Satellite L650D-120 - impossible to install various OS

Hello

I am trying to install Windows XP Professional SP3 and Linux Ubuntu 10.10, but these systems do not recognize my laptop HARD drive or same installation process suddenly crashes before that. The only information that I could find sources online, it's that many people have absolutely the same problem as I do, without any possible solution for her.

For example, I feel something like that while the process of installation of Ubuntu Linux:
https://lists.Ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-bugs/2010-September/144973.html

The BIOS update does not resolve the problem at all.

What should I do? I would use the other OS, and not only Windows 7, but Windows XP, Ubuntu Linux, because the OS 2. Some sources describe that SATA drivers must be added manually to the image of the operating system, but I don't want to use all of the methods that are not supposed to be used by default.

> I am trying to install Windows XP Professional SP3 and Linux Ubuntu 10.10, but these systems do not recognize my laptop HARD drive or same installation process suddenly crashes before that.

The point is this laptop support SATA HDD.
You must install the SATA driver before trying to install Win XP or you must set the option in the BIOS: AHCI SATA mode compatible.

Using compatibility mode no SATA driver is needed.

Check it!

  • Can satellite L650D - 12 p - I install a Linux distribution on it?

    Hello.

    5 months ago I've done probably one of my biggest mistakes; I bought a Satellite L650D - 12 p. To my horror, I discovered the inability of the computer to use, or even to install Linux any.

    Since I bought it, I tried about 4 times a month, to install Linux, nothing helps. I tried searching through forums of Linux, tried several settings, etc. BIOS Insyde H2O L650D - just 12 p does not work with any distribution, the newest BIOS (which was released 6 months ago) doesn't make any difference either. ACPI is totally off, the DSDT tables are corrupt. Other people say ACPI general problems with Toshiba machines; It seems I'm not the only one.

    This is how it is supposed to be? The customer is refused, the right to use the operating system he wishes to? We are forced to use only Microsoft products? Even Apple computers can install any other operating systems.

    I thought that the age of the software forcing on people have long since disappeared. Alas, it isn't.

    Hi Sylvestre,.

    In General, you can install what you want on your laptop. Linux should also be possible, but there is no official support for Toshiba how to do this and there is no Linux drivers for this. If you want Linux, see a few external pages for advice and useful tips.

    In addition, this could be an interesting document for you:
    You know a useful site for Linux on PC support?

    Alternative install Linux on a virtual machine. You can use VMware or Microsoft Virtual PC. Then you can install Linux and use it. :)

  • Satellite A200 PSAE6E: Impossible to install the audio drivers after installing Win XP realtek

    Hello...

    Recently, I repartitioned my laptop HD to install XP and kubuntu (it came with vista)... However, I was not able to install audio drivers for its audio devices...

    The laptop is a toshiba Satellite A200-PSAE6E and everest indicates the following audio controllers:

    ATI hd 2xxx hdmi @ ati radeon hd 2600 - controller high definition audio
    Realtek alc268 @ intel 82801hbm ich8m - audio controller high definition

    First I tried to download the audio drivers high definition realtek web site (32-bit version of windows xp). I tried to run the installation, manually navigating to WDM file during the installation of the pilot and navigation manually the folders where the drivers have been copied during the installation under c:\windows\system32\... all to nothing done...

    Then I tried to download drivers toshiba official of the support web site of europe from toshiba for the realtek chip... I've lived the same behavior (both when you run the Setup program and install manually force pilots)

    Then I tried to download the drivers for ATI HDMI audio device from realtek website... with the same results...

    Windows tells me that it was impossible to find a driver in the any of the archives...

    The only thing that could be the culprit because as far as I can tell, is that I installed service pack 3 RC2...

    Any help would be greatly appreciated,
    Tasos

    P.S. I've tried the two automatic installation through specification of a folder and choose the options "I will manually choose a driver from the list" in the hardware installation wizard... the result is always the same... Note that the audio works perfectly under ubuntu...

    P.S.2 IMPORTANT! I recently discovered that toshiba offers bios versions for the A200 PSAE6E depending on if it is equipped with windows xp or vista...

    This refers to which the operating system has been installed when the system was purchased, or the operating system that is currently used? Can I upgrade the Bios of my laptop with the XP version or this break from things?

    Hello

    Regarding the sound issue.
    A lot of people already asked for it here on the forum and my knowledge the driver sound doesn't work because that some Member States the fixes and patches are missing.

    Please check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums//thread.jspa?MessageID=113124

    You will need to install KB888111 and KB835221 hotfix

    With regard to the BIOS;
    Yes, some series of laptops needs a version of XP BIOS if you want to install and use the XP on the laptop. AFAIK the A200 is one of these series of laptops.

