  At first, I must say that your laptop is designed for Win7 and maybe you should continue to use Win7. Problem is that laptop with the factory settings is quite slow but it can be changed. What you need is to optimize Win7 preinstalled. Check out this forum and you will find many threads with good description and detailed what we can do about it.

  According to specification for laptop, your laptop comes with WIN7 32 BIT PROFESSIONAL & XP DVD.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 - 1N2 PSAE3E and I don't want Vista on my laptop. I downgraded the bios to V5.30 but still cannot install windows xp and there is still no optin for SATA in the bios.

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Did you install the SATA drivers first?
  You need this driver to recognize the HARD drive!

  You must download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager. You should find it on the page of the Toshiba driver or the Intel Web site.

  You must perform the installation of an external USB FDD drive using the F6 key during the installation of Win XP.

  Can someone help me with this?

  Thank you...

  Hello

  First you need to download xp drivers: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

There are guides in different languages, so you won't have a problem to create a. Don't forget it will have to include "Storage drivers", without them, Setup does not recognize the hard drive.
  Third install XP :)

  But be aware, you may encounter some problems, as audio doesn't work do not (updated Windows XP specific need or Service pack 3), some Fn keys not working do not, some unrecognized hardware and so on... You really have to patient when installing XP on new laptops. So good luck

  (Tip: download all readers and store it because it is quite possible that the LAN/WAN connection will not work without a driver)

• How to install the recovery image on Satellite Pro A300?

  I have a Satellite Pro A300 and I need factory reset. I learned from my teacher of computers there is a unknown virus on this subject. Apparently, it has been downloaded when I downloaded Malware bites. I got the laptop free of Set - BC because I muscle Handi-trophy and get tired of writing.

  My teacher told me that I need to Factory Reset, but when I got the laptop, she had everything installed on, (kurzwell, Chrome, etc.) so I don't have the disc to factory reset. In addition, the virus has disabled everything that has anything to do with the internet, (Chrome, for example, Firefox, Outlook, malware bites, etc.).

  Y at - it all means I have factory reset the laptop without the need of the disc.
  Any suggestions will help.

  Thank you

• Cannot install Windows 2000 on my Satellite 1800-514

  I am trying to install windows on my Satellite 1800-514. but when Setup tries to copy files to the hard drive I have some errors on some files are not copied correctly (it says it can't find them, I checked well and they are on the cd).

  is not always, but often the same files. jump results in an unnecessary installation (cannot start). It is the first time ever I am trying to format and reinstall windows on this laptop. I tried gentoo (linux) for a few days and it seems to work very well (except it's me mistakes sometimes when starting from cd)

  so far I have tried:
  -Another cd (all seem to give me the same problem, they worked on all the others I've used them on front of the pc...)
  -windows XP pro cd, gave me an error of not being able to load a file (looks like the installation of 2000?)
  -have you memtest86 to check memory, he finds no errors, also I tried to install with just 1 of my 2-bands memory, that has not helped either. so I don't think that memory is the problem.
  -do you have a chkdsk /R from the recovery console to check the hard disk for errors, no have been found...

  I'm naïve, what to do/try then?

  Hello

  Reset you HARD drive after using the Linux operating system? If please do it properly and then try to install Windows using the recovery CD.

  If the error again please contact the Service partner. In my opinion there must be a missing file.

  Hello

  Before using Windows XP Home edition please check Toshiba support page and make good BIOS update. As far as I know Toshiba offers WXP BIOS version. If I remember well he must be version 5.20 or something similar.
