Can satellite M40x-183 - I switch from XP to Windows 7?

Is it possible to switch from Windows XP to Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite M40X-183?

Hello

Theoretically, you can do everything, but you know how old your laptop is? In my opinion Windows 7 isn't the first choice for good old classic. It of designed for Windows XP and you should be satisfied with this OS.

In my opinion, Windows XP is the best choice for old books, that they are not designed for Windows 7.

  • Satellite M40X-183: Impossible to install photoshop CS2

    I have a Satellite M40X-183. I tried to install Photoshop CS2 and it installs everything but the help files and I wait for hours complete the installation, but it is not. Before it took me a long time to set up but once I updated my toshiba software he showed some changes and installed more quickly but still stuck using the part files. It seems to install but it does not actually install anything this either fight the help files and I install Photoshop CS2 on my desktop from the cd, it works very well.

    I have similar problems with some other proggrams running.
    Is there anyway I can install photoshop? has anyone else had the same problem I have?

    Hello

    It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You will be very happy if someone has exactly the same problem and can give you some explanations. I have installed and tested a lot of different software on my Tecra and up to now, everything works fine.

    Problem is that Toshiba is not responsible for the non-Toshiba software and if no one can help you try to contact Adobe support.

    Sorry, but I don't see any other solution.

    Good luck!

  • Can satellite L40-100 - I switch to Win7 or Win8?

    Hello

    I am the owner of a laptop runs on Windows Vista 32-bit.
    I noticed that it was possible to support Toshiba Web site to download the drivers for Windows 7
    so I guess my computer is compatible.

    However, my PC system settings are compatible with Windows 8 according to the microsoft Web site.
    But the fact is that the Toshiba Web site provides drivers for windows 8 on my computer.

    So my question is: knowing what I said before is it possible to move safely from Vista to Windows 8 without having problems after installation?

    Thanks for help.

    Satellite L40 is older machine and certainly not supported for Win8 but Toshiba offers drivers, tools and utilities for Win7.
    In my opinion you should use Win7 32 bit about this old piece of hardware. In the past, I have successfully improved several old machines Vista Win7 and all run well and very stable.

    I think that Win8 isn't the best option for your Satellite L40.

  • Switching from XP to Windows 7 on my Satellite M30

    Hello...

    I have a Satellite M30 with XP and you want to clean install Windows 7.
    I think that this is possible, but I noticed that Toshiba does not support my model (M30) for his DVD to upgrade to windows 7 that wants to say I can't do?
    Has anyone successfully clean not unhooked W7 from XP on satellite M30 laptop?

    Hi mate

    Toshiba does not support Win 7 on M30 t but it is not meant that you can not install this OS on the M30 Sat.

    I installed Windows 7 on my laptop that is not Win 7 supported and everything is OK!
    Of course it took some time until that all drivers have been collected, but this isn't a big pain

    You can check this Toshiba HowTo doc that should help you to find the right driver for Win 7

    Hello!

    As far as I know the laptop is equipped with IDE HDD's. This means that there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits and you can use up to 128 GB s HDD.
    If the upgrade to a 120 GB model should work fine.

    You can buy a disk of each production, but I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.
