Portege S100 - Reinstall WXP impossible

I am trying to reinstall Windows XP on a new hard drive and can not for the life of figure me out how to do it. It does not recognize the fact, there is a working hard disk in it (tested on another computer portable hard drive is recognized).

I tried to add the raid driver original on the disc of installation using nlite and still not the same error "no hard disk". Pulling my hair out here on something that should be as simple and on point to put a hammer through this machine.

Could someone please? Explain how I can get WXP pro on this machine you.

Can you please send the name of the exact model laptop?

  • Portege S100 - reinstall Windows XP using F6 and RAID drivers

    I have this announcement in the hope that it helps someone.

    Well my hard drive is dead, so got a replacement one. I'm not so innocently, I thought that, just down load the drivers from the website of the original dvd.
    So did all of this and the raid has yet to see! Changed the settins to raid in the bios that you get by pressing ESC, then the default values, restart and go back into bios goto page 3 - which is so visible. Make sure that the disc is set to1raid0 - download the manual, but you must agree to any change in typing 1234 when it asks for a string from the manual. Anyway did all that - still no visible drive - so which continues.

    Well apparently there are 2 sets of pilots kr10n and kr10i - that givesyou site is kr10n drivers. That may work for the most recent, but not mine! My laptop needs the kr10i which I can't find on the site tosiba. BUT http://download.cnet.com/raid-drv-20070719134547-zip/3000-18492_4-174094.html or you can google for raid-drv-20070719134547

    The steps for me were so use nlite to add the drivers of kr10i on a WinXP SP3 patched cd and start using that. It was work related.

    After that, everything went great! Well, I didn't have much hair initially, but even less after having finished the process.

    Good luck

  • Portege S100: Impossible to install Toshiba SD Host to use Toshiba Bluetooth SD Card2

    I try to install the Toshiba SD Card2 on my Portege S100 Bluetooth but I can't make it work, I get the error
    "Cannot open the device Bluetooth ACPI (tosrfec.sys) driver. (Try again)?

    which suggests that the SD slot is not reading the card. Then, I went to the Toshiba bluetooth section and find the driver files for the Toshiba SD host controller driver (http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/). I think I should install this like the host controller driver and compatible SDA Standard SD Host Controller.

    However, when I try to update the driver, by specifically selecting the folder of the Toshiba host controller driver, it is said that he could not find a better match that already installed. Therefore, I decided to install it manually, but instead, I get the error
    "The specific location contains no information about your hardware.

    I'm running out of ideas, can someone help me please?

    Hi mircea,.

    It s not the driver SATA who is absent, but the RAID driver. OK it similar but just to be clear ;) s

    You can download the RAID driver from Toshiba's official website:

    But to look for in * Archive * rather portable computer product category because it of older model so it s moved to Archive.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, no one here can help you with this. BIOS password is very important security feature, and it cannot be resolved in some public forums.
    This can be solved with only authorized service.

    Response code can be given only by Toshiba and they don't give it to anyone. Authorized service provider can only get it after checking if the laptop has not been stolen.
    Contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and they can help you wth this.

  • Portege S100 - 7B code downtime when installing XP

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Portege S100, I'm doing a fresh install of XP on it.

    Installing XP recognize the hard drive very well and has completed the installation of XP, but when it restarts I get a screen of 7 Blue b a few seconds after having reached the XP loading screen. I tried with a disc XP slipstreamed with the Toshiba RAID drivers added as well as the F6 during installation to add RAID drivers manually. Same result.

    I also tried to run the installation with the RAID JBOD unit and 1RAID-0, same result. I tried different hard drives and I also tried in other S100 (we have 4 here to get XP on.)

    I hope to get some fresh ideas on what it feels like I've been watching the same index of crossword 4 days if you know what I mean.

    Kind regards

    Danny

    > Installing XP recognize the hard drive very well and has completed the installation of XP, but when it restarts I get a screen of 7 Blue b a few seconds after having reached the XP loading screen

    I doubt that this BSOD can be linked to the RAID or RAID settings driver since the Windows operating system has recognized the HARD drive and the installation could be completed.
    There must be another reason why
    However, you can also try to disable RAID in BIOS as well and then you could check how the facility would be produced.

    What CD of Win XP did you use? This disc includes all service packs?
    It must contain the SP1 and SP2 min.

  • The Portege S100 graphics card problem?

