Would Satellite U300-11V run Vista Home Premium 64?

Dear all,
I have a Toshiba Satellite U300-11V
The laptop came with Vista Home Premium (32) and I would like to upgrade to the 64-bit version and I am wondering whether my hardware is actually compatible with it.
I tried the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor but that had nothing to do with 32 vs 64.....
You can find full specs of my laptop at:
http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=132428&DISC_ MODEL=1&service=UK&tab=2#2
Any suggestion would be deeply appreciated
Kind regards
R

Of course its compatible with the Vista 64bit OS.
The Satellite U300-11V belongs to the PSU30E series.
I checked the Toshiba European driver page if a 64bit Vista drivers are available but unfortunately, they are not released.
However, you would be able to install the Vista 64bit on your notebook but you will have to collect the single 64bit Vista drivers from other notebook series.
Many notebooks series are equipped with the same devices and sometimes you can use the same drivers on different notebooks.

  • Satellite A350D-005- Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Bit and Burning

    Hi. I recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite A350D (PSALEC-005004). It has a 64 bit processor running vista home premium 64 bit. I have never been able to successfully burn a cd or a dvd. I have tried nero 7, 8 and 9, along with Roxio Easy Media Creator 10, along with a few other various software. Nero ends up in it haulting around 10%, then eventually saying that the burning process has failed, resulting in me either having to turn the computer off to remove the wasted disc or if im using my external burner i have to turn it off then back on. When I use Roxio it seems like its going to burn until the end, where it seems to hault again. What am I doing wrong or what can I do to fix this problem?

    Okay, I tried burning a CD and DVD using Vista's built-in software, and it says this after attempting: "There was an error burning the disc. The disc may no longer be usable." I have no clue as to why the computer will not let me burn using any program. I have tried using my external Sony DVD burner that works on my 32 bit system, and it wont work on this 64 bit machine either. Any suggestions as what to try next?
    Also, whenever it decides to quit burning, the burner seems to keep going and wont stop unless I shut the computer off (for the internal burner) or Turn off the power to the external burner. It also disappears from the list under the "Computer (My Computer)" section.

  • Save and quit feature not working on FF4. Always worked in Firefox 3.6.Running Vista home premium

    When I close firefox 4 the option to save the open tabs is not offered. Only choice is to cancel or close tabs. Running vista home premium. Only extensions are adblocl plus and image zoom

    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get back the previous session.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
    Another possibility is to use:
    *Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
    You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click.

  • The system recovery disks I made for my HP dv7-1132 NR running Vista Home Premium 64 bit won't work.

    I just bought this laptop and I want to wipe the drive clean. It is an HP dv7-1132 NR with Vista home premium 64 bit but still on Service Pack 1. It came with no system restore disks so I made my own through the System Recovery Manager. Apparently the disks were created without any problems as there were no errors.
    When I tried to use the first disk however (by inserting the first disk into the dvd drive and re-starting the computer, Once it has re-booted I get the message:  
    "This PC is not supported by the system recovery disks. You will not be able to recover this system with these disks"
    Can anyone help me help me to either get these discs working or give me another work around that will wipe this hard drive? I am not a techie so my knowledge base is rudimentary. If you can give alot of detail in any possible fixes, that would be great!!!1
    Thanks. and Happy 4th of July Americans!!!!

    Usually this is caused by missing info in the BIOS and must be corrected by service from HP. Enter BIOS by tapping away at the F10 key immediately after power on. Is all system info there,serial,etc?

  • ITunes 8 won't run on my laptop (running Vista Home Premium)

    Help. Upgraded to iTunes 8 two days ago and it doesn't work. I get a message that says iTunes help module has stopped working and then a message that iTunes has experienced an error and must close (after the interim message that Windows is looking for a solution). I've tried reinstalling iTunes 8 twice with same result. It won't run and now I can't even get an older version of iTunes to install (because it says I have a "later" version already on the computer). What gives? It's very frustrating and right now I don't have a working version of iTunes! Apple folks - can you help?

    Click download now and press the same button on the next screen.
    The second screen will be the subscribe by email prior to download. Just press the download key to bypass.

    I have recently installed Firefox 20 on both my computers. One is a Dell mahine running Vista Home Premium, one is an Asus running Win 7 Home Premium. I have never had any trouble running Firefox on either of these machines before.

  • Mac Book Boot camp and Vista Home Premium  - will it run ok?

    I have the latest black Mac Book with 2GB of ram installed. Will this allow Boot Camp to run Vista Home Premium ok? Or should I go for Parallels instead?

