• Downgrade from Vista to XP for Satellite A210-16F PSAEL

  Other users of laptops from Toshiba greetings

  I come to you with what I noticed to be a fairly frequent problem for users of Satellite A2xx - downgrade from Windows Vista to XP.

  I am owner of a 2 - day old of a Toshiba Satellite A210 - 16F PSAEL (AMD processor) and Vista Home Premium crashes on me during the installation of an application. So I searched the forum and found a full list of the XP drivers for the series equipped with AMD (my thanks for people who have set up their discoveries). I also found a guide to downgrade to XP, but it was the Intel-based and intended for users A200.

  My question would be if there is such a guide out there for the A210 series, the AMD-based or could someone please indicate the steps to follow for the downgrade.

  Thanks in advance

  Interested, too, that's why push this thread a little, aka a friendly BUMP ;)

• Question about changing from Vista to XP on Satellite A200

  Hello

  5 months ago, I bought a laptop Satellite A200 - 1 M 5, but I face some strange and annoying inconsistencies such as blue screen after startup, inconsistencies with several programs or devices, unique discoveries registry keys, problem with microsoft register server, Mp telemetry and other inexplicable things that make you angry. In addition, Vista are so heavy for 'only' 1024 MB of memory.

  For all the foregoing, I thought strongly to change my operating system from Vista to XP clearer and more coherent. However, I have no idea if the machine will cooperate very well with XP. Nothing will work properly? Incompatibility? Someone told me that, perhaps, the case of Toshiba flash cards will not work. But, if so, how can I manipulate for example brightness? Combination of FN will work?

  Thanks in advance for the help

  I think that your machine should work well with Windows XP Home edition. Many people use Windows XP Home edition on the mobile phones of Satellite or Equium A200 new and different. Before you start to do the BIOS update to the version of Windows XP designed home. It must be 5. XX. Check it out!

  For the installation of WXP use CD Windows XP SP2 home edition installations. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com for assistance

  BTW: before you start checking some threads here about installation of WXP A200 laptop. You can find a lot of useful things.

  Bye and good luck!

• 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!

• Re: Can I switch from Vista to XP?

  I now have Vista, but I would change it on XP.

  Is this possible?
  If so, how?

  Why would it not possible to change from Vista to XP?
  What do you think?

  I put t know what phone you use, but if you can find all the drivers for it on the Toshiba site there s no problem. In the case you're searching on external Web sites for drivers, such as Intel, Realtek, and far.

  To install XP only, you must boot from the CD and follow the instructions on the screen.
  All that s!

• switch from vista 32 to 64 vista

  Is it possible to use the version upgrade from vista ulimate first update from 32 to 64 without formatting the drives and reinstall xp?

  On the editorial side, I can only say if the articles indicate, it's a pretty poor treatment of a consumer

  I'm sorry, but it is not possible to upgrade 32-bit to 64-bit.  There is a technical reason for this: the inner workings of these two versions is completely different, so you need to format and reinstall.  Boulder computer Maven

• Can I switch from Vista Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit?

  I wanted to basically triple - check the compatibility of my laptop current in what concerns the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.

  As a student, I can get windows 7 professional 64 bit for £30. Their moment I'm running a 32-bit version of vista Home premium, and I wanted to confirm my laptop is up to running a 64-bit operating system, and that the upgrade from a 32-bit version of Vista to a 64-bit Windows 7 version is also possible.

  I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, and it is said that everything should be correct regarding my hardware specifications.

  The results of the 64-bit Upgrade Advisor version:

  -"Your graphics card supports Aero de Windows interface.
  -Processor: 2.1 GHz
  -3.0 GB of RAM (I know it's 4 GB but 32-bit vista can not handle the truth)
  -80.7 GB free on C:

  The consultant warn me that I'll have to do a clean install, rather than an upgrade. I'm not worried about it, I can back up my files to an external hard drive.

  What I want to know is, I will certainly be able to upgrade Vista Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, with the upgrade kit here http://store.digitalriver.com/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=DisplayHomePage&Locale=en_GB&SiteID=msshgb at the bottom of the page?

  Thanks for your help.

