• Satellite C850 - 19(d) - I want to do a dual boot with Linux and Win 8

  Last week I had a Satellite C85O - PSCBWE-03200WGR 19(d)

  Yesterday, I try to make a dual boot with Ubuntu.

  I do not have a start to boot from USB, or iso CD (same choices as for the Toshiba application), and I did one on the bios:
  -Disable secure boot
  -Change UEFI CSM support
  -Save

  On reboot, I get not Toshiba logo, but a black screen with:

  «This product is covered by one or more of the following patents:...» (list of patents...)

  Realtek...

  PXE - E61: Media test faliure check cable
  PXE - MOF: Exit PXE ROM
  "No boot device - insert boot and press a key.

  I can't open the Bios again at F2.

  Which I recover the system?

  Hello

  The unit has been pre-installed with Win 8 64 bit right?

  Change BIOS setting of UEFI to CSM and disabling secure boot prevent Notepad to start 8 to win!

  That's why the device cannot find the boot device and passes to the last option: LAN.
  But given that the laptop can not find bootable system via LAN, the error PXE - E61: Media test faliure check cable appears.

  If you want to use a dual boot, you will need to boot into Win 8
  Win 8 you must create a partition for installing Linux. This can be down in Win 8 disk management. It must reduce a last partition and have to create new free space available.

  Now to start installing Linux you need support... you can burn the iso on DVD or a USB bootable Linux. There are a lot of details on the internet how to create these media.
  Once you have created the bootable USB key, restart your PC with USB connected.
  Press F12 for the boot menu. Now you should see the key USB (if it is bootable!) choose USB and you should be able to install Linux (Ubuntu is great!)

  Hello

  Method 1:
  Try to disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) drives, etc...) Except the keyboard and mouse and then start.

  
  Method 2:
  I also suggest that you do the startup repair using the Windows Vista installation disc and check if it works.
  If you have a Windows Vista installation disc, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc. If you do not restart your computer from the disk, the option to repair your computer will not appear.
  a. Insert the installation disc.
  b. restart your computer.
  Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart.
  c. If prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
  Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.
  d. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
  e. click on repair your computer.
  f. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  g. in the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair

• Can I run dual boot Vista 32 and Windows 7 64? Can I use a upgrade disk to install the full version?

  original title: I have a simple question...

  I have Vista 32 bit.  I have two hard drives.  Vista 32 is on disk 0.  (C) I want to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit.  I want to change the installation path on Windows 7 64 bit edition updated the software on my second drive, so I can run a system dual boot.  Windows 7 Setup will allow me to do?  I can use the version upgrade of the software for that, or do I have the full version?

  Hello

  You can't do what you want to do

  32-bit to 64-bit is NOT a upgrade path if you have always wanted to upgrade 32 bit vista

  It must be done with a clean install with a final certificate

  and you need a full license of windows 7 to install windows 7 on the 2nd hard drive

  You can dual boot vista 32-bit and 64-bit windows 7, if the manufacturer of your computer provides windows 7 drivers

• Dual-boot for DOS and Windows 7.

  I use W7 Home Edition. 2G Ram. 500G hard drive. (tons of room left)

  I just correctly partitioned the hard drive and formatted the small partition in FAT32 so I can use BACK 6.21 as operating system.

  I'm trying to re - create the implementation that I had when I was on XP. Otherwise said, when the machine is booting, a screen appears that gave me the choice of either running in Windows XP or in the BACK. So far i cant even install BACK the machine to the three diskettes BACK 6.21 lights. The BIOS indicates the 3 1/2 "floppy drive is enabled.  The boot sequence has been defined for the floppy drive be the first start and the (No. 1, startup disk) disk is in the drive. Windows 7 boots up just as usual and totally ignores the BACK installation disc. Anyone know what I am doing wrong or that approach I should take. ?

  p.s. I have a spare hard drive I use exclusively for BACK if only I could get BACK installed on it and knew what to do at the BIOS level.

  Sometimes simple solutions are the best :) glad to know what you need to do this.

  Don't forget that starts change according to what operating system drive letters, you can even add a disc of Windows 8 and start to learn that. One of the main things to do is label the disks according to their function as this does not change even when the letters do.

  Please indicate the best answer than the answer.

• Satellite L305-S5939 - Dual boot with Linux

  I recently bought the notebook title mentioned for my studies in computer programming that will require me to dual boot with Linux.
  I decided to use Ubuntu and their instructions for upward the dual boot parameters are simple.

  However, I heard from people having problems with the settings of the BIOS on other brands when said is finished.
  Before I embark on this journey, I want to just make sure that everything is set to avoid problems.

  Unfortunately, I have not found much information about Dual boot with Linux and Toshiba L305s.
  Other than the basic principles of what I need to do before installing?

  I think that a dual boot on the Satellite L305 should not be a problem because you can do it on every laptop or PC.

  If you want Ubuntu you should take a look on Wubi
  http://wubi-Installer.org/
  It of pretty easy to use and in my opinion the best way to install Ubuntu on a system dual boot.

  Where can I still get Windows 7?

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive, but less expensive full version

  OEM System Builder version:

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

• 24 b017c: 24 - b017c dual boot with Win7 possible?

  I really need to do a system dual boot with WIN7 If Yes.  WIN10 is not be nice to some specific software Attorney that I need to have to work for a client. Win7 is the latest OS, this software is compatible with before an upgrade of expensive software can't be compatible with Win8 or higher (we're talking $1000-2000 range).

