Portege 2000 - new installation using the PCMCIA CD-ROM XP

I try to install XP on Portege 2000 using the official PCMCIA Toshiba CD-ROM drive.

Install the XP disk boots fine, but after that Setup copied the files it blue screen (BSOD blue). I'm not very tech savvy, but I think it means that the BIOS can 'see' the PCMCIA CD-ROM, but that the real image of XP loaded by the installation program cannot, probably due to missing drivers for the PCMCIA CD-ROM?

Then, I thought that maybe I could use F6 to load additional drivers during the initial installation, but it is beyond me to create the right set of files required. I know that you can download the Freecom drivers, but I don't know what are the driver files from CD to use and how to create from scratch the txtsetup.oem file right.

Does anyone know how to properly use F6 and load the drivers for it?

I found a lot of messages suggesting I copy the installer to the HARD disk and launch the installation from there. My problem is that the XP installation is an upgrade CD, so I will ask you at a certain time to insert a previous Windows CD and if at that time there I don't have a working CD-ROM drive...

First post on this forum so be nice - I did a search but not find a thread with a real solution, but of course if I miss a please report!

Hello

I managed to install Windows XP Home the Portege 2000 using the PCMCIA reader but I ve used recovery disks original Toshiba which includes the correct driver for external optical drive.

So far I tried not to install Windows XP Home edition, using the Microsoft installation disc.

Maybe you should get the disks of facilities and not use this upgrade disk. I think that on this path, you will be able to install WXP as suggested when you copy data from facilities at the disk directly.
Have you tried to get the original recovery disc Toshiba WXP?

  • Make a new file using the "Save as".

    Bit of feedback to the staff HERE...

    We use LabVIEW 8.6. and, at least in this implementation, trying to make a new VI using the command save as product a menu of choices, including none make sense to me. Sorry, but I can't say which of them will produce only makes a new file with a changed name to be refined. Trial and error product folders, but not files, replaces the original file (why would I do that, I chose save as no record) and about each result other than what I was trying to accomplish.

    May you fix this in a future release, but for 8.6, I feel that I must take a class just to save the new file.

    You can not, for at least one (and two possible) reasons.

    1. it isn't clean if you want to have two computers, or you
    you want to remove from the old computer and put it on the new. If
    you want once, you can't do that - the rule is very clear: there
    a copy (or a license) for each computer.

    There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
    effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

    2. but even if you want it on a single and from uninstall
    the old computer, you can't do it. It is because if it came with the
    computer, it is an OEM version and the biggest drawback to he a
    OEM version, is that its license it permanently binds to the first
    It is installed on the computer. He can never legally be moved to another
    computer, sold or assigned (except with the original computer).

    Hey randym91310518,

    To download and install the same software on the new machine, you will first need to disable the previous machine, and then turn on again with the same serial key.

    Please note: If you purchased a subscription Acrobat or a single user license, then you can install & activate on computers, for example, your desktop at the office and a laptop at home.

    To know more details about Acrobat & deactivation activation, you may need to go to the below mentioned link:

    Hope that helps.

    Let me know.

  • I have problems activating dreamweaver on new pc using the original activation code

    I have a copy of StudioMX 2004 and had problems activating Dreamweaver on my new pc using the original code. It is said there is a network error, but it does not exist. When I try to activate by phone number they give is of insurance Lloyd's bank. I did a live chat with Support and they gave me a new code that has worked and enabled Dreamweaver but I didn't activate the fireworks at the same time. When I tried to use the new or the old code, I get the same error message and the same telephone number of Lloyds Bank. I tried the live chat, but they refuse to stop them from saying that they do not support Dreamweaver 2004... one of the ideas?

  • Satellite 2450-201: cannot use TV option after the new installation of the OS

    Hello

    I have a laptop toshiba satellite 2450-201.
    I've always had the TV OUT works well with my TV, use the right cable SVIDEO.
    I was able to watch divx movies in my TV using my computer.

