  Hi mate

  I know that you would not be able to install Win XP without previous installation of the SATA driver.
  Another option might be changing the SATA mode in the BIOS
  Go to BIOS and change SATA AHCI compatible mode mode.
  Save the changes, and then try again to install Win XP.

  PS: it s recommended using a Win XP with at least SP2 or SP3 disk

• Satellite Pro L500-1W4 - cannot install Win 7 Pro after changing the HARD drive

  Hi all

  I need assistance with Windows.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro with Windows 7 preinstalled pro and the recovery DVD to downgrade to Windows XP Pro.
  I had to change the hard drive, so I try to reinstall Windows 7 from the recovery CD, but it does not work. He said that it is not possible to install this on this machine.

  So I tried with Windows XP CD recovery and no problem
  I'd rather have windows Windows 7 but I do not know how to retrieve
  Last information, the Windows XP CD recovery came with the laptop that Windows 7 was made by the store who sold me the computer.

  Thank you for your help
  Julie

  As far as I know there is not a kind of limitation and if there is no problem with the original recovery for Win7 disc, you should be able to install it on any HARD disk that you use with your machine.
  I upgraded HDD to the SSD on my installation of picture machine and the restore worked without any problems.

  To be honest, it is not easy to say what the problem is here, but the Win7 installation disc is somehow suspect for me. I don't know what model of laptop you have exactly, but somehow, I feel you didn t get original drive Win7. Best evidence is the Windows XP Home edition recovery disk. The prinziple with Win7 is the same and it should works.

  When you use this disk you should have the menu as shown on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

  This document explains how this works with the original installation disc of recovery.

• Satellite Pro 4600 PS460E - cannot install Win XP

  Since there are 2 variants of numbers on this laptop, am confused abit as forums to post on, appologise if I am wrong again.

  Am pretty much run out of idea what could be the problem, so in a last effort to try to solve this problem, I thought to post it here.

  I have a Toshiba SP4600 series (model PS460E), I went to format and reinstall a fresh XP install, it has now got a new 60gig IDE HARD drive, currently only 128meg ram, as it is not easy to find, and I did not belive he can handle a lot of anways.

  To start the automatic windows boot from the CD-ROM drive, it crosses all pretty fine, you see all the options of drivers loading etc. at the bottom of the screen. He then came to the "Setup starts Windows' and just hangs, does not move, do not disable, does nothing, just stay on that screen and nothing else, the CD-Rom and HARD drive seem to just stop as well.

  The HARD drive has been replaced as it had an old 20gig I thought could have been the problem.

  I used a large number of diagnostic tools, to test the memory, hard drive, card mother/etc, the only one who crashed out bombed was a stress test version that starts ok, then 15 minutes crashses, so not sure it would be.

  No idea how to fix this?

  as am enough out of all atm ideas :/

  > The HARD drive has been replaced as it had an old 20gig I thought could have been the problem.
  Did the same problem occurs using the old 20 GB HARD drive?
  If the same thing happened with the smaller HARD drive so I guess that this problem is NOT related to a HARD disk, but in another part

  Eventually he s a RAM who knows
  In many cases the RAM can be the problem when the laptop do not answer...

  What temperature?
  Have you noticed a temperature higher coming or warm air from the vents?
  The laptop seems to be old, maybe the cooling modules are dirty and cannot cool the processor properly?
  In such cases, it s advisable to clean the fan using a jet of compressed air

  In any case, I think you should also test the laptop with other RAM modules

• Re: Satellite L300-10 q - cannot install the recovery disk with XP SP2

  Hello

  My laptop started giving problems (slow start & suspended inbetween) so I tried to re-installation with installation disk but recovery whaile there ask lang. & confirmation of removal of data and after the installation of minutes collapsed & turn in DOS (X :) for admin.

  When I restarted labtop it shows Bootmgr has failed.

  I even tried to install XP SP2 after copying the files, it displays HARD drive not found.

  Pls help

  L300 - 10 q series

  Pls advice also how to check Windows XP is 32 or 64 bit?

  Thanks again

  If you try to install your laptop computer with the Microsoft installation disc, you need the SATA drivers. You can find it on the Toshiba site.
  You must load the drivers of an external floppy drive or you integrate into a new CD with nLite (www.nliteos.com).

  For the recovery disc you n t need these drivers because they are already on the disk.
  If you get the same problem with the recovery disk, you should check your disk with Drive Fitness Test (Google is your friend).

