How to install Windows 2000 on Equium A200-1VO?

Hello

Can someone help me?

I would like to install Windows 2000 on the Toshiba Equium A200-1VO laptop, but I need the drivers to do this.
I have tried the Toshiba web page but cannot find the drivers.

Can someone please?

Thank you

You will not be the drivers because this Vista designed for laptop is not supported by this old operating system. Maybe you can find the drivers for Windows XP Home edition, but not for W2000.

All you can do is search for the drivers on the net and hope you have success with it.
I don't know why you would do this, but perhaps you should accept that at some point Toshiba must say stop and don't waste time with the support of the older operating system. I also believe that 0.01% people want to use this old operating system on new generation laptops.

There is no sense to make support for W2000. What do you think about this?

    Hello

    I am an independent developer and absolutely need to install multiple operating systems on my * Satellite L300 - 16 M (PSLB0E) *: it is very important for me because I need to check the functioning of the software under each environment for real (not not using solutions like VMware, for example).

    Well, then, right now, I did a backup Acronis image of original full HDD, and then deleted the original scores of WinRE and data, reduced and moved from disk to the partition of Vista... and installed System Commander 8 to prepare my future multi - initialize. For the moment, everything sounds right: Vista works perfectly!

    Also note, I have configured the SATA in the BIOS Setup in "Compatibility" mode just because I don't need AHCI in my type of use!

    Second step: now, * I have to install Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) EN *. Of course, I am aware that the sticking point is the SATA/AHCI driver, which is not present in the CD of Win 2 K... So, I just make a new CD integrating these drivers using nLite; now, I tried using the driver Intel site on Intel 82801 HEM / HBM SATA AHCI controller (ICH8M) and page drivers Toshiba XP.

    But it does not completely: the Win 2 K install begins... All the drivers are well charged (including the ones AHCI) and just after this stage of loading, I get a black screen with just a blink of an eye cursor at the top left of the screen... indefinitively :-(

    I tried also to SATA mode "AHCI" in the BIOS and it's the same thing.

    So, what to do next?

    I used the wrong AHCI drivers? Do I need to integrate as many drivers Toshiba (about chipset, display, sound) in the installation of Windows 2000 using nLite CD? I mean the capacity of the CD is not reached.

    Is there a way or a tutorial to install Windows 2000 somewhere? For XP, I think it will be easier because SP3 seems to support AHCI, but earlier, my problem is to install Windows 2000: Although Microsoft wants to leave-it, there are many professionals who still use-it... And my work as a developer, is to make my software also works on this OS! * I really need to find a way to install it on this computer! *

    Awaiting your response informed and all the tips or idea that could help me to complete the task.
    In a word: HELP! Oops!

    Perhaps.

    As far as I know that you need the crib Intel Matrix Storage and in this package, you will find the SATA drivers.
    http://www.Intel.com/support/chipsets/IMSM/index.htm

    There you have to choose to get the latest driver - version PV-> Win 2000 8.5-> there you must take the package from point 3

    Good luck

  • Cannot install Windows XP on Equium A200

    Hello

    I uninstalled vista on my laptop Equium A200. My idea was (a popular) to uninstall vista and XP, get rid of the unstable operating system (sorry, personal opinion)

    Of course the XP installation noted that I have no disks on my pc. I got the SATA drivers, purchased an external floppy and F6'ed my path to the windows install. I needed to manually edit files on my floppy drive, so that the installation of the OS would find the drivers as well. I got through the complete installation, when she saves the settings in the very fine tip, it restarts automatically (I don't remember if XP was supposed to do by default, anyway) when the system starts up once again, it appears the blue screen of death of about 0.5 seconds and restarts.

    Now, I also had a disk with nlite, so drivers were there so I tried this and everything was the same (I don't need my way through installation F6) and the last blue screen of death pointed out that there is once again a problem with my HARD drive and I have to check for viruses.

    I am of ideas at the moment. I don't want to take it back to the shop cause, that they will probably charge me for it and still put vista.

    any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    The XP installation should be possible. Don t see serious reasons why the XP shouldn't t run on your A200 Equium.

    As you know the driver SATA (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) must be included during execution of the XP installation

    It is very important that you install a XP with SP2!
    Win XP without the XP2 may makes problems

  • How to install Win 2000 form a USB CD on a protected 3440CT

    Hello Sam

    I have never done this, but I assume that you need DOS driver for the external hard drive. You must start the unit by using the startup disk, install the correct driver, and after that, I think that you will be bale to use external player of ODD.

