Can I install Windows 7 on Satellite M50D-A-10W?

My question is simple:
Can I install Windows 7 on Toshiba Satellite M50D-A-10W?
I would stick to my Windows XP but I wanted to upgrade the operating system, and Windows 8 seems kind of funny to me.
Thanks in advance!

*@nerix*

Visit the page of the driver Toshiba UE and the section download M50D-A Satellite.
You will find Windows 7 drivers

By the way: you need the AHCI driver to get recognized HARD drive
Here's the direct link for the driver:

  • How can I install Windows XP on Satellite L40 - 17R?

    I tried to install windows XP on my new L40 - 17R.
    I get a msg says that I don't have a HARD drive.

    I enter the WOOD so I can find a setting for SATA HDD to turn it off as I do in my old ASUS.
    But I have not found anything to the HARD drive in the BIOS.

    So can any body please help me how can I do to install windows XP?

    I will be grateful

    You do not need to disable anything in the BIOS. Simply install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager and the operating system will recognize the HARD drive.
    You are going to install the SATA (Storage Manager) driver for the external USB floppy drive or you will use nLite software to build an own XP CD and include the SATA driver in the new XP.

  • Can I install Windows 7 on Satellite M70-129?

    Hello guys

    I wonder if the M70 satellite would be able to run windows 7
    Is there a driver will be published by Toshiba for this, or what is history
    Thanks in advance

    P.S. I am trying windows 7, it's so soft on my machine

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    > I wonder if the M70 satellite would be able to run windows 7
    Why do not you can install all the operating systems that are available, but the question is whether the pilots of Windows 7 will be available for M70.
    Currently, you can find some Vista drivers for the M70 series and my knowledge, many Vista drivers are compatible with Win 7.

    Install the drivers from Vista to Windows 7 is so worth a try

  • Can I install Windows XP on Satellite A300-1EG

    What the installation of Windows XP Home on Satellite A300-1EG?

    What sort of change shoul I install before?

    What the difference betweem 32-bit and 64-bit? because it is a 32-bit Vista?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Of course, you can install XP on this laptop
    I put t see no reason why it shouldn't t function.

    Satellite A300-1EG belongs to the PSAG4E.
    Choose this series in the European driver Toshiba page and you will find the correct drivers.

    Please note that you must install the SATA AHCI driver first.
    I think this doc Toshiba should be useful:

    [How to integrate a SATA AHCI driver into a Windows XP installation CD | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB85017Z0000R01.htm]

    Also it you asked is what is the difference between the 32-bit OS and 64 bit OS.
    Well, there is a big difference but I n t want to show all
    An important fact is that drivers don't function on 64 bit OS 32 bit.

    For more information between the 32-bit and 64-bit OS recommends asking Google ;)

  • I can't install Windows XP on Satellite A205-s5831

    Hello
    I bought a new Satellite A205-s5831 laptop.
    I want to downgrade Vista to XP but I can't.
    I've been on it for 7 to 8 hours, but I couldn't do anything.

    The thing is, I can't find RAID drivers for my laptop. So I can copy it to my USB floppy.
    I downloaded the 32-bit Intel Matrix Storage Manager floppy Configuration utility for my GL960 chipset.
    I copied the files on my floppy drive, but even that did not help.

    Then, someone at - it an idea?

    THX

    The key is definitely the Intel Matrix Storage Manager.
    And you don t have no need driver RAID but SATA drivers!
    The SATA drivers are part of the Intel Matrix Storage nursery and they will work for sure!

    I noticed that sometimes drivers diskette advantage 3rd don t work as it should, and that's why you should try to create a new XP CD using the freeware tool called nLite.

    The nLite can help you to integrate the SATA driver into Windows XP and to create a new XP CD.

    PS: SP2 is important and must be also installed on the XP CD

  • Can I install Windows 7 on Satellite click Mini L9W - B and use the touch screen?

    Is it possible to install Win 7 32 bit on a satellite click and it will always work to use the screen in the form of tablets?
    I'll buy this one for my dental practice and the intraoral cam maintains that Win 7 32 bit.

