Hi all.

I ask forgiveness for my English

1. If I is not this floppy drive usb can I implement the driver for the sata controller drivers. On the site

2. for my model there is no driver support under WindowsXp SP2 on a site, only for Windows Vista. There will be WindowsXp SP2 support for my model in the future and are compatible, how the driver Windows Vista for WindowsXp SP2.

Thank you. Again, I ask forgiveness for my English. WBR Nikolay Khachaturov.

Hello

I put t know if I can solve all your problems, but I'll try to give some useful advice.

With regard to the point;

1) you don't need external USB floppy drive.
You can create a clean XP Boot CD. There is a freeware application called nLite.
Using this program you can incorporate additional drivers as the RAID or SATA and MS service packs in a Windows XP operating system.
Just Google for nLite and I'm sure that you will find useful and interesting articles and website on this software.

2) well, it is a mobile American and was designed for the American market.
That's why you should look for drivers on the Web of Toshiba U.S. site.
If you won't find anything, then you try the XP drivers designed for another Satellite A205/A200 series or you seek drivers XP only on chip manufacturing such as Intel, nVidia, etc.

Good luck

  • Re: How to install Windows on the new Satellite Pro C50 8.1?

    I just bought a TOSHIBA SATELLITE PRO C50, that came with Windows 7 pre-installed.

    When you start the system for the first time, I simply close and put Windows 8.1 media into the optical drive (disc 1 of 4) then entered the Recovery Wizard and may have chosen the wrong option, because I completely erase the hard drive and partitions.

    Now that I did it, I can't find how to install the Windows Media Pro 4 DVD provided 8.1. I can't find the correct option to do this. I changed the startup option in the control panel by pressing F2 at startup, so it reads from the DVD player. The DVD starts but then takes me into a recovery area of the system, which is not good as I wiped the system completely.

    How can I just now to install the Pro 8.1 provided Windows on the clean system right now?

    Thanks for any advice.

    First, I would like to know what model of laptop you have exactly. If possible, please report the entire model number (C50-xxxxx). I just want to check the specification for this model of laptop.

    Did you buy this laptop as any new product and model in box?

    Anyway, if you have installation discs original recovery for this, you should be able to install it without problems. Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu. This menu wil shown on the screen, insert disc 1 into the optical disk drive, choose the CD/DVD drive from the menu, and then press ENTER.

    ODD must start reading Wizard disk / recovery will be shown o the screen. Choose the option to install out-of-box / factory settings and just follow menu on the screen.

    Hello

    First you need to download xp drivers: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Second, you must create the floppy or custom installation CD of Windows XP with integrated storage drivers. the custom installation CD, you can use Nlite http://www.nliteos.com/. There are guides in different languages, so you won't have a problem to create a. Don't forget it will have to include "Storage drivers", without them, Setup does not recognize the hard drive.
    Third install XP :)

    But be aware, you may encounter some problems, as audio doesn't work do not (updated Windows XP specific need or Service pack 3), some Fn keys not working do not, some unrecognized hardware and so on... You really have to patient when installing XP on new laptops. So good luck

    (Tip: download all readers and store it because it is quite possible that the LAN/WAN connection will not work without a driver)

  • How to install Windows without recovery disc - Satellite A660 with new HARD drive

    Hey,.

    Portable 500 GB HDD of my friend Toshiba Satellite A660 seems to have died.
    I tied him to my laptop on a sata dock and runs a data recovery program because nothing has been saved. The recovery takes forever, however, and she really needs his computer to work.

    Because the hard disk may be damaged in any case, I am considering buying a new hard drive and install in the Toshiba.

    How can I do this without a recovery disk, though?
    The old drive was a partition recovery on it, I think, but this seems useless with a new drive.
    Operating system is Windows 7 64 bit home edition.

    The product key is on the bottom of the laptop.
    I live in Turkey and so I don't think there is a Toshiba store is close.
    There are individual computer stores, so I'm confident, I can buy a new internal hard drive (I could find the sata dock here), but he must know what to do to install the software, etc.

    Thank you!
    Chris

    > How can I do this without a recovery disk, though?

    You either have the recovery disk or you are going to install the system using the Microsoft Windows disk.
    The necessary drivers are in internet on Toshiba UE page.

    The recovery disc can also be ordered here:

  • Re: IMPORTANT - how to install Windows 2000 on a Satellite L300 - 16 M (PSLB0E)?

    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!

    Post edited by: eanon

    > No I used the wrong AHCI drivers?
    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

    I managed to create the installation with the driver (ts3raidx.exe kr10i.sys) disc for installation can see the hard drive and the first step of the installation is successful.

    But after the first reboot Iam to STOP message 0x0000007B (apparently Inaccessible Boot Device - of the means, but I can not see the message).

    IAM not sure about a few thinks:
    (1) the exact model of my laptop. At the bottom is only the label Toshiba Portege M400. But I have CPU T5600 1, 66 GHz (or 5500 do not know now) that I can't find in any specifications so Iam not sure if Iam using the correct Sata driver.

    (2) the way I've included pilot in the installation of Windows XP. I did it according to this article http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=1703&page=1 but ignoring things of unattended Setup.

    I have also tried Kr10n driver, but it does not at all. First step of the installation has not been successful. The drive cannot be seen.

    Could someone help me please?
    Download the original installation CD of anywhere?

    Thank you very much!

    Petr Varadinov (CZE)

    You n t need the SATA drivers but the RAID drivers!
    The Portege M400 PPM40E supports RAID functionality and you must install the RAID drivers first, before you continue the installation of XP!

    The RAID drivers might be installed from external FDD USB drive connected. The Vista operating system allows the installation of the USB!

    The RAID drivers must be published on the page of Toshiba. To take it!

  • 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
