Satellite C50 - A - the upgrade to win little 8.1 win7

Hello

I was wondering, I have the Windows 8.1, upgrade of the media that I had for my Toshiba Satellite C50 - A computer. Upgrade to 8.1 Windows and got the upgrade DVD, came with the laptop. So I do it just insert the DVD, click on Set up, or do I need to go back to factory settings, then insert the DVD and as a blind it student, will need sighted assistance.

Any help, advice, tips of people made this before. I have a 1 TB USB drive Toshiba external hard, so have saved all that and added a number of things today, but saved the rest of my stuff, docs, College work, emails, my settings for RSS feeds, contacts for outlook 2010, programs, music, TV, movies, bookmarks, etc, so all advice.

Going to do it tomorrow. make a programming course and the Professor uses windows 8.1, and need to develop windows blinds and windows phone apps.

The exact specification of your model is unknown to me, but I assume that you got your machine with recovery disc Win8.1 so if you want to use Win8.1, you must start your computer with the recovery disc and make clean OS install.

I don't know if you got your machine with Win7 preinstalled initially. If so create recovery media (DVD or USB) using pre-installed recovery disc creator Toshiba before you start the installation of Win8.1.
This created recovery media, you can use if you want to have the machine with Win7 again.

  • Can I install the upgrade to win 8 as a dual boot with Windows 7?

    I bought and downloaded but not installed upgrading Windows 8 Pro, I'm currently under Win 7 64. The upgrade wizard Win gave the choice to install now, install by creating media or install at a later time from your desktop.  I chose the latter, and the Windows Installer shortcut is now on the desktop. I have learned since that a dual-boot Win 8 cannot happen if installed by Windows.

    This upgrade version allows you to dual boot? (I have a few apps that apparently do not run in Win 8)

    It can dualboot (as long as you create the DVD drive with the installation files. But to install the Windows 8 Pro upgrade, the score should have a previous version of qualification of Windows (XP, Vista or Windows 7). The version recommended if you want to dualboot is the full OEM version:

  • After the upgrade to WIN 8, Office and other programs are lost?

    After the upgrade to WIN 8, have been uninstalled all of my programs, including Office 2010. Does anyone know if there is a way to get back programs without having to reinstall everything?

    If you have selected "keep settings of Windows, files and applications, then you should still have Microsoft Office installed. You have not selected this option during installation?

    Besides being able to keep your Windows settings and personal files, you can keep your personal files too during the upgrade to Windows 7. If you choose No, Windows 8 place your files in a folder named Windows.old.

    If you have not selected these options, you will need to reinstall your programs since the original installation disc.

    To launch your applications, go to the start, screen by pointing your mouse pointer on the left corner of the screen of Windows 8 and click on it.

    Do scroll to the right and start your application.

  • Impossible to move all the data using BT to Satellite C50-A-19 t with Win 8.1

    Hello

    I have a portable Satellite C50-at-19 t, that came pre-installed with Windows 8.1.

    I cannot transfer files on any of my other Bluetooth devices paired with the laptop, but I can transfer files from laptop to other devices, it seems to work only one way.

    The PC does not display a file download, and the transmitter device says not sent the file. I looked in the Bluetooth settings but find nothing much in there. other devices work properly with each other.

    I hope someone can give me an idea of what I'm doing wrong.

    Thank you. John.

    > I'm unable to transfer files on any of my other Bluetooth devices paired with the laptop, but I can transfer files from laptop to other devices, it seems to work only one way.

    In your case, I recommend to check others like Firewall and antivirus security settings.
    I suggest you to temporary disable the antivirus and firewall and then check the result
    Perhaps BT file transfer is blocked.

    If you are ready to roll the dice, see if it works...

    Try direct download and immediate upgrade method.

    I think you can use W7 32 bit nForce 430 chipset driver, it might work.

    You may need to install the driver manually if automatic installation method does not work.

    While I am not employed by, nor do I represent HP, I can almost guarantee you that nobody will develop W8.1 or W10 graphics card or chipset drivers.

    are missing. I did something that I don't remember and titles appeared but the first time I move a cursor, then disappear all titles.

    So if anyone can help it would be appreciated.

  • Indicator WiFi P70-A-L1M satellite will remain on after the upgrade to Win 8.1

    Hello.

    After update to 8.1 Windows wireless indicator is still on (red light), no matter if the WiFi is really turned on or off. When I press the f12 key, WiFi passes in Airplane Mode, I have a message in Windows, everything is ok.
    But the light still.

    In Windows 8, it worked as it should.
    All the drivers are up to date.

    Is there a way to solve it?

    > In Windows 8, it worked as it should.

    > All drivers are up to date.

    You said that the drivers are up to date. This means that you have installed and updated every driver and Toshiba utility as mentioned in the instructions for installation of Win 8.1?
    These installation instructions are on the EU Toshiba driver one page it shows you the order of installation of driver/tools.

    In addition, you should check if the BT and WiFi has been disabled properly.
    Why? Because this indicator lights up red as if BT or Wlan is enabled.

    Without doubt, BT or Wlan is switched on and then the light turns red.

  • Cannot find drivers for Satellite C50-A-1DV 8.1 Win

    Hello.

    I reinstalled windows 8.1 from Disc I have, but I'm having driver problems, namely find some support pilot on the Toshiba site.

    It seems that my phone is not listed, or I can't find it in the support section for drivers.

    The drivers so that I am looking are the drivers of the motherboard.
    I already tried a pilot site, but my laptop took a good few minutes to turn off after a stop so I doubt than those who were correct. I will try the software intel chipset device and see if it gives me good.

    Rest of the drivers, I can get enough simple through the Manager of devices, but not the chipset drivers and probably usb 3.0 also.

    On a side note, I noticed I don't need to type the key that I wrote using belarc, I guess that it is registered in the BIOS and windows auto detect it correctly?

    Hello

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop comes with Windows preinstalled 8.1 64 bit so what you need to do is to reinstall the original recovery image that contains all the necessary drivers.

    When you say you have installed Win 8.1 from disk, does that mean exactly?
    Did you install your own OS version or the original version of Win8.1 recovery disk created?

    Anyway, al Win8.1 64-bit drivers, you can download at Toshiba download page - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    There you can find all the drivers for your C50-A-1DV Satellite with PSCG6E part number.

    Hello

    does anyone have a Toshiba Satellite L10-104 with more than 1 GB of RAM installed? I'm one of these laptops for upgrade and reinstall the operating system and other software. Toshiba says that it only supports 1 GB (2 x 512 MB) of RAM but Intel says techdocs this Notebpook (i855GM) chipset will support 2 GB RAM Max.

    The other question is, is the CPUupgradeable? The laptop has more no guarantee and I am an experienced user and I see no problem to install a new processor in a laptop.
