C50 - B satellite - 14 d Win 8.1 for Win XP Downgrade

Hi guys,.

I a trying to downgrade my Toshiba Satellite C50 - B - 14 d of windows 8 for XP.
I can't get with it and really miss using XP!

Can someone please help?

Thank you very much!

What I will say: I wonder why you want to install this old system?

I mean, that Windows XP is not taken in charge more; even by Microsoft!
Also Toshiba does not support this system on this series of satellites C50 - B... so because there is no support of Win XP for this system, you will not find any Win XP drivers for this model of laptop...

This is why this downgrade would be really, really difficult and complicated.

Of course, you can try to install this system on the laptop. To do this, you must
(1) disable secure boot
(2) pass the CSM UEFI
(3) the need to find the SATA driver allowing you to recognize the SATA controller and install Win XP...

I guess point 3) is more difficult to achieve...

    Hi noor21

    If you have similar issues using internal and external keyboard, then I recommend you to run a recovery process that would fix the laptop back to factory settings.

    After this check, if your BIOS is up to date.

    If the keyboard problem will always appear even if you define the laptop back to factory settings, you must contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba because the keyboard failure may be related to hardware problems.

The first starting attempt of the day, it does not start, it is consumed on gets in front of splash screens after the cursor flashing in the top left then hold with a blank screen (not the cursor just a low glow).

    Hello

    The description of your problem is, for me, quite confusing, and I do not understand your problem.
    Can your notebook load and start the preinstalled operating system or not?

    Enter the BIOS and set it to default settings. After that restart your laptop and to describe what is happening exactly.

  • C2Y65AV dv7 Bluetooth question WANT after the victory of 8.1 to Win 7 Downgrade

    My laptop is an ENVYdv7 C2Y65AV

    He came originally with Windows 8.0, and I later upgraded to 8.1.

    I never liked 8.0 or 8.1 so I "had" to Windows 7 Professional. I did my research, realizing that there may be questions. I downloaded the drivers, bought a new drive hard, etc..

    Everything went past better than expected and I'm happy with the "downgrade", except for 1 issue.

    1. I have difficulties to get my Bluetooth to connect completely to one of my devices (headset or headset).
    My WiFi works well, I think the Bluetooth 4.0 is part of the Intel Centrino WiFi card. When connecting to any Bluetooth device, it appears in the Bluetooth devices screen. It will discover and 'connect', but nothing happens when I try to use them. The sound always comes through the laptop speakers.

    I have the Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230 BNHMW came with the laptop. It worked fine with Windows 8.1. All my devices Bluetooth paired easily with the laptop when Windows 8.1 is running.

    I went to the Intel Web site, made sure my driver for the wireless card for Windows 7 is the most recent and correct version. They have a software utility that installs on your laptop, then search and download the last correct version.

    I downloaded all the drivers for this HP downgrade, driver and software help section () of the Internet site. What great resource is this site!

    Suggestions? Advice?
    I appreciate any help!

    Thank you

    P. S.

    One interesting thing about Windows 8.1.

    When I installed Windows 7 Professional, I bought a new hard drive SSD just for that purpose. I had saved my hard drive took a shot with 8.1 Windows on it just in case this downgrade are successful.

    Just for grins, I added it as a second hard disk (later) in the case where I needed to get the missed files.

    When I restarted my laptop, I went into the Manager startup and selected my main drive with Windows 7. It started normally.

    Then the seconds after startup, a message pops up saying that I had to reboot for the changes to take effect. I don't remember making some, but thought that something was updated?

    So I did. I rebooted and Windows 8.1 supports and edit files on my hard drive SSD (disk win 7) which ultimately disabled the Windows 7 boot disk.
    Attempt to start the hard disk Windows 7 has frozen just after the start of Windows 7 screen.

    I pulled the plug on the rebooted Windows 8.1 to Windows 7 hard disk. Before I could however, he had to scan the hard disk for changes and correct. Then Windows 7 booted up normally.

    This Windows 8.1 is of course control. Can you say 'Hal' from the film '2001 A Space Odessay'

    Hello

    The 2230 Intel chip is crap. I suggest to get decent bth less Intel 6235 or 7260AC to get a connection. The 2230 provokes many questions it is better to get rid of and use a correct wifi card.

  • Cannot find drivers for Satellite C50-A-1DV 8.1 Win

    Hello.

    I reinstalled windows 8.1 from Disc I have, but I'm having driver problems, namely find some support pilot on the Toshiba site.

    It seems that my phone is not listed, or I can't find it in the support section for drivers.

    The drivers so that I am looking are the drivers of the motherboard.
    I already tried a pilot site, but my laptop took a good few minutes to turn off after a stop so I doubt than those who were correct. I will try the software intel chipset device and see if it gives me good.

    Rest of the drivers, I can get enough simple through the Manager of devices, but not the chipset drivers and probably usb 3.0 also.

