• Satellite A200: How to restore Vista back

  Jin

  I have a new a200.
  After a few fews on Vista I installed Windows xp.
  Now, I put the Vista (without xp) from the recovery partition.

  How can I do this?

  Michael

  You n t need to install the Vista partition but the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  Just put it in the CD/DVD drive and boot from this CD.

  Notepad starts from the CD and the recovery CD will format the HARD drive!
  The entire procedure will take about 10 minutes. Then the laptop will be set back to factory settings.

• Satellite A200 - how to replace Vista with XP?

  I received a Satellite A200, because the owner was heartily sick of Windows Vista which came installed on it. Everything I have heard talk about Vista convinces me that I don't want to have anything to do with it. In addition to my wife - who will use the computer, serves to XP and wants to continue to use it.

  After a day and a half looking for instructions on how to get the A200 to boot from a CD on which SATA drivers required as well as the files of XP installation disc was compiled AND burn 4 CD, I can't always get things working!

  Please... surely someone in the Toshiba Land has successfully dealt with this problem before! Guess I'll try tomorrow, but some help would be appreciated of course.

  Hi spktrm,.

  Yes, you re right and you must integrate the SATA drivers in the XP installation disc. Therefore, you will need to download the Intel Storage Manager driver package that contains this SATA driver you need. Here in the forum there is already an article interesting how to proceed:
  [How to integrate the AHCI SATA driver during the installation of Windows XP? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=38]

  Alternative you can install XP without this driver if you change the HARD drive in the BIOS from AHCI Compatible. Then, you use the normal Microsoft Windows XP disk. ;)

• Satellite A200: How to get old setting for touchpad

  Last Saturday, I bought my A200 satellite with Vista Home Premium. I found that I could set the properties for the touchpad via Control Panel-> mouse and (on the last tab)-> advanced settings.

  A few hours later the last tab was suddenly replaced by a tab named 'Device settings' and I left there are tabs with settings for a standard mouse instead for the touchpad.

  Now, my question is: How can I get the old situation, so that I can change the settings for the touchpad?
  Michel

  Have you tried to redefine the windows about to start?
  It would be interesting to know if this will bring back the button early state.

  Have you tried reinstalling the driver for the Touchpad? Check it!
  Delete the old and after restarting again install the Toshiba page!

• I come to me on my computer and everything was gone. All my files, shortcuts and backround have simply disappeared. It's like I've never been on my computer before. I have nothing! How to get everything back?

  I come to me on my computer and everything was gone. All my files, shortcuts and backround have simply disappeared. It's like I've never been on my computer before. I have nothing! How to get everything back?

  You have been discharged into a temporary user account. It may be a glitch, or your user account may be damaged. First try a system restore when things worked. If it suits it, fine. If it is not then your account is damaged and the best thing to do is to create a new user account and copy your data from the old to the new. I would also like to do a Chkdsk and then some hardware diagnostics on the hard drive and RAM to make sure that the material is solid.

  CHKDSK - click here to open the computer. Right click on the hard drive you want to check, and then click Properties. Click on the Tools tab and then, under error-checking, click check now. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  To automatically repair problems with files and folders that the scan detects, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will simply report a problem, but not to fix them.

  To perform a full disk check, select search and attempt to recover bad sectors. This scan is trying to find and repair physical errors on the hard drive itself, and it may take much longer to complete.

  To check for errors file and the physical errors, select both automatically fix errors in file system and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

  Click Start.

  Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.

  Note: If you select automatically errors in file system of fix for a disc that is used (for example, the partition that contains Windows), you will be prompted, see the disk check for the next time you restart your computer.

  Corrupt user account - if your single administrative user account is damaged (and therefore have what one user account is A Bad Thing), you must log on to the built-in Administrator (disabled by default in Vista) account. From there, you can create a new user account for yourself. In these cases, I prefer not to copy the whole profile to a new way to do not copy the bits corrupt. I prefer a new user account to copy the data (documents, photos, emails, etc.). Here are the instructions to do this. I assumed that you had only an administrative account, then you might want to take a look at the "general recommendations for setting Up user accounts in Vista" at the end of this post.

