• Qosmio G30 - No. HDD recognized during installation of Windows 7

  HY, I tried to install win 7 on my Toshiba Qosmio G but after running the installer of windows 7, it does not find the drives to install on. My Qosmio has 2 discs. In the BIOS, they are marked as SATA (I can't change this setting) and the first to RAID0 and the second JBOS.

  When you run the installation from my XP environment, I get the message that the AHCI driver is not installed. I downloaded the latest driver for storage of matrix from Intel and upload it in the setup of Windows 7, but it still does not recognize my discs. See a suggestion or an answer to my problem?

  Of course, I installed the latest version of the BIOS... it's from 2008-09. Intel matrix storage drivers where very recent 17/07/2009. But according to the website of Microsoft AHCI and SATA drivers must be included in the installation of Windows in any case.

  PS the version that I'm trying to install is RC build 7100

  Thanks for some comments,
  Bert

  Hello

  First of all, you should tell us what model Qosmio you exactly. There are many different Qosmio models on the market.

  To me it sounds like that, you simply use the wrong driver AHCI/RAID. If your Qosmio is equipped with a RAID controller you need other drivers and not the Intel Storage Manager. To install Windows in this case, you have RAID drivers they belongs to the RAID controller.

  As said Akuma search site Web from Toshiba RAID drivers:

• Installation of Windows 7 64 bit on Envy M6-1205dx - I'm screwed for now...

  I just want to M6-1205dx... First thing I did was bust on my CD of Windows 7 64-bit... I enabled legacy mode so that it can boot from CD... I deleted all but the recovery partition (thinking it would allow me to go to Windows 8 I if desired)... I install W7, and then he got all the way to the end of the installation and gave error "" windows cannot configure at installed on this hardware "and won't be finished...»

  Then, I discovered that it is not a recovery (must have need of one of the other partitions I deleted) and given that manufacturers no longer include media (all the cents.35 it cost them) I'm totally screwed...

  I really wish I had loaded W7, but if that's impossible, I would put 8 on!

  Any ideas?

  PS: The Linux Suse 10.2 installation runs without problem.

  Question: Who knows the good driver for Windows XP? Thank you.

  Hey buddy the RAID driver can be found on the Toshiba driver page.
  Use this driver as part of the tool called nLite. You can create a new XP CD and could include the RAID driver using this free tool.

• Preparation of an installation of Windows XP Home edition CD with a MINIMUM required drivers for A200-1AX

  Greetings,

  I am trying to install Windows XP Home edition on my old days by Satellite A200-1AX. Today, I tried to boot from the CD of Windows XP Home edition or after the copy of the system files, the laptop produces the error that Setup did not find any hard disk during the Installation of Windows XP. I looked on the internet and found the following page:

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows/resolving-Setup-did-not-find-any-hard-disk-drives-during-Windows-XP-installation/

  Explains how to resolve this problem. So I try to make my own installation CD of Windows XP Home edition with the necessary drivers. My first question is: what are the minimum required drivers to ensure a smooth installation process until I get the XP running? It is not necessary to install the drivers for all the A200-1AX since the first installation of XP, I can always go back and install those remaining of the XP; but I don't want the installation process interrupted due to a missing driver where I have to repeat the process of manufacturing more install of WXP CD custom. The list of drivers and devices provided by Toshiba is too long to write on a single installation with XP CD.

  My second question is: there is an update of the bios/firmware required in accordance with the instruction list. Is it necessary BEFORE or AFTER the installation of Windows XP Home edition?

  If I decide to go back to VISTA using the recovery CD, I must restore the bios/firmware?

  Thanks in advance for your answer.

  Best regards, Ashraf.

  > My first question is: what are the minimum required drivers to ensure a smooth installation process until I get the XP running

  You will need to include only the Intel Matrix Storage Manger for the XP CD again. Without this iMSM XP will not see the HARD drive
  This driver is important. Other drivers can be installed after the installation of XP!

  > My second question is: there is an update of the bios/firmware required in accordance with the instruction list. Is it necessary BEFORE or AFTER the installation of Windows XP Home edition?

  There are 2 versions of BIOS; One for Vista and one for XP. Generally, the update of the BIOS must be made before the instillation of OS but you can also try to do after installing XP. In both cases, the update of the BIOS would be possible.

  > If I decide to go back to VISTA using the recovery CD, I must restore the bios/firmware?
  Generally, Yes! Without the good BIOS features like the FN buttons could not work properly!

• No USB 2.0 driver available for HP p7-1254 (for the installation of Windows 7)

  P7-1254 HP Desktop
  Windows 7 Edition Home Premium 64-bit

  I replaced my hard drive and do a clean installation of Windows 7.
  I already found the drivers from hp.com site, and I am familiar with the order and the process of installing the driver on this machine.

  My problem is; HP seems to offer is more USB 2.0 for downloading drivers.

  USB 3.0 drivers are all that is available for the HP p7-1254.

  So I have two questions:

  1. can I install only the drivers USB 3.0 on a Windows 7 computer, and wait for my USB 2.0 devices to work?

  2. in the case, where can I download drivers USB 2.0 for this machine?

  Thank you in advance for any help or advice you offer.

  Hello:

  Windows 7 has the USB 2 drivers included with the operating system.

