Satellite Pro P200: Cannot install Server 2003 - parity memory error

I have a Satellite Pro P200 and to the work required to install Windows 2003 server on it, but all I get is an error message:

-Hardware malfunction

Call your provider of support material

NMI: Parity check / memory parity error

-The system is shut down

I checked the memory and everything seems OK. Vista runs very well on it, and all memory is recognized. I tried different flavors of Server 2003, although all I need is standard edition. Anyone who has met this problem, or someone has any suspicion as to how I can get it operational.

So, how tested the RAM? With Memtest? Or Prime95?

I read in many forums that people work servers (no laptop...) SERVERS) that correctly work 1 year with ECC memory, then windows 2003 server gives the same error message you have.

I mean if Vista works flawlessly and you checked as you say the RAM while there could be a mismatch which must not be for lack of toshibas.
Maybe you should try a linux ubuntu server edition, which works great on almost * ALL * systems, even on systems with faulty CPU/memory (Ok, ok, not 100%, but it works, I got this case :))

So, maybe you can try to exchange the RAM, but if you're still the same error then ask microsoft or try another P200, if they are available.

Sorry dude, but I Don t have a lot of ideas in your situation :/

Welcome them

  • Satellite Pro A120 - cannot install recovery disc

    Hi - I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 PSAC1E-04H00VEN model number

    It was less his hard drive and I posted previously to try a 160 GB drive without success. I thought that the drive may be defective, so I have now acquired a 120 GB drive. It is not new, but assured me that it works. However, it does not work in this laptop! As before (with the disk 160), when I try to install it using the Toshiba restore disc, the operation just sticks on the "Please wait..." message. "for 30 minutes then the machine shuts down. Assuming that the hard drive is ok there at - it something more, that I can do to determine the problem with this laptop?

    FYI, this is what happens after installing the hard drive:
    I turn it on and get this message: NTLDR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart.
    I insert the product recovery disc, put off and then again when you press F12.
    I get a soft Purring over the Toshiba logo. I select the CD/DVD symbol and get a short message saying: the installer inspects the hardware configuration of your computer.
    I then get RAMDISK image loading... which takes less than 2 minutes.
    I then get a short message saying: from Windows Preinstallation Environment. Press F6 if you need to install a third-party RAID or SCSI driver...
    I then get it please wait... and after 10 seconds, the fan goes into overdrive! This Carry on during 30 minutes with him please wait... message, then the laptop turns off automatically.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Thank you.

    Hi Lapitup,

    Before you buy another HARD drive, you need to test a different installation disk you have already tried the two hard disks with the same problem so I think that the problem is not HARD drive itself

    If you have a normal installation disc of Windows, you can install Windows on this drive. So you can check if the recovery disk works properly or not. Theoretically, the disc could be wiped off so that the files cannot be read properly.

    In the worst cases, some of the material is affected. Then, you need professional help of an authorized service provider.

  • Satellite Pro L300D: Cannot install because of the common Modules control utility

    Hi guys,.

    I'm new to this forum, but I spent two days looking around.
    I have a sat Pro L300D that I'm downgrading to XP, because many are, and I can't get the touchpad to work or function buttons.

    One problem seems to be to install the utility 'controls', which gives the message "common modules" not installed even though it was the first pilot, I have installed.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    OK, here we go.
    Toshiba pilot European page doesn't provide drivers XP ALL, tools or utilities for the Satellite Pro L300D.
    Is this good? I checked the page and there are no. XP applications.

    So I came to the conclusion that the common Modules cannot be installed because this software was not designed for this series of portable and therefore, you receive this error message.
    It is clear!

    So Don t wonder what impossible to install "utility controls" or common modules. These pieces of software are not compatible

  • Satellite Pro U400 - cannot install VAP on Vista 64-bit

    Hello
    Since I bought 4GB of RAM for my Satellite Pro U400 PSU45E, I installed vista Business 64-bit, with all drivers and bios 64 bit found on the toshiba site.
    easy, with the exception of the "value added package 1.1.19", whenever I try to install I get: error "failure of GetProfString."

    I installed every driver and utility for 64-bit, but still the same...
    Everyone has experienced with this?

    Without VAP, I can't use the Toshiba power saver, worst profiles I can't go back because I did a new install and deleted the recovery partition!
    Please, someone help!

    Hello

    VAP contains all the modules necessary and you n t need to install other tools in order to install VAP
    I think that it s a Vista may issue you should do a clean install, then you must update the Vista for the last State.
    After have installed all the patches Vista, try to install VAP and other tools.

    Good bye

  • Satellite Pro L20 - cannot install Windows XP

    Hello!

    I discovered this great forum and wanted to try my luck with the following problem. Any help at all is greatly appreciated!

    I do a clean install of Windows XP on my Toshiba Satellite Pro LP20. I don't have the original Windows XP cd that came with the computer, but have you tried many (legitimate) copies of Windows XP with the same result:

    The first step of the installation works fine, IE. files are copied from the CD to the hard drive and the computer restarts once the process is complete. However, during the restart to calculate, is wrong on the second phase of the facility (where continues the installation of windows XP graphic), but goes back to the DOS file copy process. This means, even if the files have been successfully copied from the CD to the hard drive, the computer does not recognize that there is a current operating system.

    The problem is not in the boot order, like the HARD drive is my number 1 option, and tried without the installation Cd in the drive. In this case the computer says only: "no operating system found".

    Where is the problem? Is this a problem of motherboard BIOS, or do you recon that the HARD disk is somehow broken? I know that the problem is not in the XP installation CD, because it works fine on other computers.

    Thank you!

    It's not easy to say what is the problem and what are the causes of the problem.
    You can try another drive to install Microsoft?

    In my opinion, it could be a problem with the HARD drive. Then you should check this with the Drive Fitness Test.
    Google for this test, it of quite easy to use.

    Hi Peter,.

    Try you to an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If Yes, please try a new and clean Windows 7 installation. It work?

    Another question: your CD/DVD drive works properly or it appears with a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager?
    In your case, I would try to remove the drive from Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After that the drive will be recognized automatically.
