Hello

Is that what you have loaded driver SATA prior to installing Windows XP Home edition?

  • Satellite P300-133 - problem installing Win Xp

    Hello

    I have a problem installing win xp to Satellite p300-133.
    To resolve this problem, I have tried the solutions:
    switch to ahci mode in bios and incorporating storage drivers compatibility intel to the installation cd xp with nlite, but none of them solved the problem.

    Laptop computer starts from the cd of xp and xp installation says "program Setup inspects your hardware configuration" and then a blank black screen comes.
    After that, the installation does nothing and waits indefinitely.

    Any ideas on this problem? Thank you.

    Hello

    > switch to compatibility ahci mode in the bios and the integration of the storage drivers Intel to xp with nlite installation cd, but none of them solved the problem.

    The two methods are good!
    You can install the Win XP without drivers Intel Storage Manager (SATA drivers) but in this case the SATA mode must be on compatible mode.
    It works for sure!

    The second method is the installation of the SATA drivers with nLite (drivers can be integrated into the new drive Win XP).

    I put t understand why this doesn t work on your laptop. I think it's a problem with your Win XP drive. Contains this Win XP SP2 or SP3?
    If this isn't the case, then you should use nLite to include min the Win XP SP2.

  • How to install Windows XP on Satellite A300-146?

    Hi all

    I need to know how can I install Windows XP on to my Toshiba Satellite A300-146 since I have windows vista with Arabic and this very bad.
    I heard in the laptop we have a SATA hard drive and the problems of British Colombia, who has not read the material.

    Also, I want to know how I can change vista from Arabic to English interface?

    How can configure LAN?

    Just a question;
    Did you go through this forum and simple threads on this topic before you posted this new topic?

    There is a lot of discussion on the installation of Win XP on laptops with SATA controller!
    The procedure is always the same on most portable models!

    You have 2 options; fade you assign compatible in the BIOS SATA mode and would not need to install the SATA drivers or you let the SATA AHCI mode and would include the SATA drivers using an external floppy drive you would have built a new disk Win XP using nLite software.

    PS: SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager!

  • How to install Win 7 on Satellite P300?

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite P300. When I bought it, I had to this topic Vista Edition home premium. Now, I tried to install Win 7.
    I have the DVD of Win 7 Professional but when I want to boot from the DVD win 7 it wouldn t accept and the boot PC always from the hard drive even when I changed it on the BIOS as it doesn t recognize. I tried with another Win 7 DVD to format the hard drive and install Windows 7 as the normal procedure, but Toshiba doesn't recognize any DVD Win 7, it acknowledges that its original DVD system (hddrecovery files that combines the win vista and all the drivers of Toshiba for laptop, as you know).

    So, how to format the pc and install Win 7 (if you run the installer of win 7 on the computer I install Win 7 but I can t pc format and I still keep old files and I put t like) so please help me if you have a solution for that I thank you!

  • I want to install Win XP on Satellite A305-S6905

    Hello.

    I want to downgrade my Vista to XP because of problems and slow down my PC...
    For example I can't download updates antivirus, games etc...

    I read in the forum that I need some kind of sata drivers and those I can do myself, but someone can help me with other drivers because I use this laptop for an hour and I know not what drivers there need.

    If someone could give me links to the necessary software, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I think that you couldn't find the right drivers XP because you didn t find on the right-hand page.
    Like you probably n t know that this series of laptop (Satellite A305) belongs to Toshiba from US and you have to find good drivers on Toshiba U.S. page!
    http://www.toshibadirect.com/TD/B2C/home.to

    In addition, if you want to install Win XP on laptop thin, you will need to install the SATA drivers first.
    The SATA drivers are on Intel Storage Manager part which can be downloaded from the Intel and Toshiba page page as well.

    But if you don t want to install SATA drivers, there is another possibility to install the XP.
    Just access the BIOS and set the compatible SATA to AHCI mode.

    That s it.

    I install Win 7 x 64 on my Satellite A300-1EG (a Vista x 32) and when I install Realtek hd audio driver I found not the boost volume options (low bosst and terrible thrust).

    It s don't know for me if Realtek changes something in the Win 7 version or if there is a big difference between the audio Manager Realtek HD for Vista and Win 7, but I think you should try to download and install page of the Realtek driver Realtek HD audio Manager?

