Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C50-A-1JT

Hello

You just buy new C50-A-1JT which came with an installation of Linux Mint, I won't, because it's for my mother in law who barely knows windows, and even less to ask him to learn to use Linux.

I tried to make a bootable USB key with win 7 installation (that I would do on a normal pc).
The windows installer seems to load fine, but when I press Windows Installer, I get "a required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. »

The problem is that my laptop did not contain driver disks, so I wonder what I can do to install Win 7 on it.

Thank you
Mark

About this error message, see Microsoft Knowledge base article:

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2755139/

This problem occurs for the following reasons:
The installation DVD is removed during the installation process.
A bad quality DVD has been used to create the installation DVD.
The speed at which the installation DVD is burnt was too fast.
The DVD drive cannot read media.
The ISO file is corrupted.

Given that you don t use the installation disc but a USB flash memory stick, I suppose that the image on the USB flash memory stick file is corrupt or there is a problem with the support of USB flash memory

  • Install Windows 7 on Satellite C50-A-1JT

    Hello world

    I bought a brand new satellite C50-A-1JT PSCJGE of Romania with no OS.

    First, I tried to install Windows 7 for about one day and does not start, on DVD or USB, only Windows 8, but after I searched on this topic, I discovered that I need to change my settings to MSC Boot UEFI bios and disable the startup of the Secué.

    NOT A CHANCE. Instead of a normal BIOS I have that Setup Utility from Toshiba and I have only the option of Boot Order and Secure Boot, who don't have not helped me.

    I thought that my BIOS is outdated (1.10)
    So went on the Toshiba site and performed a search for an update of the BIOS and the only one was the following:
    [BIOS 1.30-VICTORY for a Satellite C55 - has, C50 - A: http://www.toshiba.com.ro/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?LNG=27&service=SE&selC fulltext = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 312 & selProduct = 793 4 & selShortMod = 4628 & language = 47 & selOS = 46 & selType = 4 & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & count ry = all & selectedLanguage = 47 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 90346 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

    .. but unafortunatelly, it's not available.

    So, I have no chance of getting Windows 7 on this laptop?... because I hate 8

    Many machines Win8 is supported for Win7 so, in general, you shouldn't have a few big problems. As you've written, you must first change the settings of the BIOS - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2C03F80002R01.htm

    After that restart your computer and press F12. When the boot menu appears on the screen put Win7 installation disc into the optical disc drive, select CD/DVD as first boot device and press ENTER. ODD must begin to read the Win7 installation disc and the installation program will appear on the screen.

    On this path, I installed Win7 on my U940 satellite.

    Please try again and post comments.

  • Impossible to install Win XP on Satellite A200-1BJ instead of Vista

    First of all, I had a problem than Win XP. It is not the hard drive.
    So I bought a USB floppy drive and I have solved this problem and I continued the installation process and all files copied to the hard drive (I still have the blue hear on-screen) and needs to restart installation.
    It of the problem with infinite loops of reboots without going into windows.

    Hello

    I think you need to create a new Win XP using nLite application.
    By using this software, you'd be able to include the SATA drivers (in the Storage Manager) and other files of driver and MS service packs or patches MS

    The Win XP which you try to install must contain min SP2!

    Please note that there is also a special update BIOS version for Win XP at the moment its 5, 60 - Win for Sat A200 PSAE6E.

    So you need to update the BIOS check if you can do before installing Win XP!

  • Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C660 - 26H - HARD drive not recognized

    I reinstall windows 7 on a Satellite C660 - 26H
    The hard drive failed on this laptop, so I added a new Toshiba 160 GB sata drive.

    When I try to install windows 7 I get the error message

    "no device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click ok"

    I get this when I would normally be choose which windows installation disc too. I guess I need driver sata for the laptop?

    Where can I get the driver for this laptop sata?
    Or do I have driver sata for the new hard drive?

    Any help appreciated, thanks!

    Hello

    First check to see if the new HARD drive is listed and recognized in the BIOS. It must appear on the first page of the BIOS.

    If his list, and save the changes by pressing F10 and access to the BIOS.

    I'm not very well if you need the SATA drivers because AFAIK Win 7 should already contain a standard SATA driver from m.

    However, the SATA drivers are on Intel page.
    You should look for Intel Storage Manager.

  • Impossible to install W7 UEFI on Satellite L875-131

    Hello
    I downloaded the latest Bios (6.70) for your support and flashed my bios.
    There is no way that I can install W7 UEFI on the laptop.
    I disabled Secure Boot, my USB key bootable with W7 or W7 boot my dvd properly.
    Windows shows files upward.
    Then on the 'Starting Windows' screen, the screen is stuck, nothing happens.

    My brackets are great, I have used several and when you pass the UEFI in CMS mode, I could make a correct installation, as at the end of loading, I see my scores and choose where to install W7.

