  Hi Paul,.

  No, you can not install the 32-bit version of Windows to the sides of the 64-bit version. However, you can have a configuration dual boot (32-bit on a partition and 64-bit on another). In this case you will need two licenses, a license being dedicated to a facility only.

• I can't install Vista x 64 Bios on Satellite A200

  Months ago that I posted that I have intalled Vista x 64 home premiun on my Satellite A200 and I can't install Vista 64-bit bios.
  But today, after trying to install new Vista 2.50 x 64 Vios and have the same problem using Toshiba Recovery CD.
  I need to install Vista 32 bit and I can Flash the new 2.50 Bios in Vista 32.

  So I think that my CD rom is ok and I think I have not install Vista x 64 Bios because have not all drivers.

  Whats is your opinion?

  Hello

  I found your other thread regarding the update of the BIOS in Vista 64-bit:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/message.jspa?MessageID=123211#123211

  It seems that something was\is with your ROM BIOS module and it was therefore not possible to update the BIOS on the A200.
  You case that neither BIOS 32 bits or 64-bit BIOS update is possible

  So, my recommendation is. Contact the ASP in your country for a control.
  Don t be angry with me, but I don't see other reasons why you are not able to update the BIOS

  Good luck

• How many times we can re install vista

  How many times we can re install vista

  You can reinstall Vista on the same material as many times as you want.

  If your license is an OEM one, then you can not upgrade the motherboard or move the license to another computer.

  If your license is a full retail, you can upgrade your motherboard or move the license to a new computer, as long as it is installed on a single computer at a time.

• I can't install Vista SP2.

  original title: my PC crashed and I had to re - install Windows Vista but now I can not install Vista SP2.  I tried all of the suggestions that I could find, how to install SP2 for Vista?

  As I said, I did research any possible suggestion, including stop my anti-virus program, but still not get SP2 to install for Windows Vista.

  Note: Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not to uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

  1. have you (has) uninstall the pre-installed Norton free version to test AND THEN (b) download/run the Norton removal tool [1] & restart (c) BEFORE you installed AVG Free or any other antivirus application (not to mention SP2)?

  2. when (date about) you have to install Microsoft Security Essentials (I guess) and the computer was fully patched to Windows Update at the time?

  2B. was Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) offered & installed via Windows Update or you intentionally chose to install it?

  3 MSE is auto-update itself about once every 24 hours or it is installed?

  4 can update you MSE manually via the button of UPDATE on the MSE UPDATE tab?

• I bought Windows Vista Home Premium and got a free upgrade to Windows 7. Can I install Vista on a second computer and still be legal?

  I bought Windows Vista Home Premium and got a free upgrade to Windows 7, which I have installed on Computer1.  Can I install Vista on a second computer computer2 and still be legal?

  Is same question with versions of Microsoft office, if I have multiple versions allowed to install an earlier version on a second computer and stay legal?

  No, unfortunately not, when you upgraded to Windows 7 indeed renounce you your right to use Vista. But keep the product key and Vista media where you need to perform a clean installation of Windows 7 again.

  For MS Office (according to license as some allow multiple installations) If this older version is not in use you can install it on this computer second no questioned asked.

• Satellite P300D-12Y can I install Vista 64-bit?

  Hello world
  I'm new here and have my first Toshiba-laptop, just bought a week ago.
  It is this model
  http://de.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/product/satellite-P300D-12Y/1060921/toshibaShop/false/

  It works OK, but Vista 32 is quite a mess ;)

  As I've worked on XP pro or Vista 64-bit on my PC now my question:

  Can I install Vista64 on this book?
  Do I need a special BIOS for the 64 bit - OS?
  The Toshiba download page are no drivers or BIOS for Vista64 corresponding to my model number.

  I tried to update my recent BIOS of 2.6 to 2.8 (included P300D-series) but without success, error message was 'no corresponding version of BIOS', I tried upgrading on windows.

  All useful tips about the BIOS and Vista64-install (and whether I should get the drivers from the manufacturer sites) are appreciated.

  THX in advance

  Of course, you can install the Vista 32 bit on this laptop.
  But the problem is that the 64 bit Vista drivers are not published at this time for this series of laptop.

  So, you have to collect the drivers of your own hands.
  In addition, you should not try to update the BIOS if it has not been created specially for this model of laptop.

  The driver is a bit tricky simply said, there are no Vista drivers published, I found a few singles Vista drivers on some sites of s manufacturer of device but at the moment, there is no drivers for this laptop Toshiba.

  PS: on the site of Toshiba Canada, I found the only drivers for some new laptops Toshiba:

• Qosmio F50: How can I install Vista Business

  Hello!

  I recently bought qosmio f50 and it came with the home edition of vista...

  I need to install Vista professional.
  How can I do?
  I have to format it?
  So how do I install back all the utilities and drivers which it came with?
  I have problems with my laptop if I do this?

  Post edited by: xaralas

  Hello

  The Vista installation is not difficult.
  He just put the Vista disk in the STRANGE and then start from the disc.
  The installation will start automatically.

  But this will format your HARD drive and you will lose your installed Win XP and other files.

  > How can I install back all the utilities and drivers which it came with?
  I guess you have a Toshiba Recovery disk.
  If you want to retrieve the OS installed by Toshiba, then you need to use the Toshiba Recovery for recovery disk.

  PS: what Qosmio F do you have exactly? I ask because 108 F is not known to me

• Re: Satellite U300: can I install Vista Ultimate?

  Hello.

  A few days back, I bought Satellite U300 series but it came with VISTA Home Premium that I don't want.

  Can I install WINDOWS VISTA ULTIMATE on my computer, if yes from where I can download the drivers.
  Is there a specific order I have to follow to install the drivers after installing VISTA ULTIMATE.

  Seniors need help here, please...

  Thank you and best regards
  Khurram Shahzad

  Of course, you can install Vista Ultimate on this laptop.
  All Vista drivers can be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba.

  Ask for the specific installation order?
  Well, I'd start with the common drivers like Chip Set Utility, display driver, etc.
  In addition, I would recommend checking the option details, because there you might find driver and software details.

  By the way; the Intel Robson (SATA driver) package must be included in Vista because this driver is required for the recognition of the HARD drive.

• Satellite A200-1CR: can I install Vista using my Vista DVD installations?

  Hello

  I would like to get some answers to my questions...

  I have the satellite A200-1CR (PSAE0) and I want to install vista on my own... not with the recovery DVD but I have some serious questions...

  (1) may I have problems during the installation... (Drivers SATA, etc.), problems of BIOS or Toshiba has no restrictions?

  (2) what problem if I erase the secret (winre) partition and what is its purpose?

  (3) if I do a clean install with my DVD with my vista... If I want in a future close that I can use the recovery DVDs I got it or not?

  (4) to the drivers section for my laptop for each part has 5,6,7 or 8 drivers for win vista... which is good, or it's all the same?

  (5) in general, what do you propose? Are there reasons why not to do my format? I did a large number of formats in desktop, but never in the notebooks.

  Sorry if you tired with my questions and sometimes my bad English...
  Thank you in advance...

  Why not.

  As to the question;

  (1) possibly the Vista operating system does not recognize the HARD drive during the installation of the OS. In this case you must install storage Intel Matrix (Robson package) Manager first! It of a driver SATA and can be found on the Toshiba or Intel driver page.

  (2) Windows recovery environment (WinRE) is placed on the hidden partition and it of necessary to restore a damaged operating system.
  The Vista operating system automatically creates the hidden partition and Windows re installing the OS.

  (3) Yes, you can use the Toshiba Recovery CD. But it erases the entire HARD drive always.

  (4) take a newer version

  (5) generally I put t see any reasons to get in shape. The preinstalled Vista operating system has been configured and all the tools of Toshiba, drivers and additional software should work very well.
  I don't recommend a new format if the operating system is working well.

  Good bye

• Can I install windows7 64 bit on hp pavalion 2000 2116tu. is it a 64 bit system?

  Thanks in advance

  Anish

  Hi, Anish:

  Depending on the product specifications on the link below, you can install a 64-bit operating system, but I would recommend that you upgrade the memory of at least 4 GB before installing a 64-bit operating system.

  http://support.HP.com/US-en/document/c03354595=

  Your product indicates that you can install up to 8 GB of memory.

  I even think that the laptop can handle 2 x 8 GB of memory.

  Run the Analyzer memory crucial free to confirm how much memory you can upgrade to.
