Satellite Pro L670-16Z - XP installation after using Windows 7?

Regards to all forums. I'm new here.

Next week I should get a new pc, * Satellite Pro L670-16Z *. I have a few questions.

* 1. * If, during some weeks, use my computer with Windows 7, after that I can downgrade to Windows XP?

* 2 if I downgrade to XP, you can reinstall Windows 7 new?
Thank you for the replay.

If you want to reinstall Windows 7, you must first create the recovery disk. There should be an icon on the desktop. Use good quality DVD discs since those of poor quality can cause errors during recovery.

To install XP, you buy XP in a store (which may be difficult).

You can run XP in Windows 7 Professional or higher using a Virtual Machine.

    Hello

    I put t have it, but best friend of my girlfriend had it and I installed and configured this machine so I got it in my hands and I must say that the keyboard is OK, and I didn't notice anything unusual.

    Also, talk with your local dealer to return option. In my country I have 14 days to return the product if I don't like it. Maybe you have the same option in your country. Check it out.

    In any case, I must also say that the Satellite Pro L670 is good laptop for all activities of the day. Nice design, very good material and enough power/performance. With other words: nice piece of hardware for the money.

  • Satellite Pro L670-18F - pilots missing after updating BIOS

    I have a Satellite Pro L670-18F and I recently updated the BIOS to version 1.5, recommended by the site, but now my internet speed is VERY slow and I have some devices in the Device Manager without drivers related to the bios (from Googling) and so I realized that the bios has been a problem.

    Does anyone know this laptop came with to downgrade the BIOS version? Also, if I reinstall windows will I receive a new bios version or will it would not affected?

    Hey,.

    Did you download and install the correct version of the BIOS of your laptop? Satellite Pro L670-18F belongs to the series of PSK3FE AFAIK, so have you chosen BIOS for this series of model?

    In addition I recommend you load the default settings in the BIOS. Just press F9 key if you are in the BIOS Setup.

    If you reinstall Windows, the BIOS will not be affected. BIOS and Windows are different, you will always have the latest version of the even you change your operating system.

  • Satellite Pro L670-16Z and WinXP - keyboard Fn + F8 does not work

    Any idea? Thank you

    Hey,.

    Have you tested other combination of FN keys or only FN + F8 does not work?

    If only the WLAN power switch doesn t work it could be linked to the WLAN driver is the WLAN card in Device Manager correctly or you see a yellow exclamation point?

  • Satellite Pro L670 - 18F PSK3FE Webcam works become "unknown device".

    The * webcam * on my * Satellite Pro L670 - 18F PSK3FE * who is running * Windows 7 64 - Bit * a well worked until this week. My notifications bar started to say * "unknown USB device" * and when when I went to use the webcam it no longer worked.

    When I disabled the webcam in the BIOS the notification has stopped, but when I turned it on the notification came back again to the top. The unknown device is clearly the webcam.

    I updated my BIOS and tried the system restore.

    I also downloaded the driver for the webcam of http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK and have tried running that - + but it NEVER seems to complete the installation. + I have will continue to try to reload the driver and see if that helps, but from now on, I do not think that the pilot will help.

    If it is just a driver problem, someone could suggest how to get the driver to install really :-(

    I am now at a loss. I'm not sure what to do now. Suggestions?... + Please! +

    Hello

    Unknown device means that the driver is not installed.
    I think that the installation of the webcam driver should fix it.

    As face recognition also use the webcam, I recommend you to uninstall this tool as well as the older version of the software of the webcam.
    Both (or just face recognition) should appear in Control Panel-> software

    Now download both applications to the driver page.
    Start with the installation of the webcam driver:
    (1) unpack the webcam driver package

    (2) the TC30049700N.exe may also be decompressed (right click-> extract here)

    (3) now you should see different files exe, dll, and others attempt to run setup.exe to start the installation. If this does not work, go to Device Manager, mark (webcam) unknown USB device and install the driver pointing to the folder that contains the files of webcam driver. The system should automatically recover dll files.

    (4) restart the laptop and follow with face recognition software.

    Good luck

  • New Satellite Pro L670 - 14 M turns on if the charger is plugged?

    Hi all

    New to the forum so grateful for any help on this matter.

    I bought a brand new laptop Satellite Pro L670 - 14 M last week. Now it works fine up until today. The last time that I used it while just running the battery was Monday night. I was working on the laptop, send email etc. today, and I decided to change rooms. For some reason, I still have to discover that I disconnected the charger from the wall (instead of simply unplug the charger from the laptop) so that it was plugged into the laptop and the laptop just turned off much to my shock. It was sparking that I saw the decision-making that I removed the CAP, but now the laptop lights not unless supply current is connected. If I unplug the charger, the computer does not illuminate.

    Now, my first thought is I (crossed beams) killed the battery, but the strange thing is, when the laptop is plugged in and turned on and I'm on my screen and I click on the battery icon in the taskbar it States 94% available (plugged in, load)

    While I wait for some answers I hope I shut down the laptop and leave the charger plugged in to see if the battery has loaded more than 94%

    Hello

    I think that the BIOS update would be worth a try in your case. Take a look at the Toshiba driver download page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    But before you start the update: make sure that you are logged on as administrator and close all running programs. Unzip all files from zip archive first.
    After update successful BIOS load default settings in the BIOS.