• Satellite A200 - PSAE6 U27 - cannot install Win XP - No HDD

  Information for us:

  HELO, I need help!

  What should I do with my Vista?
  I'm not entirely remove this system and install XP Profesional, but I can't because I when I try to install XP pops up the window with this information "you don't have a HARD drive or you do not have power supply on the HARD drive"

  It is impossible, because I can't turn on my laptop with Vista every day.

  Perhaps is - this error connect disk sata HARD... driver or bios driver?

  I n ' know if I think that good. Please help me...

• Satellite NB10-A-104 - cannot install Win 7 64 bit

  Hi all

  I can't install Windows 7 pro 64-bit original, on my laptop,
  probably the bios does not make me the boot on exsternal burner... the bios is version 1.00 and the hard drive is new...

  what I can do...
  Thank you very much

  If you want to boot from an external source (other then the internal HARD disk), you need to disable startup secure in the BIOS.

  But as far as I know the BIOS supports boot devices: USB FDD, primary HARD disk, USB memory and network (LAN)

• Satellite L300 - no sound after installing Win XP

  Hi all

  had to install xp because vista is not good for me. the system does not install sound card drivers, and Device Manager, there is no listed his card.
  I have yellow? marks on "PCI Device" I think it's the soundcard and "network controller".

  I searched this forum and got some results that looked like they can solve the problem, but unfortunately the recommended fix was removed by Microsoft.

  * Before would be to install the audio driver, you must first install the *.

  * KB888111.* and AUDIO KB835221 hotfix
  * Here are the patches from Microsoft. Search the net for download *.

  * After installation, restart the operating system, and then try to reinstall the driver sound again.*

  Microsoft, still have KB888111, but no KB835221, as they claim that it has been proven to fail!

• How do I not what SATA driver do I need for the Satellite L300 - 03C

  How do I not what SATA driver do I need for the Satellite L300 - 03C so I can make nlite

  Hello

  Your laptop seems to be a Satellite L300 - 03C PSLB8C-03C01X.
  As already indicated on your first visit to thread the Toshiba Canada page and choose this model of laptop on the driver page.
  http://209.167.114.38/support/download/ln_bymodel.asp

  Then download the Intel Matrix Storage Manager (SATA) - image of floppy drive. It of for Vista, but the files in this package should work with Win XP too.
  Include these files using nLite to create the new disk Win XP that contains SATA drivers.

  Finally use this disk to start.

• Cannot install Win 8 - Satellite Pro C660 does not detect HARD drive

  Hello

  My HARD drive died, so I decided to upgrade my Satellite Pro C660 - 1 9 to an SSD.
  I made a USB bootable with Win8 and starts very well.

  The problem is that it does not detect my SSD, so I can proceed with the installation.
  SSD appears in BIOS but not in Windows Installer.
  He said that there is a missing driver.

  I downloaded the AHCI drivers (XP, only ones available) and even in this case, after you have selected the only rider that appears, it says no new device found.

  I tried to change the SATA from AHCI mode to compatibility mode and it's the same thing...

  What can I do?

  Thanks for the help.
  Best regards
  Bruno Moreira

  More old Windows XP need a driver AHCI Intel's but I think this isn't a problem with SATA driver missing because as far as I know Windows 8 as well as Win 8.1 already contains the drivers to recognize the SSD or HARD disk drive.
  In addition, the installation of the OS should be possible even if the driver would be added for this procedure, you must use the "compatibility" mode
  As you say, the compatibility mode is not working too, so I think there is another problem.

  However, page driver Toshiba also provides a driver Intel RST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) (Windows 8 - updated) you can try to add during the installation of the OS.

  But I m wondering if you would be able to install this Win 8 on common SATA HDD.
  Have you tried to format the SSD using a different computer, then install Win 8?
  Give it a try.

• Can satellite L300-0HH (PSLB8C-0HH01X) - I install XP?

  Hello

  Can someone tell me if I can install XP on this computer? It's a Canadian model and they list only vista drivers (cough, sputum) on their Web site.

  Thank you

  Hello!

  Of course you can install Windows XP why not? ;)

  I have Satellite L300 too but it s a European model and so I downloaded and installed all the drivers for the Toshiba European page:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  There's the PSLB8E listed series, which should be similar to yours. In your case I would try, normally it should work.

  It would be nice if you give us feedback that it worked or not! :)

  Good bye
