Satellite A200-1WR: can I have Windows XP Reocvery disk free

Dear Toshiba

When I bought my A200-1WR, a little less than a year, it came with 2 recovery DVD, containing Windows XP SP2.
I used Vista, which has been pre-installed, for a little while, until she began to come into conflict with some of my plug-and-play devices, leading to a severe delay in boot, etc. After a few months, I was able to get the laptop not charge at all. Fortunately, the recovery media provided contains XP Pro, so I ran these discs to solve the problem. At first, I didn't want to make a Vista recovery disk before installing XP, but the Toshiba Recovery Disc creator worked no more contradictory Vista, so when I ran the XP disk, I lost the "data"-partition containing Vista factory original installation/setup of my laptop. "."

I intend to sell my A200, so I'll try to restore 'the product' in its original form. Therefore, I need to add support for recovery XP, and manuals. The latter, I downloaded, so I can provide those in PDF on the HD or flash drive. However, the recovery disks, those I don't have laying around. Initially, I wanted to copy my Pro A300 recovery media, but then I would go next door including all the necessary drivers for the A200.

My question is if you are ready to send me the original recovery DVD.
If the manuals could come this way too, it would be greatly appreciated, but as I said, this part I could not solve myself. This site Vista, I followed the route of the "recovery media order", but then I'm charged about 400 Rand (ex 30 Euro). I can understand this amount, if I want something special, but in this case, I'm just trying to keep your product, in their original state. This reflects just as positively about you, about me, so I don't think not that it would be totally unthinkable, if you would try actually stimulate Toshiba sales of notebooks to include all the official drivers. At the end of the day, the laptop will occur at full capacity, which reflects positively on the brand, but besides of that, it will also keep the laptop in your warranty service. Here it provides not only a positive reflection; It also prevents the negative reflection!

It may seem as if "I talk on my street", as they say where I come from. However, I am not the only person who feels this way. HP provides for example, these discs free of charge for the first 2 years after purchase of the any of their laptops. I know with certainty, that very recently, I bought a notebook HP Compaq with a colleague (used on the internet), which came without any software. To my astonishment, my colleague has placed 1 phone call, without even be the first buyer of the laptop, after which he received a tracking number of the post services almost immediately! HP immediately showed the recovery media, without other requests. No payment, even not a questionnaire. So it turns out, they see a recovery outside the Standard warranty support. I guess for the same reasons as those that I just gave you.

I really hope that you can provide them for free, or can I collect somewhere.

Thanks in advance for getting back tome.

Your really

Hi mate

It is s user forum ;) I doubt someone Toshiba would read it

In any case, the recovery disc can be ordered and you must pay for this record
It s not for free and can not be downloaded

I asked my PSA if it would be possible to upload this image, but they said that's not possible because of some rights of copy

You can also use a MS Windows disc clean the Toshiba drivers needed are placed on the driver page

  • 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).

  • Satellite A200-196: can't get all speakers to work with the home theater sound Creative T7900

    I run windows Vista Home premium, on my Toshiba Satellite A200-196, and I have a creative T7900 7.1 System.
    I'm not all stakeholders to work. Only the woofer and two front speakers are currently playing a sound.

    The sound in Control Panel option gives me the options in addition to stereo speakers.

    I have no possibility to choose 5.1 or 7.1 speakers and I need to know do I need a software driver (all drivers are appearing to date), or do I have to change to another option, or buy an external sound card?

    I have only two input jacks, input microphone and headphone output. How can I get all stakeholders to work and achieve the home theater experience?

    Hello

    I Don t think that the sound card is capable of doing 5.1/7.1 since there are many takes longer then a "sound-output.

    If I were you, I would buy an external USB soundcard that is capable of doing 5.1 or 7.1 to offer you experience complete home theater.

    Another solution is not existing. Sorry mate.

  • Upgrading RAM in the Satellite A200-1WR

    Hello!

    My laptop is a Satellite A200-1WR, code PSAE3E-05J01CCE, including 2.048 (1,024 + 1,024) MB RAM memory.
    I wonder if it is possible to upgrade to 4 GB memory
    In the specifications, it is said that the maximum expansion is 2 GB.

