  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

• Install Windows 8 automatically formats the hard drive? If this isn't the case, I should format it FAT or NTFS drive before installing Win/8?

  Install Windows 8 automatically formats the hard drive?  If this isn't the case, I should format it FAT or NTFS drive before installing Win/8?

  No, this isn't format the hard drive, what's done is put your existing version of Windows in a folder called "windows.old", it indeed erases old files of version and folders, leaving free space on the existing partition "NTFS" (formerly ocupied by your previous version of windows) in which is installed Windows 8.

  And "NTFS" is the only file system that supports Windows 8.

• I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed. My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.

  Original title: Vista to Win 7 to win 10

  I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed.  My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.  I have a new full version of Windows 7 Pro SP1 with an activation key.  I have experience update to Win 10 of Win 7, but worry about the installation of Win 7 over Vista.  I guess I have to do a clean install.  There is no problem to meet the minimum requirements of 10.  Can someone give me some advice on the start-up of the conversion of Win 7?  Just insert the disk?  Everything has been backed up and it's ready to go!  Thank you.

  Since the family migration to Windows Vista Premium to Windows 7 Professional it will install a clean place, why not simply use your Windows 7 Professional product key to perform a custom Windows 10 Pro install from the go?

  I don't see the need to bother installing Windows 7 Professional.

• 3440 CT Poertege: install Win 2000 without floppy

  I have an old protégé 3440CT but I don't have the external disk, I only have the external cd-rom drive.
  When I bought the computer second hand, it installed windows Millennium Edition and I decided to install windows 2000.

  Because I don't have an external floppy drive, I decided to go down the internal disk (hard drive), put in a usb adapter and connect it to my desktop pc. I formatted the drive and created a partition where I copy all installation windows 2000 cd.

  But when I put the hard drive again in the protégé and restart the computer, the disc starts, it was not allow to restart. And appeared an insert saying message the disk in the drive.

  I just want to know if its possible to install the win2000 in my portege make a copy of the installation cd on a partition on the hard drive, and if not, how can I install it in my protected?

  Hello

  I think you need to start Notepad using the floppy drive and boot disk. When start I presume you can access second partition and run the installation procedure. I didn t try before but in my opinion, it should be possible. Some users on this forum have reported on this possibility.

  If know you more please let me know.

  Also, I believe that this good old classic is not supported for Vista too.

  Maybe you can do something to buy the new laptop designed for Win7. ;)

• Satellite 2210CDT: two problems after installing Win XP

  Hello! Maby it sounds funny but I found Toshiba Satellite 2210CDT inside my closet, installed Windows XP (oem supplied with the mouse, I bought some time ago) and it works!
  The only problems I have are:
  * When the system is in hibernation, it is impossible to 'wake up' (I remmember in Win98 in this laptop there is problem);
  * I don't really have the tools provided with Win98 came with the laptop (ie.battery status and so...)

  Appreciate the help, Mike

  PS sorry if I post in a bad place in the forum, but this is my first post (I hope you can understend...)

  Hello

  Satellite 2210CDT is an ancient and you should be lucky that Windows XP runs on you laptop.
  But this unit has been designed and delivered before the era Windows XP started.
  I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and there is no drivers for Windows XP. I found drivers only for W2k and Win98.
  Unfortunately, if you use the Win XP on your laptop you must do without drivers Toshiba, tools and utilities.

  I found a utility to do Hibernation for Win98 on the Toshiba site. I think that this is a utility that is important to use the hibernation mode. But as I said, it is available for Win98.

  Your laptop supports the Atheros WLan card. Right?

  Therefore, install the driver Atheros Wlan, Atheros Bluetooth driver filter and battery Toshiba BT package.

  Then BT must be installed correctly and you should be able to activate it in order to start the pairing process.

• Satellite Pro A100 driver Modem for Win XP (PSAAPE)

  I recently rebuilt an A100 (PSAAPE) with Windows XP (SP2) and after downloading all the drivers from the Toshiba site downloads, I installed everything goes well apart from the internal modem.

  When I run the Setup it seems to install OK but when I check the Device Manager there is always a PCI device that should install and this is certainly the modem as there is not currently installed modems. Can someone let me know how I can install the modem in this notebook I've tried everything I can think off.

  Thank you
