How to install Windows XP in Satellite Pro L300-1 to 9?

Hello!

first of all, sorry if I ask something really obvious, but I'm quite new with this questions... sorry for my English, I'm not native.

I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 1 to 9 with Windows Vista preinstalled, but the thing is that I prefer Windows XP. I tried to install it, but it won't work.

I read a lot of messages and comments on this topic in this forum and also in the web. The problem is that I don't know if the procedure and drivers to download are the same for all models L300. Mine is L300 1 to 9.

Could someone give me a few extra simple instructions (I'm a beginner) on how solve this problem or a link to this question? I saw a lot of them, but none on this model L300 1 to 9.

Thank you very much!!

Hello!

What do you mean with it doesn t work to install Windows XP?
Please explain this!

However, I think you forgot the SATA drivers. These drivers are required to install Windows XP, if your system is running in AHCI mode for better performance.
The drivers, you can download the Toshiba site or on Intel:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

In addition, I think this link might be useful for you:

  • No sound after installing Windows 7 on Satellite Pro U200

    Hello

    I just installed Windows 7 Professional on my Satellite Pro U200 10 p.

    Available for XP Pro.

    Sound has stopped working since the new facility (which fromatting the drive - no partition) and can not find a solution. The v6.10.1.6000 of SoundMAX Integrated Digittal HD Audio Driver is installed. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but this doesn't seem to be the right driver. I can't find info to tell me what the correct driver can be either. The Toshiba site is a little sparse on Windows 7 drivers for this model and gives no indication that the driver may be is.

    Windows 7 does not think that there is a problem and some reports that "this device works properly." in speaker properties > Configuration information dialog box. However not coming out, the speakers or the 3.5 mm jack

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Thank you

    James

    Hello

    Go to Device Manager and check what sound chip you have exactly:

    Use this statement:
    [How to identify an unknown device? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=78]

    Then you should be able to find a good pilot.
    I also recommend remove/delete the sound card in Device Manager.
    Just select the audio remove card and press on, and then restart the laptop

    PS: Are you sure that the sound is not muted? Please check this too!

    On this forum, you will find a large number of discussions regarding the installation of Windows XP Home edition on laptops as A200/P200 or A300/P300, at the request of nLite which can help you to install Windows on your laptop.

  • Is it possible to install Windows 7 on Satellite Pro 6100

    Is it possible to install windows 7 on a Toshiba Satellite pro 6100 computer? I am currently using windows XP.

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    Do you really think on installing Windows 7 over several years old Satellite Pro 6100?

    In my opinion, it won't work because it is too old and not fast enough. Newer operating system that is supported by Toshiba is Windows XP and this should be the best choice for good old classic.

    So just to be satisfied with Windows XP, it's a good choice for older computers! :)

  • How to install Windows XP on Satellite A300-146?

    Hi all

    I need to know how can I install Windows XP on to my Toshiba Satellite A300-146 since I have windows vista with Arabic and this very bad.
    I heard in the laptop we have a SATA hard drive and the problems of British Colombia, who has not read the material.

    Also, I want to know how I can change vista from Arabic to English interface?

    How can configure LAN?

    Just a question;
    Did you go through this forum and simple threads on this topic before you posted this new topic?

    There is a lot of discussion on the installation of Win XP on laptops with SATA controller!
    The procedure is always the same on most portable models!

    You have 2 options; fade you assign compatible in the BIOS SATA mode and would not need to install the SATA drivers or you let the SATA AHCI mode and would include the SATA drivers using an external floppy drive you would have built a new disk Win XP using nLite software.

    PS: SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager!

    How to expel C format Vista?

    Any advice?

    Hello!

    What Windows XP disc do you have? Microsoft?

    Maybe you should do a HARD drive low level format. You can do it with some tools. Google will help you.
    I always use the Drive Fitness Test to do a low-level format:
    http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT

    But before you do, back up your data. The HARD drive will erase completely. Have you created a Toshiba Recovery disk? If this is not the case, to do this. Because when you want to reinstall Vista, you need this record.

    But if I understand correctly this .exe file should be run from windows already. But I again Satellite-L300-11th without any operating system and drivers-CD in the box.

  • How to install Windows 8 on Satellite C855-21W - no disc

    Hello

    Recently my C855-21W SATELLITE HARD drive crashed. All the clothes of lost data.
    Series: YC273011R

    Now, I would like to reinstall Windows 8.
    But I have no CD /DVD and all partitions on the HARD disk are parties.

    How can I reinstall Win 8 on the laptop again?
    Where can I get a DVD?

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's a shame but the HARD drive can still start to dysfunction and, therefore, it s advisable to create a recovery disc before you start using the laptop.

    However, now you can create the recovery disk because the files are lost.
    Now, you have two options:

    (1) you can install the Windows 8 using Microsoft Win 8 disk (you will need to buy 8 win if you n t have it). The essential Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page

    (2) the second option is much easier: you could order the Toshiba recovery from this page http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx disk and will mark the laptop back to the factory settings.

  • Can I install Windows XP on Satellite Pro A200GE-1F9?

    Hello.

    I bought the laptop with pre-installed Vista OS two weeks ago. I would like to remove Vista and install XP but I can not simply do. XP does not see my hard drive and I have no idea how to solve this problem. I have tried to download Intel 31244 PCI - X to Serial ATA Controller and burned with XP SP2 using the nLite software but to no avail. I don't really know what I'm doing wrong. Maybe it's not the right driver?

    Can you please help?

    You used the wrong driver!
    You must use the * Intel Matrix Storage Manager * instead of the Intel 31244 PCI - X to Serial ATA Controller driver!

    If the lines are perfectly horizontal or vertical, and then the glass behind the protective plastic surface is cracked, requiring a replacement LCD.

  • 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 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.