    Are you sure that it will not work with Windows 7? Usually there are problems with the software XP and Windows 7/8, but if it works with Windows 7 there is a good chance that it will work with Windows 8. If the software is the issue that you may be able to run the program in compatibility mode Windows 7.

  • Can I install Windows XP on Satellite Pro A200GE-1F9?

    Hello.

    I bought the laptop with pre-installed Vista OS two weeks ago. I would like to remove Vista and install XP but I can not simply do. XP does not see my hard drive and I have no idea how to solve this problem. I have tried to download Intel 31244 PCI - X to Serial ATA Controller and burned with XP SP2 using the nLite software but to no avail. I don't really know what I'm doing wrong. Maybe it's not the right driver?

    Can you please help?

    You used the wrong driver!
    You must use the * Intel Matrix Storage Manager * instead of the Intel 31244 PCI - X to Serial ATA Controller driver!

  • Can I install Windows XP on a Satellite A300D - 14 p

    Can I install Windows XP on a Satellite A300D - 14 p?

    .. .thx for any info and/or messages...

    Hello

    Just to clarify something:

    -If you want to install Windows XP Home edition, but do not change the BIOS settings (leave it in AHCI mode) at the beginning of the procedure of facilities you must load a SATA driver by pressing F6. That's only way to install Windows XP Home edition with success
    -You can install WXP without driver SATA, but you must change the compatibility settings. Everything works fine, but if you change the settings on back ACHI you get BSOD every time when you try to start Windows XP Home edition

    If you want to install the SATA driver please install WXP if you use SATA starts the driver before installing Windows XP Home edition.

  • Can I install Windows 7 on a Satellite C855-1WR?

    Can I install Windows 7 on this computer?
    If so, how to do this, please?

    I have very little technical knowledge, so easy answers please.
    I would be eternally grateful for any help.

    Thank you very much
    Polly

    Of course you can do it.
    You can install Win 7 If you want to.
    First, go to the BIOS (press F2 during boot)
    In the BIOS disable secure boot with UEFI MSC mode.
    Save the changes and now you could boot from Win 7 disc and could launch the installation.

    But just a note: you read the operating instructions and to create the recovery disk before installing what anyone on the laptop. The recovery disc helps you return to Win 8 in case you want to use again!

    Hello

    Maybe you have an old version of your Windows XP operating system in the Microsoft Windows CD.
    I guess you are not able to install the OS, because some updates and SP are missing on the CD.
    You should try to include service packs of MS, and then install the operating system.

    PS: I put t understand why you n t use the recovery CD. The installation is very simple and al Tosh drivers are pre-installed. OK, it s a Home version but there aren't huge differences of Pro

  • Install Windows 8 on Satellite P300

    As usual rushed in and installed Windows 8 on satellite P300. What error - slow, loss of functionality. How to get back to Vista was preinstalled or is there a way I can fix it to run windows 8.
    Processor Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU [email protected] 2.4 GHz, 4.00 (2.99 usable) GB RAM 32-bit system, x 64-based processor.

    Satellite P300 is plu laptop comes with Vista, but also supported for Win7. Unfortunately, it is not supported for Win8 so, in my opinion, there is no sense to install Win8 on it.

    Win7 works perfectly on this machine so if possible use Win7 on it. in case you want to use original Vista, you must install recovery using recovery DVD image. This way only to s to have factory settings once again.

    The question is: do you have the recovery disk?

  • How to install Windows XP on Satellite A300-146?

    Hi all

    I need to know how can I install Windows XP on to my Toshiba Satellite A300-146 since I have windows vista with Arabic and this very bad.
    I heard in the laptop we have a SATA hard drive and the problems of British Colombia, who has not read the material.

    Also, I want to know how I can change vista from Arabic to English interface?

    How can configure LAN?

    Just a question;
    Did you go through this forum and simple threads on this topic before you posted this new topic?

    There is a lot of discussion on the installation of Win XP on laptops with SATA controller!
    The procedure is always the same on most portable models!

    You have 2 options; fade you assign compatible in the BIOS SATA mode and would not need to install the SATA drivers or you let the SATA AHCI mode and would include the SATA drivers using an external floppy drive you would have built a new disk Win XP using nLite software.

    PS: SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager!