  You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  Upgrade paths:
  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. Also, you can make the downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate. Andre Da Costa http://adacosta.spaces.live.com http://www.activewin.com

• Installation of Vista x 64 on Satellite A210 - 11 p

  I have been happily using an A210 - 11 p of November 07 until this month, when I upgraded to an HP Pavilion DV9820EA... My A210 - 11 p went to a friend, who came to visit today to get Vista x 64 reinstalled and help & support for everything that could go wrong turn.

  Well... I installed Vista x 64 on the A210 - 11 p at least 3 times, but this time was different... The installation went well... We then installed the drivers graphics, sound and some Windows updates and rebooted... Now the laptop won't go past the POST at all... ESC + F1 displays the news POST, it initializes up to (and including) the mouse then crashes - F2 and F12 do anything - it is literally just inactive.

  Any ideas how to solve this problem?

  See you soon

  The latest version of the BIOS on this machine? It is absolutely necessary when installing a newer operating system on these machines. Vista64 already worked without any problems?

  Maybe it would be worthy to recover the machine with the Vista32 and check if it works, and then reinstall Vista64.

• 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.

  Hi all!
  I have a problem with reciently bought satellite L40-139 with Vista preinstalled.

  Until Toshiba offer all the drivers you need to improvise. ;)

• Downgrade from Vista to XP on Satellite Pro P100

  I have a client with a model of laptop Toshiba No. Satellite Pro P100-434.

  He had a recurring problem, DVD playback that vibrates with the image and the sound is not always in line with the image. He referred twice to Toshiba and they told me that they had replaced the DVD drive. The fault was still there so he brought for me to watch.

  I thought it is best to see if the Windows XP installation would cure the problem so installed an of my licenses. He tried for a few weeks and is now happy with our performance. Then I reinstalled Vista and checked for updated drivers. The problem is back as before.

  Now, the customer wants to downgrade to Windows XP. I understand that it is possible, but have been unable to find out where I should apply for the XP product ID. My client feels terrible about the way it has so far been Treaty by Toshiba and who also believes he paid a Microsoft Windows license. He shouldn't have to pay for another. Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello Peter

  I read your ad with a lot of attention and also hope that we can discus things.

  At first, I must say that laptop must be Satellite P100-434 with PSPADE part number. If you want to check the DVD functionality test it with original recovery image. Achieve the clean OS install and test with the original DVD movie using pre-installed software. In my view, that it must be of WinDVD. Win DVD is used by Toshiba for a year, and this software works very well.

  If there is a problem with the DVD drive, please clarify this with the authorized service partner. Please note: test the full functionality of DVD player.

  Something about WXP: Toshiba supports Windows XP Home edition for this model of laptop and all the drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads. Before you start to install anything whatsoever from this page to the first a download? Instructionsa facilities? document and install all the stuff following this order of installations. It is very important.

  Now something about the COMPUTER products and treatment of Toshiba: with the new notebook, you purchase a license for the operating system preinstalled. This does not mean that you have? specific? key and can activate all that you want. The alternative operating system to pay for the license. Each copy has own product ID. And don't forget, your customer has misunderstood something.

  Treatment of customer is very interesting topic, but one thing I can say for sure: a lot of people hear things that they do not want to accept and is for the most part, the grounds for claims on a? bad treatmenta?. It is very important to clarify everything and avoid all the problems.

  Good luck!

• Questions about changing OS from Vista to XP on Satellite P100-160

  Hello

  I wonder if someone could help me... I don't like Windows Vista with a passion and I would much change for Windows XP.

  My P100-160 provided with Windows Vista pre-installed, but until now I feel of it is poor to say the least! So I'd like to return the easy to use Windows XP.

  Could you get it someone please let me know if there is something special I have to do in order to get XP to run properly. I've been reading through some of the questions on the forums on this topic, but want a nice simple step 1, step 2, etc. to ensure that I do the things first.

  Thanks in advance for any assistance received.

  Hello

  You need description step by step? Come on man :)

  Do everything simply if you want to install the XP. During the installation of XP, you will need to format the HARD disk, partition to install XP on the laptop.
  Then, after the installation of the OS, you could install the drivers of Toshiba which can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

  Please note that you need XP compatible drivers! As far as I know that the Satellite P100-160 belongs to the PSPAAE series. So please choose this one if you download the drivers.

  In addition, you will need to install drivers in the correct order. Placed on the Toshiba page installation instructions could be very useful!

  Best regards

  Goodbye ;)
