Impossible to downgrade Satellite L305-S5957 for XP with integrated SATA drivers

Hey everybody. You just bought a L305-S5957 today with preinstalled Vista. I tried to install it on XP with the drivers slipstreamed SATA, but it doesn't seem to work. I always get a BSOD after everything loads.

I am trying to install the version of XP is Chinese simplified XP with SP3. I tried to "slipstreaming" twice using two different SATA drivers with nLite: v8.9.1023 (last ones on the Intel site) & v8.0.0.1039 (those available on the Toshiba site for my model). Both times by selecting the appropriate chipset (ICH8-M & variants) for integration.

However, two SATA drivers not and don't seem to not work. What happened after that pilots of trying to load during the installation of XP, I get a BSOD. The BSOD reads: 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000). It seems to be the typical BSOD due to the failure to load the SATA drivers for AHCI mode.

So, what suggestions guys do you have? Should I eventually use "(IDE) compatibility" mode in the BIOS instead of AHCI?

I really have no idea why it does not work. Many models in the past, I have integrated SATA drivers successfully. It gives me a hard time.

Thank you.

Hello

I guess you used the Toshiba page for download.
I took a look on the US page and found the Intel Robson Technology Driver for Windows XP (v8.0.0.1039, 31/10/2008; 22 M) and the installation tool XP F6 ACHI (v8.0.0.1039, 2008-10-31, 230 K)

What have you tried?

As I know that Intel Robson is a complete package that contains the SATA drivers as well but the F6 ACHI XP installation tool should contain the same files.

However, you should compare the files in both packages!

Usually the installation of Win XP using settings AHCI and SATA drivers should always work but of course, you could install Win XP using compatibility mode without the integration of the SATA driver.

PS: maybe you can try to install Win XP in compatible mode. Then after installing XP, try to install the package Intel Robson and opt for the AHCI mode after that I have not very good if it will work but it s m worth a try!

  • Satellite L305-S5939 - Dual boot with Linux

    I recently bought the notebook title mentioned for my studies in computer programming that will require me to dual boot with Linux.
    I decided to use Ubuntu and their instructions for upward the dual boot parameters are simple.

    However, I heard from people having problems with the settings of the BIOS on other brands when said is finished.
    Before I embark on this journey, I want to just make sure that everything is set to avoid problems.

    Unfortunately, I have not found much information about Dual boot with Linux and Toshiba L305s.
    Other than the basic principles of what I need to do before installing?

    I think that a dual boot on the Satellite L305 should not be a problem because you can do it on every laptop or PC.

    If you want Ubuntu you should take a look on Wubi

    It of pretty easy to use and in my opinion the best way to install Ubuntu on a system dual boot.

    Thank you

    Yann

    Hello

    Satellite 2450-114 is a former, and in my opinion, it would not support the SDHC card using even the latest drivers why?
    Because the card holder is not in the software/driver, but this is a simple physical limitation (card reader)

    So I suggest to use an external USB card reader these drives are cheap and easy to use

  • How Downgrade Satellite A100-411 for Windows XP Home edition?

    Hello

    I just bought this laptop soft which has Windows Vista installed.
    Unfortunately, I have to install Windows XP, but in the download section there is no drivers yet for this specific model series called PSAARE.

    Are there other drivers series there?

    Hi Gerhard

    I m surprised that you want to downgrade the OS for XP because most of the people here in the forum ask the Vista upgrade and Vista drivers!
    However, I think that most of the devices or parts are the same in the books series A100 and in my opinion you should try to use drivers from another A100 series
    Before installing the driver compare the portable devices and if another computer laptop uses the same device then you can also use the driver

  • Re: Satellite C660D - 10 d - problems with updates of drivers

    Greetings from Greece

    We bought a toshiba Satellite C660D - 10 d. It came with windows7 64-bit.
    After the windows installation and updates of windows updates, that I entered toshiba for updating readers, some of them was not installed.

    Then, the internet was very slow so I did a Hijack this scan to see what is happening.
    I discovered that many services that had to do with system32 is missing files.

    So first, I can post a HJT log for you, so if possible you can explain why this happens and you drivers that I could not update the list?
    I have also another question to u... can you please tell me how to work the bluetooth on the system?
    I hope you understand my questions because my English are not so good,

    Hello

    If the automatic driver update didn't work properly, then try downloading the drivers only manually and try the update again.
    You can find all the drivers on the European driver Toshiba page.
    But why update drivers if laptop running ok? I think that it s is not necessary if you have no problems.

  • Problem of storage space satellite L305-S5962 HARD drive when installing XP

    Hello

    Last week, I ordered two TOSHIBA Satellite L305-S5962 for my children and finally happened yesterday.
    I was so glad that I found all drivers XP needed for it on Toshiba USA website, however something weird happened when I went to install XP over there.

