Cannot install windows XP on the Satellite Pro A200-1N2

Jin

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.

  • Cannot install Windows XP Home on Satellite Pro L450D-12 X

    Hi people

    I have been using Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D-12 X. But because he of been running very slow, I decided to put windows xp on it.

    So I put the drive in a two set windows xp and when he gets two the part were I need to press on enter, a blue screen comes on. I checked the laptop and its all ok, I even took the HD set windows xp upwards with her on some pc and it works fine.

    But as soon as I put the HD in my laptop it won t charge up are anything... IF anyone can help me with this, it will be a great help.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to two read this.

    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.

  • Cannot install Windows XP Home on Satellite Pro A300

    Hey guys,.

    I was hoping I could find help on these forums. I hope I posted this in the right place.

    There is, Windows Vista is crazy on one of my laptops, and I wanted to install XP. (No, you can't laugh at me). I have XP Pro SP3 disk.
    Although even the recovery agent that Toshiba has on all of its portable computers computers could not solve these problems, I had. I put the XP Pro Sp3 disk in the CARPET * A DVD-RAM UJ880AS drive, hoping to use the formatting on it, so he let me install XP as Microsoft/Windows made it impossible to return. In any case, the formatting went all well and then just install came with billions of mistakes.

    I currently have a Ubuntu Live CD running on it to make it actually DO something, and its working fine. But I want really bad XP on it.

    I think that the issue could be a DEFECTIVE SECTORS on the HARD disk.

    I need help and input.

    I buy a new HARD drive and hope that installation work? Buy a new laptop?

    Your help is appreciated like you wouldn t believe. This has been driving me crazy for centuries.

    Hello.

    (1) check if your CD has no scratches.
    (2) make sure that the DVD player lens is clean (dust). Otherwise, perform a cleaning operation using the stick of hydrophilic cotton and alcohol (make it very accurate and avoid making any what micro scratches).
    (3) back up all data from all partitions. Then start a new installation of Windows XP. In the settings, delete all your existing partitions (make sure, after that you have ONLY space unpartitioned) and then create new partitions to default size. Format these partitions in NTFS (fast) mode. Finally, install the system on the C partition.

    That's all.

    Good luck to you and keep posting your progress.

    Kind regards

  • Cannot repair Windows 7 on the Satellite Pro C650 18U

    Since getting my new laptop Toshiba in October, I had endless problems. It's going to be big, but I guess that relevant to the cause of the problem.

    My first problem with him has come to uninstall McAfee. I was able to do a full restore (it was new so had nothing to lose but time) and got a tool to get rid of everything that McAfee.

    All very well for a while, using AVG free antivirus. It was December before when AVG does an update that causes Windows 7 crash, usually when you sign off the coast. I was not using the machine a lot like Christmas and it seemed to work ok if I turned off, went in safe mode, normally closed then loaded windows normally. At this point, I knew not that the problem was of moy. But due to start working again, I needed to make it work properly, so I spent some time searching online (on my PC) and discovered the problem of the AVG. He had a so bad I could do nothing even in safe mode. By clicking on any AVG associated icon or file crashed the entire system. I found a fix to keep AVG running by renaming a couple of exe.bak of exe files. It worked and the computer was working normally, but I had to get removed AVG that proved impossible because I still couldn't get everything what key of AVG to do anything at all.

    I installed a free trial of an uninstall program, RevoUninstaller. It took most of the day, but finally it has deleted everything. One of the steps is to run the uninstall program of the selected program where he stopped for hours and the next step in the list of all the remaining files showed thousands of hundreds of other files and registry files, so I guess that the uninstall program does not work at all and revo removed all.

    The next day, the computer went well. I installed avast and everything was going well with one exception - the product preinstalled toshiba update program.

    The day after BSOD. I tried startup repair, you have 20 minutes to a black screen with a blinking cursor, possibly a pointer of big white mouse and nothing else. Tried safe mode, when it is run through the list of files, just to stop for a while and had no further. Dug my disk to repair windows 7, put that in, start from it, has had the same problem with the Startup Repair tool, empty large needle on a black screen.

    So what do I do next? I have the windows XP restore disk came with the laptop. I try to boot from that? If I have TO I could still do an another factory restore but I have some files on there and I'm pretty p off would be constantly having to bother with this machine.

    It was suggested to me on another forum that the problem could be with the machine, such as Windows 7 should not have these problems with the antivirus. It is still under warranty.

    Many thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Yes, you can use the Windows XP disk to install Windows XP on your laptop, but then Windows 7 is removed and t, you can use it, you can expect you reinstall Windows 7.

    Did you create the Toshiba recovery disc to install Windows 7? Using this disk, you can restore Windows 7 to factory settings. This means disk HARD will be deleted and with all the tools and pre-installed Windows 7 driver will be installed automatically.
    Just check your manual for more information.

    But the problem is if Windows doesn't boot you are not able to create this disc
    You can use the recovery disk as described here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    If not and you want to return factory settings you can order a new disc of Windows 7 here:

  • Some devices are not correctly installed on the Satellite Pro A200

    I have the Satellite Pro A200 psae7e. and I also have a problem with the PCI memory controller, Modem device on high definition audio bus, mass storage controller, because they are marked in yellow in the Device Manager.

    My knee works fine... sata works fine, graphic controller & etc. Everything in the natural order. but I don't want the yellow icons in Device Manager.

    How to solve this problem. I installed all the drivers, but there is still that the yellow icons that appear.

    And could someone tell me what is the PCI memory controller? Is that the shared memory?

