Satellite Pro L510 - how to install XP?

What should I do to install Windows XP on my Satellite L510?

Hope you can help me. Thank you.

Hey,.

Theoretically, it is very easy to install XP: take a Windows XP disk, insert into Notepad and boot from it. Follow the instructions on the screen and that s all!

But the problem is I think you n t get drivers for Satellite L510. Windows XP is the past and old, now it s Windows 7. Then you should be happy with your preinstalled operating system (also Vista).

If you want XP you can install it, but you have to collect the drivers yourself on external sites, such as Intel, Realtek, and far.
Good luck!

If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - how to install XP next to Vista?

    Hello world
    could you please tell me if there is a standard way to install a new copy of "WIN XP" next to the pre-installed "Vista Business", recovery usig disks included in the packaging of product or using a standalone installation CD?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    As far as I know the XP disc that comes with the laptop you can t make a system dual-boot. It s only one disk to downgrade from Vista to XP.
    You can try to post your score, but it s on your own risk.

    In the worst case, you will need to use a Windows XP that you can buy in a computer store or somewhere else. Then it s definitely not a problem to make a dual system boot between XP and Vista.
    I have my laptop Toshiba system dual boot with XP and Vista and it works well! :)

  • How restore Satellite Pro L510?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L510, I bought in February 2011, in Australia.
    I had no problems with it up until I tried to run a wifi usb modem with Vodafone. It worked fine for a few months until a couple of weeks. It's the connection but not to open the pages. I've been to the Vodafone store and they have run tests and told me it's nothing wrong with the modem, but with the computer. They said that I need to restore? or get back them?

    I have no idea how to do this... I did a backup via the "maintenance" menu system And then I did a restore via the advanced restore options, but he did nothing. Exactly, he went back to what he was doing before.
    Is there another way to clean the computer?

    Thanks in advance!

    > They said I need to restore? or get back them?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro L510 (P / N:PSLFML - 002004). Recently, I upgraded my Intel WIFI Link 5100 (my original WLAN is Realtek RTL8191SE). I tried Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit with intel driver, version 13.4 and 13.5, non of them worked so far. I always get this error 'this device cannot start' in Device Manager

    Can someone help me with this problem please?

    Duy

    Hello

    May I ask why you switched the WLAN card? Something was wrong with your old WLAN or why you did that?

    The WLAN feature was working before the upgrade?

    I can say with certainty why you get this message error, but to me it seems that the WLAN card is not activated, you permit wireless network adapter using the FN + F8 key combination?

  • Can I upgrade to Windows 7 on Satellite Pro L510

    Hello. I recently bought a Satellite Pro L510.

    It came with a program to upgrade Windows 7 with PSLFFL-002002 part number, which shows that they are eligible for the upgrade of windows to windows 7.

    However, when my windows 7 cd came and when I tried to install it, there was a notice saying that my model is not eligible to upgrade to windows 7. When I referred to the given site 'http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows7/mlist_sp.htm' I noticed the L510 Satellite Pro series is not found in the list.

    Later, I called the center of Contact from Toshiba for re - confirm whether or not L510 pro series can be upgraded to win 7, and the person told me to reformat my laptop to factory settings. He said that I should refer to 'http://pc.toshiba-asia.com/portal/public/win7/specs.jsp?model=proL510' instead in regards to laptops for the upgrade of windows.

    However before I reformat my laptop I clarify / re - confirm L510 Satellite Pro can be upgraded to win 7. I don't want to reformat my laptop for nothing.

    Hope someone could help me.

    Thank you.

    I don't know how it works in Asia or with Asian laptops but the fact is that all new laptops are designed for Win7 and I see no single reason for your laptop are not upgradeable to Win7.

    Asian laptop models are not known to me, but I did not understand in your ad which OS came preinstalled as factory condition. Your laptop came with Vista pre-installed and you have upgrade you DVD Win7 or what?

    AFAIK preinstalled Vista can be improved using Win7 upgrade DVD and after upgrade you must not activate it. It will be automatically activated.

    So please be so kind and explain to us exactly what you want to do and how you want to do.

  • Satellite Pro L510 - crashes and blue screen

    Hello
    I am a new user of the Toshiba Satellite Pro L510, since last September, barely 3 months.
    Recently, had met 2 crashes (2nd is today s). As it happened today, there are blue screen that appears, which included messages like 'crash', 'written' physical memory... etc.

    In addition to send it for repair for this new laptop, I don't know what is the best way to manage this accident and what might be the best way to prevent this accident.

    Recently I installed programs such as Microsoft SQL Server 2008, anti-virus program (Sophos), which I think are necessary (the first was for my studies as well).

    Would appreciate any pointers to advise me if these could be the causes of the accident, and that I have to do to keep the better laptop or y at - it any generic deficiency maybe I should take notes.

    Thanks in advance for any advice for this laptop.
    Kind regards

    Hey,.

    First of all, I must say it is very difficult to say whether this problem is software or hardware related, but in most cases these accidents are caused by software or drivers...

    I put t know how many programs you have installed, what OS you use and if there are compatibility problems, but you can test it yourself: Toshiba start recovery disc recovery facility. After that, you have the same settings that you have purchased.

    You should examine it a little these parameters. If everything is ok, it was just a problem software or driver. ;)

    Please check your device and restart the application or your computer. »
    I then spent countless times, trying to find the problem, and I conclluded to the device itself, while the microphone works very well (which I thought was an attachment with the webcam).

    This confuses me for many reasons.

    Why was my camera works perfectly and then one day my computer can not recognize it? What has gone wrong?
    How should I do?

    Useful suggestions, answers or any reccomendations would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    It is not easy to say what the problem is there but what you can try is to remove the Camera Assistant software system and after restarting the laptop installed the last driver of the webcam, you can find for your laptop model on the Toshiba download page

    According to this statement you must have installed Windows XP SP3 home edition.

    Your ad is a bit confusing to me. You have a problem with the functionality of DVD - RAM or optical disc drive cannot read all drives (different CD, DVD, DVD - R formats. DVD + R and so on)?

    I put t know what is the problem with the optical disc drive, but way generally, an installation of software packages has nothing to do with ODD when you use it as first boot device.
    > I can not even restart my operating system discs cannot be read from the BIOS either.
    Restart or reinstall?
