  Hi Patrick,

  To be honest, your ad is very difficult to understand and I don t know what you mean exactly.

  According to your assignment, it seems that you need a driver and you can get all the drivers here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  In regards to the FN keys you have Toshiba Value added Package, and Flash Cards Support utility. Everything can be downloaded from the official page of Toshiba.

• Satellite L300 PSLB0E - cannot install Vista and Win XP

  Hello

  I have a L300, model number PSLB0E sat. \
  It was originally loaded with vista home premium, but it starts now not at all.
  I made a disc of vista Home premium and the number to go with it, but it gets as far as "windows installation" but then it stops.

  I tried to new hard drive, same loading XP pro not working!
  I think it's Bios, but after the download from Toshiba on this PC and transfer it to a memory stick, my laptop can't see it?

  Please can someone point me in the right direction?

  A big thank you in advance Paul

  Hi mate

  Please check in the BIOS if the disc is visible.
  If so, then set compatible SATA to AHCI mode and then try to boot from the Vista or Win XP disc.

  But if the HARD drive is not visible in the BIOS then it would mean that the HARD drive is dead and so you cannot install the operating system.

  Check it!

  Hello

  Please see the Knowledge Base Microsoft for all BSOD codes:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/324103

  In any case, this means that you have integrated a bad driver AHCI or you don t use a.
  The point is before installing Windows XP, you need the right driver AHCI because otherwise you will get a BSOD or your HARD drive will not be recognized.
  On laptops equipped with Intel chipset, you need the Intel Storage Manager driver package because it contains the correct driver for you. You can download it on the Toshiba site or the Intel Web site.

  The drivers, you can copy on an external floppy drive and then you load it after booting from the XP disc by pressing F6. Or you create a new installation with our own drivers disc, and then you don't need an external floppy drive. For this, you can use nLite.

  Finally and most importantly, I think that this Toshiba link might be useful for you:

  Hello, I have a Satellite Pro A200, PSAE4E-046018N5 and I am trying to install Windows 7 but I can't go to step one because it is not found a driver:
  A message box saying: required A driver of currency for the CD/DVD drive is missing. If you have a driver on floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.
  -What to do?

  Best regards

  Hi Peter,.

  Try you to an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If Yes, please try a new and clean Windows 7 installation. It work?

  Another question: your CD/DVD drive works properly or it appears with a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager?
  In your case, I would try to remove the drive from Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After that the drive will be recognized automatically.

• Satellite Pro L40 - cannot install Windows XP

  Material: Satellite Pro L40, HDD 80 GB, 1.5 GB of RAM

  Software: Windows XP + SP2 install CD, floppy disk with AHCI HDD ICH8M_32bit drivers drivers created according to the instructions in "how to install Windows XP on a L40.pd"f of Toshiba (which is pretty outdated by the way!)

  Problem: The start is fine, after pressing F6 quick to add drivers is very good, set up windows starts.
  Then I get this message on the screen: insert the disc labeled "Intel Matrix Storage Manager" in the A: drive. Press ENTER when you are ready.
  This is not mentioned in the installation instructions.

  Well, I don't have a disc labeled like that. I only have the disk that I created according to the instructions in the PDF above.
  It is already in the drive, so I press ENTER and nothing happens.

  My only other option is to quit smoking. Tried to quit smoking and going through the whole process several times - always eventually return to this impasse.

  (sigh)

  Can anyone help? Please?

  I think that you have made a mistake, because I never have problems to use the SATA drivers.
  Have you tried to do the floppy drive with the drivers and where did you download the drivers? Maybe you should try to download again on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  And have you tried to create your own with the drivers installation disk? You can do this with nLite for example. I prefer this because that is why I n t need an external floppy drive.
  It s worth a try! ;)

• Satellite A200-137 - cannot install windows after the hard disk crash

  last week my a200-137 crashed and now I have the new hitachi 500 GB hard drive on it, even before the accident.
  I have install with Toshiba recovery DVD windows Vista on it and after succesfull installed I have to start windows, it says prepare for first use windows then I have to wait a while and then I get the message that windows setup is not complete. But it is complete!

  After trying to install 3 times with recovert I tried to install windows xp.
  After a few minutes and transering files, I don't get the message no disc found! It is said that there is no hard drive on the laptop!
  But when I start the start menu or the settings menu, I can see the 500 GB Hitachi hard drive!

  So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?

  > So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?
  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say why you can not install recovery image. It would be interesting to know if the same thing will happen when you replace the HARD with the same or identical.
  This title was the original HARD drive?
  If possible, try to get original Microsoft installation disc and check if the HARD drive will be recognized by Vista or Win7 and of course if you will be able to install and boot OS preinstalled.

  Regarding the installation of Windows XP Home edition: it is well known that the WXP installation will start properly due to lack of SATA driver that must be loaded prior to installation of WXP begins.
  Check out this forum and you will find hundreds of threads with detailed explanation why this happen and what can you do about it.

• Satellite P300-1GN - cannot install Windows XP SP3

  Hi all!

In the PowerQuest Partition Manager both hard drives have error partition #702 (something like that number) but under Windows Vista and 7, drives are works fine without any errors.

  Needs a very fast before going to Toshiba service desk information.

  Thanx.

• Satellite Pro L20 - cannot install Windows XP

  Hello!

  I discovered this great forum and wanted to try my luck with the following problem. Any help at all is greatly appreciated!

  I do a clean install of Windows XP on my Toshiba Satellite Pro LP20. I don't have the original Windows XP cd that came with the computer, but have you tried many (legitimate) copies of Windows XP with the same result:

  The first step of the installation works fine, IE. files are copied from the CD to the hard drive and the computer restarts once the process is complete. However, during the restart to calculate, is wrong on the second phase of the facility (where continues the installation of windows XP graphic), but goes back to the DOS file copy process. This means, even if the files have been successfully copied from the CD to the hard drive, the computer does not recognize that there is a current operating system.

  The problem is not in the boot order, like the HARD drive is my number 1 option, and tried without the installation Cd in the drive. In this case the computer says only: "no operating system found".

  Where is the problem? Is this a problem of motherboard BIOS, or do you recon that the HARD disk is somehow broken? I know that the problem is not in the XP installation CD, because it works fine on other computers.

  Thank you!

  It's not easy to say what is the problem and what are the causes of the problem.
  You can try another drive to install Microsoft?

  In my opinion, it could be a problem with the HARD drive. Then you should check this with the Drive Fitness Test.
  Google for this test, it of quite easy to use.

• Satellite M50-106: cannot install Windows XP service pack

  Hello

  I have a Satellite M50-106. I have a CD of Windows XP without SP1 or SP2 I want to install (don't ask me why :) Anyway, I can't past the screen 'Setup starts windows', computer just hangs. Must be a driver problem. Does anyone know which driver is needen?

  Peter

  Hi Peter

  AFAIK you can't install any driver before the installation process is complete and the OS starts. There are just standard divers from Microsoft installed. I really don know why it freezes, but if there is any attempt of the possibility of installing Win that include SP1. If you find something interesting, please let me know.

• Satellite L650-1GQ - cannot install Windows XP

  I bought the new notebook L650-1GQ without Windows System. I wanted to install XP system, but any time I go to the BIOS and choose that it will leave the CD, at the beginning I had information: check the connection of the cable! PXE - M0F: existing Intel PXE ROM. No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key.

  What's wrong? Please help me.

  Hey Buddy,

  Have you already tried another disc of Windows (XP) If you can boot from it?

  I think get you this error message because no operating system is installed and the computer laptop isn't able to boot from that disk. Maybe it s scratched or something else

• Satellite L300 - 22L - cannot reocver operating system after installing Win XP

  Hello

  I bought the Satellite L300 - 22L with preinstaled Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
  My computer has a problem and the blue screen appeared on my screen so I tried to reinstall it.

  I don't have any recovery CD, so I decided to install my old Windows XP.

  In the BIOS I changed the hard drive SATA compatibility mode before installing.
  During the instalation I deleted the partitions of origin and the new C: and D: partitions with sizes like origins.
  XP works fine, but I would like to recover the original Vista Home Premium laptop.

  I can't launch the utility of recovery with 'Zero' button after starting.
  How can I start the other way recovery utility?

  Thank you

  > I don't have a recovery CD so I decided to install my old Windows XP.
  You didn t receive the recovery disk because there was an option to create the recovery disk!
  Mentioned everywhere, you should read the user manual.

  > During the instalation I deleted the partitions of origin and the new C: and D: partitions with sizes like origins.
  > cannot start with 'Zero' button recovery utility after the start.

  First of all, I think that it is a European model for Toshiba laptop. In this case, you must press F8 for advanced boot menu and there you can choose repair my computer option. In a new window should appear the recovery option.

  BUT it will not work now because you have formatted and recreated the partitions!
  Now, you have no choice as to order the new recovery disk to reinstall Vista again.
