Satellite L50-A-1d5 - cannot install Win 7 (32bit or 64bit)

Hi guys.
Very strange problem when i trying to install win 7.
I changed the bios setting to boot from cd and it works graet.
After the windows 7 install finish, the laptop resets and when the Windows 7 flag appears it's just freeze.(the keeps moving but nothing happend).
I allready tried 3 versions of windows 7 and always the same problem.
I also use Arconis via Hiren's and i cleaned the hard drive and installed again but..... the same problen accured.
any suggestions??
thanks a lot

What BIOS settings did you change exactly?
Usually you need to disable the secure boot and have to change the boot mode from UEFI to CSM mode.
By the way: did you use the clean original Microsoft installation disk to install the system or did you use an image backup for OS installation?

(SOLVED)Cannot install WINE (x86_64 Arch)

Hey.
I cannot install WINE. I already enabled =multilib=, did "pacman -Syu", restarted.
sudo pacman -S wine
error: target not found: wine
I did "pacman -Scc" a few times and chose "Yes" when I was asked to clear unused Repos.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Cannot install iTunes on windows 7 64bit

Okay, I like so many cannot install iTunes on Windows 7 64bit.
Now Orginally I got a message saying something to the effect of:
There was a problem with the install you do not have permission for something...
Through some investigating my iTunes was being installed and removing all my permissions to view and/or modify files within that folder. Even if I was logged in as admin and installed as admin all the permissions would simply block me out.
This kind of had a familar feeling as in the last few versions of iTunes I had to run as admin just to open it (this is really annoying by the way)
So I searched the net and many people were saying to uninstall everything "Apple" and try again. So I did that. Now I have this new message:
there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
And again I scoured the internet for a way to fix this. I apparently am supposed to goto Control Pannel/Programs and Features and select Apple Software Update and select repair. The problem is that no longer exists in my programs list since I removed it in the earlier step. iTunes still refuses to install spitting out the same error forever. I tried the Microsoft "fix it" tool which is supposed to remove the Apple Software Update incomplete uninstall (which is apparently the whole problem) but it doesn't show up in the list for "fixing".
I am at a loss. Why doesn't Apple fix this. I cannot update my iPhone to the latest software in fear I may need to restore it. With no iTunes that is impossible. I cannot change any of my music or do anything until this is resolved. If/when iPhone 5 comes out I cannot get it either unless this issue is taken care of somhow.
I searched for an installer for just the Apple Software Update program But it seems to not exist as a standalone thing (it would be useful if it were though). If it were perhaps I could install it again and then successfully remove/repair it and iTunes might install finally.
Now I have had previous versions of iTunes working perfectly fine. I do not recall which version I was using before I tried to update and fell into this abyss however.

Yes b noir. I've tried running just "iTunes64.msi" from the command-line and while it didn't produce the same error "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vender." it produced a different error in bold-type "iTunes Installer Completed" then "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured...Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified...Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit". However, I discovered a wealth of options from the Windows Installer to try after typing "iTunes64.msi passive"...So I'll experiment some more when I have time.
P.S. I'm becoming more convinced that Apple is putting new software out there to get it debugged which was a trick that MicroSoft always seemed to do:-)

Satellite Z930-14F - cannot install Win 8.1 from SCCM 2012 R2 environment

Dear all,
Sattelite Z series laptops cannot install OS (win 8.1) from our SCCM 2012 R2 environment.
Either no installation is starting, or pxe boot aborted error is showed.
The environment is used to successfully install OS (win 8.1) on different other vendor computers (dell) and virtual machines (hyper-v and vmware).
I've tried both UEFI and CMS boot options and tried to switch off the secure boot. Please advice.
Also, i've read about the "SCCM installation package for Toshiba". Will it help in my situation or is it just driver packages for SCCM?
Best Regards, Evgeny.

