Cannot install OS on my Satellite L30 - 11 d

I tried for days now to install an OS on hard disk but everytime I get the same message "hard drive not found"

I can't activate my controller SATA in BIOS since this isn't an option.

I created streaming versions slipped with the spliced driver XP using nlite... working on all the machines I have except this one.

The machine originally had windows Vista Home Basic on it... Since then, so I didn't find 700 MB vista home version, that I burned and seemed to work fine until that installation point when he says theres no driver?

Any ideas guys? I'm losing sleep over this

Hello!

It seems that you have integrated a bad diver. As far as I know this laptop you need Intel Storage Manager you can download from the Toshiba site.

In addition, I can recommend this article:

Good luck! :)

  • Cannot install Windows 8 on Satellite L750 - CPU compatibility problem

    Why can I not install Windows 8 Preview of consumption on my Toshiba Satellite L750-22 x?
    I get an error of processor compatibility.

    Intel i3 M380 2.53 GHz

    Hello

    The Internet provides some details on this error message.
    It seems that to install Win 8 CP the CPU must support PAE/NX/SSE2 features

    Never execute Bit ([NX bit | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NX_bit]) allows the marking of memory pages as non-executable.
    Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) is an earlier standard that is supported by Intel and AMD CPU. This is why all processors that support NX would also support SSE2 too.

    Usually, this allows the XD (for Intel processors) or NX (for AMD) in the BIOS should disable this error message.
    But if it is not available in the BIOS, then either the CPU is not supported this feature or the BIOS does not support this option.

    According to the page Intel Ark Intel Core i3 - 380 M supports the Execute Disable Bit feature. So maybe the BIOS does not support this feature
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/50178/Intel-Core-i3-380M-processor-

    It seems that you have to wait for the new BIOS

  • Cannot install recovery image on satellite Pro P300-1EX

    Hello.

    I have never had many problems with a single laptop in my lifetime of work. I'm almost ready to throw this thing out the window. I have a satellite pro p300-1EX.

    I wanted to do an install new os just to make things a bit faster for the customer, it was 8 hours ago.

    First, I installed a Home Windows OEM pre 32B version. Then I saw that the CD would not work.

    So, Okay - I'll bring back factory default:

    (1) there is no link repair starting and pressing F8
    (2) there is no HARD drive untilty when you press 0 - that does nothing
    (3) there is no recovery console, by putting in an OEM version of windows vista
    (4) I try to download recovery disk creator bloody software and get this - it does not work. It creates a shortcut to a file that's not here yet. TRDCLcher.exe, can you, im speechless.

    So now, I have to spend £30 of my own money by obtaining a disc sent to me? I don't think so.

    So, what can I please? It was a horrible experience. Nothing works. The recovery partition, I see is still in tact, it's just like the laptop doesn't recognize it. Instealing the OEM deleted all tools by default, but I can't NOT THE DOWNLOAD.

    Please, please help me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Maybe it sounds stupid now, but this is simply.

    Here's my explanation of how it works:
    Almost 4 or 5 years Toshiba offers laptops without recovery DVD but with recovery image stored on the HARD drive. As much I know about former Satellite/Satellite Pro P300 recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder named HDDRecvery. This model laptop was shipped with Windows Vista.

    As you know original recovery image can be installed n in two ways:
    -You can use the recovery HARD drive installation method - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    -You can use the created recovery DVD disk

    HARD drive recovery facility can be made if the laptop has only factory settings. In this case in advanced startup options (F8), you will have the option to fix my computer. If the notebk has been installed with the version of the OS or any other operating system of this option won't be available more. Because of this Toshiba has preinstalled reminder with the message for owners of laptops create recovery DVDs.

    Your questions:
    > There is no link repair starting and pressing F8
    If this laptop doesn t have to factory settings it will not appear in the advanced startup options
    > There is no HARD drive untilty when you press 0 - that does nothing
    If you have European book this model with zero will not work. It only works with the United States and Austraian mobile.
    > There is no recovery console, by putting in an OEM version of windows vista
    I put t understand it. What happens when you start with the OEM version?
    > I am trying to download bloody recovery disc creator software
    If you have the European model of laptop, it can not be downloaded. This piece of software is included in the recovery image only.

    > So now I have to spend £30 of my own money by obtaining a disc sent to me
    I understand, but at least with the original recovery DVD you can install OS and all necessary things in an hour only.
    > The recovery partition, I see is still in tact, it's just like the laptop doesn't recognize it.
    Yes. Without factory settings you will not have access to these data.

