Satellite A500 - error blue screen when I install XP

I am trying to install XP on my laptop which has Vista.

Boot from the disc I get the blue screen error because I do not have the sata drivers. I've read here,
http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ9401B20001R01.htm

I need to download the sata drivers (which will be in a folder in the display drivers), but download my laptop display driver is not the sata drivers in the folder that was specified. Not only that, but it is said to put them on a floppy disk, but I don't have a floppy drive in my laptop.

My laptop is a Satellite A500 (PSAM3C-025017)

What can I do? Is there something I'm missing here?

    Hello

    Is it only happens using USB drive?
    Have you tried other disks USB, key USB flash or other USB devices?

    > I tried to check my RAM with memtest, but it restarts my pc once he starts the first tests.
    Hmm... It's strange...
    The problem of memory could be responsible for BSOD, but if this BSOD appears only using USB drive then I would recommend testing other external USB HDD.

    You should also try to update the driver from chipset since the chipset USB ports driver controls

    Hello im hoping someone can help me with these problems I have. Well one day to start up my computer I is no longer boot into normal mode and having to use safe mode, the computer changes the display on its own and goes down to 16 bit color, when I restart my computer suspended unless I have start in safe mode and then other times I get the black screen saying I choose SafeMode shape etc. When I load secure form mode it starts right away and then I restart to return to normal mode it hooked to black screen, but if I'm not in safe mode it takes forever to initialize. The blue screen that appears shows the following...

    The device driver got stuck in an infinate loop. This usually indicates problems with the device itself or with the incorrect programming hardware device driver.
    Please check with your hardware device vendor updates the driver.

    My laptop is Satellite M70, XP Home SP2. ATI X 700 video card is.

    I tried to uninstall display driver, no help. I even tried formatting HARD drive and reinstalled XP Home with recovery from recovery DVDs, worse yet, I can't even finish the recovery process, it is always hung when starting Windows, and then even a blue screen... More as soon as the load of windows xp, the screen has very low resolution with several vertical lines distributed evenly on the screen...

    Unfortunately, I think that you have to return your laptop to the point of service.

    > The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop
    To me, this looks like a corrupt graphics card.

    I think there is not much to do and ask the help of the technician.

  • Satellite A100-163 - blue screen when the PC is overloaded

    Hi guys!

    I bought my PC not so long ago and it's a machine woderful piece, BUT I have a question that I guess is with my RAM. Whenever my PC is overloaded (when I start a game + my winamp plays and I'm downloading stuff on the internet) I get a blue screen telling me that Windows is dumping some memory etc etc... He suggested to update my BIOS driver as a possible solution to the problem. I tried new drivers from this site, but there is no news yet.

    Any suggestions how to fix this problem?

    Hello

    I don t think you will solve this problem by updating the BIOS. It is a new unit and there are more recent version of the BIOS installed.
    In my view, this problem occurs due to running applications. The most games need the full memory performance.
    In this case another application cannot use the full memory.

    In your case, I would check the memory sticks or / and to improve memory.

    Hey Buddy,

    This occurs only on the games or the windows too?

    Are you running the factory settings or did you do your own installation of Windows?

    Maybe that's a problem with the display driver. You must reinstall the latest driver from the Toshiba page. Don t use the nVidia drivers because they are not pre-tested:

  • Satellite A500: BSOD (blue screen of death) - Solution

    Hello

    Well, I am engineer in Instrumentation and also related to the field of computing. In recent weeks, I see that many people in the world are stuck on this problem of malfunction or failure of the graphics card driver.

    Recently a friend brought me his laptop A500 solve this problem and the solution works very well with him for the last day 10.
    We test the laptop using games, movies n everything and it works very well!

    _ * Solution: * _

    _Step1: _ Just bring back your little of lower resolution graphics of full (my thought is its quite possible that a500 LCD or graphics are mismatch so a good step to avoid this problem is to decrease your resolution no need to change the default settings of the graphics card)

    _Step2: _ change your windoes7 to windows Basic theme and only change the wallpaper if you want (although I'm not sure this step because this step has no logic behind but maybe since windows7 use new programming so maybe a possibility that graphics files are in conflict with drivers)

    I hope that my solution will also help u, as it has done for my friend and those you spend money on the a500 will not feel say heart :)

  • Satellite L450D-128: how to fix intermittent errors blue screen Crash?

    My computer suffered several errors blue screen for a month, and I need help to fix it. I've already posted this question on the forums of Windows 7, but received no reply and therefore no help.

    I use a Satellite L450D-128. I installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    According to the .dmp files, most of the accidents were caused by the ntoskrnl.exe file that is part of the windows OS.

    Can someone tell me the best way to look at/fix this file?

    Hello

    The ntoskrnl.exe seems to be part of the kernel to boot Microsoft.
    In my view this file or this process should not create a BSOD
    Have you checked if the new installation of the OS could solve this problem?

    Given that the BSOD may be linked to serious problems or hardware problem
    Therefore, you should try new fresh OS installation to check if the system is not affected
    Otherwise I recommend that you check the RAM modules (perhaps running a memtest86 +)

  • Satellite A300D-1EI - error blue screen display - drivers did not have

    I bought my laptop about a month ago.
    Everything is working great except two errors 'blue screen' caused by the graphics card.

    Both were when the laptop was connected to the TV via the S-video port.
    First was when the computer screen turns off after 15 minutes while watching a movie on resume says that the display drivers did not have, and then I got the blue screen. Then I updated the site Web of ATI display drivers and set the computer screen goes out.

    All were ok with no problems, until last night when I got another message that the display drivers did not follow a blue screen.

    I wonder if this is problem to drive or there is a problem with my graphics card.

    System information:
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T8400 CPU @ 2.26 GHz
    Memory (RAM live): 3.00 GB
    System type: 32-bit Windows Vista Edition Home Premium
    Graphics card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470

    If long you use ATI driver ATI support page it is not possible to say anything on this subject.
    This driver is not tested and Toshiba does not offer any help on this matter.

    So what you can do is to install OS using recovery media and see what will happen in the future. Please test extensively with the own operating system preinstalled. Do not install anything that can have some negative influence this game or additional applications, codecs or something similar.

    Test it please and tell us if the problem persists.

  • Satellite T110 - 10 X - blue screen when creating backup

    I bought this netbook a week ago. First of all, I'm okay with windows 7 (home premium x 64-preinstalle) but in a few days, I loved. Yesterday, when I tried to make an image backup (for the first time) problem began.

    1. in the creation of the back to the top (with a windows image), I received: unable to complete error - blue screen and the netbook does more.
    2nd time same thing.

    Now, there are times when the computer enters answers do not mode there is a strange noise coming from the right of it (I don't know if his came from the speaker or elsewhere) but if his hearing only when the netbook stop responding... and the only solution is to restart (unplug or keep the power button down for 5 seconds)

    before attempting to run this backup thing and receive blue screen dump, that sound never took place!

    The mistake of relief can be fixed or should I reinstal of the new OS? * the netbook came with Windows 7 preinstalled
    This sound is heard when it stops responding is normal? or do I have to pick up the netbook?

    Best regards

  • Satellite P200D-12f PSPBQE - blue screen when waking up from sleep

    Hello again!

    I feel blue screen problems when I close my laptop and open it again (while he wakes up).
    It says something about Ati blah blah.

    I find that very annoying reseting every time the PC cuz he went to sleep... any1 has / had similar problems?

    What can I do about it? I had b4 of win xp on my laptop (toshiba don't support even xp for this model) and it worked perfectly, even not a problem... and now with win 7 I have millions of problems and win7 is supported!

    > I feel some problems blue screen when I close my laptop and open it again (while he wakes up).
    > It says something about Ati blah blah.

    Blabla ATI means that the BSOD is related to the ATI graphics card chip or graphics card installed driver.

    If Win XP worked perfectly, then the problem must be caused by software installed. Maybe the graphics driver...

    I recommend the update driver graphics card and if necessary, update the BIOS.

    Error blue screen STOP: 0x0000007e. I powercycled the sys, unable to choose for sure (keys do not work when you try to select a mode) sys is trying just to go back to the blue screen. Help, please

    Symptoms: Booted computer, loaded the raid drivers and showed at the start screen XP for half a second then to BSOD with a Stop error Code 0x0000007E - see also a lot of users (0xC0000001D, 0 x-, etc.) as well.

    Solution:

    1 boot from your Windows XP CD and start the recovery console. You may need to press F6 while RC loads in order to load the SATA drivers. you will have a prompt c:\WINDOWS to the console.

    2. type: CD $NtUninstallKB977165$ \spuninst (it's the update, I had to uninstall to get out of the boot loop, other updates can be uninstalled by changing the name of the directory to $NtUninstallKBCODE$, where KBCODE is the code KB)

    3. type: BATCH spuninst.txt

    4. type: exit

    Don't forget to configure your system to boot from the HD before resuming. I hope this helps. Saved me a lot of hassle today.
