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

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 SP3 on a Tecra M3
I am rebuilding a Tecra M3 model PTM30A-1DD002 for a friend. I installed Windows XP Professional, but whenever I try to install a service pack, it appears to hang.
I tried SP1 & SP3 and whenever it starts gets about one minute in and then just sits and does nothing. I left the machine for a few hours and it is not just anything. On SP1 it says it's "backup files" and said SP3 'audit Product Code '.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
AFAIK Tecra M3 comes with Windows XP Home SP2 Professional edition so for installing WXP use Microsoft WXP drive with already integrated SP2 or SP3 installations.
You have the original disk Toshiba facilities?

Hello
I recently bought an SSD to accelerate my HP DV7. So I tried to clone my previous 1 TB to my 250 GB SSD hdd, but it seems that it's quite simple. :-(.
I have created the exact same partitions (with the same size, orders, except for my main Windows partition type of course being given my SSD is much smaller) on the SSD as on my old Hdd. After that I made an exact copy of each 3 partitions (HP Recovery partition, system and tools Hp) but instead of copying the windows partition, I left a void on the SSD as the size of the Windows on the old hard drive partition is larger (the data) than the available size on the remaining on the SSD partition. I thought that I could boot on the SSD drive and start the restore process to install Win7 on the empty partition. But when I restart the pc, it does not seem to recognize the boot SSD partition, he prefers not to say "No operating system found".
I also tried to activate the 3 partition directly (which is the recovery partition) to directly on boot as the partition, but it did not work either. The partition to activate before it was the 1st partition (which is the SYSTEM partition), but he has not worked either.
Can someone help me do that cloning to work?
FYI, I did the cloning and the creation of the partition using fdisk and dd on ubuntu.
Thank you.
Hi Wawood and Mista B,.
Thanks for your comments I have a previous message, but strangely I have not found trace of the previous message, maybe I forgot to press the 'POST' button:-s.
In any case, I was thinking that I understand your remarks Wawood but my goal isn't specifically for the windows on my new SSD partition (not interested in reducing the windows partition, it is just a statement), it was ok for me to any re - install from the recovery partition, a windows 7 from scratch.
And I'd say Mista B by saying that it would have been stupid HP do not allow someone to use the recovery on the same pc partition, just because it has a different hard drive.
Finally, I managed to do what I wanted to for those who are interested (HP is not so stupid after all:-p), here's the method I used to clone my hard drive of 1 TB to my 250 GB SSD and keep all the native HP (recovery, hp_tools, System) partitions with a 1 TB hard drive works correctly.
So what I have is:
-J' put the SSD as a second drive on my laptop (I guess it should work in the same way if connected by USB)
-J' I started my pc and downloaded the EaseUs partition master
-J' ran the program and began by doing a thorough cleaning of the SSD
-J' made a copy of the system partition of my hard drive of 1 TB to my SSD
-J' made a copy of the partition my hard drive of 1 TB HP_TOOLS to my SSD
-J' made a copy of the recovery of my 1 TB hard drive partition to my SSD
-J' created a new empty NTFS partition in the remaining partition
I'm done with the same exact score as agenda in my 1 TB HDD.
1. THE SYSTEM
2 NTFS empty
3 recovery
4.HP_TOOLS
After that my SSD was not bootable, because the MBR has not yet been copied.
Then I started a live CD of Ubuntu and I installed boot-repair and he ran.
I chose the advanced options and set set the mbr and boot from the partition 3.
I then put the partition recovery (partition 3) as being ACTIVE.
I removed the hard drive of 1 TB of the laptop (to avoid any error during execution of recovery which ends with the recovered 1To:-p) beeing and replaced it with the SSD.
I then rebooted the laptop and it starts directly on the recovery partition. I finished in the recovery strategy (I could not choose the recovery from an earlier point in time given that the windows partition is empty (no windows backup)).
I chose over the full restore, the slight recovery with only OS and drivers and it does the job of recovery. Now that the of what I write this resolved thread :-).
Hope this helps some people out there with the same questions.

Impossible to install Win7 PRO 64 on clean Machine
Well, I have this problem, but in a rather unique situation.
Have a HP 8200 workstation I know works - I have formatted a SATA HDD & installed - set the BIOS to make the reader of CD/DVD boot priority. The Machine recognizes the presence of the hard drive & I can do display a message "Press any key to boot from the CD/DVD" - it is said he had try to bbot from the CD & then it just displays the message "BOOTMGR is missing, press Ctrl Alt Del to restart", and this with a new PRO 7 64 drive is in the drive. The CD blinking like crazy, but it's like he's going.
Also tried to get the installation to start with a XP installation CD older - same thing. Is there any chance the "Bootmgr" there need is a function of the BIOS?
I try to do a clean install of the operating system, but cannot get the Windows installation to start - Help!
Its likely the installation media is damaged or scratched. I would try to get a new copy and try again.

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.

Tecra A10 with wrong source IP address ping responses
Hello!
I have problems with my network connection.
After installing Win7 pro answers tecra A10 ping on the lan with 192.168.0.239 port, but he 192.168.211.36 the DHCP server.
In Wireshark on tecra A10 I don't see demand for IGMP but no answer.On the other PC the answer comes a false IP (and of course a wrong MAC).
If I disconnect the lan cable a stop responses.
If I boot in Linux, everything's fine.So what software changes IP address?
I see no answer in wireshark, I think it might be something around the network card.
Internet is OK, but I can't do any remote.Someone at - it an idea?
If your problem is the remote control only, right?
If I understand right you don t use original Toshiba recovery image so no one here Don t know exactly what have you installed and you do exactly.
If your LAN/WLAN card working properly and you can connect to your router, this proves that there is no hardware problem.Have you tried the same thing with the original preinstalled recovery image?

Impossible to install, Z710 power management win7 64 because "Windows cannot verify the Publisher of this driver software".
I pushed the 'install this driver anyway", but the material was not yet recognized after install/reboot.
So I installed instead the Lenovo Energy Management software worm 7.0.3.4
It works, but I don't know if this is a problem for my becouse of incompatibility with Z710 battery system.
Can you suggest a driver digitally signed for my Z710 or can I use the version 7.0.3.4 without problem?
Thank you
