• Satellite Pro L500-1W4 - cannot install Win 7 Pro after changing the HARD drive

  Hi all

  I need assistance with Windows.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro with Windows 7 preinstalled pro and the recovery DVD to downgrade to Windows XP Pro.
  I had to change the hard drive, so I try to reinstall Windows 7 from the recovery CD, but it does not work. He said that it is not possible to install this on this machine.

  So I tried with Windows XP CD recovery and no problem
  I'd rather have windows Windows 7 but I do not know how to retrieve
  Last information, the Windows XP CD recovery came with the laptop that Windows 7 was made by the store who sold me the computer.

  Thank you for your help

  As far as I know there is not a kind of limitation and if there is no problem with the original recovery for Win7 disc, you should be able to install it on any HARD disk that you use with your machine.
  I upgraded HDD to the SSD on my installation of picture machine and the restore worked without any problems.

  To be honest, it is not easy to say what the problem is here, but the Win7 installation disc is somehow suspect for me. I don't know what model of laptop you have exactly, but somehow, I feel you didn t get original drive Win7. Best evidence is the Windows XP Home edition recovery disk. The prinziple with Win7 is the same and it should works.

  When you use this disk you should have the menu as shown on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

  This document explains how this works with the original installation disc of recovery.

• Satellite Pro M70-113: cannot install Vista graphics driver and lines appears on the display

  Hello

  I have satellite pro m70-113 with ati x 700 graphics card.

  When I installed vista, he installed the default drivers for the x 700 'mobility radeon x 700-microsft Corp.-WDDM '.

  I've updated the display drivers for vista, that released by toshiba 2 days back... but the driver is not updated to the latest version, only the catalyst control center is installed when I ran the update of the driver of toshiba.

  The problem is that whenever I put my laptop in standby or hibernation and resume... the screen shows thin lines vertical/horizontal... and I can't use the laptop... and I have to still put the system to sleep, just to hope that it is not blocking the screen this time...

  This problem is 25% of the time only when resume...

  This problem is not resolved by the update driver for toshiba has released a few days back... as is not installs the drivers (I can't even install the drivers with the option "update drivers" of Device Manager and select file driver update from toshiba.) It says windows find new driver, but could not install the driver... Contact the manufacturer...)

  This snap shows the problem... : http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/2783/12042007366copyod1.jpg

  I updated the driver from an earlier version of catalyst, as it is downloaded from the ati site before that toshiba has released the update... this time it updates some 8. XXX version but the screen problem remains...

  Second, this update of the driver leaves me not sleep my system... the process starts for a sleep, but go back to the locked screen without making sleep ever... so I have no choice to get stuck with the default Windows... drivers having only the problem of the screen... and not the problem of sleep...

  Anyone here with a solution?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I have Satellite M70-159 and I noticed the same thing several times. For most Vista works well but I don't remember cases in which the described problem occurs. I was just curious on M70 Vista and have had no time to intensive testing.

  Anyway, it will be interesting to know if you have already updated the BIOS to the latest version 5.10. If this is not the case to do this and watch carefully if the problem persists.

• Satellite Pro 4600 PS460E - cannot install Win XP

  Since there are 2 variants of numbers on this laptop, am confused abit as forums to post on, appologise if I am wrong again.

  Am pretty much run out of idea what could be the problem, so in a last effort to try to solve this problem, I thought to post it here.

  I have a Toshiba SP4600 series (model PS460E), I went to format and reinstall a fresh XP install, it has now got a new 60gig IDE HARD drive, currently only 128meg ram, as it is not easy to find, and I did not belive he can handle a lot of anways.

  To start the automatic windows boot from the CD-ROM drive, it crosses all pretty fine, you see all the options of drivers loading etc. at the bottom of the screen. He then came to the "Setup starts Windows' and just hangs, does not move, do not disable, does nothing, just stay on that screen and nothing else, the CD-Rom and HARD drive seem to just stop as well.

  The HARD drive has been replaced as it had an old 20gig I thought could have been the problem.

