Installing Win7 on satellite Pro L450D

Hello

I just received a Satellite Pro who has been completely erased hard disk including the hidden restore partition. How can I get windows 7 on the hard drive to make it work again?

I bought a genuine copy of windows 7 from the store, but it gives me an error message when you try to install.

Any help gratefully accepted.

Before you begin installation OS set the BIOS default settings initially.
What message you see on the screen?

  • Cannot install Windows XP Home on Satellite Pro L450D-12 X

    Hi people

    I have been using Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D-12 X. But because he of been running very slow, I decided to put windows xp on it.

    So I put the drive in a two set windows xp and when he gets two the part were I need to press on enter, a blue screen comes on. I checked the laptop and its all ok, I even took the HD set windows xp upwards with her on some pc and it works fine.

    But as soon as I put the HD in my laptop it won t charge up are anything... IF anyone can help me with this, it will be a great help.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to two read this.

    At first, I must say that your laptop is designed for Win7 and maybe you should continue to use Win7. Problem is that laptop with the factory settings is quite slow but it can be changed. What you need is to optimize Win7 preinstalled. Check out this forum and you will find many threads with good description and detailed what we can do about it.

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop comes with WIN7 32 BIT PROFESSIONAL & XP DVD.
    You have problems when you try to use this DVD WXP that you got with your laptop?

    Hello

    I'm trying to re - install windows XP on a satellite pro L450D after an incident of virus nasty but even if I changed the boot priority in the BIOS to CD/DVD in the first place, the windows in the CD player disc is not seen.
    Now, I noticed that the DVD player has an exclamation mark next to it in the BIOS but I don't know what that means?

    Thank you

    > I noticed now that the DVD player has an exclamation mark next to it in the BIOS but I don't know what that means?

    Perhaps, you talk about the Device Manager but not Bios.

    > I changed the boot priority in the BIOS to be the first CD/DVD, the disc of windows in the CD player is not seen.

    CD/dvdrom was working before a virus attack? are you sure that you insert a bootable windows disc?

  • Satellite Pro L450D-12 X - Wireless card in the process of disappearance

    Hi guys,.

    So, I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro (L450D-12 X) in my possession.

    She has 8 installed inside windows (but came pre-installed with windows 7).

    The problem I face is that, suddenly, the wireless still endangered, literally as no wireless card exists - but there is a wireless card.

    I was able to fix it by reinstalling windows 8 OS. It worked only for a little while and then it disconnects / disappears. No wireless in the "map settings" icon Only the "ethernet" adapter
    Cannot search or browse for wireless network either.

    Since the fix above was not permanent, started the service that controls the card wireless among others who are associated with what this either wireless (don't remember the name) - it worked again.

    Now it has stopped. Well, I'm not with the laptop at the time, I said there and all attempts to restart the service via the phone, does not provide any solution.

    Any ideas guys?

    All responses appreciated.

    Problem is that your laptop model is NOT supported for Win8.
    What WLAN driver have you installed?
    Where did you find?

    When you are faced with this problem wireless network card is listed in the Device Manager?

  • Satellite Pro L450D-14V - scroll function stopped working

    Hello, sorry for the bad post (novice!)

    I have windows 7 32 bit preinstalled with preinstalled rescue disk program (made on the two discs). Model is Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D-14V (2 GB of additional RAM installed, was only 1 GB). It has been provided directly at BT, after winning a competition.

    When scrolling to work stoppage, it was presented in the control panel/mouse that I could click on and get parameters which is the case of the Green/horiz. Bearer of buttons are even though they in grayed out when I tried to click them.

    Since the mucking with drivers I have now that I lost the functionality of touchpad synaptics, it only has a PS/2 compatible mouse, but all I have is the touchpad, workingl still without scrolling?

    Thank you for your interest

    Sigull (Tony)

    Hi Tony,.

    Welcome here in the forum! No problem regarding your assignment, it of not difficult and we can discuss here everything about Toshiba laptops! :)

    The scrolling feature is controlled by a touchpad driver you've already written and if you have lost this function I recommend reinstalling the driver from the official site of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    On this page are two drivers listed: Alps Electric and Synaptics. You must install two drivers!
    After that, you should be able to use the new virtual scrolling :)

  • Satellite Pro L450D No. bootening

    Satellite Pro L450D running win 7, works very well Saturday night, close properly, go into start, Sunday morning, no chance.