    I run the exact same system. The Vista performance test scores are as follows:
    Processor 5.1
    Memory 4.6
    Graphics 3.3
    Gaming Graphics 3.1
    Primary Hard Disk 4.8
    Obviously this is not a system for really high end gaming, but the average user will be very pleased with the performance. Do not forget that you can use a flash memory USB device with ReadyBoost to get a little bump in these numbers.
    I could not be happier with how Vista Home Premium runs on my Macbook. It takes 3X the time to start up as Mac OS X.

  • Vista Home Premium - Error code 80070490 - Windows update

    Computer - Satellite 200
    Operating system - Vista Home Premium (service pack 1)
    Problem - When I try to update from Windows Update (both manual and automatic) I get error code 80070490
    I have tried - System restore, downloading and paying for "RegCure" and following instructions on Microsoft forum all without success.
    The computer was supplied with a recovery disk which does not have "repair" facility.
    If you have a solution that does not involve a full re-load I would be very grateful
    Please make instructions comprehensible to a non-techno!
    Thank you

    This error may occur if the older Windows Update engine files cannot be
    replaced by Windows Update Agent 3.0 (7.0.6000.374).
    To troubleshoot this issue, I suggest we first reset permission and
    reinstall Windows Update Agent 3.0.
    Step 1: Reset permission
    ================
    1. Please download the subinacl.msi file from the following link and save
    the installation patch onto the Desktop:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...inityDownloads
    2. Please go to the Desktop and double click the downloaded file.
    3. Please select the C:\Windows\System32 folder as the Destination Folder
    during the installation. Later we will use this tool to reset the permission
    settings on the current machine.
    Note: If UAC (User Account Control) window is prompted for permission to
    continue, please click Continue.
    4. Click the Start Button, in the Start Search bar, type: "notepad" (without
    quotes) and press Enter.
    5. Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad
    window:
    @echo off
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f
    @Echo =========================
    @Echo Finished.
    @Echo =========================
    @pause
    6. After pasting the above commands, please close the Notepad window. Choose
    Save when you are prompted to save the file. Type "reset.bat" as the file
    name and choose Desktop from the left panel as the save location.
    7. Refer to the Desktop and right click the reset.bat file, then choose "Run
    as administrator."
    8. You will see a DOS-like window processing.
    NOTE: It may take several minutes, please be patient. When it is finished,
    you will be prompted with the message: "Finished, press any key to continue".
    Step 2: Reinstall Windows Update Agent 3.0
    ===========================
    1. Please download the file from the following link:
    Windows Vista (32bit)
    http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x86.exe
    Windows Vista (64bit)
    http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x64.exe
    2. Save the file to D: drive.
    Note: Please select a drive where Windows Vista was not loaded because the
    file cannot be launched directly from the system root directory.
    3. Click Start->Run, type: "D:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce"
    (without quotations) and then press Enter to install the Windows Update
    engine.
    Note: There is a space between "D:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe" and
    "/wuforce"
    Now, let's run Windows Update again.