    Follow these steps:
    -start your laptop and press F2 to enter the BIOS settings
    -set the BIOS to default settings and reboot the laptop
    -When the laptop reboots press F12 to get into the boot meny
    -When the boot menu appears on the screen put the original DVD of recovery in ODD
    -Choose the CD/DVD drive on the list and press ENTER
    This will force it's STRANGE to be the first boot device and you should see process on the loading screen. Click next or OK nothing change and wait for the recovery procedure starts.

    Please try it and let me know exactly what is happening.

  • Cannot install webcam Logitech on Satellite

  • Problem installing operating system with Satellite L30 (PSL33E)

    Hi all.

    So I got a laptop from my firiend from set. Now what he told me is it. He plays a game and the laptop froze. He pressed the power button and restarted the laptop. After restarting the laptop it says windows has recovered from a serious error. After that he could log on to his computer. Then he used the toshiba recovery cd, but this only corrected the problem for a short time.

    Now when he gave it to me I started and he tried to load vista it says that there is a missing file: wdsuti.dll and I had an ErrorCode:0x3E7. I looked this error and then I formatted the drive and tried a fresh install of vista.

    Vista installed fine up to the point where it asks to restart the computer once it restarted it could not load again.
    Now, I tried another disc as the XP disc I install XP and then use the vista upgrade disc but the same thing happens.

    At the moment im trying another installation of vista. It has installed vista, but is running very very slow and took forever to install. From his first start, he crashed and came up with this error message:

    Cannot start Windows

    file: windows\system32\config\system

    status: 0xc00000e9

    Now I'm stumped with an im PC very well I can remove the parts and exchange them etc.
    I guess that the hard drive is dying.
    Am wrong me, or would be - this another problem?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    EDIT: Also note that I have reset the BIOS default settings and am now running Windows memory diagnostic tool.

    What is the result after you run the Windows memory diagnostic tool?

  • Cannot install wireless driver for Satellite A40

    A few days ago I had to reinstall the OS windows (XP) on my laptop. Since then, I'm not able to get a WiFi connection. I tried to install the driver on the CD that was in the package, I got when I plug the laptop, but the installation failed. I am able to get internet with a LAN cable, however, the only type of access provided in the College, I screw is wireless, so I really want to make it work again.

    There is no option for a wireless connection when I click on "create a new internet connection". However, through the program "ConfigFree" (included in the installation package) I know that my wireless adapter cannot "see" the wireless network. In addition, when I click on "view available wireless connection" icon of the internet wireless next to the time, it shows nothing.

    Really, I don't know how to run again and would be pleased if someone can help me.

    Kind regards

    I'm a little confused about the description of your problem full of m.
    First of all, it would be very interesting to know if you have used the WLan in the past!
    Did you use WLan on this laptop?

    I searched a little on the net and didn't find any A40 with the installed wireless card!
    Please check under network adapters Device Manager if a wireless network card or an unknown device appears.

    If it s not available under network adapters, then your laptop was not equipped with the LAN card internal minPCI!

  • Cannot install Windows 7 on Satellite P200D-139 - CD/DVD missing drivers

    Hi all.

    Hello this laptop comes with Windows Vista.
    I am trying to install Windows 7, 32-bit for my mother.
    It is not the original Toshiba DVD so I bought Windows 7 for him.

    First I start by using the Windows 7 DVD.
    Then the language selection screen is displayed and selections.

    Then the Install Now + option is chosen.
    Then, the following message appears - this is verbatim:

    + "A required CD/DVD device driver is missing." If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD or USB flash drive, please insert it now. +
    + Note: If the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive you can delete safely for this step. » +

    I can't go beyond that point.
    Installation of Windows Vista is always on the laptop and I can't find any drivers required - driver demand is unfortunately not very precise. I wonder if it's drivers for the hard disk needs?

    I have searched on the internet and can not find drivers that work.

    Thanks in advance for any help :-)

    Hello

    The CD/DVD driver is part of the Microsoft System and also available on the Windows 7 installation disc.
    This is why there is no special driver CD/DVD available.

    I read about this topic in various forums and also on Microsoft support forum and especially this issue appear if the Windows system drive is defective or damaged.

    I put t know where you got this disc, but I recommend you to download an ISO of Windows from the Microsoft server, as shown here:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=73726
    Then, you could create a clean installation of Windows or USB flash memory disk

    The serial key you got with the Windows disk could be used for activation.