    I have a Portege S100-S113TD, and I was watching a youtube fullscreen video, when the screen went suddenly full of horizontal lines and the laptop became unresponsive - I had to physically hold the power button for about 10 seconds turn off.

    Now it turns on but I only have a blank screen - it is the graphics card?

    If so, can anyone suggest where I can buy a replacement graphics card?

    The current one is a nVidia GeForce Go 6200TE 64M / 128 M 6600TE - I tried looking for one, but perhaps they are now obsolete.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    > Now it turns on but I only have a blank screen - it is the graphics card?
    It seems that Yes

    But you are able to test the laptop with an additional external monitor?
    If possible, connect the external monitor and press Fn + F5 to check if something would be visible on 2nd screen.
    If photos on 2nd screen would be visible, then the GPU is OK and only your internal display is faulty.

  • Need drivers for my Portege S100

    I have notebook, Portege S100 model: PPS10E-o1t019en
    On the www, I can't find this model and the pilot...

    Please help me.

    Where can I find it?

    Mark

    Hello

    The problem is that Satellite S100 has a RAID controller, you the RAID driver XP can detect the internal HARD drive.
    As wrote Feliks you can download the from the official page of Toshiba under Archive.

    Either you create a new drive bootable XP with RAID driver or you load them from external floppy drive.

  • Portege S100: How to change the RAID in the BIOS

    Change the BIOS setting for Portege S100 of JBOD to RAID0, I hit space on Exectute creation and enter the key of type string in the manual, and press "enter".
    Settings and then return to existing arrangements and not the new RAID0 configuration setting that I selected.

    I stayed in this part of the day / night looking at different positions, but I don't see anything wrong with the data entered.

    This is the same as that recorded in this link: -.
    [How to change the RAID configuration | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB6901K60006R01.htm]

    I'm now at the end of my home, I just wanted to install new HDD WD and new installation of XP Pro, is - it too much to ask?

    Maybe it s a silly question but; have you installed the second HDD to the Ultra Slim Bay?
    The RAID did feature is available when a second HDDD is installed in Ultra Slim Bay.

    If the second HDD was inserted and then change the RAID in the Windows operating system.
    There should be a Toshiba RAID Console.
    You can use this console to create or manage a RAID array.

    To start the utility, click Start, point to all programs, point to Toshiba, RIAD-tap and click RAID console.
    It of possible to change the RAID1 (mirroring) of a configuration non-RAID (default).

    But note; When RAID1 is set, you cannot change your settings unless you completely restore your preinstalled software.

  • A keyboard for a Portege S100 will work in a Portege M100?

    Quick question - a keyboard for a Portege S100 will work in a Portege M100?

    Page layout looks like. Although a different color.

    Hello

    I think that you can not use the same keyboard as the Portege S100 supports the year-easy-to-use 84 keys (US) or 85-keyboard (UK) and the Portege M100 supports the year-easy-to-use 85/86-keyboard.
    In addition, the S100 connector supports the keyboard interface 34 CN3230 pins and the M100 supports PJ3230 34pin keyboard connector.

    So maybe this could be a problem.
    I recommend using the original keyboards published for each laptop model.

  • Unable to start Portege S100 after the HDD with SafeBoot encryption

    I am trying to install the full encryption of the disk of SafeBoot (McAfee Endpoint) of 100 + laptops, which most is Toshiba. I use Device Encryption 5.1.5.0, liberation 5300 (515-0015) and I was able to install successfully on a number of different models of Toshiba, however, the Portege S100 causing me a problem. The customer of SafeBoot software installs OK on Windows XP SP2 (and SP3) and encrypts the drive as usual, but as soon as I restart it does not start again.

    Now, when I turn first I get:

    From SafeBoot v5.1
    Please wait...

    for a second, then a dialog box appears in the middle of the screen:

    SafeBoot error
    Error: 0xe002001b
    No boot disk was found

    He never does to SafeBoot screen logon is still in the start-up phase.

    I think it's because this laptop has a SATA RAID build controller. We do not use the RAID configuration and that you have an original disc installed. The BIOS is the latest version 1.50 and the third system configuration screen shows the status of RAID array to 1RAID-0. If I put it in JBOD so I can't even go as far as the Windows installation.

    So far I have tried to replace the Toshiba RAID with the Intel 82801FBM (ICH6M) driver SATA AHCI 7.0.0.1020 pilot. It works very well during the installation of Windows to step and F6 in Windows before encryption. I used even with the success of this pilot with a WinTech CD (updated the BartPE CD with SafeBoot plugin) and am able to see the encrypted drive. However, even with this driver, I get the same message once encrypted.

