• Question about changing from Vista to XP on Satellite A200

  Hello

  5 months ago, I bought a laptop Satellite A200 - 1 M 5, but I face some strange and annoying inconsistencies such as blue screen after startup, inconsistencies with several programs or devices, unique discoveries registry keys, problem with microsoft register server, Mp telemetry and other inexplicable things that make you angry. In addition, Vista are so heavy for 'only' 1024 MB of memory.

  For all the foregoing, I thought strongly to change my operating system from Vista to XP clearer and more coherent. However, I have no idea if the machine will cooperate very well with XP. Nothing will work properly? Incompatibility? Someone told me that, perhaps, the case of Toshiba flash cards will not work. But, if so, how can I manipulate for example brightness? Combination of FN will work?

  Thanks in advance for the help

  I think that your machine should work well with Windows XP Home edition. Many people use Windows XP Home edition on the mobile phones of Satellite or Equium A200 new and different. Before you start to do the BIOS update to the version of Windows XP designed home. It must be 5. XX. Check it out!

  For the installation of WXP use CD Windows XP SP2 home edition installations. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com for assistance

  BTW: before you start checking some threads here about installation of WXP A200 laptop. You can find a lot of useful things.

  Bye and good luck!

• Changing from Vista 64 SP1 to XP Pro 32

  Should what drivers I download to complete the change of Vista SP1 64-bit for XP Pro 32. I have a Pavillion S3707 4 GB Ram, HDD 500, Windows Vista 64-bit. The reason for the switch is my old XP shot craps and I just bought this new computer. I'm not all that I need and programs used to use for installation, even if Microsoft says they are Vista compatible 64-bit. I tried all the registry fixes without any positive result. Any help with drivers and other information on how to get my installed programs would be greatly appreciated. .

  Thanks, Jim

• Satellite L30: A few questions about the change from Vista to Win XP

  My satellite L30 has Vista Home Basic preinstalled, but I decided that Vista is still a little slow & buggy and would like to change to WinXP Pro. I have 2 questions-

  1. a change to XP will extend the battery performance? (currently 1 h with no wifi I think it's pretty poor)

  2. I intend to reformat the hard drive for all the hidden partitions will be lost. If I decide to go back to Vista, at a later date I will be able to reinstall using the "upgrade" dvd that came with my computer? I think I'm wrong in saying that this dvd contains a full version of Vista, but I wonder if my serial number still working?

  Thank you

  Hello

  If you bought the L30 with Vista operating system preinstalled, then I presume that you have received also the Toshiba Vista recovery CD.
  The Vista on the recovery CD is already enabled and you don't need to enter keys t.

  Regarding your battery question: well as you know the battery working time depends on the use of the laptop. Performance heavy on the laptop running decreases the life of the battery. It is a fact.

  But you assume the Vista needs of more resources for laptop as the XP and the Vista operating system wastes more energy than other operating systems.
  I think if you install XP on the laptop, you should be able to work with the battery a little longer as with Vista.

• Changing from Vista to Windows 7

  Nice day
  My question is very simple, I'm one of the many dissatisfied customers who stuck with windows Vista. My question is for people who has fooled in buying windows vista, they will have reduction if they purchase Windows 7.  I think it's just that I didn't have the choice when I bought my laptop and I was stuck with Vista.  Microsoft will step up and show the customer loyalty, or should I look at just to buy a MAC?

  Would really like a response on that.

• A few questions after changing from Vista to Win XP on Satellite A135-S4427

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite A135-S4427 days. It comes with Vista, but some applications are not ready yet for this OS. So, I decided to remove it, then I did a new install of Win XP SP2.

  Here come the problems...
  (1) I could not find the driver for the system management Bus controller. There is an explicitly named SMBus available on the support site, but it was not accepted by the system.

  (2) after 2-3 hours of operation, when I use the mouse or the touchpad to open a file, folder, click a button, the system to freeze for a minute, then it works very well for a few minutes, then freezes, etc. Restarting the computer does not solve the problem.

  I can't explain this bad behavior :( I have not checked the security no virus was detected.

  Please, any idea to make my laptop works properly?

  Hello

  Satellite A135-S4427 seems to be a mobile US and therefore, you should check the site Web of Toshiba us for all the XP drivers.

  1.) system Management Bus Controller-> to my knowledge, you need to install the Intel chipset utility to fix this problem.

