Need advice on the installation of WinXP/2000 on Satellite Pro 4270

Hello!

(Sorry for the redundancy of this topic on this forum, too.)

Please, any suspicion on this strange problem will be appreciated.

I bought a used Satellite Pro 4270, with totally empty 6 GB drive, a pretty neat and apparently well kept machine...

But, trying to make a new clean Win2000Pro installed on it, as previously successfully dozens of times on other PC machines, installation will be ending in a minute after that is to start with the 4 on setupdd.sys error!

On WinXPPro new clean install, that the procedure will be stuck in less than 10 seconds, without any error at all...

So, it might be the reason the cause?

I tried several different corrective actions on this machine and guess several reasons, the cause, for example

-the hard drive works fine on other machines and has also been fully verified and updated in shape at low altitude
-copies of CD installation I tried several all work fine on other machines
-the BIOS has been upgrade v2.70 just some time ago
-the CMOS was turned off, i.e. in default some time ago
-the machine was torn off at the minumum on audio memory, PCI, USB, etc.
-the machine must be somehow strangely, which on the BIOS or HDD?
-are there some 'weird' IDE or other driver disappeared on this case?
-tests with installing Win98SE and FAT32 will not lead to a better result, just somehow different...

Best regards

Hello Pete

It's a really bad situation. If you do clean install of the OS you na? t need any special drivers. Everything must be preinstalled when installing the OS is completed successfully.

If you have a few HARD drive replacement, you should try to use it and see if the HARD drive is certainly not responsible for this. The fact is that W2000 and WXP can be installed successfully on many other old models of laptops and because of that I can't imagine that it is not possible to do the same on your device.

Is it always that W2000 is supported for this device and you can find that page to download all the drivers of W2000 on Toshiba.

  • Question about the installation of Win XP on Satellite Pro P200

    Hello

    I have a lot of problems with Vista. First it took me a week to install my printer WiFi. (sollution: install local lpt1 as the printer, change port properties en gives a location network (computer/printername).)
    Last problem: vista give no right to copy my USB hd protable with xp files.

    Finally, I lost all hope and want to go back to xp.

    Is there anyone with experience in the installation of win xp on this laptop. And is it possible to tell me the steps that you have been taken to do so.
    Are there concerns as none have some drivers, things that do not work or problems with sata hd.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's a difficult topic-> XP on Vista machines.

    First: Yes, you can install XP on it because all the important factors are available (VGA, SATA, wireless, XP BIOS, BLUETOOTH) and that should be enough.

    Because your computer has a BIOS for Vista (I guess there a) Please install the BIOS XP first and then start the installation of XP. In the case that your HARD drive is not recognized then you need to install the SATA driver during the installation of windows XP. The procedure is described in the statement of the Satellite L40-> XP installation, so if you want to install and problems SATA (HDD, not during the XP installation), you must check the installation instructions for Windows XP for a SATELLITE L40!

    If you have additional questions, I recommend allows you to place your question here before doing something that may stop your nerves later. :)

    The link below is a guige to install a video card in your Pc.  In particular, it seems that you will have to perhaps specify the location of the new card in the bios and save this change before you install the new card - see step 4 in the guide on the link below.  If your new card fits into the PCI Express x 16 slot, you will need to define PCI Express in the bios and save the changes.

  • Guard application launch at the start of the appliance, also need advice for the implementation of network methods

    Hi all

    I'm new to the development of Blackberry and I'm writing a relatively simple application to run on 7.1.

    So far the development was interesting, I managed to create my user interface using resources online (mainly this forum), but today I tried to implement some of the network classes that I need and now I just met constant problems.

    I use Eclipse SDK 3.7.2 (the one that comes with the plugin RIM)

    First question:

    I'm not sure what I changed, but today I noticed that whenever I start the Simulator (by sim 9360) my application is started during the initial startup process. I don't think he did this before, but to be honest, I wasn't paying much attention. I think it starts at the start of the device is because I put a breakpoint in the constructor for my class from the main screen, which is hit before the Simulator happens even to the point where it is ready for user interaction. In addition, once it is ready, if I press the BB button, I see my registered application.

    I don't have it set to automatic start in .xml descriptior enforcement.

