• Need help with the installation of Windows XP Home on my Satellite Pro A300-1DZ

  Hi all.

  I have a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ system unit, model no PSAG1E-OOFOO4EN (think they are 'o' and not '0', circle with slash through it) with WXP Pro.

  I recently contracted a virus inside and as he removed, however it is not good so I want to re - install Windows XP Home edition. I backed up the computer, I have a Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition disk and I have my product key.
  I put the CD/DVD in BIOS to run 1 drive and tells me that I can boot from the CD, I press a button and it loads the CD, select the option where to install windows.

  BUT! I can t go further than what windows does not detect the HD said he s not now, or whatever.

  My question is this: Please can someone me step by step instructions on how to reinstall XP and a link to all the drivers I need to make it work?

  PLEEASE!

  It's simple on my PC, also, please keep in mind, I am best suited for working on cars, I'm not stupid, but my calloused hands search for computers a little more difficult than Motors please not in many computer technical terms.
  I myself am the slow education in the dark arts of computers. LOL :)

  PS. the laptop has a Vista Basic sticker on it, but it is certainly the XP pro operating system. :)

  Hi jeff

  Here's your solution:
  1. go to bios with F2 when you see the toshiba start screen.
  2. Select the arrow to the left using the "Advanced".
  3 press down until you get to "SATA Controller Mode".
  4 change, using F7/F8, Chang [AHCI] setting [compatibility].
  5. make sure the CD/DVD drive is the first to start and F10 save and exit. computer restart when you are prompted to "press any key" press a button and hey presto as before windows will start the installation, but this time you won't get windows you said:

  Set up did not find Ant hard disks installed on your computer.

  Make sure any drive HARD are powered on and properly connected to your computer and any hard disk related hardware configuration is correct. This may involve running a manufacturer-supplied diagnostic or Setup program.

  implementation cannot continue press f3 to goto hell... uh I mean leaving the installation

  And you can continue on your installation of Windows XP Home edition.

  Hope I helped many other jeff's in the same boat. XD

• Satellite Pro A300-1DZ cannot find HDD after BIOS update

  Hello world

  I recently bought a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ flea market.
  Put a new copy of Windows xp family.
  I then install all the drivers necessary own site of Toshiba and the end of it, I thought that it is perhaps a good idea to update the bios?

  OH DEAR what a big mistake.

  Now the netbook won't start windows.
  So I thought it's ok, I'll just start from the begginning and reinstall windows again, but he tells me that it cannot find a hard drive on my netbook?

  aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm going crazy,
  Could someone tell me please how to fix this? Thanks x

  Hello

  I think the value of the option SATA AHCI and hence Windows XP mode cannot find the HARD drive.
  It's because of the SATA controller.
  You can set the SATA AHCI compatible mode mode mode and this will allow you to install Win XP on the laptop without the use of SATA drivers.

  So, you have two options if you want to install Win XP:

  -> AHCI mode, but you must include the SATA drivers
  Compatible mode-> Win XP installation possible without SATA drivers

• Satellite Pro A300 - 1DZ PSAG1E Vista - cannot get WLan to work

  I have the Satellite Pro A300-1DZ with Vista.
  I can't get the wirless to work. I saw this thread and downloaded the driver wlan as above.

  How is it installed well?

  Thanx

  Your Satellite Pro A300-1DZ belongs to the series of PSAG1E and this series was equipped with Realtek 802.11(b/g) 13ch-RTL8187B WLan card!

  You must use a card Realtek WLan driver.

  But just a question; The WLan driver should already be preinstalled. Have you activated the WLan first before attempting to connect the router toe?

• Error 0 x 0 standby power on my Satellite Pro A300-1dz

  Hi all

  I managed to install Windows XP Home edition on my pro A300. and I put a lot of pilots needed back on the system ect, but I have a problem with powersaver one can't seem to make it work properly, I just get an error a bit like the one on this page, if it works: http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/Toshiba-Power-Saver-Problems-t87338.html

  The small window with error 0x0.
  I read somewhere that I need the common modules installed before installing all the drivers of tosh, (I don't have a tosh boot CD)

  I installed my wxp cd, that I bought off ebay, that windows has been altered by the virus and downloaded all the drivers from this site, so my computer is running fine, better even, but the night before does not work.
  How can I change this?
  Can I download the offline installation cd, not questionable torrent site, or is it on this site somewhere under my nose.

  Thank you, I'm moving.

  Jeff

  Hello

  First you must install the common Modules before installing other Toshiba tools or drivers. The common Modules are required to make the other Toshiba programs work correctly.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know what error message you get exactly Toshiba Power Saver. You can add this information please?

  In your case, I would like to uninstall Toshiba Power Saver. Then install the common Modules First, then other tools of Toshiba.
  After you install Windows XP on my laptop, I used the following installation for Toshiba tools order but noted that all pilots as screen, sound, etc. should be installed first:
  Windows XP SP3
  All the drivers
  TOSHIBA common modules
  TOSHIBA Hotkey Utility
  TOSHIBA Touchpad POWER
  TOSHIBA utilities
  TOSHIBA Power Saver
  TOSHIBA Assist

  The Toshiba recovery disc can t be downloaded. As far as I know this laptop is normally delivered with Windows Vista and this is why you must create a recovery disc yourself that you can read in the user's manual.
  But now it s too late and you have new disc order from Toshiba direct.

