• Can satellite A500 - I install Windows 7 64 bit?

  I first bought a Satellite A500 with 4 GB of RAM there are a little over 3 months with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium installed. Initially, I got the original dramas with finding drivers 64-bit etc., then it ran OK for a while. After about 2 & a half months I started having BSOD with error message related to a nvidia .sys file. After a few weeks of this, update the latest drivers etc and a number of unsuccessful attempts to diagnose the problem, it's that occur whenever I used the laptop and up he took the touchpad died as well. The company I bought at gave me a laptop replacement.

  The new system is also a Satellite A500, and although it has a different model number and a CPU faster it is also virtually identical to the one I had already with 4 GB of RAM and graphics card from nvidia at the same address. However, for some reason Windows 7 32 bit has been pre-installed. I don't know why the company has not installed the 64-bit. A call to the dept tech with the issue gave rise to the answer "better for you", which means that 32-bit is better for me.

  My laptop is capable of 64-bit. I know that when you run the 32-bit version, it uses only up to 3.2 GB of installed RAM (my system says 2.99 GB is usable - assume the rest is allocated to graphics?) but I read a post where the poster says it is running 32 bit Win 7 was actually faster than the 64-bit version though even he was not using all the RAM.

  * Can someone tell me if I'm running the 32-bit version of Windows 7 rather than the 64-bit version better? *

  * If I'm better with 64-bit, can I switch to 64-bit or what I need to do a complete reinstall? * No installation disk provided. Assume that the installation files are on the hidden partition.

  Although I have not had a BSOD with this new laptop, I had a couple of instances where the system froze temporarily with the messge "your display driver has stopped working" followed by a recovery. Is this a thing Toshiba, nvidia or Windows 7? I have read quite a few other posts of people with laptops similar to mine who have had the same mistakes of Toshiba/nvidia but no resolution. * If it's going to be a problem with the graphics card, I'm better off the coast with 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7? *

  Any advice would be appreciated muchly.

  Hello

  I a500 and run Windows Ultimate 64-bit, it's best to run 64-bit to 32-bit windows. You must copy of 64-bit Windows to install, it is not big problem to get it. All the drivers you can find on the Toshiba driver page:

• I bought a HP with Windows 10 Tower preloaded. Is there place where I can get help with installing Windows 7?

  * Original title: Windows 10 disappointment

  Recently, I bought a HP with Windows 10 Tower preloaded.  I gave up 10.  I would like to return to the Windows 7 desktop.  If I buy or buy this software, I guess I have to 'wipe' 10 of my machine?  Or I would just download 7 top?   What I have found online are instructions for people who have updated to 10 and want to revert to an earlier version of windows.  In my case, I never had an earlier version on the machine I have now.  Is there place where I can get help with installing Windows 7?  Online, local dealer?  Thank you.

  If I were you, I call HP and tell them that you do not want this computer with Win10.  They are very likely still sells machines with Win7 for businesses, because most companies do not affect the Win10 with a 10 foot barge pole.

  Dell is selling them for sure.  I've been helping my clients by computers Dell Win7 for a very long time now and just had one on my desk a week ago.  Look at the range of Dell Vostro of computers.

  The trick is to approach Dell as a businessman, and not as a normal consumer.

• I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did. These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

  My computer came with Windows 7.  Recently, my hard drive failed.  I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did.  These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

  YES!

  I just did mine 01/01/2016, installed a new WD 500 GB HDD black on my laptop ASUS K52F, took my DVD 4 restore disks and restored to Win 7 Home Premium, more 10 Windows, which is sitting on my old HDD in the trash. I'll stick with my Original OEM OS and never improve to WIN 10 times.

  NOTE: The only time the restore disks do not work is when you replace your motherboard.

  Mehdi FranklinPackya,

  If an operating system from a disk GPT, whether it is installed or not, the extended BIOS Firmware Interface (UEFI) is not only recommended his need.

  The following links may be of some use:

• Satellite L300D-12 t - Windows XP WLAN need driver

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-12 t PSLC0E. I had update the hard drive, installed Windows XP and now I have problems with some drivers. Let's start with the WLAN driver. No download on the Toshiba site, realtek drivers Don t work.

  Someone an idea?
  Thank you very much!

  Christoph

  > No download on the Toshiba site
  According to specification for laptop, your laptop computer has Realtek Wireless LAN Adapter 8187 B and it is certainly available on Toshiba WLAN Portal under http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads

  > realtek drivers Don t work
  Does that mean exactly? You have some problems to install or wireless network card correctly (listed in the Device Manager) but you cannot use it for the WIFI connection?

• Can satellite L300D - I change the video card?

  Hello world

  I am not satisfied with the performance of my video card. I have a Satellite L300D, with 2 Ati Radeon X 1250.
  Can someone tell me if it is possible to remove these video cards, or remove 1 and put another one in it? Or simply add one and what is a good video card for this laptop?