    It came with preloaded Vista and while under Vista, I checked the HARD drive space it is said about 250 GB (240 - ish), but during the installation blue screen boot XP it read C 131 GB only partition.
    So, if you round up to about 130 GB, where the other 90 GB's?

    This problem has happened to these two Toshibas, and read the two HDD substantially the same.
    In Vista, it reads close to 250 GB, but when installing XP blue screen (once I turn off the AHCI setting in BIOS) it reads at 131 GB. Is this some kind of driver issue? or to issue OS with AHCI?

    On the Toshiba site there are two HARD drive drivers, are a .exe and the other a .zip file.
    I tried both in the XP installation CD of nLite, but it does not help.
    It still reads GB 131, so now I have no idea what to do, or maybe I have something wrong during the splicing of nLite?

    In any case, if anyone has some insight on this problem, please let me know.

    Thank you!

    -G.P.

    P.S. Here is the link to site from USA, for XP SP2/SP3 drivers, HARD disk drivers.

    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/modelContent.jsp?CT=DL&OS=&category=&MOID=2350214& rpn = PSLB8U & modelFilter = TOSHIBA + Satellite + L305-S5962 & SelCategorie = 3 & selFamily = 1073768663

    Even once, if someone has seen, thank YOU!

    > I checked disk space HARD it is said about 250 GB (240 - ish), but during the installation blue screen boot XP it read the partition C 131 GB only.

    The HARD disk is partitioned into 3 partitions.
    The first partition contains OS preinstalled; Vista
    The second partition contains the image of Toshiba HDD and the last third partition is hidden. It s a small partition created by Vista and it contains the backup files. These files can be used if something goes wrong with Vista OS or if Vista needs to be repaired.

    So I guess you've seen only the first partition that contains the operating system Vista

  • Re: Satellite L300 - how to reinstall the SATA drivers?

    Hi all

    I have a L300 I downgraded to XP. It runs with the SATA controller in compatibility mode and are sent here a lot, it's slow.

    I read you need drivers intel for her and so I downloaded the and down them and had an error "your computer does not minimum requirements.

    Tried in both safe mode and got the same error.

    Now I could try to use nlite and I've used it before, but the file I have is an executable and not an inf and files related to a driver, so I don't know how to add it to nlite. I'd rather do not re - load again if possible.

    So the simple question is how I install the AHCI SATA drivers so I don't have to run in compatibility mode.

    Thank you

    Yes, the restore CD installs everything you need in a single step.

    The point is that the Toshiba Recovery CD is not the same as an original CD of MS Windows. The restore CD contains an image. It s a Pack that included OS Win, Toshiba drivers, utilities and software tools extra.

    So, using the CD recovery will install all the applications mentioned, as well as the SATA drivers ;)

  • Satellite P100-400: need SATA drivers to install Win XP

    Good evening

    I would like to know if it is possible to give me a link with the SATA drivers for the laptop that I specified on the subject of the topic.

    I ask this because I would like to change Windows XP MCE, Windows XP Professional SP2 and for that I want to format the hard drive and install the operating system.

    BTW, a few days before, I checked the temperature of the processor in my laptop, and when it's 90% it loads reached temperatures as 90-100 ° c!
    It this normal, so high temperature? I checked with CoreTemp, I heard it is a good software to use with Core2Duo processors...

    I'll wait for the news
    Thank you.
    Best regards.

    Hello

    As far as I know that you need not all SATA drivers. Put the CD in your laptop and start the installation of the OS. With the help of facilities CD you can format the whole HARD drive and create clean partitions. After completing download and install the drivers, tools and utilities Toshiba support page. All that s!

    On the temperature of the CPU, I can't tell you much, but if the laptop works well you should not be worried about it. Just make sure that the laptop is placed correctly on the desktop and aeration is free.

  • Can I downgrade my Satellite Pro P200 for Windows XP?

    Hello

    I bought my Satellite Pro P200 (PSPB7E) a week ago and I love it. I have an unused XP license, so I would like to downgrade.

    Is this problem? I don't see xp for a Chicony webcam drivers or the HD-DVD player.
    I'd really appreciate some feedback. There must be someone out there who has tried to do.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    Of course you can downgrade the satellite Pro P200 for Windows XP.

    When installing XP, you need to install the Intel Storage Manager. It is a SATA driver that is needed to activate the HARD disk.

    Regarding the webcam driver.
    I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and the Chicony webcam driver is certainly available.

    The HD DVD driver is not necessary because the Windows XP must use an own ODD driver.

    > I just need an insurance to someone that it won't hurt my system in any way, cause I heard some friends saying to compatibility mode eats the hard disk and slows down the PC that you use a path former system of 1998.

    Compatibility mode means that SATA HDD controller will not work with performance SATA (faster), but this option should emulate the IDE controller.
    In this case the SATA drivers would be unnecessary. But the HARD drive could run slower