    I'm sure that my SafeBoot administration and deployment is configured correctly because the same works set of installation very well on a certain number of models different for laptop, but not this one.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Hello

    I m not an expert in SafeBoot software. It s I don't not known but I would like to say a few words about the RAID driver that you used.

    I think that it s a bad driver. It looks like a SATA driver and not the RAID driver.

    The Toshiba European page pilot provides a * 1.3.8.0 * v for the Toshiba RAID driver

    Please check this!

    I would recommend also consulted with the Portege S100 user manual.
    You will find details of the RAID.

    JBOD means no RAID settings. By using this option, Windows cannot be installed on this drive, except using the Toshiba DVD/CD product recovery

  • Portege S100: Boot from USB?

    Hi guys, hope someone can help me.

    I recently got a Portege S100 with a DVD player that does not work.
    I swapped the drive with a working one, but still no joy.

    I was informed that it probably means that the problem is with the motherboard and is not really worth it on such an old model.

    The person who gave me the laptop said the rest is fully functional.

    However, my main problem is that the laptop is provided with no OS on the HARD drive.

    I have the original Toshiba installation DVD, but of course I can't boot from it as the DVD player does not work. Is it possible to boot from an external USB drive on this model?

    I looked at the boot order in the bios and I don't see an option for her, but I could be wrong.
    I do not want to splash out on a new USB key if there is no hope of the Portege grateful it.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Have you had a glance at the user manual? Maybe he will mention the USB/Boot features.

    If you do not have the manual, you can download it from the site Web of Toshiba in the Drivers section.

  • Portege S100 - upgrade after cloning BSOD & HARD disk

    Hi all

    I wonder if anyone can help me please. I have a laptop Portege S100 with a standard 80 GB drive. I want to upgrade to a 200 GB drive.
    Here's what I did.

    I ran Acronis to save an image of the 80 GB HARD drive. All backed by an external USB disk and checked. I inverted the readers and restored the image on the 200 GB drive. All restored and verified.

    I restart the PC with the new hard drive in place. "Windows XP" logo comes up, then aarrgh blue screen. Stop x7B.
    Swapped the old disk, system boots fine.
    Check in the BIOS, with the old hard drive in place that the RAID configuration is enabled by default

    New swap disk, JBOD configuration is enabled in the BIOS. Could this be why it is not booting? If I want to activate the RAID configuration, it is ok, but I'm told that it will wipe the hard drive!

    I have no qualms about wiping the new hard drive, but it will work? If I change the RAID configuration, then restore the image? The only reason why I have not done it so far is because it took some time to create the image, and then writing it back on the new disk and at that time there the owner of the laptop is needed it back. !

    Help appreciated!
    Thank you very much
    Alex

    Hello!

    Can you post the BSOD detailed please?

    I'm a little confused on RAID m parameters are you wrote. As I know the Portege S100 can handle only a single HARD disk.
    In addition, you must use the same settings as with the old HDD RAID.

    Maybe the SATA controller has a limitation of LBA 28 bit and can't handle a 200 GB HARD drive. In this case, the larger HARD drive should have 120 GB. Here you can learn more about the limitation:
    http://www.48bitlba.com

    Last but not least, you can see the new HARD drive for errors. Maybe it s faulty. For this, you can use the Drive Fitness Test:

    Sorry, but for the moment I put t have more ideas.

  • Extension of memory in a Portege S100

    I recently bought a Portege S100, which came with 512 MB of RAM. Information on this model, says it can be increased up to 2048 MB using 2 slots of memory. Initially, I assumed 1024Mo in each. I looked at the electronic user guide, and it gives the impression that the original memory slot (512 MB) is non-removable, while under the "memory module cover" is an another single memory slot available for the purpose of expansion. This is the case, or if the existing memory of 512 MB can be located (everywhere where it is, it is not visible when memory cover removed) and be replaced by [saying] 1024 MB?

    Hello

    Your device has no internal memory. There are two slots. According to the specs of the device comes with 512 MB of RAM, and you can extend it to 2 GB maximum. If you want to use 1 GB of RAM module compatible part except the number PA3411U-1M1G (DDR2 400/533 1 GB).

    In the lower (in the middle) you can find the cover of the memory expansion. Remove it and swap the module.
    Good luck!