  (2.) for the most part these strange disruptions appears because of the CPU busy.
  You should check the processes running in the background of the operating system and try to defragment the HARD drive.

• Re: Can I switch from Vista to XP?

  I now have Vista, but I would change it on XP.

  Is this possible?
  If so, how?

  Why would it not possible to change from Vista to XP?
  What do you think?

  I put t know what phone you use, but if you can find all the drivers for it on the Toshiba site there s no problem. In the case you're searching on external Web sites for drivers, such as Intel, Realtek, and far.

  To install XP only, you must boot from the CD and follow the instructions on the screen.
  All that s!

• Change operating system from Vista to Windows XP Home on my Satellite A200

  I want to change my OS from Vista to Windows XP Home on my Satellite A200... once I downloaded the complete drivers compatible with XP I updated my version of BIOS to be compatible, then when I started the formatting procedure I've countered a problem when I want to choose the format of the hard drive... which is "no hard drive drivers were found.

  If anyone can help please :) Thank you.

  Hello

  The problem is that you must install the SATA driver (among others) in the XP operating system!
  You will use the FDD USB external (floppy) drive or you will create a new Win XP CD using the freeware tool called nLite (google for nLite get details).

  In addition, after the installation of the SATA driver you shouldn't t format the HARD drive because it would wipe out the SATA driver and the HARD drive will not be recognized!

  I recently changed to windows 7 from vista. I was wondering if there is a way to recover old photos of the vista operating system... If so can someone help me

  If you did an upgrade and not a clean install, they must remain on your drive. Do a search of *.jpg, *.jpeg and see what you get. If I remember correctly, you will have a folder windows.old that they appear in. You can use Windows Explorer if you want to look in your records in the Windows.Old directory.

  I hope this helps.

My question is how to change the Vista 64 operating system, so I can keep the recovery on my hard drive partition?  Mayby there is some kind of upgrade cd?

  Thank you

  Hello

  32-bit to 64-bit is not an upgrade

  It must be done with a clean installation using a full version ' / Ultimate 64 bit license

  Contact the manufacturer of your computer for more information on getting 64-bit ultimate, which I doubt they will always

• I want to downgrade my Satellite from Vista to XP

  Hi bros and sis...

  I would ask that I want to change my widows FRO from Vista to Xp do you advice me?
  Also when I bought first it was FN icons appear on the top of the show.
  But now they have disappeared.

  What is the solution?

  I'm waiting for your answers

  > I do not understand why Toshiba put a 32 bit OS on a 64 bit system with 4 GB of RAM!
  I don't understand not that too, but also other computer manufacturers that do as well.
  The point is that 32-bit operating systems are highly sought after because of the compatibility with other software and applications from external suppliers.

  Perhaps, this is one of the main reasons why most laptop computers are preinstalled with OS 32-bit.

• Satellite A500 - upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 error

  I'm moving my Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium via the Assistance of Toshiba upgrade so it will automatically download the software and some Toshiba Utilities. At the beginning of the launch, an error message 'this model does not support upgrading to Windows 7' in step 'Download Window 7 List component' and cannot continue. I'm confused because this as the disk to upgrade to Win7 I bought and received earlier this year from Toshiba Web site. I have a Satellite A500 I bought last year. It is not an old model, and I think that it is able to upgrade to Windows 7.

  I managed to do a clean install once a while back but realized things of the Toshiba didn't were there not more then I got it back it back to Vista (but instead of the first 32 bit, I have changed there 64 bit). So now, he's running on a Vista 64-bit.

  I don't know if changing from 32 bit to 64 bit has nothing to do with him or if there is something I need to install before you upgrade... I followed the steps on the Toshiba site to upgrade but stuck at this step. I'm not good with computers so help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

  I created a few interesting, official items of Toshiba directly about Windows 7 update procedure:

• Satellite A200-1NB: Question about downgrade from Vista to XP

  I bought a 1NB A200 and I intend to downgrade from Vista to XP.
  I would like to create a CD of tools and utilities, but do I need to do before the low grade or can I do after?

  Also, I have to change the BIOS for XP before you install on the system or install XP first and then modify the BIOS for XP after installation?

  Thanks for your help.

  *@Brown*

  Hello

  If possible, try to update the BIOS first, and then reinstall the operating system.

  I think you also need download all drivers Toshiba XP before installing XP on this OS. Without the LAN or WLan you will not be able to connect to internet ;)

  Good bye