I guess you are speaking about this Toshiba package:
http://www.toshiba.eu/services/on-demand/business-computing/sdp120gs-v/
I dont have much experience using such SCCM drive package but it definitely compatible with the Toshiba business notebooks. The Satellite / Portege Z930 belong to the business range and I think the package should be compatible.
This package seems to be for all IT administrators who manage devices on the corporate network with SCCM 2012 R2. Toshiba offers with the new Toshiba SCCM package a solution to integrate other notebook into an existing IT infrastructure quickly and smoothly and all Toshiba Driver and application packages and a demonstration task sequence are integrated.
However, it seems that you could get more details about this package directly from Toshiba [email protected]
By the way: The Win 8.1 installation requires the UEFI mode (in case the UEFI BIOS is available). But booting from another, external source requires the disabled secure boot option.
So maybe you should use the UEFI mode but should disable the secure boot option in order to boot from LAN.

Satellite A300-1G2 can't install Win Xp - missing HDD

Hello,
I have just bought a new Satellite A300-1G2 without an operating system. Now I would like to install Win XP, however during instalation I receive a message that says that windows setup cannot find any hard drives installed on the system. What could be the problem?

I'm not sure whether what I'm going to write here is correct or not (oops) because I never did some of these stuff myself. To install XP I put my hard drive in compatibility mode just like you did and so far my XP works fine. BUT my install CD was a weird one so I cannot guarantee that this is the case for all others.
Apparently to put it back on the SATA AHCI mode you need to install a driver or software (sorry about being ambiguous but I decided to stick to using XP in the compatibility mode) called Matrix something. I'm sure there are hundreds of other threads on this issue so it's best for you to check them again and get some more correct information.
If you don't that and change your bios to SATA AHCI mode you'll get those horrible blue screens... That's as far as I know. Hope that helps

Cannot install Win 8 on a late 2013 iMac using bootcamp on 10.9

I'm trying to install Win 8 on a late 2013 iMac (purchased a couple of months ago)
I have a win 8 pro DVD, but obviously there is no DVD in this iMac. I usally use the DVD drive in my older 2009 iMac for any disk based installs but I can't appear to use it here.
I followed the instructions and downloaded a Win 8 Pro ISO from Microsoft to use with my authentication code, created a bootable USB using bootcamp, created the partition and rebooted. Once I'd entered the code I get to the install location but it says I cannot install on the partition created by bootcamp. Even if I format the partition it says I need a GPT drive but I have MBR, so won't let me install.
I tried several suggestions including creating aprtitions in various other programs and once I even got past that screen, but as soon as it tried to install I got another error saying the MBR was formatted incorrectly and it failed.
I had no issues installing Win 7 via bootcamp on the older iMac, but this one has me stumped. I used to think I knew a bit about computers, but I'm fairly new to Mac related issues as the older iMac has always just worked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I just installed Windows 8.1 on my Late 2013.
There are just a couple of things I had to do that deviated from the Boot Camp Installation Manual.
1. I downloaded my copy of Windows 8.1 as an ISO image AND as a bootable USB from the Microsoft site.
Not sure why I did that but it came in handy because Bootcamp was taking a very long time to copy the ISO onto the USB stick..
The ISO copying seemed to freeze up, but it's likely that it was just taking a long time, probably 20mins.
So, instead of waiting, I took the contents of the the USB startup stick and simply moved them over to the stick that Bootcamp had formatted for the ISO copy (I cancelled that copy function and deleted any files that had copied but didnt complete).
Once that was done, the machine rebooted from the USB stick and began the normal Windows setup process.
All went very smoothly except that my mouse was not working.
2. To get around the mouse issue, I simply plugged in a MS USB Mouse and it worked immediately.
The Bootcamp manual advised that the way around this was to 'click in upper right corner and search for Bootcamp'. Problem was, it was nowhere to be found.
So, using my MS mouse, I navigated to the 'DESKTOP' icon in Win 8.1 and found File Explorer, which showed my USB stick connected along with Bootcamp and the MS Support File (i.e. All the Apple Drivers).
I began manually clicking on all the driver files until realizing that there IS a Bootcamp executable which will automatically install the drivers for the Nvidia card, keyboard, camera, mouse, etc....
Once that was done, my installation was completed.
The entire process took about an hour, but now that I've done it, it really shouldnt take much more than 45 mins.
I have the late 2013 iMAC, with the GTX780M and 1TB Fusion Drive i5 Quad Core.
For those who are leery about doing this, please note that I'm a PC 'lifer' and this is my very first go-around with doing anything on an Apple product.
It all went much more smoothly than I could have imagined, but if you are not a PC person, you might be a little challenged finding the Bootcamp in File Explorer or doing anything in Win 8.1 to get over these minor hurdles.
Good luck!
I'm looking forward to getting STEAM up and running to see how this thing games!

