Re: Downgrading satellite A210-1AS from Vista to WIN XP

I have a desktop computer is fully functioning and a barely work Equium A210-1AS I Avanquest Fix - It 10 works well on the desktop. I installed the Fix - It 10 over satellite and after a day or if the computer crashed. It would start and after the endless restore operations and the uninstall of a program is not necessary and Fix - It 10 computer sort of works with a particular message. I was too mean a charge of £30 for a recovery disk for the Equius which has Vista Home OS. Now he is a true OEM CD of WIN XP I have in my possession. I bought and used on a desktop computer that I finally took to the discharge of the Council when it has stopped working.

Can I create a CD with all the drivers XP downloaded from the Internet just boot to the top with the WIN XP disc and then insert the driver CD?

I think I could activate WIN XP by phone and explanation. Would this work and what are the difficulties? I can't save all data.
BTW, I like XP and don t like Vista!
Thanks for any help,

    No, if you install Windows 7 on the C partition would have replaced the old Vista Boot Manager and disk for Vista recovery option will not be available.

    (> 2) how to ensure that all drivers in particular for all software from Toshiba as "Disc Creator", "WLAN", "BT", 'Recovery disc creator', 'Toshiba DVD Utilities', 'System Diagnostics' will be installed as new?

    Well, if you install Windows 7 and then the tools mentioned as Recovery Disc Creator or commercial DVD Toshiba could not be used because these done software part if the image only Toshiba! So if you are using Windows 7, you can buy such tools.
    All other drivers can be downloaded from the European pilot page Toshiba.

  • Re: Switch from Vista to XP on satellite A210-1AS

    Please please help

    I changed my XP operating system. Just because the software I want to use only works on Xp

    I have problems with drivers

    I can't get the ATI X 1200 graphics card to work
    and I can't the earthnet drivers to install, so I can't connect to internet...

    Can someone give me a step by step help please please please.

    Equium A210-1AS belongs to the PSAFJE series, and that's why you should choose this form of driver download serial number.

    I did, and surprise, surprise. The XP drivers are not available at this time for this unit.
    However, laptops should support the Realek LAN chip and so you can also download the Realtek site.

    Several different sets of Toshiba laptops are equipped with the same graphic card. Check another series which have been delivered with the same graphic card as your laptop and download it on the Toshiba page.

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite A210 - Setup Toshiba Vista Recovery error

    Hello

    Last February, I bought Toshiba Satellite A210. Yesterday, I had to reinstall the system to obtain the original factory using CD DVD recovery setting. I followed the step shown on the display until I came to the scene "Format partitions. Start to copy No 1/5 to 4/5 things that I forgot the name, what happened to copy and suddenly I get an error saying that it could not copy data or an error of data redundancy check failure and "Please press any key to continue" and I press a key to continue, and suddenly the cmd window disappeared.
    I realize it was shown another cmd window on the bottom, and when I maximize the window I don't see is something like

    X:\widowns\system32

    I didn't understand what I need to do. If I restart the system and do same thing again and I get the same error.
    First of all, I thought that my HARD drive is perhaps a foul on him so I used my one other original cd of Windows Vista to install Vista to see if my HARD drive is correct.

    During installation, I see 4 partition and one of them saying WinRE. In any case, I have install my vista. But I need original cd data recovery, so I can install the driver.

    Then later, I tried to use DVD CD-recovery and I get the same error I describe above.

    Does anyone know what was wrong?
    It is very difficult to call from the night to the Toshiba Help Center so I will try to get an answer in this post.

    Thank you for reading my post.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    I got my A210 laptop several times and had this problem once.
    In my case the black cmd window appeared and I didn t know that I have to do.
    So I closed that window and nothing happened.
    Now, I know that I have to leave everything until the installation process would end.

    But listen buddy; you said that you have installed the Vista using an original DVD of Microsoft Vista. Well well, in that case you n t need the recovery DVDs for the Toshiba driver installation.
    All need Vista drivers are available on the European driver Toshiba page.

    Check the driver page, select your model laptop, then you should get all the necessary drivers for Vista!

  • For satellite A210-1AS wireless LAN driver

    Hello

    The system of Toshiba TEMPO attracted my attention on a Wireless LAN Vista for my Equium A210-1AS driver update. I downloaded it, but it is an Atheros driver, while the properties of the wireless connection show the wireless device or a device Realtek RTL8187B driver RTL8187B.sys.

    It's not really obvious why an Atheros driver would be relevant.

    Any suggestions?

    I just followed suggestion for you: If the WIFI worked well and you have no problems it leave it as what and enjoy your life. Nobody says that it must always be updated. I use my laptop almost 6 months without updates and it works well.

  • Upgraded from Vista to Win 7. Cannot type in any field of Firefox.

    I've successfully upgraded my laptop from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.

    Hope you can suggest how I can solve this problem.

    Thank you

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

    • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will lose all personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    If you keep problems also create a new profile.

  • Re: Is it easy to downgrade the Satellite U300-111 from VISTA to XP

    I bought a Toshiba U300-111 and it comes with VISTA Home Premium.

    I wonder what is the best way to this downgrade to XP Pro? I ask the retailer that sells to me, and they asked me to contact Toshiba support. I wonder would be Toshiba offer me a free replacement of XP instead of VISTA? Since I had asked for XP, but the seller told me that they cannot help me.

    Also, I have another machine with XP Pro top (it's a phone from another manufacturer and XP came bundled with it). I intend to install linux on it, it would be ok for me to use the license for this machine to install XP on my Toshiba laptop?

    Thank you

    Of course, it is easy to install the XP.

    First you must install the Intel Storage Manager. This driver is required, because without this Intel Matrix Storage Manager XP does not recognize the HARD drive.
    After a successful installation of the Intel Storage Manager, you can continue the installation of XP, and after installing the OS, you can install the drivers from Toshiba.

    > I wonder would be Toshiba offer me a free replacement of XP instead of VISTA
    No, you can buy an original MS XP

  • Satellite L300 - upgrade from Vista Home Basic to Home Premium issues

    Hi all

    I recently got a Satellite L300 with a basic family OEM of Vista Edition version.
    I have a copy of Windows Vista: drive home edition Premium (upgrade) and decided to use it on the laptop.

    I put the disc in and followed the steps but the upgrade option is removed... It is if I use the product key provided with the disc or not.
    The laptop comes with Service Pack 1 is already installed and the drive I have is released in stores before Service Pack 1.

    My main question is really how can I get my drive to upgrade my version of Vista. I tried the Google search, this Web site, Microsoft Web site and I get the same answer.

    Basically, go into options and upgrade Express. They're all for me to buy from Microsoft that would be kinda useless as I already have a copy.
    I read something to a site that said my drive would have to have service pack disk and I've seen a site with some sort of disk editing program for Vista but I am not too keen to use it and the 'how' was not very easy to understand.

    Also, I am not too keen on appellant Toshiba or Microsoft on surcharge numbers to get something, I already bought and paid for and should be as simple as a few steps.

    Anyway hope someone can help as I really want to upgrade.

    Hello

    I understand and it is really annoying, but what to do now? the fact is that Toshiba has offered this book with some version of Vista. This version should be updated to better Microsoft security and the most recent available. Because of this Toshiba supply with the last option of SP1.

    So now, you try to install proposed update it there long and probably offered before SP1 was on the market. I understand your point of view but, in my opinion, has nothing to do with Toshiba now, and you should try to find the solution with Microsoft. For example you can also get info from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930733

    Clean Vista Home Premium can be installed without any problem. All the drivers, tools, and utilities are downloadable on Toshiba support & download page.