• Satellite Pro A300-1PW: keyboard is distorted and descends down to the left

  Hi all

  I really hope someone can advise me pretty quickly. I will explain why.
  I got a new laptop Satellite Pro A300-1PW this morning ready for a Christmas gift for my other half.
  During the inspection, the keyboard is distorted and descends down to the left on the left side.

  After running the Setup process and open Notepad, all keys seem to work and that there seems to be no flex in the keyboard, which almost seems to be made in this way.
  As a Christmas gift, I really want to give him the laptop if it is a manufacturing defect.
  Before I found this forum, I went and sent an email to the vendor to record the fault and possibly arrange for a replacement, but can someone please let me know if this is how this model is in fact.
  I know some might think I'm too worried, but the laptop to give me some money and I want to make sure that everything is, or is not very well.

  See you soon.

  Hello

  This problem, you can also specify with the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider. In my opinion, you should contact them and explain the situation. You might get a replacement keyboard.

• Satellite Pro A300: code 12 - this device cannot find enough resources

  I use Vista Business 32 on my Toshiba Satellite Pro A300.

  Recently, I plugged my parallel to my laptop port adapter and the Device Manager, I had a device that said conflict error, "this device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12).

  If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. »

  Can anyone help me please with sorting on this problem?

  TEMI

  Hello

  This is a typical mistake if both devices have been attributed, ports of entry/exit (e/s), the same interrupt, or the same Direct access channel in memory.
  This error message can also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources for the device.

  If seems that the resources are already used by another device, and so there is a conflict with the parallel port adapter that you have installed manually.

  I think you can only solve this check other devices that use the same resources and then that disabling in Device Manager.

• New HARD drive installed Vista 32 bit, but need drivers for Satellite Pro A300-1MC

  "Because my recovery disks that I made 3 years ago does not, I just installed Vista 32 bit and then on the Toshiba site, where I have downloaded all the drivers available for my laptop (a Satellite Pro A300-1MC) on a USB key (that I don't have a driver to connect to broadband on my laptop) and when I tried to open on my laptop a message comes up saying" Please insert the last disk of all selfextracting and click OK to continue. "

  So what I do now?
  Thank you

  Sounds like you have enabled autoplay
  Whenever you insert the memory key USB flash it will try and read the contents of the files on it.
  You can disable this by holding SHIFT when you insert the USB key.
  This should disable the AutoPlay option.
  Then you can go to MY computer in order to access the USB key.

  Note: pilots are zipped so you will need to decompress the content first, I installed a 3rd third party tool called WinRAR to unpack the packages unique.

• Satellite Pro A300-257 while flashing the BIOS

  Hello

  I have a dilemma. I recently installed windows 7 on my laptop of girlfriends who is a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-257, everything went well until I tried to update the Bios. I followed all instructions on the toshiba site had to put the model number in to get good bios double checked and triple checked before running the program, but when I ran the system crashed to halfway through the closed system update and now it wont even boot lights are on cd player is ROAR a few stays on black screen.

  I read many forums and it seems im not the only one with this problem.
  I just got the phone to toshiba and they say im not covered because I does not you can call and go through it with them on the phone, even if at no time did he tell me to do that I followed the instructions of there Web site.
  I also confirmed with them that I used the correct bios but they say that they are unable to prove that and I can put in the wrong information that I did not.

  In my view, there is a program that will allow me to boot from the cd so I don't have to go out and buy a reader external floppy to Flash the bios, I think that his winflash. Unfortunately, all I can find is the executable program on there website which im guessing will not start work.
  Anyone know where I can find the prog to update the bios and the bios file so I can create a cd bootable to Flash the bios.

  Any help will be appreciated with gratitude

  Thank you very much

  Hi mate

  I m afraid there is no alternative to reflash the BIOS to the traditional version of BIOS who can start the BIOS updated using an external USB drive and the floppy disk.

  The European driver Toshiba page contains only the BIOS Win-based that can be updated when the windows operating system. The traditional BIOS is not available for download. Only authorized service partners have access to this version of BIOS and that's why I don t see any alternative as to get in touch with the guys and to ask for help.

• Satellite Pro A300 - blue snow on screen

  After about 20 months trouble free operation, my Satellite Pro A300 has developed an intermittent failure annoyingly screen appears where a scattering of blue pixels, most noticeably on a white background. Generally any form of action (including a proverbial "click") clears the screen until the next time it happens.

  Any idea what's going on? Any help appreciated.

  > Generally any form of action (including a proverbial "click") clears the screen until the next time it happens.
  Means that they are not dead pixels or something like that in this case, it could be a graphics related issue.
  Have you tested this external monitor? Pixels appear on the second screen?
  If so, then this might be a GPU question

  But you can also check if an update of the driver can be useful of course the old driver must be uninstalled and then the new driver update must be installed.

  However, it smells like a hardware problem, so I'm not sure if a driver update that would improve

• Satellite Pro A300-2CW - necessary with Windows XP recovery disc

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 2CW. I bought it with the software Windows XP (included in a CD), which worked perfectly for years. I reinstalled several times this year, but now the CD has deteriorated and it no longer works.

  The machine was originally WIndows Vista installed with the option to create DVD recovery and a recovery of HARD drive option, but I think that it is not possible for Windows XP.

  Do I have any options? Where could I buy the original Windows XP CD?
