• Re: Questions about reinstalling Windows XP

  Hello...
  I have a portable satellite, and I must confess that I do not understand why everything should be formatted when reinstalling the system.
  I have several questions if someone could help please.

  Is it possible to reinstall Windows without losing programs installed?
  If I use the restore CD, all partitions will be deleted or only C:?

  Thank you very much!!

  > Is it possible to reinstall Windows without losing programs installed?
  No, because programs written entries in the Windows registry and sometimes in the Windows folder.
  If you need to reinstall all programs after reinstallation of Windows.

  > If I use the restore CD, all partitions will be deleted or only C:?
  If you use the recovery disk will be formatted the whole HARD drive then back up your data first.
  After reinstalling Windows, you save your data on the HARD disk again.

• Satellite L750D - 1CP - how to reinstall Windows

  Hi all

  I had my Toshiba for three years, which means that it becomes slower and fuller every day. I bought the laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed, so I never received a disc to re - install Windows if wanted. But at this point, I am a lot would like to reset my laptop to factory default, delete everything (installed programs, photos, downloads, data, etc.) and start from scratch, as if I just bought the laptop.

  Could someone explain how to do this? As there must be a way to start over once again, re - install Windows and start over with a laptop completely empty...?

  Looking forward to all the answers!

  Thank you very much

  Hello. There are three ways for you to reinstall Windows:

  First of all. Plug your AC cable and shut down your laptop. Then he turns on again and press 0 (zero, not on the NUM pad). Wait for the recovery menu to appear and choose the necessary recovery options.

  In the second place. While in Windows 7 click on "Start" and go to "Control Panel". Then choose "System and security"-> "Restore your computer to an earlier time"-> "of the advanced recovery methods'-> 'return your computer to the factory State '.

  In the third place. Buy CD/DVD recovery for your Toshiba noteboook.

• Satellite M35-S456: Impossible to reinstall WINDOWS!

  Laptop crashed and I am forced to reinstall windows using the recovery CD. When I put it in the drive and start the computer, it says that this will delete all your files F1 to continue or F2 to cancel. I press F1, then he said: press C to continue or has the demolition. I press C, and then immediately restart the laptop and begins the process of starting from the CD again and begin the installation again, its a never ending cycle.

  Help, please!

  Hello

  I agree with James. You suggested that your laptop has crashed. I guess that's the HARD disk head crash. In this case, there is nothing to see. The HARD drive is dead and you need a new.
  What you can do is to check the BIOS if the disc is recognized correctly.

• Questions about reinstalling Windows XP after the end of Support

  Several members of the family of my friends that I sometimes provide technical assistance for are still under XP SP3 on their systems.  These systems are too outdated and underpowered to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, and it will probably be some time until they are able to upgrade to a more recent hardware capable of running most modern versions of Windows.

  If in the meantime, something happens to one of their computers requiring a reinstall of Windows after support for XP purposes, but before they can get a newer computer, I have a few questions about what will happen:

  1. Is there still a way to activate their existing copies of XP during installation process?
  2. While I understand that new patches, updates, patches & will be is no longer provided, existing patches will be available through the Microsoft Update service so that I would be able to get those computers to update state that they would be about to XP supported ends, or do I have to search elsewhere to try & find these updates?  (It would be nice if Microsoft put up a cumulative update that would be sort of a mega-patch for people in this situation to be able to get back to the most current state systems, but I would not be surprised if there wasn't such a thing).

  Anyone know the answers to these questions?

  Thank you

  You should be able to clean install and activate Windows XP.  You should be able to upgrade as well, even if the wise move would be to get the updates stored on portable media or integrated into a multimedia installation (or both) as soon as POSSIBLE if the plan is to continue using Windows XP for a while.

  My suggestion is to set up and to buy Windows 7 Professional renovated systems / lease from places like TigerDirect.com - as pricing is generally about the same as just a license for Windows 7 or a little professional, the hardware specifications of these machines are likely machines Windows XP current in use, using something like the PC Mover take care of Laplink and Microsoft to move files (or for the more than 25 USD the) applications that can be moved as well) to the new system of the former is possible, and Windows 7 will get updated until 2020.