  • Solved Vista Home Premium Start up / shut down loop

    Ta Da    The  C:\windows\winsxs      ETC.       that was my solution  found it on this site and other sites and decided to try it:
    It was actually the 3rd choice of solutions on that particular page  and  I could not complete the solution as directed because the files I was supposed to delete were not there, funnily enough that is why I chose that solution as I really did not believe it was an update error but may provide me with a    "Look Inside" .  So I followed along and it would not let me delete the file as instructed but it let me rename it   I did rename 1 file and rebooted. Everything proceeded as normal but it actually finished loading the NVidia driver for onboard graphics  ( which was where it was crashing ) and that was it.
     I still dont know for sure why it would not load the driver and  I never did get any blue screens or failed update messages or error codes. On the upside I now have a working repair disk that I didnt have before, and created a backup that I didnt do before 
    I have an HP Pavilion  m 7580n   ( Media Center) that is locked in a start up shut down loop.
    It starts normally and runs up normally until the desktop flashes on the screen for about 3 seconds. At this point It is still loading things like the Internet connection , Icon indicates connected, nvidia control panel icon. It never gets any further than that.....?
    if I am  fast enough to dbl click an icon it will load whatever the icon represents but will immediately flash to the "Shutting down" screen. It then shuts down and auto starts the loop again. 
    I have  also tried   ctrl / alt / del   and I get there but it crashes instantly.
     The machine is now running   Vista Home Premium.  Upgraded from XP by an online download so I have no OEM disk.
    I dont know if it is 32 or 64 bit I would guess 32 as it was an XP upgrade
    What I have tried so far
    I have ruled out ANY Hardware problems by swapping hard drives and loading a different OS.   Win 7 on it and everything works fine for hours.  Benchmarks, stress tests, temp tests, games, mem tests
    I have made a vista repair disk and tried all of the "Non Destructive" options  available.
    I have tried every safe mode option.
    I have hooked the problem hard drive to another computer and accessed it that way, and ran virus scanners
    and clean and repair programs. No Bad sectors, clusters, nothing bad
    I have removed all "Junk" and files I can replace
    I have striped all unnecessary hardware. swapped RAM, Vid Cards  ETC.
    I have tried all of the above both connected and not connected to the Internet and everything many times and many differant combinations.
    Nothing has made any difference at all
    A little history of the machine.
    It was bought second hand with the Vista Installed and came with a paper  sticker with a hologram
     and a Key That was apparently mailed after the online update ?
    It was activated and displayed windows genuine logo in System Folder
    It received updates automatically and by request no problems.
     I mention this only because I cannot be absolute certain it is a legal copy and was wondering if this is some sort of disabling of pirated software or an expired demo?
    It was used in a cottage  where it could possibly of had a power failure during an auto update. I mention this as some update problems resemble my problem. I have shied away from trying those fixes as they involve elevated commands and such and my knowledge in that area is very limited. and I dont have any of the stages loading screens 
    It would be easy for me to format and reload an OS But the files I want are protected and I cant access them from another computer.
    I havent Listed any Hardware as I am satisfied it is not a hardware issue  However it is the  AMD X 2 64 version
     Any Non hardware related suggestions would be appreciated as I am certain this hardware all works
    I get no BSOD's no errors.
     Thanks for reading my lament

    Do this, and while it is in the open re-examine your cpu pins w/ a bight light and hd zoom or a magnifying glass.
    Thanks, xmad, I'll look at th CPU again tomorrow/next day under the glass when I take the board out.  I already checked them under magnification and was leaning toward a funky board, but it never hurts to re-check.  Eyesight is not what it used to be, for sure (I miss DOS, if that's a clue...).  Don't want to flash the BIOS if not necessary, since it runs Windows fine and everything works except that RAM.
    Bernhard, I don't have CPU-Z installed on that machine and don't want to install anything else until it's working normally.  I'd never seen Click-Bios before and just need to get over my initial suspicion of something new!  Also learn my way around it before I change anything.  I'd never encountered a board reporting a bios different than printed on it.  I've never messed with manual memory settings or done more overclocking than just a little exploratory and suprisingly successful nudge - if you could point me toward a  good basic explaination of all those settings, I could learn from there.
    Appreciate your input very much.   
    Have learned a lot just reading the threads here for the last few days.  This is the best forum I've ever encountered.  I'll report back - some suggestions in other posts resembling my problem ended with no resolution, and that's a shame because one doesn't know if it worked or not.

  • Using ipod with Vista Home Premium

    Hello,
    This is the first time this grandma has posted to this forum. I have an older Windows XP desktop pc which only has 20G. I decided I wanted to use my ipod on my new laptop which is running Vista Home Premium because it has over 100G and it has more storage so I can now feel freer to download more audiobooks and music. There is a error message on the ipod "current user not administrator". Also have problems with where programs are located on ipod. For example, there are podcasts on the ipod but none show up under "podcasts" on the ipod. Help appreciated. Barb

    I have same problem with my Inspiron 5150, Pentium 4.
    iTunes ***** up most of my system memory. I was uploading one of my CD's and could do nothing else because the CPU was at 100%. This only started happening within the last month or two (note ; recent update) and I even tried reinstalling my OS thinking that would help. First thing I put back on was itunes- problem came right back.
    P.S> What is "iTunes helper.exe" and "iPodservice.exe"?

  • Toshiba Dock or Topbar or whatever it is called on Vista Home Premium Sattelite model P205-S6267

    I've a Toshiba Sattelite P205-S6267 running Vista Home Premium (OEM).
    When I first bought it, there was something similar to the Windows Sidebar but it was at the top of my screen.  I know it's not the actual Vista Sidebar becase it was originally along the top of my screen and my pokeing around indicates Vista Sidebar doesn't do that.  Furthermore, it had all these white icons for assorted Toshiba utilities for managing hardware and configuring stuff.  
    At some point, I must have removed it. I have all the CD's and other materials. How do I restore the Toshiba Topbar or what ever it is called?
