Qosmio G30: Try to install XP, but the HARD drive is not available

Two weeks ago, I bought a new G30 to Vista Ultimate inside. Many applications and devices based i.LINK cannot run on Vista and I decided to do a migration to XP PRO in time, pending new releases and manufactures of hardware drivers.

I have an original CD of Microsoft XP PRO, but when I try to install it, do not recognize the HD

Also, I try to use in the process of installing RAID HD XP drivers downloaded from the web site of Toshiba with a USB drive as a floppy drive 'A', because I don't have a disk external USB drive, but the start installation process do not recognize the format of stick memory (FAT).

Anyone know about this?
What is the good process of re - install the OS?

Thanks in advance.

Hello

It's very simple.
The XP RAID driver must be installed from the USB FDD drive. You must store the RAID driver on the floppy disk, and then try to install it.

Impossible to install the RAID driver from the USB key because the installer of XP not recognize and support.

RAID installation from USB can be done in Vista!

    Windows 7 cannot see is not my SCSI disks when I try to install. As the IDE drive is showen but is not usable. Is there a FDISK program that can be run to solve this problem from a command promt?

    Hello

    You try to access BIOS and change the SCSI to IDE in the BIOS or Raid in IDE and try to install Windows 7.

    If it fails, contact your SCSI manufacturer for the latest drivers for your SCSI and install it by clicking on load drivers and try to install Windows 7.

    Hope this helps and works.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Msvcr71.dll errors are caused by situations that lead to the removal or corruption of the msvcr71 DLL file. In some cases, the msvcr71.dll errors might indicate a
    problem of registry, a virus or malware problem, or even a hardware failure.

    You can use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to ensure that the system files are intact and replace the file. Follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

    2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    Yes, you need to reinstall the SATA drivers or you will go to BIOS and set the SATA from AHCI mode to compatible.

  • Qosmio X 500 - 10W - can I replace the HARD drive with another?

    Hello

    I have a Qosmio X 500 - 10W with two drive HARD Toshiba MK5055GSX 500 GB 5400 RPM 8 MB? SATA II but is one of the hs so I'm wondering if I can be replaced by a more powerful style, drive HARD 750 GB 7200 RPM / min 16 MB Toshiba courses?

    Thank you

    Hey,.

    Your question is a bit hard to understand, but I think you want to replace the HARD drive with another (faster) model, right?

    Well, that s no problem. 7200 RPM hard drives works, they are a little stronger, but they're faster so if you need more performance without problem.
    750 GB or more are also no problem because the SATA interface is not the limited capacity. Theoretically 1 TB or more should also work.

    Anyway, you can buy the 750Go you mentioned that it will work. :)

  • Question about reinstalling windows on a laptop that came with it, but the hard drive failed and had to be replaced.

    OK, until recently, the hard drive of my laptop couldn't, and I had to replace, no biggie, I really care about this laptop in any case. Then I threw ubuntu top and let it go from there. But recently, I wonder, if I could get windows again for her, for free. I am sure that it is not under warranty, but I could go and check of 90 percent. I have no back ups for it because it was cheap.

    Yes, if the hard drive has been installed you can just catch a Windows ISO-8 8.1 is not available now and make an own Install.Then, if you have the sticker of the product key on the back of your laptop use the product key to activate. Devices with Windows 8 generally have incorporated in their BIOS product key and use the following tool to get the product key:

    Then, you can use the key to activate. In the meantime, here is the link to download windows ISO 8.1 and generate the installation media

    Seems that you need a 2.5 IDE HARD drive.
    I think you can take a 120 GB HDD and the HDD should work properly.

    HARD drive Bay must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
    Its guarantee with a plastic cover and screw. Remove the screw, then cover in plastic and then you should be able to remove the HARD drive...

  • EQL PS6010 online and I want to upgrade the capacity of the disk but original Dell drive are not available, it is possible to replace it with the original brand of Seagate.

    Hello

    One of my largest clients use a PS6010XV storage in production for 3 years. It is equipped with 8 disks SAS 600 GB drive HARD 15'000 rpm and shortly it will be out of space. He ask me full fill the table with hard 16 600 GB.

    My sales representative Dell told me that this kind of upgrade is not possible, the 600GB 15,000 rpm SAS drives is not available...

    My client is very upset by this situation and I'm trying to find another solution.

    Is it possible fill completes the picture with the original disc Seagate Cheetah 15K 3.5 "600 GB SAS 6 GB/s 24 x 7, type ST3600057SS instead of the original Dell disks?

    I can see the Dell drive (P/N 0944832 - 01) are Seagate brand and type is exactly the same.

    Kind eyes and waiting for your response

    No, because it is custom firmware on the brand of Dell disks.  The EQL firmware will be search and reject non Dell/EQL brand discs.  Do not add any disk brand would also void the warranty.

    No sorry. If Mozilla saved automatically each users personal data to their website, this would be an extreme violation of the safety of users.

    There is the Firefox Sync - what is Firefox Sync - optional service which must be put in place before personal data is lost.
