Satellite A50-111: I get an error: cannot install MBR disks

To get the pc working, I tried to reinstall Win XP Pro, but I get an error: cannot install MBR disks

Have you tried to install the unit using the supplied restore CD?

  • Blue screen more often (Satellite A50-111)

    Hello. My laptop (satellite A50-111) stops with a blue screen. Sometimes when that I start the computer, sometimes, when I'm trying to play a video file, sometimes... I can't understand why... The error messages are inconsistent. They are different all the time (for example: SPECIAL_POOL_DETECTED_MEMORY_CORRUPTION or PFN_LIST_CORRUPT or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA or something with IRQ LESS THAN EQUAL etc.).

    I suspect that the problem is the graphics card or RAM memory. It is because the file ialmdnt5.dll and ialmdev5.dll were mentioned in the error screens).

    I ran a test of memory from a CD bootable (memtest-86) and everything seems to be fine with the memory. However, the memory is not the original one. I did a brief day when I bought the laptop (the memory is TMC - 2 x 512 MB)

    Any ideas what the problem might be. The problem is that I have these blue screens more often (I've had them several times before but now I have at least one per day)

    Any ideas/suggestions?

    Thank you.

    More info: I ran the test memory Microsoft (in addition to above mentioned Memtest-86). Is it possible to have the RAM ok, but everything just does not work WITH my Toshiba laptop? In other words, is something special on the modules of memory supplied with the laptop (which I have not because I have improved the memory immediately when I bought the laptop). Thank you.

    Another relevant info: I used the program "auditor" and this explains why I've been blue screens more often. I turn off, but I have still a few blue screens (not as often as before). The newest one: «...» "Stop 0x0000008E... win32k.sys..." "However, I rarely have the same error message

  • BIOS password? (Satellite A50-111)

    Hello. I have a Satellite a50-111 with the bios to version 1.30. Everything works fine. I put a password (which I think is a BIOS password) Toshiba HWSetup and indeed, when I turn on the laptop, I wonder a password until the system starts.

    However, I tried to get into the BIOS (at Esc) and I managed to get in without having to type the password. But I thought that the whole point of this password is to protect the BIOS! I don't understand what the purpose of this password? Any ideas? Thank you.

    EDIT: Later, I realized that I can start the computer without the password only when I use the reboot. It works as it should when I stop/restart the laptop.
    I guess that I partially answered my own question... well that is not clear to me what happens in the following cases: the laptop is off; someone puts is a bootable CD with another operating system (such as Knoppix) and restart the laptop (not arrested...) without the need to use the BIOS pwd. Is it still possible?

    Hello

    you need to differ between the two paswords!

    There are the user and supervisor pw that are different.
    The IPL user protects the system to enter the operating system without pwto. Pw supervisor protects the BIOS!

    Normally the pw is requested after each new startup, restart too!

    Use the Windows key + R on the keyboard or click on start, select run.

    Click OK.

    Make sure that the Security Center service is enabled and started.
    Probably, you will need to click Start to start the service.
    The Startup Type should be automatic.  The status should be started.

    Let me know what happens. If the problem persists, it may be that there are residual questions of the malware infection.

  • Satellite A50-111 - HARD drive upgrade

    Hello!

    I need to upgrade hard drive of my laptop because it is very slow. However, I know it's a 60 GB to factory-installed 4200 RPM.
    I'm ready to be upgraded to a fast 7200 RPM, if possible, with a decent capacity, but I'm not sure of the supported hard drive type (IDE?, 2.5?) is a model of 5 years. In my view, there are incompatibilities with the laptops today, hard drive formats, so I really need help.
    Thank you very much for your help!

    These are the specs on the site
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 97598

    Hey Buddy,

    In my opinion the HARD drive upgrade will not increase performance well then you should try the other options first as reinstalling Windows, or upgrade the RAM.

    Anyway, Satellite A50 use IDE interface, so you can use hard disks of 120 GB of disk space.
    Of course, you can take a model at 7200 RPM, but they need more energy and produce more noise.
    I recommend a 120 GB 5400 RPM model. That s pretty fast!

    Error - cannot install to root - CC want to put cc aps internal SSD flash disk. (I know LR5 go on Mac OS disk...)

    But what about the rest of the aps?

    Thanks for the note Jeff... Finally, I have determined that you must create an Applications folder on the SSD drive. (Of course) Make sure that your installation in the CC office location points to the SSD...

    then all is good...

    LR5 (according to Adobe) MUST be present on your OS drive...  Thanks again!

    How to recharge my hard drive with photos that are stored in iCloud?  After installing a new hard drive, there's no pictures found in the Photos, and I get this error, "could not find the picture of system library named"Library.photoslibrary Photos".

    First chech that the BIOS is configured to use the CD/DVD drive as frist boot device.

    Then remove the old drive and only connect the new drive.

    Start the PC and insert the CD that you created and boot from the CD.  If there is a "Long full" test, which is that you need to perform. Also check the SMART data (look for bad sectors).