  • Slow reaction of the media on Win XP buttons - Satellite A300-1MX

    Hello world

    I bought a Satellite A300-1MX about 1 month ago. I had XP installed on it. I installed all the drivers, etc.

    The multimedia keys, however, are a little slow in their reaction, meaning: I press one of them (e.g. READING), then it turns on and outside as normally (at full speed), but then he only PLAYS the song after maybe 3-4 seconds.

    The problem is that I've lived twice more that these media buttons reacted very quickly (so normal speed), and only two times this happened was when, once I played a PC GAME, and once I was using another program.

    So it was almost like they wud answer quickly only if traore to be little RAM used, or some processor used. Do not know well, that's my theory.

    Maybe somebody has a solution for how to get the media buttons respond quickly (normally) and not only after 3-4 seconds.

    PS: I use the windows media player for media buttons.

    Thank you very much!!
    Sasch

    Hello

    It is not easy to say what the problem is here. In my view, it is also important that opinion may be different on the speed, how he should respond. I put t know what you mean with slow or fast, but if the player has already opened the music should start playing immediately.
    When you press play and wait for the application to open can only takes a few seconds to start, and it is nothing unusual.

    Another important point is preinstalled WXP. Have you noticed that normal speed with Vista preinstalled?

  • Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C50-A-1JT

    Hello

    You just buy new C50-A-1JT which came with an installation of Linux Mint, I won't, because it's for my mother in law who barely knows windows, and even less to ask him to learn to use Linux.

    I tried to make a bootable USB key with win 7 installation (that I would do on a normal pc).
    The windows installer seems to load fine, but when I press Windows Installer, I get "a required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. »

    The problem is that my laptop did not contain driver disks, so I wonder what I can do to install Win 7 on it.

    Thank you
    Mark

    About this error message, see Microsoft Knowledge base article:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2755139/

    This problem occurs for the following reasons:
    The installation DVD is removed during the installation process.
    A bad quality DVD has been used to create the installation DVD.
    The speed at which the installation DVD is burnt was too fast.
    The DVD drive cannot read media.
    The ISO file is corrupted.

    Given that you don t use the installation disc but a USB flash memory stick, I suppose that the image on the USB flash memory stick file is corrupt or there is a problem with the support of USB flash memory

    Hello

    You must search (google) for these unique MS patches (KB888111 & KB835221).
    Then you should install these patches before installing the Realtek audio driver!

    PS: the Realtek audio driver can be downloaded from the Realtek page too!
    You will find the most recent version. I remember that Realtek has released a new version last week

  • Install Windows 7 on Satellite A300-1GC

    I got nearley two years ago to Toshiba dvd with windows 7 + all drivers for my computer laptop buit unfortunately I'm not home and I decided to upgrade Windows xp to Windows 7 so I have a few questions:

    1) there is a software (for Toshiba) that I can load after that I have ionstalled windows 7 that connect on the internet will be automately finde and download/install the drivers?

    (2) or by the way, I downloaded the files Zippes 12 I hope they are all the correct drivers for my laptop but it's hear someody who have the files name complite list I need to do?

    Last thing, I'm really scared to get in shape and rest with a computer laptop ko: (...) Thear is a utility that works in windows 7 that will update the bios without risk or u suggest staying with the bios I have now (that I got when I bought this laptop about 4 years ago.)

    Thank you to
    Helen

    Hello

    I have Satellite A300 and use it with Win7 32-bit for some time. At first, I must say that my machine still has original version of the BIOS as your one. It turns out that you need new BIOS if the laptop works well and stabile. Don t change anything.
    Back to your questions:

    (1) this application doesn't exist. After the fresh install of Win7, you must download every single driver, tool or utility and install one by one.

    (2) all the drivers, tools and utilities that you can download on the download page of Toshiba - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Here's my list how to install everything you need:

    -Win7
    -chipset driver
    -Storage Manager
    -display driver
    -driver sound
    -modem driver
    -utility supervisor
    -infrared
    -patches
    -configfree
    -VAP
    Hardware - toshiba
    Control - HDMI
    -WLAN driver

    Everything works well but lacks some drivers

    Adding Vista drivers:
    Toshiba - help - working properly
    -Card reader - installed correctly
    -Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - works correctly.
    Driver - Synaptics

    My machine works perfectly with this installation order. Test it.
    At the end once more: BIOS update is not necessary so don't change anything.