    On a side note, I noticed I don't need to type the key that I wrote using belarc, I guess that it is registered in the BIOS and windows auto detect it correctly?

    Hello

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop comes with Windows preinstalled 8.1 64 bit so what you need to do is to reinstall the original recovery image that contains all the necessary drivers.

    When you say you have installed Win 8.1 from disk, does that mean exactly?
    Did you install your own OS version or the original version of Win8.1 recovery disk created?

    Anyway, al Win8.1 64-bit drivers, you can download at Toshiba download page - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    There you can find all the drivers for your C50-A-1DV Satellite with PSCG6E part number.

  • Satellite C50 - A - the upgrade to win little 8.1 win7

    Hello

    I was wondering, I have the Windows 8.1, upgrade of the media that I had for my Toshiba Satellite C50 - A computer. Upgrade to 8.1 Windows and got the upgrade DVD, came with the laptop. So I do it just insert the DVD, click on Set up, or do I need to go back to factory settings, then insert the DVD and as a blind it student, will need sighted assistance.

    Any help, advice, tips of people made this before. I have a 1 TB USB drive Toshiba external hard, so have saved all that and added a number of things today, but saved the rest of my stuff, docs, College work, emails, my settings for RSS feeds, contacts for outlook 2010, programs, music, TV, movies, bookmarks, etc, so all advice.

    Going to do it tomorrow. make a programming course and the Professor uses windows 8.1, and need to develop windows blinds and windows phone apps.

    Marvin from Adelaide, Australia.

    The exact specification of your model is unknown to me, but I assume that you got your machine with recovery disc Win8.1 so if you want to use Win8.1, you must start your computer with the recovery disc and make clean OS install.

    I don't know if you got your machine with Win7 preinstalled initially. If so create recovery media (DVD or USB) using pre-installed recovery disc creator Toshiba before you start the installation of Win8.1.
    This created recovery media, you can use if you want to have the machine with Win7 again.

  • Impossible to move all the data using BT to Satellite C50-A-19 t with Win 8.1

    Hello

    I have a portable Satellite C50-at-19 t, that came pre-installed with Windows 8.1.

    I cannot transfer files on any of my other Bluetooth devices paired with the laptop, but I can transfer files from laptop to other devices, it seems to work only one way.

    The PC does not display a file download, and the transmitter device says not sent the file. I looked in the Bluetooth settings but find nothing much in there. other devices work properly with each other.

    I hope someone can give me an idea of what I'm doing wrong.

    Thank you. John.

    > I'm unable to transfer files on any of my other Bluetooth devices paired with the laptop, but I can transfer files from laptop to other devices, it seems to work only one way.

    In your case, I recommend to check others like Firewall and antivirus security settings.
    I suggest you to temporary disable the antivirus and firewall and then check the result
    Perhaps BT file transfer is blocked.

  • Black screen on Satellite C50-A-19 t running win 8

    No beeps at startup blue don't clear showing and orange too. Just no black screen moves.

    Fortunately kept my old H.P. old girl like me :)
    If at least can get online to check diagnose information (please in simple terms)

    Thank you very much

    Laptop s hardware seems to be affected.
    But maybe you should try a common solution that would breathe new life into Notepad.

    First unplug the AC adapter and remove the battery.
    Press and hold the power button keep it pressed for about 30-40sec
    Then connect the battery and the AC adapter.
    Now press the power button once more.

    What happens now?
    Could you give some feedback?

  • C50-A0113 satellite does not start in windows

    Hello.

    I have a toshiba satellite laptop C50-A0113 8 64-bit windows running.

    Ive had exactly two years a few days ago I restarted and then when it starts up, it stops at the screen "Toshiba leading innovation" and then he said: scanning and repair drive C, while on this screen it starts the process and then stops at 34%.

    It was two days ago now it just gets stuck on the "screen toshiba innovation leader" and then after a few minutes, it says preparation auto repair.

    Then he leaves the screen and goes to a screen black for a few minutes then flashes the blue screen written "your computer has encountered a problem" then restarts.

    I tried to create a bootable windows disc 8 in order to repair, but it does not start even in the usb port.
    I restart and press f12 to select the media to begin. It checks the media goes to the toshiba screen, then everything goes black for a few minutes until what it restarts.

    Can I please know what is the problem and how can I possibly fix it because the problem is clearly not my hard drive.

    I have removed and put into another laptop and it was fine

    Hello

    If you want to start Notepad using external media (such as a CD or USB flash memory key) you must disable the secure in the BIOS boot option.

    If you want to install Win 7, you must also pass the CSM mode UEFI Boot Mode.

    For me it of not quite clear if you created the recovery media (flash memory stick or disk)

    If you created one in the past, you could use this recovery media to put the laptop back to factory settings.

    In the case where this is not possible, some of the material (perhaps HDD) could be affected.

    Hello

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.
