  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • Firefox 21.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will lose all personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

• After the OS from Vista to Windows 7 upgrade, lost bookmarks. Could they be somewhere in "windows.old"?

  Hello

  I upgraded my OS from Vista to Windows 7 and lost bookmarks, I had in Firefox. Back up my documents files and they are OK. Unfortunately, I don't think to back up my Firefox bookmarks.html file.

  However, I did the upgrade of the operating system from the disk and a "windows.old" folder has been created which seems to have a lot of my old files, applications, and others, but I can't find "bookmarks.html" in the firefox folder or in my user folder.

  Is there another place in windows.old where bookmarks could be, or a different file name, it may be under?

  Please help, there are a few important bookmarks that I lost and which were accumulated over several years.

  Thank you!

  Firefox has not used the file bookmarks.html for storage of bookmark since the release of Firefox 2. You need a JSON bookmark backup file or the file places.sqlite. See this:
  
  http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

  Your old profile is located here in Windows Vista and Win7:
  
  drive: \Users\Windows login user name\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\profile_name

  You may need to display 'files and hidden folders' in Win7 to be able to access the Firefox profile in windows.old files and the new installation of the OS.

  Fn + F9 does not help, Ive already tried to reinstall the drives and the utility of ON / OFF.

• 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!

• Satellite A350 - Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hello

  Can some guide me in degardin Satellite A 350 from Vista to XP?

  Hello!

  And what do you know?

  If you want to install Windows XP on the laptop, you must only start since the installation of the disk and follow the instructions on the screen everything that s!

  But don t forget to install the SATA drivers. Otherwise I think that your HARD drive will be not recognized.
  And before installing XP you must burn the Toshiba Recovery disk if you didn't already. So, you can restore the factory settings whenever you want.

  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:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

  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:

• Is it possible to downgrade Satellite U300 from Vista to XP?

  Is it possible to downgrade a Toshiba Satellite U300 from Vista to XP?
  No matter what guide available on how do?

  I tried to install with a standard XP installation disc, he couldn't even find the drive and refused to start the installation.

  I recently bought this laptop with Vista and was really looking for an XP model avoid all the problems of Vista, but it turns out its almost impossible to find one - have all of Vista.

  I am disgusted with all computer laptop-manufacturers, who are now offering an OS that is not yet ready for the general public, the guard you kicked in the teeth
  and waste your time as m and d, try to find solutions and work around the problems most ridiculous & pointless.

  Virtual PC XP Vista initially seemed to solve a lot of problems, but after a few days, unfortunately, the performance of the virtual machine has deteriorated seriously, I don't know why.

  OK - still happy if someone here can answer the original questions?

  Published by: ADMIN

  Of course, you can install WXP on U300 and you can do this by using the facilities of Microsoft CD. Is very important to have the Storage Manager. This utility is needed to proceedings WXP facilities for the recognition of the HARD drive. You can save it on the floppy drive and import it using the F6 key at startup of installations of Windows XP Home edition.

  Visit the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page > support & downloads. There you can find all the drivers of Windows XP Home for U300. at the first checkpoint Installations Instructions document and use this list for installing drivers, tools and utilities. Follow the exact order of installations.

  Bye and good luck!

• Error message appears during the downgrade from Vista to XP

  I'm trying the last days to downgrade from vista to xp.
  Whe I try to do a clean installation Ikeep error 0x0000007b (0xF7A8A524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000).

  I also tried through the back (which I am not good at) repeat me something on the partion, which it is not.
  When I go through the windows if it says that the version is newer than the one you want to install.

  Hello

  If you want to use the Win XP instead of Vista, then you must do a clean install!
  The downgrade will not work because Vista is newer than XP.

  I put t know what laptop you have, but most of the new laptops support a SATA HDD controller and you must include the SATA drivers to install Win XP.

  In addition SATA drivers are a part of the Intel Storage Manager which should be published on the Toshiba page as well.

  Just a hint; Use the option search advanced this Toshiba forum there are a lot of discussions about this theme!

• 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?

  What is the solution?

  > 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.

  Hi all. I do a downgrade from Vista to XP and I can not foud the drivers.

  Can someone help me plese?

  THX.

  This Conexant posted to Skydrive is the same as the file Mediafire post by Mariza... which is, btw, his own personal discovery and seems better to work for a microphone. Get it if you have problems to Mediafire, like that sometimes.

  I think that Mariza said the Install.exe can be executed from it rather than having to use the Device Manager.

• 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!

• 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 ;)

• Downgrading from Vista to Windows XP Home in Satellite P200-16 b

  Hi people!

  I wonder if someone has already tried to downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP. I have a Satellite P200-16 b.

  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
