• Satellite A200-1AD - downgrade from Windows XP Home edition

  I've read all the other different threads around the upgrade/downgrade to XP, but I have a few questions.

  1. What do I need to change the BIOS before I start to replace Vista by XP or can I wait until I loaded the base XP and then make the BIOS change?

  2. If I try and update the BIOS for XP and it crunches the laptop is covered by the warranty?

  If the 2 answer is Yes, then I'll save a step by step process that I do to change the operating system from Vista to XP. Any help much appreciated.

  Hello Ken

  All I know is some BIOS designed for Windows XP Home edition for computer series laptop Satellite A200. I installed Windows XP Home edition on my A200 but some FN keys do not work properly. Other stuff works well and WXP turns quite quickly.

  I recommend installing WXP without updated BIOS to see if there is a serious problem. If this is not the case, leave such BIOS what.

• Satellite A200-1YO - problems installing Windows XP Home edition

  Hi guys,.

  First of all I'm new here so Hello to everyone here and I hope you can help me with my problems of software.

  I recently bought a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A200-1YO provided with windows vista (which must be frank, pants and IMO too demanding for the machine) and I have a problem with vista, because some of its features do not seem to work, for example, I'm having a lot of trouble getting some of the webpages to open now, they simply hang out.

  now, I didn't install windows xp but I don't have an external floppy drive. This is not a problem but because I can use Nlite to integrate the drivers in a new ISO of Windows XP.

  The problem is that I have 4 sets of drivers: ICH7M_32bit, ICH7M_64bit, ICH8M_32bit and ICH8M_64bit. As I install Windows XP 32-bit while I'm more or less some that I have not need 64-bit drivers but when I install Windows XP by using the modified version of windows xp slipstreamed, what I get at startup is a BSD error telling me that something has crashed on my hard drive , however I can't say which crashed as the screen disappears after 15 seconds if that so I guess there is something wrong with the drivers I use (though I must admit that I'm not sure the drivers 32-bit to use)

  advice and assistance regarding being able to install windows xp would be welcome, as I said above, however, I can only use Nlite since I do not have a usb floppy drive.

  Satellite A200-1YO has a chip with the ICH8M southbridge Intel GM965.

  So you need the driver for SATA ICH8M_32bit.

• How to use Windows NT Backup - Restore

  Hello
  I followed the instructions from Microsoft to download Windows NT Backup - Restore and have some to trun on removable storage management.

  But still no idea of how to make to restore .bkf files from my external hard drive to my laptop that is running Windows Vista. I created these Windows XP by using the backup and restore utility.

  When I go to the "backup and Restore Center" in Vista, it still does not recognize these backup files. And I can't open them directly by going into the computer, then in the external drive and try to open the file.

  Thank you
  Rowan

  Are you clicking on the program that you downloaded?  I guess you need to run this program rather than anything to do with Vista backup and restore.

  "A new group of programs called Windows NT backup - restore utility is created on the start menu, and the utility is in this group."

• How plan 2 separate backup jobs using Windows 7 backup & restore?

  How plan 2 separate backup jobs using Windows 7 backup & restore? I would like to back up some files more frequently than others.

  Hello CasPhillips,

  Try to use Task Scheduler to schedule two separate backups.

  Otherwise, you may need to use a 3rd party backup solution.

• Re: Satellite A200: Question about the Windows Vista serial key

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 and I doubt, in everest, I can see the key of Windows Vista, but it's different to the Windows key in the tile to the bottom of the laptop.
  I change anything in the laptop because I bought, I have use once the recovery cd, but I have not a pirate key or something like that.

  Why this different key?

  Post edited by: Admin

  I agree with the user above.
  The serial key you will find at the bottom of the device is not similar to the serial key that can be read using a few 3rd party applications!

  But you don t need such series on your Toshiba laptop key.
  The restore CD contains an image of Toshiba which is already activated!

• Satellite A200 (PSAE6) - RAM on Windows 7 32 bit upgrade

  I have a Satellite A200 (PSAE6) and I wanted to put more 2 GB of RAM, but tell me the Windows 7 Ultimate 32 recognizes only 1 GB means a total of 3 GB.

