Earn 8.1 installation wants to replace Win 7
I would like to install 8.1 as a dual boot. I have 8.1 as a setup file of Microsoft web, apparently intended to install online. When I started the installation everything worked well, but there is no option to run 8.1 on a new partition on the C: drive. It looked as if the installation was about to land on my Win7 partition. I leave the facility.
I really have a lot of disk space on other readers. I would have preferred to set up a dual boot with 8.1 on a new drive and Win7 using the C: drive. If this is not possible, how can I get the web installer to install 8.1 on a clean partition on my C: drive to start instead of the Win 7 partition? I have tools to manage partitions and BCD, but this installation method doesn't seem to give a chance to run install it anywhere, but the location of Win7.
Help or pointers to the instructions would be greatly appreciated.

Why don't you launch Setup from within PowerISO?
Why not browse the DVD or ISO mounted via Windows Explorer and run the installer from there?
What language of Windows 7 is installed and what language of Windows 10 have you downloaded?

Firefox has informed me that he had downloaded an update. When I tried to install it, my iMac asked me if I wanted to replace an OLDER version of firefox. It was not not clear to me why he asked this. If this download is an updated version, why is detected by my computer as an "older version". ? And should I install? I can choose to replace the 'new' version, or keep both. What is the best? (Without unnecessarily using extra space).
Thank you.
Hello phkirby, please always try to download and install firefox from the official site, do the following:
1. download a copy of the latest http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html firefox (full installer)
2. Trash , install the current application of Firefox to do a cleaning.
3. install the version you downloaded.
Do not select to delete your personal data, your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

I want to install WIN 7 on my Dell XP computer. The disc I bought says that the hard disk must be clean first. The disc does not start on the existing XP. How can I do this?
Hello
Have you changed the boot order?
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order and boot from the Windows 7 DVD:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

Do install a cleaning, removal of the existing XP partition and create a new partition to install 7 on in the own installation process:

Hello
I'm trying to reinstall Windows XP (OEM - purchased version advertises in newspapers not to mention it was OEM only) after the installation of the pirate Win Xp (full version). Can I retrieve pirate settings to not reinstall aps (have about 100).
(I guess I have to change registry to eventually replace OEM version with pirate version - it still would make it impossible to activate the automatic updates). Or I can just reinstall registry then replace edition OEM version? (Would still allow the applications to be installed without the re - install?) (A major pain).Visit the Genuine Microsoft software and click on Validate Windows. After that validation fails, look for the Get Genuine button and click on it to find out how to acquire a Kit of WGA. Carey Frisch

The instructions in the same article shows you how to restore the image if you need to do:
http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/24/how-to-backup-your-installation-of-Windows-7/
One of the things that I recommend you do so after creating the system image is to change the name of the computer to something else, so if you decide to create another backup system image, it's not too write the original. You can use this even as a method for having multiple images of different systems.

I want to install Win XP on Satellite A305-S6905
Hello.
I want to downgrade my Vista to XP because of problems and slow down my PC...
For example I can't download updates antivirus, games etc...I read in the forum that I need some kind of sata drivers and those I can do myself, but someone can help me with other drivers because I use this laptop for an hour and I know not what drivers there need.
If someone could give me links to the necessary software, I would be very grateful.
Thank you.
Hello
I think that you couldn't find the right drivers XP because you didn t find on the right-hand page.
Like you probably n t know that this series of laptop (Satellite A305) belongs to Toshiba from US and you have to find good drivers on Toshiba U.S. page!
http://www.toshibadirect.com/TD/B2C/home.toIn addition, if you want to install Win XP on laptop thin, you will need to install the SATA drivers first.
The SATA drivers are on Intel Storage Manager part which can be downloaded from the Intel and Toshiba page page as well.But if you don t want to install SATA drivers, there is another possibility to install the XP.
Just access the BIOS and set the compatible SATA to AHCI mode.That s it.

I want to replace the DVD-RAM UJ-846 for Qosmio G20-127
Hello
I want to replace my carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-846 of the G20-127.
Someone knows his apare part # and any sugestion wich RAM is compactables for my machine and better plase to get?Hello!
If you want to replace your CD/DVD drive, you should look in your user manual. It should be a list of compatible drives that work with Notepad. Check it!
The new RAM should be a SO-DIMM DDR2-533. The part number for 1 GB is PA3411U-1M1G.
Finally and most importantly the best place for spare parts is the authorized service provider. They order all the original parts of Toshiba and the Toshiba site, you can search for the closest.
Good bye

Can someone tell me what than the maximum capacity hard drive I can come up, and if possible what should I look for in an equivalent hard disk if a replacement Toshiba is not readily available.
Thank you very much
Hello
Take a look at this thread:
http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=41606Seems that you need a 2.5 IDE HARD drive.
I think you can take a 120 GB HDD and the HDD should work properly.HARD drive Bay must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
Its guarantee with a plastic cover and screw. Remove the screw, then cover in plastic and then you should be able to remove the HARD drive...Welcome them

Hello everyone,
I want to replace my carpet ODD-Drive * a UJ-811. My question: is this master drive or balm or cabelselect und is compatible with the Slim NEC AD - 7540A?
Thanks for the replyHello
It's not easy to say because this setting depends on the installed firmware.
I can only suggest on this settings and I think that it s a C - SALT.Before buying readers devices, you should be sure that this device is supported.
In this way the Toshiba service partner could provide good info. -
