• Impossible to install Win7 on ENVY 15 t-j000

  I recently bought a HP ENVY 15 t QUAD - E4T17AV

  It comes with Win8 and I honestly can't stand it. Trying to reinstall with Win7, I am unable to find discs to install to. I searched the devmgr win8 to get information about the SATA controller and chipset. I downloaded the drivers and when you attempt to add during the Win7 it found the drivers that are compatible with my system, but when I try to install I get the error ' no new devices not could be found.

  I enabled legacy startup options, disabled secure boot, changed the boot order, all that good stuff.

  I tried to install SATA drives both mSATA connected, that only have one or the other and receive the same error each time. I used several different drivers of HP and Intel, and all receive the same error.

  I read the other messages from people who say that they install Win7 on their 15 t, it must be possible.

  What Miss me?

  Thank you.

  Had the same problem... figured it out... it was not a Sata Contorller driver problem at all.

  1. turn off Secure Boot, active herit.

  2. turn the USB 3.0 BIOS to act as AUTO setting so that the operating system facilities to qualify ports USB 2.0 compatible

  3 HD partition scheme had to be reset... don't know what it was.  Hooked to my Mac and under parition, set it to 1 Partition and chose the MBR as the partition table layout scheme.

  Hope this helps, but still the problem with the graphics drivers from Nvidia and Intel Chipset drivers

• Impossible to install win7 on a Tecra A8 with ssd

  Hi all

  I am trying to install win7 on my Tecra A8 PTA83E and I have the following problem
  -If the drive is a normal hard drive, then installation is complete OK
  -If I change the disc with an ocz vertex turbo SSD, then the installation will stop, at the time when
  Win7 try to unpack the installation files in the disc with an error message "file not found" or similar. "

  I've been reading about SSD in the web and the prime suspect is the IDE - SATA in Bios mode, they
  all you suggest changing the IDE - SATA mode to AHCI mode. I look in the Bios in Toshiba Utilities
  and not found anything.

  Anyone know how to change the mode in the Bios, if course is supported?
  Also, someone installed win7 SSD in other models and have any suggestions?

  I'd appreciate any suggestions.

  Hello

  As I know the BIOS Tecra does not support this option.
  But it s not no need to change something in the BIOS because the Windows 7 contains the necessary SATA drivers.

  However, I think you should check the SSD manufacturer support page that maybe a firmware must be updated

  I also recommend the formatting of this SSD again maybe it helps

• I need drivers to install Win7 64 bit on mSATA SSD

  Hello!

  I need drivers to install WIN7 x 64 on THNSNH256GMCT mSATA SSD

  Serial number on my product is 23NS10BFTABY

  Thank you!

  This serial number does not help much. It will be better if you can display the name of the exact model laptop and the model number.

  Anyway, visit Toshiba support and download page for your country and if your laptop model is supported for Win7 64 bit, you should be able to find all of the necessary drivers, tools and utilities.

• Portege Z830: Cannot install Win7, complains about driver CD/DVD

  Hello!

  I have a brand new Portege Z830 and as usual wanted to start by installing a new installation of Windows 7 x 64 (that I don't want the software provided and cannot be trusted, that it is safe in any case). I have saved all of the disk, prepared a flashdisk USB bootable with Windows Setup and it. The flashdisk OK boots, Windows wonder about my language and keyboard, and then shows a screen where I can choose between installation, repair and something else (the Recovery Console, I think).

  I click on install, Windows starts the installation program aand once a first dialog box appears, it displays an error message that basically says (this is a translation of the message from my localized Windows): "a required CD/DVD drive driver is missing. If you use a driver from the floppy disk, CD, DVD, or the flashdisk, insert now. "And I can't get over this error message. The strange thing is, there is no reason for that Windows requires no additional driver, because he can read the installation flashdisk (apparently) and he can see the ultrabook SSD, too (can be verified as well in the recovery console and clicking the browse of this dialog box). So far I have tried:

  (1) four different Windows 7 images (two of them to MSDN AA, two physical, that have been used successfully to install the OS before).

  (2) switch SATA mode to AHCI Compatible.

  (3) two different flashdisks.

  (4) any combination of the boot order.

  Nothing has worked. I even tried e-mailing of Toshiba, but all messages to return with 'user unknown' (understandable, I had to guess addresses since Toshiba doesn't seem to provide some official way to communicate with them - or is hiding if well I have found it). Does anyone have an idea what I can try next? I rather like the Z830 and I'd love to use it, but the ability to install my own installation of the operating system is essential for me.

  Thanks, Pepak

  > I tried e-mailing of Toshiba...
  Maybe stupid question now, but have you tried to contact Microsoft too? If the BIOS is OK, and if all the USB ports work correctly, I don t think it is Toshiba related issue. Toshiba offers notebook with the original recovery image (WIN7 64-BIT HOME PREMIUM) and ability to create bootable USB stick with the recovery image that can be used when you want.

  What you do now is your own installation of the OS. Toshiba has to do is to offer to all the important factors, download tools and utilities on the drivers page.

  What else could you try? Try to get external USB ODD and trying to install WIN7 using Microsoft installation disc. I'm sure it will work.

