  Hello

  There are several questions and perhaps the best solution for you is to install the new OS by using recovery image. I know, it's more radical but the simplest method. After 30 minutes, you must again factory settings and everything will work correctly.
  I'm sure that everything worked fine at first.

  If you want to fix this only solution is to reinstall the value-added driver package and display, and hope that this will help.

• Need help with the installation of Windows XP Home on my Satellite Pro A300-1DZ

  Hi all.

  I have a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ system unit, model no PSAG1E-OOFOO4EN (think they are 'o' and not '0', circle with slash through it) with WXP Pro.

  I recently contracted a virus inside and as he removed, however it is not good so I want to re - install Windows XP Home edition. I backed up the computer, I have a Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition disk and I have my product key.
  I put the CD/DVD in BIOS to run 1 drive and tells me that I can boot from the CD, I press a button and it loads the CD, select the option where to install windows.

  BUT! I can t go further than what windows does not detect the HD said he s not now, or whatever.

  My question is this: Please can someone me step by step instructions on how to reinstall XP and a link to all the drivers I need to make it work?

  PLEEASE!

  It's simple on my PC, also, please keep in mind, I am best suited for working on cars, I'm not stupid, but my calloused hands search for computers a little more difficult than Motors please not in many computer technical terms.
  I myself am the slow education in the dark arts of computers. LOL :)

  PS. the laptop has a Vista Basic sticker on it, but it is certainly the XP pro operating system. :)

  Hi jeff

  Here's your solution:
  1. go to bios with F2 when you see the toshiba start screen.
  2. Select the arrow to the left using the "Advanced".
  3 press down until you get to "SATA Controller Mode".
  4 change, using F7/F8, Chang [AHCI] setting [compatibility].
  5. make sure the CD/DVD drive is the first to start and F10 save and exit. computer restart when you are prompted to "press any key" press a button and hey presto as before windows will start the installation, but this time you won't get windows you said:

  Set up did not find Ant hard disks installed on your computer.

  Make sure any drive HARD are powered on and properly connected to your computer and any hard disk related hardware configuration is correct. This may involve running a manufacturer-supplied diagnostic or Setup program.

  implementation cannot continue press f3 to goto hell... uh I mean leaving the installation

  And you can continue on your installation of Windows XP Home edition.

  Hope I helped many other jeff's in the same boat. XD

• Re: Satellite Pro A300 - recovery disk will reinstall Windows OS on the new HARD drive

  Hard drive of my Satellite Pro A300 failed. It has now been replaced. I ordered a recovery disk.
  This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?

  Also, I get this message "BOOTMGR MISSING". The recovery disc will fix this problem too?
  Thanks in advance!

  > I ordered a recovery disk. This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?
  Yes. Without a doubt.

  New HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?
  If so avoid any problem.

  Moreover, A300 works perfectly and much better with Win7 32 bit.

• Satellite Pro A300 PSAJ1E: Touchpad not recognized using Win XP SP2

  Hi all

  I just got a Satellite Pro A300 PSAJ1E, which is preloaded with Vista. It is also comes with a 'product' XP SP2 recovery CD I had to use because of some software work with Vista compatibility issues.

  Unfortunately, everything works well except the Touchpad, which is not recognized by XP at all (without entries, error or not, in the Device Manager).
  The "Recovery" of XP CD installed the drivers of the Alps and the Toshiba Touchpad utility (for turning on and outside), so it seems that it is supposed to work.

  It is activated in the BIOS (which I have also flashed to the latest version, just in case) and is enabled in the software. I also rebuilt the laptop using the "Recovery" CD (the touchpad is not also recognized by starting on the CD "Recovery" which I guess uses WinPE).

  It does not work on Vista, so it shouldn't be a hardware problem.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Thanks in advance.

  Andy

  Hey Buddy

  Well in your case I would recommend going to the Device Manager and remove the touchpad in the list of devices.

  Then visit the European driver Toshiba page, choose your model of laptop, Win XP OS and download the driver for the Alps Electric and Synaptics touchpad.

  Install both drivers, reboot the laptop and check if your touchpad will work correctly.

  Good luck

  Hello

  As far as I know that these issues are resolved with BIOS update. Can you please tell us which model of laptop you have exactly and what BIOS version is preinstalled on your laptop?

