Installing OS on Tecra 8200

Hello world

I really appreciate the help with installing OS on HD on Tecra 8200. The original HD crashed so I bought replacement HD to an add-in in the local newspaper. This disk should be formatted but otherwise empty. After I drag the drive into the Bay and put the power, "GRUB loading stage 1.5" appears on the screen and then any time the word "UBUNTU" and then a long message beginning with: "cannot start X server...". "etc. (probably something to do with Unix).

My Tecra has no floppy drive, just DVD player and I can't find a way to make the machine begins to read the Windows 2000 installation CD in the DVD player (or perhaps the HD should be reformatted first but where to start?).

Thanks a lot for any help or suggestion.

Hello

to install Windows 2000 simply press the 'C' button when you see the Toshiba logo at startup. This button causes to boot from the cd and you will be able to install windows.

Good weekend and if you have any questions...

  • No sound from Port Replicator NetDock after installing XP on Tecra 8200

    After a recent accident, I re-installed my 8200 using XP SP2. Now I have no sound from the Netdock. All other functions of the DS seem to be OK.
    I downloaded the latest drivers Yamaha for XP SP2, but still no sound.

    I get no option to change analog output on the control panel of Yamaha. Device Manager lists system Yamaha DS + XG Legacy Sound (WDM) and Yamaha DS - XG PCI Audio Codec (WDM) as well as other codecs, gane and multimedia control device port.

    I want to get her back through the Netdock.

  • Tecra 8200 Boot and install os!

    I have a tecra 8200, cd player no longer works, so I bought a new... The floppy driver has also been broken, but I just bought a new floppy driver external usb. Everything works fine on windows, but I want to reinstall my OS, but I can't boot from the external floppy drive or a cd player... How can I solve this problem? I edited my bios to boot from the floppy drive, cdrom and HDD, but it does not start, the cd is bootable etc... How can I solve this?

    Hey,.

    When you have changed the former in an ew reader, what was the same model or a better? As SD-R2002 or
    DVD PA3014E-1DVD player Kit
    PA3015U-1CDD 24 x CD-ROM Drive Kit II
    PA3068U - 1 CD 1 CD-R/RW Drive Kit
    PA3073E - 1 CD 2 CD-RW/DVD-ROM Drive Kit

    These disk are supported by the Tecra 8200 series. Another Selcet Bay drive can also adapt!

    It can also help to do a BIOS update unless the old one was not installed!

  • Tecra 8200: I can not install Wlan for XP driver

    Hello
    I can't find the driver for windows xp wireless. I have Tecra 8200. I try to install a large number of drivers from the official page of Toshiba Tecra 8200 for but the drivers do not work.
    If anyone knows how I can install wireless in my tecra 8200, let me know.

    Hello

    First of all, I want to say it's the Tecra 8200 has not been delivered with Windows XP and you will find not all Wlan for XP drivers on the Toshiba site.
    I checked and there are only drivers for W2k, NT and W98SE.

    But as far as I know the device was shipped with the standard ORiNOCO specification Wlan miniPCI Wireless LAN Card: 802. 11 b
    In this case, I recommend looking on the net for these drivers.

    Unfortunately, that's all I can suggest.

    Hello Dario

    Well, first of all, you must check the BIOS settings. As far as I know the configuration of the device must be set to the OS installer.
    Then it s advisable to reinstall the operating system. In this case, you must use the CD recovery or the original version of Microsoft Windows. All the necessary drivers, which you can download from the Toshiba site

  • WiFi on Tecra 8200 after installing XP SP2

    I am running XP service pack 2 on a Tecra 8200.

  • Tecra 8200 wireless issue

    Well, this is probably a stupid question, but I have a Tecra 8200.
    I have to buy something else for wireless work?

    Hello

    This question is not stupid ;) as the Tecra 8200 was equipped as an option with the LAN card internal minPCI. This could be a bit confusing.
    So in some units of Tecra 8200 WLan is already included in some Tecra s minPCI WLan card must be installed first to use WLan technology.

    You should check your device manager if a WLan module is listed in the network adepter
    If it s already registered then you n t need a WLan card.
    If it s are not, then you must upgrade the machine with the minPCI wireless network card or with a USB WiFi key.

    AFAIK the PA3070U-1MPC wireless mini-PCI card may be compatible with your laptop.