  USB3 drivers will only install the drivers for the 3 USB ports.

  You must install the amd chipset driver and restart the computer before installing other drivers.

• Why Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit installs not Windows updates?

  I am not able to download and install Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit windows update.  This Gateway laptop has always been able to quickly and easily install the update by clicking windows update.  However, since the introduction of Windows 10 it has been a lot of your time trying to install updates.  I had this same problem with Windows 7 too.  Never before there was no problem for the two operating systems.  Installation of Windows updates has always been easy and fast without any problem.  Running the troubleshooting isn't good and hunting error codes has been unproductive.  What the hell is happening?

  Hi Joe Cool1:

  'Check for updates...' crashes and slow Windows updates currently affect the SP2 for Vista and Win 7 SP1 users, and I doubt it's a coincidence that Microsoft has ended mainstream support and only provides support for these two operating systems.  The evidence points more to a problem with the Windows Update Agent (WUA Vista, C:\Windows\system32\wuaueng.dll v7.6.7600.256 has not been updated since June 2012) and the problem tends to be more prevalent on computers with slower processors and a limited amount of RAM.

  There are step-by-step instructions posted on 16 June 2016 wire m #l's updates doesn't work do not, he has been looking for updates to the hours which should speed up Windows Update for both for Win 7 SP1 and SP2 for Vista.  The instructions were for users of Vista, so when you reach step 4 just use the appropriate links of Win 7 on the page Web of Dalia http://wu.krelay.de/en/ (Win 7 x 64 if you have 64-bit Win 7 OS;) Win 7 x 86 if you have a 32-bit Win 7 OS) to download packages update stand-alone correct (.msu files) for missing Windows kernel mode driver (Win32K.sys) updates on your Win 7 machine.

  You can also find some useful tips in entry 9 August 2016 Microsoft MVP Woody Leonhard on his Woody on Windows InfoWorld blog titled 2 easy steps to speed up scans of Windows 7 update that includes detailed instructions for the use of circumvention of Dalai to http://wu.krelay.de/en/.  Woody's workaround for Dalai to speed up Windows Update to users as well Win 7 SP1 and SP2 for Vista.

• X100E clean installation of Windows 7

  I got a X100E nearly a year ago and have never been happy with all software additional "junk" that came pre-installed with it.  Of course, there are a few useful elements, but as many professional users, largely, I would prefer a new installation of Windows so I could install programs I've found work well experience.

  I currently have a problem which will require the relocation of this send me Lenovo CD and it would be the perfect time to get the installation clean I need.  The problem is, it is an image for the entire disk that will leave the machine in the State in which it has delivered initially including all the unwanted bloatware.

  It is not really possible to uninstall all the unwanted stuff - I tried this several times quickly after getting the machine and had serious problems.  All the stuff is installable and even the elements which should I uninstall do not correctly.  After putting both of the factory, two or three, I dropped.

  How can I get the new facility, that I'm looking for?  I can see in the pages of support that is not an unusual requirement and all the extras are available for download and installation if necessary so where can find details of how to do a clean install?

  
  

• E521 with advanced format ST500DM002 Player - do I need a SATA driver separated during the installation of Windows 7?

  Hello

  I have an E521 with 2 GB of Ram and X 2 processor. I want to install Windows 7 on a record nine of ST500DM002 (= native 4K advanced format). It will work without hassle, or will I have to install a SATA driver during installation? If Yes, which? I can't find the necessary information for the main card.

  Thank you, Andre

  Hi Andre,

  As you would expect, you will need the Windows 7 drivers RAID so that the installer of Windows recognize the drive. Our buddy rdunnill forum explains how to do this HERE. He included a link to NVIDIA support site where you can download the driver.

• New installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on Sony VAIO key OEM

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Sony VAIO VPCEB27FA, who is essentially a Middle East of the EB series model. The PC is literally loaded with all sorts of versions possible assessment and bloatware and it absolutely killed any computing experience. Windows 7 starts at more than 3 minutes. Yes, I timed it actually to see how long it takes for Windows load up before you can start actually using my computer. My old gateway desktop which is in reality a P4 and has Windows 7 installed on it opens in less than 45 seconds and is good to go. So I definitely do a clean install on my laptop to clean up all the UNWANTED horrible. But can I use the Windows 7 key on the back of my laptop after a clean install? I go to download the English version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit of Digital River. Currently, my laptop has the same version that is the English version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit as mentioned on this page from Sony

  http://www.Sony-Asia.com/product/vpceb27fa

  Thank you

  PS: - You can see for yourself on the page of Sony in the specifications of the software INCLUDED, how trialware and bloatware been installed by Sony on this machine. I hate Sony for this and I will never buy a VAIO again in my life.

  There is no need to separately download OEM or retail of Windows 7 RTM installation DVD ISO, as the release of Windows 7 installation can be easily converted using simply the correct product key (for example OEM_SLP product key can convert an installation of Windows 7 at retail in OEM version), as issued by the OEM product keys has a different basis of the retail product key. For ISO of DVD images, the only difference between a Windows 7 RTM retail ISO and ISO of OEM of Windows 7 RTM is in position of EI.cfg file [channel], which specifies the sales channel to retail or OEM.
