Satellite C660-108 - Windows XP Home Edition does not install
I try to install Windows XP Home Edition on a Toshiba Satellite C660-108, without success.
I changed the BIOS disk in "Compatibility" mode (what is the same thing as "Legacy IDE"?) by following the instructions on a Yahoo Answers question on the same issue.
What has improved the situation, in what I now get an error message a few minutes after installing XP said "Starting Windows" instead of immediately after. The error message is the same that I have already received and is as follows:
"A problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer...". "Technical information: * STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D663C, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000).
Thanks in advance for any help,
Luke
PS - I'm a mac user and do not have much experience in the use of Windows laptops, so I need instructions spelled out clearly enough if possible.
The error could be related to drive HARD and the setting in the BIOS of the controller...
Probably, you need to install Win XP using SATA AHCI mode and to add the driver SATA as described here:

However, the satellite A100-784 supports a chip 82562GZ Intel 10/100 Mbit (Ekron) of Lan.

My product key of windows xp home edition does not work?
Good while my laptop was a major virus, so after 5 antivirus, antispyware programs could not locate or get rid of it, I had no choice but to re - install windows xp home edition. But the problem is that my product key does not work. Why is this and what can I do, I don't have money to buy another computer laptop/product key
Dell inspiron 6400
p.s the guarantee expired already tried that one.
In this case, you are probably using the wrong type of disc.
You MUST use an OEM disc with an OEM key in WIndows XP
You MUST use a disk of Windows XP Home Edition with a WIndows XP Home Key

Windows XP Home Edition does not load in any mode after reboot to uninstall Norton
I wanted to get rid of Norton anti-virus, then, I have downloaded and run the Norton Uninstaller. After what seemed an eternity he finished and asked me to restart the computer to complete the uninstalation. I clicked the botton "Restart now" and after the screen, which shows the bios is nothing. No loading screen, no beeps or anything else, just black. In addition, it does the same thing in all modes.
I removed the HDD and an IDE to USB for connecting to my mobile backup (Win7 Ultimate) and performed a virus with TrendMicro Titanium antivirus scan + and scan with malewarebytes paid version maleware. No virus or maleware found. So, I ran a check/repair through backup with no found error disc.
I do not have a XP or 7 CD repair/install, nor am I money right now. I really need to get going again.
Infected computer:
Compaq Presario M2000
Windows XP Home Edition SP3
Processor Intel Centrino Pentium M 1.5 GHz
1 GB of RAM
Intel Extreme Graphics 2
Machine backup:
Dell Inspiron 1501
Windows 7 Ultimate Edition SP2
AMD Turion 64 MK - 36 2.0 GHz
3 GB RAM
Integrated ATI Radeon Xpress 1150
Looks like you somehow corrupted the bootloader.
If I'm not mistaken, you can technically download disc for Microsoft Windows XP SP3 OEM HOME legally, as long as you use your current license.
You can also communicate with Compaq and request a repair disk.

Windows XP Home edition does not charge up - screen Toshiba and then nothing
I opened my computer to stand by earlier. And received an error message such as:
WINDOWS CANNOT CONTINUE RUNNING BECAUSE THE FILE IS DAMAGED AND UNREADABLE...
Then he had a countdown until it restarted. After the computer restarted (loads of screen toshiba upwards) then nothing happends. I managed to get into the safe mode start page, but when I select start in safe mode, it does nothing, actually freezes. Seems that the problem is with XP.I also tried to "last good configuration" but who also refuses to load.
I can, however, in the BIOS.The black and white background writes startup screen that flashes briefly upward when after that the toshiba screen doesn't even come to the top.
I have a P100-429 Satilite using XP SP2 (or 3) does not remember.
Is this a hardware problem? I lose data?
I am aware that my system was clean and I was using a good anti-virus.
Please please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments.
Thanks in advance, Max...
Hi RisSsky,
you are in a deep deep sh... t... No. not really...
Looks like the filestructure hard disk is damaged.
the hard drive is recognized by the bios? means, it is listed as a device?
There is a sound of the hard drive? scratch or buzzing or ticking?CHKDSK may help, but I would 'safe mode' where you want not to lose data on disk.
don't panik, we will do things.
2 options to solve this problem:
the first and save:
-Remove the old hdd (you need later)
-get a new hard drive and make a recovery/installation on the new drive.
-also get a usb - hdd connector to access old data hdd and copy on the new disk.
or the 2nd:
-run chkdsk on your hard drive, maybe you need to do this with a "live-system-on-cd.
Be aware that if there is a problem it will get worse...
-start in safe modeIf you're lucky, the 2nd option will do.
as said before I'd do it "the safe way. -
Windows XP Home edition does not recognize new HDD on the Qosmio G20
I have a Qosmio G20/390LS bought a year ago, when I worked at the Japan, I tried to upgrade the hard drive with a new HD 100 GB Hitachi SATA but I faced a problem that XP does not recognize the HD.
For your reference, the Bios sees the new HD, when I install the XP operating system I load the driver downloaded from the Toshiba Web site but no way RAID with F6... XP does not recognize the HD.Do you have any idea how to fix?
Thank youHello
Computers portable Japanese are unknown to me, but if this laptop comes with two hard drives and RAID option do not forget the good option is set in the BIOS. Without the right BIOS setting you will not be able to install the OS.
On Qosmio G30, I was able to install Vista when for two HDD HARD drive settings were 0-RAID-1. Check it please and let us know.

