    I use windows vista 64 bit on HP Pavilion dv9925nr. HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T40L ATA Devicedisappeared 'my computer' and 'Device Manager' list a few days ago. There is no upper and lower filter. Device is that in the "boot order" Start menu device sometimes comes for everything and disappears again. ROM has the power. Opening of the shutter. Device works beacause I copied a cd when it was clear. I think that this problem is related to the software. When the device appeared I also uninstalled from Device Manager and looked for a device change so she is back, but after some time again say aapeared. I want to try once by complete control of formatting and install the new copy of windows 7 and let see if the appliance becomes stable. I can't install with cd rom then how to install using a drive hard usb (WD 200 GB).
    Please suggest.

    Remember that HP does not list Windows 7 device drivers, that's why your computer is not compatible Windows 7.  HP Driver support: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=3740568&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us

  • How to install Windows XP Pro on W2k on the Satellite Pro 6100?

    Hello

    I brought a 2nd hand Satellite Pro, model version SP6100 (PS610E-029ZV-EN), P4 1.7 Ghz, 512 MB, 30 GB, with Windows 2000 Pro installed.

    I can't connect to my wireless router. The switch is in the correct position.
    I have been informed that there could be a conflict between wireless and Win2000 Pro installation. This is why I want to change my WinXP Pro using the key provided with the new laptop (dual operating system). However, I can't reformat using a WinXP Pro disc at first upward, the disc is ignored and Win2000 Pro. If I use the recovery cd (start with holding C and let go when it runs upward), something starts which I presume to be a sequence installation however seconds I see a reference to a (?) drive z, a brief exhibition of three rows of "invalid drive specification" and it still loads Win2000 Pro.

    Can someone advise how (or if!) Can I reformat?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    See you soon.

    Eventually it s a bad boot command but most often it after pressing the C button the laptop should boot from the CD.
    You said something done drive and I think that the start of the player has been activated, but the drive is not able to read the media.
    For me, this looks like a disk failure.

    By the way: check in Manager device if your laptop has installed the wireless network card. In my view, that cannot connect to the router WLan because the map has not been installed. The WLan switch is available because the wireless network card is optional for this laptop. You know?

  • Satellite A200-1YO - problems installing Windows XP Home edition

    Hi guys,.

    First of all I'm new here so Hello to everyone here and I hope you can help me with my problems of software.

    I recently bought a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A200-1YO provided with windows vista (which must be frank, pants and IMO too demanding for the machine) and I have a problem with vista, because some of its features do not seem to work, for example, I'm having a lot of trouble getting some of the webpages to open now, they simply hang out.

    now, I didn't install windows xp but I don't have an external floppy drive. This is not a problem but because I can use Nlite to integrate the drivers in a new ISO of Windows XP.

    The problem is that I have 4 sets of drivers: ICH7M_32bit, ICH7M_64bit, ICH8M_32bit and ICH8M_64bit. As I install Windows XP 32-bit while I'm more or less some that I have not need 64-bit drivers but when I install Windows XP by using the modified version of windows xp slipstreamed, what I get at startup is a BSD error telling me that something has crashed on my hard drive , however I can't say which crashed as the screen disappears after 15 seconds if that so I guess there is something wrong with the drivers I use (though I must admit that I'm not sure the drivers 32-bit to use)

    advice and assistance regarding being able to install windows xp would be welcome, as I said above, however, I can only use Nlite since I do not have a usb floppy drive.

    Satellite A200-1YO has a chip with the ICH8M southbridge Intel GM965.

    So you need the driver for SATA ICH8M_32bit.

    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.

  • I need help, find how to install Windows Vista on a HP Pavilion 6475z disk.

    I need help, find how to install Windows Vista on a HP Pavilion 6475z disk.   I had to replace the hard drive, so he has nothing about it and I added more ram, but I replace the cd player so it is not yet installed on the HP.   So I was wondering if I could put the installation disc in my laptop cd/dvd and connect computers by usb ports and install it this way and if not how can I?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You are welcome

    If the CD/DVD drive in the works of PC Gateway, you can (at least temporarily) remove it and install it in the HP, you can run your recovery disc and reinstall Vista.  Once everything is running on the HP, you can always remove the CD/DVD drive and reinstall it in the gateway PC if you wish.

  • Adding an SSD as a boot drive - how to install Windows Vista Start

    To speed up my new e9105z, I bought a new 80 GB Intel X - 25 M to reduce disk latency and complete the 640GO HARD drive came with my computer.

    Drive has been installed successfully, recognized by the PC and formatted with the Windows Vista Disk Manager tool.  When I use the BIOS tool to set the Intel SSD as my boot drive, it says that some files of startup is missing, and I come to on the HARD disk as the startup disk.

    Bottom line: how to install Windows Vista on the SSD and configure it to start?  Did I lose my classic HDD data in the process?

    Thank you

    Here is where I am/measures taken.  HP of course makes this difficult process:

    (1) used the CD Creator to make a backup.  (Note that the CD - R does not work with the e9105z software.  Do only DVD-R).  (I tried the system HARD disk recovery image.  He simply reinstalled itself on the HARD disk.)

    (2) the value of Vista installed on the SSD via backup DVDs.  System starts beautifully with SSD.  Hooray! I was about to declare mission accomplished, then...

    (3) Reconnected my HDD SATA cable, she failed to be the startup disk.

    (4) I used disk management to reformat the HARD drive to erase its boot sector.  It is always default to the HARD disk, which is more a Vista on it.  Now, I must go into the BIOS and choose the Intel SSD as boot drive whenever I turn on manually.

    Any idea on what needs to be done to configure the BIOS to finally settle the SSD as my boot drive?  The backup system image is still on the old hard drive.  Could that be throwing?

    The SSD speed is great, but the 6 + hours spent on Vista reinstall, reinstall and reinstall throughout this trial and error process made a royal PITA to do.  It seems that HP didn't consider that whether by adding a second drive that is bootable.

    Thank you

    You should be able to select the startup disk in the BIOS.  Restoring image shouldn't be a factor.  If the BIOS settings do not work, I would swap the connectors between the readers.

    Good luck

    Is it possible to install windows xp on vista and keep the two separate?  I would like to go back to xp instead of 7.

    Come on first, site of the manufacturer of your computer, check to see if your model computer has XP drivers available for it...

    If the XP drivers are not available for your model, forget the idea.

  • 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!

    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.

    Chipset
    Robson driver
    Display driver
    Audio driver
    LAN
    Touch Pad Driver
    Card reader
    TOSHIBA software modem
    Wireless LAN driver

    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?
