivers of devices for Windows Vista,
thanks

Hi
Of course you can install the Vista on your notebook. I have installed the Vista on my old A50 and it works. Ok, Im not able to use the additional features like Aero for example but the OS runs.
The driver situation is a little bit tricky simply said, there are no Vista drivers published I have found some singles Vista drivers on some device manufacturers sites but at this time there are no Toshiba drivers for this notebook.
PS: on the Toshiba Canada website I have found single drivers for some newer Toshiba notebook:

Satellite L350 - Can't install Vista and how can I backup my data?

Hi to all
I have a Satellite L350 and recently I've installed Vista Home Premium in a different language (the OEM Vista was in English) hoping I could activate it with the OEM key, but I didn't succeed.
When I wanted to re-install the OEM Vista from WinRE I realized I can't access it and then I had a "brilliant" idea that if format the C partition with the Acronis Disc Director it would boot from WinRE. It didn't.
Fortunately Ive burned the recovery discs before. The only problem is that the recovery disc formats the entire HDD and I have data on the second partition I've would like to retrieve.
I tried to install again the retail Vista to backup the data from the second partition (yes, I'm an idiot, I didn't do it before) but it stops after the first reboot. I get a black screen with a low dash blinking.
I really need that data, please help!

Hi!
I can tell you why you cant install a retail version of Vista by using the product key. This is pretty easy because the key on the bottom side on the notebook belongs to the preinstalled OEM version and cant be used by a retail version.
However, I think the best way to backup your data would be that you put the HDD in an external HDD case and then you can backup your data on another PC or notebook.
Such external HDD cases are not expensive but very useful.

Hello, I have long been using Mozilla Firefoh, but I can't restore a theme (in the browser before I used the theme in anime), I do not remember how to install it and where to find, maybe it was not a topic, and skin. Please help me solve this problem.

(in the browser before I used the theme in anime), I do not remember how to install it and where to find, maybe it was not a topic, and skin.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Satellite L350D - Can't install Vista

Hi there,
I've just bought an L350D. I've followed the instructions to get the computer up and running for the first time but vista doesn't install.
The install utility appears, asks what language I want, and when english is selected, shows a screen saying
"select the item you want" with "english(windows vista)" highlighted and in a separate panel beneath "current recovery drive is 119gb".
when i click next a window pops up with "checking for hddi" , then "hddi not found" and then "error could not move v:\_img\07261xsp.swm to v:\hddrecovery\swimg".
it then says "press any key" and then does nothing.
It looks to me like I should out in a disk but I wasn't supplied with any disks. It also looks like vista is there but it can't find it.
Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Martyn

Hi!
To be honest I think its a hardware issue because the problem started at the first time.
Im not sure but it could be a problem of the HDD. You can check this with Drive Fitness Test. Its freeware and pretty easy to use. Download the image, burn it on a CD and then start from it.

If the HDD is faulty you should bring it back to the computer dealer and ask for a replacement. This is a warranty case.

Satellite A350-13D - Can I install Vista 64bit?

Hi
(excuse me, I can't speak english very well, sorry if I write with faults)
3 days ago, I bought an Toshiba Satellite A350-13D. It has 4GB RAM, but Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit is installed. The computer can use only 3GB.
Can I install Vista Home Premium 64 Bit to use the totality of RAM (4GB)? Where can I download the driver for my computer?
Thanks for your help :)
Have a nice day

Hi!
Of course you can I install Windows Vista 64bit Why not? What do you think?
On the Toshiba website I can find all drivers for Vista 64bit on Satellite A350 so it should all working properly with Vista 64. Check it yourself:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
But note there are two different BIOS versions available One for 32bit and one for 64bit. After installing Vista 64bit you must update the BIOS too.

Satellite Pro A200 - Is there any way I can re-install Vista?

Hi,
I bought an A200 a couple of years ago pre-installed with Vista Home Premium.
Recently I got a virus and had to re-install windows which I tried unsuccessfully from the recovery disks I had made from the Toshiba recovery programme. After several attempts I decided to install Ubuntu 9.1 instead, which I have been happy with, however certain features, such as no sound through HDMI, have not worked so I would like to re-install Vista.
I believe the install files for the pre-installed Vista are on a partition somewhere on my A200.
Is there any way I can re-install Vista?
Thanks

Hi Sched7,
There is no recovery partition on Toshiba notebooks. Only a folder with an image is stored on the second partition but as MisterX wrote, if this would be available its too late now since you installed Ubuntu
In your case I would try the recovery disk again. I noticed also a problem with the disk after I had a virus. I had to wipe the whole HDD first by using Microsoft disk. After this I tried the recovery disk again on a clean HDD and it successful!!!
In worst case you have to install Vista from a Microsoft disk. You can download all drivers and tools on the Toshiba website.

After installed win7 on my mac pro(mid 2012/mountain lion), I can not connect internet and where can i find drivers in mountain lion system.
I donot think I have a install disk when I bought my mac, there is only a disc partition for recovery system.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have to install Boot Camp drivers. On Mountain Lion, you have to download them.
First, press X key while your Mac is starting to start into OS X. Then, open Boot Camp Assistant and select the option to download the drivers. You will have to burn them into a DVD or USB drive, so after downloading them, restart and install them into Windows

Re-installing vista and itunes

I got my iPod Touch back in November and purchased the Jan and July s/w updates. My iTunes runs on a Windows vista PC, which I need to re-install due to some disk issues.
I've heard that if I re-install Vista and hence the iTunes s/w, my software purchases from Jan and July might be lost. Can someone pl. point me to some resource so I can do this safely without losing the s/w upgrades?
Thanks.

P6N DIAMOND CAN'T INSTALL VISTA NO MASS DRIVE FOUND

Trying to install Vista and no drive found to install OS. Using Sata Samsung Optical Drive and tring to install to a single Sata WD 150 Raptor. I installed Nraid dirver when prompted using USB and Vista still won't find the hard drive to install. Looking for any ideas. I can access the c: drive through DOS prompt and I formatted there but the Hard Drive is not available in the Vista install screen.
P6N diamond
EVGA 7950
WD 150 ADFD
Samsung SATA optical drive
2GB Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800
Seasonic M12 SS600

The HDD is on SATA 1 and the DVD is on SATA 4. The odd thing all this time it was showing in BIOS and I was able to access via command prompt. I did check the BIOS again and the on chip SATA mode was IDE. I had set the BIOS using the optimized defaults until the OS is loaded. I believe the OnChip SATA mode is IDE with that default, I checked it anyway and was set to IDE.
This AM I added the Floppy drive loaded the drivers on a floppy on another computer, booted into Vista and booted into Vista instal and the HDD was shown before I tried to load the drivers. What occurred to finally show up I have NO IDEA. Must be one of the unexplainable computer things. But I was finally able to install Vista and get it up and running!
Thanks for all the help and suggestions!

How many times can I install Photoshop and Premiere Elements 13?

How many times can I install Photoshop and Premiere Elements 13?

mbuenger
Are you referring to how many times can I install, uninstall, reinstall Photoshop Elements 13 or Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer?
Or, how many of your computers can have a same purchased activated serial number at the same time for either of these products?
If the former, I know of no limit.
If the latter, the answer would be as John as mentioned.

Hi Warsame12,
It is worth mentioning that don’t use IPV6 PXE, Windows 7 doesn’t support WDS 2012 deployment over IPv6 PXE. If IPv6 PXE boot is enabled and a
Windows 7 installation is selected, a blank screen will appear and Setup will not run.
The related KB:
Windows 7 client deployment over IPv6 PXE network boot does not work.