  There is no video card in this model, its fixed on the motherboard. In addition, there is no standard on laptops video card slot, so you would not be able to update anyway. That's because laptops are compact and their cooling system must be custom designed following the power of the VGA chip. The laptop could overheat or cause other problems power if a more powerful graphics card was installed.

  So your only option is to sell the laptop and buy a model designed for the game, such as the P300 or P500, or maybe an A300 model with decent dedicated nVidia or ATI graphics.

• Can satellite M30x - I use Windows 7?

  Does anyone has installed Windows 7 on a M30X? People keep telling me that Windows 7 gives a new breath to the older laptops, but it seems difficult to find the correct drivers in the absence of support from Toshiba.

  I'd be interested to hear about the experience of the people on the M30X or similar, the two performance they get with Windows 7 and also advice on the pitfalls to avoid when installing!

  I have a M30X-129 with extended memory to 1.5 GB, otherwise as originally configured, running XP. I intend to do a clean install of Windows 7.

  Hey mate,

  Theoretically, you can install Windows 7 but you've already written it might be a little difficult to find any Windows 7 drivers for this good old classic. In addition, I doubt that Windows 7 run faster than Windows XP. More rapid than Vista but XP is still the best OS for old computers.

  In your case, I'd be happy with preinstalled OS to Toshiba. Everything works with these parameters, and so you can have fun with your laptop. :)

• Satellite A500 - cannot install Windows 7

  Hello, I have a toshiba A500 and I am trying to install windows 7 but I can't go to step one because it does not recognize the dvd drive:
  "A required CD/DVD driver missing player.
  I have read a few forums, and if I could find the drivers, I think I'd be able to fix it with a pen.

  So where can I find the? I went to download drivers toshiba but I don't see any por driver for Vista...

  Hello!

  I m a bit confused at the moment because you try to install Windows 7, but then you have written on that Windows 7 doesn't t detect the CD/DVD drive.

  I mean, normally, you must boot from the Windows 7 installation disc and follow the instructions on the screen.
  The CD/DVD driver is part of the operating system and can t be updated or something else.

  Maybe the Windows 7 disc isn t working properly so can you install another OS, such as Toshiba Recovery disk?

  Good bye

• Re: Need of Satellite L500-13W - installing Windows XP - details

  I have a laptop Toshiba L500 13W originally shipped with windows Vista.
  I have already installed Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit, but I don't like Vista or 7, becausa of this new interface of the taskbar.
  So I thought to install windows xp on it.

  Toshiba offers drivers, but I had problems to install xp on a Vista desktop computer designed.
  I had to make a special CD with SATA drivers, which toshiba does not provide for this laptop.

  So I wanted to know if somone to people that you have already installed xp on this laptop model.
  If you had problems, what drivers did you use, and if the original disc to factory worked.

  Thank you for reading,

  Please reply!

  Hi mate

  First of all, you can install Windows XP on this laptop without the installation of the SATA drivers too.
  In the BIOS, you will need to set the compatible SATA controller mode (instead of AHCI).
  This will simulate an IDE HDD controller and it does not all SATA drivers.

  Of course, it s advisable to install SATA drivers due to the performance of the HARD drive but Win XP runs in compatible mode too.

  The laptop L500-13W belongs to the series of PSLJ3E.
  You should choose this series to download driver.

  You can download the drivers from the European driver Toshiba page.

  Intel Storage Manager contains the SATA drivers

• Can Tecra A6 - I install Windows 7?

  Does anyone know if the Tecra A6 (A60E) is OK with the new Windows 7 RC?

  Shaun

  Why you should not be able to install Windows 7 on Tecra A6?

  So I think that you can install Windows 7 but I n t understand why so many people want to install a beta version of the operating system on its laptops. I mean a beta version of the operating system can cause problems and not run stable under Vista or XP. In addition the new Windows doesn t have features they are important and everybody needs this.

  For example, I have two laptops from Toshiba. With Vista and XP, but I prefer the laptop with XP. I think it s the operating system more stable I have ever had.

• How can I download and install Windows XP SP3?

  I currently have Windows XP, Service Pack 2 on my IBM ThinkPad.

  I tried to follow the instructions on the Microsoft Web site, which is to install through Windows Update. When I go to the Windows Update page and click on the "Custom" button, it says "the website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. The options provided below may help you solve the problem. "[Error number: 0 x 80244019]

  I suspect it is because I am currently running Windows XP SP2; I'm not allowed to update because I have not yet updated.

  The second 'Advanced' option is to install 'manually '. This takes me to a page titled "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers. The title is a bit disheartening, but I was going to get anyway, but when I sailed to the bottom of the page, I read in the description: "DO NOT click DOWNLOAD if YOU ARE UPDATING a SINGLE computer. I can't just ignore a message written in all caps and bold!

  In any case, could someone tell me why

  1. The updated release of Windows XP SP3 is, in terms of Microsoft, "more appropriate", and
  2. If it is not appropriate for my single installation on my ThinkPad user, so what do I do?

  Thank you
