Satellite A50 and XP pro?

I have XP pro for purposes of working on my brand-new Satellite A50-522, but installation (even XP home upgrade) will not perform copy of files due to an unspecified error (blue screen and so on)-sometimes BAD_POOL-APPELLANT, sometimes "try to change video card.

My XP pro disc contains no SP1 or SP2

Someone properly installed XP pro on this machine?
Does anyone have an idea?

THX.

Hello

one of my friends has a brand-new Satellite A50-402 and he asked me to help him with the installation of XP Prof

We have not had any problems, but we did a complete new installation of XP Prof. It was after a large number of question marks in the device, but with the Update Manager the drivers of toshiba homepage, it works very well!

Could you also do a complete new installation of XP teacher because it is important to install the drivers and QFE patches... in the right order! With an upgrade to XP Prof this order could be choppy confused!

You can find this order installation on the CD tools & utilities. When the CD starts a html site opens and shows you all of the necessary drivers in order!

So I hope this will help you!

  • Satellite 4070CDT and WXP Pro: Ethernet 100 + Card Modem 56 does not properly

    Is there a contraindication to install Windows XP Pro on a Satellite 4070CDT with Max off the coast of the RAM (192 MB)?

    I tried and it seems ok at first glance, if I have a strange problem with a Cardbus real of Xircom Ethernet 100 + Modem 56 often get an error indicating a hardware failure. Just by pulling the card again for the most part solved the problem for a while, but it is very unpleasant and a constant waste of time. There seems to be a problem (bad) communication between the card and the laptop.

    Experiences of others on one of these topics?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I see no solution for you. The only possible solution is to try to install SP1. You'll be maybe lucky. Otherwise, I think you expect too much of this oldie ;)

  • satellite A50 and windows XP SP2

    Hello

    I have a question, recently I improve my windows XP Home Edition (Dutch) to SP2. After that everything works perfectly except on something important. TOSHIBA Power Saver. I have installed all updates to recommend internet page. If I switch between the different profiles (FN + F2). I get a blue screen and the prompt to reboot the PC. I can't read what it says.
    The other point is that even if I do not change, the laptop works at full power all time.

    is this what can I do with this problem?

    Kind regards
    Sjoerd

    Hello

    Hmm... This is strange. I will try to uninstall the Powermanager, and then reinstall it again. Any improvement? If not, right-click right workstation, click on properties (last line), click Advanced, click the settings button in the boot sector and recovery.
    Uncheck the box saying "Automatically restart" and then click on OK until your back in the real world.
    Next time, you get a blue screen, it will not restart but rather stop with the error message. If she tells you what to know (maybe) be difficult to say and then take it down and post it here (forget memoryadresses and segments, pointers and all that.

  • Satellite a50: Quick Fix Engineering and Windows Update

    I was wandering why some of the quick Fix Engineering published by Toshiba refer to problems in October 2003? for example, the most recent for my satellite a50 is http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?ID=29405&OSID=10&drive rLanguage = 13 & selectedLanguage = 13 & driverCountry = 41 & selectedCountry = 0
    that refers to a problem of October 2003 (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-044.mspx)

    I asked a similar question on this forum (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=3131&messageID=9527#9527), but now I'm not so sure of the answer I received... Again, if I still have my Windows XP to update (from windowsupdate.microsoft.com) must I apply the miracle solution?

    Thank you. Hpop

    Hello

    I put t know exactly how old is your device, but I know that at this moment, there is no SP2 and your device comes with SP1. Image designed for the contents of your device in a large number of QFES. As Tom says if you want to install Windows XP Home edition, you will probably use SP2. In this case, it is not necessary to install all QFE Toshiba site because they are already included in SP2. As you know, after installation of SP2, your device will be updated automatically.

  • Satellite A50: Question about type RAM and HARD drive

    Anyone out there who would try to open their laptop Toshiba Satellite A50, what type of RAM and hard disk of brand you all have inside?
    All the portable toshiba comes with Toshiba RAM and hard drive?

    Hello

    As far as I know the Satellite A50 uses DDR PC2700 modules. These modules must be compatible:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

    There are different models of Satellite A50, but I think that there should be a drive HARD IDE(ATA-6) 60 GB 4200 RPM with 8 MB buffer size.

    Here is all the information I found.

  • Satellite A50-109: CD burn successfully but the disc is empty!

    After working fine for a year, I get this weird behavior my CD burner:
    Burn process ends seccessfully but the disk is empty.

    I use a laptop model Satellite A50-109 with winXP pro sp2 installed.
    Driver Toshiba is recognized by XP and everything seems to work fine except the drive is still empty.

    This phenomenon is the same when using original burner XP or Nero.
    So, seems to me like a hardware failure.
    Am I wrong?
    Is there a way to check the material before applying it to the service provider?

    Thanks for your attention
    REA

    Hello

    Have you tried burning different media?
    Not all CD or DVD is compatible with the player.
    Usually, you should find tested and compatible media in the user manual which must be preinstalled on the laptop.

    I m not 100% sure, but as far as I know the reader doesn t write on + media
    I recommend you to test some different manufacturers of disc form.

    Just FYI; I use TDK and I m very happy.