    Good bye

  • Satellite M40X-183: Impossible to install photoshop CS2

    I have a Satellite M40X-183. I tried to install Photoshop CS2 and it installs everything but the help files and I wait for hours complete the installation, but it is not. Before it took me a long time to set up but once I updated my toshiba software he showed some changes and installed more quickly but still stuck using the part files. It seems to install but it does not actually install anything this either fight the help files and I install Photoshop CS2 on my desktop from the cd, it works very well.

    I have similar problems with some other proggrams running.
    Is there anyway I can install photoshop? has anyone else had the same problem I have?

    Hello

    It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You will be very happy if someone has exactly the same problem and can give you some explanations. I have installed and tested a lot of different software on my Tecra and up to now, everything works fine.

    Problem is that Toshiba is not responsible for the non-Toshiba software and if no one can help you try to contact Adobe support.

    Sorry, but I don't see any other solution.

    Good luck!

    Hi keiberg,.

    If you perform a reinstallation always use your CD of tools & utilities Toshiba. Normally the same drivers as you can find on the internet. I don't know that it was your mistake.

    All the drivers on the internet are updated regularly and I can't imagine for me that there is something wrong.

    Hello

    This sounds really weird. Are you sure to you´ve downloaded the correct drivers for your computer? What system do you have? XP or Vista?
    Maybe you´ve downloaded a version of Vista, and you have XP. It would be useful and enjoyable if say you what system you have.

    Alternatively, you can visit this site:

  • Satellite A100-455: Impossible to install the LAN driver

    Hello

    I have recently re installed my dual boot Linux/Windows. Linux works fine, but under windows, it refuses to install the LAN Driver (Ethernet controller).

    I installed before the chipset and it still does not work. All the drivers have been downloaded from the Web from Toshiba website.

    Any idea on what could be the problem?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I know that this question;
    I think you just tried to install a LAN driver is not compatible.

    The A100-455 seems to belong to the PSAA9E series.
    If you choose this series then you will find two different Lan drivers;
    Intel v9.2.24 is a driver Pro1000 and Intel v8.0.43.0 is a driver of Pro100.

    Check both!

  • Re: Satellite A300-1LT - impossible to install the ATI catalyst control center

    I can't install sound pretty boring - ATI catalyst control center. To be honest, everything works fine without it, but in a few days, I'll get HDTV, so I thought why not install now to check the options in it. I installed the latest versions of ATI drivers, choose the right system (vista 32 bit), but for some strange reason, I do not see anywhere, not in the start Panel, not in c-program files-ati tehnologices where its supposed to be installed.

    As I sad, I have no problem with my grapfic card, I just wanted to be able to play with the scope setting resolutions when my TV is used.

    I have the ati 3470 graphic card.

    Hi Hrvoje

    If I understand you right, you use now non - Toshiba ATI display driver. Am I right about that?
    I mean I don't think that Toshiba offers several versions of ATI drivers for your model laptop.

    Where you Born these drivers? On the Toshiba download page?

  • Impossible to install the operating system using the product on Satellite 1110 recovery CD

    I had to replace my hard drive after the failure, but impossible to install Windows XP Home (Home) from the recovery CD. I followed the instructions on the CD case, but nothing happens, just a cursor flashing at the top left of the screen. If I try to install XP on a disk (which I just can't finish because it is already registered), then the installation begins as it should. A disc of windows 2000 installs also successfully.

    I realize that it could be the drive itself, but it does not appear the disk is not bootable. I will be grateful for suggestions.

    Simon

    Hello Simon

    Supplied restore CD is bootable. If I remember well, you should have 2 recovery (1/2 and 2/2) CD. It sounds stupid, but you can try to start the procedure of facilities using CD 2/2. A few months ago, I read a topic where a member of the forum has reported on the incorrect labelling of CD.

  • Where can I find Win 7 32 bit drivers for Satellite L650D - 12 p

    Hello

    It seems that only the Win 7 64 bit drivers are available for Satellite L650D - 12 p PSK1SE series at the moment that maybe Toshiba will come out the 32-bit driver in the near future let's hope

    But if you want, you can install the Toshiba tools and utilities that are released for other series like Satellite L550D. Tools such as VAP, ReelTime, Touch Pad Driver or BT stack can be downloaded from other series, because these aren't portable model relating to the software.

    Of course, you should pay attention to the display driver, WLan or LAN drivers, it depends on the chip.
    WLAN drivers can be downloaded here:
