Portege R100 - how to install after Exchange of HARD drive?

Hello world
I'm new to this forum and I want to know exactly where I'm wrong. I have this portege r100 laptop and the hard drive gave a few days ago. Because I am a novice when it comes to computers, I left the laptop with an engineer, that I found on Kijiji.
Unfortunately, the engineer could not load any operating system on it. I go through this forum and loads found useful answers, but alas, still the same problem.
Could someone guide me in the right direction. I would be really grateful that I have exams coming next week and really need the laptop.

I don't have any CD-ROM compatiable only an external floppy drive.
I tried to install using the windows startup disk (x 6 downloaded from the microsoft Web site), but after the 6 disc it asks me 3 options.

1. press ENTER to install
2. recovery console option of
Output 3.F3

When I press on enter is not superimposed my cd rom which I figured out is not compatiable. If I leave the connected cd rom it says unmountable boot disk. It gives me a bsod. Is there another way, I could install the operating system using only the FDD.
I'd appreciate it really all the help of the experienced members of this forum.
Thank you.

First of all, you can not use any external CD/DVD drive... you must use a compatible and recommended by Toshiba.

Secondly, I you could try to connect the HARD drive to another computer using the USB caddy.
Then copy the i386 to the HARD disk folder.
Then, you can run the winnt.exe file to start the Setup program.

Once configuration is complete plug the HDD to the Portege and tries to start
It is only theory, but maybe it won't work

  • How to install games on external hard drive applications

    Hello people,

    I have my app game downloaded from the app store called rack 2 & I transferred to my USB key. Noting that the loading of the game takes too long, I decided to transfer it to my external hard drive. After the transfer of the application of game on the external hard drive, it does not start. So, I decided to reinstall the game by downloading it again from the store, but my disk space.

    So, I have in fact TWO problems:

    (1) how can I reinstall the application to an external hard drive? and...

    (2) how to free disk space on my hard drive internal by disabling certain files on "people"?

    If someone could shed some light on me here, it would be highly appreciated.

    You should never get too low on your space of hard drive as the OS needs a minimum 10-15 GB of free space at any time to work properly. So, if you do any movie or image/photo, rendering and editing editing works best if you have at least as much vacuum you have temporary files in your project. I can easily raise 100 GB or more temp. files for a one hour film HD, so I keep a lot of empty hard disk space.

    In order to get a few things on your hard drive, the usual space hoggers are therefore, movies, photos, etc. You can move all those who in their library on an external hard drive, and after having checked they are working, delete them from your hard drive.

    Generally, the application work better if they are installed on your internal hard drive; I'm not a gamer, so I'm not familiar with the specifics of the game you're talking about. Search on Google, I couldn't find any reference to the Macs on their website - here, it shows the platforms it is compatible with:

    Hello

    Have you checked if the new HARD drive is recognized properly by the BIOS?

    I m not 100% sure, but maybe the size of 120 GB might be too large and so the BIOS would not recognize as it should.

  • How to install Win7 on new hard drive and still access all the files from the hard drives of previous Vista?

    I currently have a Windows Vista PC. It has two SATA drives, one with the operating system, the one I use for storage.

    I want to buy a new SATA hard drive and install a new copy of Windows 7 top.

    I want to know the steps to follow to do this. My plan is this:

    1. turn the pc power off and open the case.

    2. remove the old hard disks

    3. plug the new empty hard drive

    4. turn on the pc and the insertion of the disc to install to Win7 for DVD-ROM drive

    5. enter in the bios and put the DVD-ROM as first boot device

    6. install win 7 on new hard drive.

    Is this correct?

    Because my next question is important:

    7. Turning off the computer.

    8 reconnect the two old hard drives. New total number of SATA drives connected = three.

    Now when I restart the PC and login to Win 7, it lists two other drives as, for example, D:\ and E:\ readers?

    How can I make this work?

    Thank you very much!

    Thanks for your reply, but I don't want to dual boot. I just want to have the hard drive as the master drive Windows7 and the old two drives as slaves, where I can access files as the pictures and letters.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Well, I would disconnect all drives hard current interns, then connect the new hard drive, reinstall Windows 7, re - attach the old readers as slaves and copy all the data you need to on the disc of Windows 7.

  • Portege R100: Question on the maximum size of HARD drive

    Hello

    I understand the internal player on the R100 is an ATA5 (Enhanced IDE), I've only used the IBM (now HGST) readers, they do a decent-sized on ATA6 disc, I guess, it will take the player that will support ATA5 as the controller on the R100 is ATA5 only.

    As for the size, what is the maximum size can I ride in this unit?

    The orginal is 5.4 width x depth x 7.9 height 8 mm. Can I assume all 1.8 inch drive will fot or is it a mine field?

    Thank you very much
    Ashley

    Hello

    AFAIK the R100 was delivered with a 30GB and 40GB HDD.
    I found an info that the hard drives are compatible:

    HDD1422: Width (mm) 54.0; Height (mm) 5.0 0.15; Depth (mm) 78.5 0.3
    MK2003GAH: Width: 54.0, height: 8.0, depth: 78.5

  • Satellite Pro L300 - new partition after Exchange of HARD drive sizes

    Under 'Vista' with a 120 GB hard drive and needs space.