  Is this true?

  Hello

  Usually the OS 32-bit Windows recognizes ONLY 3.2 GB of RAM due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS.
  Therefore, you cannot use 4 GB of RAM with Windows OS 32-bit (Win XP, Vista, Win 7).

  But the upgrade to 4 GB RAM also depends on the chipset and BIOS.
  If both parties (BIOS and chipset) are not 4 GB RAM capable then you would not be able to use 4 GB of RAM, even using the 64 bit OS.

• Satellite A200 restarts continuously after Windows update

  Hey all,.

  The model Satellite A200 - 1 GB (PSAE6E) worked perfectly for two years now (with Vista 32-bit).
  Since running windows update yesterday and restart, the laptop summer stuck in a reboot loop, restart immediately after the 'POST' (the Toshiba logo, etc) screen with a flash of blue screen.
  Holding F8 to read the message, it says INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE (0x000007B)...
  Try to restore to a point before the blackout failed for an unknown reason (gave an error).
  Search in Google gave a possible cause - maybe the hard disk driver was changed by an incompatible type. There were some suggestions to turn off the AHCI in the bios, but it doesn't have this option.
  The bios was not updated since purchase (this is version 1.4), but I can't update because it seems that the only update provided by Toshiba requires windows.

  Someone has any idea how to fix the computer without having to reinstall windows? No matter what?

  Thanks in advance,
  Ofir

  Hello

  I doubt that it could be a hardware error (my personal opinion) but nothing is impossible, that you know
  The fact is that a BSOD can be caused by hardware error, but also a serious software problem
  In my opinion, something went wrong during the update

  If you are not able to boot the operating system even by using a safe mode then a new install of the OS would be the last chance to get this sort problem

  I think you should try a new installation to see if this could be a hardware problem because there is a small remnant of risk that this could be a hardware problem

• Satellite A200 - 23P - upgrading to Windows 7

  About 2 years ago, I bought laptop Toshiba Satellite A200 - 23P with Windows Vista perinstalled. Now I want to upgrade to Windows 7. I download Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, he wrote that:

  1) more info at TOSHIBA TOSHIBA has a Web site that might give you more information on getting Windows 7 on your PC. Visit the TOSHIBA Web site
  (I have not found information on your web site on the updated issues)

  And information on the TOSHIBA software as: Disc Creator, DVD player, Config Freeetc... that they "don't have information of compatibility on this version of the program.

  I want to know is - this security upgrade to Windows 7? I have to make some preparations or sth like that? Or is it better to stay right on Vista).

  THX.

  Hey,.

  I know, on the official website of Toshiba, is there no more information about the Windows 7 upgrade because this Windows 7 upgrade offer has already ended a few months ago.

  Before an upgrade or new installation, check on the Web from Toshiba site, if all drivers and tools are available for your laptop.
  If so, the upgrade should t be a problem, but I would have preferred a clean install. Correctly, it will work more smooth the upgrade version instead.

• Satellite A200 PSAECE - fan of Windows 7 (& BIOS)

  Dear community,

  I installed the latest version of BIOS Toshiba offers for Windows Vista (v.1.80 21/08/07) and I'm running on Windows 7 on a Satellite A200 PSAECE.

  The fan is very VERY strong. I've heard talk of a solution would be to return to a previous version of the BIOS but I can't find it anywhere.

  No indication of how to proceed? Something must be done about it, cannot even bring the laptop to the cause of the library of people complain. (The fan was MUCH less noisy before...)

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Go to the Windows 7 power management and change the settings of the most friendly battery.
  There should also be an option that decrease the performance of the processor, and this could slow down the cooling performance.

• Satellite A200-1AX (PSAE6) NTLDR missing after backup retoring

  Hello my computer toshiba laptop A200-1AX (PSAE6) it came with Vista pre installed but I installed windows xp on it.
  Everything went well and I used acronis true image 11 home to perform a backup.

