Portege 3500 will not load XP

This message to Tom Mannerhagan.

Tom,
Am down to the tocdrom of the access and the HARD drive.
Start A player
RAMDrive Q
UBCdrive T
And a flashing Q:\ > (which is access BACK?)
You can talk to me through the last part.
Which folder? How can I copy it a temp on the HARD drive?
When I insert the XP disk it prompt me? Usually it starts just the starting load.
Furthermore, it shows only 3 stars on the side. I gave you 10. If I made a mistake and then will try and understand well this time!

Martin

Hi Martin

So sad to hear that you have paid for it but nice to hear that you finally have the access you need.

-Insert the WIndows XP CD
-Create a folder i386 to the HARD disk by writing the following after the command prompt: MD c:\i386
Don't mind large or small letters. If you get an error message that the file already exists, then you must remove the old one.
Do this by writing

DELTREE c:\i386

and confirm on Y
After that, again try to create the directory by writing
MD c:\i386

and copy the contents of the CD to the HARD drive by writing
xcopy t:\i386 c:\i386/e
This will take some time so do something else for a while.
When finished, start the installer with
c:\i386\winnt

You will receive a message that smartdrive wolud improve installation speed but I don't think that there is a software cache'ing available on CD and I can't find one on the BootCD so you have to manage without one.

Good luck

Tom

PS thanks for the points

  • Portege 3500 will not start up disk

    Hello

    I recently acquired the laptop above. I decided that I would try to reconstruct it, bad idea.
    I don't have an external CD or recovery CD but I have another laptop and a Windows XP CD.

    I removed the HARD drive the 3500 and put it in my other laptop. I formatted the drive and installed windows. Everything worked Ok and good boots in my other laptop. When I put the disc in the 3500 however, it will not start. All I see is a black screen, not even a cursor or any error.

    I tried to format the drive again and the sys'ing, it does not work. I tried installing on my other laptop then continue on the 3500 but that doesn't work either.

    I was wondering if the 3500 was looking for a partition that I deleted. I don't see why it will not start when start up ok in my other laptop HARD drive.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Thank you
    Simon

    I don't think that this has nothing to do with the score. You get the black screen, because the other laptop is quite different installed on Windows ACPI etc.
    If you have a usb floppy drive try this:
    1 partition and format the disk with Fat32 (or fat 16).
    2. from your installation CD copy the i386 on the partition directory (attach the HARD drive to another laptop)
    3. start the P3500 leave a floppy disk bootable BACK, change to the I386 directory and start the winnt.exe

    Hello

    I found a very interesting document of the FAQ on the Toshiba site:
    Procedure of product recovery and Bootdisk (FD) for the Portege 3500 Series.
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB6101CA000ER02.htm

    It should help you get started on the PCMCIA drive.

    In any case, this theme has been discussed a lot of time here in the forum.

  • Why it will not load on LTE

    Just downloaded the iOS for Firefox app. The user interface is simply amazing but the only thing that annoys me is that it will not charge if my phone is not connected to a hotspot or Wi - Fi. If it's on the 3G or LTE it does not load anything. I just wanted to know what the go-around for this.

    Thank you!!! Keep your bad-ass work!

    Hi Egotisticpain

    What exactly do you mean by "user interface will not load? Please tell us what you were doing, what you expect and what happened in as much detail as you can, and what version of Firefox you use (using one of the New Zealand app store right?) iPhone and the iPad or the iPod Touch you are using and what version of iOS.

    I just did the following iOS 8.4.1, iphone on Firefox for iOS build 43 (which is the same build that you can find on the iOS App Store New Zealand), 6, with:

    1. disabled the WiFi so he went to LTE
    2. startup of Firefox for iOS
    3. surfed at twitter.com and the site loaded, and then typed on a link and it loaded

  • Some Web sites will not load

    Some websites will not load or partially charge and will be usually just load the site title and nothing else and will have a spinning wheel at the top which will not stop.
    They tend to work on FF before, but no more.

    Also, when I click on another link or something like that it will show the whole page as it is supposed to be for the duration it takes to switch the clicked link. I can, for example, (though I'm pretty fast) click on another link and then cancel it and I'll be able to see the page (in some really weird stuff).

    I read something about Java Script doing this problem, I turned off Java script and I could see some of the sites, but Needless to say that certain features of the Web site are lost.
    Happens on websites very little well but still enough to annoy me. I don't like not only 2 or 3 sites from switching browsers.

    I'm sure it has something to do with Java Script, but was not able to understand that even after reading some of the questions here.

    Here are 2 websites that no longer works:
    http://www.parkablogs.com/
    http://www.latest-hairstyles.com/

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    You can check for problems with preferences.

    Delete possible user.js and files numbered prefs-# .js and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.

  • Firefox will not load https pages. gives the security warning and will not accept an exception.

    I had problems with Firefox and some sites for about a year, and it is located in my laptop. I have no problems when using my desktop at work or my dad's cell phone in his house. Some sites simply returns a page of text style; no html. Other sites give me a security certificate warning and FF will not accept an exception for this site, either by clicking the button or manually enter the site as an exception. Tonight, GOOGLE will not load again! Why, it's trying to load on an https server, I don't know, however. Several other sites have also begun does not not and are also trying to load it on a secure server.

    Use Kaspersky, AVAST 2015, ESET, BitDefender or Microsoft family safety? These are among the most popular security programs which have a function to intercept your Internet connections and filter your traffic. When it's a secure site, in order to be able to decrypt and inspect your communications, the software must present a false certificate for Firefox. Sometimes, the software is not able to configure Firefox for this, or if you use the function of Reset of Firefox, the trust is broken and needs to be put in place again.

    Unfortunately, the same symptoms can appear with some malicious software.

    If you look at the second half of the post of Philipp, you see where you can check the section 'From' the certificate. This usually allows to identify the culprit. Can you take a look and report what you find?

  • satellite 4080XCDT will not load the OS W2k

    Hello

    I have a problem with a laptop.
    It runs windows 2000 and will not load the operating system.

    I think someone changed the boot.ini on the pc,
    Now, when it is turned on, it displays the operating system of windows 2000, as well as the other one under it called operating system windows 2000 photo.
    I think someone tried to change the boot image but erred in the boot.ini file and now it won't start him.

    So I think that the boot.ini file is now incorrect and not finding the operating system.
    Is it possible to change this and get the operating system to load?

    If you are sure that only the boot.ini file has been changed then, you can see this Microsoft Web site, and the article on the boot.ini file in Windows 2000.

    Here you can find details how works a boot.ini file and what to change.
