• Tecra M5 - new installation of XP SP3 - no sound

  I performed a clean installation of XP SP3 on a Tecra M5, downloaded all the drivers from the Toshiba support site, installed in order (according to the install.txt) and that all work sound bar.

  I tried the two drivers available on the download site, both give the same result - windows is pleased and says everything works fine, but still no sound. I tried the (mute) key and its appears under the name now. Volume (on windows) is complete with all other controls. All controls are NOT dumb. I also tried the handwheel of volume at the two extremes, still no sound.

  I looked on the internet and found other users having problems with the sigmatel and XP SP3 drivers. But have not been able to find the right ones for this model. The machine is a Tecra M5 (PTM50E).

  Someone at - it ideas? A download of a compatible driver SP3 would be good.

  See you soon.

  Yes. Remove SP3 and use SP2 supported. I checked the facilities list for this model of laptop and on the first place is classified - Windows XP Professional SP2 ServicePack2.

  I don't know that the drivers on the Toshiba download page are the same drivers as in the recovery image. This means that they are probably not tested with SP3. To be honest, I always use SP2 and I'm happy with it.

• Installation of XP/SP3 / requests sfc/scannow command

  I have a genuine copy of XP SP3 installed on my computer (performed by a computer technician), but previously, I don't have an XP installation CD and I didn't know the details of the product key.

  I managed to get the 25 product key - Belarc figure both Magical Jelly Bean (!) Detectors of key Windows gave me exactly the same code.

  I also managed to get a XP SP2 installation CD authentic with COA + keys used - haven't seen any ones SP3 and Microsoft is no longer distribute a XP software. It says distribution only with a new PC - is this correct?

  Will be a computer technician can reinstall XP SP3 using the this and updated - SP3 will still be available for download now that support has ended for XP?

  In addition, you kindly confirm that this CD that will allow me to make the sfc/scannow command. ; When I tried to asked me repeatedly for the XP installation CD.

  This CD SP2 / SP3 computer difference leaves me unsure.

  A modern operating system would be better I know, but I'm not able to get a new computer at the moment.

  Your CD of XP sp2 is an "OEM" version rather than a retail version, but if you have the correct key, it works perfectly.  The problem with OEM installations, is that they are linked to the computer on which they were first installed... then once installed, it cannot be installed on another computer (and replace the motherboard is considered as "another computer").

  Service Pack 3 is available for download and will continue to be available in the foreseeable future.  If you have a new installation using the SP2 CD, download you the sp3 and install it manually (you must have sp3 before Windows Update will strive to give you the post-sp3 updates).

  That said, it is easy to create an installation cd of sp3 by a process called "slipstreaming".  You can do it yourself, but any competent computer technology needs to know how to do it.  See http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/slipstreaming-windows-xp-to-create-bootable-cd/

  You can even create an installation CD which includes sp3 as well as all the critical updates that came after sp3.  See http://xdot.tk/

  There are a few caveats to keep in mind before installing sp3:

  Before installing sp3, read this article--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950717

  If your PC is a HP Pavilion and Presario Media Center and has an AMD processor, this hotfix must be installed before installing sp3-->

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?CC=UK&LC=en&DLC=en&softwareitem=PV-60484-2

  Install SP3 for download--> http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=24

  ignore the text which says that it is for network installations and also ignore the text informing Windows/Microsoft Update If a single update of a PC.

  Regarding the use of sfc/scannow command which will require an installation CD is the same service pack that is installed on the computer, BUT using sfc/scannow almost certainly NOT help you in any difficulty that you are likely to encounter.  Despite the many Web sites that you can see who is advised to use this command, simply is not what people think than that, at least for XP.

• Installation of the SP3 for XP now crush the latest system updates or interfere with programs like IE 8?

  In all other ways my XP system is up-to-date, with the exception of SP3. I never needed before. SP1 and SP2 have been installed at the time when they were new. Now SP3 is required to upgrade to some new programs. Installation of the SP3 at this late date crush the latest system updates or interfere with programs like IE 8? I don't want that my system is back to older parameters which are now outdated. If the system settings are changed, how do I know those who?

  No, this does not disturb.

  Hello Ingo

  Last days, we read more similar reports on the various problems after installing SP3. As far as I know that Toshiba has faced similar problems after SP2 release and updates were offered. The fact is that SP3 has a negative influence on the different drivers and Toshiba has designed tools and utilities.

  For now, Toshiba has not any update and we need to see what will happen in the future. I always use SP2 and do not have similar problems on my laptop satellite.

  Or you can live with it and wait for update or restore BONES on time earlier and remove SP3.
  I see no solution at the moment.

• No WiFi after installation of XP SP3 on Portege M100

  I have a used protégé M100, on which I recently did a clean install of Windows XP Pro (SP3).
  Unfortunately, as a novice, I didn't save my drivers.

  I've been on the Toshiba site and that you have downloaded everything for this model (M100 protégé Centrino), I printed the "content and the order of installation for windows XP" and load all the drivers at best in the suggested order.

  However, some items were not available to download, or I did not understand the references.