    However, I don't know if 2 GB is the maximum expansion for each slot, it is possible to have two modules of 2 GB each, or the motherboard was held 2 GB total.

    Thanks in advance

    Unfortunately, this model of laptop can handle with 2 GB of RAM only.
    Sorry, but move to 4 GB is not possible.

  • Re: Satellite A200-237 ETA-6 with Windows XP

    Hi ppl,

    My name is Sibbe and I am from Holland and here again.
    A few months ago, I bought the Satellite A200-237, distributed initially with Windows Vista. I really enjoyed working with Vista, but everyone knows that Vista slows down your system. Also a lot of software and games do not work on Vista so I wanted to try if my laptop also works with Windows XP.
    So I installed Windows XP on my laptop, no drivers or software. After hours of searching on Google, I discovered that a lot of things that worked on my laptop with Vista don't work also on XP. For example:

    -FN button does not work on XP ((quand j'ai appuyé sur le bouton dans Vista, flashcards est apparu sur le dessus de mon écran) only the green light comes on but the F1 to F12 keys does not work)

    -Toshiba Power Saver ((en fait, cela ne fonctionne pas sur Vista mais c'était parce qu'il y avait beaucoup d'options dans les paramètres d'énergie de Vista) now, on XP, you need to install another program first before saving work?)

    In any case, is anyway how I can do these things work under XP. And, of course, would be nice if I could use the flash cards for the FN key, but I suppose Toshiba has never done those for XP.

    Data sheet:
    Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 2.09 GHz
    2 GB of RAM
    ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600 256 MB
    230Gb S - ATA HDD
    Windows XP SP2 (not yet fully updated)

    Thanks in advance!

    If you have installed XP on the Satellite A200 series you should not t forget to update the BIOS to the XP version.
    If you n t update the BIOS, then your FN buttons will not work even if the correct drivers are installed.

    So be careful and do not forget that the BIOS and other XP drivers designed for you, the series are installed correctly!

  • Windows XP does not start. Can I boot Windows from a disk so that I can recover the data?

    Windows XP does not start. Can I boot Windows from a disk so that I can recover the data? This should be a CD because it doesn't have a floppy disk on my laptop drive. It is maybe that my hard drive has begun to fail and therefore cannot locate XP startup files. I can not start using one of the other methods of starting for example. Safe mode. If I can recover the data, I can then reload Windows and check the surface of the disc etc etc. Thank you all for your comments. Steve

    Lately, I'm leaning toward the Hiren's BootCD you can download here:

    http://www.hirensbootcd.NET/

    On the left, click on download, scroll down, choose the most recent version

    The download link is a little hard to see.  It is at the bottom of the page, above the drop for older versions and looks like this (click this component to download the ZIP file):

    Direct HTTP mirror + Torrent, Torrent Magnet

    Click the "Live HTTP Mirror" link to start the download and save the ZIP file on your desktop of somewhere that you can remember.

    The ZIP file is large, so the download will take probably some time to complete.  Then unzip the download to extract theHirens.BootCD.ISO file that will be used to create your new bootable CD.

    Create a bootable CD. ISO file is not the same as simply copying the. File ISO onto a blank CD.  You must use software that includes how to burn a. ISO to a CD to create a bootable CD.

    File ZIP the Hiren is the file BurnToCD.cmd that you can double-click to launch it.  The BurnToCD.cmd will use the file BurnCDCC.exe to burn the. ISO file onto a blank CD using your existing CD burner.  You can also use your own burning software as long as your software is able to create a bootable CD. ISO file.  More modern burning programs can create a bootable CD. ISO image.  Create a CD from an ISO image bootable is not the same as just the file on a CD burning.

    If you need a simple and CD burning, this is a free software popular software:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your new bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.
    These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When starting on the Hiren's CD, you will see a menu of options.  Choose Mini XP.

    It will appear while Windows is loading and you will be presented with a desktop computer that has the look and feel of the interface of Windows Explorer, you are already accustomed to using.  You will feel at home.

    Using the Mini XP, you can access the Internet, maneuver around your system, copy files, replace the files, run the scans for malware, etc.  There are dozens of free and useful tools included in the CD that can be used to repair your system, or copy files to another device such as a USB device or an external drive if drop in trying to repair your system.

