Change Vista 32 bit to 64 bit on Satellite A500 - 14Q

Please let me know if I could upgrade my Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit) operating system to Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit).
I originally set up the laptop to 32-bit and it has a RAM of 4 GB, I need to know if I could upgrade to 64-bit so that I could upgrade to Windows 7.

You can not upgrade. What you need is clean installation of Vista 64-bit.

    Well, I am interested in editing 64-bit Vista on my Ideapad then is it somehow I can call Lenovo and let them send me a disc because I know that Microsoft will replace 32bits to 64bits those if you call them and pay them a small fee for shipping and handling.

  • Package of added value and Windows Vista 64-bit on Satellite P200

    Hello, recently I changed Windows version of 32-bit to 64-bit. Everything works perfectly except PPV.

    When I try to install it, it produces an error message that says:

    ID_ERR_NOTINSTALLTVALZ_MESSAGE

    I found in some old discussions that I should update my bios, so I downloaded most recent bios, and when I tried to update, the pop-up message that I already have this version.

    I did some research and I found some drivers for the 64-bit version - [link to driver | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 152 & selProduct = 746 & selSho rtMod = null & language = 13 & selOS = 27 & selType = all & yearup load = & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = al lMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguage = 13 & type = all & page = 1 & ID = 61866 & DISO = 27 & driverLanguage = 13]

    What is your laptop model number? Have you chosen the right Toshiba VAP for the right notebook series?

    If you have chosen the correct drivers (for the right notebook series) then try to copy the extracted files in the folder of Toshiba Value Package added to programs-> Toshiba-> Toshiba Value added Package.

    Then try to run the ini file as described on the page of the European driver Toshiba.

  • Drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit on Satellite L300-01:00

    When can I get the drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit? Or I have to intall drivers 32-bit on my 64 bit Vista operating system?

    Please links ;)

    Hello!

    What Satellite model do you have?

    You cannot install the 32-bit drivers, you need 64-bit. I think 64-bit is not available for a laptop Satellite L but you can search on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    In addition, you can also search on external Web sites for 64-bit drivers.
    For example:
    www.Intel.com
    www.Realtek.com

  • Vista 64 bit on Satellite Pro L40

    I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit on my Satellite pro L40 and I downloaded all the necessary drivers for this OS, but I can't use the FN keys and volume on my keyboard.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to why they won't work, I had Vista Home Basic on the machine before and they worked very well.

    The FN and the other keys work fine it's just the sound that does not work.

    Hello

    I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and there are not many Vista 64-bit drivers for this unit L40. Your FN buttons don t work because you didn t install the driver necessary or tool that controls this feature.

    I found a tool called Hotkey Utility, which was published in the Vista 32 bit driver section.
    You can try to install it on your Vista 64 bit version, but to be honest I m nit sure if it will work
    If she will not run, then you must use Vista 64-bit without the functionality of the FN button.

  • Headphone plugin does not work usign Vista 64 bit on Satellite P300 - 1 CD

    As the sound of my computer becomes boring for the people around me, I tend to use a headset.

    After formatting my system and Vista64 installation, everything seemed to work fine, except display drivers I had to manually install, other drivers seem OK.

    Audio in the work also. But if I have the headset plugin, nothing happens.

    The sound must be in the helmet, but it is still on the speakers. I googled the problem - no luck, I tried drivers 64-bit conexant - no luck.

    Help, please.

    Hello Nejc

    Sorry, but you didn't write what model of laptop you have exactly.
    Your model of laptop is supported for Vista 64 bit?

    Are you using the correct port on your laptop? Make sure you use the right one. In my view, that it must be the first on the right side.

  • Impossible to install ATI X 1200 drivers under Vista 64-bit on Satellite series

    Please, someone help me
    I'm trying to install the X 1200 ATI drivers on my vista 64-bit and nothing. I go to ati.amd.com and download
    the latest ati x 1200 for vista 64 drivers and install it, after installation, a reboot of the machine and nothing.

    Vista indicates just in the graph "standard vga card."

    I hope that someone help me

    Thank you

    Guimenez

    Hello

    I Don t know why install the won´t drivers. You may need to install manually in the Device Manager (I mean, go to the device, and then on the device - in your case the vga controller - and you must go to the "driver update", then simply follow the installer for installation).

