  Installing a version commercial (street copy) of Windows XP on a Toshiba Vista laptop.

  Step 1: Prepare the BIOS
  -Go to section Support/Drivers on the Toshiba site and look for your model of Toshiba
  -If your phone has a separate version of BIOS for XP and Vista, download the BIOS XP and run it in Windows.
  -If you cannot start Windows, you can update the BIOS after installing XP.

  Step 2: Enable SATA Compatibility Mode in the BIOS
  -If installing XP cannot detect SATA drive, enable SATA Compatibility Mode in BIOS if this option is available and install XP.

  Step 3: Install XP using a floppy with the SATA drivers
  -If SATA compatibility mode is not available, you must use the SATA drivers diskette during installation of XP. Follow these steps:

  (1) Download driver Windows XP SATA F6 on the site of Toshiba Support/downloads.
  If a single SATA/AHCI F6 driver is unavailable, download and extract the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver for XP in a temporary folder.
  The Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver package must contain some files under the folder "F6flpy". For example: C:\temp\Intel Matrix Storage Manager\F6flpy\ICH8M_32bit
  Choose the right folder. For example: ICH8M_32bit for a Chipset of Intel ICH8 during installation of Windows XP 32-bit.

  (2) copy these files (iastor.inf, etc.) on a blank diskette. The files must reside in the root directory of the floppy disk.
  For example: A:\iastor.inf, A:\iaahci.inf, etc...

  (3) connect a Toshiba USB floppy drive to the Toshiba laptop. (some non - Toshiba USB Floppy Drives may not work correctly during the installation of XP)

  (4) (4) demarrer start from the Windows XP CD, start the installation and make sure that your floppy with the drivers is inserted into the floppy USB drive.

  (5) for the XP installation invites you to press F6 to install a storage driver, immediately press F6.

  For example: ICH7M Intel(r) 82801GBM SATA AHCI Controller, Intel(r) ICH8M 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller

  (7) keep the attached floppy drive and floppy disk inserted XP has not completed its installation.
  Do not partition or format the hard drive during the installation of XP. The diskette SATA drivers are copied and stored on the hard drive during the installation of XP.

• Re-install (clean install) Windows Vista Home Premium with no installation disc

  I have a laptop that is running Windows Vista. I would like to wipe the drive and reinstall Vista. The computer came preloaded with Vista and did not include the operating system installation diskettes. How would I be able to get the Vista installation diskettes? My computer is an Acer Aspire 5100. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit (SP2).

  Hello

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact Acer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a fee if they are still available.

  http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  With an Acer, it's "left Alt + F10 at startup".

  "How do I restore my computer using the eRecovery Management program outside of Windows?

  http://Acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/2631

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  See programs > Acer > then their eRecovery software stars for them.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• XPS 420 - HARD drive failed, performing a clean install of Vista on the new HARD drive.

  Hey everybody,

  My on my XPS 420 HARD drive failed and I'm trying to reinstall Vista using the disc that came with my machine back when I bought it.

  I bought a new WD10EZEXAZ (1 TB Serial ATA HDD), he rose in the same dwelling as my old HDD (ST3750630AS * Barracuda 7200.11*). I start the PC and goto Setup, it recognizes the HARD drive in the blue menu.

  Then I boot with the CD of Vista that came with my system. I proceed as indicated through the following url:

  Clean install of Vista

  After its copied files, expanded the files, installed features, updates installed... it goes to "Complete Installation" and throws an error message: "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

  I tried a few things I've seen posted on the internet, including trying to run msoobe.exe via command line. When I did, it allows me to Setup user... but finally I get sent to this message of error or another telling me I have to reinstall Windows.

  I read else where some hard disks may not compatible with the Dell disk provides with my OEM machine. If this is the case, can someone advise? I really didn't want to spend $100 one another on a Windows 7 disc, but I feel like this may be my only option... but even in this case, I'm not so sure this will work or the other.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated,

  Tony

  UPDATE *.
  Did some more research, I discovered my new drive HARD is an advanced HDD format... not sure if it has nothing to do with my problems (by www.wdc.com/advformat Vista should not need to perform the work before the OS being installed), but thought I would mention it.

  Thanks again for any help.

  ****************

  Seems that I found the solution to my problem.

  Problem has been fixed by going into the BIOS and change the Mode of Port SATA to IDE/native/AHCI native. After that, the installation worked without any problems. Seems that Windows Setup did not like the port mode is set to RAID.

  Just thought I would post back everybody incase has had the same problem.

Thank you plantingrichard

  Hello plantingrichard, first of all, it would be useless to worry about Firmware updates, because data for these Firmware updates are stored in the devices that the firmware has been installed for.

