Can satellite L500D - I get Vista 64-bit?

I just buy new computer Toshiba Satellite L500D and I installed Vista 64 bit, but then I realized that some of the programs and games work dosent in 64-bit version of windows.

Can I still chance it if I recover this window or if I order Windows 7 (a free, I just pay what they send me) can I get it then? Or I can make clear installation and then chanse on 32-bit or install Windows xp and upgrade to Windows 7?

Hey Buddy

All first if burn you the Toshiba Recovery disk using the Toshiba Recovery disk you can still restore Vista 64 bit any time you want. This disk contains an image of the factory settings and can be restored if you start from the disc.

Your question about the different versions of Windows (upgrade, etc) is quite complicated, but theoretically, you can install what you want. An upgrade to Windows 7 is possible if you are using Vista, update on XP isn t possible. In addition, you can pass only to the same version, which means that Vista 32 bit can only be upgraded to Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit to 64-bit only.

    Hello
    I need to install the 64 bit version of Vista on my laptop Satellite A100PSAARE sn: 17177793 Q that comes with recovery CD OEM Vista Home Premiun (32bits).

    Hello

    The product key on the underside of the laptop is an OEM key. This means it belongs to the preinstalled version of Vista and t can be used with another version that you can buy on the internet or computer stores.

    So if you want another version of Vista you have to buy a copy with the product key for your local computer store, for example.

  • Audio driver does not work on Satellite U400-112 with Vista 64-bit Buss

    Hello

    I installed Win Vista Buss. 64-bit on my Toshiba Satellite U400-112 but the original driver for the Toshiba site does not work properly, honestly does not at all. The only driver that works is a winner. Vista driver but when I plugged in her headphones just got pregnant shape, but there is no sound in headphones.

    Can someone help me, please?

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite U400 with Windows Vista 64 bit also, and I used the driver on the Toshiba site (Conexant 4.36.7.0).
    It works without problems, I can hear sounds with the speakers and headphones.

    Maybe you have an old BIOS. After the installation of Windows Vista, I made an update of the BIOS so try that too.
    The BIOS you can find also on the Toshiba site.

    Vista 32 bit OS will work on a computer that is capable of with Vista 64-bit OS.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    You can install most 32-bit software on a Vista 64-bit operating system, with the notable exception being the anti-virus programs.

    Most of the programs designed for the 32-bit version of Windows works on 64-bit Windows version. The notable exceptions are many antivirus programs.

    Device drivers designed for 32-bit versions of Windows do not work on computers running a 64-bit version of Windows. If you try to install a printer or other device that only has 32-bit drivers available, it won't work correctly on a 64-bit version of Windows

  • Re: Satellite X 200 - 22F - is - can I use BIOS of Vista 64 bit for Windows 7?

    Hello!

    Can I use Vista 64 - bit - 2.50 for my X 200 - 22 Satellite BIOS update? I just installed Windows 7 HOME PREMIUM 64 bit and it works fine.
    Before that, I had XP-32 bit running.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hi tn411,

    I guess that the BIOS of 64 bit Vista would be the best choice for Windows 7 64 bit. The other version of BIOS on the Toshiba site seems to be for 32 bit OS, so you can choose the 64-bit version of Vista.

    If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

  • Can I put a Satellite A300-15 b Vista 64-bit?

    Hello

    I think to buy a satellite A300-15B, which sounds like a great machine for the price, but when I asked at the store if I can run Vista 64-bit, they told me that I can't do.

    What is the point of having 4 GB RAM (8 GB disposable?) then?

    Please can someone confirm if I have the opportunity to opt or not? (Living in the United Kingdom)

    Thank you

    Have you checked page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com drivers download 64-bit Vista and the availability of tools on Toshiba?

    Check if the drivers are available for this model of laptop PSAJ4E.

    > What is the point of having 4 GB RAM
    Good question for Microsoft. ;)

    By the way: is 4 GB maximum RAM capacity for this model of laptop.

  • How can I reinstall the Satellite L300/OVK with Vista 32 bits as being its 64 bit now

    Does anyone know how I can reinstall a L300/OVK NB with Windows Vista 32 bit.
    The problem is that it is 64 bit at the moment and I can't install software on it. I don't have a Windows installation CD.

    I contacted the store that I bought in and they said to press f12 or O when the computer is put in place.

    However, this does not work. Anyone know what I can do to install my software?

    Run the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. There should be an icon on the desktop or in the Start Menu.

    If she creates more than 2 DVD x, then you will have the option of 32-bit or 64-bit when run you recovery.

    To run the recovery from the HARD disk:

    When the laptop is OFF, press and hold the Zero key.
    Turn on the laptop
    Release the zero key when you see the Toshiba Logo.

  • How can I get Vista 64 bit to 32 bit?

    I've upgraded to Windows Vista 64 bit and find that some programs will not run now. I would go back to 32-bit of Windows Vista.

