Satellite P100-488 - installation Toshiba tools and utilities on Windows 7

Hello everyone,

I bought a pre-order Windows 7 Professional for my laptop, and want to upgrade to Windows Vista Home Premium installed on it at the moment.

However, I have just one question:

-Do you think I'll be able to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional without a complete installation Windows Vista Home Edition?
- Otherwise, if I have to perform a complete installation, then is it possible to install the Toshiba tools and utility from the CD (I have not found anything to do)?

Thanks in advance.

Fred

Hi Fred

As I see you have two questions. ;)

Initially, I would say I don't think anyone here will be able to provide accurate answers, but here's my opinion:

Q1 full installation for the installation of the OS I prefer, but I think that you will be able to make Win7 upgrade. Problem is how the Toshiba tools and utilities will work after this upgrade. As far as I know in the past Toshiba has suggested to abolish some tools and utilities before installation upgrade begins.
Then perhaps you should think of the complete installation of operating system. I think it is the best solution for you.

Q2 I the history I see a problem, what happens if Toshiba does not provide supported Win7 for your laptop model? You will then have problems and try to use Vista stuff in hopes that it works with Win7 too. Anyway, in this forum, you can find several assignments where people confirm that most of the stuff Vista with Win7 runs.

Good luck Fred.

  • Tools and Utilities CD - where can I download it?

    Anyone know where I could download tools and Utilities CD for a Toshiba Satellite laptop?
    I had to do a cover of product on my Toshiba laptop, and some of the first programs are missing. When I go instead of the icons for these items, I wonder to insert the tools and the utilities disc I ever received when I bought the machine. Drag and Drop CD was one of the programs. Kind regards Brian

    The Toshiba recovery CD and the Tools and utilities CD, you can order from the Toshiba service partner but as said in the first response you can download the drivers and other applications from the Web from Toshiba website.

    PS: Before you begin any installation of the drivers you must first check the installation instructions.

  • Tools and utilities disk

    I had to reload my Satellite because of problems. To cut a long story short, I lost the Drag and Drop program.

    I tried to reload the program from the icon on the desktop, but at this point the configuration tools and utilities disk is requested.

    I don't have this drive. It has not been provided with my laptop. I tried Toshiba customer but have not had much success.

    Can anyone help? Where would I get this drive or download the software. Thank you very much

    Hey Buddy,

    have you tried to download the "Drag and Drop" utility on the Toshiba site? The reason why I ask is because you can download all of the programs that was on your 'CD utilities & tools' Internet.

    I had the same problem and I looked at this site:

    Hello

    I searched a bit on the Microsoft page and found this knowledge base article:
    + * You receive a "error 1603: a fatal error occurred during installation" error message when you try to install a Windows Installer package * +.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/834484

    Article Microsoft said that the error message appears because only:

    + - File that you try to install the Windows Installer package to is encrypted. +
    + - The drive that contains the folder that you are trying to install the Windows Installer package is available as a replacement player. +
    Account of + - the SYSTEM does not have the full control permissions on the folder that you are trying to install the Windows Installer package to. You notice the error message because the Windows Installer service uses the SYSTEM account to install the software. +

    I recommend that you check this document and try the workaround provided by Microsoft.

    Maybe it helps

    Good luck.

  • Error when installing the Toshiba tools and energy savings

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-771 and installed Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2.
    Subsequently, I installed all the drivers. After that, I wanted to install the Toshiba Utilities and received an error message: "Toshiba common Module not found! This configuration will end."
    Also, I tried to install the tool of Eve, which is more important than the uilities I think. And here, I got the error message: "a fatal error has occurred. The program will end. "Code: 0x7E.
    I don't know what I can do. I also installed the patches for Windows that are on the Toshiba ToolCD. But the problem is still there.
    The difference between these two errors, is the installation of the configuration of the utilities stop before finishing the installation. On the installation of safer food, she completed at 100% and put an end to the installation or the program after installation.

    Maybe someone can help me.

  • Satellite P100-332: Upgrade HARD drive and 4 GB of RAM

    Hello

    I'm new to the forum...
    Well, I want to change 2 things on my Toshiba Satellite P100-332

    1. I have 2 GB of RAM at 533 mhz and I saw on Everest, as well as on the information that I put up. 4 GB RAM 667 mhz. If I want to ask if theres no limitation about to use a special brand of RAM? Or can I use any laptop RAM to 667 mhz? I buy 2 DIMM 2 GB 667, to stay with 4 GB RAM 667 mhz.

    2 - my laptop came with a 4200 RPM ATA hard drive and I want to know if I can change my hard drive to another as one with 7200 RPM SATA as a http://www.pcvonline.com/productDetails.aspx?prodID=7434 and I have not seen yet if the Board supports, but does anyone know if I can put one like this?

    Hello

    (1) the Satellite P100-332 RAM can be upgraded up to 4 GB and you can also use the modules of 667 Mhz because AFAIK the FSB supports 667 MHz also.
    But the fact is that Windows 32-bit (Vista and XP) would see only 3.2 GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS.

    (2) the laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and this is why you must use a SATA HDD. But usually it s no matter if the HDD SATA supports the 7200 RPM. In my opinion, you should be able to use these 7200 RPM HARD drive.