    Please check that a little this Portege category and you will find a lot, but really a lot of topics with the same theme and a lot of interesting observations and proposals how to proceed.

  • How to install Win XP on Equium P200

    Hi guys,.

    I found a very useful tutorial, how to install windows xp on laptop Equium P200.
    Problem is that when I did everything what in this tutorial (used nlite, made the install xp with sata drivers cd) Win Xp is show error.

    When you boot from the cd, and all the drivers are loaded, it will show me a blue screen saying that installation was arrested for not to damage my pc and its saying that the error is in the pci.sys file...

    The ides what it could be?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure why this error but I've had an idea.
    Maybe the installed Intel Matrix Storage Manager doesn t support the good chipset.

    I ve towing different versions of the Intel Matrix Storage Manager and both versions support different chipsets.

    Always is it that there are different series Equium P200 which needs different drivers.
    I think you should visit the European driver Toshiba page and must choose the right notebook series! Compare the serial number located at the bottom of the device!

    Then try the installation again.

  • How to install Windows 10 on mac not supported

    Hi all

    I have a MacBook Pro 15 inch 2011 lag and I try to install Windows 10. I've tried 3 different methods. I can provide more information if necessary.

    I had running Windows for 10 minutes (2 reboots) until he got stuck on the screen to start due to an unknown error (probably error compatibility)

    I am currently give up and try to install Windows 7 instead, hoping that he'll be fine

    If any of you guys have any suggestions please tell me this is greatly appreciated!

    I don't think that you can install Windows 7 with Boot Camp on El Capitan:

    • A Microsoft Windows installation media or disc image (ISO) containing a 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows 8 or later *.

    From: How to install Windows using Boot Camp - Apple Support.

    Windows 10 is simply too new for your Mac, and Windows 7 is too old. It is quite a difficult situation. If you really need Windows, you would need to get a copy of Windows 8, or put to level to an earlier version of Mac OS X with a version of Boot Camp that works in Windows 7.

    John

    Hello John

    It is not easy to understand the whole situation, especially the part with the virus.
    In my opinion, Windows XP Home edition installation should not be problematic.

    What you need is Windows XP Home SP2 or SP3 and driver SATA edition disc. Without SATA driver disk HARD will be not visible to Windows XP Home edition.

  • Satellite A210-15Y - how to install Windows XP?

    I had Windows Vista and I improve it with Windows 7. Now, I really want to install Windows XP.
    When I put the Windows XP CD in after awhile I get a blue screen whit an error.

    pls tell how to install Windows XP on my laptop and if I need some drivers do pls put links of whereIi can get them.

    PS Sorry for the bad English

    Hello

    I think the problem is that you tried to install Win XP without installation of the SATA driver.
    The A210 need driver SATA to recognize the HARD drive.

    You can also check the BIOS settings. There should be an option called SATA mode.
    This can be set between AHCI and compatible and this will allows you to install the Win XP without the first installation of SATA drivers.

    Also check the other threads here in the forum on the same topic!

    PS: It is advisable to use Win XP including SP3! You can include the SP3 using nLite software!

  • Re: Portégé R700 - how to install Windows 7 on new SSD?

    Hello!

    I want to change my HDD in Toshiba Portege R700 to SSD. How to install Windows 7 on this new SSD? I don't have any Windows installation disc.

    Or that it will be possible to move the partition of the old HDD to new SSD (using Acronis, I could move the partition on the new HARD drive)?

    I've heard of partition offset and this SSD block should be the same as FAT cluster (the same alignment).

    All advice? (I know should I defragment my HARD drive before moving :))

    Hey Buddy,

    > I do not have any Windows installation disc.
    Create the Toshiba recovery disc as mentioned in the manual of the user before you exchange the disc, then you have a Setup disk. The Toshiba recovery disc will restore parameters of the box with all the drivers and tools. It can be used on each disc and how many times you want.

    After this change the drive and start the Toshiba recovery disc. Follow the instructions on the screen and everything will be installed.

    Check this box!

  • NB100 - how to install Windows 7 without CD player

    Hello. I was wondering if anyone knows how to install Windows 7 Pentecost on a CD player.

    I have an external HARD drive.
    Is - this posibel to make an image on this one to boot from?

    Hmm, I think that's not possible.
    I know that it was possible to install Win XP without the disc.
    You simply copied the folder integer i386 to the HARD disk and executed to the Winnt. EXE

    I have no experience with Win 7 but I also didn t find details that something like that would not be possible so I guess that's not possible