    Bought a 500 GB SATA drive. I'm afraid that the recovery software will set the new drive with a 50-50 Partition. This is the case or it will allocate 50 GB to E: / and the rest to C: /?

    As the manual States that if I change the size of the partition the recovery software will not re - install in the future?

    Hello

    As I know the Toshiba Recovery disk always allocates 50% disk space for each partition. This means that the 500 GB drive you have two partitions with ~ 250 GB of disk space on each partition.
    If not or you want to change something, you can use the Windows disk management tool:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7101OB0006R01.htm

    I think the manual means that you can use t more the procedure for recovery of HARD disk if you change the size of the partition.
    But with the Toshiba disk recovery you are on the safe side and so you can always restore the factory settings every time. :)

    Word and Excel are not part of Microsoft Works. They are part of
    Microsoft Office.

    I really need Word and spreadsheets.  Any help you can give me will be appreciated

    Word and Excel are also not part of Windows Vista, or any other
    version of Windows. If you reinstalled Vista, you must also
    Reinstall your Office applications and anything else that you had. If you
    is not an Office CD, you're out of luck, but if the office came with

  • T500 receives do not update via update system after Exchange of hard drive

    Hello forum,.

    I replaced the broken Samsung 1 TB of HDD in my T500 with a 1 TB WD drive and restored the laptop of my latest backup (restore and recovery). After that everything seemed OK and promising until I realized that the Windows Update client and system update were not able to connect to their corresponding update servers or not able to actually look for updates.

    It took me a while to find an answer and a solution for the problem of Windows Update:

    The Samsung drive had the size of logical sector of 512 bytes, and the size of 512-byte physical sector. However, WD has now logical alternative but 4 k disk size physical sector of 512 bytes. Given that customer Windows Update (Windows 7 x 64 BTW) uses a database of local physics based on the logical sector size could play a role.

    The solution I found was to replace the SATA driver installed by the last RAID Intel rapid storage driver. This corrected some WRT question for sector sizes THAT NTFS is reported to the operating system. And this fixed the problem of Windows Update. Since then, the machine can connect and get Windows updates from Microsoft Windows Update servers again.

    Unfortunately, the fast RAID storage driver installation has not fixed the problem with the system update. Whenever I run the system update it invites me to machine type model, OS and language, and after that, I get the error message

    "The server system is currently unavailable. Please try again later. »

    When I use a second Thinkpad T61 or an old T40 at the same time and run the update system on these machines they are still able to connect and retrieve a list of available updates.

    I know that I could solve the problem by returning to a 1 TB drive with the physical sector size of 512 bytes, or probably a complete reinstallation of Windows 7 hard disk WD.

    So the obvious question is: is there anything else I could do?

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling system update without success.

    Best regards

    Ralf

    Hi, as I wrote in my first post I already tried your solution without success. System update was not even able to connect to the servers it is (or just showed this error for some reason any). However, I looked at the latest version of the update system released in October (v5.00.0019) and I have replaced v4.03.0012 with that one. And Yes - this time back to normal operation. Thus, TVSU v5 fixed somehow the problem even a never version v4 TVSU wasn't able to fix. The cause of this disorder is still unknown. Best regards, Ralf

  • How to install on a second hard drive Studio 2.1 VMware PVSCSI (model Ubuntu)?

    Hello

    I have a model that built a virtual machine based on Ubuntu 8.04.1 which makes already successfully using vmxnet3 driver.

    I also like to use PVSCSI as a non bootable SCSI for a hard drive controller second defined in this virtual machine.

    Since this is something that can be manually configured in vSphere 4.0 on an existing VM Linux Client, I wonder if this can be done by manually editing the .xml (like the vmxnet3 method) model described in tips & tricks VMware Studio.

    According to the results presented by the VMware Performance team with PVSCSI controller, it would be great to set it automatically in VMware Studio model.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Concerning

    To use PVSCSI, please note the following:

    - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1012510

    - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1010398

    Studio 2.1 would not be able to build devices with PVSCSI. Nevertheless, here are some settings, you could consider to apply the PVSCSI in the output devices built by Studio:

    For example, I used Studio to build a RHEL 5.4 VMS and the exit is located in opt/vmware/www/build/r54.1/exports/ovf.

    1 edit r54_OVF10.ovf, find the desired item from SCSI controller and replace his rasd:ResourceSubType of free to VirtualSCSI (case sensitive).

    2. as a r54_OVF10.mf to accompany him, the sha1sum of r54_OVF10.ovf in the .mf file must be updated.

    3. If you had the signed OVF (i.e. as there is a r54_OVF10.cert in my case), the FVO will also have to be re-signed (whether by/opt/vmware/bin/signovf or your own signature utility).

    And that's all. This rule changed OVF when it is deployed to ESX 4.0 U1 or great would show her as a Paravirtual VMware SCSI controller. This is obviously not a solution supported; Please use and test accordingly.
