• Can satellite U500 - I go back to XP?

  I have a new I500 Satellite with Windows 7 installed. He frustrated me beyond belief as a control feakes. Can I simply start from an old XP legal disc and expect a continuity of operations?

  I expect a reformat but there are other questions or problems?

  Hi Anthony,.

  You can install all of the OS you want. ;)

  I checked the Toshiba page and it seems that U500 supports Windows XP. I created all the drivers & tools so you can install it after installing XP on a disk from Microsoft:

• Satellite M40-244 - cannot start from CD after driver change

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M40-244 and the original DVD drive is faulty. So I changed the drive with one that is exactly the same (same brand, same date of manufacture).

  Under Windows, the new disk is recognized and works perfectly. However, when I try to boot from the CD, I am not able to do. I successfully changed the boot sequence in the bios, I tried all possible combinations without success.

  One thing I remember is that when I tried to boot from the faulty driver, I got the message 'Not bootable CD' (the tested CD is bootable and tested on other computers)

  Any idea anyone, I desperately need to install a new OS. :-(

  Hello

  I doubt that you can boot from CD t if your drive works properly in Windows...
  You can try another disc of starting, for example the Toshiba recovery disc or the disc from Microsoft, please?

  Alternative try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

  Good luck! :)

• Can satellite U500-10N - I install Windows XP?

  Hello

  I bought the Satellite U500-10N and it has Vista, but I want to install XP, is it possible?

  My plan is to backup all my files and then put the installation CD of XP, delete all files in Vista and record fresh new copy of XP. And then install all the drivers of nessesery to my laptop to functional normal? Is this possible? :\ I have
  fear that if I install XP some features on my laptop will not work.

  I am in need of help, please if someone knows something I will be grateful

  Hello

  Theoretically, you can install Windows XP, why not? ;)

  But I put t understand why you want to use such an old operating system. I mean the Satellite U500 is really fast enough for Vista and Windows 7 is present in a few days. You should be happy with your pre-installed Vista version that should work well.

  The point is that Toshiba doesn't offer drivers U500 and XP so you must collect all the drivers yourself on the Internet that takes a lot of time. In addition, I think that some special functions, like the FN keys will not work because it you can get a driver from Toshiba.

  It s your choice what you do but I'd wait for Windows 7 If you don't like Vista Satellite U500 n should also support Windows 7.

• Satellite U500-186 - slow start

  Hi all

  Satellite U500-186 my wife is so slow to boot and load anything. It works on Win 7 Home and is standard as purchased spec.

  It takes about 2-3 minutes just to boot and load of Live Mail.

  Run AVG anti virus and not much else. Used only for surfing and electronic mail.

  Also loses WiFi if he goes to sleep I get, but when you start again deactivate and reactivate the WiFI adapter to connect again.

  Any ideas anyone?

  Thank you

  Maybe it sounds silly, but it's nothing unusual for laptops with the factory settings. Startup list is quite long, and if you have installed additional things like Skype or any other thing that starts with Windows startup time will be even longer.

  What you need to do is to disable all unnecessary applications in the startup option. This should be the first step. Do you know how to do this?

• Satellite U500 - may not wake from sleep

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite U500 laptop win7 64 bit and my system may not wake from sleep mode.
  "Standby mode" when I press the power button or any key of the keypad power led lights up but the screen stays black and the system is unusable.

  Any help?

  Have you noticed this problem in the first moments after upgrade to Win7?
  I assume that you made a mistake with Vista?

  Have you noticed the same behavior when you use hibernation mode?

• Satellite P35-S609 - boot possible from the SD card?

  Hello.

  I did some autour research to see if it is possible to start a P35-S609 laptop computer and the SD card. Obviously, I have not found anything useful yet...
  I'm just boot Damn Small Linux from a 1 GB SD card. I started with success from a USB key, but they are so slow on this laptop... so I'll try a SD card instead.

  I've updated my worm 1.40 BIOS to see if there was no support for this, but nothing helped.

  Anyone know if it is even possible to start an SD card on this laptop? Or am I wasting my time?

  See you soon.

  Rob.

  Hello

  I never heard that it is possible to boot from an SD card so I doubt that. The BIOS doesn't support and an update of the BIOS will not add this feature.

  Sorry, but if you want to boot from a Linux system, you must use the USB, CD/DVD disc or HARD drive.

• How can I get my photos transferred from the SD card in Windows 7?

  Useally on Vista, just a window with options, no options are given in my Windows 7

  I installed Windows Live Essentials, go to Gallery by clicking on the transfer does not work either, it not works for click transfer in Picasa-photogram

  All I want is given automatic options when I put the SD card in (Yes, I have a built-in card reader, this is a brand new laptop)

  You can not.  Windows 7 does not have autoplay for SD cards, only the devices USB (CD or DVD).  So if you buy an SD USB adapter (a little money on the internet) and then put your SD card in that and then put it into a USB port, windows 7 should start autoplay (if enabled).  But nothing do you will autoplay start for an SD card.  Anyone who says otherwise are you does not run windows 7 or not put the SD card into the slot sd on their computer.