    But as my only HD GPT formatted, there is no way that I can install without losing W8, and I don't want to delete all my partitions.

    I'd appreciate a solution for this problem...

    EDIT: I can also add that the installation process works very well under W8, when choosing a free for install partition.
    Windows copy all files, and then when the system restarts once again, I'm still stuck on the "Starting Windows" screen

    I would be grateful to know if the problem occurs on all satellites L875-131, or if my phone is defective.

    If anyone has a work around for this problem, I would really appreciate ;)

    Thank you very much

    _Steps to follow for the downgrade to Windows 7: _

  • I want to install Win XP on Satellite A305-S6905

    Hello.

    I want to downgrade my Vista to XP because of problems and slow down my PC...
    For example I can't download updates antivirus, games etc...

    I read in the forum that I need some kind of sata drivers and those I can do myself, but someone can help me with other drivers because I use this laptop for an hour and I know not what drivers there need.

    If someone could give me links to the necessary software, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I think that you couldn't find the right drivers XP because you didn t find on the right-hand page.
    Like you probably n t know that this series of laptop (Satellite A305) belongs to Toshiba from US and you have to find good drivers on Toshiba U.S. page!
    http://www.toshibadirect.com/TD/B2C/home.to

    In addition, if you want to install Win XP on laptop thin, you will need to install the SATA drivers first.
    The SATA drivers are on Intel Storage Manager part which can be downloaded from the Intel and Toshiba page page as well.

    But if you don t want to install SATA drivers, there is another possibility to install the XP.
    Just access the BIOS and set the compatible SATA to AHCI mode.

    That s it.

  • How can I install Win XP on Satellite U300-150 PSU30e

    How can I install win xp on U300-150 / model: PSU30e

    I try to start from the CD Win XP SP2, but don't can't detect any HARD disk.

    How can I do?

    There is no option in the bios to support SATA or IDE

    Please help me

    Hey Buddy

    You won't find any IDE or SATA settings in the BIOS. The problem is that you have not installed the SATA driver that is needed to install the XP on this laptop.

    Intel Matrix Storage Manager is the key!
    The storage manager should be included in the Windows XP operating system during the installation process using the F6 key.
    On the other hand, you could include the Storage Manager using the free app called nLite.

    Looking for a little to this forum. There are enough discussions and comments about this theme.

  • Satellite Pro L850-1DT impossible to install Win 7 driver wireless

    Please, I beg you.

    On costs to install Windows 7 64 bit downloaded all drivers wireless I can find on the site of tosh.
    No work.

    Find in this page http://www.toshiba.co.uk/discontinued-products/satellite-pro-l850-1dt/ ended
    Says spec card Atheros.

    Try reinstalling the driver atheros, it gets a little then disappears and nothing happens.
    Tried the driver atheros here too, but moved, but no functionality.

    At one point, I tried the function and F12 key on and outside, that seemed to allow some stuff of bluetooth and wireless.
    I have "Network controller" and "Unknown device" in Device Manager with yellow exclamation points.

    Heeeeellp please.

    You're right, it seems that the laptop Satellite L850-1DT was equipped with the Atheros WLan card and the Atheros WLan driver should be right.
    This Atheros card also supports Bluetooth function and what an additional driver must be installed for both WLan + BT working.
    First you must install Atheros WLan driver suite by packet filter for driver Atheros BT and battery Toshiba BT.

    Of course, all other tools like value added Package for Windows 64-bit must be installed too!

    I hope this helps.

    By the way: driver can be found on the page of the Toshiba UE driver

  • How to install Win 8 on Satellite C850 after HARD drive failure?

    I have a PC repair business and a customer gave me a portable Satellite C850-1 kN which took a catastrophic hard disk failure (just clicking from the road).

    I replaced the hard drive and tried to boot from a DVD 8 Windows, changing the order of startup in the bios, however, it still gives an error message "no boot device."

    I see no way to turn off boot UEFI, it appears grayed out in the configuration of the bios.

    How can I reinstall Windows on this laptop?

    First, you must know that the (CSM/UEFI mode) parameter must be changed if you want to install the system supported UEFI not (Win 7 and higher).
    Win 8 and 8.1 Win are UEFI capable systems and you should be able to use the option to UEFI mode.

    What about the secure boot option?
    Have you found and have you tried to disable this option?

    IS IT POSSIBLE TO INSTALL WINDOWS XP FOR TOSHIBA SATELLITE T110.
    BECAUSE WHEN I START INSTALLING XP IT SAYS SOMETHING "HDD ERROR" PRESS F3 YOU QUIT SMOKING.

    WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    Of course its possible.
    Win XP does not recognize the HARD drive due to lack of SATA driver.
    Add driver SATA during the installation procedure.
    The SATA drivers are part of Intel Storage Manager, which you can download from the Toshiba UE driver page.