  • Update disk on Tecra 8200

    Hello

    I own a Tecra 8200 with the latest version of the bios 1.6. I want to spend my 10 GB hard drive to a bigger! I searched the whole forum and google to find some information about the maximum size for this laptop, but there is different information. Sometimes the answer is 30 GB max and the other user has 60 GB hard drive installed. I hope someone can help me and give me some information on what hard drive I can buy a use in my tecra 8200! So thanks a lot this time.

    Welcome them

    Reinhard

    Unfortunately, I can just confirm that there is no public document on the possibilities of upgrade. I know with certainty that some laptop computers Tecra 8200 (probablu models) are delivered with discs hard 30 GB. because of that I'm sure you can use the 30 GB HARD drive with no problems.

    If you want more that I recommend to buy compatible HDD 60 and try to use it. If something is wrong you can at any time send HDD to your local dealer. Probably you have 14 days to send the product back if not satisfied.

  • How to change the resolution on my Tecra 8200?

    I have a Tecra 8200 laptop, but without any of the original entry with this portable CD system.
    I installed Windows XP and you want to change the display resolution of 1400 x something to 1024 x 768, but after that, I have these black stripes, like a frame around the image.
    How can I put this in place? I can't find a keyboard shortcut!

    Second question: I have the problem that the screen is very dark ductless battery charger. I know I should use the power management standby, but I should install Toshiba other programs before installing the Power-Saver tool?

    I hope that there is someone who can help me and understand my English!

    Thank you

    Hello

    I found some info that Tecra 8200 comes with two different screens:
    1024 x 768 pixel TFT color display and
    Color TFT 1400 x 1050 pixels display.

    I assume you have the other. If you are using a resolution more low you can't wait for the perfect illustration and please use the native resolution. Please use the correct driver and you can find it on the Toshiba support page.

    Robin's right. Before you install Power saver utility install common modules first. Saving settings using, you will be able to adjust the brightness of the display to the maximum level.

  • Questions Tecra 8200 (Extension power supply and driver display)

    I have a Tecra 8200 and works with Win XP. No I have a few problems:
    First of all, under Win 2000 and power only on batteries, you can select the speed of the CPU and the brightness of the LCD screen with a program called "Extension of power." Under Win XP doesn´t work "Extension of power."
    The next problem I regnosize ist the graphics card driver. Normally, if I press "Windows desktop on this monitor 'erweitern'" (sound of the German word, I Don t know what we call in English (my English is very bad ;))), superior this text I can click on a text called "Use this device as a primery monitor".) But I can´t click on it.
    I hope you can understand me and help with my questions.

    (If some people from Germany or German-speaking people here in this Forum are? You can send me an email ([email protected]) or message (ICQ number: 271944753)

    Hello

    On all laptop computers from Toshiba, Toshiba Power Saver is installed and this application is responsible for control the modules and CPU cooling.
    The brightness of the LCD screen, you can set with the additional application called FN keys.
    The FN + F6 or FN + F7 combination controls the brightness of the screen.
    The Extension of power unknown to me.

    I put t know what you want to do with the use of this device as the primary monitor, but I suppose you want to set the external monitor as the primary monitor. Am I wrong?
    As far as I know it of not possible to set the external monitor as the primary monitor.

    You can switch to the external display or you can use extended desktop on the second monitor but it of not possible to define as main screen.

  • My Tecra 8200 is stop/freezing sometimes

    Hi @all!

    My Tecra 8200 laptop runs with Windows XP.
    Problem is that it freezes, which means that it does not react to the keyboard and the mouse is blocked for a minute or 2. I tried to delete any powercontrols and installed "Speedfan" to cool components, but nothing did. The tech Support told me to change a setting in the bios. Let the OS set up components, and then reinstall the operating system. It did not help.

    I would be gratefull for any suggestions.

    THX in advance,

    Michael

    Hi Michael

    you say that the keyboard and the mouse is stuck for a minute or 2. This means that they continue to function normally after that? Or are you to shut down and turn it on to make it work again?

    Alternatively, you can try to reload the OS with Restore tool! You can find accesssories!

  • Slot 0 of the Tecra 8200 memory does not work

    I installed 2 256 MB (toshiba original) cards, but only is recognized by the bios. When I change the slots (between the 2 cards) the problem is the same. Thus, it seems not to be a defect of memory. What can I do to get the two cards to work (be a motherboard failure or a special setting)?

    I have two mothers in Tecra 8200 with the same problem, it is a defect of material on the card. Only thing to do is to change the motherboard (I got last year a new roundabout 75 US$ in internet auktion) or work on with only 256 MB.
