Satellite 1605cds: RAM has not reported in Windows 2000

Hello

I have a 2nd hand Toshiba Satellite 1605cds/4.3 (amd k6-2 450 mhz basic system).
It has 32 MB of ram on board and a dimm slot - so put in a memory of 128 MB.

But I read this Web page:

http://fandelem.com/toshiba2.html

where it says it can be improved with a 256 MB memory module!

I have it plugged in and it correctly sees 288 MB (32 MB onboard 256 MB on housing) in the bios.
When I boot from the partition of Windows 98 Second edition, it shows the 288 amount of ram.

.. .but when I boot on the partition of Windows 2000 Professional, it displays a blue screen saying that the bios is not an improved ACPI bios. It says that I have to push the F7 key during the installation of Windows 2000 to disable ACPI and install HAL.

But if I remove the 256 MB slot, Windows 2000 starts correctly without any problem.

I tried to reinstall Windows 2000 by pushing the F7 key during installation, but then Windows 2000 shows that the 32 MB of ram.

So, what can I do to run Windows 2000 and 256 MB module?
The bios is the last that can be downloaded on the web page of toshiba.

Thanks to all and sorry for my English.

Hello

According to your description W2k said to update the layer HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer). In Windows 2000, there are several ways to solve the problems associated with the material (HAL, Hardware Abstraction Layer) Abstraction layer that may occur due to bad detection, an obsolete or non compliant Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) or incorrectly installed computer type or manually.

For more information, please see this Microsoft support site:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/237556

But as I know Toshiba supports the 128 MB only on this unit and if you want to use more ram you can do at your own risk!

  • 1670 CDS satellite - modem does not work on Windows 2000

    Hi-

    I removed the Toshiba W98SE and installed Win 2000 (new installation). I managed to put it on the audio driver using downloads on your website (and it works).

    I do a test on the dial installation upward and that you have installed the modem also since your website (Conexant Soft K56 Data, Fax PCI Modem). This is intended for W98SE but microsoft message is

    The port looks ok. Please advise - is it the right driver?

    Thank you.

    A Windows 98 driver does not work on Windows 2000. Therefore, you need a new driver for Windows 2000.

    I have checked the Toshiba site but your model no available Windows 2000 driver exists.
    I think you have to search the site of the factory of the modem. Maybe you can find a driver or another portable model that has the same modem.

    Good luck!

  • Brother printer has not detected by Windows 7 64 bit.

    Brother DCP145C has not detected by Windows 7 64 bit. What port is recommended for the local printer - LPT1? Windows 7 should detect when the USB connection, but there is no activity. Similarly, the mode to scan on the printer is not responding to "check connection". Thank you.
    Checked the port LPT1 and COM on Device Manager and seem to work correctly. No updated driver needed updated port.

    Hello Richard,.

    If several USB devices are plug-and-play, printers need a print driver to work even on a USB port. I went to the Brother website and a research on the model of printer "DCP145C" increase any responses - are you sure the model number of the printer (not the part number)?

    You have a printer disk supplied with your printer? If you do, try to use that to install the print driver. As far as LPT1 goes, is for a printer with a parallel port (printer), and the COM ports are for those who use the ports series.

    Thus starts with the right model number and look for brother.com right print driver (or use the disc that came with the printer). Try and see if that solves the problem for you.

    Let me know how you fare.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite L10 - Hotkey.exe error after booting Windows 2000

    I've installed Windows 2000 on my Satellite L10 rather
    XP. After installing the utility Hotkey-I get an Error Message at every boot:

    Hotkey.exe - Entry Point not found
    The procedure entry point WTSUnRegisterSessionNotification could not be loaded into the WTSAPI32.dll dynamic link library.

    Same error Message When you try to manually start the Hotkey.exe.

    How can I solve this problem? The system works, but the
    Keys not.
    Thank you in advance for help!

    P.S.: As I read on the web, this error has nothing to do with the missing operating system XP - maybe the HotKey software does not work with Windows 2000. Where can I get a Hotkey software work for Windows 2000 for Satellite L10?
    I try to find it on the download from Toshiba site, but there is that some drivers for the L10 on Toshiba.com and the European server are only readers for XP :(

    Hi turmeric

    All the drivers, tools, and utilities are designed separately for each operating system. This means that you can not use tools designed for Windows XP Home edition with other operating system. You don't find utilities and tools because your device is not supported for the Windows 2000 operating system.
    I'm sorry.

    This model is quite old and has been supported for Win7. I can just say... no luck. A lot of older machines may well work with newer operating systems, but they are not officially supported.