  I used a large number of diagnostic tools, to test the memory, hard drive, card mother/etc, the only one who crashed out bombed was a stress test version that starts ok, then 15 minutes crashses, so not sure it would be.

  No idea how to fix this?

  as am enough out of all atm ideas :/

  > The HARD drive has been replaced as it had an old 20gig I thought could have been the problem.
  Did the same problem occurs using the old 20 GB HARD drive?
  If the same thing happened with the smaller HARD drive so I guess that this problem is NOT related to a HARD disk, but in another part

  Eventually he s a RAM who knows
  In many cases the RAM can be the problem when the laptop do not answer...

  What temperature?
  Have you noticed a temperature higher coming or warm air from the vents?
  The laptop seems to be old, maybe the cooling modules are dirty and cannot cool the processor properly?
  In such cases, it s advisable to clean the fan using a jet of compressed air

  In any case, I think you should also test the laptop with other RAM modules

• Satellite Pro A100 (PSAA3) - Cannot install the display driver because of the length of the specified directory path

  The problem is that your unzipped folder name is too long!
  You need to rename the folder. Take a shorter name!

• Satellite Pro A40-201 - cannot install the Win XP - partition not formatted

  Hello

  I have an A40-201 and the hard drive no longer works.
  So I thought I'd change.

  However, I found a problem, otherwise said, when I tried to install Windows XP, I found a mistake, "the score couldn't formatted when you reach 100% of the installation.

  I tried several disks hard and other operating systems, but I get the same message every time.
  The thing is I don't remember if I have to do something for the HD before you format it.

  I'd appreciate really any help you could offer.

  Thank you very much and sorry for the inconvenience.

  Hmmm. have you tried to format the HARD drive using an external USB 2.5 HDD case?
  Usually the Windows XP needs to format any HARD drive during the installation of the OS.

  Did you choose this option?
  If this isn't the case, you should do it.
  The best would be if you would like to format the whole HARD drive and erase all partitions too.

• Satellite Pro A100 PSAACE: cannot install the ATI display driver

  Hi all

  I experienced a series of problems with my card graph Mobility Radeon X 1400 that I'm sure that can be resolved by downloading the latest drivers. What I have to do on the Toshiba site like the ATI site offers no support for it. But I've known several problems to download the file archive.

  He always says that there is an error: 'error header... ". (missing or corrupted) "and he asks me to redownload the file, I did this three times now, with the same results, I'm starting to get a little frustrated - can someone + please help. I noticed that the file downloaded (and useless) is smaller (by more than 50%) than the expected size - I don't know if this helps all the...

  Preemptive thanks if you can help me with this problem.

  Hello

  What to say I noticed that drivers download server is very slow. Resembles overload eventually all packages have not passed correctly and so this error message is displayed.
  I know that this could be very frustrating and I really understand you because I tried to download the other driver and performance is really slow, but I put t see any other solution than to try to re-download the graphic driver package

  Good luck buddy

• Turn off the problem on Satellite Pro A210

  I'm having a problem with my Satellite Pro A210, running on XP. It seems to turn off without reason. I don't think it's a problem of overheating as it can sometimes after only a few minutes of use, and can stay on the day without problem. It is as if he goes into hibernation, although the blue power light remains on, but cannot be restarted without turning off the power and then walk back.

  Someone at - it ideas? Thank you.

• Satellite Pro A210 PSAFHE: need new HARD drive compatible

  Hello

  Jealous of my relationship with my Tosh laptop - my wife - angry of stupidity, decided to slam closed
  OOPS, it no longer works.

  After cooling down - she did not apologize, BUT said she would pay for the repair.

  After investigation, I feel it may be the hard drive - I have re-installed from master disks and it worked sort of--even allowed to install aol.
  AND he then stopped loading - hearing closely it seems to be looking for the hard drive to complete the load.
  It's a Toshiba Satellite Pro A210 IB1 model PSAFHE - 00800PEN and has a Hitachi hd
  HARD DRIVE: 5K 250-160
  Model: HTS542516K9SA00 5 v DC 700mA 160 GB SATA 5400 RPM

  I can't seem to find one anywhere - tried to contact Toshiba to know what would be appropriate replacements - picking the winning lottery numbers would be easier to get through Toshiba. So I thought I would try the forums.
  In my opinion, it's the hard drive BUT as a mere mortal, I could be wrong - all advice would be appreciated.