    It gets so far into the boot, display win7 logo animated, then quickly flashes a blue screen (too quick to see) then goes back to start again, tried to repair, using the disc for win 7, gets so far and goes black screen with cursor... Tried a new installation, you can load files and then comes back to the black screen.

    No ideas, nothing what-so-ever in hardware or software. Bet that this will be expensive.

    To appreciate a few pointers

    Hello

    Looks like hardware problem, but it of difficult to say what role could be assigned exactly.
    I think you should first check the HARD disk.
    Download the tool called Drive Fitness Test and run tests of HARD drive.
    In addition, you should check the RAM modules.
    You can remove a memory module and could test the notebook with a single module.

    I think that's all what you can do to still hardware diagnostic test the Toshiba ASP should be contacted.
    Guys could test the laptop using some software and diagnostic tools and could tell exactly what s wrong here

  • Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X - reset to factory settings after formatting

    Hello

    I tried upgrading my installation of Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 ultimate. I ended up format the partition and now Windows will not load and the installation hangs right on 0%. I don't have a disc of recovery for this laptop, is it possible to access the recovery partition on this laptp to reset to factory settings or a restore CD I can order and it will work?

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X

    Hey Buddy,

    If you have already formatted the Windows partition, you are not able to start the recovery of HARD drive more. Also there is no possibility to access the recovery files and start them, so the pre-installed operating system is necessary.

    The only option you have is Toshiba recovery disc. Only with this drive, you can restore the original settings of the box but I m wondering why you have n t a. It s mentioned in the user manual you have to create yourself

    In any case, just order a disc here and be happy ;)

  • My Satellite Pro L450D starts with error 0xc00000e9

    Hello

    whenever I tried to start my Satellite PRO L450d-12 x it shows me,
    STATUS: 0XC00000E9
    Info: An unexpected i/o error has occurred.

    Have idea how to fix?
    I'd much appreciate help.

    Hello

    Can you please tell us what exactly happens when you start your laptop?

    There is obviously a problem in common between the hardware connected to the motherboard. It may be the HARD drive. Of course, it is not easy to say what exactly is the problem.

    If there is no problem for you to install OS again once I recommend you set the BIOS to default settings and install original OS that you got with your laptop. It's simple and the best method to check the operation of the equipment with the factory settings.

    If this will not help, I assume that there is a serious hardware problem.

  • Satellite Pro L450D-need fix WLAN Driver for XP

    You can compare two identical OS and hardware to be objective with these comparisons identical books.
    You use the original WXP recovery disk you got with your laptop?
    Have you noticed the same behavior with Win7 you have with your laptop?

  • Re: Satellite Pro L450D - Downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows XP

    I have a Satellite Pro L450D which Windows 7 above. I want to change for Windows XP

    When I try to install XP on laptop I get this blue screen and won't let me go to the installation process. I should go out hard drive and format it on another computer or is there another solution?
    I have no disk recovery Windows XP laptop. There is a recovery of windows 7 on the hidden directory.

    Hi djxxx,

    What blue screen, you get exactly?
    Generally speaking, it of not necessary to format the HARD drive first because this can be done from the XP installation disk.

    I guess it has something to do with the SATA option in BIOS you should replace AHCI Compatible.

  • Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X - flashing screen on and outside

    * Satellite Pro L450D-12 X flashing of the display on and outside *.

    Can Hi anyone help?

    I have a laptop Toshiba L450D-12 x, when you start the laptop, the screen is flashing / blinking on and non-stop.

    The screen turns on seconds, and it does not stop, becomes faster and faster!

    The operating system loads up, I can not connect, but everything else seems fine.

    Here is a list of what I've tried,

    1. connected to an external monitor - on the monitor, the screen does not flash, but on the laptop it is flashed!
    2 replace the cable with a new one - continuous flashing screen
    3 replace the inverter - continuous flashing
    4. replace the screen - continuous flashing
    5 reset the default settings of the bios - continuous flashing
    6. started in safe mode - continuous flashing
    7 install the latest driver - continues to blink
    8. removal of ram - continues to Flash
    9 deleted the hard drive - continuous flashing

    Please help, I don't want to replace the motherboard and then find it is not the motherboard

    RAF

    > Please help, I don't want to replace the motherboard and then find it is not the motherboard

    In my view it's hard to say what's wrong here.
    You said that if you connect the external monitor, the display is OK means (in my opinion) than the motherboard and graphics card should be ok.

    I think you should visit a next engineer downtown to get verified material sound much less expensive than buying the following parts.

  • Satellite Pro L450D-12 X - code error related to Java?