  Recently research I've seen systems to Windows 7 Professional for as little as 150 USD with 4 GB of memory and dual core processors.  Not bad.

• Question about reinstalling Windows after virus/malware crashed the system

  OK, I'm not exactly super tech savvy but I can manage.  Here's my dilemma.  I clicked a bad link in a Yahoo search and started getting all sorts of flashing messages that my laptop has been infected.  The next thing I know... Windows (I have Vista) crashed and does not now.

  Question #1 - so... can I spend $85 and make it my buddy to the computer to reinstall Vista... or can I invest in upgrading to Windows 7?

  Question #2-si I do it myself, can I just go ahead an installation of Windows 7 since I have no operating system on it because Vista won't load?

  I'd appreciate any help I can get with that.  I really think that whatever it is, I would be smart to buy Windows so I have to drive since it is not come with the laptop or my all-in-one.

  Thank you!!!

  Hello

  If necessary, you can record all necessary data (files) by putting the hard drive as 2nd in another computer
  or in an external box and copy of the data on the removable memory (CD, DVD, USB key or)
  others).

  The physical disks in Vista can be purchased cheaply system machine since you already own windows.
  Ask them about Windows 7 as they could also make a case here. Normally, it would be more advantageous for you
  to buy the disks of Vista and then upgrade to Windows 7 (unless the system manufacturer has a special offer).
  Before upgrade you to Windows 7 make sure that the system and the software will run you on it.

  To run the Upgrade Advisor you will need Vista work. Check with your system manufacturer support
  and/or support of any specific manufacturer of the device to make sure the drivers are available for your system.

  Windows 7 Upgrade Advisorhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/upgrade-advisor.aspx

  Also check the Compatibility Center

  I hope this helps.

• Satellite L40 - no sound after reinstalling Windows XP Home edition

  I really need help from anyone out there. I installed Windows XP Home edition on my Toshiba Satellite L40 after that I realized, there is no sound. I tried to install all kinds of updates, drivers and all, but still nothing.

  All make me is that I have no audio device.
  Grateful for the help as soon as possible.
  Holla.

  Do you have the yellow marks in Device Manager?
  Are you sure that you have installed all the drivers?

  Have you installed SP2 or SP3 for Windows XP? You must at least use SP2 for XP.

  And as said Akuma, check the Microsoft KB to the hoftixes. Before you apply this update, you must remove the driver. Otherwise it will not work.

  You can also search in the forum, there are already discussions on this topic.

• Question about reinstalling windows on a laptop that came with it, but the hard drive failed and had to be replaced.

  OK, until recently, the hard drive of my laptop couldn't, and I had to replace, no biggie, I really care about this laptop in any case. Then I threw ubuntu top and let it go from there. But recently, I wonder, if I could get windows again for her, for free. I am sure that it is not under warranty, but I could go and check of 90 percent. I have no back ups for it because it was cheap.

  Additional information:

  HP Pavilion G6-2235us

  Bought in the United States

  Provided with Windows 8

  No backups.

  Yes, if the hard drive has been installed you can just catch a Windows ISO-8 8.1 is not available now and make an own Install.Then, if you have the sticker of the product key on the back of your laptop use the product key to activate. Devices with Windows 8 generally have incorporated in their BIOS product key and use the following tool to get the product key:

  Download the key tool produces OEM of Windows

  Then, you can use the key to activate. In the meantime, here is the link to download windows ISO 8.1 and generate the installation media

  Later you can improve Windows 10 too if you wish.

• Re: Trying to update the display on Satellite A305-S6843 ATI driver

  OK, I have a
  Satellite A305-s6843

  64-bit Windows

  and I have the
  ATI mobility radeon hd 3470 graphics card
  I installed the driver version is 8.501.0.0

  I want to install the new driver I found and this is the version
  8.632.1.2000

  so my questions
  1. where can I get
  2. How do I install it because toshiba and the ccc do not play nice with them

  Hey,.

  To be honest I don t understand your problem... Why are you looking for other drivers? What is so important or better? I don t think so

  You should read the announcement of Quad. Toshiba offers clean and * pretested * see the drivers they will work 100%. In addition, they have overheating protection so I put t understand why you're looking for other drivers.

  Prior to installing the most recent Toshiba display driver, remove the old version and restart your laptop. Then start the freeware CCleaner tool to clean the registry and reboot again. After that install the Toshiba display driver, everything should work now or not?

• Satellite A305-S6905 and Web Cam questions

  I apologize if there's another thread for this particular model and the question, I'm just extremely frustrated and after hundreds of searches through google, toshiba and chicony, I can't find a solution. My laptop {Toshiba Satellite A305-S6905} was originally Vista when buying. My uncle put upgraded to Windows 7 and in addition to the fact that he constantly tells me that "this copy of Windows is not genuine", my web cam suddenly stopped working. It worked fine on Vista.

  I uninstalled camera Assistance and reinstalled more than 8 times. I * think * I reinstalled the driver, but whenever I open (or try to open) helps the camera, I get the message: "Webcam is disabled or has failed." Please check your webcam settings '. I opened the Device Manager, but the Chicony webcam is not listed. Nothing about the webcam is listed. I restarted my laptop... believe me, I almost tried everything. I noticed that a lot of upgraders from Vista to Windows 7 have the same problem. Last resort, I decided to come on the website of the manufacturer of my laptop. I would appreciate help.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hello

  If there is no entry in the Device Manager, it's quite strange. If the device works properly it is listed under imaging devices like Chicony camera.
  Somehow, it seems that there is no link between the cam and the motherboard.

  All you can do now is to test the functionality with the settings and see if the problem persists.
  If the situation will be the same, you should contact the closest service and leave technician to check the cam feature.

• Reinstalling Windows 10 on L50 - B Satellite

  Dear friends,

  I would like to reinstall Windows on my Satellite L50 - B 10. I do not want to reinstall through Windows settings or it will restore the software useless Toshiba and demos that I spent some time to erase me. I would like to reinstall it using a flash drive and hold mode with Secure Boot UEFI enabled.

  I have a flash drive with 10 Windows that I created with a tool from Microsoft of the ISO original (obtained through Microsoft Dreamspark). My question is, can we change the order of boot through Toshiba system settings to boot from USB, wipe the HARD drive and reinstall Windows? It will start normally later?

  Thank you

  You have my sympathy. Changing the boot order is not a problem, which is easily reversible. It will start normally then is a question you can answer only after trying to install or reinstall. I had win 8.1 and tried to install win 10. After six hours, I had a computer that did not go the Toshiba logo. Fortunately, with a lot of sweat and the use of the windows recovery disk, I returned to win 8.1.

  I don't know if it was a recovery partition in the hard drive or the Microsoft cloud saved me. Make sure that you have a Microsoft ([email protected]), your password account and associate your mobile number to your account, that Microsoft can SMS allows you to check say you who you are and you say that you have a right to the operating system.

• Reinstalled Windows XP now WLAN is not recognized - Satellite Pro L20

  I reinstalled Windows XP on my Satellite Pro L20.

  In Device Manager, I have a number of yellow question marks, which means that the operating system has not installed the drivers and therefore does not recognize the device.

  I downloaded the v5.3.0.35 Atheros Wireless Lan Driver Atheros dated 09/12/07 and tried to install these next to the 'Network controller' device, but nothing helped.

  Someone has an idea of what I might hurt or something else I could try? Sole purpose of the laptop is wireless connectivity, so I'm anxious to get this sort.

  Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide.

  Hello Thomas

  It will be interesting to know what L20 you exactly (L20 - xxx). It will be easier to identify what material is built into it.

  Anyway, as far as I know this laptop comes with operating system Windows XP Home edition and will be best solution to install using the supplied OS recovery media. The OS will be installed just after 20 minutes and all the hardware components are configured correctly.

  Of course, you install OS on your own. On the download page of Toshiba just follow instructions order facilities and avoid all the problems.

  Back to the Atheros WLAN card. After you download the driver Atheros for Windows XP Home edition, open the folder INSTALL and run the setup.exe file. What happens when you do this?
