Hey Buddy, if the WLAN card is not preinstalled why you go WIFI on / off? May not work at all.

So let us first do you have installed driver for wireless network card or not. What is the status in Device Manager?

  • Satellite A200-1AD - downgrade from Windows XP Home edition

    I've read all the other different threads around the upgrade/downgrade to XP, but I have a few questions.

    1. What do I need to change the BIOS before I start to replace Vista by XP or can I wait until I loaded the base XP and then make the BIOS change?

    2. If I try and update the BIOS for XP and it crunches the laptop is covered by the warranty?

    If the 2 answer is Yes, then I'll save a step by step process that I do to change the operating system from Vista to XP. Any help much appreciated.

    Hello Ken

    All I know is some BIOS designed for Windows XP Home edition for computer series laptop Satellite A200. I installed Windows XP Home edition on my A200 but some FN keys do not work properly. Other stuff works well and WXP turns quite quickly.

    I recommend installing WXP without updated BIOS to see if there is a serious problem. If this is not the case, leave such BIOS what.

  • Satellite U400-10 has: Downgrade from Windows XP Home edition

    I got my laptop U400-10 for XP. Few things left pending:

    1. How can I get the LED on the top of the screen (and Satellite/power LED) to decrease intensity again by pressing the LED light on the top of the screen? Worked under vista. Cannot run Windows XP Home edition. Probably a Toshiba driver... but the Witch one?

    2. I get a Device Manager question mark in front of audio storage devices and mass HD. I checked the internet and it seems related to the HDMI port. But how to fix it? I can't identify the right Toshiba drivers on the page/download driver Toshiba.

    3. How can I get Bluetooth (with the standard windows drivers)? Bluetooth Monitor driver Toshiba form doesn't seem to work.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Hello

    (1.) I think you could turn on and off the LED of Illumination in the BIOS.
    But maybe it s not supported under Win XP.

    (2) some features are not supported by XP. This unit is probably the module of Robson former Turbo Memory. This material will be supported only by Windows Vista so there is no driver Windows XP.

    (3) possibly you have ONLY installed the BT monitor. It is a diagnostic utility, and if you want to use BT you need a driver of BT.
    The BT driver can be downloaded from the page of the portal of BT or driver Toshiba

  • Why the Satellite A100 PSAAN drivers of Windows XP Home edition?

    I won't work with vista all the time but Toshiba makes me use all the time because they do not support drivers for Windows XP Home edition. And I have to work with WXP because vista does not work with some programs that I need and that is not good.

    I need them immediately and I still ask why the drivers for Windows XP Home edition are not there?

    Hi Duge

    As you update and upgrade are typical in PC world and these processes have priority and are definitely looking to the future. Downgrade still isn't back. It is also important but has no priority as upgrade.

    I assume that upgrade supported for all mobile phones capable of Vista is not yet complete. I'm pretty sure that new notebook will build for Windows XP Home Edition, but it may take a little time. Be patient. You can also view other topics on this technical forum. You will find lots of useful information about OS downgrade.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Satellite L40-139 - need driver Windows XP Home edition for 'ethernet '.

    Please can you send me the link to Satellite L40 ethernet control model of laptop for Windows XP Home edition?

    Hello

    Satellite L40-139 belongs to the PSL40E series. Am I wrong?
    You can check the serial number of your laptop. It should be placed somewhere at the bottom of the unit. Check all labels.

    Anyway, the Toshiba driver European page doesn't provide XP drivers for this series at this time. Seems you have to wait a bit until all pilots to be released!

    For the only moment that two versions of the BIOS for L40 PSL40E if released.
    The BIOS must be updated to the XP version, if you want to use XP on this laptop.

    By the way; It seems that this series is supported by the Base map - TX Ethernet Realtek 10/100.
    Then you can try the LAN driver from the site Web of Realtek. Should also work.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A200-1YO - problems installing Windows XP Home edition

    Hi guys,.

    First of all I'm new here so Hello to everyone here and I hope you can help me with my problems of software.

    I recently bought a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A200-1YO provided with windows vista (which must be frank, pants and IMO too demanding for the machine) and I have a problem with vista, because some of its features do not seem to work, for example, I'm having a lot of trouble getting some of the webpages to open now, they simply hang out.

    now, I didn't install windows xp but I don't have an external floppy drive. This is not a problem but because I can use Nlite to integrate the drivers in a new ISO of Windows XP.

    The problem is that I have 4 sets of drivers: ICH7M_32bit, ICH7M_64bit, ICH8M_32bit and ICH8M_64bit. As I install Windows XP 32-bit while I'm more or less some that I have not need 64-bit drivers but when I install Windows XP by using the modified version of windows xp slipstreamed, what I get at startup is a BSD error telling me that something has crashed on my hard drive , however I can't say which crashed as the screen disappears after 15 seconds if that so I guess there is something wrong with the drivers I use (though I must admit that I'm not sure the drivers 32-bit to use)

    advice and assistance regarding being able to install windows xp would be welcome, as I said above, however, I can only use Nlite since I do not have a usb floppy drive.

    Satellite A200-1YO has a chip with the ICH8M southbridge Intel GM965.

    So you need the driver for SATA ICH8M_32bit.

  • Satellite A200-1Z3 - cannot install Windows XP Home edition

After this reboot of Windows. I tried several times but same problem.

    I put request manufacturers to Toshiba, please, please do not force Microsoft Users to use VISTA, since very heavy graphics, but Toshiba put only 1 GB of RAM in A200-1Z3.

