• Dual boot win xp and win vista

  I use a computer with 2 partitions on my hard drive.  The first one has vista 64 bit on it... I would install xp 32 bit on my 2nd partition to create a system dual boot, but everything I find says to install the oldest operating system first.  When I tried to install win xp to Windows vista, it wouldn't let me.  Then when I tried to boot from the xp disk, the installation blue screen came, but after loading drivers, he jumped a blue screen (the one which means that your computer has crashed) whenever I tried.  How to install xp now?

  Vista is the 1 MS OS where you do not have to install the OS (XP) more older 1st in a dual-boot.
  But, in a dual boot XP remove Points of Vista all the restoration.

  Read the Guide.

  Come on first, site of the manufacturer of your computer, check to see if your model computer has XP drivers available for it...

  If the XP drivers are not available for your model, forget the idea.

• Satellite M70-193: installation of the graphics driver - issue minimum requirements

  I can't install the driver on my M70-193, this meesage is coming "this system does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software. Setup will close. What can I do? Thankss...

  Hello

  Very strange?  :|
  How have you tried to install the graphics driver and what graphics driver you tried to install?
  You must use the on the Toshiba page.

  I recommend you to first download the graphics driver.
  Then go to Device Manager and remove (uninstall) the graphics card in the system.
  After restarting again the OS should automatically find the new device and ask start the installation.

  In this case, you must follow the installation procedure and install the new driver downloaded.

  Good luck

  Good bye

  If you try to insert two cards at the same time that would be normal given that the card reader is bound to a single channel of USB. It all depends on how your computer has been configured when it was built.

  If you remove the first card and insert another card it is possible that you are not just right-click on the map in file Explorer and ejecting the card before you remove them.

• HP Pavilion dv6-1140ea. want to make the dual boot for Linux also

  Hello

  I just bought one of these laptops. Is really very nice. I am a software developer and want to ensure that the software I write also works under Linux.

  For this reason, I want to make my system dual boot. That means I'll need to wipe the hard drive and install from scratch.

  I am really disappointed that the laptop came not with Vista disk (s), and that the HP software I want here (assistant wireless and all that is installed to make Vista works with the card reader, lightscribe DVD, etc.) is not simply written on a separate disc.

  So, can someone please tell me the best course of action once the hard drive is to get the Windows partition as it is now with Vista and HP utilities on? I want to get free or very low cost disks that I already paid for this software.

  I really hope that it is not my option to create recovery discs. Therefore, your time! I tried their creation and halfway through the process of verification of DVD 1 drive (about an hour in the process), he said verification had not.

  I'm looking for a simple, fast and cheap way to do.

  Thank you

  PUK.

  You are welcome.

  An alternative or a safety net in case where everything goes as planned. You have a C:\SwSetup folder that contains all your driver/app installation programs. Copy on dvd before making any changes. Use your Dell drive to install Vista, using the license key of the laptop on background to activate. Use your dvd with applications/drivers to complete.

• Windows XP - Dual Boot for Satellite U300-134

  Hello. I have read other responses to this problem of the addition of Windows XP (as a dual boot) but it still doesn't work. My laptop (I bought a few days ago) comes with Vista, and I bought Windows XP Home Edition - OEM. I got the intel matrix storage manager on a floppy USB drive, but now it gives a message "the txtsetup.oem file is not found." I have XP because it turns out that my work WHAT VPN does not work under Vista (I found that out AFTER I bought the computer unfortunately).

  Can you please tell me what I should do next to get this working? And any other surprises I might encounter? I looked around the internet but cannot find the answers to this. I tried nlite, but have not managed to get this working but either.

  Thank you.
  Ian

  Hello

  There are different reasons why you can not install Win XO on the U300.

  First use the right Manager, Intel Matrix Storage Manager?
  Laptop you seems to support the Intel GM965 + Intel ICH8M chipset!

  Please check this thread!
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=26040

  The user Markus77 has listed the details!

  Also please don't format the HARD drive or create any installation AFTER the partitions of the Intel Matrix Storage manager. This would remove the driver already installed.

• Dual-boot for DOS and Windows 7.

  I use W7 Home Edition. 2G Ram. 500G hard drive. (tons of room left)

  I just correctly partitioned the hard drive and formatted the small partition in FAT32 so I can use BACK 6.21 as operating system.

  I'm trying to re - create the implementation that I had when I was on XP. Otherwise said, when the machine is booting, a screen appears that gave me the choice of either running in Windows XP or in the BACK. So far i cant even install BACK the machine to the three diskettes BACK 6.21 lights. The BIOS indicates the 3 1/2 "floppy drive is enabled.  The boot sequence has been defined for the floppy drive be the first start and the (No. 1, startup disk) disk is in the drive. Windows 7 boots up just as usual and totally ignores the BACK installation disc. Anyone know what I am doing wrong or that approach I should take. ?

  p.s. I have a spare hard drive I use exclusively for BACK if only I could get BACK installed on it and knew what to do at the BIOS level.

  Sometimes simple solutions are the best :) glad to know what you need to do this.

  Don't forget that starts change according to what operating system drive letters, you can even add a disc of Windows 8 and start to learn that. One of the main things to do is label the disks according to their function as this does not change even when the letters do.

  Please indicate the best answer than the answer.

• VMware VS Dual boot for diferent two OS

  I'm sandbox with Planning, Essbase and HFM on a new machine, that I ordered... The machine is an intel I7 3610QM smart Passmark @ 8442... that has hyperthreading 8 GB of Ram and a 750 GB hard drive. comes with Windows 7
  
  I have not had much luck with the VMware all... I try VMware workstation 9 and other virtual mahcines... with not much luck... then my thought process is to define a dual booting with an operating system - Windows 7 and and other OS for my sandbox by using server 2008r2
  
  every thought

• Dual boot on Satellite A200 with Vista-XP?

  Computer details: * Satellite A200 PSAE6E... *.
  The laptop came with Vista... I managed to install Windows XP (with new drivers etc...) and it ' s working fine * BUT * after reboot, Acronis OSS does not recognize Vista and the computer starts directly with Win XP only. (I need two BONES...)

  I'm looking for a lot of instructions now of hours * dual boot *, but everyone takes for granted that I have an Installation DVD for Vista... I don't!
  Toshiba came only with the product recovery CD, so all the instructions of MBR and solutions that even Microsoft gives me (E:\boot\bootsect.exe/nt60 all...) it does nothing!

  Is there anyone out there?
  Please... If you can give me no hint at all... it would be just a miracle... Thank you

  Hello

  have you heard of 'Vistaboot'-> http://www.vistabootpro.org/

  A program that allows you to change the bootoptions, so if you want to change the boot settings, then try this program.

  Otherwise, you can also consult the "UBCD4Win" program which is a live cd of windows xp with many tools, you may find something to change the Boot Manager.

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro P200 - 17 c: Win XP won't load - installation of the SATA driver

  Hello

  I have a satellite pro p200 - 17 c I've had good years, allways worked without any problem.

  Last week when I booted the laptop, windows won't load and I find myself safe mode selection screen. No options whatsoever me to windows loading, I tried F8 and still nothing.

  I tried the restore cd that reimagee the drive but I get the same thing, I tried a new hard drive, once again the same.

  But if I try to load windows from an OEM to install that software does not because it is a sata drive and there is no floppy drive. I have an external floppy drive I use, but it is not known now.

  Any ideas or suggestions?

  Hello

  Go to BIOS and set it to default settings.

  In this case the SATA mode must be on AHCI. In this case the SATA drivers are required to install the Windows operating system. But as much as I know that Windows 7 already contains the SATA drivers if usually you don t had to add SATA drivers while OS installation the installation program.

  However, here is a nice HowTo document that helps you add SATA drivers for Win XP installation disc.
