• Problem NTLDR Vista on Satellite L40

  I have a new laptop of L40 series.
  Start today to get "NTLDR is missing - Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete" - I thought that panoramas did not use NTLDR - how can I fix this?

  Hi mate,

  I ve found an interesting site on this problem NTLDR, the guy from this site, created a really cool tool that solves your problem (or should set at least a 'probably')

  http://tinyempire.com/notes/ntldrismissing.htm

  If I were you I would back up my data regularly on an external media, because if you did something like you would just now recover your machine and copy your entire data to the system.

  Welcome and have fun ;)

• How to load the SATA drivers during the installation of XP - Satellite L40-18 X?

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite L40-18 X with Vista Home OS. Now, I want to install Windows XP, I know that I have to reinstall the SATA drivers, but I can't find USB-drive floppy-disk drive.

  I was wondering can I install these drivers of some other player, like a flash drive or external CD ROM

  Thanks in advance

  Hello!

  There are two options to load the SATA drivers.

  As you know to load from a floppy drive, but if you n t have one, this isn't a problem.

  Create your own Windows disk with nLite. nLite is a tool of suppression of configuration and Windows components before installation of your choice, but you can also integrate drivers, service packs, the settings and to this day.
  It s a very nice tool and its freeware.
  Here you can download and read how to create a disk:

• The Atheros WLAN card works intermittently under Win Vista on Satellite L40

  I just bought a brand new Satellite L40 PSL 40th loaded with Windows Vista Premium.
  Portable back due to problems with the atheros wireless network adapter.
  When I met similar problems connection is intermittent and non-recognition of existing sources of local wirelesss connection. Made, it was not a hardware problem and wouldn't come back under warranty in case where the accused.

  Spoke to the technician who advised I remove Vista and XP to load. Have loaded a copy of XP and had to download drivers (very slow and takes too much time). Cannot find drivers for XP for movie maker DVD or CD/DVD.
  Can someone provide me with XP drivers?

  Can we claim a free copy of the XP cd and driver of Toshiba?

  What do you think guys?

  Hi, GLD

  I read in this forum about Atheros-Vista and found that the installation of these patches: * KB935222, KB932030, KB932063 * could help.

• Messed up the initial configuration of Win Vista on Satellite L40

  I can only think that I messed up when performing the initial installation of Vista Home Premium on my new Satellite L40.
  I finished to the high withComputer\Vista C:\Users/comet containing all my stuff AND - outside of Vista C: - a full mirror in Desktop/Chris...
  Can someone tell me if I can return to the initial configuration screen and how?

  I tried to back up the directories and then delete them and you try to restore a single directory, but the other reappears too!
  I'm obviously a complete dunce so please do not forget that and keep your simple instructions!

  If anyone can help then anyone know a number 0800 for Toshiba Technical Support?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  What s your problem exactly? You can start the Vista?
  If so, what you want to change it or not?

  If you can not boot Vista and then take your Toshiba Recovery DVD and try to reinstall it again

• Vista and satellite L40

  A year that I have Satellite L40 for this year only one problem.

  Who has guessed to low machine Vista I have a configuration of equipment, I see that it is calculated on XP System I reorganize once a week in talk, all goes well with the iron. Probably to reorganize Win XP on mine?

  Upon receipt of the update, I can't load system, only black screen. I am very satisfied with your product and support. We won't have the data that appear on your site.
  Letters unanswered. A bad product with poor support.

  Hello

  I read your ad three times and I still didn't understand what you mean. If you're ready to write discussion please a bit more of your reviews. To be honest I didn t understand what data on the Toshiba site, you mean. You wrote about the specification of the laptop?

  A friend of mine has Satellite L40 too and it works well. The fact is that Toshiba offers several models of different laptops with different hardware specifications. When compare you them in the store the first thing you see is the price. So, if you compare L40 Satellite and Satellite A300, you will see the difference.
  It is logical that a notebook of budget with basic configuration that your L40, do not have the same hardware as a laptop that costs more than 400 euros.
  L40 with this basic hardware platform can be used with Vista, but you can not expect some fabulous performances. What you need is RAM upgrade and configuration of the operating system right and you will see the difference.

  Older L10 and L20 were also not laptops more faster with Windows XP Home edition. Two of them were also provided with the minimum of RAM but acceptable for Windows XP Home edition.

  So if you want to discuss a little more on your laptop, please let us know what problems you have. Maybe we can help and see what you can do to make it better.

  Good luck!

• Performance issues with Vista on Satellite L40 - 14N

  I just signed up to your forum, it's really nice, how it works.
  I bought 3 months ago, a satellite L40-14N, with Vista Home Premium pre-installed, but I'm starting to get tired of the delays.
  I also have a problem, always Walker I want to open some windows, such as control panel or my computer and all my icons on the desktop disappear after some time will be displayed again, but not the application open before (Panel configuration or my computer).