  Yesterday I tried to change my driver letter, and he told me that I can not change the letter.
  Then when I rebooted after awhile my windows would be stuck on the Welcome screen... then I tried to restore the backup with acronis bootable media... after the restore is completed and tried to boot, I have ntldr missing :(

  What has gone wrong? Can I register my cell phone from another format?

  Don t think that it would be able to solve this problem without reinstallation of the OS.

  Read some reviews on the missing NTLDR to error and one of the guys here in the forum found a solution to unlock the HARD drive and install XP:

  Check it!

  If this will not help the Toshiba Recovery CD is the last resort...

• Satellite A200 (PSAE6) - Question on Windows 7

  A that someone tried to install Windows 7 32 bit on aSatellite A200 PSAE6 and using toshiba flash cards and also toshiba value added package?

  Thank you

  I also didn't try to install Win 7 RC on my laptop
  I think you can try this to test the new Win 7 OS but I wouldn't recommend installing if you want to use it as a compensation for Win XP or Win Vista.

  I want to say this version is a beta and there are still many bugs and security risks
  So I would wait for a final version, but to test its ok

• Satellite A200-137 - cannot install windows after the hard disk crash

  last week my a200-137 crashed and now I have the new hitachi 500 GB hard drive on it, even before the accident.
  I have install with Toshiba recovery DVD windows Vista on it and after succesfull installed I have to start windows, it says prepare for first use windows then I have to wait a while and then I get the message that windows setup is not complete. But it is complete!

  After trying to install 3 times with recovert I tried to install windows xp.
  After a few minutes and transering files, I don't get the message no disc found! It is said that there is no hard drive on the laptop!
  But when I start the start menu or the settings menu, I can see the 500 GB Hitachi hard drive!

  So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?

  > So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?
  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say why you can not install recovery image. It would be interesting to know if the same thing will happen when you replace the HARD with the same or identical.
  This title was the original HARD drive?
  If possible, try to get original Microsoft installation disc and check if the HARD drive will be recognized by Vista or Win7 and of course if you will be able to install and boot OS preinstalled.

  Regarding the installation of Windows XP Home edition: it is well known that the WXP installation will start properly due to lack of SATA driver that must be loaded prior to installation of WXP begins.
  Check out this forum and you will find hundreds of threads with detailed explanation why this happen and what can you do about it.

• Satellite A200 (PSAE6) crashes on Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit

  Hello

  I recently had a few frequent freezes on Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition, I think it's maybe the video card (ATI HD2600 mobility). I have already downloaded and installed the latest drivers from the Toshiba site, but it continues to, sometimes, when I'm playing games, the screen blinks for 5 seconds or more and then would become black, completely erased, but the background sound and everything still works well and I am able to shut down the PC by pressing the power button once and then restart it normally.

  It's a minor problem, the major problem is the freezing point, it freezes completely without warning, but oddly enough, he freeze by practicing a game! But freezes on normal operations (internet, office, etc.). I did the tests, tests of HARD drive memory, all in good health, and worse, on the Windows Event Viewer could not detect any problem, simply says 'unexpected system shutdown.

  I'd appreciate help please.

  Thank you

  Hi I do not know if this will help, but you've got service pack 1 installed on your laptop, as when I installed it on my desktop the first time it caused blue screen errors and gave me a lot of problems, including the error messages that seemed to come with applications, I opened and a boring IQRL driver equal or less than but could not work why and then ultimately , I had so many problems that I had to completely reformat my office and I removed my scanner XP and webcam (both had vista drivers) and when I reinstalled service pack 1, it was beautiful, if by any chance do you have anything attached to your XP laptop and vista drivers as these seemed to be what was causing my errors.

  Also a question about your graphic card drivers, I have the same laptop as you and was looking for updates to the graphics driver and couldn't find them anywhere on the site, where did you find yours? I use Vista Home Premium 32 bit, my model number is A200-28 p (PSAE6) and I would like to know if there is a new graphics card driver but can not find on the basis of knowledge, so the fact you have updated your would be could you point a new user in the right direction :-)

  Thank you