    What should do? Try to check if the drivers, tools and utilities for a newer machine with similar hardware can be used on your laptop Satellite A.

    Hello

    You are able to access the advanced boot menu by pressing F8 while turning on the unit?

    If you are able to do so, you should try to start the computer using one of the advanced options available in the start menu.

    You can try to start the laptop computer using the last known good configuration or you can try to repair the system by automatically selecting the repair my computer option, you can try to start the machine in safe mode to access important data on the HARD drive.

    Finally (after data backup) I would recommend to recover the laptop using the Toshiba recovery media

    Since that time my machine; while starting, is not always launch windows on the first attempt and must be stopped or started several times or remove the battery to get windows to activate.

    The dealer where I bought the machine did a clean reinstall.
    I did a memory diagnostic test and no reported problems.

    Is there a simple solution?

    Hello

    If the operating system has been installed once more and if this didn't solve the problem starting operating system, then I recommend you to check the HARD drive.

    Here is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test that allows you to run some diagnostic procedures to find some problems with the HARD drive.

    Otherwise, I recommend that you install the operating system using the Toshiba recovery disc.

  • printer virtual (ThinPrint) do not install on Windows 2000 comments

    Does anyone have virtual print (ThinPrint) running for a guest W2K?

    I refer to the version of ThinPrint that comes with the drive.

    I can't seem to get installed it.

    I use VMWare Player 12.1.0 - 3272444 and VMWare tools 10.0.5.520 and attempted a "Typical" VMWare Tools installation on a W2K guest under a host of Intel 64 - bit Windows 10.  I used the admin on both sides.  The guest of W2K has disabled UAC and is always admin.

    During installation, I received the following error dialog:

    RUNDLL

    Error loading tpvmmon.dll

    the specified procedure is found not

    The printer user interface

    Printer rundll command failed.

    \Virtual Printer\TPOG3\OEMPRINT. INF' / r ' THIRD: "/m «TP release»»»

    Gateway"/h"Intel"/v"Windows 2000 ".

    Was asked to OK the absence of signatures on the stuff of ThinPrint.    After that the VMWare Tools installed I have restarted the prompt.

    The following log files resulted in the prompt:

    I tried to install the printer via the Add-a-Assistant printer.   ThinPrint is present in the list of printers.   I give COM1:, etc., but in the end is just says "failed".

    I if "install" from the context menu of the OEMPRINT. The system INF flashes just to me.  No dialog box.  No errors.  No printer.

    The only thing left to try is to create a new VM W2K and see if the problem persists.   I'll post back with the results.

    Dear diary, I ended up coming back to VMWare Player 7... and printing, I'm happy to report. I'm not sure whether the installed printer drivers are product of ThinPrint.  That they are not listed as such.  But the VMWare tools install break thru without a hitch and I my print feature back.

    Remind you it's easier said than done.  Here's the problem: VMWare Player 7 is still available for download from VMWare, but after install you it and it phones home page for VMWare tools, it always indicates that the update server is not responding.  According to the Wiki for VMWare Player, version 7 is no longer supported.

    So how do you get the tools?

    I tried to download the tools. TAR that VMWare offers, I believe than version9 dot something.  I had to find a way to decompress.  (That Windows uses. TRE?)  Then I had to make one. ISO to it so that I could mount it and present it to the player.   But it did not work.  He ran quickly and completely in silence and produces newspapers, but I couldn't figure out why she did nothing.    I have to admit that I do not exactly trying to decipher the newspapers set up.

    So on to plan B, ugh: I downloaded the demo of VMWare Workstation 7 Pro, installed, saved the windows.iso that accompanies it, uninstalled, reinstalled VMWare Player 7, put the windows.iso in the root of VMWare Player installation on the host computer, modified my version 7 W2K VM settings so that my virtrual DVD player had the ISO mounted, booted up the virtual machine then I started the installation (setup.exe) tools of the virtual DVD.   (You mind, making a Manage / reinstall VMWare Tools will just try to shout to the update servers and fail.)

    So I'll never be able to update the VMWare Tools, but it's OK because everything seems to be working.  I will make just a point to save this windows.iso so I don't ever have to be in this position again.

    Just for the record, my exact versions are: VMWare Player 7.1.3 build 3206955 and VMWare Tools 8.4.9.30422.  The version of the tools is the one shipped with VMWare Workstation Pro 7.1.6 build 744570.

    So I guess it's just a case of VMWare takes a step backward on W2K.  Maybe they will fix it in the future.   Of course I'm probably one of only a handful of people still need run W2K, so I won't hold my breath.

    Thanks, Continuum, to try to help.