  I wanted to ask all of you, what may be the problem, in fact I think to get rid of Vista and install XP, do you think it would be a good idea?
  If so, what kind of xp (sp2, sp3, etc.)? And, what I would have in return when I install xp, as what drivers need me for my laptop works properly again?

  Thank you very much... good day

  Hello

  He knows that the Vista operating system is in need of more resources as a Microsoft OS at the beginning of s.
  I have a Vista on the L30 and I get a really slow performance.
  In addition many services and processes running in the background of the operating system. It also decreases performance.
  But all background processes are needed if you want to use all the features of notebooks such as the FN keys or buttons to Toshiba for example.

  However, I've installed XP on the L30 without any additional driver for the FN keys, control buttons etc and it was amazing to see how fast the laptop can be.

  So generally it s not a bad idea to install XP on the L40.
  But note; If you want to install XP on the L40 you must install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager first. Without this driver SATA XP does not recognize the HARD drive.

• PCMCIA.sys problem with Vista on Satellite M40 135

  Hello

  (Sorry for my English)
  I tried to install Windows Vista on my Satellite M40-135. (I added the 512 MB of RAM).

  But, like all users, I have the problem with pcmcia.sys. Vista starts successfully when I delete the pcmcia.sys file.
  But I have a problem: I have a PCMCIA TV and I could not use it without the pcmcia.sys file...

  So I was wondering if Toshiba will download the new drivers for Windows Vista... This laptop is 'Vista capable' according to Microsoft System requirements...

  Waiting for your help...

  Unfortunately, it seems that the snipe is right.
  Can the hardware specifications of this laptop allows you to install the Vista
  but it seems that Toshiba has decided to publish no Vista drivers for each series laptop.

  In order to check this document:

  Not seem that your laptop series is not part of the list

• Macromedia MX2004 & Vista on Satellite L40

  Hi I do not know really where to put this so thought Id issue ' start here...

  I recently tried to move Dreamweaver in front of my old monster from Windows XP (running MX2004) to my new beautiful L40 - 15 running Windows Vista - first you try to run MX2004, but after struggling with bugs upgrade to Adobe CS3

  My problem is that I have set up the ftp section in CS3 and can get on my pages, but for some reason any my style sheet is not available, all images, formatting and text are available, but when I try to access the style sheet I get an access denied error message

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Sorry Andrew, but I don't see any link between the described issue and Toshiba laptops. Maybe you need to contact Macromedia support.

• Two problems with Vista on Satellite A20-S207

  Hello. I installed Vista on my A20-S207. So far so good except:

  (1) stop is veeeeery slow sleep and Hibernate seems to freeze the computer (output only is to disable manually)

  (2) video playback (any type) is extremelly slow. I couldn't find the Vista drivers for the video card (Trident CyberAladdin), so I use the old XP drivers.

  Anyone know how to solve these problems? Thank you!

  Hello

  As much I know Satellite A20 is aged about 4 years and absolutely not Vista capable. Because of this, you should be glad that you were able to install Vista on this laptop. I am very pleased to learn that you can use Vista.

  Please do not write on the problems. The problems described are not problems, but the result of old and not powerful enough hardware. All that s!

• Stuttering problem with Vista on Satellite P100-347 pspA6E games

  I lived several forums and tried many solutions, bios downgrade (up to v2.4), different drivers, using the riva to detect as a gt gfx card, but whatever it is I always make the problem of stuttering in vista. I've recently updated the bios to v4, which makes absolutely no difference.

  I tried to run the games with the smallest possible settings, but it's the same when I throw them to the highest. Most of the games ran on xp with the downgraded bios, but I paid extra for vista and im im going to use it. My model is a pspA6E, 7900gs 512 MB, 2 GB ram, 200 GB hard drive, running on vista (with patches).

  Can anyone help.
  I spent a lot of money on a laptop that does not produce as it should! My gpu overheating also all the time.
  Y at - it something can be done or im reinstall xp?

  Hi gazzoondi! I know that accactly what you mean. I did everything that crossed my mind too, to solve the problem, but without any result. Dosen´t seams Thosiba care custumors here and let their responsibilities to us.

  I tried to contact Nvidia also on a snap with no result... So I guess we're stuck with this...

  If it's a Direct X driver look or a conflict with the sound and graphic driver I know Don t. But if I uninstall parts of theatre and its pilot games that I still have the same problem. My guess is therefore a pure graphic driver problem.

• Problem installation Vista Business 32 Bit ISO on Optiplex GX620

  I asked to re - install a company ISO of Vista Business 32-bit specific on some Optiplex GX620s former.

  These are the only computers that we have. I tried every method of installation has failed to halfway through or simply does not work.

  I tried:

  • Bootable flash drive (this worked the first time but is end of installation even after formatting the disc flash several times). I have been using this method.
  • External DVD USB drive (BIOS is not recognize it as a boot device)
  • Installation on an Optiplex 755, then proceed to the exchange of hard disks. (This causes a restart loop when the hard drive on the GX620 loading, I'm guessing that following a conflict of driver. I can't use the CD we since none of the GX620s have installation DVD players)

  My question: is there another way to install this ISO I'm not aware of, or someone knows a way to solve one of the above mentioned conflicts?

  I know that is a lot to ask for these older machines, but our resources are overwhelmed, and our budget is not allowing us to buy new desktop computers at the present time.

  Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

  I would update your Windows 10130 then Windows 10 Pro machines to make them Windows 10 devices (should you decide to use them with Windows 10). Later, you can reinstall Windows Vista:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/Windows-XPVISTA-%E2%86%92-Windows-10-free-upgrade/

  The Insider preview will soon expire so this upgrade path will be lost. In regards to the blue screen, run the full pre-launch F12 diagnostics:

  Make full use of the WSUS Offline Update Patch Windows Vista:

• Problem installation Vista updated and now the Vista operating system unbootable - help

  Here it is the description of what has past.  Ive been through everything I can do and am now stuck with a code of 0 X 4001100200001005.

  I worked with Microsoft Vista forum group of answers, but I'm not back upward and running if Im going back to HP for assistance.  I hope that we can achieve together.  This all started when started Vista updates failing.  I got the 1 3 install stuck on the 2nd about three weeks ago.

  Here is a list of what I've done so far
  I have an old HP DV9410us for a year which will not restart after installing updates.  It comes to configuring updates step 1 from 3 to about 98% and then stops.

  It then says unable to start windows and start the repair program windows for about 5-10 minutes.  He said that you want to use the system restore.  I tell Yah Why Not.  Then, it will stop and start the cycle.

  The error in the Startup Repair States the following

  After a bunch of tests successful

  Root cause found:

  c:\ntoskrnl.exe is corrupted.

  Repari Action: Repair of files
  Result: failed.  Error code = 0xa
  Duration 6521ms

  Action repair system restore
  Result: Completed successfully

  He then returns to the cycle all over again.

  I turned the clock to October with F10 at startup but that did nothing.

  I checked the hard drive for the short and complete and checked everything.

  I dug my recovery disks I did ago about 10 months after I bought and used to return to the top of my hardrive.  I was all ready for a MAC at this point.

  I went back to the HP Recovery program and tried to restore an earlier version of a well-known operating system.  The Manager of recovery disk wont work so I used the Recovery Manager disk.  There is no old configs to this true its in step 2.

  I'm now trying to perform a factory image recovery.
  Reload the operating system.  It started and got to 13% after 20 minutes and gave me the following error code.

  During this process, I have an error that had the code 0 x 4001100200001005.

  It is the reformatting of repeat of the Windows Partition.

  Is this a Vista update problem?  Have you seen this before?

  I'm doing a factory restore and will let you know if this operation fails.  I just wanted to get this thread started.

  I really appreciate this forum and any help you could give me.

  If you had an error in "configuration update 1 3-3 3 ' which would be a problem with windows update.

  to fix this, you'll need a factory image recovery if you can not access other modes for windows. But youy mentioned that you had a 0xx000x... (similar to code) error... try checking the hard drive and memory modules health... threr could be a problem with these devices, you can access it through the bios settings (turning on laptop, the moment you see hp invent screen, press f10) go to the diagnostics section, run the memory test and that hard drive test

  very probably with the error you have, you might have a hard drive problem.

  most of my clients (I am a specialist of the laptop of beak) with that problem and stuck on a boot loop or may not switch from windows, 95% of them had a hard drive failure.

• Question about Satellite L40 and Vista 32 bit

  Hey all, I have the following problem.
  I have Satellite L40 series 2 PC and tried to install vista ultimate 32 bit, and they freeze only on the process of "complete installation."
  I read in some other forums and found it is not only my problem. I tried with 64 bit ultimate, it's all OK. It may be, the main problem is that it is not possible to install VISTA 32 bit.
  I only ultimate now, so my question is if anyone knows or installed to another type of Vista 32 bit on these series?

  Thanks before

  As far as I know that all new models of Toshiba laptops come with Vista 32 bit. Satellite L40 is offered in three different models, and each one also comes with 32-bit operating system. If you have the recovery DVDs with your laptop is Vista 32 - bit OS. I assume it must be the Home Premium version.

  I don't have a model L, but my model works well on Vista Ultimate.