• Satellite Pro A300 - shutdown problem

  I have a brand new Satellite Pro A300-15V, which I lowered the score of Vista professional to XP Professional, using the original recovery disk.
  Now I have problem close to the bottom of the computer. When I click on "Turn Off" it just stops and restarts after a minute or two. Also, I can't bring back from hibernation unless I stopped him on the button first.

  Can anyone help, pls?

  Hello

  I think the BIOS update should help you resolve this strange issue.

• Satellite Pro A300-28V - my bluescreens disappeared when the BIOS has been upgraded

  I'm curious to know about it. The machine is a Satellite Pro A300-28V with Vista32/Win7.
  Had problems with bluescreen dumps referring to 'iaStor.sys '. I was about to send the laptop in for repair when I made this last effort to resolve the problem. Upgrade 1.9 to 2 BIOS, 1 - Win.

  All of a sudden my system image succeeded! Even at an Iomega home network HDD. Without complex!
  No blue screen exports even at startup 'cold' (after a free night)!

  For now, I leave the computer in sleep mode while I am at work. Let's see if he managed a day without landfills.

  What is the technical difference between 1.9 and 2.1 BIOS? No idea if it's something with iaStor.sys to do?

  Hi mate

  This is really good news as your BSOD displeasured after the BIOS update.
  The BIOS give instructions to the test power - on self test (POST) and provide basic information on how to manage components of the laptop, as HDD, ODD memory, that are required to load the operating system.

  Who knows, what was changed in the update but the main thing is that all the work and the update solve your BSOD

  > No idea if she has something with iaStor.sys to do?
  iaStor.sys is part of the SATA driver who is required to recognize the HARD drive using AHCI mode.

• Error device basic system for my Satellite Pro A300

  Laptop = Satellite Pro A300
  Platform = Visa PS2

  In my device manager, I have two errors.

  Under "Other devices", mean "Base system device".
  Under the heading hardware ID, one says:

  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0592 & SUBSYS_FF1C1179 & REV_12
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0592 & SUBSYS_FF1C1179
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0592 & CC_088000
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0592 & CC_0880

  The second says:
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0843 & SUBSYS_FF1C1179 & REV_12
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0843 & SUBSYS_FF1C1179
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0843 & CC_088000
  PCI VEN_1180 & DEV_0843 & CC_0880

  I believe it has something to do with my card reader.
  Can someone direct me to the right web site, use the drivers?

  Here's a nice page:
  http://www.PCIDatabase.com/

  You can find the details of PCI devices.
  FRI means seller
  DEV: device

  FRI 1180 = Ricoh
  DEV 0592 = Ricoh Memory Stick Controller

  So the case is clear: he controller s card reader.

  I recommend reinstalling the driver.

• How to restore my Satellite Pro A300?

  I had to replace the hard drive on my laptop Satellite Pro A300. Before that, I did a complete backup of computer with Windows complete PC Backup. Now I want to restore all of the backup computer, but I have this problem:
  When the computer restarts I press F8 and select Repair my computer, and in the System Recovery Options, I click on the Windows complete PC Restore. Then, the window for the selection of available backups. When I click on the next button, I get the following message:
  «To restore your computer, Windows needs to format the drive running Windows recovery environment on.» Start your computer from a Windows or a recovery disc install disc to try again".

  I don't have a Windows installation disc. When I start my computer from the key to the rescue disk, and then press F8 in boot option advanced, I don't see you option to fix my computer.

  How to restore my computer anyone know?

  I don't know what is really happening in your computer, but it is a little difficult to restore without Windows installation disc. On another computer, you can download and install Acronis true image and activate it. Acronis, there is an option, the backup copy of Windows convert to Acronis backup. Convert you. Then, create a rescue bootable Acronis Disk support. Converted Acronis backup, you can place them on dvd disc discs or burn flash usb. Insert, Acronos boot media, navigate to the backup and restore. \

  It's a bit difficult to explain everything, but in your case, it is best to get copy of windows and do a clean install

  Hello

  Have you tried to install the driver for the touchpad?
  You can find the driver for the touchpad on Toshiba UE driver page.

  Extra tip: in some cases possible to enable and disable the touchpad in the BIOS.
  Please check this!

  By the way: is an external USB mouse attached to the laptop? If so, unplug it and try to use the touchpad