    I had to format the laptop and installed windows XP again.
    After that, I can't use more TV-OUT option, so that the image of the laptop could be seen on television, I've always had.
    After that I updated display drivers, but the problem remains.

    Can someone help me?
    Thank you

    Hello

    How do you reinstall the operating system? Have you used the recovery CD?
    Usually after the reinstallation of the operating system from the recovery CD, everything should work properly.
    It is important that you can switch to the TV. In this case, you can use FN + F5.
    If it's not working so I guess that for display devices hotkey utility works or was not installed. Well, the alternative is to pass on the TV via the graphic properties. The TV option, you should find somewhere in the advanced options.

    However, check it and check if you have installed all the drivers.

  • Firefox will not identify FF username account on a new installation on the new computer.

    I know that I have the good username, email and password, because I'm looking at them on my laptop existing. But on the installation of 28 FF on my new computer laptop, and you try to start the synchronization process, I get the message "account unknown."
    When I choose the start synchronization process on my new computer, I get this sign in the message. But I can't sign, let alone start the pairing process.
    I did the front pairing process, recently, with my desktop and my laptop existing, so I know it works. Something about FF is not allowing it to recognize my correct email.
    I'm on Win 8.1.
    Thank you.

    Please update Firefox 29,0. Firefox is passed on using the synchronization using Firefox. When installing 29,0, visit Subject: accounts in the URL bar to get started with the implementation of a sync account.

  • Portege R600 - how to use the external monitor on the docking automatically

    Hi - I just got a new Portege; R600-102. It's a great machine - very light and fast.

    I connect to a Slim port replicator to the office and I wish I could anchor and automatically use the external monitor without opening the laptop. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do it? This process has worked well on my recently retired Dell X 300.

    More precisely:
    # I have the laptop closed Portégé and standby mode
    # I anchor in the Slim Port Replicator (SPR)
    # I press the button 'on' on the SPR
    # I see the message "recovery windows" and the bars of the countdown on the external monitor. (So I know it's connected and you can see the external monitor)
    # The laptop turns on but use the laptop screen (private) LCD
    # I have to open it and manually tell it 'out to watch.
    What can be automatically?

    Thanks for the tips.

  • Satellite Pro U400-11V - Installation using the floppy from XP downgrade

    Hello

    Yesterday I had to replace my HARD drive once it is simply dead.
    I didn't know it was a big deal that I had lost any data.
    I would just like to re - install Windows XP using the Downgrade XP disk came with the laptop.

    It turns out that: I have about 10 discs Downgrade XP each almost identical looking and everyone, I assume, associated with a particular Toshiba laptop my company bought at some point.
    Now, I have no idea what drive is the one that came with my Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-11V.

    What I did:
    -We selected at random.
    -Installed Win Xp Pro.
    -Tried to activate Windows.
    -It indicates that the product key is bad (and some drivers are missing, so it is obviously not the disc that came with the laptop, but he got me so far).
    -Correct the product key according to the key that is located on a sticker at the bottom on the laptop *.
    * On the sticker, this key is an OEMAct Windows Vista Business key, the OS of the laptop came with.
    -L'activation of Windows will not accept the key to the sticker.

    So I have 2 questions:
    1. is there another method of re - install Windows XP Pro using the * original * Downgrade XP disk that came with?
    2 (leading to #1) is it possible to identify which drive is the one shipped with my laptop? Perhaps by checking some serial numbers on the disc?

    Worst case scenario I'll have to make (at most) 10 Windows installs until one works.
    But I was really hoping some help & advice.

    I can't wait to hear all the answers,
    Thank you!

    Your ad is really funny :D

    I put t know how your Win XP drive looks like. My laptop came with the recovery disk and it was mentioned on the label that it's Toshiba recovery disc.

    In addition he s already enabled so I put t need to activate the operating system by using this key.
    Also, the key at the bottom of the unit belongs to the preinstalled operating system and it will NOT work with the new Win XP or another operating system.

    But back to your Win XP disks
    I recommend that you check the single disc... maybe a disc is already activated