    I have a Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X on windows 7 and had it about a month. Play the games that use java to run and now it has stopped working. I also have the same problem with Adobe reader. Tonight, I tried to download and install Google earth, and once again the zip.

    I can't uninstall these programs because it gives me the same error message every time and frankly I'm about to tear my hair out.
    Error 1606. Could not find % APPDATA%\ network connection.

    Please please please can someone help me sort this out?
    No idea on the microsoft forums either and they checked and said I should ask here.

    Hello

    To be honest I have never heard of an error during uninstalling programs. Have you tried to uninstall using CCleaner for example? It is a nice tool that cleans the Windows registry and folders where you can uninstall programs different too.

    Otherwise I m of ideas maybe you have a virus on your computer, then try to run a virus scan.

    In the worst case, it s a software problem and you need to reinstall Windows.

  • Satellite Pro L450D-12 x - computer doesn't dΘmarre

    I'm looking for advice on a problem I have with regard to the commissioning of a Satellite Pro L450D-12 x.

    History:
    Unfortunately, he hit the table and not surprisingly will start.
    After external inspection it was evident was damaged during the fall and need to re - solder that has been done.

    Problem
    When the power is connected, the power and battery lights turn on as expected.
    However, when pressing 'On' switch the power light turns on for about 2 seconds and then turns off with absolutely nothing of the laptop.

    After inspecting internal connections, as well as the search for signs of obvious damage (which I did not see anything) I'm starting to wonder if the CPU fan is defective or the CPU its self as none of these turn on. Battery, hard drive and RAM have been checked and are properly installed.

    Even if the lights on the motherboard lights up as described above I also think half that a component on the motherboard was also damaged.

    I would be grateful for any advice on what to check next.

    PS Si fan is broken automatically cause the computer and not to the power upward to avoid damaging the CPU?

  • Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X at turns on

    First of all, Hello to everyone.
    I have the weirdest problem ever with my satellite pro L450D - 12 X.

    There's the laptop has not turn once when I pressed the power button, a few lights led lights and kicking in the fan for a few seconds and nothing.
    It seemed that it was on but the screen was completely empty.
    I then turned it and turn it on again and it worked as usual.
    A few days later, he did the same thing, but he did not come until the 3rd attempt it turn on and off.

    As time passed, it took more time and more time to get the thing to kick and actually start.
    There are no other problems. All of a sudden, I found myself sitting there for about 30 minutes by train to start, turning it works, but nothing works. I looked online and tried all sorts of things, but nothing has worked.

    I took apart to see if I could see all the problems, but everything went well... but as I put it all back together, it worked again - I did not move anything. I got with the laptop with a couple of days and then all of a sudden it started to do even once, until it lights all new (it did not last long this time however).

    I recently participated AGAIN and cleaned up a bit, and it's the same thing, this has worked two or three times and then denied comes on.

    What's happening on Earth?
    Why it only works for a while after I remove all the screws and look at the motherboard?
    It's as if he's happy when I'm looking at him--it's like a needy teenager, trying to get "like" on facebook.
    I can't keep opening up just to get a value of days of use out of it... It's driving me crazy.

    Anyone know what could be the problem? I have tried to format the HARD drive too.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    To be honest I have don t think that someone here in the forum would be able to say exactly why this happens. My first thought was that a problem of memory could be responsible for this dysfunction, but given that the laptop could be activated after a certain time, I suppose a motherboard or CPU issue would be the troublemaker.

    I guess there is no other method of troubleshooting to replace the affected parties and to check if the question seems once again, or could be resolved.

    Of course, if you wish, you can also visit the technician from downtown just to perform certain diagnostic tests.

    Sorry mate for this general view, but it of really difficult to talk about these hardware problems.

  • Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X - CPU upgrade

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X and I was wondering which processors 'Dual Core' support this laptop for a CPU upgrade?

    Have a read of other peoples threads, it is possible for the laptop to have an upgrade, but I'm not sure of what those who actually support. The most common dual core would be the dual core 'Stalk' However, there are many processors that go under the name "stalk".

    I was also wondering if all Toshiba L450Ds have the same motherboard etc... because they contain the same case and (mostly) graphics card

    Thank you very much

    I assume that you have already read this Toshiba doesn't support CPU upgrade and a public document on processors compatible doesn t exist.
    You can just hope that someone has an identical identical machine with the hardware platform and can offer some info on these updates.

    For best performance, you can start with the RAM upgrade. Have you upgraded RAM to max level?