    If you want to see if you can fix your system, describe what is happening when you try to start and to answer these questions:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  • Can satellite A200 - 14 d - I install Windows 7?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200 - 14 d and I think to install Windows 7 on it.
    I put 1 GB of additional RAM.

    Is it possible to install it?
    And if so where can I find the drivers for it?

    Hello

    Theoretically you can install Windows 7 Why not? What do you think about this?

    But in your case I would not install Windows 7 because it s only a beta version and can cause many problems. Moreover, I don't see a reason to install Windows 7. I am still using Windows XP and it s enough for me.

    Normally, you can download the drivers on the Toshiba site, but for a beta OS you won't find not all the drivers on the Web site. If you're searching on external sites as Intel find some.
    Good luck.

  • Satellite A200-17O - how to restore Windows to the factory settings?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200-17O. I want to restore Windows Vista to factory settings, I did not need to backup all the files. I don't have the product recovery CD. When I press F8 and click on the "Repair" option, it will give me all the options, but when I click on the option to completely recover the system (the one on the bottom), it will simply open a window telling me to back up my data, then theres a button 'OK', and when I click that, the window will simply close and return to the menu options. All I want is to return Vista to factory settings.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    Yes, normally you can restore your computer laptop initial configuration using disk HARD recovery option. Therefore, you must follow the instructions here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

    If it doesn't work, you need to use the Toshiba recovery disc. If your computer laptop didn t come with such a recovery disk you create yourself using recovery preinstalled creator tool. This is mentioned in your user manual, have you checked it?

    Therefore, you need a few blank DVDs. I recommend the DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. Many users here have a good experience with these brands.

    If you have any other questions, just after again! ;)

  • Satellite A200 - I can boot from PCI express card?

    I have a laptop A200.

    I recently bought a PCI expresscard HD. Many people have asked this question already on many sites and regarding several different brands and models of laptops. According to anadtech and other techys the only way to do an ExpressCard hd is updated the BIOS. During the installation of Windows it says that it canoe on the device because the BIOS is not able to boot from it.

    Toshiba creates a new BIOS to allow starting the expresscard hd or not Toshiba have a laptop model that will allow already, as im thinking of buying a new laptop but only if this option is available.

    There someone using windows vista/xp knows a way round.

    Hello

    As far as I know it s not possible to boot from PCI express card on Satellite A200.
    In addition these books where you can boot from this slot are not known to me. Only the options HDD, CD/DVD, USB and network, but all that s.

    In addition, I put t know what you mean with PCI expresscard HD.
    Is what exactly?

  • Satellite A200-1CR: can I install Vista using my Vista DVD installations?

    Hello

    I would like to get some answers to my questions...

    I have the satellite A200-1CR (PSAE0) and I want to install vista on my own... not with the recovery DVD but I have some serious questions...

    (1) may I have problems during the installation... (Drivers SATA, etc.), problems of BIOS or Toshiba has no restrictions?

    (2) what problem if I erase the secret (winre) partition and what is its purpose?

    (3) if I do a clean install with my DVD with my vista... If I want in a future close that I can use the recovery DVDs I got it or not?

    (4) to the drivers section for my laptop for each part has 5,6,7 or 8 drivers for win vista... which is good, or it's all the same?

    (5) in general, what do you propose? Are there reasons why not to do my format? I did a large number of formats in desktop, but never in the notebooks.

    Sorry if you tired with my questions and sometimes my bad English...
    Thank you in advance...

    Why not.

    As to the question;

    (1) possibly the Vista operating system does not recognize the HARD drive during the installation of the OS. In this case you must install storage Intel Matrix (Robson package) Manager first! It of a driver SATA and can be found on the Toshiba or Intel driver page.

    (2) Windows recovery environment (WinRE) is placed on the hidden partition and it of necessary to restore a damaged operating system.
    The Vista operating system automatically creates the hidden partition and Windows re installing the OS.

    (3) Yes, you can use the Toshiba Recovery CD. But it erases the entire HARD drive always.

    (4) take a newer version

    (5) generally I put t see any reasons to get in shape. The preinstalled Vista operating system has been configured and all the tools of Toshiba, drivers and additional software should work very well.
    I don't recommend a new format if the operating system is working well.

    Good bye