  All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

  Activation of the built-in administrator.

  Method 1. If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes [Enter]

  If you do not have a Vista installation DVD, you can either make a bootable DVD of Vista repair in the file at this link:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD.

  After net user, remove the bootable CD and restart the computer. You will now see an icon for administrator on the Welcome screen. Connect to this account.

  Method 2. Or you can use NTpassword to enable the built-in administrator. In both methods, you need third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

  http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/

  B. create a new user account for yourself and by copying data from your damaged to her user account

  1. you are now connected to the built-in Administrator account. Go to control panel > user accounts and create a new Standard user for your daily work. Let's call it "Sheldon" for this example. Also create an administrator user, called 'CompAdmin' (or 'Tech' or similar).

  4 Ouvrezunesession 'Sheldon' once for profile files are created. Now log off 'Sheldon' and 'CompAdmin '. In "CompAdmin", disable the built-in security administrator. Do this from a command prompt:

  Start > Search > type: cmd
  When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator". Provide the password/OK to the UAC prompt. Now, you will get the command prompt. Type:

  NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter] and exit the command prompt.

  5. always in 'CompAdmin', you want to open two windows explore side by side. Open computer and navigate to C:\Users\old-corrupted-account. Now, do that again, but navigate to C:\Users\Sheldon. Copy the data from 'old-corrupted-account' on records in 'Sheldon '. Remember your Favorites, bookmarks (if you use Firefox) and by e-mail if you use an email like Windows Mail client.

  6. When you are finished, log in to "Sheldon. All your stuff should be there. When you are sure to have what you need, you can remove the old man-corrupted-account control panel > user accounts.

  General C. recommendations for creating users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  Hi Peter, to activate different bars on and outside, including the Menu bar, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bar (s) there:

  • Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
  • Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
  • in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)

  To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

  Is - that you are looking for?

  If something isn't quite right, it is possible that an extension has been tweaking the menu/toolbar area...

• I TB 24.6.0 and I deleted the bar menu or a tool of my address book and I can not understand how to get it back.

  I'm trying to understand how to efficiently copy a contact so I can add the contact information to an e-mail. While experiences I disabled the menu bar or the toolbar in my address book, and now I can't figure how to get it back. So we can say, I have two questions I would welcome suggestions:

  1. How can I get my menu/return tool bar in my address book?

  2. How can I effectively copy and paste contact information?

  Sounds like a good plan. Version 31 and above all is a mess right now. I stay at v24.6 until they get the problems developed. Version 24.7 went out before v31, but I've never had one so I don't know anything abut it or what fixed it.

  This is the page to previous version.
  http://FTP.Mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/Thunderbird/releases/
  Find the version you want and click on that selection.
  You want to select your operating system. Win32
  Then the language. EN-US
  Then, run the .exe file.

  Your profile with all your emails and settings are separated although they should be performed when you install the older version. Make a backup is not a bad idea at any time, or just to be safe on the version change. I use Mozbackup. http://mozbackup.JasnaPaka.com/

  Automatic update options are found in Tools-Options-update.
  I usually set mine to ask first, but with the V31 disorder, I have disabled the option to control even. I want to assure you that I do not get this version for a while.

• How to get Vista 64 Bit from Toshiba Qosmio F50 - 10K-

  Hello

  A few days ago, I bought Qosmio F50 - 10 K but with Vista Ultimate 32 Bit.
  It does not satisfy me
  Does anyone know how to get Vista Ultimate 64 Bit from Toshiba?

  This version has been developed for the Poland, but in this country there is no office representative or something like that. There are only distributors or shops who import laptops of distributors abroad.

  Hello

  You won't get a Toshiba 64-bit Vista.
  What you can do is to buy the operating system Vista 64 bit full, original and reinstall instead of Vista 32-bit, which is already installed on your laptop.

  I think 64-bit drivers for Toshiba Qosmio F50 Vista can be downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page!

  My daughter deleted the Realtek on my Windows 7 - How to get her back?

  Try to use the system restore. There should be a restore before your daughter point done uninstalling.

  Choose the point just before the uninstall was made.

  This should restore your PC back as it was.