Satellite A200 PSAE3: Windows XP Home edition do not recognize the modem and sound card
Hi all!
I can't understand what is the problem with my Satellite A200 (PSAE3)... I downloaded all the files on the right of the Toshiba Download Center, updated the BIOS to WXP but XP still not find any sound card or any modem. He isn't finding a device with a "?" question mark on this...
There are so many different drives, I tried, but no one has changed the situation...
Anyone has any advice?Thanks in advance,
ciroopi
Well, I found the solution to the problem! :)
so, I write these verses down for anyone who might know the same problems:
as usual, strictly follow the 'Toshiba A200 Installation sequence' found on the TOshiba driver download page.
as he [I jumped no useful installation programs]I advice restart you each time you install a component, in order to have under control the whole Exchange.

You may have read in the installation dialog box.Moreover, I do not know if you must install the sun java, .NET framework and WMP version that displays the list, versions that are OLDER than the most recent, but just to be sure, download the form versions THAT NET.
at this point, you should see "unknown PCI device" in the unknown devices in the system control panel.
14 Realtek ALC268 Audio Driver V5.10.0.5433
for realtek, I suggest you download the driver from the zip from the realtek download page; Once extracted from the latest version for desktop or a temp directory, I suggest to install before all the patch KB888111 you might find in the \WDM_Rxxx\MSHDQFE.
then restart.
for now, you should not see the "unknown PCI device" no more where it was before, but under the "system devices", like her, where you could also end the "Intel PCI Express Root Port", "Pci Bus" and so on [ja? m saying this to you because ja? m Italian aid of XP, and I don't remember the exact English names...].
Now, install the audio drivers by using the setup.exe that you find in the \WDM_Rxxx directory.
It should reinstall the kbfix and install the new drivers.Reset.
After the reboot, nothing happens, but...
.. see the "unknown pci device" menu - here? m not sure the name but the one with the exclamation mark in the 'system devices' - select 'Properties' and then 'driver' and 'update driver'. Let XP find the NOT on the net. tell XP to look for "Video and Audio Controller, game" [you know, the English entry that usually stands for device audio and similar] and he must find a CORRESPONDING driver, which is the "MICROSOFT UAA BUS DRIVER for HIGH DEFINITION AUDIO".
If XP don't select this driver by itself, you should look for "\windows\system32\DRIVERS\hdaudbus.sys".After that, XP automatically detects ALL audio devices and install the correct drivers.
In addition, it now the entrance to the modem, modem to install the separate driver, that we could find in down in the "list system", like her, on the Toshiba download page.So, hope this helps!
See you soon,.

Windows 7 Starter Edition does not recognize a hard drive WD
Windows 7 Starter Edition does not recognize a hard drive WD, I used until last month. Device Manager sees it, he sees the USB controller (it lists as a mass storage device), but I can't access the information on the hard disk, or make use of the last backup. I tried to uninstall USB drives - it is not the thing. It gets listed under disk drives.
Thanks for the reply.
There was no error message: the device has been recognized (listed) by the USB controller and the Device Manager, but not by the management of the disks - so I couldn't access.
I managed to fix the problem after:
-J' scanned the computer (DELL Inspiron) with the Safety Scanner
-J' completely uninstalled all the software associated with an external hard drive
-J' uninstalled the USB controllers
-reboot the system
-reconnected the external HD
-After gaining access to the drive, I installed the dedicated softwareBest regards