  Hello

  I intend to buy Satellite A300-1MT (PSAGCE), and before I do I just check if there are still some problems with drivers for W7 for this model?
  On other forums, I saw that there are some problems with drivers like music keys, webcam, touchpad and FN keys and so on...

  So, can someone confirm me that all drivers are now available and everything works?

  And also until I started installing drivers is there anything I need to know (wait used?) Or perhaps better: does anyone have a special notice?

  Please, find the will to respond! Thank you very much!

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A300 running Win7 32 bit, but my model is PSAG8E.
  To be honest I have very good experience with installing Win7 on Satellite A300 and I can recommend you to install on this Satellite.

  Here is the list how I did this exactly:
  atellite A300 (PSAG8E) and clean Win7

  -Win7
  -chipset driver
  -Storage Manager
  -display driver
  -driver sound
  -modem driver
  -utility supervisor
  -infrared
  -patches 1.2
  -configfree
  -VAP

  Everything works well but lacks some drivers

  Added Vista tips:

• Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) - hardware problems after I installed win7 ultimate

  Hello and good day,

  I installed win7 ultimate a few days ago, windows was able to recognize most of my material accepts my build of microphone and camera and another component, I'm not sure what it is (Windows Update automatically downloaded the driver of sound and graphics for me).

  My questions are - where you can find the remaining drivers and where can I get the preinstalled Toshiba tools and software? (The site pilot in the support page Toshiba does not include drivers and software)

  Thank you very much
  King Ben Simon

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) too and installed Win7 Home premium and everything works perfectly.

  Initially, I must say that I do not know where you are looking for the drivers and tools of Toshiba and that all things because utilities are downloadable on support Toshiba & download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

  It is logical that MIC will not work if you have not installed the appropriate driver. Installing drivers only and not using Microsoft update. What you need are the real and tested and not some free drivers of the internet.

  Go to the Toshiba download page and install all the stuff following this order of installations:
  -Win7
  -chipset driver
  -Storage Manager
  -display driver
  -driver sound
  -modem driver
  -utility supervisor
  -infrared
  -patches
  -configfree
  -VAP
  Hardware - toshiba
  Control - HDMI
  -WLAN driver

  Everything works well but lacks some drivers

  Added Vista tips:
  Toshiba - help - working properly
  -Card reader - installed correctly
  -Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - works correctly.
  Driver - Synaptics

  How can I format my HARD drive and then install windows 7?

  Thank you

  At the beginning I will say that I hope that you have created a recovery media (DVD or USB) before you have begun to install Win7.

  Return to your Win7 installation. A long time ago I installed Win7 on friends U940 and the first stage was changing course startup in the BIOS settings mode - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2C03F80002R01.htm
  After the installation Win7 has started successfully, but in my case the SATA driver support was necessary.

  Please check first and send comments.

• Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC1E-03Y010EN) boot from CD/DVD to install Win7

  Looks like this ain t going to go quietly.

  Problem 1
  I get this error message when I set the BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD then the HARD drive and install Win7

  Windows did not start because the file
  \System32\hal.dll is not installed or is corrupt please reinstall

  I ve discovered that l n nor Win7 or Vista use it, so I m assuming it is a blocking when I upgraded to Win7 Ultimate to XP Pro?

  Problem 2
  I get the error message when I set the BIOS to boot from the HARD drive and the CD/DVD

  Windows has a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer

  This error can be caused by disconnecting a device of removable storage, such as a USB external drive while the device is still in use, either by faulty hardware such as a hard drive or a CD-ROM that fails. Make sure that all removable storage is properly connected, and then restart your computer.

  FILE: \boot\BCD
  STATUS: Oxc00000e9
  An unexpected i/o error has occurred

  Did I miss something in the installation of this new HARD drive?
  Anyone has any ideas what's wrong?

  Should I think about cloning the HARD drive to the new HARD drive and then just stick the new HARD drive in the computer?
  I have a copy of XXClone who claims he will do this and make sure the new drive is bootable so is it worth it?

  Thank you

  Installation of Win7 on an A120 can be difficult.

  Have you updated the BIOS?

  What is the size of the HARD drive?

• Installing Win7 on Satellite M70-173 - query of wireless internet

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M70-173, which I think to be up-to-date with windows 7. However after you run the windows 7 Advisor, he told me to download the driver of the wireless device that is:

  Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

  I put t really know what it is? Is my wireless 'card '?
  In any case, I check on the Intel site for the updated drivers for win7, and he says:

  "Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection does not support Microsoft Windows * 7.

  Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection is no longer manufactured by Intel, nor Intel provide any future software updates to support new operating systems or improve compatibility with devices and third-party software products. "

  Does this mean that I should not install Windows 7?

  How can I work around this problem, do need me to upgrade and how much would this cost?
  Thank you

  Satellite or Equium M70 is old model of laptop computer designed for Windows XP Home edition, so it is certainly not taken in charge for Win7. It is certainly possible to install Win7 on this laptop, but you will not be able to make it work with all the options that are specific to Toshiba.

  Yes it's the wireless card if this card doesn t work for lack of best drivers and the best option for you is to buy the wireless USB dongle. Ask your dealer how local it costs. As far as I know that's not expensive.
