Satellite P300 - 19 H: can I install Linux without losing the warrany?

Hello

I'm a french so please forgive me for my bad English.
I just want to know if it is possible to install Linux on my system without compromising my warranty.

My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite P300 - 19H
The current operating system is Vista Premium Home Edition (pre-installation on my laptop)
I paid for 3 year extended warranty, that's why I want to be sure I can install Linux.

If it is possible, I have to take certain steps before you try to install it in a Dualboot with Vista?

Thanks for the reply.

Hello

You can install Linux without losing the warranty. Toshiba doesn't support Linux on this laptop, but you can install it of course.

If you want to do a dual boot with Vista and that you are interested in a version of Ubuntu, you should take a look at the Wubi:
http://wubi-Installer.org/
It is a sure way to install Ubuntu on laptop with Vista installed.

Check it!

  • Install Linux without risking the "Restore Windows Vista" partition! Pavilion 6540eo

    I would like to install Ubuntu on my laptop.

    But a friend of mine, earlier employed by a call to HP support, said that if I mess with the partition table, even if I do not change the recovery partition itself, I could ruin the restore function.

    If this is the case of tha then it is a problem since Linux wants to add a swap partition.

    Someone can confirm if this is true or not?

    Stefan

    Yes, this is usually the case. Only way to run the recovery partition after changing is to "Mark as active" the recovery partition and restart.

    If you do not have yet_Make your Vista recovery cd/DVDs, then he wll be as simple as boot from to restore the original configuration:

  • How can I install FireFox without all the addons? I want to just Firefox or IE 2nd best.

    I installed Firefox and these add ons was attached to it. Add ons like Nation Zoom and a pc fix and a speed of the pc programs. All I want is FireFox and nothing more. After got rid of all the "in bulk", I had to uninstall FireFox too. I therefore resorted to IE. I much prefer to have Firefox on IE, but if she came with the programs I don't want to, I can live with IE. I will also tell my friends about my experience with Firefox. I had no problem in the neck.

  • How can I sync iTunes without losing the music

    I'm sorry to post a question too incredibly basic, but I want to check that I erase all the music that I recently and laboriously copied from disk to iTunes.

    I have not synced with my iPod Classic for almost a year - in fact, I don't think I ever it synchronized with this computer. But I had a bad experience in the past where, instead of copying music from my computer to iPod, iTunes copied the (much less) of songs from the iPod to the computer and erased everything. Not a happy event.

    What would be my settings to make sure that when I sync the music will copy only - in a way the computer to iPod?

    If it is contained on the device that is not in your library see recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device. Back up your library with Time Machine, or tools such as Carbon Copy Cloner or Synkron which can maintain two copies of a folder synchronized with each other. If you start by restoring the device that anything on this subject will be wiped, otherwise if there are purchases made on your account and that are not in your library, they must be copied into it. If there are other accounts that your computer is not authorized then purchases you will be prompted. Otherwise, you can select which can be synched to the device and it will be updated. Your library will not be affected bar any transfer purchases. If something goes wrong, that you have a backup in place to restore.

  • Can I install OneNote 2003 from the recovery disk?

    I need a clarification (my Toshiba reseller and Microsoft technical support have proved to be also useless)
    I have a Toshiba Satellite recovery and product

    Recently (by mistake), I uninstalled Microsoft OneNote 2003
    It is still on my recovery CD, I got the license number but I can't install it without reinstaling the entire system and formatting my hard drive?

    And I really want to do.
    Is there another way?

    Thanks for your help

    > Recently (by mistake), I uninstalled Microsoft OneNote 2003
    Before you take your recovery disk and format the HDD all new installation, you should try to use the System Restore tool in your Windows operating system.
    There is an option that allows you to enable the operating system to the point of time at the beginning.
    Maybe it will work

    is this possible?
    There is a place for him but no sata connection on the motherboard where can I find this connector

    No you can not install the second HDD because there is no connector on the HARD drive that would be impossible to connect the HARD drive to the mobo.
    And no, it of not possible to upgrade the mobo with this connector.

    The X 200 has two HARD drive bays because certain X 200 support 2 hard drives and some don t support.

  • How can I re - install firefox without losing my data. It is infested bame ad.

    Firefox is infested with "ads name.

    How can I get rid of it or how can I
    Re-install firefox without losing any data?

    There is a rash that goes around, and the solution is not yet clear 100%. I suggest try reinstalling this way:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it is not about the deletion of your settings, it comes to ensure that program files are-own and contain no alien code files. As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

    (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 37.0.1 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (2) close Firefox (if applicable).

    (3) to rename the program folder

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    Any improvement?

    Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • \OldFirefox\Plugins
    • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins
