Problem installing Windows XP on Satellite A100

I have a Toshiba A100 with Windows XP (German) and I would like to clean install Windows XP (English). At the start of the CD installation normally inspects the hardware configuration, but after that it crashes. I left it for 15-20 minutes but there was no response, and then I had to leave the facility.

The installation guide for windows xp says it has something to do with the hardware compatibility. (I tried pressing F5, F6, F7 to skip this step, but did not help)
I tried the same installation CD on the laptop from my friend (of another brand) and it worked! I wonder what is so specific as to the compatibility of equipment for Toshiba laptop with windows xp.

However, my (German OS) recovery CD works great!

Can someone help me on this issue?

How about using google or search in this forum for similar topics

  • Install Windows 7 on Satellite A100-SK9

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-SK9 with its original operating system (win xp), installed on it and I was thinking about upgrading my operating system to windows 7.
    I just happen to have a copy of the box (the receipt of a friend) and I was wondering if it's okay to use to do a fresh install or I have to buy a drive for upgrade of windows 7 Toshiba?

    Thank you

    Toshiba upgrade kit is not designed for these old models of laptops and Windows XP Home edition cannot be upgraded. As far as I know just more recent Vista preinstalled laptop can be improved.
    What you need is the Microsoft Win7 installation disc.
    What you can do is to make double installation of the OS.

    You can install Win7 on the second partition and test it first.
    Where you bought your laptop? What is the country of purchase?
    Satellite A100-SK9 does not for me?

    Hello

    Seems that you tried to install the drivers bad for bad notebook series.
    Satellite A100-813 belongs to the series of PSAA8E and the laptop was equipped with Wireless 3945ABG Intel and Intel Pro/100 LAN card network card.

    If both are of the Intel chips.
    Check the Toshiba pilot European page again and try reinstalling the drivers!

  • Install Windows 8 on Satellite P300

    As usual rushed in and installed Windows 8 on satellite P300. What error - slow, loss of functionality. How to get back to Vista was preinstalled or is there a way I can fix it to run windows 8.
    Processor Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU [email protected] 2.4 GHz, 4.00 (2.99 usable) GB RAM 32-bit system, x 64-based processor.

    Satellite P300 is plu laptop comes with Vista, but also supported for Win7. Unfortunately, it is not supported for Win8 so, in my opinion, there is no sense to install Win8 on it.

    Win7 works perfectly on this machine so if possible use Win7 on it. in case you want to use original Vista, you must install recovery using recovery DVD image. This way only to s to have factory settings once again.

    The question is: do you have the recovery disk?

  • Problem installing Windows XP Mode in 7 Winjdows

    I have a problem installing Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 Pro 64 running on a Dell Latitude E6510 laptop with an i5 processor and 8 GB of ram.  This machine supports hardware virtualization, and it is enabled in the BIOS.

    Before downloading software in XP Mode, the MS download required Windows validation Web site.  Downloaded and reported validation validation and a successful installation.  Then I downloaded Windows XP Mode (WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe, 481 052 KB) installation package and the package of Windows Virtual PC (Windows6 1 - KB958559 - x 64 - RefreshPkg.msu, 16 692-Ko).  Then, I installed Windows XP Mode; the installation ran without any problems apparent and reported success.
    According to the docs of download site, the next step is to: "... click on the Windows 7 start button , and then select all programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin the installation."
    My problem is Windows Virtual PC does not appear anywhere in the selection of all programs list - believe me, I looked.  There is, however, a new directory called
    c:\ProgramFiles\Windows XP Mode\
    but it contains no exe file.  It contains a file of 1.2 GB called Windows XP Mode base.vhd - but it is not clear what to do with it.  There is also a tutorial subdirectory.
    I tried to reinstall Windows XP Mode (without uninstalling first) but I just get a warning message that the program is already installed.  Windows XP Mode appears on the list "Uninstall or change a program" in the module programs and features in Control Panel.
    I tried running (Windows6. 1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu(Windows6.1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu, goal that throws error 0x8007000d, "The data is invalid."
    If at this point, my question is simple, "what to try next?
    Thanks in advance.

    The right way to install Windows XP Mode, you must first install Windows Virtual PC, and then install Windows XP Mode.

    You must install both files:

    1 Windows6. 1 - KB958559 - x 64 or x 86 architecture that you run

    Restart the system, and then install:

    2 WindowsXPMode_en-we

    ------------

    Uninstall Windows XP Mode:

    Click Start, type: programs and features

    Press enter on your keyboard

    Scroll down

    Select Windows XP Mode

    Click Change/uninstall in the command bar

    Uninstall Windows XP Mode

    -----------------

    Restart your computer

    Proceed with the installation of Windows XP Mode in the right order.

    --------------

    If it does not always show upward:

    Click Start, type: enable or disable windows features

    Scroll down

    Make sure that Windows Virtual PC is checked

    Click OK

    Reboot if prompted

  • Re-installed windows 98SE on satellite 230CX only one problem left

    I have just re installed windows 98SE on and old satellite 230CX and I only have one problem left. Whenever I start windows it is a plug-and-play monitor and try to find a driver for it. There is no connected another monitor and the screen works well. I know this isn't a major problem, but it's just bugging me now.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Hello

    I found the info that this camera comes with Win 95 and on the Toshiba download page under archive, you will find all the drivers you need.

    Try to install the driver display that there are listed. This is a very old unit and I can't tell you more about your problem.

  • Satellite A200-1YO - problems installing Windows XP Home edition

    Hi guys,.

    First of all I'm new here so Hello to everyone here and I hope you can help me with my problems of software.

    I recently bought a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A200-1YO provided with windows vista (which must be frank, pants and IMO too demanding for the machine) and I have a problem with vista, because some of its features do not seem to work, for example, I'm having a lot of trouble getting some of the webpages to open now, they simply hang out.

    now, I didn't install windows xp but I don't have an external floppy drive. This is not a problem but because I can use Nlite to integrate the drivers in a new ISO of Windows XP.

    The problem is that I have 4 sets of drivers: ICH7M_32bit, ICH7M_64bit, ICH8M_32bit and ICH8M_64bit. As I install Windows XP 32-bit while I'm more or less some that I have not need 64-bit drivers but when I install Windows XP by using the modified version of windows xp slipstreamed, what I get at startup is a BSD error telling me that something has crashed on my hard drive , however I can't say which crashed as the screen disappears after 15 seconds if that so I guess there is something wrong with the drivers I use (though I must admit that I'm not sure the drivers 32-bit to use)

    advice and assistance regarding being able to install windows xp would be welcome, as I said above, however, I can only use Nlite since I do not have a usb floppy drive.

    Satellite A200-1YO has a chip with the ICH8M southbridge Intel GM965.

    So you need the driver for SATA ICH8M_32bit.