  I downloaded and installed the Atheros client utility and the customer, as well as Configfree utility aironet Cisco, but could find nothing to match the description "wireless driver".

  Perhaps because of this, or not? customer utilities above and ConfigFree (connection doctor) as well as some other diagnostic software downloads tell me I have no installed... wireless LAN hardware but I know it's there, and I never got it out!

  Can someone tell me what I can do?

  Hi George

  I think that you just have not installed the right driver WLan.

  The Portege M100 was certainly equipped with a wireless network card internal minPCI and you should see it in the device under network card Manager. It should appear as an unknown device (if no driver has been installed) or a Wlan-Intel/Atheros/Toshiba/Cisco card.

  Always it is that there are different models of the Portege M100 with different internal minPCI WLan cards and I think you used the incompatible driver.

  Please check the single WLan drivers published on the page of the Toshiba driver and check if you allow your internal wireless network card.

  In addition, you can use the Toshiba WLan portal to get the latest drivers for the Atheros/Intel cards.

• Faced with the installation of XP SP3 and XP SP2 on HP mini 210

  Hello

  I followed the steps on my computer, HP mini 210, which was completely unusable:

  (1) Mini Partition Master tool used to boot the system.

  (2) remove all partitions, including HP recovery and everything.

  (3) create a new primary partition NTFS and label c.

  (4) restart the system with the bootable XP SP3 or SP2 CD.

  (5) Windows copies all the files and go to "Start Windows"

  ((6) I select one) to install a new Windows XP

  After that XP is not able to identify the partition on the hard drive. It says no hard drive detected or something it starts and asks to press F3 to exit.

  I tried to enter F9 at startup, and it does not show the hard disk; I mean that the HARD disk is not damaged or corrupted.

  Can you get it someone please let me know what to do?

  Hello:

  You must integrate the NM10 chipset Sata driver controller that I zipped and attached below, then XP installs fine.

  Info on how to integrate the driver, please read the guide at the link below, read the Intel section, and read the document that is "slipstreaming" all drivers from Intel.

• Installation of XP SP3 without internet availability.

  I'm trying to install Xp service pack 3. The PC currently has service pack 0. I have no internet availability. Service Pack3 wants to install service pack 2 or service pack 1. How can I get the service pack 1 or 2 to install on the PC? I downloaded service pack 1 from the site on a memory stick, but the installation wants to connect to the internet. Is there a version of service pack 1A that does not need to connect to the internet?

  Thank you.

• Stay programs XP SP2 after installation of XP SP3

  I am running XP SP3 and have the following programs from XP SP2 remains: .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, 2.0 & 3.0 SP2 as well as MSXML 4.0 KB927978 936181, 954430 & 973688. I can remove these programs from my install programs without harmful effect?

  They are not programs, they are the runtimes (MS .NET Frameworks), a parser (MSXML 4) and updates of security (KBs927978, 936181, 954430 & 973688) for the XML parser.

  If you want to uninstall what you have listed the question is, when they were installed?
  If they have been installed before Service Pack 2 has been applied, then you can now uninstall .

  If they were installed after SP2 has been applied, then you can uninstall SP3 with all required reboots, uninstall the lot of them, restarting, reapply SP3 with all the required reboot.
  Please note that MSXML 4 SP2 will be no longer supported after April 2011. You will need to install MSXML 4 SP3-

• Log on problem after installation of the sp3

  Hi there forgive me if this is old news, but I just bought an old laptop for children. The seller has installed xp pro top with IE 8.

  I installed the latest java, W. Media Player. I had a browse through updates and he said that auto updates can not be read if my system is up to date. So I thought that I should install SP3. Once this is done I did the reboot and start-up of the machine re I got the newspaper of the administrator on request of password. When I bought this machine and it works, he never requested a password and went directly to the screen, probably because it was only a single account. the seller told me that he had installed a hard drive cool and a new copy of XP pro. There is a sticker on the back of the machine activation key.

  I tried many combinations of passwords, including the sellers name, leave blank and just pressing ENTER. tried Ctrl alt del all resulted in nothing.

  I contacted the seller and he said that he never put a password and therefore cannot (or will not help) I looked on the web for some ideas, including starting in safe mode, but the info it says it will ask for a password, but I am. I am now locked out of my machine. Help, please. Thank you

  If I bought a used computer, no matter who previously owned the
  first thing I could do with it would be to reinstall the operating
  system itself. You don't know how the computer has been maintained,
  which has been improperly installed, what's missing, what virus and
  There may be spyware, etc. I would not live with someone
  other errors and problems, possibility of kiddy p0rn, etc. and I
  would not recommend anyone else to do.

  Your choice of course, but in my opinion, you're playing with fire if you
  do not reinstall Windows properly.

  Thanks for the reply.

  You are welcome. Happy to help you.

  To do a clean install, what I have to buy a new version or I can just a xp pro disc and reuse the key at the back of the machine, provided that they are ok.

  If you have a product key on a sticker, it's an OEM version. You can
  use the disc to a friend, if the sound is also OEM. Try to find a friend with the
  same brand of computer.