• 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 1130-z28: cannot start from portable player

  My Teac dw 224th Player Toshiba Satellite 1130-z28 does not work. I have the problem I tried to replace it with 3 different types of cd rom drive and none worked.

  The led light, but I can't boot from them and windows doesn'n even recognize them. Is it possible my laptop works with the same kind of player?

  The same drive is always better, because on this way, you will be sure that it will work properly 100%. In my opinion you have some compatibility issue because each car can not be used with any laptop. Unfortunately there are no public list with compatible readers but this info you can get from Toshiba service partner in your country.

• Satellite C70D - how to start from the DVD

  Hello
  You just bought a Satellite C70D with Win 8.1. Everything works (as much as I know to knowledge), except start it from the DVD. I disabled the Secure Boot in the bios and changed the boot order on a DVD first, then USB and HARD drive. The DVD player starts, but then it jumps on the HARD disk and Windows is started. First time I tried there was a message like "DVD boot not supported" or something like that.
  The DVD is bootable, so it's not the problem.
  I want to install Linux Mint alongside Windows.
  Someone has already solved this problem?

  Update: changing of UEFI CMS in the Advanced BIOS tab at the start of the DVD, but Windows no longer starts. Is it possible to boot from DVDE and still be able to start Windows as well?

• Satellite C660 don't start from the HDDs or recovery

  Hi people,

  Post this question for my neighbor, as there is now no internet access as mobile does not not - Satellite C660 running Win7.

  In the event of power he gets the Toshiba screen then a white screen with the cursor at the top left flashing.

  Tried to boot from the DVD of Win7 (you press F12 for boot & changed options on DVD), can hear the reader tries to access the dvd but then get the message 'impossible '. DVD of Win7 works in my laptop and desktop pc computer.

  Any ideas.

  Thank you

  Nigel

  > When the power he gets the Toshiba screen then a white screen with the cursor at the top left flashing.

  Possibly the HARD drive died.
  That try you to the power of the unit and press F2
  Now you should be able to access the BIOS.

  If the disk HARD isn t appearing on the first page of the BIOS, this means that HDD isn't recognised by the BIOS, which means that the HARD drive is faulty.

• Satellite M40 does not start from hard disk - read error

  "I push the button - briefly see the In Touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA screen - then ' + a disk read error occurred press Ctrl Alt Del to restart +".

  I control alt delete brings me briefly on the screen TOSHIBA where I can choose either F2 or F12.

  Do I need a startup disk and where can I get one in order to boot from the CD ROM?
  Do I try to get into the Satellite M40 product Recovery DVD-ROM - this concern for me as the hard drive will be reformatted and all data will be lost.

  I'm stuck please help!

  Hello!

  If you enter the product recovery disc, Windows will be relocated and will be erasing all data on the HARD drive.

  I think that your HARD drive is damaged. You can check this with the Drive Fitness Test. Here you can download:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
  Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.
  On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

  By the way: you can save the data on the HARD drive, when you put it in a box external HARD disk. Then you can save the data on another PC, if the HARD drive is ok and have no errors.

  Good bye

• Satellite A105 does not start from the CD Rom

  Today WinXP fall & I decide to reinstall.
  I change in the Bios to boot to the cd-rom first.
  But she continue to start the hard drive first. I don't know what to do, because I don't Win & I can't boot from any device except the HARD drive.

  Any body can help me? Can be extracted bios battary motherboard...

  Hello

  If you want to boot from the CD Rom, then a bootable Windows CD must be inserted in the first place.

  Immediately after starting the laptop, press the F12 key.
  This should allow the start on-screen menu then you could choose the ODD (CD/DVD drive) and the laptop should boot from the drive.

  Good bye

• Satellite U500 will not start

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Toshiba U500 after I installed additional 2GBs of ram that the laptop does not start.
  He died immediately after, after I press the turn on button.

  The leds blink normally.
  I already tried to remove the new RAM and tested new and old memorys in different locations.

  I also tried to reset the bios by removing the cmos battery, but it seems that you cannot be disconnected.

  Any help would be appreciated.
  Sorry for my bad English and thanks in advance.

  Hi mate

  Notepad starts correctly using the old modules shipped with the laptop?

  In my opinion, you bought RAM that is not fully compatible with the laptop or BIOS.
  In this case, you should test the device with other modules of RAM of the manufacture of some users here in the forum reported problems with the essential modules I use Kingston modules and my notebook starts fine
