• Installation of Windows XP on Satellite Pro P200

  Hi guys,.

  I have a problem installing Windows XP Home SP2 (listen Slip) edition in my new Satellite Pro P200 with 2-120 GB hard drives. The vehicle currently has windows vista professional. I followed this link to a similar question on this site: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OS FullName = Windows * + XP + Professional & lang = eng & strOSs = 44 & submit = Go % 21 and created disk Intel Matrix Storage manager so that I could use "F6" to install the RAID drivers during the installation of XP.

  I got to the point where I was able to recognize the hard drive and I was able to select the partition where I wanted to install WXP. Once the NTFS partition has been selected and formatted, Windows XP Home edition Setup prompted me to insert "Intel Matrix Storage" diskette into the A: drive. I have this drive in my floppy USB drive.

  However he didn't even read the disc. Hard drive never turned on when I pressed the enter"" key. It seemed as if the installer froze, however I was able to push "F3" to exit the installation program. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? Is the USB problem?

  Help, please!

  I really put t understand those who wait and wait and wait for a solution instead of search here in this beautiful (forum) knowledge base for similar topics:

• Installation of Windows XP on Satellite Pro L300D-136

  Hello

  I realize that this question is very similar to those posed elsewhere on these forums. I tried after the solutions proposed elsewhere but were unable to do anything at work.

  I'm trying to install XP Pro on a Satellite Pro L300D 136, which is currently under Vista.

  I tried to get into the BIOS and change SATA compatibility mode, but I still get a blue screen of death when booting from the installation disc. Reading elsewhere on the forums, that I understand that I have to use nlite to include drivers SATA on the installation CD, I'm not sure how to find out what drivers I need. Number of threads talking about MSM from Intel, but my machine has an AMD Athlon processor. Does make a difference? Where can I find the necessary drivers in the download section of Toshiba?

  Thank you in advance for your help, this is the first time I tried to replace a windows with another OS...

  Yes, it makes a difference.

  For laptops equipped with AMD processor (they don t have an Intel chipset) you need the display driver.
  In the display driver package are the SATA drivers you need.
  You can find it on the Toshiba site:

• Installation of Windows XP on Satellite Pro L20

  Hi all!

  My problem is with a Satellite Pro L20.

  My hard drive broke so I replaced it. Now, when I try and install windows xp pro on the new hard drive, it does nothing. First of all, I put the disk it starts to load and say to support on enter to launch xp installation, R to repair windows or F2 to exit but when I press ENTER, nothing happens if I press R, it starts to look for windows in order to repair, but no windows system cannot be found because it s not been installed but know someone or have any good suggestions on how to get windows installed.

  Any information would be most appreciated.

  I could also just add that when the computer starts first and it s on the first boot of the bit with the Toshiba logo we have 2 options F2 and F12, none of them work when I press them and also when I pressed r in the window xp installation you should be able to type exit, and then enter to leave but some type of keys and some don't but be4 just broken hard drive it typed very well no problem, if it is the problem cos I can't press on enter how fist to solve the problem of keyboard?

  Thank you once more for the reading of my problem.
  Kind regards
  Dave

• Need driver sound Windows XP for Satellite Pro A200

  Hi, I need audio drivers for windows XP.
  I searched on the web page to toshiba, but the audio drivers are not working. After installing this driver this message appear when I open a sound:
  "Driver of DirectSound incorrecto. Instale los correctos o select otro en the config device controllers. Code of error: 88780078 "

  Please, I need the REAL drivers for XP...

  Also, I would like to download the XP on Satellite Pro recovery DVDs, thank you.

  First of all it s important to know which model you have exactly-> PSAE1, PSAE4 or PSAE7

  After that I might give you some Tip If you have downloaded the wrong driver or drivers are actually available for your type of computer.

  With regard to the recovery DVDs: it s not available for download because Toshiba does not provide these images on some servers or elsewhere.
  If you want to recovery media, please contact an authorized service partner and ask them recovery CD/DVD.

• Installation of Windows ME on Satellite Pro L20

  I need for the program to install windows Millennium Edition on my new laptop, but when he starts (during the installation procedure) search for devices it crushes and just stop.
  What can I do? I tried to update the BIOS but still the same after.