    Are you using the original Toshiba battery and AC adapter or they are 3rd parties gone?

  • Vista drivers for new Satellite Pro L670 - 14L

    So I have been serching for a laptop of decent game and found: Toshiba Satellite Pro L670 - 14L to be a good combination power/price
    but after reading some reviews, I discovered that many people's complaint that the toshiba drivers are not updated.
    that seems to be true because the latest drivers for my P300 with 4500 m are 2008!

    So, I checked for L670 Vista display drivers and did not find one! Even for Win7 do not seem old already,
    is that mean Toshiba is not compatible Vista more? I have to use windows 7 only?

    I can see in the specifications of the laptop your laptop came with WIN7 64 BITS HOME PREMIUM.
    Can you confirm this?

    Why are you asking about the Vista drivers if you got the new OS to Win7. You want to use Vista or what?
    I want to say Win7 is much better than old Vista OS so I put t understand what you exactly want. To use Vista or you ask here for more recent WIn7 display driver?

  • Satellite Pro L670 - 11 d and Dynadock U10 problem re-docking station

    This my first post on this forum - I hope I have the right category.

    We have a user with a Satellite Pro L670 - 11 d attached to a port replicator Dynadock U10 USB.

    Everything seems fine, except when press us the disconnect button (or select eject Dock) the laptop leaves the great.
    However when we try to anchor (for example after a meeting of bureau) it does not recognize the usb connection and docking station won't. We usually have to restart at this point. We are attentive to reconnect to the same usb port.

    Has anyone seen this problem and know a fix?

    Thank you

    David

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem only under this Dynadock U10 or perhaps with the external USB HDD too?
    In my opinion, it sounds a bit like the issue of the BONE and not like the Dynadock question.

    I would recommend this control by using a USB HDD.
    Connect the USB HDD to the USB port as well.
    Then, disconnect the USB HDD and unplug the laptop HARD drive. Reconnect the HARD drive and check if the HARD drive would be connected again.
    If the same thing would happen with HARD drive, you should check the USB port
    Maybe the chipset driver will need to be updated

    But if the HARD drive is raccorderaient ok and if the question does not seem to be using the HARD drive, then, it would be necessary to check the Dynadock maybe reinstall the Dynadock from the software again.

  • Satellite Pro L670 - size of the Excessive recovery partition

    Hello

    New to this forum I have just bought a new laptop of Toshiba Satellite Pro L670, is great so far, but I have a question I'd like to solve.

    It has a 500 GB hard drive, which will be more than enough for some time yet, but I'm not satisfied with the way it is partitioned, usable space is divided into 232 C: and 232 GB D: that has the data folder HDDRecovery on it. Now, I know that I can still use the partiition for data, but I prefer to keep all my files in one place and the usual locations of Windows on the C: drive.

    What is the best way to recover all my hard drive space, Windows allows me to shrink the D. partition, but cannot extend the C: partition into free space created as the recovery folder is in the way. Thought copy output folder then recreate a smaller partiiton D: but he did not like me trying to move the folder either!

    ID of burn recovery DVDs can I safely delete the D: partition? I prefer to keep the disk but with a bigger drive C: is the highest priority!

    Congratulations to all

    Steve

    Hi scoobasteve,

    > What is the best way to recover all my hard drive space
    There is no better way. There are many options for the creation of new partitions because some people prefer a single partition, other people using a lot of partitions.

    Don t worry folder HDDrecovery!

    For example, I installed all my programs/games on the first partition C: where I installed Windows as well. This partition uses 50% of HARD drive space.
    Then I have a second partition D: with HARD drive recovery record. He s using the other 50% and on that, I've stored my files like photos, videos, music, documents, etc. No program, but all other files.

    In my opinion that s ok because I have to run HARD drive recovery, only the C: partition is removed. My important files are still on the D: partition after recovery of HARD drive. In addition, each week, I create a backup of all files on D: partition wait folder of HARD disk recovery. That's why I use Acronis True Image, it records the image on an external DRIVE connected via USB drive.

    Then why delete disk HARD recovery file?
    Of course, you can remove it but create the before recovery disk! After you delete the folder, you are not able to do this more!

  • Satellite Pro L670 - 14 p - stops down, often

    Hello

    My son has an i5 - 430 Pro L670 - 14 p Dual Core running Windows 7 64-bit, which is less than 6 months old. He plays World of Warcraft for several hours at a time and found that the laptop stops after maybe an hour of constant game.

    We bought him this model because we assumed that he could handle him being on various games for hours. Is this a problem with the laptop or should we just tell him to go easier on this subject? Otherwise, if it is quite normal for this model, is there something we can do to upgrade the fan, assuming that it stops overheating cause? When he left he turned off for an hour it can then restart it and start the game again, but the same thing will happen again after some time.

    Thanks, Ric

    Hello

    I imagine your son uses the laptop often enough if he's a player of World of Warcraft ;) so according to me, there is a lot of dust in the cooling modules. This means that you must clean the laptop using jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fan. It is very easy and only takes 5 minutes, because it s not necessary to disassemble the laptop.
