Satellite A210 - Downgrade from Vista to XP - a few more missing drivers

• Satellite A210-downgrade from VISTA to XP Pro SP2 - unknown base system device

  I recently bought a laptop. On the Toshiba product page, it is listed as Satellite A210-199 (PSAFGE-05M00FG3). If I followed the link to the drivers page, he is listed as Equium A210 (PSAFGE-05M00FG3).

  the laptop came with VISTA Home premium, I don't like / want, but works perfectly. After complete installation of Windows XP SP2 home edition Professional, (latest updates, all the drivers of Toshiba home page, etc.), hardware device Manager lists a "DEVICE BASIC SYSTEM" under "system devices", for which he cannot find drivers (Yes, it automatically searches on the internet and that did not help either).

  I tried to uninstall the device and restart it, just to see what happens. And I got the ball from the standard taskbar with 'new hardware found '. Windows still do not find the drivers for it, and it still lists as a yellow exclamation in the hardware device manager. The only difference is that now he is no longer in the "system devices" section, but instead, it's an "unknown device" in the "other devices" section (you know, the big icon question yellow mark)

  After a thorough cleaning is reinstalled, it is always an "unknown device" under the heading "other devices."

  EDIT: maybe I should also mention that when I install graphics and sound card, says windows drivers I changed some important system files and I have to put the original cd with kit WXP SP2.

  Have you installed all the drivers provided on the European driver Toshiba page?

  I mean divers for card reader controller, AMD processor driver, Driver Modem, infrared Driver, etc.

  Please check all these drivers!

• Satellite U400 - Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hello guys,.

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite U400/03 s with a pre-installed version of Vista business & do not like. It came with a recovery disk for Windows XP Pro product. This confused me a bit. Can I downgrade Vista Business with XP Pro?

  My next question is, if I can downgrade to XP Pro I need registry XP with Mircosoft?

  Also, if I do not need to register with Mircosoft XP, where can I get the registration key of?

  Greatly forward a response.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  A downgrade from Vista to XP is possible. Why not?
  But as far as I know, so you need to reinstall the full specifications but in my opinion, this isn't a problem because you have the XP Recovery disk. Just boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen.

  But before that, you you should burn the Windows Vista recovery disk. How do you know this? You need to start only the Toshiba recovery disc creator and you need a blank DVD. Then the Vista recovery disk will be created, and if you want new Vista, you must start only on this disc. That s all because it contains the settings factory and if all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

  If you have installed XP you must register it on Microsoft. It is not necessary.
  AFAIK, you must enter a product key. It of already on the recovery disk.

• Satellite A350 - Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hello

  Can some guide me in degardin Satellite A 350 from Vista to XP?

  Hello!

  And what do you know?

  If you want to install Windows XP on the laptop, you must only start since the installation of the disk and follow the instructions on the screen everything that s!

  But don t forget to install the SATA drivers. Otherwise I think that your HARD drive will be not recognized.
  And before installing XP you must burn the Toshiba Recovery disk if you didn't already. So, you can restore the factory settings whenever you want.

  Hello!

  A downgrade is possible if you perform a new installation.
  If had to format the HARD disk when you start the installation with XP.

  I have a Satellite L300 and Windows too and I downloaded the driver from the Toshiba website.

• Equium A210 downgrade from Vista to XP - drivers need

  Hello

  I have spent in my series of satellite a210 to Xp to make it run faster, but I have a problem with my graphics, install the drivers that they used on the website of ati and when I click on the link on the toshiba site to get it takes 11 hours to download the drivers

  y at - it all garentee that these will even work, and is it possible that I can get these and also my audio drivers all faster...

  Thanks in advance

  floriane

  Toshiba drivers for this laptop you will find ONLY the European Toshiba page.
  The server seems to be overloaded. Try to download the driver later; between 23:00 and 08:00.

  With regard to the ATI graphics driver from the ATI page.
  This driver is not designed for graphics cards for laptop computer and so you can not install it. The original GPU ATI driver doesn t supports protection against overheating as the graphics drivers from Toshiba. The overheating protection is necessary and important, because mobile GPUS do not have huge cooling modules like graphics cards to office.

• Satellite A500 - downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hi all!
  I received the laptop Satellite A500 with preinstalled Vista, is it possible to install XP even if Toshiba doesn't have any drivers for XP?
  Thank you!

  Generally Yes, but with the drivers, may be a little more problematic.
  Please don t start with the installation of Windows XP Home edition.
  Tell us in a first time what A500 you exactly (A500-xxx).

  What we can do is check if another model of phone has the same or similar hardware configuration. Then we can use drivers of another model of laptop that you supported WXP.

• Re: Downgrading satellite A210-1AS from Vista to WIN XP

  I have a desktop computer is fully functioning and a barely work Equium A210-1AS I Avanquest Fix - It 10 works well on the desktop. I installed the Fix - It 10 over satellite and after a day or if the computer crashed. It would start and after the endless restore operations and the uninstall of a program is not necessary and Fix - It 10 computer sort of works with a particular message. I was too mean a charge of £30 for a recovery disk for the Equius which has Vista Home OS. Now he is a true OEM CD of WIN XP I have in my possession. I bought and used on a desktop computer that I finally took to the discharge of the Council when it has stopped working.

  Can I create a CD with all the drivers XP downloaded from the Internet just boot to the top with the WIN XP disc and then insert the driver CD?

  I think I could activate WIN XP by phone and explanation. Would this work and what are the difficulties? I can't save all data.
  BTW, I like XP and don t like Vista!
  Thanks for any help,

• Satellite A300 - Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hi all
  I just bought a new Satellite A300 laptop, preloaded with VISTA with XP Downgrade option.

