• Windows XP installation is not possible on my Satellite L40

  I had a Toshiba Satellite L40 32 computer with vista preinstalled premium pieces. Once I managed to install XP in dual boot vista/xp thanks to vistabootpro. But my computer has been infected by a virus and because I couldn't clear it, I formatted my XP partition.

  I tried to reinstall windows XP, but in computer installation warmed me that there was a file that could not be installed and I choose to click 'ignore' and my computer started automatically on my vista operating system. I checked if it was not because my CD is not bootable, by nothing, because I use it on another computer to install vista.

  I would like to know what is happening?

• Hard drive does not work on Satellite L40 - 14B

  I have the problem with the hard drive on my Satellite L40 - 14B. disk hard single beep 0.o and system work slowly...
  Drive is Toshiba MK1237gsx...
  SMART is normal but spin retry count value is 114 100...
  10 x for help :).

  Yes, the backup data is really not a bad idea to be honest, this is the best you can do.

  I remember my first HARD drive crash. It was horrible because it happened all of a sudden.

  I heard that a low, high noise from the HARD drive and after restarting again the HARD drive died.

  As you can see this drive crash HARD could happen and it s advisable to back up the data before the death of HARD drive.

• Cannot start XP installation on Vista Home Premium preinstalled Satellite L40-139

  Here's the problem:

  I bought a new Toshiba Satellite L40-139 in Austria and comes preinstalled Vista. OK, Vista is in German, and I don't know German. But I made a choice to learn German and to start using a Vista. After a month Vista drives me crazy (no language, just for Vista) and I want to just install XP. I didn't need something more.
  I spent more then five days trying to archive this, but without success and I am disappointed, much.

  I put aside all types of teaching and I did a lot of things, but none of them helped me.
  So the problem is like this:
  I made the partition for XP, so I have two partitions as: Vista (C), (D) XP and Datas (G) and my CD/DVD (E :).
  I activated just boot from the CD/DVD, but when I insert the CD and start the installation of Vista it tells me something like this:
  Press any key to boot from CD...
  When I do that, I get a message, which is very fast where it says something like that, (I'm not quiet sure what it says because it's fast):
  Checking your configuration...
  After that, nothing happens, don't know why, I just get black monitor and CD/DVD does not work anymore?

  It's driving crazy me and I can't install XP.
  It seems that does not recognize the CD/DVD, and I tried with several XP bootable CD/s and they work on my desk.

  Can someone help, please, because I'm going crazy?

  If you have installed XP on this notebook L40 Vista you need a BIOS update to the XP version. All that s

• Does anyone has installed Windows 7 on a Satellite L40?

  Anyone done this yet?
  Driver problems?

  Hello

  I m not Satellite L40 owner and I install Win7 didn't on my laptop but I read here in the forum many threads on Win 7 and especially of all the users succeeded installing Win7 on own laptops.
  You can use the Win Vista drivers most vista drivers are compatible with Win7 and I think that he should t be a problem.

  But you should consider that Windows 7 is a beta release and there are still a lot of bugs and open security risks.
  So I would use this operating system only for some tests, but not like a normal BONE.

• Need drivers of Windows XP Home for Satellite L40 - 13G

  I need audio drivers for windows XP for satellite L40 - 13G? I try to download it from the site intel and Analog Devices Web site, but it does not work.

  P.S. sorry - but my English is not very well ;-)

  In my opinion, it takes a bit. Toshiba has begun to support of Windows XP Home for new preinstalled Vista laptops but obviously your Satellite L40 is still not on the list. I'm afraid you have to wait his turn.

• Driver installation problem Windows XP Home on Satellite L450D-11 t

  I bought a laptop SATELLITE L450D-11 t with windows 7 and I want to use a USB stick for internet, but it requires a previous version of the operating system.
  So I installed windows xp, but on this site, it is not all drivers (motherboard, video, audio, network) compatible.

  Analysis of the situation, I found the driver for audio on the Realtek site but on the mother/video card driver, I have a few problems:
  the AMD 780 G chipset and the display hardware is an ATi Radeon HD 3200. On the AMD website, I found a package with all the necessary drivers, but during the installation of the system restarted itself each time I start the installation. I opened the event viewer to see if there is an error, but nothing.
  I restarted the pc mode provvisional: he can't complete the installation, but it gives an error "Unable to open driver for tracking" or something like that.

  Is there something wrong? I forgot to do something?
  Thank you

  Hello

  Why you n t take an another USB compatible with Windows 7? In my opinion, it would be easier to reinstall the whole laptop but ok, it s your decision ;)

  As far as I know the drivers on page AMD intended for office use only, so I think that they will not work on mobile chips. But maybe the only corrupt the downloaded driver files, then try to download again.

  As I've already said, I would choose another USB key. This laptop is designed for the new Windows 7 and everything should work properly on the new operating system.

• Problem with the new installation of Windows XP on the Satellite A100-259

  Hi all!

  I have a problem with the fresh install WIN XP on Satellite A100-259 (PSAA2E).
  I already deleted the partition, formatted (NTFS) and tried to reinstall from recovery disk that initially provided with the laptop. But whenever I try to install a problem is detected (for the most part it's 'page in the nonpaged area failure').

  I also tried to install the OS directly from MS Windows XP Home Edition SP2 CD - the same problem.
  I checked the partition using PQ Magic and discovered that there are ' partition table error #110 ".» So, what I did:

  (1) delete partition-> create new partition-> format (NTFS)-> reinstall from recovery disk-> has not yet;
  (2) partition delete-> install WinXP CD original by create and format partition option-> has not yet;
  (3) delete the partition (using the magic of pq)-> create partition (using the magic of pq)-> format NTFS partition for win xp option-> check partition-OK no problems don't-> installation of original win XP CD-installation without changes-> option failed even once
  (4) delete the partition (pq magic)-> create partition (pq magic)-> format NTFS partition for win xp option-> check partition-OK, no problem-> installation of the recovery disc-> has not yet

  Whenever a different error is detected, so I can't identify the problem. I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas?

  Hello

  Seems that there are some problems with the standards of the partitions.
  A friend of mine has tried to install the OS on the recovery CD on the laptop that has been formatted with Partitions Magic 8 and the installation failed.
  It was very strange

  Finally, we have formatted the whole HARD drive using the CD original Windows XP Pro.
  We did not remove the partition but simply kicked this CD and after the configuration process spent, we formatted the whole HARD disk and install XP without creating all the partitions.