    I started this application on the HelloBlackBerry sample, here is my main method for the entry of the application:

    public static void main( String[] args ) {
            appSettings = AppSettings.fetch();
            // Create a new instance of the application and make the currently
            // running thread the application's event dispatch thread.
            HelloBlackBerry theApp = new HelloBlackBerry();
            theApp.enterEventDispatcher();
            //openConnection();
    
        }
    
    
    

    As far as I know, this is the only entry point for the application.

    More code

        public HelloBlackBerry() {
            // Push a screen onto the UI stack for rendering.
            mainScreen = new ScreenHelloBlackBerry();
            pushScreen( mainScreen );
        }
    

    Here is the method of. my class AppSettings fetch()

        // Retrieves a copy of the effective properties set from storage.
        public static AppSettings fetch()
        {
            AppSettings savedSettings = (AppSettings) _store.getContents();
            return new AppSettings(savedSettings);
        }
    

    Some of this code that I wrote myself, the persistence store cause the launch of my car?

    I tried to reset the Simulator to the factory settings, no change.

    All applications initialized during the startup of the device and then closed shortly after?

    Part 2: Need advice for the implementation of functions of network in the application

    I need to implement some methods that will retrieve data from a web service, and I also need to send data to this service. What I've read, the ConnectionFactory is the way to go. I want my application to make a request when the application is open and can check on a set interval. I didn't know exactly how to go about adding another thread for networking, I understand that network connections should not be created on the thread main event, so I tried to do this:

    The constructor of my class that implements screen (ScreenHelloBlackBerry), I use the following to create a modal dialog box to prompt the user for a username, I also try networking wire in the same segment of spawning:

            public ScreenHelloBlackBerry(){...initialize fields and managers, add it all together...then near the end
    
    //This will open the confirm dialog when the application is launched
            UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable() {
                  public void run() {
                      openConfirmDialog();
                    //start connection - Possibly broken
                      ConnectionThread ct = new ConnectionThread();
                      ct.start();
                  }
            });
    

    I don't know if it's somehow OK to do, but it seems to work for what I need. I want a user who launches the application at the prompt, and if a user switch applications, when they come back they wondered again (unless they close the app and reopen it).

    Here is my ConnectionThread:

    public class ConnectionThread extends Thread
    {
    
        public void run()
        {
    
              ConnectionFactory connFact = new ConnectionFactory();
              ConnectionDescriptor connDesc;
              connDesc = connFact.getConnection("http://www.google.com");
              if (connDesc != null)
              {
                  HttpConnection httpConn;
                  httpConn = (HttpConnection)connDesc.getConnection();
                  try
                  {
                      final int iResponseCode = httpConn.getResponseCode();
                      UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable()
                      {
                          public void run()
                          {
                              Dialog.alert("Response code: " +
                                            Integer.toString(iResponseCode));
    
                          }
                       });
                      httpConn.close();
    
                   }
                   catch (IOException e)
                   {
                     System.err.println("Caught IOException: "
                          + e.getMessage());
                   }
              }
        }
    }
    

    At the moment it has basically unmodified code from a sample that I found, I'll be retooling to meet my needs whenever I can make it work. I HAD this work to the point where, after the closed user confirm this dialog, a few moments later a an alert dialog appears with the 302 response code. I don't know what changed, but now it doesn't work at all, and if I try to scroll with the debugger, I can't past the httpCon.getResponseCode (). I've seen some mistakes earlier on "no record of service was set up", and I also had once a timeout exception.

    I'm sure I'm doing this wrong, but at the same time as I said WAS working, and now it is not. If someone has done this far, thank you very much for your time and advice are much appreciated.

    Also, should I try to start the thread of the network of the UIApplication class instead of the screen? There is currently very little happening in the class that extends UIApplication, do I spend most of my business logic out of the class of the screen and in the UIApplication class?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi all

    Just to conclude this topic for those who are interested, I found an excellent guide to the implementation of networks in applications of BB, click here for a link.

    About my application being started at the start of the simulator of the device, I found that on a device real this behavior is not complied with, and in addition, the behaviour seems to have stopped after uninstallation and reinstallation of my Simulator.

    The solution in the 2nd post won't work because the A10 has an Intel graphics card, not a Nvidia. He suggested also, modify the INF of the graphics driver, but to extract the driver (SA10B2DP.exe) file includes an installer, but no INF.

