• Satellite T130 - 11 H - Downgrade from Windows XP and drivers need

  I want to downgrade Satellite T130 - 11 H Windows 7 64 bit for Windows XP, can you tell me what should I go for Windows XP Professional 32-bit or 64-bit?
  All of these drivers on the website are for what version?

  And what are these 2 unknows devices in the Device Manager after installation all known devices?

  Thank you

  Hi serge_1,

  As much as I know Windows XP 64-bit is not supported on Toshiba laptops. I've never seen these drivers for XP 64 bit was not as good because a lot of missing drivers. If Toshiba drivers are designed for XP 32 bit only, so I would choose this version if you really want Windows XP

  If you post the vendor and device ID I can say a little more ;)

• Satellite A660/0MR - upgrade after RAM, Windows would not start

  I have expressed in this thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=228520#228520
  But having a slightly different model (A660/0MR). Same question.

  Improved from 4 GB to 8 GB. He would not accept any 4 GB sticks at all (I tried 4 different 4 GB sticks in all - all of the correct sticks) and operation in other machines. BIOS would recognise them, the BIOS is the latest version (1.80), but windows would not start.

  Any suggestions?

• Satellite U400-10 has: Downgrade from Windows XP Home edition

  I got my laptop U400-10 for XP. Few things left pending:

  1. How can I get the LED on the top of the screen (and Satellite/power LED) to decrease intensity again by pressing the LED light on the top of the screen? Worked under vista. Cannot run Windows XP Home edition. Probably a Toshiba driver... but the Witch one?

  2. I get a Device Manager question mark in front of audio storage devices and mass HD. I checked the internet and it seems related to the HDMI port. But how to fix it? I can't identify the right Toshiba drivers on the page/download driver Toshiba.

  3. How can I get Bluetooth (with the standard windows drivers)? Bluetooth Monitor driver Toshiba form doesn't seem to work.

  Thanks for the replies.

  Concerning

  Hello

  (1.) I think you could turn on and off the LED of Illumination in the BIOS.
  But maybe it s not supported under Win XP.

  (2) some features are not supported by XP. This unit is probably the module of Robson former Turbo Memory. This material will be supported only by Windows Vista so there is no driver Windows XP.

  (3) possibly you have ONLY installed the BT monitor. It is a diagnostic utility, and if you want to use BT you need a driver of BT.
  The BT driver can be downloaded from the page of the portal of BT or driver Toshiba

• Satellite A660-047 - lack of WAN Miniport drivers

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A660-047 PSAW3C-047017 running Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit.

  I just downloaded Norton Ghost 15 ISO, created the installation CD, installed Ghost and ran the validation pilot of the installation CD. I received the following message:

  It seems a little research on Google, it's more than a level higher than a real hardware device interface. I don't really know what it's for, or what is the probability I will miss it in the case of a recovery. Should I spend time worry right now?

  The thread said http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/wan-miniport-sstp-driver-problem/f83493ae-8127-47dd-a7b7-7e5b3460b6a6 should not 'more often' but I was wondering if exceptions could be encountered during recovery (when I want to use WiFi to browse and restore my system to the State non - factory, as well as to make diagnoses on a HARD drive may be bad).

  Hello

  AFAIK Miniport WAN is a part of the Ethernet controller and you will need to install the LAN / Wlan driver.
  You should go to control panel-> network-> Lan-> properties control.
  Here, you should check if all protocols are installed.

  But as you have already said: it of not really a necessary point

• Satellite A660-1CJ - 8.1 Windows crashes - BSOD bridge.sys

  Hello

  I have a Satelite A660-1CJ, running Windows 8.1 and he already broke 5 times with a BSOD:
  DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (bridge.sys)

  What can I do?

  Hello

  It seems that the bridge.sys is causing the BSOD.
  Bridge.sys is a Windows system component.

  Toshiba says that the Windows 8.1 is not supported on Satellite A660 series.
  What does that mean?
  This means that Windows 8.1 drivers are not released by Toshiba.

