Portege A100 - where can I get an XP installation disc?

Hello

I received a Portege A100 which has Linux hard disk. It came with no CD - the former owner has none.

It has a Windows XP Pro serial number on the case and I want to reinstall XP Pro. Where can I get the XP installation disc for? Toshiba sell them or give away them? Can I get the drivers from the Toshiba site, but not the XP operating system.

You can try to order the original recovery CD/DVD under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
I just hope that your laptop is not too old. Many people have reported that the order to older models of laptops is not available.
Another solution is to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer. Maybe they can help with it.

In the end, the last solution is to install own OS by using the original Microsoft installations CD. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba supports the page.
The key in the lower corner belongs to the original recovery image and will not help you with own operating system facilities.

  • Satellite C850 - where can I get and Win7 installation .iso of?

    Hi guys,.

    I searched and found a lot of threads, but have not really found a solution.

    I bought C850 with Win7-64-home-premium preinstalled for my wife.
    First I wanted to decline Microsoft EULA and claim the money for Win7 license, but I thought that his quid of only 50 or 60, and I could the want once a year so I left as what.

    First impression - its Terrible slowness!

    I have an old NB100, Witch of Linux running of Atom and 2 GB of RAM, I use from time to time when I work on the road and this old tiny netbook is faster then my new C850 with i3 and 8 GB of RAM. I mean A LOOOOOT faster.

    Then I run Mint Livecd, and then I saw how fast C850 can be if it is given real operating system instead of Microsofts crapware.

    Then I installed WIn7-64-professional and there was a BIG difference. This is nowhere near as fast as on Linux Mint, but it's much better then original install.

    It was only to check how it happens on a clean install. I don't have a license for Win7-pro for C850 and I don't even have any intention of paying for something as useless as Win7. People should be paid for all the suffering caused by Win7.

    On the other hand, I would pay gladly for Linux Mint and in fact I've done a beautiful gift to the project not long :)

    Conclusion - the slowdown was casued by Toshiba bloatware (which is not at all necessary for the functioning of the laptop!) and all the other stuff like McAfee or Nero.

    I tried to reinstall but him reinstalled Win7 comes with all the bloatware and I need clean install Win7.

    To cut short answers like "install and remove unnecessary waths" - which does not solve the problem for two reasons:
    (1) to install and remove, many things remain on the system, registry entries, lots of files, etc
    (2) I need and .iso of Win7, so I can integrate by little things and get rid of ALL LOT of useless things

    Where can I purchase and installation .iso of?
    I mean clean Win7 without all this bloatware Toshiba, McAfee, Nero and other detritus.
    Mind you, I bought a laptop with Win7 license so I have the LEGAL RIGHT to use Win7 on its own.

    Popular suspicion.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    > Where can I get and .iso installation of?

    As much as I know Toshiba does not any clean Windows 7 disk.
    You can create a recovery disk using the media recovery disk creator.
    You will get the image of Toshiba with Windows 7, drivers, tools and utilities.

    If you want to install clean Win 7, or you have to buy it from Microsoft or try to download the iso from MS page but I have no idea if the serial at the bottom of the device key would work because this key belongs to the OEM version installed on your laptop.

  • Where can I get the Vista recovery disc - Satellite P205D-S8802

    Hey guys,.

    Last year, I bought my Toshiba Satellite P205D-S8802
    I got no CD Recorvy, but if I want to do the training, the HARD disk I need the disk
    Where can I get the disc?
    I have the original Windows Vista Home premium (the button on the laptop is a Microsoft label)

    Thank you for the help

    Hello

    To me, it seems that Satellite P205D-S8802 is a series of portable US.
    You should be able to order the recovery of the ASP disk in your country.
    Otherwise, you need an original Vista from Microsoft and the pilots could be downloaded from the American pilot site.
    But note; You may not use the Vista serial number which is placed at the bottom.
    It belongs to the preinstalled Vista and it s version just an OEM

  • Where can I get a real installation of XP Home product key for purchased disc?

    I have an installation disc at home XP genuine, purchased in a 3 pack for OEM installation, but I lost the certificate of authenticity for this disc (other installed and sticker placed on the PC when sold)-this version has been installed on a PC for the family, but now synonymous with failure of the HARD drive I want to re - install the new HARD drive - where can I get a valid COA / product key for this drive?

    MS sells more than XP.

    Very few legitimate copies of XP OEM in the wild no longer exists, there is probably more counterfeits out there than the real ones, so be VERY careful about your source.

    MS has never sold key without which accompanies the software and or forge anyone.

    All above mean them that it is likely that (assuming that the certificate of authenticity for this machine is lost/illegible), it may be easier to upgrade the computer to Win7 or replace it completely.

  • Satellite A100 - where can I get new display drivers?

    Hello

    I reinstalled my Windows to my Satellite A100 and I installed the drivers for my graphics card in this from Toshiba Web site. Unfortunately, they are not the most current. I noticed that my games does not work properly. The surfaces look like shards of glass and flashing in and out...

    Before reinstalling my Windows I had the same problem and I have a few more recent drivers and my games worked well but I don't remember it who or where I have been.
    Can I get some suggestions where I would get the best players to do this, even if their is not made by ATI?

    best regards Mrs

    For better graphics performance, you can simply use the drivers changed and unsupported.
    Of course, on your own risk.
    For drivers you can visit omegadrivers.net

    He's trying to do a startup, normally with preinstalled systems repair, the manufacturer provides a patented method to do that does not require a disc. You will need to consult your system documentation or the manufacturers web site for instructions.

  • Portege Z830 - where can I get the new HARD drive

    Hello

    I have problem with my toshiba portege z830 ultrabook.
    My HARD drive died, and I don't know where I can get the new HARD drive.

    I've got guaranteed but I am forgotten registered my cell phone before when I went for repairs not authorized, because my first problem was with the motherboard.

    This motherboard has been replaced for new ones.
    If my warranty is maybe cancelled.

    Well, that's my problem to another.

    What should I do?
    Please help me. I am available to do anything.

    Hello

    I think that you should first check if your warranty is still valid.
    This can be checked on Toshiba Unitdetails page:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails/

    Where the warranty is valid, get in touch with maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country for replacement.

    But as far as I know the Portege Z830 was equipped with an mSATA SSD drive.
    This means that the laptop doesn't support HDD 2.5 common but requires special mSATA SSD drive module.

    In case your warranty is not valid, you will pay for a new mSATA module.
    Replacement should do a service provider authorized Toshiba as well because this replacement is a little tricky on this model of laptop.

  • Satellite A100 - where can I get new display driver?

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite A100-153 and I also use it for games. It is, drivers that are available on this site are DEFINITELY outdated (they are of type.. 2007) and I can't install official drivers of mobility on the ATI site.

    So my question is: is there a chance that I can get my hands on some new drivers for my laptop or friend stuck with pipe drivers up to eternity, or is there another possibility to get new drivers?

    hope you can help me.

    Hello

    It seems that this phone has been equipped with an ATI Mobility Radeon X 1600 graphics card.
    As suggested by the previous user, you can try to install an ATI driver for different laptops models that would encourage the same graphics card, or check you some pages 3rd of group for a compatible driver.

    But as far as I know Toshiba recommends the use of own graphics drivers because these drivers were tested and certified.
    3rd party drivers are not tested and could lead to different problems