Cannot install WINS Server Role on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard x64

Hi,
We are trying to install WINS Server Feature on a brand new Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard x64 (Virtual Machine). It seems that WINS is getting installed and right at the very end it gives an error 0x80070002.
We have tried rebooting the server multiple times , DNS/DHCP roles have been installed successfully as
well . It is just the WINS server feature that we are unable to install on this server.
Can someone point us to right direction. Are there any pre requisites we need to ensure before installing this feature. Are there any alternate ways to install
the WINS feature .. if yes please let us know.

The error indicates a File was not found:
C:\Users\Mark\Documents\Tools>err 0x80070002
# for hex 0x80070002 / decimal -2147024894

# for hex 0x2 / decimal 2
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
winerror.h
# The system cannot find the file specified.
# 5 matches found for "0x80070002"
I would check a few things:
1) Is the OS activated (Control Panel/System)
2) Is the OS fully patched and has it been rebooted since it was patched?

Cannot install win xp by boot camp

acturally, I install the Win Xp sp2 before, but I found the network very unstable, so I uninstall it. and the HD has already separated in two parts. however, when I want to install the win xp sp2 again, the Boot Camp showed that it cannot install in the HD which has two parts. to , How can I combin the two parts as original? use boot camp or others? thank you so much`!!

My guess is you deleted the Windows OS not using Boot Camp Assistant (which for future reference is the easiest way to to do it) & now you have an empty partition plus the normal OS X one, what you call 'separated parts.'
If so, just as the Boot Camp documentation mentions, Boot Camp Assistant will refuse to set up the drive for Windows since it only does this for a drive with a single OS X partition.
One simple solution is to run Disk Utility, select your HD from the list (not the volume name like "Macintosh HD" indented under it), & click on the "Partitions" tab. Locate the empty Windows partition in the window -- it should be the lower one of the two you see -- & click the minus button to remove it. Then drag the tab at the bottom right of the OS X partition down all the way to the bottom so that it uses all the space the just deleted partition occupied. Click Apply, wait for the procedure to end, & quit Disk Utility.
Now run Boot Camp Assistant again, following the instructions in the documentation, & it should be fine.

Satellite A500-17X: How to install Win XP mode for Win 7 64bit

I bought a Toshiba Satellite A500 17X Laptop recently.
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I have since upgraded to Professional. I am trying to download and install the XP Mode from the Microsot website.
I have quit a few bits of software mostly Astronomy which worked in XP but will not install on Windows 7.
From the Microsoft web site i selected Professional 64bit from the drop down list.
When i tried installing the file a message popped up saying: +This is not a valid Win32 file+
So i downloaded the Professional 32bit file.
When i tried to install this the same message popped up. According to the videos on the Microsoft web site this should be easy.
Anyone know what i am doing wrong.
Thank You.
Greyhound

I too recently bought a Toshiba A500 17X laptop. Like you I also need to run some legacy XP programs that do not run under Win 7.
So, I found out that I must upgrade from Win 7 Home Premium to Win 7 Professional. But .... before parting with 100 quid or so I thought I would investigate a little.
At the Microsoft web site:-
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx
It explains what steps to take.
At Step 2 you can run a tool to determine if 'your PC hardware works with Windows XP Mode...' This hyperlink takes you to the Microsoft Hardware-Assisted Virtualization Tool where you can download a guide and the tool to see if the PC is up to it.
I did this and it seems the hardware is NOT up to the task, nor as far as I can determine is there a switch in the BIOS to allow this.
Don't think it matters whether Win 7 is 32-bit or 64-bit.
This is really not good enough for a laptop that cost £700. ............or am I wrong?