    What I really suggest, is to go to these sites and download the drivers from there, because they have been modified to run on mobile systems:

    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    http://www.OmegaDrivers.NET/

    It would be better because the normal pilots are not intended to run on portable computers.

    Please give some information about your situation

    Satellite A500 - 15 M PSAM0E-00M00PEN

    I have the disc update Toshiba Windows 7 family premium 32-bit and 64-bit
    I have upgraded from Vista operating system preinstalled
    I chose the 32-bit option.

    I choose 64-bit with the same disk?

    If yes how?

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop came with VISTA 32/64 Bit HOME PREMIUM system (DOUBLE).
    So, you can use Vista 32 bit or 64 bit

    Just to clarify this: you used Vista 32 bit in the past and updated the Vista 32 bit to Win 7 32 bit. Right?

    Well, if you want to use Win 7 64 bit, you can upgrade to Vista 64-bit for Win 7 64 bit, or you must be a new install of Win 7 64 bit using a floppy Microsoft Win 7 64 bit.

  • Satellite A500D - FN key does not - need tool for Vista 64-bit

    Hi experts,

    I would like to ask for help on the problem of my laptop.
    The FN key is not working now. I tried to restart the Flash cards, but nothing happens.
    I read on a few discussions that I must download the VAP and drivers section flashing utility.

    That is, that there is no option for vista 64 on the list. I have the European backup installation discs (CD 7 or 9?) but I do not intend to reinstall new OS.
    I can not activate the button for the antenna, because it requires the combination FN + F8.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It seems that there are only some a lot of drivers for Vista 64 bit for Satellite A500D not published on the page of the European driver Toshiba
    This is why I would recommend checking the VAP (value added package) and card Support Flash Utility released for a series of Satellite A500.

    In fact, utility Support Flash Cards for Vista 64-bit is a 1.63.0.3C v
    http://Support1.toshiba-tro.de/Tedd-files2/0/FcSU-20090903093947.zip

  • Can satellite A350-13D - I install Vista 64-bit?

    Hello
    (sorry, I can't speak English very well, sorry if I write to you with its imperfections)

    3 days ago, I bought a Toshiba Satellite A350-13D. It has 4 GB of RAM, but Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit is installed. The computer can use only 3 GB.

    I can't install Vista Home Premium 64-Bit to use all of the RAM (4 GB)? Where can I download the driver for my computer?

    Thanks for your help :)
    Good day

    Hello!

    Of course, you can install Windows Vista 64 bit, why not? What do you think?

    On the Toshiba site I can find all the drivers for Vista 64 bit on Satellite A350 so it should all work properly with Vista 64. Check yourself:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    But note there are two different BIOS versions One available for 32-bit and one for 64-bit. After installation of Vista 64-bit, you must refresh the BIOS too.

  • Satellite A100-599: need drivers Vista 64 bit

    I m from Kosovo.
    I installed Vista 64 bit on Satellite A100-599 but I can t find drivers for Vista 64 bit
    Can someone help me...?

    thnx

    Hello

    Unfortunately the 64 bit Vista drivers are not available for this series of Satellite A100 PSAAR.

    Last chance would be installing some drivers unique from other series of laptops that are equipped with the same features.

    Try the driver Vista 64-bit of the other series and maybe some unique drivers will run.

  • Question about Satellite L40 and Vista 32 bit

    Hey all, I have the following problem.
    I have Satellite L40 series 2 PC and tried to install vista ultimate 32 bit, and they freeze only on the process of "complete installation."
    I read in some other forums and found it is not only my problem. I tried with 64 bit ultimate, it's all OK. It may be, the main problem is that it is not possible to install VISTA 32 bit.
    I only ultimate now, so my question is if anyone knows or installed to another type of Vista 32 bit on these series?

    Thanks before

    As far as I know that all new models of Toshiba laptops come with Vista 32 bit. Satellite L40 is offered in three different models, and each one also comes with 32-bit operating system. If you have the recovery DVDs with your laptop is Vista 32 - bit OS. I assume it must be the Home Premium version.

    I don't have a model L, but my model works well on Vista Ultimate.
