  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.

  Its hard drive is the hard disk from Western Digital WD 1200BEVS. He told me that when he went to install Windows XP, it came with no HARD drive. I don't know if I can quote the chipset here, but here it is anyway. The chipset is an Intel(r) ICH8M ultra ata storage controllers-2850. All the advice in a simple format would be gratefull. He downloaded the bios unsuccessfully and nlite to work on a computer with some help of a computer technician on a thumb (flash) drive)

  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.

• 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

• Satellite A505-S6922 - how to install Windows 7 drivers?

  I have an A505-S6992 and I try to do a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate. I created the recovery with drivers and applications disc. In what order should I install and how to install Windows 7 ultimate?

  I tried to install by going just to the bottom of the list of applications/drivers, but has encountered an error.

  I think that the order of the facilities must be similar or even the same as on Vista.
  After the clean install of Win7 continue with:
  Chipset
  Robson driver
  Display driver
  Audio driver
  LAN
  Touch Pad Driver
  Card reader
  TOSHIBA software modem
  Wireless LAN driver
  Chicony camera software
  Bluetooth stack
  Port driver
  TOSHIBA Value Added Package
  TOSHIBA hardware configuration utility
  TOSHIBA supervisor password
  TOSHIBA Flash Cards Support utility
  TOSHIBA SD Memory utilities
  AuthenTec fingerprint utility
  TOSHBA face recognition
  TOSHIBA ConfigFree
  TOSHIBA WPS library
  TOSHIBA Assist
  TOSHIBA Speech System
  CD/DVD Drive Acoustic Silencer
  TOSHIBA TRS driver
  HDMI Control Manager
  Of course, it is order facilities Vista and maybe you won't find listed some stuff on the page to download, but at least you can see how it should be installed.
  Next week, I'll get my new Satellite A500 and I'll test the Win7 installation.

  Please let me know if you will be able to install it with success.

  Good luck!

• How to install Windows XP Home on my Satellite L500-1ZP?

  I formatted my Satellite L500-1ZP (PSLS9E) and thought DLI install win xp instead of win7 (do not have the disk/partition backup)
  now, when I start it with the cd of windows XP blue screen 'windows setup' inside start but when its finished loading, it gives me an error code:
  ' * STOP: 0X0000007B (0XF78DA63C, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000).

  I read somewhere that I need to download SATA drivers for my laptop and do a disc to install windows xp with the SATA drivers on it?

  I tried to get these drivers, but I don't know that I have need and how to do the installation disc
  I copy my original windows XP Home cd and put the drivers in a folder somewhere on the disk?

  I hope someone can resolve my problem because the laptop is just over a year, and I don't really want to buy a new...

  I just hope that you created the recovery DVDs until you started to install own OS. After clean operating system installation you not longer have access to data recovery.

  You are right. For the installation of Windows XP Home edition, you need SATA driver. How to install Windows XP Home edition on the new laptop models that you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB85017Z0000R01.htm

  In the end, I must say that your last sentence is pretty confusing to me. You bought the laptop designed for Win7 and you want to use the old WXP on this. Do you really think you need to buy the new laptop if you want to install Windows XP Home edition?

• Re: How to install Windows XP Home on a Satellite L40 - 17R

  I bought a laptop Satellite L40 - 17r without Windows installed and the store didn t give me all the drivers also.
  When I check your "how to install windows XP on a L40.pdf. It says to download the driver package that I can't find on your website.

  I have a Windows XP Home genuine SP2, but I can t install as WXP does ' t find the hard drive.
  I'd be the appropriate driver package to install Windows XP on my laptop.

  If I have an external floppy drive can't, I used a USB drive external hard also add the necessary drivers so that Windows XP can see my hard drive (160 GB HARD DRIVE (5400 RPM) SATA).

  Thanks for your response
  Xavier

  Hello Xavier

  I think installing WXP on L40 laptop is most asked in recent months. I recommend to check this forum category and you will find answer to your question. If you have no floppy, it shouldn't be a problem at all. Solution is Nlite software.

  Use as search terms in the advanced search option and you will find so many threads with exact explanation on its use.