  You may be able to restore the system with the feature of restoration of HP Recovery from the hard drive to the system startup and the F - 11 key when the HP Logo screen. Just as it was when shipped, it would put all HP applications on the system.

  You can then use the Vista DVD disk and perform an inplace of Windows Vista SP1 upgrade.

  If you don't want all HP applications, you can perform a new installation of Vista.

  You may be able to locate the Vista SP2, but I suggest the Windows Update site and download and install all updates including Vista SP2.

  If you have a DVD of Vista SP2, you can use it to upgrade or new installation. The Vista SP2 would have included in the DVD of Vista SP2 SP1 updates.

  As you suggest, it will take some time to complete, but you'd probably have a more stable system using this approach.

• Did a clean install of Vista - cannot depend on an advocate, I am missing the updates?

  I did a clean install of Vista and thought that I did it correctly... but

  1. I can not turn on Windows Defender. It seems to hang and then I get the 0x800705b4 error message and that the delay expired.

  2. While diagnosing the original problem that finally forced me to do a clean install, PA bear MS MVP asked if I had a few specific updates. For example,.

  (a) KB2719177 [or KB2699988], KB2705219, KB2712808 & KB2731847;

  (b) KB2698365, KB2691442, KB2655992 & KB2719985 or maybe KB2721691;

  (c) KB2685939 and possibly KB2686833.

  (d) KB2658846, KB2659,262, KB2660649, KB2676,562, KB2688338, KB2690533 & KB2695962;

  (e) KB2644615, KB2393802 and especially KB971029.

  Those listed above, I have no

  (a) - KB2719177 [or KB2699988]

  (b) - KB2721691

  (d) -962 KB2695

  If I need to have these, how can I get them? I clicked check for updates and installed the updates until this process went more updated.

  Thanks in advance,

  -YT2252

  You are welcome.

  It was a fluke that I know where you are up with that in the previous question, I answered.

  MSE is the reason; It disables the Defender on the goal.

  Here are all the facts about it.

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/protect/Forum/MSE-protect_start/Windows-Defender-and-Microsoft-Security-Essentials/5309cb8d-02e1-40E8-974f-0dcedb9ab9fd

  I suggested msconfig and Autoruns, as defender is how Microsoft points you, change Vista startup programs.

  One day, you can stop a program starting at start-up That's why I've included these two links for you as no longer, you can use Defender to do.

  What about updates that you think are missing, it would depend on what you have reinstalled as to what you need. You have not found a message that it is an installation failed for them; you jump a list-type PA Bear for you.

  I would say that those particular updates you think you are missing, you may repost in the Windows Update Forum and go to the Attn: PA bear.

• Need to do a clean install of Vista - have several issues

  PA bear MS MVP suggested I do a clean install of Vista. I need a hand-holding.

  The first questions are about the instructions contained in this site:

  HOW to do a clean install of Vista: see the "to install Windows by performing a clean install" (or "reinstall Windows Vista") http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista article

  ISSUES;

  1. the site says have my Windows installation disc (CD or DVD). I don't have the installation disc, but I made the recovery discs. Can I use them instead?

  2. it is also said to disable all antivirus software before you install Windows. I have installed Microsoft Security Essentials. How can I disable it?

  3. to the question "where do you want to install Windows?" choose which partition?

  Thank you in advance,

  YT2252

  Hello.

  1. you can use the recovery disks you did to reinstall Vista. It's what they are for.

  To reinstall Vista using recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  2 as you do a new installation the hard disk will be wiped clean of the everyting: files, MSE, everything.

  Therefore, there is not need to disable the MSE.

  3. the recovery disks must select the disc / Partition and install Vista updates.

  If not. Select the c: / partition.

  After that start the DVD vista sytem shows the error 'windows couldn't start error Oxc0000001.

  It is not a DVD - RW SATA is?

  If you need Intel drivers Matrix to exploit your readers to drive HARD and DVD - RW, DVD - RW SATA won't work properly (owners of Intel motherboard you lucky guys don't have this problem). Need to install drivers of matrix for the DVD - RW being recognized (the egg before the chicken scenerio), hence the need for an IDE DVD - RW.

  Second, make sure that the BIOS can identify your DVD player correctly. If shut down you the computer and it stops, stops and restarts when you restart the computer again, the BIOS has not yet saved the change of equipment.

  Yes, you can reinstall clean 32 bit vista

  you need to get the sony vista recovery disc

  or use your recovery partition

  It depends on how you install 64-bit whether if the recovery partition is left untouched or not

  You can also reinstall the 32-bit version of this way

  borrow a microsoft dvd vista

  Make sure that you borrow correct 32-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  ask also sony how to make this recovery partition recovery disks now before you go ahead and install the 64-bit vista

  then you have reinstall disks for 32-bit vista
