• Upgrade Vista to Windows 7, files using the second internal hard drive and Windows Easy Transfer.

  I have a desktop pc with 2 internal hard drives.  A hard drive has the BONE and the second hard disk is a separate partition.  (I do not combine hard drives using RAID.)  If I upgrade Vista to Windows 7, the upgrade will be to reformat hard disks or just a hard drive with the operating system?  Should I remove the second hard disk of the computer just to be sure?  The second hard drive must be reformatted for use with Windows 7?

  Thank you.

  You must install the upgrade in the Vista operating system.

• Trouble with the new internal hard drive...

  Hello, I just bought a 500 GB for my Dimension 4500 internal hard drive. When I click on my computer, it says the hard disk capacity is only 127 concerts. I think it's because the motherboard is old (I got the 4500 in 2002). Is it possible to reach the full 500 concerts (465-formatted) using this motherboard (i.e. through a BIOS upgrade or something) or 127 is the max I can get with this system?

  If I need a BIOS upgrade, where can I get TI/how I do that?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

• Satellite A500 - is there a model with the 2nd internal HARD drive?

  Is there a model A500 with 2 internal drives?

  Hello!

  You can check it on the Toshiba site in the specifications of the laptop if it s equipped ;) 2nd HARD drive

  But I checked the Toshiba Web site for you, and it seems that Satellite A500 isn't equipped with the 2nd HARD drive.
  If you want a 2nd HARD drive therefore use an external that you can connect via for example fast eSATA port.

  Good bye

• Re: How can I add a second internal hard drive to a Satellite Pro P200?

  I have a Satellite Pro P200 with a single internal hard drive. There is a second Bay in the computer of another internal hard drive, but I couldn't find any information about it. There is enough space for a 2.5 "SATA but I do not see a connector.

  I contacted Toshiba Dutch customer service who said that it was official policy not to provide any information on a second internal drive. They also said that they would not provide parts to make it possible.

  Can anyone provide more information?

  Hello!

  I think that if there is no connector you cannot add a second HDD.
  It of Nice to have a second Bay, but it's nothing without a connector.

• Satellite Pro P200: Sometimes screen loses her colours

  I have a Satellite Pro P200 running the operating system Vista Business and at random times the losses of its color screen almost as if it passes at a lower resolution of color.

  There is a bit of flickering of screen.
  To get the screen back to normal, I have to put it in Sleep Mode and wake again.
  There is no consistency when it does for example when a certain application opens or how much time it happens.

  Does anyone else have this experience and nobody knows how to fix?

  Thank you

  HM strange s.
  My first thought was that this problem could be related to a hardware malfunction

  But first, you should check if an update of the graphics driver would improve display quality.

  Also, check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS.

• HP dv6 envy: want to know on the best internal hard drive to replace it with

  Hi friends... I return my hp dv6 want 3 years and it has worked well for me so far, but since last month, everytime I turn on my laptop, a message is popping indicating that YOUR HARD DISK has FOUND YEAR IMMINENT FAILURE AND there NEED TO BE REPLACED and I studied a lot of posts here regarding this problem and everyone was asked to replace it with a new one. I don't know what drive should I replace it with. Could someone please help me in this regard. I need the following details:

  1. where can I find new internal hard drive HP ENVY DV6 1 to buy?

  2. can we replace this hard drive with the hard drive to other companies? (such as seaggate)... If so, so, please let me know

  3. can I replace the hard drive with a hard drive of 1 to solid state?

  4. links to vendors who sell internal hard drive?

  Please help me friends...

  The answer is Yes in all areas. The laptop will accept any 2.5 inch wide disk SATA 9.5 or 7 mm thick and which includes mechanical hard drives and Solid State drives. Where are you located (one country)? Hard drives and SSDS for laptops are a part of the goods. You can pick them up at a Best Buy or Frys if you live where there are no Frys or you can use amazon.com or newegg.com or similar online service. The prices vary a lot, so it is useful to get a good deal. A 1 to SSD can run more than $300, you know. Need instructions for installing and/or migrating software? We are a bit like McDonalds here in the Forum... served billion regarding replace drive hard/updates to level. One of the specialties of the House, so to speak.