  I really put t know what you can do, but I really don t understand why you buy the laptop latest designed to the latest operating system available on the market and then try to use the older operating system. I hope you know that there is no support for older OS.

  In my opinion, much better and cheaper option is to buy second hand laptop and install the earlier operating system. With more Ram, the older unit will run fantastic.

  The second problem are the drivers and Toshiba tools that work well with me. Where you find them? You won't find them on the official download page of Toshiba.

  In any case, good luck and I hope that someone already try to install ME on the same unit.

  Good bye

• XP installation LAUGH on 32 Satellite Pro A200 laptop via computer

  Hello

  Can anyone help? I try to install 32 laptops (Satellite Pro A200) through Services of Installation Windows 2003 Server remotely. I had problems with network cards and now have these working by adding pilots in a $OEM$, $1, drivers, network card and record the thought that it might be easy to use the same solution to install the drivers for the SATA controller. How wrong could I be! I'm now pulling my hair out. The machines have the drivers installed in the same way ($ $OEM$ etc.) in a directory marked sata. I used the drivers from the Intel - extracts on floppy disk and copied from there site. Whenever I try to recreate the image, I get the same error "Windows does not detect hard drives" and it drives me crazy! I edited risstnrd.sif, textsetup.oem etc etc nothing works.

  I found a link on the German Toshiba site to download the drivers in this situation, but the link is quite slow, I tried to download these drivers now three different places (3 different accounts of ADSL) and each begins at about 36 k per second then decreases until bytes per second and then fails. (It's only a 21 MB file!)

  If someone managed to deploy these laptops via RIS? If so can you please let me know how you got it done and what drivers you used?

  Thank you very much

  Hello Mark

  I think LAUGH installation complicated theme and I'm really skeptical anyone will be able to help you. If you have time, try using the advanced search and check the RIS results as search terms.

  Otherwise, you can create your own recovery DVDs and use it for the installation of the OS. For the recovery procedure, you need 20 minutes.

• Satellite Pro A200 - cannot install Windows 7 cause lack CD/DVD driver

  Hello, I have a Satellite Pro A200, PSAE4E-046018N5 and I am trying to install Windows 7 but I can't go to step one because it is not found a driver:
  A message box saying: required A driver of currency for the CD/DVD drive is missing. If you have a driver on floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.
  -What to do?

  CD-ROM is a HL - DT - ST DVDRAM GSA - T20N ATA, the actual driver have version 6.0.6002.18005 (date: 2006-06-21)

  Best regards
  /Peter

  Hi Peter,.

  Try you to an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If Yes, please try a new and clean Windows 7 installation. It work?

  Another question: your CD/DVD drive works properly or it appears with a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager?
  In your case, I would try to remove the drive from Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After that the drive will be recognized automatically.

• Satellite Pro A200 - Fn keys does not work with Windows Vista

  Hello

  I own a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E and a license to retail for Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition (with SP1) is installed.

  Before installing Vista, I have updated the BIOS to the latest version available on the Toshiba site ([http://it.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?service=IT]).
  BIOS version is now 2.20 - WIN32 contained in this file: [http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20080404121735.zip]

  After the installation of the operating system, I installed "Value package" ([http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/vap-20080109135106.zip]) that contains the "utility Flash Cards". In my understanding, the installation of the "value added package" should allow the use of Fn keys.
  This doesn't seem to be true or not true.

  Here's what's happening.

  -Prior to installation of the 'value-added' package, all Fn keys did not work.
  -After installation of the "value added package", if the process of TCrdMain.exe is running, all Fn keys do not work.
  -If I remove the startup TCrdMain.exe and I restart the PC, only a few keys Fn function (Fn + ESC, Fn + F1).

  There is no way (or I have not found a way) for all keys Fn works.

  Someone knows how to fix this?

  Thanks in advance,

  mme000

  I am not sure, but it may be because of the SP1. I installed Vista Ultimate on A200 and stuff all listed (drivers, tools and utilities) from Toshiba support page.

  Contains your Vista DVD facilities SP1 or you install on your own? If you install Vista Ultimate Edition (without SP1) and all the stuff on the Toshiba support site order Instructions of facilities.

• Satellite Pro A200: RIS installation fails - BSOD

  Hello

  Someone has already tried to use RIS for laptops Satellite Pro A200 ETA-1 image. I'm getting a BSOD which I think is due to a bad driver (downloaded from the Toshiba site).

  Also, can someone tell me where I can find a telephone number for technical support (UK), they seem reluctant to make available on their web site.

  Concerning
  Paul

  Hello

  satellite Pro A200 has the controller Intel AHCI-build. It is not included in Windows XP. You will get a bluescreen 0x0000007B proving that XP cannot identify the controller and has no driver for it.
  Here is a brief description of how add that driver to your RIS installation:

  1 copy all the single files from the Storage Manager Intel ICH - 8 M 32 - Bit floppy in your directory$ $oem $ \Textmode.
  If this directory exists you must change your txtsetup.oem file and add/extract the AHCI driver of the file txtsetup.oem of the F6 floppy in it (do not overwrite the txtsetup.oem file in this case!).
  If this directory does not exist, you can use the supplied txtsetup.oem file numodified.
  Download the floppy F6 Storage Manager here: http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/stormng-20070827133046.zip

  2. change your Winnt.sif file (or what you named your answer file) and add or change the following sections:

  [MassStorageDrivers]
  "Intel(r) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E/M)" = oem

  [OEMBootFiles]
  iaAhci.cat
  iaAhci.inf
  iastor.cat
  iastor.inf
  iastor.sys
  License.txt
  Readme.txt
  Txtsetup.OEM

  If you have any questions do not hesitate!

  Any suggestion?

  Also check if the option disable touchpad when USB mouse is connected is not checked. That are in the control panel-> mouse-> device settings

• Installation of WLAN Driver Satellite Pro A200 to WXP

  Hello

  I installed Windows XP SP2 for a client on Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7E) and installed after is spoken in the German support hotline all drivers as in the test - instal .txt but I don't get the Atheros WLAN card to work.

  It is an ar5bxb72 of Atheros, but no way.
  I get all of the drivers in this list only works with the hardware, but not the card WIFI but I installed it in the list.
  Someone has a tip for me?

  Welcome them
  Marco

  Hi dude

  Are you sure that the laptop was equipped with the Atheros WLan card? According to some information that I found in the internet, this laptop comes with an Intel or Atheros WLan card!

  I checked the page Toshiba provides an Intel WLan Atheros Wireless Lan Client Manager and drivers. The Wireless Lan Client Manager is not the driver, but only the tool that helps you to configure your wireless network card and gives you more than the functions integrated configuration of windows configuration options.

  I recommend to download this portal Toshiba WLan WLan driver:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

  By the way; If you use XP on this laptop preinstalled Vista you will need to update the BIOS to version XP too!

  Greetings ;)

• Satellite Pro A200 - SD card works only on Windows 7

  Hello

  I tried to install Windows 7 rtm downloaded from the MSDN site. Once I installed it, my Satellite Pro A200 works fine, but the built in SD card reader does not work, that nothing happens when I insert an SD card, it is not recognized.
  Can anyone of you help me?

  Thank you very much.

  Francesco.

  Excuse for my English.

  Hello

  Have you installed a driver for the SD card?
  OK you will not find a Windows 7 driver yet, but most of the Vista drivers are also work on Windows 7.

  Normally you need a driver for the SD card, so you may notice yellow exclamation in Device Manager?

  What types of SD cards are you trying? In the user manual, you can find a list of supported SD cards.

• Windows 7 & Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7)

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7). I recently upgraded my laptop to
  Windows 7. Where can I download the drivers compatible with Windows 7?
  I already have the Web site check toshiba and I do not find anything.

  Thanks in advance

  I agree with sascha.
  I think that Win 7 drivers must be released in the near future, because Windows 7 drivers have been published for other series
  You can also visit the Toshiba page we obtain some drivers Win 7 for Sat A205 series.
  The A205 is very similar to A200.

  See you soon