  I finished the VISTA (Setup) and the recovery of the DVD. Now, I really want to downgrade to Windows XP, using the supplied with the Toshiba laptop recovery CD, but the instructions are vague.
  I tried F12 at startup and select CD/DVD as the boot, but it seems to hang on the black screen.

  There are files on the disc (3.2 GB) I covered it on another PC. I also tried the option of recovering your system start-up (F8), but it does not determine that the drive is a recovery / disk backup. I don't want to just run right XP installation of my copy of license of Volume for obvious reasons.

  Does anyone have information / procedure on how to switch using the Toshiba provided CD?

  Any help gratefully received.
  With our thanks,
  Stu.

  Hello!

  You hear that the drive reads the disc XP if you boot from it? What is the computer hangs on empty screen or if you get an error message?

  You can boot from another drive? Maybe the downgrade does not work properly or it s a problem with CD/DVD player. Check it!

  Sorry, but at the moment I can t tell more.

  Good bye

• Sound card is not after the downgrade from Vista to Xp on Equium L350

  Hi I have a Finalis L350 laptop computer and I've recently downgraded from Vista to XP.

  All other drivers work very well outside of my sound card.

  Does anyone know where to find the drivers I need for my laptop?

  I know what we call drivers

  VIA AC 97 Audio Controller (WDM and SIS 7018 Audio Driver)

  Only problem is that I don't know what those who work with my Toshiba L350 - 10L

  There are different versions of these drivers. No one knows everything everyone who it is?

  Thanks in advance :)

  Hello

  If you download the latest driver from realtek site (which belongs to this sound card since it s a realtek card) you can't do anything wrong. Just check www.realtek.com and download the latest being.

• Downgrade from Vista to XP for Satellite A210-16F PSAEL

  Other users of laptops from Toshiba greetings

  I come to you with what I noticed to be a fairly frequent problem for users of Satellite A2xx - downgrade from Windows Vista to XP.

  I am owner of a 2 - day old of a Toshiba Satellite A210 - 16F PSAEL (AMD processor) and Vista Home Premium crashes on me during the installation of an application. So I searched the forum and found a full list of the XP drivers for the series equipped with AMD (my thanks for people who have set up their discoveries). I also found a guide to downgrade to XP, but it was the Intel-based and intended for users A200.

  My question would be if there is such a guide out there for the A210 series, the AMD-based or could someone please indicate the steps to follow for the downgrade.

  Thanks in advance

  Interested, too, that's why push this thread a little, aka a friendly BUMP ;)

• Satellite L350-170 - downgrade from Vista to XP

  Laptop: Satellite L350-170
  Part No.: PSLD8E

  Heya I write about the downgrade from Vista to XP.

  I play world of warcraft online game, I think that my laptop is good enough to run it, but I get little FPS (Frames Per Second) I do belive Vista drains your computer and is no friendly case like performance than XP. I have Vista Home Premium, I was trolling internet reading how to etc... Some forums said that some manufacturers of computer/laptop can provide a Vista 2 XP disks. I was wondering does toshiba? If this is not the case, how it would be difficult to downgrade from Vista? Is there a risk of bricking my laptop? could u do a list of things that I would need and a guide step by step on how downgrade but remembering I'm not a computer very know how nobody so keep it very basic =)
  Also - what is void your warranty? I would be able to send my laptop for toshiba and they do?

  Take advantage of my wall of text
  Thanks in advance for the help

  Hello!

  Downgrade from Vista to XP isn't very difficult and it should be possible that you can do yourself.

  You need at least one drive in Microsoft Windows XP with SP2. Boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. But you need the SATA drivers, the computer can recognize the HARD drive. For drivers, you need Intel Storage Manager, which can be downloaded on the site of Toshiba and this is workaround step by step how to do this:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

  If you have installed XP, you must install all the drivers and tools for this. All what you need you can find on the Toshiba site:

• Downgrading from Vista to Windows XP Home in Satellite P200-16 b

  Hi people!

  I wonder if someone has already tried to downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP. I have a Satellite P200-16 b.

  Hello

  I used the search option and found many threads on the downgrade from Vista to XP on Satellite P200 PSPB0E

  All Toshiba drivers are published on the European driver Toshiba page.
  Of course, you won't find additional software and programs like WinDVD, etc. insofar as these software are only a part of the Toshiba recovery image and as I guess are not to free them.

  An important note; you need to install XP drivers as mentioned in the installation instructions txt file. This doc is also found on the Toshiba driver page!

  Then you should not get any trouble of installation.

  Best regards and happy new year 2008 :D

• Satellite L300 PSLB8A - cannot locate the WLan adapter after downgrading from Vista to XP

  Model - L300 Satellite PSLB8A-01F004
  Australian model
  Place of residence current UK

  Happy new year to you all. I have a problem with the adapter wireless following a downgrade from Vista to XP Pro home. Device Manager indicates that a network adapter, which is the LAN and it does not work properly.

  I have two points with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

  I find all the major engines of the Toshiba Australia but he lists three (I think) site possible WLAN - Atheros, RealTek, and one of the other manufacturers.

  I tried all three without success but am willing to acknowledge that I can have a mistake, perhaps by installing all three drivers at the same time for example.

  The indicator on the front of the box portable wireless lights on or off with the hard switch setting.

  I am also unable to locate the display of all available wireless netrworks, this can be a symptom of the driver is not installed.

  I tried to locate the wireless card, but it doesn't seem to be accessible through the background panels, including the Panel of RAM module.

  Any ideas please?

  > I have two Articles with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

  The Ethernet controller is the WLAN adapter.
  I guess that the WLan driver is missing and so the wireless network card does not appear under network adapters