• Satellite Pro 4600: sometimes applications stop running with the new RAM

  Hi all

  I was wondering if anyone out there can shed some light on my problem. I've recently upgraded for an extra 256 MB on my Satellite Pro 4600. The laptop showed the increase in RAM. Since the installation, for some reason any after running for awhile applications (this varies between 10 minutes to a few hours like laptop start up), applications stop running. I can not open new applications. When I restart, I can run the applications in my laptop as usual again.

  I received my offtek RAM. Manufacturer part number is the same as specified in the manual of my laptop.

  Please someone has an idea?

  Hello

  Please check the number of PA of the 256 MB chip, the number of PA is properly PA3005U - 1 M 12.

• Satellite Pro L300 1AD is unable to install the Windows XP display driver

  I just installed XP on my Satellite pro because my internet modem doesn't work with Vista.

  I went to the main site of Toshiba to install display drivers, but they moved it, it keeps bringing the message "this driver is not for this computer please contact manufacturer.

  I put t understand why because all the other drivers that I downloaded on the same work, it's just the display one page. Does anyone know what's wrong?

  You have downloaded the latest driver for Satellite Pro L300?
  On the Toshiba site it s version 6.14.10.4953.

  An alternative, you can try the drivers from Intel, but normally the Toshiba driver should work.
  I always use the driver from Toshiba and never had any problems.

  Furthermore, I looked on the Toshiba site:

• Satellite Pro M30, it is recommended to install the new nVIDIA display driver?

  I tried to install this new driver on my laptop (after removing the old driver following the instructions by nVIDIA) but it does not install. Does anyone have an idea why?

  Why the new driver is not displayed on the Toshiba support site driver for this laptop?

  All drivers are designed and tested to laptops and Tom is right about producer for laptop. This means that you can find the download page for all drivers needed on Toshiba.

  As much I know Toshiba supports the drivers shipped with the device drivers and updates if necessary.

• Satellite L50 - A-1 DG - with the new SSD HARD drive replacement

  Satellite L50 - A - 1 DG

  I would put my SSD in the PC and install win7 on it. But it does not work.

  I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  I tried to replace the SSD hard drive. Then the pc cannot start up. And I can't get into the bios or adjustment.

  Someone knows what's the problem?

  > I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  This does not work with all models of laptops.
  As far as I know that the laptop must support Slim Select Bay and the BIOS should also support this hardware option. But in your case, it doesn t.

  One possible solution is the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk.

  You said that you are not able to access the BIOS after these updates.
  Well, before you do this (a SSD drive connection) you should access the BIOS and must disable secure boot and must set the start mode MSC mode.

  The comments appreciated.

  How to get Vista recovery Media to back to factory settings.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Satellite 2800-200; is it possible to upgrade the memory and HARD drive capacity

  Hi all

  my computer is a Toshiba Satellite S2800-200 (old) and I wont to ask if it is possible to upgrade memory capacity and disk.

  Thank you

  Of course you can upgrade these laptop parts.
  The laptop seems to be equipped with an internal memory which is not removable.

  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=7168&ft=m&St=3
  According to the website above, you can use only one memory for an upgrade slot.
  You can use the 144-Pin PC100 SODIMM 128 MB module. It's max.

  I m not 100% sure on the HARD drive, but as I m not trunk not the laptop came with 10 GB HARD drive. Generally, a 20 GB HARD drive should be possible.

  Good bye

• Vista does not recognize the 640 GB hard drive

  How can I get Windows Vista to recognize my Western Digital 640 GB with 640 GB hard drives instead of 596?

  Sorry to tell you that everything you have * is * acknowledged. Although
  you think you have a 640 GB drive, you actually have a 596 GB disk.
   
  All drive manufacturers qualify hard 1 GB 1 000 000 000 bytes, while
  the rest of the computer, including the windows world, defines it as 2 to
  the 30th power bytes (1 073 741 824). So is a disk of 640 billion bytes
  actually about 596 GB.
   
  To some people pointed out that the official international standard defines
  the 'G' of GB as 1 billion, not 1 073 741 824. Correct if they
  are, using the binary value of GB is so well established in the
  World of computing that I consider using the decimal value of 1 billion of
  be misleading marketing.
