Double-boot__removing vista for xp

I have a laptop that came with vista installed. I want to remove vista and install xp, but I get an error message that my CD is corrupt. Someone can help me. Thank you.

Installation of XP instead of Vista:

Come on first, site of the manufacturer of your computer, check to see if your model computer has XP drivers available for it...

If the XP drivers are not available for your model, forget the idea.

If Yes, download and save to a CD or Flash drive.

Then buy a disc XP and license.

Save all your data because it will be lost during the installation of XP.

Then follow the steps below to do a clean install.

Once installed, reload ALL your other programs of original media, or download again.

Reload all drivers and utilities for your motherboard.

  • Official release of the drivers XP and Vista for Satellite Pro P100 - 465 PSPAEE

    When will it be available for XP and Vista for the PSPAEE drivers? Currently there are drivers for the PSPA4E, some of whom work, others do not, no operating system. Yes the laptop is preinstalled with the Vista Upgrade and pilots work, but two of the pilot applications are blocked by Defender (NDSTRay / ConfigFree and VolControl). I couldn't get no option to allow to these (not yet classified MS so they are locked) told me to disable Defender technical support!
    I tried a clean install of my own version of Vista business and had problems of drivers with that as well.

    I would like to run XP until Vista is, shall we say, more effective I would use drivers specifically for her, so time would be very useful.

    I would also like to know why there is a where a finger scanner could go under the 0 on the keypad, and a blocked stop lower PCMCIA port (PCI-E?) when any of these are available as an upgrade option? I missed these upgrade options or is it a case of recycled from another model, they exist? If the latter then it is quite cheap for a new machine :)

    Hello

    We have all the users here can suggest only it seems that Vista and XP drivers are already available for Satellite Pro P100 PSPA4E
    So in my opinion the next drivers for the next series should follow in the near future

    I don t see it differently as to wait

    Of course, you can test different drivers from different series as Sat P100.
    Many laptop models use the same devices and therefore different unique pilots could be compatible

  • Drivers Vista for Qosmio G10-100

    Have acquired a portable G10-100 which is under Vista Premium, and commissioning a new hardware found box appears for the mass storage controller. However, I was unable to find the driver for it. I contacted Toshiba who informed me that they don't support probems Vista on older machines! and an online search does not yield no results. Built in multi card reader is a Texas Instruments PC17x21 dedicated Sockets SD/MMC/MS/MSPRO/SM/XD.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Toshiba Qosmio G10 was delivered only with OS Win XP and not Vista.
    According to the official document of Toshiba drivers Vista for G10 series don t exist and which will not.
    I think that you should check the Web site of the (device) chip manufacturing to a compatible driver or test driver Vista released for an another series i.e Qosmio G30

    Good luck

  • Drivers Vista for Satellite P100-219

    Hello.

    Is it possible to download the Vista drivers for this laptop?
    If not, then when they are available?

    Best regards.

    You can try to find them on the download page of hardware manufacturers.

    When will they be available? The fact is that Vista is not officially launched and probably wait for the official launch of Vista for drivers.

  • How can I transfer files from my old pc sony Vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003

    How can I transfer files from my old sony pc running vista for my laptop new HP 17-j003 Windows 8

    Welcome to the HP, Roodie forum.

    There is an easy way to do it using Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer :

    Transfer files and settings from another PC

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you do not want to transfer files using the easy transfer method, you can manually make the copy.

    1. You can connect the systems on the same network,
    2. Define the folders that contain your data transfer to 'Share' on the network
    3. Map the drive on your new Vista computer system network
    4. Copy the data you want to transfer

    On the Vista Machine:

    • Open a Windows Explorer window,
    • Right click on the folder that contains the data you want to 'share' (transfer)
    • Click Properties > share > share and follow the instructions to allow the folder to be shared on the network

    On the Machine Windows 8:

    • Windows key (opens the start screen) > anywhere type 'computer' >
    • Click on "computer" to open the "Computer" File Explorer window >
    • Click map network drive and follow the instructions to map the drive

    Don't forget: If your account name is different on the Vista computer, you will need to click on "Sign in using different credentials" and then enter the name of the account on the Vista computer AND the password for this account.

    You can do this with the upper or lower level folders folder level - as long as the folder is shared, you should have general access to the data it contains.

    There are cases where you will not end up being "owner" of the data transferred - you will have to perhaps enter and adjust the property for files / folders after they are copied to the computer of Windows 8.

  • Files WMA with Vista for businesses will play is no longer: it's etiquette of drm license yet?

    Hello

    I use Vista for businesses successfully now for nearly 8 years.  I enjoyed tons of WMA files of the CD on this machine in Windows Media Player. Now, many of them will not play and I get the http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/ with Chrome page.  He wants me to install the license with the latest version of Internet Explorer, but I use Chrome, because it is faster and has superior spell.

    Any help would be grateful.  I did see a link on going to msconfig in the start menu and turning off UAC, I did, but alas, to no avail.

    Thank you very much.

    Microsoft does not, you, or anyone using your computer protection against copying, it is not enabled by default.  Maybe someone has used your computer and activated this option.  But there is no way to cancel the security after you encrypted your music (if there was, there was not any point to safety in the first place).

    So the option is to disable the option, and then rip your music again so that it is not protected against copying at all.
