Re: Tecra S3 - new 250 gb Sata hdd - windows does not recoginse

Hi all

I have a tecra S3-PTS30-E, which came from the company, I work for which was no longer necessary.

I replaced the current 40 GB with two different - hdd

Western Digital 250 GB WD2500BPVT

Toshiba 120 GB - MK1252GSX

I tried both separately and windows XP pro service pack 3 will not recognize either.

I have downloaded the driver sata toshiba Web site and installed via F6 at startup, windows asks you what driver, windows 2000 or XP, I click on XP and you enter, windows continues until advising so none found HDD

I also tried to download drivers intel after searching other threads, and it does not work through floppy.

I also added the drivers toshiba XP ISO using nlite to create a disk slipstream and while xp is loading the disc, I noticed 'pilot toshiba raid' being installed. Same no result no hard drive found.

Can anyone help?

Thank you

Jin

According to the specifications on this page:

http://reviews.CNET.com/laptops/Toshiba-Tecra-S3-s411td/1707-3121_7-31556311.html

Your laptop's Ide interface, as far as I know on the old IDE interface there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits, which means that the laptop can only manage hard disks up to 128 GB.

    Hello

    You solved this problem?
    Could you install system 8.1 Windows on this SSD drive?

    I think that the installation of additional drivers during the setting procedure isn't necessary since Win 8.1 should already contain pilots essential.
    From my point of view of the few, there could be a compatibility issue (maybe the SSD firmware update could solve that problem).

    What another SSD disk usage? You have the same problem with other SSDS from other manufacturers?

    Your comments would be appreciated.

    My new HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a does not allow a webscan on my laptop Dell Win7, which indicates on its Web page ¨that that the corresponding software is not installed".  I already tried in vain to install all software from the included cd, but did not find the corresponding software.  I was surprised to see that this cd does not start by itself, the single executable that I found was a setupxxx.exe and that did not include the scanning options.

    Anyone has a suggestion to solve this?

    Hello tutoke

    The Webscan must be selected in the tab of the administrator of the Embeded Web Server (EWS). See the screenshot below.

    Help, please. Thank you!

    Hello Riggs614

    After Exchange of this type of major equipment, you will have to make at least a "repair" of XP.

    A repair will not lose any data, other that the Service Pack (if not on CD), no matter what Windows updates and unsigned, drivers that will need to be re-installed later.

    Stay offline for repairs and not go online again without a firewall is activated. After the repair of XP, install the Service Pack (if necessary), firewall, then you must install to the all the critical updates then.

    How to fix XP.

    1. start the computer from your Windows XP CD.

    2. When you see the "Welcome" screen press [Enter] to start the configuration of Windows.

    Note: Do not choose "to repair a Windows XP installation using Recovery Console, press R", not wanting to load the Recovery Console.

    3. accept the license agreement and Windows will search for existing installations of Windows.

    4. Select the XP installation that you want to repair in the list, and then press [R] to start the repair. Setup copies the necessary files to the hard drive, and then restart.

    5. do not press a key to boot from CD when the message appears. Setup then continues as if she were doing a clean install, but your applications and settings are preserved.

  • M40X-250: Installation of the OS does not work

    Hello

    I just tried to upgrade to a standard installation of XP Home Edition to a XP pro edition. When installing the note happens that the facility lacks a mass storage device driver. Later, when you restart the pc it does not get through the start-up phase. Bluescreen fraction of a second and it restarts give me mode without failure of the standard options - previous installation-... Option all lead to the same loop.
    So here are my questions:

    (1) is the HD a SATA drive and therefore not yet supported by Win XP pro (I couldn't find the exact specifications of the HD)
    (2) where can I find the drivers for this problem
    (3) is there a solution anyway...

    Any help is welcome...
    R
    PS. : Yes, XP pro is a legal full version...

    Hello

    As much as I know this laptop came with a HDD 60 common GB improved Interface (ATA-6). In this case you n t need to install all of the SATA drivers.
    In my opinion, it is another question.
    I think you should try to install the Chip Set Utility and other Hotfixes Microsoft. The best way is to install SP2. In addition, the Toshiba site, you will find a few patches. You must install these files in the order that is listed on the download site.

    Good bye
