How do we install Win XP on Satellite L10

I want to reformat my Satellite L10 XP to clean all the files: the XP is on the computer.
How can I reformat it?
F2 no F12, F8, then what else?

Hello

Usually, you should be able to access the BIOS by pressing the F2 key immediately after turning on laptop.
You should also be able to activate the start menu on the screen by pressing the F12 key immediately after turning on laptop.

I put t know why this doesn t function on your L10 Sat, but this could be linked to the hardware failure.

Please check again!

PS: by pressing the C button should also allow booting from the CD/DVD drive!

    How can I install win xp on U300-150 / model: PSU30e

    I try to start from the CD Win XP SP2, but don't can't detect any HARD disk.

    How can I do?

    There is no option in the bios to support SATA or IDE

    Please help me

    Hey Buddy

    You won't find any IDE or SATA settings in the BIOS. The problem is that you have not installed the SATA driver that is needed to install the XP on this laptop.

    Intel Matrix Storage Manager is the key!
    The storage manager should be included in the Windows XP operating system during the installation process using the F6 key.
    On the other hand, you could include the Storage Manager using the free app called nLite.

  • 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.to

    In 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.

  • Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C50-A-1JT

    Hello

    You just buy new C50-A-1JT which came with an installation of Linux Mint, I won't, because it's for my mother in law who barely knows windows, and even less to ask him to learn to use Linux.

    I tried to make a bootable USB key with win 7 installation (that I would do on a normal pc).
    The windows installer seems to load fine, but when I press Windows Installer, I get "a required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. »

    The problem is that my laptop did not contain driver disks, so I wonder what I can do to install Win 7 on it.

    Thank you
    Mark

    About this error message, see Microsoft Knowledge base article:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2755139/

    This problem occurs for the following reasons:
    The installation DVD is removed during the installation process.
    A bad quality DVD has been used to create the installation DVD.
    The speed at which the installation DVD is burnt was too fast.
    The DVD drive cannot read media.
    The ISO file is corrupted.

    Given that you don t use the installation disc but a USB flash memory stick, I suppose that the image on the USB flash memory stick file is corrupt or there is a problem with the support of USB flash memory

  • Impossible to install Win XP on Satellite A200-1BJ instead of Vista

    First of all, I had a problem than Win XP. It is not the hard drive.
    So I bought a USB floppy drive and I have solved this problem and I continued the installation process and all files copied to the hard drive (I still have the blue hear on-screen) and needs to restart installation.
    It of the problem with infinite loops of reboots without going into windows.

    Hello

    I think you need to create a new Win XP using nLite application.
    By using this software, you'd be able to include the SATA drivers (in the Storage Manager) and other files of driver and MS service packs or patches MS

    The Win XP which you try to install must contain min SP2!

    Please note that there is also a special update BIOS version for Win XP at the moment its 5, 60 - Win for Sat A200 PSAE6E.

    So you need to update the BIOS check if you can do before installing Win XP!

  • How can I install win 8 and win 7 on the same machine

    I am running Win 7 Ultimate and want to install Win 8 Pro as an additional operating system without remove Win 7 and then have the ability to boot to one of the OS.

    One possibility would be to run Windows 8 as VM on Windows 7, although it may not give the best experience.

    Otherwise you're going to need another partition or another drive to install Windows 8 on. If you're talking about a laptop, then additional disks options are few but for a desktop computer, it is by far the best option.

    Provide the original disc is not full shrink the current C: partition to create the ability for Windows 8 must be installed on the empty space is not so difficult, that's exactly what I did with my Acer Touch PC to allow me to test Windows 8 and it worked perfectly (no space for another drive). I could even point Windows 8 at the partition of Windows 7 to search for drivers for the unidentified material, and all have been resolved.

    I have a PC repair business and a customer gave me a portable Satellite C850-1 kN which took a catastrophic hard disk failure (just clicking from the road).

    I replaced the hard drive and tried to boot from a DVD 8 Windows, changing the order of startup in the bios, however, it still gives an error message "no boot device."

    I see no way to turn off boot UEFI, it appears grayed out in the configuration of the bios.

    First, you must know that the (CSM/UEFI mode) parameter must be changed if you want to install the system supported UEFI not (Win 7 and higher).
    Win 8 and 8.1 Win are UEFI capable systems and you should be able to use the option to UEFI mode.

  • How to install Win XP on Satellite L640

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L640 running windows 7.

    I need to use a software which is software XP, so I want to install XP on the L640.
    I have the Windows XP disc in the CD tray and I have chosen the CD/DVD as a source of start-up number 1 priority in the BIOS.

    The computer does not start from the disc, but goes directly from Windows 7.
    Is it possible to install Windows XP on this laptop?

    I do something wrong, or maybe it is a defective drive?

    Thank you, David

    As a general rule I don't see no reason why you shouldn't be able to install Windows XP Home edition, but what confuses me, is that you even could not start Windows XP Home edition Setup. Do you use the original disc of Microsoft?

    Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu. Put the CD into the optical disk drive, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER. The same thing happens again?

    By the way: did you check the Toshiba download page if WXP drivers, tools and utilities are available for your laptop model?