    Just look to see if anyone has any advice on how to activate the resolutions such as 1440 x 900 or 1680 x 1050.

    you mean on the external screen, Don t you? If you have an intel chipset graphic why Don t you download the drivers from the website of intel.
    Maybe it offers a resolution of the external display.

    I am about to buy a Mac Pro and after reading the discussions on the hardware requirements and configurations of different disk I'm still a little unsure which way to go. If someone could point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

    First of all this system will be used mainly for the following tasks: support of editing AVCHD (Sony HDR-XR550) and burning to disc with light, editing, creation of Web media AVCHD videos, editing images in ch & Lr. It is strictly a hobby for me, and I will also use the machice to inform the AutoCad work.

    The current system specs are:

    3.33GHz 6-core Intel Xeon processor, 16 GB (4x4Go) of RAM, Bay 1: 1 TB 7200 RPM Serial ATA 3 Gbps, Bay 2: 512 GB SSD, Bay 3: 1 TB 7200 RPM Serial ATA 3 GB/s, 4 Bay: 1 TB 7200 RPM Serial ATA 3 Gb/s, ATI Radeon HD 5870 1 GB, two 18 x SuperDrive.

    My questions are:

    1 reading the thread on the guidelines for the installation disk I intend to use the configuration of disk 4 described. If I only have 1 SSD, should I do C: D: E: or F:? My priority would be editing rather than the speed of the exporter speed.

    2. If I can stretch my budget to include another SSD once again, should I do C: D: E: or F:?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Rich,

    1. You need G.Skill Ripjaws Z F3 memory. The X version is 1155 to platform.
    2. Disk configuration
      1. C: Samsung SSD for the OS & programs & pagefile
      2. D: 2 x Velociraptor in raid0 for cache media & previews
      3. E: 1 x Velociraptor for exports
      4. F: WD Caviar Black for projects
      5. G: WD Caviar Black for the media
    3. The GPU is good enough, around maximum affordable on such a system. If you ever plan to overclock to around 4.5 + GHz and leave the memory of 32 GB, you can downgrade to a boost GTX 650 it and save some $$$.
    4. Spend more money on an extra drive is meaningless for me at this point. You have already 7 installed SATA devices, including your LG burner inside.

    If you need more power of this system, the only sensible option is a raid controller using a parity raid and dedicated, but that has consequences serious budgettary and you can use your black WD for a parity raid, because problems TLER. If you go this route, we must also invest in HGST Ultrastars disks Seagate Constellations or WD RE4, business models. So that's another reason not to get a WD Black extra.

    I recently contracted a virus inside and as he removed, however it is not good so I want to re - install Windows XP Home edition. I backed up the computer, I have a Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition disk and I have my product key.
    I put the CD/DVD in BIOS to run 1 drive and tells me that I can boot from the CD, I press a button and it loads the CD, select the option where to install windows.

    BUT! I can t go further than what windows does not detect the HD said he s not now, or whatever.

    My question is this: Please can someone me step by step instructions on how to reinstall XP and a link to all the drivers I need to make it work?

    PLEEASE!

    Hi jeff

    Here's your solution:
    1. go to bios with F2 when you see the toshiba start screen.
    2. Select the arrow to the left using the "Advanced".
    3 press down until you get to "SATA Controller Mode".
    4 change, using F7/F8, Chang [AHCI] setting [compatibility].
    5. make sure the CD/DVD drive is the first to start and F10 save and exit. computer restart when you are prompted to "press any key" press a button and hey presto as before windows will start the installation, but this time you won't get windows you said:

    Set up did not find Ant hard disks installed on your computer.

    Make sure any drive HARD are powered on and properly connected to your computer and any hard disk related hardware configuration is correct. This may involve running a manufacturer-supplied diagnostic or Setup program.

    implementation cannot continue press f3 to goto hell... uh I mean leaving the installation

    And you can continue on your installation of Windows XP Home edition.

    Hope I helped many other jeff's in the same boat. XD

    Hello

    Have you tried to boot form CD recovery Toshiba or on the original CD of Microsoft?
    The recovery installation CD should generally work without any problem.
    In addition, if you want to retrieve the unit with the Toshiba Recovery CD you will get 2 modes. Standard and expert mode.

    I guess the message because there might be something wrong with the hardware or any device. I would recommend to enter the BIOS and check the settings. You can also try the options default and safe change.

    But first try to boot from the recovery CD.
