XP wont install - ntdlr.dll missing on Satellite P300-133

We bought the Satelitte P300 with Vista preinstalled. It worked fine except of some major programs for equipment configuration in our company.
Therefore we tried to install XP Professional on the primary partition which was formated before that. At the blue screen where XP installs its files (after creating partition and formating it) on the end at 99% it says "ntdlr.dll missing".
We first tought it has something to do with SATA compatibility mode which we configured in BIOS because of the missing AHCI driver on XP CD. Then we made a backup CD with nLite with installed SATA drivers and run on AHCI mode.
The same problem at the same point. I dind't try with another copy of XP but I know that this one (one month old scratch free original CD) works fine because I installed it on another laptop before.
The only thing thats od odd that the latters of the partitions are mixed up. The partition where Vista was before is now D, this is also the drive where we tried to install XP, C is no the drive with all backups from the previous system and F it seams to be the installation files for Vista.
Please any suggestions, its very urgent
We need this computer next week.
Greetings Peter

I solved the problem. Had to delete all three existing partitions,. But i had an full partition of backups from Vista, so I got na external drive first
for backup. I don't know why but after new partition was created everything worked fine. Thanks anyway. Peter

  • Firmware for Pioneer DVRKD08A DVD writter - Satellite P300-133

    Got my new Satellite P300-133.
    It has a Pioneer DVRKD08A DVD writer.
    While checking for a firmware update I found that the recommendation is for a different brand - TS-L632H.
    This firmware is obviously to Pioneer - so where can be found the firmware applicable to Pioneer?

    Indeed it seems strange, but in a relative short period of time I already experienced two instances which made me look for such update:
    - A burned DVD-R got an additional session - uncontrolled and unrequired, just by using it a few times - REALLY it's a first in my 10 years of using CD / DVD writers.
    Shortly after, the DVD-R become unusable and I had to burn another one.
    - While using the Toshiba (alias Pioneer) burner, and compared to an identical session using an external SONY DVD writer, at same speed,
    on same DVD RW, took 20% less time on the SONY.
    If there is no such firmware update then I will have to find a careful way to handle the DVD writer till I will reach a conclusion about its serviceability.

  • Some question about Toshiab reocvery disk for Satellite P300-133

    Hello guys ,
    I got some questions about unpleasant recovery surprises :
    *1)* I just made recovery DVD using Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator and it initially asked for 2 DVDs - but when the first one was done it didn`t require a second blanc DVD . Is it possible all system files of Windows Vista to be written on 1 DVD ?
    *2)* Could I reinstall Windows Vista using the HDD Recovery option ( by pressing F8 ) without using recovery DVD ?
    *3)* Which HDD partitions`ll be formatted ( just system C: or both C: and E: ) using HDD recovery ?
    *4)* What is recovery DVD - Image of the hard drives or Vista installation files ?
    Its pretty bad idea not to include OS on DVD when I have paid for it.
    Thanks for all the problems to Toshiba :(

    1. I think the recovery disk creator means 2 CDs. I have a Portege M700 with Windows Vista and one DVD too. I recovered it and after this I have a clean Vista installation with all drivers and tools from Toshiba. Nothing is missing.
    2. Yes, you can reinstall Vista using the HDD Recovery option when you press F8 at startup. You dont need the recovery DVD but you should create one when your HDD get some errors or something else. If you need a new Recovery DVD, you have pay for one.
    3. The complete HDD and partitions will be formatted, so backup your data first on a DVD, external HDD, USB stick or something else.
    After the reinstallation you have the factory settings.
    4. The recovery DVD is an image of the HDD about the factory settings. If you make a recovery, there are all drivers and tools already installed. Of course on the disk are the installations files of Vista, but you can only use this DVD on your Satellite P300. The disk can not be used on an other Satellite or on a PC.
    When you have more questions, have a look in the user manual. There are a many in formations about the recovery. Its in chapter 3.

  • I'cant turn on/off led light on Satellite P300-133

    Hi
    I'cant turn on/off led light on TOSHIBA logo, touchpad light bar and multimedia keys (maybe - after upgrading
    TOSHIBA Assist, i'm not sure when).
    My laptop TOSHIBA P300-133 PSPC4E-01C00LPL

    Think you will have to check BIOS settings. Look for an option called Illumination LED and enable it.
    If it is already, then you will have to install all needed drivers and tools from Toshiba download page, but this feature should be enabled by default. Have you reinstalled your system or downgraded to XP?

    Hi
    I doubt there is something wrong with your notebook.
    Is the notebook connected to LAN?
    If yes then the enabled Wake up on LAN option could be the reason why the notebook powers on itself
    So access the BIOS and disable this option;
    Furthermore I recommend disabling this in device manger -> LAN properties -> Advanced tab.
    Last but not least you should check if some Scheduled Tasks are not set which could power up the notebook as well

  • Cannot boot the Satellite P300-1FN - nothing happens

    Hi all
    I recently re-installed windows 7 on my Satellite P300-1FN and after some minor glitches it was running fine.
    I stalled some drivers and updates then it prompted me to restart.
    I turned it off and left it while I had lunch then tried to boot it and nothing happened.
    I mean nothing, not even the light for mains power comes on. I put the battery in which I know has at least half a charge and nothing.
    Changed the fuse again nothing. What is this about?
    It's completely dead.
    Any help appreciated.
    G

    >I mean nothing, not even the light for mains power comes on.
    Sounds not good man
    Sounds like CPU or motherboard issue because no LEDs are on.
    But try this;
    Disconnect Ac adaptor, remove the battery, wait some time (2-4 hours) and connect both parts again.
    Check if you could power up the unit.
    If this would not be possible then I would recommend contacting an professional ASP technician
    Sorry but this is everything what I can suggest

  • TS5376 iTunes wont install.  It says " The program can't start because MediaAccessibility.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."  I have uninstalled iTunes 5 times and reinstalled it, and nothing has worked.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Satellite Pro L630 - NTDLR is missing

    Hi
    Have a Satellite L630 which I installed WinXP (compatibility mode) and eventually installed CheckPoint Full Disk Encryption (FDE) 7.3 HFA1. On reboot, it now comes up with an error "NTDLR is missing". Before installing FDE, it was fine.
    This had been completed on the Satellite U400, A10 and other models and all have taken on FDE in the same method/process fine.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Mohsin.ikram,
    I never heard about this FDE program but if this happened directly after the installation, it seems to be a compatibility issue of FDE tool and has nothing to do with Toshiba.
    Sounds like that it has muddled up the registry
    Can you boot the computer in safe mode?
    If not you have to reinstall Windows I think

  • Trying to install itunes but keep getting windows error126 message and libicuin.dll missing

    trying to install itunes but keep getting windows error 126 message and libicuin.dll missing have reinstalled numerous times and keep getting same messages.

    Are you saving the installer first and then installing, or are you running the installer directly from Apple's website? Also save first.
    If you're saving first and still having issues, try and use Microsoft's Cleanup Utility and then reinstall Quicktime/iTunes:

    Make sure it's a new and fresh download from:

    If not mentioned in the articles, make a new user account in Windows and see if iTunes opens. That will tell you if there's something funky in your main account (if the new user works), or if you have a system-wide issue.