    I want to downgrade XP, please help me how can I install XP and load the first time?

  • Downgrade from Windows Vista Home Edition to Windows XP Pro Dutch on Satellite P200-15N

    Not knowing where I really should put this... I put it in this part of the forum too :)

    So:

    Hello

    I bought a new laptop with Vista Home and two Partitions... I would like to install on the second partition "Windows XP pro" (with official key & SP2 included)! But when I run the XP Cd I get an error that the HD is not recognized... So I searched on the forum here, to see if there is a possibility of passby he...

    So what I did:
    (1) I download the "Intel storage drivers" of->
    http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Filter_Results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OS FullName = Windows * + XP + Professional & lang = eng & strOSs = 44 & submit = Go %21

    (2) I used the Floppy machine, to create a floppy disk with the necessary drivers (also from the above site)

    (3) I downloaded a copy of freeware "Nlite".

    (4) I also downloaded the additional drivers on the "Toshiba" site itself (Lan, storage,...)

    (5) I did a "Xp Pro P200-15N" card and put all the drivers... Including the Exe I downloaded from the link above named "iata76_cd.exe"...

    (6) I have made a new Win XP bootable CD with "Nlite" & added all the drivers that I downloaded and followed the procedure given by "Nlite". He made a new bootable CD (with all the drivers and .exe and .inf, etc...)

    (7) then I boot my laptop with the CD, but it always gives an error on sata drives... (that it can not be found...)

    So my question is... What I'm doing wrong and what should the other drivers I download to make it work? I have an external USB floppy drive... If additional drivers must be added... So I hope that there is someone can help to Ho...

    I install XP for professional reasons. Things Vista Home can not handle...

    Hope I got a respons soon... CZ, looks really URGENT...

    THX in advance and sorry if there are errors in my writing (I still am of Belgium)

    UPDATE *.
    The method above does not work for me... So took my USB floppy drive and put the drivers on it (hit 'F6' at the start, added the drivers found on the link above, it install it)...
    Then I could also choose a partition...

    So far so good... He asked me if wanted to format it or not... I said ok...
    Then, when he wanted to start the copy, I got:

    Insert the CD-rom or the floppy disk with the name
    Driver Intel Matrix Storage Manager
    In station of A:

    * Press ENTER when you are ready...

    And I do not know what I do... CZ hitting enter doesn't do anything: s

    So what I'm doing wrong, it becomes really ANNOYING and frustrating... I did everything they said in the link, in fact the method with f6, but still now reaction: s... Everyone?

    Sincerely,
    Frédéric

    Thanks for the latest info!

  • Satellite Pro 4320 - upgrade to Windows XP Home edition

    I have a 'standard' of Satellite Pro 4320 and plans the upgrade from Windows 2000 to XP - either domestic or professional. Y at - it advice on the problems or things to watch I'm likely to encounter?

    Hi Graham,

    Only problem you may have is that the Toshiba utilities were all designed for Windows 2000 and may not work properly with XP. Downloads available for your laptop have only an update of the BIOS for XP.

    Obviously XP contains device and utility drivers much more generic, so you may find that your system will work very well with the latter. Similarly, you can see that install the original Toshiba utility will work also. I have no definitive evidence either way.

    You can also find you would benefit to increase the RAM since XP uses rather than previous operating systems.

    Hey Buddy

    It is really hard to read these questions do you know why?

    Because these questions has been placed and posted more like enough here in the forum.

    If you had read that a single thread on the drivers and how to find the right drivers then you find a link to the European driver of Toshiba page that provides all the XP drivers for the Toshiba European computers portable!

    So please read some discussions before posting a thread on the same topic that is already in this forum.

  • Canon MP560 print over wireless network but don't scan (OS Windows XP Home edition)

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the software many times without success. I also called anon Help desk and after 45 to 1 h, still no luck. It worked when I had plugged USB but with wireless scan does not work, and also does not open MP Navigator. Any ideads or fix

    I now have my issue fixed. I called Canon Help Desk twice and each time they were on for an hour and more, after the second time, they said it was my pc that was the problem. Well, their after disable me my anti-virus several times and still no solution, after the last time, I discovered that even when I turned off my antivirus, it still doesn't work, then I realized that the firewall ESET NOD32 is always enabled. Then disbaled the firewall and then the software for my Canon MP560 was able to detect and to complete the installation. Now everything works fine wireless. After more than a week, it was something so simple, but with all the experts, telling me what I should do, it wasn't anything thay suggested, but something I thought was disabled with the anti-virus, but was not. So thank you all for helping me with this problem.

  • How to format c drive Windows XP Pro? I'm trying to downgrade to Windows XP Home Edition OEM CD. Request CD will not allow.

    Hello

    I have a PC with XP Pro, which I think is not a legitimate copy of the operating system.  So, I am trying to install an original OEM OS from Windows XP Home ed. Paraphasing error message: "Cannot go back," I want to start by reformatting the c drive.  However, I don't know how to do so on Windows and in the 'Run' dialog screen.  I tried to start the configuration of the screen (F8 on reboot) but the CD player says "disabled", and I can't seem to activate.  Any help that works will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
    PS: this is my first time using this forum, so I hope I can find the answer if someone answers

    I think xp reformatted drive what ever you choose to install on. A good work-around: do you do a fdisk. Set your bios to boot from floppy. Go to the directory and use the format command. That it will scan.

    http://www.computerhope.com/boot.htm make the boot disk.