  • Satellite L500D - 11 p & Win7 64 bit

    Hello everyone I just bought the Toshiba Satellite L500D - 11 p Notebook PSLK3E-00N00TGR with a Win Vista pre-installed 32-bit & 64-bit. I want to install my own OS Win7 64 bit. First of all, I hate Vista, then I want to use 4 GB of Ram on this point, so I need WIn7 64 bit OS. But his Support Page of the driver:

    NES http://de.Computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=de&mode=allMachi & action = search & teddProduct = 856 & selShortMod = 892

    There is no Win7 64 bit drivers for L500D - 11 p. Will there be a period of time, or is there another possibility Toshiba itself will correct that emit little, oder pourrais I just use the 64 bit Vista driver for Win7 64 bit OS?

    I don't know why there r Win7 32 bit drivers, but not Win7 64-bit available.

    Specification of the material of this Satellite L500D - 11 p is almost the same with respect to the following model:

    Satellite L500D-144,
    Satellite L500D - 13H,
    Satellite L500D-14W.

    These 3 NBs have preinstalled Win7 64 bit. Can I use instead their Win7 64-bit drivers? As I said that Win7 64 bit OS is preinstalled, similarly, 64-bit drivers but the drivers download page there are also no Win7 64 bit drivers for these 3 NBs. How is this possible, if they have even their all preinstalled and work? I'm a little confused, maybe more than just a little. But if the 64-bit r only preinstalled and working, where did you get em Toshiba or going where I get them and how much better, where will get 64-bit drivers for Win7 for my Toshiba Satellite L500D - 11 p?

    > These 3 NBs have preinstalled Win7 64 bit. Can I use instead their Win7 64-bit drivers?
    Of course you can do!

    You can try all the unique drivers that have been released for other series as well.
    I mean, in the worst case that the pilots would not work, and you wouldn't be able to install it
    What do you have to lose?

    In my opinion you should try it.

  • Re: Satellite L500D - cannot get the optical disc drive to work

    Back again with this problem and this thread began again as it appears the original thread has been 'locked' ~ been awhile so it is aceptable.

    I think that the TS-L633C TSST DVD/CD RW on my system is in fact die slowly, now I can not yet use Toshiba DVD PLAYER to watch DVDs. See http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=204206#204206 for the story.

    Using the windows tool "FixIt" on a blank DVD got all green ticks OK but when I went to play DVDs ~ nothing!

    How the reader '' hunt '' when I put any DVD in it and then fails, suggests that the reader was not not little by little and I must be looking for a new. Shame really, because I haven't used at all, hence the long time between my responses on this forum.

    So OK, where from here.

    Nearest service center is a 5 hour drive, and I will send this laptop for my financial and other stuff done busy resourses is more allow me to simply replace this system and start from scratch.

    I'm ready to buy another drive, but cannot locate any online (new) and I am not aware if there are other brands / types which would be appropriate.

    Toshiba Satellite L500D-PSLKOA-00U009 - TSST TS-L633C DVD/CD RW

    Any ideas anyone?

    To be honest, the situation is strange to me, and I think that you spent too long with all this.

    In my opinion, you have to manage fast. The fist issue is: either defective or not ODD?
    The reasons why it doesn't work with a Toshiba DVD player is not relevant at all. You can test it with VLC media player to see how it works.

    So I recommend you to follow:
    You should not change your preinstalled operating system that you use for work or anything else. Try to get another HARD drive. Swap and install the OS by using recovery disc. Test the functionality of the WEIRD with the settings to be sure that the problem persists or not.

    In the end, if you are willing to trade the player s check Manual of use and you will be find the list of all compatible optical disc readers you can use with your model of laptop.

  • How to get Vista 64 Bit from Toshiba Qosmio F50 - 10K-

    Hello

    A few days ago, I bought Qosmio F50 - 10 K but with Vista Ultimate 32 Bit.
    It does not satisfy me
    Does anyone know how to get Vista Ultimate 64 Bit from Toshiba?

    This version has been developed for the Poland, but in this country there is no office representative or something like that. There are only distributors or shops who import laptops of distributors abroad.

    Hello

    You won't get a Toshiba 64-bit Vista.
    What you can do is to buy the operating system Vista 64 bit full, original and reinstall instead of Vista 32-bit, which is already installed on your laptop.

    I think 64-bit drivers for Toshiba Qosmio F50 Vista can be downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page!

  • How can satellite L500D-11J - I disable the microphone?

    Hello

    I have a similar problem with the microphone. All of a sudden he turned on, resonating with the speakers. When skyping it doesn't work anymore. I have a PRO SATELLITE L500D-11J. What should do?

    The microphone is integrated with the webcam? How can I set the microphone while keeping speakers on?

    Hey,.

    Theoretically the microphone can be disabled in the settings of Windows Volume. That's why you should select the input devices and disable it there all what s! :)

    In addition, the microphone is a part of the webcam and this is why you can update the driver for the webcam. Normally the microphone lights up if you use the webcam.