Re: Satellite L50-B05D can't load Win 8.1 - bootable device not found

Hi
I have a Satellite L50-B05D and I recently downloaded the bios update and I applied it to my system. When I did it said that it contained the update already. After being on the laptop for a while, I closed the lid and it turnt off. When I turnt it back on Windows wouldn't load up and a message of bootable device not found occured.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Did you check the HDD status on the first BIOS page?
If HDD is OK, the first BIOS page should provide the info about the connected HDD (HDD name)
At the other hand the HDD might be faulty if its not listed on the first BIOS page.

Cannot install Win 7 Via BC with magic mouse? Its my only mouse. Answers??

I just got my new imac today with the only mouse I have...the magic mouse. I put my win 7 install DVD in through boot camp and no reception at all. How do I install win 7 without my magic mouse before I can install the drivers for it?

I had the same problem at first and I went and checked the solutions page on this site, their answer is to boot in mac and re-pair your mouse with your system after you have installed your windows bootcamp and it should work. I did that and my magic mouse works just fine in my windows partition. Hope this helps!

Coldfusion 9 Won't Install (Win 7 32Bit Prof)

I am trying to install CF9 onto my Win 7 32Bit pc. I downloaded the install and got the huge 440MB+ file called Coldfusion_9_WWE_win.exe
I double-click that file and after a few seconds I see the InstallAnywhere app begin to extract the files.... After that completes, I see a JAVA icon pop up in the taskbar and from that point on nothing happens. I did this a few times and on the last go I just let it run when I left for work. When I came back home about 10 hours later, it was still doing nothing. I checked the running processes and both Coldfusion_9_WWE_win.exe and Adobe_cf.exe are running but obviously nothing is getting installed.
I tried running it as administrator as well and that doesn't work either. What else can I do?

Well - Just in case anyone else has this problem - I found the reason it was failing AND more importantly the
fix....
So I extracted everything from the ColdFusion_9_WWE_win.exe file to see if maybe I could execute the install. When you extract the file you get two folders:
InstallerData
Windows
Inside the Windows folder is the adobe_cf.exe file When I clicked it, I noticed that almost immediately it wrote 3 files. two files with a long number string and a .details and .notes extenstion and another called centaur_err. When I checked these files I noticed some java errors - mainly the following:
java.lang.nullpointerexception
This got me thinking that maybe my installed version of Java was not playing nicely with the installer. So I checked my java version by going to the control panel and opening the JAVA control panel. I clicked about and it showed I had Java.Version 1.6.0_16. I then checked to see if there was an update. There was - to version 1.6.0_20. OK, so I updated Java. I then deleted those 3 files that were written at the last botched install. I kicked off adobe_cf.exe again.... Same crash - but something important stuck out.... SAME JAVA VERSION REPORTED - 1.6.0_16 not the newly updated version 1.6.0_20.
Could it be, the installer had cached my old version, or was it just not looking in the correct spot?????? There is one more file in the Windows directory that gets extracted, it is called adobe_cf.lax. Let's check that one and see what's in it???? Low and behold there is the following line in this file:
lax.nl.current.vm=resource\\jre\\bin\\java.exe
I changed this entry to point to my installation of JAVA ---- So my file now has this:
lax.nl.current.vm=c:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre6\\bin\\java.exe
I saved the file and ran adobe_cf.exe again, and YAY!!!!!! my install now works perfectly.

