Satellite A300D updated Vista to seven back

I bought the laptop Toshiba Satellite A300D with Windows vista Home Premium, after purchase, I burned 2 DVD recovery and after that, I ordered the upgrade to windows Seven and updated my laptop.

My question is: if I burn now recovery DVDs, will recover their laptop for Windows Seven or if I want to reinstall Windows Seven I should recover the Vista laptop, and then reinstall Windows Seven?

"Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" is not designed to create the image of the current state of OS recovery.
This tool is created to burn already created recovery image of media such as CD or DVD.

Thus, the second part of your question is the correct answer at the same time. You must install Vista using the recovery disc and later he switch to Win7.

  • Satellite A300D - upgrade Vista - "Setup.exe has stopped working".

    Hello

    I use Satellite A300D with Vista and I tried to upgrade to Windows 7 using Toshiba upgrader.

    After the language selection and proceed to the other steps, it asks me to uninstall a bunch of programs. Some are uninstalled very well, but when it comes to four other programs he says "Setup.exe has stopped working" and it does not uninstall.

    I tried to uninstall the manually, but I got the same message.

    These programs are;
    Setup driver Atheros
    Toshiba hardware configuration
    Toshiba supervisor password
    Realtek High Definition Audio Driver

    So I can't go ahead with the upgrade.

    Anyone know what could be the problem?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    Anyboday tried to run the upgrade as an administrator? Therefore, click on the setup.exe file on the upgrade disc and run it as an administrator.

    Moreover I also upgraded from Vista to Windows 7, but in the manual supplied with the notebook, I founded the information, that it s to start the upgrade directly after a new installation of recovery.

    If you did a recovery facility before the upgrade?

  • Satellite A300D - FN keys and fan not detected

    Hello

    Crashed my HDD (winlogon, MBR, boot,... deleted. Just a disaster), so I have to format the drive and make new instalation of Windows. And it happened Toshiba utility installation. And I can not find the drivers for the FN key. I googled to be called "Utility Flash Cards", but only what I founded is pdf of it. And also my Everest or Notebook hardware control is none of my fans.

    So I ask, where can I find it? Or better... is a place of grand ' ol pack after the new installation of the operating system? Why my fans are not detected by the system? Maybe I just forgot to install a driver. It is quite possible. So, where is a problem?
    And... I'm just curious, y at - there a programe, utillity... etc. which can control the fans?

    I have the Satellite A300D, Windows Vista 32-bit

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    Can on mate, you can find all the drivers and utilities on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    You must install Toshiba Value added Package. That's all that you need for the FN keys. ;)

    But I m wondering about your question about the fan. Why do you think the fan isn't recognized? Everything about the fan will be controlled automatically. You can change only the method of cooling between performance and battery optimized in Windows power management.

  • Satellite A300-1IK - impossible to update Vista

    Hello

    I recently reset my Satellite A300 to its default values by using the utility HDDRecovery. Now, the OS is Vista Home Premium SP1, but I'm not able to update vista drivers or get the upgrade to SP2, so I was struck with my SP1 default.

    I tried installing updates with automatic update, or manually checking the updates under "Windows Update" options. I have achieved anything with the first method (planned updates begin at all), while with the second method when I click on the button "Search for updates", it tells me "impossible to verify new updates; CODE ERROR 80072EFE»
    So I tried to download the executable update packages microsoft official to their download area, but all fail to install.
    What am I supposed to do?

    Thanks in advance, Alessandro

    Hi caiusteblack,

    > So I tried to download the executable update packages microsoft official to their download area, but all fail to install.
    Pack update that you downloaded?

    Of way General if SP1 is already installed you can begin with the installation of SP2 for Vista but SP1 must be installed in the first place. SP2 is available for download on the official site of Microsoft (no Windows Update). Download SP2 and run the install and check what is happening.

  • Satellite A300D - 18 H - Forgot login password for Vista

    Daughter has forgotten its login password Vista for its Satellite A300D 18 H.
    Is there a way to recover the password, and if so what is the best way?

    Thank you!

    There are ways to reset the password to a blank password. I don't think that Toshiba would allow us to post tools like this on the forum, so having a search in google.

    Another solution would be to fix the HARD drive on another PC using a USB adapter, copy your documents and other important files, then put the HARD return drive to perform the recovery and then copy backup your files/documents.

  • Satellite A300D-126 downgrade Vista to XP

    Hi all

    I bought the laptop Toshiba Satellite A300D, model 126, with Windows Vista Home Premium (PSAK4E).
    These days I tried to install Windows XP Professional with SP2 on my laptop.

    First, I made a new partition (D :) for the new operating system.
    I installed the OS XP on the D: drive. I expect to be able to choose between the two OS (Vista and XP) when I start the computer.
    After you have installed all the drivers for XP, I took on the Toshiba site, I realized the SM Bus controller driver is still not installed.

    Where can I get this driver?
    Secondly, how can I choose between two operating systems when you start the computer?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    First of all I hope that you have created a Toshiba Recovery disk in order to recover the laptop if something will go wrong.

    Now to your installation of Win XP.
    The installation of Win XP has damaged the Vista Boot Manager.
    If you want to start the two BONES, then you will have to boot from the original Microsoft Vista disc to repair the boot manager.
    After the boot manager has been repaired and you started the Vista device you can use a tool called Vista Boot Pro to include the Win XP to the Vista boot loader.

    The only way is to search on websites external to pilot because Toshiba does not Vista drivers 64 bit for your laptop model.

    Here are some sites where you can search for it:
    http://ATI.AMD.com
    http://www.Realtek.com
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    And don t forget to upgrade the BIOS to the version that is compatible with a 64-bit Windows OS. You can find it on the Toshiba site.
    Your model belongs to the PSAKCE series.

  • Satellite A300D - overheating issue and it stops itself

    Hello

    Computer: Satellite A300D (PSAHCE)

    Bought my A300D two months ago. It was pre-installed with Vista, which, unfortunately, after a while, became so slow, that it was impossible to get anything done. So I decided to install Windows 7, the other day and it worked like a charm. Except for the fan stops after about 1-2 hours of work. Even if the temperature exceeds 60-70 ° C. The computer stops at about 80 c.

    I do not understand why the fan stops working.

    So far, I have tried the following: I tried to clean the fan with compressed air.

    I read this thread http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46796&tstart=0 on an update of the BIOS, but the one I found, dated February 09 is the same version I already have. Are there any new?

    I read this thread http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46117&tstart=105 that connects this http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD84026Q0000R01.htm guide where there is something called Toshiba Power Saver Settings. I searched for her to Toshibas support center, but it can not be found for my model.

    I tried using Speedfan freeware without results. I work as a developer, and I only have my netbeans IDE and Spotify ongoing enforcement, even if the computer gets hot after about 1.5 to 2 hours of work because the fan stops.

    Anyone have any idea on how I can solve this or something else I can try?

    I forgot, I also put the cooling system active strategy.

    Hello

    If I understand you correctly, this happens only on Windows 7. Is this good?

    If so, you should go back to Vista or let's say the factory settings. I assume you are using Windows 7 beta or Release Candidate, and this isn't an official version of Windows. In addition Windows 7 isn't on the market and there is therefore no support of official rider for the time.
    Maybe Windows 7 peut t control the fan settings correctly.

    But this problem could be caused due to a third-party display driver. Then you should try the display driver for Vista on the Toshiba site, maybe it helps
