• How to create the dual boot with Red Hat Linux and Vista on Satellite A200

  Hi all!

  I have a Satellite A200 pre-installed with vista home premium and I would install another OS that is Red Hat Linux Fedora Core 7.
  Can someone advice me how do? I'll be very grateful to receive your answers. Thanks again!

  Well, I put t use this Linux distro on my laptop but I used the Knoppix Live CD and it was very easy.
  It was not necessary to install anything. I simply booted from the Live CD and I could use the full Linux operating system.

  So, it might be better to use this Linux live CD instead of the complete installation.
  I think that the main problem would be available to the driver.
  The fact is that Toshiba does not support Linux on laptops and so Linux drivers are not available.

  > Satellite Pro L40 - how to make a dual boot with two recovery disks?
  Short answer: you can't do that. Maybe if you have two hard disks (I tried didn't) but as much as I know your SP L40 has only one.
  Ask this smart guy, how to do this. Maybe it's a useful tip.

• Dual boot with Vista-XP on two discs

  I just bought A200-S01-PC and I want to dual boot with Windows XP Home edition, Vista is pre installed and I want to install Windows XP Home edition on my second drive, so I can use it for College next year.

  I tried to boot from the CD but I get an error saying that it cannot find any installed readers.

  Please I need help?

  Hello

  I don't think you can install OS second on the second HARD drive and I don't really know if this second HDD can be used as a boot device. I really don't know, but you can check it yourself. My A200 has a HARD disk only.

  But what you can do for yourself is to install Windows XP Home edition on the second partition of the first HARD drive. There is no problem and I did the same thing on my laptop.

  But back to drive HARD invisible. This has nothing to do with the dual-boot. Plese check this thread. You will find nice discussion how to install WXP when the HARD drive is not visible.

  Bye and good luck!

  Before you try to install Windows XP to create a new partition.
  Then boot from the XP CD and install it. After that, you must restore the bootloader of Windows Vista using EasyBCD, for example.
  All that s!

• create the dual boot with an external hard drive

  I want to create dual boot laptop (OS 2 in 1) in my laptop, but my internal hard drive reach maximum (3) logical partition for my windows operating system 7 is not allow me to create a new logical partition install win8 pro. I've planed to buy an external hard drive and connect with my laptop and install win8 in external hard drive and use win8 and 7. Is it possible? If possible how to create? Please give me instructions step by step.

  Hi Karthik,

  If your hard drive has enough free disk space, you can install a newer version of Windows on a separate partition and keep the earlier version of Windows on your computer. It's called a multiboot or dual-boot configuration. Every time that you start your computer, you can choose which version of Windows to run. You can also install Windows 8 on an external hard drive and use it to dual boot.

  You can see the Microsoft article below for more information about this.

  Install multiple operating systems (multiboot)

• Satellite P840: How to create the secure boot with UEFI Bios recovery disk

  I then updated to Windows Pro 8.1 by Windows store. Please notify:

  1. how to create a DVD repair or start for windows 8.1 pro with UEFI Bios and boot secured.

  2. I created a USB recovery using the control panel in Windows Pro 8.1. It starts OK. It will be the same as that I've created using the Toshiba Media recovery creator or will it drivers Windows Pro 8.1?

  3. check partitions with disk management, then 3 (450MO, 350 MB and GB 10.90) recovery partitions, 1 EFI system partition and 2 primary (C: programs) and D: for data. I created the recovery DVD and USB 2 disks. Can I remove the 3 recovery partitions?

  > 1. How to create a DVD repair or start for windows 8.1 pro with UEFI Bios and boot secured.
  To be able to boot from sources other than the drive HARD internal, the boot mode must be set to the CSM and secure boot must be disabled!

  > 2. I created a USB recovery using the control panel in Windows Pro 8.1. It starts OK. It will be the same as that I've created using the Toshiba Media recovery creator or will it drivers Windows Pro 8.1?

  Your laptop has been preloaded with Win 8. Right? For example, the USB flash stick memory you just use the Toshiba Recovery media creator contains the Image of Toshiba with Windows 8. Don t mix this Toshiba image with the image that can be created using Microsoft's own backup and restore function. Both are different pictures!

  > 3. Check it with disk management, then 3 (450MO, 350 MB and GB 10.90) recovery partitions, 1 EFI system partition and 2 partitions primary (C: programs) and D: for data. I created the recovery DVD and USB 2 disks. Can I remove the 3 recovery partitions?

  The last partition contains the files on HARD drive recovery. Usually this partition will be created again when you use the Toshiba Recovery disk to put the laptop back to factory settings. So in the case where you n t need this files or the partition, you can delete

• How to remove XP pro to accidental dual boot with XP Home

  I had to reformat my wife's computer.  It is a store brand AMD athlon 2500 with 2 GB of ram.  It came with a copy of XP Home recovery disk.  I wanted to create a second logical drive on the computer to store the data, but the recovery disc can not do this.

  I used a copy of XP Pro I have to format the hard drive in 2 logical drives here but he installed XP Pro as well.  It is not allowed for this machine.  I thought I would install XP Home Edition from the recovery disk and it would be more to write XP Pro, but it didn't.

  Now I have a dual boot with XP Pro and XP Home, I want to keep I want to delete.  It appears after the MESSAGE that there is an option for home or similar to a GRUB menu Pro.

  I note in 'My Computer' C: WINDOWS and watch WINDOWS.0 I guess que.0 is the installation of Pro as it happened first.

  Any suggestions on how to remove the installation of Pro and leaving the House intact?

  Thanks in advance, Al

• Dual boot Windows vista 32 bit with win 7 64 bit

  Is it possible to dual boot

  Windows Vista Business 32-bit
  with
  Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
  I do not want I want to have two operating systems
  Now, I have a 25 GB Partion ready for Windows 7, I only have Vista currently.
  Apparently XP32Bit can dual boot with win7 64-bit but can vista 32 bit?
  There will be problems with a Dual Boot Vista/Win7?

  Hello

  You must ensure that 64-bit Windows 7 drivers are available from the manufacturer of your computer for all the hardware, or it will not work properly.

  And is the same for your printer, etc.

  Read this tutorial on dual boot them, including system requirements:

  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/5166-dual-boot-installation-Windows-7-Vista.html

  See you soon.

  p.s. We need a full license of Windows for two operating systems, as upgrade does not here apply.

• How to create a recovery disc with all vista updates?

  original title: how to create a recovery disc with all vista updates without starting from scratch, so I can replace my hard drive?

  My hard drive seems to be dying.  I would replace the drive.  I reloaded vista from scratch with all the updates, but it took forever.  I would like to make a record of recovery with all updates.  IAM on vista Home premium.  32 bit

  If you want a good backup program that backups image, I recommend Acronis True Image 2010:http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/.  It offers a free trial, so you can test and if you want it's only about $30 for the original version.  A lot of people I know this program and use it instead of Vista even in versions of Vista that offers imagery as this program does a better job.  Of course you also need a place to put the backup (which will take a lot of space), so also consider.  The best choice would be a USB external hard drive at least as large as the readers you want to back up (not only the data on them, but the entire available disk space, so you miss when you add more information about the disks).

  You cannot use IMGBURN do - it can't do anything like that.  It must be the imagery of backup software.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