    PCI memory controller is Intel Turbo Memory, also called chip logic Intel Flash cache
    It s a new technology designed to support the new features of Vista.
    There is no driver for Windows XP because XP doesn t supports the cache feature.

    The component of embedded controller compatible ACPI Microsoft supports the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) AC adapter device objects that the operating system uses to manage the resources of power.
    Seems that you BIOS does not support this!

    Update the BIOS to version XP!

  • Fanspeed went the Satellite Pro A200

    Hallo,

    the fan speed increases after bios update. I'm not the only one, but all others have the same problem or not? The fan runs every 30 seconds of high level, too strong. In addition, I went outside and again, the fan works every 30 seconds. SpeedFan said that two hearts are on 10 C. So why does the fan work? After checking the toshiba power management, I changed battery. But this view has not helped. The fan runs again every 30 seconds, but the fan speed does not detect a fun Temperation. The two nuclei of 30 c to surf and send. And another fact is that I want to use carrots for 2 GHz and not 800 Mhz (utility). Change cooling EIB defragmentation method and the intel utlity says 800 Mhz to 2 GHz! It seems that the method liminized toshiba carrots at 800 Mhz?

    If there is a chance to roll back the bios, please help me. Or if there is a guy from toshiba, so please tell the BIOS programmers! In addition, my olders toshibas allowes to control the speed of the fan by the bios or software (fanspeed), why does'nt the satellite pro A200? The fan is too strong tension and the offset of the Temperation is at bottom.

    Please another you experiences, even, you have no solution for the problem.

    Bye - Daniel

    (installed under Vista Ultimate system, all new packages of windows and toshiba)

  • Install Windows 7 on the Satellite M100

    I have the Satellite M100-JG2 (PSMA0C-JG200E). I would like to install Windows 7. The Toshiba does not list the compatible M100. The Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor points on certain issues, but I don't know how it's easy to overcome them.

    I read on another forum that the touchpad does not work after the upgrade, but this was solved by installing a Synaptics driver. Otherwise, I see people announced the upgrade succeeded with no other info. Can someone tell me if they have been successful or not to undertake this upgrade, all the problems that they led in to and how they have solved their?

    The Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor provides the following information (I remove personal programs):
    All the systems pass (I have only 1 GB of RAM if, so do not know if it is too little, even if it is passed)
    Pass all devices

    Program questions:
    TOSHIBA ConfigFree version 5.90.05 (don't know if I still need this)
    Version 1.39.0.4C of TOSHIBA hardware
    1.39.0.5C TOSHIBA supervisor password version
    TOSHIBA Alps Pointing - device Driver version 6.0.2.186 (is this touchpad)
    Version client and Host Security Platform 104.0.14.2

    Any help or advice would be welcome before I attempt this upgrade.

    Thank you!

    Win 7 Vientiane does not contain Flash cards! You must install separately.

    Thanks in advance.

    > while I am trying to install windows XP on the laptop, its shows no hard drive installed
    You need to install the SATA drivers!
    The laptop supports the SATA controller and the drivers are not part of the Windows operating system.
    The SATA drivers are in the Intel Storage Manager!
    Read some threads here about this theme for more details! There are a lot of threads!

    > Can I get Raid for the laptop?
    No, because the phone doesn't support RAID controller.

  • Cannot install Windows 8 on the replacement hard drive

    I got the replacement from Dell hard drive which he said would come with Windows 8 and pre-installed drivers. Well, I installed the hard drive and he said no. OS can be found. I didn't have a chance to make my own backup discs, but Dell sent a CD Windows 8 recovery media with the laptop and now with the replacement hard drive.

    When you try to install Windows 8 on the new hard drive, I get to the part where it tells me to choose a partition to install Windows 8 on and none of them will not let me. There are 5 to choose from and I don't know what to do to get past this. The largest partition either 5A about 934 GB of space left out of 1 TB, but as I said I can't choose it or one of the other ones for the installation.

    You just have to click on next, in any case, despite the message?  Otherwise:

    Start on the DVD of Windows 8, instead of install now, click repair your computer, Advanced Options, invites ... when it opens, type the following:

    DiskPart
    Select disk 0
    clean

    Then, try to install.

    The above will remove all the data partition and disk, allowing you to do a clean install on an empty drive (these scores are not required, and Windows will create its own partitions (two) he needs to install and run).

  • Problems of the product on the Satellite Pro A200 recovery

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A200. She runs very slowly and sometimes it crashes when I connect.
    Also the homepage was hacked and I tried several anti-spyware and they did not work.

    I have the product recovery disc, but the problem the DVD rom drive stopped working.
    The light is on, but it will not open unless you use the manual unlocking.
    I removed and checked the connections, but it seems okay.

    The CD-ROM/DVD-rom has disappeared from the Device Manager and does not come under the material.
    I tried the system restore, but it won't work.

    Is there anyway that you can use the product recovery software if you start from a USB?

    I tried to restart the computer and choose boot from CD, but it won't give me this option.
    I looked in the bios and only boot options it gives are hard disk, CD rom, land and FDD

    > Is there anyway that you can use the product recovery software if you start from a USB?

    No, this Toshiba recovery disc cannot be copied to USB flash memory and used for installing the OS. I'm afraid that it would work not m.

    But if you have a Microsoft Windows CD, you should be able to create a USB bootable flash stick. In internet, you will find lots of useful instructions step by step how create this bootable USB key.

    But boot from USB flash memory stick must be definitely possible since the BIOS supports bootable devices on:
    Drive floppy USB, HDD, ODD, Network (LAN), USB memory
