Re: Windows XP Setup does not work on Satellite A300-1EG

I am trying to install WinXP on this laptop. The CD starts correctly, the message on the system configuration, but then screen turns white and HARD drive led lights. When I start pressing the keys, it starts to beep after I pressed several keys.

I did install and use Windows XP on this laptop, but I removed it to try Win7 RC and recently I deleted the partition and the partition recovery (WinRE) and created a single instead NTFS partition and now I have this problem.

PS
It is * not * SATA problem, Installer is not is the text 'blue '.

Hello

Are you sure that the question is not related to the lack of driver SATA (if SATA is set to AHCI in the BIOS)?

Usually it should not have a problem with the installation you are going to install the operating system without the SATA drivers but the SATA mode must be changed to a compatible or you install the OS with the drivers SATA and SATA AHCI value mode.

Check it!

  • Only the left speaker does not work on Satellite A300

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite A300: the left speaker does not work but the right to a good job.

    I think that this is not a software problem because reinstalling driver does not solve the problem, and I have the same problem with a Ubuntu live CD, also is not a sound card problem because his work well with a headphones or an external speaker.

    The cause is probably a coward of connection between the left speaker and sound card.

    Please tell me what to do.
    I can fix it without sending the laptop of Toshiba ASP?

    Hello

    If you ask for an opinion, so here's one;
    I think that it s speaker malfunction, I doubt that it s a loose connection or something like that and I would not recommend trying to fix this problem yourself.
    First of all, know all you n t that's exactly wrong, and second, you will lose your warranty and could damage other parts if you would disassemble the laptop.

    In this case, the ASP in one and only one good way to solve this problem.
    Contact the guy and ask him for the handling of the Fryer!

  • Drivers for Windows XP Wireless does not work on Satellite A200-1WR

    Hello

    I had installed XP on my laptop (model name: Satellite A200-1WR) (model No.:PSA3E3 - 05J01CCE), and then I downloaded all the drivers for this operating system from toshiba support page.

    When I installed those wireless, it has begun to settle, but finally it did not complete properly... after that I tried to install drivers from intel are supported on the page. Intel PROSet/Wireless "but with that program finishes installing, but then saids OS that there is a problem with the cameras...
    I don't know what to do now, you have an idea?

    Hello and thanks!

    Hello Miguel

    To be honest, I can't believe this. The WLAN drivers are offered for a long time on the Toshiba support page and if there is a problem with the driver itself Toshiba has had time to react and offer the best version.

    Anyway, Utility Intel ProSET offers to set up the WLAN connection. To be honest you do not have it at all because the WIFI connection can be set up very easy with Windows settings. At first make sure that the WLAN device is correctly enabled combination of keys (FN + F8 to use).

    Hey,.

    What you mean exactly if you write about the replacement of the lamp if you press the buttons of enlightenment? Change the color or what's happening exactly on the laptop?
    Normally the buttons of the illumination and the XP to Toshiba control controls pilot, utilities, etc.

    Using the FN + F2 key combination you can change between the profiles of different powers. Therefore, you need Toshiba Power Saver that can be downloaded on the page of Toshiba. It s really a tool where you can adjust the power and cooling settings.

  • Windows media player does not work as no driver DVD

    Had to format drive (trojan) & reinstall Windows XP home. Now Windows media player does not work as no DVD driver download from Toshiba site?

    Hello

    Usually the Windows media Player is not able to read DVD movies IF no plugins were installed.
    To watch DVDs, you can use programs such as WinDVD or PowerDVD.
    These programs are designed for the DVD play!

    But you can also visit the Microsoft Web site and search plug-ins for Windows Media player.
    Then you can download and install to play a DVD with WMP
