• Satellite U205-s5057: Vista SP1 auto update?

  On my Satellite U205-S5057 with Vista, I have the "automatic updates" turned on.
  However he has never downloaded and upgraded to SP1.

  I understand that it should not so until some driver software has been updated because there have been problems with SP1 unles blocking all drivers are up to date.
  How can I find and I need to update the drivers?

  Thank you rly

  Hello

  > But it never downloaded and upgraded to SP1.
  Perhaps you have simply not noticed that SP1 is installed?

  You can check if SP1 is installed on your portable computer by following these steps:

  (1) access control panel
  (2) select the system

  Here, you should see your Vista version and a notice if a SP1 is already installed.
  If it was not installed, choose the option Windows updates. You should find it on the left.

  On the other hand, you could install SP1 manually. First you must download SP1 from the Microsoft page. After the download is complete, you can perform the update.

  This might take a few minutes, but be patience. It is s ;)

  Hello!

  Downgrade from Vista to XP isn't very difficult and it should be possible that you can do yourself.

  You need at least one drive in Microsoft Windows XP with SP2. Boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. But you need the SATA drivers, the computer can recognize the HARD drive. For drivers, you need Intel Storage Manager, which can be downloaded on the site of Toshiba and this is workaround step by step how to do this:

  If you have installed XP, you must install all the drivers and tools for this. All what you need you can find on the Toshiba site:

  Hello

  I used the search option and found many threads on the downgrade from Vista to XP on Satellite P200 PSPB0E

  All Toshiba drivers are published on the European driver Toshiba page.
  Of course, you won't find additional software and programs like WinDVD, etc. insofar as these software are only a part of the Toshiba recovery image and as I guess are not to free them.

  An important note; you need to install XP drivers as mentioned in the installation instructions txt file. This doc is also found on the Toshiba driver page!

  Then you should not get any trouble of installation.

  Best regards and happy new year 2008 :D

• Satellite U400 - Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hello guys,.

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite U400/03 s with a pre-installed version of Vista business & do not like. It came with a recovery disk for Windows XP Pro product. This confused me a bit. Can I downgrade Vista Business with XP Pro?

  Also, if I do not need to register with Mircosoft XP, where can I get the registration key of?

  Greatly forward a response.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  A downgrade from Vista to XP is possible. Why not?
  But as far as I know, so you need to reinstall the full specifications but in my opinion, this isn't a problem because you have the XP Recovery disk. Just boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen.

  But before that, you you should burn the Windows Vista recovery disk. How do you know this? You need to start only the Toshiba recovery disc creator and you need a blank DVD. Then the Vista recovery disk will be created, and if you want new Vista, you must start only on this disc. That s all because it contains the settings factory and if all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

  If you have installed XP you must register it on Microsoft. It is not necessary.
  AFAIK, you must enter a product key. It of already on the recovery disk.

• Satellite L300 PSLB8A - cannot locate the WLan adapter after downgrading from Vista to XP

  Model - L300 Satellite PSLB8A-01F004
  Australian model
  Place of residence current UK

  Happy new year to you all. I have a problem with the adapter wireless following a downgrade from Vista to XP Pro home. Device Manager indicates that a network adapter, which is the LAN and it does not work properly.

  I have two points with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

  I find all the major engines of the Toshiba Australia but he lists three (I think) site possible WLAN - Atheros, RealTek, and one of the other manufacturers.

  I tried all three without success but am willing to acknowledge that I can have a mistake, perhaps by installing all three drivers at the same time for example.

  The indicator on the front of the box portable wireless lights on or off with the hard switch setting.

  I am also unable to locate the display of all available wireless netrworks, this can be a symptom of the driver is not installed.

  I tried to locate the wireless card, but it doesn't seem to be accessible through the background panels, including the Panel of RAM module.

  Any ideas please?

  > I have two Articles with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

  The Ethernet controller is the WLAN adapter.
  I guess that the WLan driver is missing and so the wireless network card does not appear under network adapters

• Satellite L355-S7907 - how downgrade from Vista to XP?

  Hello

  I recently bought the Satellite L355-S7907 and do not like Vista I want to run Windows XP Service Pack 2 on it. Now I tried several methods, first start XP from CD, it loads for a few minutes then I get the blue screen of death, by saying that I should run ' CHKDISK F.
  I ran check disk and my my hard drive is fine.

  The other method I've tried is partition my hard drive then when Vista is on trying to install XP on the new partition. Vista allows me to install on a partition, because "Windows on your computer is newer than the version on CD.

  What should I do here? I don't like Vista and I'd love to have XP working on this laptop.

  Any help much appreciated

  Hello

  Downgrade from Vista to XP isn t possible. Therefore, you must make a clean and new Windows XP installation. You wrote that you get a BSOD if you start from XP disc, what code BSOD is it exactly?

  I guess you only need drivers SATA to install XP. Have you installed them?
  In addition I recommend read the discussions here in the forum about it. You'll have hundreds of them! ;)

• 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 ;)

• Upgrade memory RAM of 2 GB or 4 GB on Satellite U205-S5057?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite U205 - S5057 Intel Core 2 T5500 1.66 GHz, 1 GB of RAM

  I want to upgrade the RAM and I'm not sure of what would give the best performance, 4-GB, or 2GB?

  I know that 4 GB is probably better than 2 GB, but I wanted to know if there is a very big difference.

  Worth the investment to upgrade to 4 GB?

  Furthermore, I have Vista

  Thank you

  Hi mate,

  in most cases, 2 GB are absolutely enough since the Windows operating systems cannot take the advantages of more than 2 GB of RAM installed.

  I mean, you'll recognize a difference between 1 GB and 2 GB, but when comparing 2GB 4 GB then won´t you notice anything (except a little differences when working with Corel Draw X 3 and loading of 3 or 5 GB of photos in Corel... ;))

  So I suggest to increase your RAM and if you then want to put some larger HARD drive and faster in your machine from a disk faster HARD wins more performance, then all the rest in a mobile computer system.
