• Install a new drive HARD satellite 2430 402

  I just bought a HARD drive to 120 GB for my S2430-402 and I was wondering if there was some guides on how to open my laptop, remove the old drive and put the new?
  See you soon
  Mike

  Hello

  Are you sure that the BIOS will recognize 120 GB HARD drive?
  To my knowledge the BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation and probably the size of 120 GB HARD drive is not compatible. The 2430 Sat came with the 40 GB. Am I wrong? So I m sure that the laptop can handle the s 20 GB, 40 GB and 60 GB HARD drive but I m not sure if the 120 GB will work!

  It seems that you will have to test it.
  However, to remove the HARD drive, follow the steps below.

  1. turn the computer with the drive of optical media in your body.
  2 slide the latch of optical media on the left and then remove the optical media drive.
  3. remove the four black screws that fix the computer HARD disk.
  4. with two fingers, pull the HARD drive using the rear brackets. HARD drive slides out of the connector inside the HARD drive Bay.
  5. pull the HDD of the HARD drive Bay.

  Notes; upgrading the HARD drive is not hard, but if you have no experience contact a technician laptop for work.

• Computer to read DVD - one message says that I can not read the DVD, except that I have installed a new driver.

  I have a new Toshiba C650 laptop, and he says that I can not read the dvd on it except that I have installed a new driver. Is this true?

  Hi Bill,

  To be honest, this sounds ridiculous but if you get a message, I suppose it could be possible even if I find it incredible.  Do you have it in a (local or online) retail store or Toshiba?  By any chance did you upgrade from the DVD player when buying (where they may have accidentally neglected to update the drivers of the drive that was originally installed)?

  As it is new, Toshiba should help you with this.  Here's the contact page: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/navShell.jsp?cf=su_contact&pf=true.  Give them everything they need to prove that buy you it and it should be under warranty and then give them the message Word for Word, that you have found.  They should be able to help you.  They can, for some reason I don't know, you don't need to help or guide you through a new driver installation.  I ask for a clear explanation of why this is necessary on a new computer and, if you are not satisfied with the response, ask them to consider that all the faulty computer and replace it.  Even if they won't, he needs the get them less motivated to solve your problem.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  There is no Windows 7 driver for your printer, BUT...

  HP provide instructions that should get your printer working at least... follow them to the letter...

  BTW, the printer MUST be connected through a USB cable...

• PSE 8 fails to run on the new drive hard iMac after Time Machine backup

  I had to have my iMac drive replaced the week last in the replacement of the Apple program. After installing the new drive, I restored the whole Machine on the new drive Time backup. Most things work perfectly, but I get an error message when I try to run PSE 8. The error is 150:30 of error indicating "license has stopped working". I tried a number of things to correct this as described in http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/error-licensing-stopped-mac-os.html, but found that most of the FlexNet referring to article data does not exist on my machine, so I am unable to complete the recommended steps (I did the hidden files visible). Also the Flexnet files do not appear on the backup volume. When I try to reload the software with the original disks I have just the player to make some noise and then eject it. All the other CD/DVD to work as usual. Very welcome ideas

  Download PSE 8 on trial download site and use your current serial number to activate it:

  Can not install Win XP on another hard drive
  
  I work with a...
  HP Compaq 8000 Elite Small Form Factor PC
  
  Original SATA HDD is loaded with Windows 7 Pro.
  
  In order to install a program using this PC as a digital video recorder
  I installed the video capture PCI card and related software. I had problems
  associated with software and Windows 7.
  
  I know that the software works with Windows XP.
  Do not want to remove the original HDD, I tried my win7
  to replace the HARD drive and do a clean install of XP.
  
  I get the same error during the installation of the OS.  I tried different
  SATA and different XP install disks.
  
  The error I get is shown in this photo.

  

  Original HP HARD drive is a Hitachi 160 GB
  
  I tried 2 known to be good SATA drives.
  Seagate 500GB
  WD 80 GB
  
  I checked the bios settings and even revenue tio rear BIOS
  default settings.

  I get this error even with everything I tried to do.

  This happens during the OS install just after or during the process of the installation of temporary files are current

  When I re - install the original HD loaded with Win7, everything works as it
  expected.
  
  Any ideas on what] s going on here?

  Hello:

  The problem is that you must incorporate the necessary sata ahci drivers for windows XP to see the hard drive.

  Has Windows 7 and XP is too old an operating system to make them.

  Read the info at the link below, section of Intel and then read the downloadable PDF document for instructions on how to integrate all the drivers.

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-systems-and-software/SATA-drivers-for-XP-solution-on-0x0000007B-BSOD/m-p/114120#M17758

  The only other way to install XP on this model is to go into the bios, the storage section and change the setting of sata ahci to ide emulation, save the setting here and once again, when you go out.

  The problem is that if you do this, you cannot change the setting for the preferred setting of DCIS, unless you know how to install the correct ahci sata driver after installing XP from the controller.  If you try to just change the setting back on ahci without having to install the controller driver, the PC does not start upward.

  Try "slipstreaming" the drivers first and if you can't swing, install XP in IDE mode and I'll help you get the drivers installed, so you can change the BIOS to ahci setting.