Qosmio G30-204 - Should I install Windows 7 32bit or 64bit?

Hi folks,
I have a Qosmio G30-204. I've upgraded the RAM to 4GB. It has Windows Vista 32bit currently installed.
I'm planning on installing windows 7.
Can I install Windows 7 64bit or would it have to be the 32bit?
What is the difference between 32bit and 64bit anyway?

Hi
If you have upgraded the notebook to 4GB RAM you should install Windows 7 64bit. On all 32bit OS you can only use ~3.2GB due the 32bit limitation.
Thats also the difference between 32bit and 64bit, the supported RAM size. ;)

Satellite A300D-15B PSAKCE - Cannot install the Win XP 64bit sound driver

Hello all,
This is my first post here after lurking for the last week or two, My hope is that somewhere here there is help and hence hope!
I have a wonderful Toshiba A300D-15B PSAKCE with 4GB/O RAM, however I am suffering from some problems that the holy SEARCH function cannot solve. I use this laptop as a development box for uni/work alas...
After an absolute nightmare with Vista32 and Vista64 I decided to go back to windows XP32, however this wont install, keeps claiming a CRC file failure after (and yes this is with the SATA in IDE mode and with an XPSP2 disk)
I decided that I really DONT want to goback to Vista, so installed Windows XP64. Now the initial Instal goes very easy, I have the basic setup, the chipset, graphics, network, processor, usb, pretty much the basic... except... and this is where I have lost most of my hair.... SOUND!
Firstly attempting to install the sound driver results in Failure, claiming the mmdriver.inf cannot be found or corrupt, obviously I checked, and yes there it is, for the sake of it downloaded the MMDRIVER.INF and placed it system32, and still the install fails.
I have also tried a "Manual Install", from the .inf files... this includes the XP32/64 drivers and the Vista 32/64 bit drivers, still the same
problem, driver continues to fail install. I am becoming increasingly bald. Outstanding Drivers that WONT install
*-Audio Device on High Defninition Audio Bus*
*-Mass Storage Controller*
*-Modem Device on High Defninition Audio Bus*
*-USB Device*
If the following is any help, (Sandra 2008)
*-Disk Controller*
(AMD(ATI) SB700 SATA Controller [IDE Mode])
*-Disk Controller*
(Toshiba SB700 IDE)
*-Audio Device*
(Toshiba IXP High Definition Audio Controller)
*-Audio Codec*
(Conexant Systems 5051h)
*-Audio Device*
(AMD (ATI) RV635 Audio device [Radeon HD 3600 Series]
Now, as I write this I have heard rumor that the A305D uses the same
audio/graphics drivers.... well.... off to try something I guess...
if there is any help or ideas I would appreciate it.

Thanks Jaba
Initially I attempted to locate the MS patches you mentioned, KB835221 and KB888111 respectively, alas there were none available that I could find for XP64, also at the time of tapping this message theres no XPSP3 for XP64 bit either.
Lucky for me I logged into my MSDN account and downloaded XP+XPSP3 tore the house up looking for a CDR... anyway long story short.... solved all the problems with the required updates of SP3, I now have my Toshiba A300D-15B all singing 'n dancing laptop setup completely with XP32.
Had to take a hit on the RAM though, gonnna have to go on with only 3.2GB instead of 4GB,
arguably when one counts the memory foot-print that vista ultimate 64 had used I am probalby still on a winner here in memory avaiable terms LOL!
thanks again! much help!

Re: Satellite A300 Cannot install Win XP because HDD is not visible

Hi

Someone told me i should install sata drivers can anyone help me?
A300 Psag0e

As I said there are a lot of threads about that check also the HowTo & FAQ are of this forum.
SATA driver is a part of Intel Storage Manger it can be downloaded from the Toshiba European driver page
You can attach the SATA drivers into the Win XP CD using the nLite software too.
Its for free
But the easiest way is to change the BIOS settings as mentioned above