  I tried to install WIN7 on this computer after the partitioning of the disk space, and put out several settings in the bios (I had error btw), but WIN7 keeps hanging in the first screen after loading the drivers (language selection screen). Something happens where ports USB closing killing all connections to the mouse and keyboard. I have tried many changes in the bios settings and a retry of the WIN7 Installer (from an installation disc) but no dice.

  Is there a certain combination of settings that must be disabled in the bios to get the win7 Installer right or I'm screwed?

  Thanks for any help

  What an adventure!

  As you discovered, you must completely format the drive as one or the other (GPT or MBR).  You cannot format a GPT partition and the other in the MBR.

  I wonder if you had back and disabled the legacy mode, if W7 would let you install on the GPT - or partition if the disabling legacy mode would also have permitted secure boot.

  In any case, it's water under the bridge.

• Satellite U940 PSU6VA - Dual boot with Ubuntu based distributions

  _ * My specifications: * _
  * Model: * Toshiba Ultrabook (Satellite PSU6VA - 00S 002 U940)
  * Operating system: * Windows 8.1 x 64 (upgrade of Windows 8 x 64)

  I would like to set up my computer to dual boot with Windows 8.1 (x 64) and Zorin OS 9.1 (64-bit).

  ZORIN OS is a derivative of Ubuntu which maintains a binary compatibility with Ubuntu i.e. Ubuntu and Zorin use the same drivers and can run the same applications. John Damascene is more or less just Ubuntu with a different desktop environment and some additional preinstalled applications.

  So far, I know that I need to disable the QuickStart Windows 8.1. What I have to do something else (for example disable Secure Boot, CSM, etc.)?

  In addition, my Ultrabook comes with 2 hard drives: 500 GB HARD drive and a 30 GB SSD. Windows uses the HARD disk for storage and for implementing SSD caching, through technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology. Is it possible to set up John of Damascus to do so (preferably without disabling caching on Windows)?

  NOTE: I prefer to do things using graphical interfaces, rather than the CLI. I don't mind given CLI instructions; also just showed me the GUI equivalents if possible. I use the CLI if there is no alternative.

  Hello

  See my responses / comments among your questions (I took part of your message and inserted here):

  So far, I know that I need to disable the QuickStart Windows 8.1. What I have to do something else (for example disable Secure Boot, CSM, etc.)?

  Answer: If you want to dual-boot, do NOT select WSC as preventing Windows to start.
  You shouldn't have to disable startup secure either, but I can't promise that. I think that Ubuntu 14 has support for secure boot.

  In addition, my Ultrabook comes with 2 hard drives: 500 GB HARD drive and a 30 GB SSD. Windows uses the HARD disk for storage and for implementing SSD caching, through technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology. Is it possible to set up John of Damascus to do so (preferably without disabling caching on Windows)?

  Answer: No, I don't think that there is a way to use the SSD in Zorin without making it unusable for Windows.
  Suggestion - let it be.

• How to create a dual boot with Vista installed on my Satellite U400?

  Hello

  I just bought a U400 - 17 H with vista installed on the HARD drive. I would like to create a dual boot with XP Pro.

  I have only a drive HARD aleady with 2 partitions (1 for vista) + 1 for data.
  I want to cut the partition vista in two 2 pieces to install XP Pro.
  At the end I'll have 3 partitions 1 vista (65 MB), 1 xp (65 MB) and 1 data (125 MB).

  Is it easily to create a new partition ok (I guess only on vista)
  but is there a program dedicated to install another OS and create a dual boot.

  Please help me because I like many things the other way around. I'm sure it's possible, but what are the right process to have at the end of two BONES and the choice at the start of the laptop

  Thank you

  Hello!

  Create a new partition for Windows XP and install it. There is no problem.

  After that, you need to restore the Windows Vista boot loader. You can do this with EasyBCD. Install and start the program.
  Go to the tab "Add/Remove entries". You will see that there is only one option available in the bootloader of Vista at the moment. In the "Add an entry" section, replace the drive in the menu drop-down of C:\ E:\. Change Type "Windows NT / 2 k/XP / 2 k 3" and the name of "Microsoft Windows XP". Then click on 'Add an entry' and 'save '.
  Then go to the "Manage Bootloader" tab make sure "Reinstall the Vista Bootloader" is selected, then click on "write the MBR.

  Now you can restart the laptop and you should have a full system dual boot to work.

  Good bye

• Can I do a dual boot with Windows 7?

  After taking all the precautions I can think to install Windows 7 on my wifes laptop. Drive recovery system, backups (2 DVDs) and an image I did more than 6 DVD.

  I thought why not only reduce the Vista Partition, install Windows 7 in the created partition and run Windows 7 to see if it will work on the laptop (gives me time to straighten out things so that my wife can always use). Then remove the Vista Partition. If the laptop was mine would just reformat the dang thing and deal with what it goes down from there.

  Then there is the Question of what to do about the EISA (recovery Partition)?

  Hello!

  Of course, you can install Windows 7 and do a system to dual-boot with Windows Vista... Why not? ;)

  As you have already said if Windows 7 works well on your laptop (I put t know which model you have exactly) you can remove Vista and use the old partition to store data or to include a new in the Windows 7 partition.

  The hidden partition do you mean isn't the Toshiba recovery partition! It is a feature of Windows.
  You can remove this partition you don t he most needs.

  In addition, with the Toshiba Recovery disk, you are on the safe side. If you don't want Windows 7 you can go to Vista (factory settings). :)

  Good bye
