Installing WXP on Satellite A200 - 1P8

Hi all

I am trying to install Windows XP Home edition on my new Satellite A200 1P8
But my hard drive is not recognized, now I looked on the internet and I have no Intel Storage Manager but I need drivers now for my Hitachi HTS541616J9SA00 (82801 HBM / HEM ICM8-M) so, where I can find these?

Thank you very much

I have an external floppy drive that works.

Hello

The Intel matrix storage manager contains the SATA driver that is needed to recognize the HARD drive and install XP on your laptop.
You can use the external floppy drive floppy to include the SATA driver in the program XP installation, or you can create your own XP CD which includes the Intel Matrix Storage Manager too.

I had some problems using the external floppy drive too and that's why I chose the second option. I used nLite freeware program to create an own XP CD with SATA drivers. It s really great. You must test it too.

I think this could help you.

Good bye

  • Installing WXP on Satellite L30 - 10Y

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite L30 - 10Y (PSL33E 03L031EN) (about 2 years), it is running Vista (installed come) and I'll replace it with XP pro SP3.
    I already have the drivers (from the Division of driver Toshiba), but I wonder if there are any issues that anyone knows how I could run in this case?

    I installed OS to my house several times, built offices with absolutely no problems whatsoever, but various articles I read there seems to be a bit of a 'ball game' different when it comes to laptops?
    Also I have Vista disks more so if XP will not install I can not simply go back to Vista.

    Tips, advice or warnings very welcome...

    Thanx

    Hello, my friend

    To be honest, I don't understand what you mean with this error message. The fact is that report of people here on the problems with the installation of Windows XP Home edition because the HARD drive is not visible when installing WXP begins.

    To install Windows XP edition family on this laptop you need Intel Matrix Storage Manager and you can download it from the Toshiba support page. When installing Windows XP Home edition begins to press F6 and load this driver. The HARD drive will be recognized correctly and you can continue the installation of Windows XP Home edition. The problem is that you need USB floppy drive. You get one somewhere?

  • Bad BIOS installed on the Satellite A200

    I had one laptop Satellite A200 and I downloaded and installed an incorrect BIOS. Then I restarted my laptop and it is empty. I researched and downloaded many programs, but I don't have a USB floppy drive. I downloaded phlash16, created an autoexec.bat file and follow all directions I've read on different post of different Web sites.

    Can someone please help me to recover my BIOS using the virtual floppy drive to USB and can someone please give a process step by step on how to reflash the BIOS. My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A200. Please give me a BIOS for my laptop.

    Please email me [email protected]

    Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi mate

    > I had a laptop Satellite A200 and I downloaded and installed an incorrect BIOS. Then I restarted my laptop and it is empty

    I'm afraid, you will need to contact the ASP in your country in order to solve this problem of m

    Toshiba driver page contains no traditional BIOS updates but only focus on the Win BIOS update, this means that you will not be able to update the BIOS by using a floppy disk because you don t have a traditional BIOS version

  • WXP on Satellite A200 - 1 M 7 - now I have 4 unknown devices

    Hello!

    I had problems installing Windows XP SP2 home edition on my Satellite A200 - 1 M 7.
    Vista comes with this laptop, but I decided to go back to the roots.
    Downloaded all the drivers available for this model and install.

    Now, I have 4 unknown devices in the hardware monitor.
    I guess I know what it is because I still don't see things working:
    1. audio card: update done BIOS, installed kb888111 and kb835221 and sound driver. No change.
    2 Bluetooth monitor: installed the driver but also no change.
    3. WiFi: the same thing, I can see the window manager of Atheros Wi - Fi, but it does not work (I am sure about that because I have another laptop nearby, and he sees my Wi - Fi router).

    Does anyone have these problems and how to solve it?

    Very simple procedure ;)

    The Satellite A200 - 1 M 7 seems to belong to the series PSAE3E and you should switch in this series to download all the drivers from Toshiba.

    Before you install the try XP updated the BIOS to the XP version (at this time v.5.30 - victory)
    Then check install Instructions txt file and install all THE drivers Toshiba and tool using the order mentioned in the present document.

    Please note that Windows XP should be updated to the State and several important fixes must be installed directly on the Microsoft site.
    So I would recommend checking the MS Update site and install every difficulty.

    By the way;
    Bluetooth monitor is not the installation of the driver the driver Portal Toshiba BT BT:

  • Cannot install on my Satellite A200-130 BT stack

    Hello!

    I recently downloaded BT stack driver for XP http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/directlink.php?snr=2 - 5.10.12 Windows 2000 / Windows XP / Windows VISTA but could not install it on my Satellite A200 (PSAE0E-00Y019RU).

    If you are 100% sure that your laptop is BT all you need to do is the WLAN switch on IT and after doing this, you should be able to use the FN + F8 key combination. Test it!

  • Installing WXP on Satellite A300D 11s

    Hello, all.

    This question has already been asked not so long ago, but I would like to know more details. Do I need to use the Intel Matrix Storage HARD drive driver for installing WXP on Vista? Judging by the manufacturer of CPU - AMD - I have not. How the problem of 'visibility' SATA then be resolved? Or not be no problem at all?

    If you have already answered a question the same origin, can John, you please respond to mine? Maybe somebody could answer?

    What other problems can I face to replace Vista with the good old Windows XP Home on my A300D?

    Thanks in advance.

    How about you, the use of the nLite?
    nLite may include the SATA driver in XP operating system CD.
    So you n t overall 104MB just need only take the view the SATA driver files and include it using a nLite ;)

    Google for nLite and you'll get more details!

  • Re: Can I install WXP on Satellite L500D - 12 p?

    Yesterday, I received by Satellite L500D - 12 p, new with Free DOS. I would like to install Win XP, so when I put the installation CD of XP, came a few blue windows, something like BSOD, error screen with some kind of information that there is no space, memory to install. Then I heard accidentally than laptops usually cannot save hard drive, so I'll need some SATA and USB floppy or something like that the controllers (don't know which means that!).

    So, I wonder how to install Windows XP on L500D 12 p?

    Grateful, best wishes!

    Before you install Windows XP Home edition on your new laptop check if this model of laptop is WXP supported.
    I mean if you can't find the drivers of Windows XP Home edition and all the important tools and utilities there is no sense to start the installation of Windows XP Home edition.

    By the way: you created installation of recovery DVD?

    I got my winxp pr satellite. And I found all drivers xp, including shortcut keys for my mobile on www.toshiba.nl.
    But now no longer works FN - F6, F7, F8, F9 & F10. These are the functions to configure the brightness, wireless network, power & utility Zoom mouse pads.

    Hello

    For the use of the FN functions you need some Toshiba designed and utility tools. Unfortunately they are not available yet. Obviously Toshiba didn t start support WXP A200 but I hope it will happen soon.

  • Installing WXP on Satellite L300 (PSLB8E)

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L300 (PSLB8E) laptop computer and I want to install Windows XP, but unfortunately, I still get an error message after you start the XP CD (XP Setup has encountered a problem, the Setup will leave...)

    Is there a solution?

    You use the Microsoft disk to install Windows XP? Then you need the SATA drivers to install in AHCI mode or the consistent value in the BIOS but so will lose some system performance.
    In the Forum are already a large number of discussions on this subject, in order to check the threads here.
    And take a look at this: http://195.182.196.33/kb0/TSB8602DB0001R01.htm

    However, it could also be that the CD is noisy or something else. Try another disc.