  Please tell us what drives fit
  concerning

  Hello

  It seems that the laptop supports a HARD drive 2.5 SATA.
  As the controller SATA HDD has no limitation, all SATA 2.5 hard drives should be compatible.

  If you want, so you can choose a 250GB 2.5 SATA HDD THAT and normally it should work as part of your laptop.

• Satellite Pro A210 - keyboard and touchpad stop working after hibernation

  I installed Windows 7 (32 bit) on my Satellite Pro A210 and have a similar problem. When it starts OK but after hibernation the keyboard and touchpad stop working after 3 minutes. The only way to fix it is a re-boot of the force.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Hello

  You have installed all the drivers for your laptop? I mean especially the chipset driver.
  Check this box!

  If you have yellow exclamation points in Device Manager, you must install all the missing drivers.

  Last but not least don't forget to install all Windows 7 updates available that you can get thorugh Windows Update.

  Sorry, but that's all I can say at the moment

• Of memory can what type of bars I use in Satellite Pro A210-1AZ

  I just bought the satellite pro a210-1az which has 1 GB ram samsung.
  I'm tempted to increase the amount of ram and I think theres 1 free slot, my best plan would be to exactly match the installed module.

  My problem is the determination this exactly.
  I googled the numbers on the module - no luck.

  The label on the statements of the 667 mhz box, but I saw the post 5? MHz.
  I don't want to buy the wrong kind.

  Please take a look here:
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=42617&ft=m&St=3

  According to this site, the laptop would support DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM barrettes.

  I think this should help to clarify your question.

• Satellite Pro A210-1AZ: what imaging software can I use

  People,

  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-1AZ.

  It works well, as far as I can tell, but I have a problem with the disk imaging software.
  I bought Acronis True Image 11 and it worked OK for Windows, but it wouldn't start in the program of either the Acronis Secure Zone, or starting from the bootable recovery media. (He did start, but the program would not load). Attempt to restore from Windows needs to restart before the process begins, with the result the same, the PC boots, but the program does not load.

  Acronis restore successfully to a partition that does not have the 'C', IE System partiton.

  I managed to get a refund of Acronis under their warranty of 30 days without any problem.

  I tried the software equivalent of Paragon.
  Without extensive trials I seem to have the same problem; It won't boot from the recovery media.

  Search for clues on the internet was not completely successful, but I'm not alone with the problem, and the feeling seems to be that it is something to do with SATA drives.

  I'd give 'Phantom' to try, but I don't want to pay for it and find it does not work and I can't get a refund. I can't find a trial version of it anywhere.

  Can someone advise me to partition imaging software which they KNOW works with this model, while booting to restore?

  Thanks in anticipation,

  Kind regards

  Hi Matt

  I think all professional work of imaging software works on your laptop.
  I think that you were not able to boot from the CD image will be created because you didn t includes the necessary Intel Matrix Storage Manager.

  All the portable era generation support the SATA controller (because of better performance), and so the laptops with the SATA drives.

  The Intel Matrix storage controller includes the SATA driver.

  For example; If you want to install XP on this laptop, you must first include the SATA driver using the F6 key during the installation procedure.
  Without the driver SATA XP will not see the HARD drive!

  I think that the SATA driver is a key.

  See you soon

• Satellite Pro A210 restart

  Hello

  It's my first time here posting and I could really use your help. I have a satellite pro a210 and me went to answer a phone call and it ran out of power and now he turns not again. I tried to take out the battery and hold the power button to drain it and then go back to the top and holding F8, F12, told me press and hold the back key while rebooting (all tried).

  Tried with battery and battery attached but nothing worked with the power cable. It has been like that for a few months and I'm out of ideas.

  If someone had a similar problem and knows a solution that would be great.

  What happen exactly when you press the power button / stop? Is there a reaction?
