Satellite Pro 440 - how to install the OS?

Hello.
I work with the old Satellite Pro 440. I have a problem with reinstalling Windows 98.

I don't have a CD of the device and the FDD. But I have installed MS-DOS 6.22 on the HARD drive and folder with Win98.
When I start to appear then receipt message on screen: "ATTENTION: a serious error occurred when writing on drive c. Retry (r)? Checked HARD drive on another PC and errors was not recognized. HDD (Toshiba MK6015) had divided to two parts: C - FAT 1024Mo, D - FAT32 rest.

Please help me.

How did you check the HARD drive? What tests did you use?
I have good experiences with the Drive Fitness Test (freeware).

This error is strange, but I think the best way would be if you format your drive and copy the files to the HARD drive.
Maybe this might help you.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - how to install the webcam?

    I got my laptop via my uni so did amyn backup discs (especially not the webcam).

    Basically my laptop is a Trojan virus on my webcam, set it and I restarted my computer. It is then flashed up on reboot that I need to install my webcam but I don't have the disk and now I can't use my webcam! What should I do?

    PS I'm not a genius with computers so please be easy on me with the language.

    Hi mate,

    If you need to reinstall the driver for the webcam you can download on the Toshiba site and all drivers for your laptop:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    I have too many Satellite Pro A300 and it s not delivered with the Toshiba Recovery disk because you create such a floppy yourself. So start the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop and you can create this disk. It contains a picture of the factory settings, and so you can restore the entire system every time.

    Hello

    I m wondering that you have installed Windows 7 on this good old classic. In my opinion Windows XP would be the best choice, but ok, you can do what you want ;)

    Anyway, AFAIK your laptop is equipped with an Intel graphics card then I recommend to download the driver form Intel directly because the Web from Toshiba site displays only the Windows XP display drivers.

    Thank you!!

    Hello!

    Your wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager, or you may notice a yellow exclamation?
    Her check first because otherwise, you can get the WLAN to work.

    In addition, you can activate WLAN with the material on the laptop switch which must be set on and the FN + F8 key combination.
    Check it!

    After this Free Config should find your WLAN router if you are in the range of that.

  • Satellite Pro A300: How to create the recovery disk

    Hello
    I just bought a Satellite Pro A300 with Windows XP.
    I want to know how I can or if I need to create a recovery disk that will reset the machine to its original state.
    The information gives instuctions on how to proceed for the Vista machines, but not for XP.

    I know that I can recover from the hidden partition, but where this is not possible, I wish I could get CD or DVD.
    There is a recovery CD included product that says only: "MS Windows XP" so I guess that it does not include drivers or Toshiba Software?

    Any help appreciated,
    Thank you

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - how to change the date and time in the BIOS

    Hello

    I received a satellite pro 6100 that had not been used for some time. Windows does not work then he reinstalled with the good drive.

    When I try and windows 'enable', I get the error 32777 and the laptop is unable to connect with the activation servers that a google leads to believe me that the date and time are incorrect in the bios.

    I know that Press esc to access the bios but there is no option to change the date and time in there. I put the date / the correct time in windows, but this does not seem to synchronize with the bios. I've updated to the latest version of the bios, but this is not enough.

    How can I change or update the time in the bios?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I doubt this time and date setting BIOS does affect Windows activation time Windows doesn t affect it in my opinion. There must be another reason for this problem.
    You can activate Windows by phone?

    Normally the date and time in the BIOS can change you if you mark the date or time, and then press on + or - to change this. Sometimes you have to press PageDown/to the top according to the model of BIOS or laptop.
    Usually in the configuration of the BIOS you will find a brief info how changing the values.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - how to access the installation of Vista hidden partition?

    AHOY!

    I have a Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDA 2000R

    It had Windows Vista installed when I got it, but after a while, had to reformat, so I did, (I want to reformat my computer every 6-12 months on average), it came only with XP disks even if he got a serial number for Vista on the underside of the laptop so I installed XP. That was about 2-3 reformats there now.

    However, so that finding drivers I've seen mention of a hidden partition to reinstall Vista (which I hope it is 64-bit) and tried to do this several times but unfortunately it does not work, I guess that maybe what XP installation I can accidentally deleted or something? (Thought they had in fact on some solid state memory which could not be written more or something.)

    * Is there a way I can access it, take another that won't cost a ridiculous amount (for example download) or a nice person enough to create an image to download on a site or something that I can download file sharing? *

    I have also a spare copy of Vista (and a bit of XP) on the drive, none of them will work?

    + Another thing which I am interested in is can I get any of the preview of Windows 8 OS that will run on this laptop? Apparently it improved performance on Vista and W7 would be convenient for running on a laptop, and I have also heard say it is possible to upgrade to the full version of the preview or W7 for a minimal cost and would probably be much cheaper than other methods if possible. +

    And I'm actually quite handy with computers, so don't be afraid to throw big words at me,

    (Tried the methods found on the manual on page 3-8 ([link: http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/pro/a300/psagda-02000r/download?os=22]).)

    I have European A300 and I believe that the principle on the rest of the same models.
    A300 was offered with Vista preinstalled but without recovery disc Vista. Image that contains the operating system, drivers, tools and utilities for recovery has been saved on the HARD drive and with book factory owner was able to begin the installation of HARD drive recovery. It works with the factory only settings.

    With preinstalled Toshiba laptop recovery disk creator owners have been able to create the recovery disk that can be used if the disk HARD recovery doesn't work anymore.
    If you don t have access to this image saved on HARD drive recovery, you must use the recovery disc. If you don t have the disc that you have a problem. Recovery image can not be downloaded. All you can download are the unique rivers, tools and utilities that you can use if you install a clean version of the OS (operating system).
    On the European models, recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder called HDDrecovery.

    Anyway, A300 works with Win7 32 bit. I installed it on my machine and I m very happy with it.
    > Another thing which I am interested in is can I get any of the preview of Windows 8 OS that will run on this laptop?
    I put t know who should give you this overview, but the fact is that you get it from Toshiba. You should check if you can get it in another way.