  I assume that you have installed drivers in your own hand and probably one of the drivers causing the BSOD.

• Satellite A660 - 17 M - need drivers for Windows 7 32 bit

  Dear all

  I just brought a new Toshiba Satellite A660 - 17 M in Egypt and I installed windows 7 32-bit on it to support my company work, but I could find the drivers for it on the website and many material options does not specially the extra package, please help me!
  is it possible that I can install it or fix it?

  Hey Buddy,

  The problem is that most of the new laptops don't support windows 7 64 bit because they come with 4 GB or more RAM capacity and 32-bit support only up to 3.2 GB.

  I think you should search the drivers yourself. Just check out some similar Toshiba models, they support Windows 7 32 bit. As much as I know Satellite L500 provides 32-bit drivers Windows 7 and tools where you can also get value-added package for example.

  If you find all the drivers of the comments would be great. :)

• Satellite A660-158 - cannot start Windows

  Toshiba Satellite A660-158

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A660-158. It has served me less than a week. I think it's the broken hard drive.

  My problem:
  Once I start the computer, it started and has worked for a while, but suddenly, there was an error reading that I didn't have the time. Computer has been restarted. And does not load... Until the boot mode does not reach. But the initial test (with logo) succeeded. Takes a long time and finally gives an error:
  -----
  Cannot start Windows. Maybe it was because of the recent small difference is the hardware or software configuration. To fix this error:
  1. Insert your Windows installation disc, restart the computer (the complete transmission wasn't)
  2. choose the language settings, and then click Next.
  3. Select "repair your computer".
  If this disk is missing, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer (he turned and said to wear to the DEPOT, but I do not have this feature).

  Status: 0xc000000e

  Details: Unable to start menu, since the required device is inaccessible.

  Hey,.

  And why do you think the hard drive is faulty?
  Have you ever tried the repair your computer option? Usually with this option you can restore factory in a few minutes.

  Also if you have the Toshiba recovery disc you can also restore the factory of this disc. Just boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. You need to do a few clicks only, installation with all the drivers and tools happen automatically.

  If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

• Satellite C850D - Downgrade from Windows 8

  I have a Satellite C850D, which was shipped with Windows 8. I want this downgrade to Windows 7. I have a Windows 7 DVD, but when I try and install it I get is an error message indicating that there is an error with one of the startup files.

  Is it possible to install Windows 7 on a computer that came with Windows 8, and how to remove the OEM of Windows 8 version and replace it with Windows 7.

  Any help/advice would be appreciated.

  Hi Sean

  Yes, it is possible to install Windows 7 and other systems. But this requires some changes in the BIOS.
  You must disable secure boot and go the CSM UEFI.
  As far as I know after changing two options, you should be able to boot from the Windows disc.

• How to install Windows without recovery disc - Satellite A660 with new HARD drive

  Hey,.

  Portable 500 GB HDD of my friend Toshiba Satellite A660 seems to have died.
  I tied him to my laptop on a sata dock and runs a data recovery program because nothing has been saved. The recovery takes forever, however, and she really needs his computer to work.

  Because the hard disk may be damaged in any case, I am considering buying a new hard drive and install in the Toshiba.

  How can I do this without a recovery disk, though?
  The old drive was a partition recovery on it, I think, but this seems useless with a new drive.
  Operating system is Windows 7 64 bit home edition.

  The product key is on the bottom of the laptop.
  I live in Turkey and so I don't think there is a Toshiba store is close.
  There are individual computer stores, so I'm confident, I can buy a new internal hard drive (I could find the sata dock here), but he must know what to do to install the software, etc.

  Thank you!
  Chris

  > How can I do this without a recovery disk, though?

  You either have the recovery disk or you are going to install the system using the Microsoft Windows disk.
  The necessary drivers are in internet on Toshiba UE page.

  The recovery disc can also be ordered here:
