Toshiba Satellite S855D - Wi - FI in the VM (Windows 8)

How about this, if it's even feasible.

I just got the S855D Satellite. My first order of the day was in the Recycle Bin of Windows 8, which, fortunately, I was able to in a unique way, having shot and recorded the HDD of 750 GB original and its replacement by a 480 GB SSHD. If the laptop is really jazze - nice size SSHD for $300. but it's really more to the point. So I Win 7 running successfully - everything 100%. I have installed VMWare one put in place a Windows 8 VM(It's OK for a VM, but I don't want to really USE it for my main O/S!)

But virtualization seems to be passed between the o/s and the physical machine - I can not access the WIFI of the Windows 8 VM. Tried various Toshiba and nothing helps Intel drivers. Any suggestions?

Also - I tried to implement a virtual machine from the recovery media, and it took, but wouldn't start. The BIOS of the virtual machine doesn't seem to have the choice of starting, the Satellite - "UEFI" or "CSM" - is there a way I might be able to get this scenario to work?

And, while there, might as well post a THIRD question - I tried the physical machine virtualization, but he does not see the Toshiba with the original hard drive Windows 8, even thoough, it appears on the network. All of the suggestions here, too?

Thank you very much!

If you want Wi - Fi directly under Windows 8 in the Virtual Machine itself, then you must provide your own USB WiFi network adapter and connect directly the the VM in VMware present only wired Ethernet to the guests.  (Take a look on, VM features and specifications.)  Also you can not attach network Wi - Fi adapter built-in host to the virtual machine while the virtual network adapter can be bound directly to him in the editor of virtual network by disabling automatic bypass and select on Ethernet cable the host if both are active.

Otherwise in regards to the networking going you must read Chapter 5 "Configuring network connections" in using VMware Workstation (PDF) in order to have a better understanding of the Infrastructure virtual VMware.

Also take a look at: Presentation of products types networks hosted (1006480)

In regards to the OEM installation in a virtual machine, it is Imaging do not allow for its EULA and you will need to purchase a retail copy or a copy OEM integrators of system and make use of the personal use license.  Also several versions OEM check that it is running on OEM hardware and Virtual Machine hardware will not match the Toshiba Satellite S855D OEM hardware and that's why restore the recovery for a virtual machine Image/disc fails!

  • Toshiba Satellite M60-154: what is the best way for a long service life of a battery?

    Hello Toshiba-users,

    I bought the "Toshiba Satellite M60-154" but I want to use most of the time on the AC adapter.

    I read the manual, but they say nothing about the battery life for people like me who will use the computer power adapter laptop most of the time.

    I would like to know if:

    (1) it is best put the battery inside when I use the laptop on the power adapter for a long time (they say this is not good for the life of the battery when it is fully charged and when he is still in charge...)

    (2) it is best to take the battery when when I use the laptop on the power adapter for a long time and check the battery every week for example to see whether or not it is still loaded (they say it's good for the life of the battery when the battery is fresh off once a week)

    Indeed, what should I do to make sure that the battery will have a long life, knowing that I always use the laptop on the power adapter instead.

    Thanks for the tips

    [Edited by: admin on 28-Sep-05 17:28]

    Hello

    your info is just. Only put the battery in the laptop, if you want to load or work without mains, to make sure that your battery has a long service life relative.

  • Toshiba Satellite 5200 - how to open the case?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba portable computer Satellite 5200 903.
    Here's my problem:

    My laptop is getting very hot, even it is idling. This is because the cooler got very dirty over time. And if the case/CPU-fan runs all the time, but no air comes out there.
    Now, I would open the case and clean the cooler. But for some reason, it is not possible. I removed all the screws in the back, in the Bay of battery and the hard drive Bay, but it's not working. So I think there must be some other screws, maybe next to the powerbutton on the top under a blanket. But I don't know how to remove this cover, without breaking.
    Or maybe I'm totally wrong and missed something else.
    I hope someone can help me.

    And sorry for my bad English.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    in my expierence the screws on each NB arranged differently and I would disadvice you open the NB to yours!

    In my opinion, it will be the best way to the NB to a Toshiba Service partner. They have the kowledge how to open each specific model and change the FAN!

    This will cost money, but you can be sure that it works after the check-up!

    You can find the following Service partner

  • My Toshiba Satellite will NOT connect to the WiFi in my house of employers, but connects everywhere else I will!

    My Toshiba Satellite WILL NOT connect to WiFi in my house of employers, but connects everywhere else I go; I have Windows XP Home Edition SP3, and there a router Linksys WRT16ON. My network card is an Atheros AR5001X + Wireless Network Adapter (and says "this device is working properly". I tried disabling, entering all information, penetrates is not in the news was unchecking the "Enable IEEE 802. 1 x authentication"(and whenever I go in there, he checked again) changed on 'Open' and 'AES' TKIP, WPA (which is) and the password is correct, restart the router, moved the laptop around (the router was in my room, now it is in the thnxt room and it Me REPEAT JUST : 'Validation of identity' and 'impossible to find a certificate to connect to the network'.) I can connect with ethernet, but not with this new situation of the House, do I have the wireless. WHAT ME MISS? I did this for weeks and even now, it says I'm connected, the signal strength is very good, often great, but Explorer cannot display this webpage. Can someone tell me what to do? Thank you!  Allie

    Your old Toshiba equipped with an adapter wireless which is likely to be used for Wireless-a, b, wireless and wireless-g (the project).   Your employer has a newer version (not the last and larger, but much more recent than your equipment) router Linksys that is capable of wireless-b, wireless-g and wireless - n.

    Your most likely problem is that your employer has set up his router to "N-only.  Wireless n uses the same radio frequency as wireless-g (this is why detect you the "excellent" signal strength), but uses a different protocol (this is why you can't connect).

    Politely ask your employer to change the mode 'network' from the back of the default router of "mixed".

    The router manual is here: http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT160N see p. 13 ' Basic Wireless Settings.

    Looking for a certificate message was probably bound to have the box 802.11 x checked.  This box should NOT be checked for home wireless networks.

  • Toshiba satellite which is stuck in the installation of service Pack 1. I have service pack 2, can not fix with this cd, can I install service Pack 2 on it without loss of data or files?

    I have the laptop (Toshiba satellite) friend who's stuck in the installation of the service Pack 1.  I have service pack 2 and am wondering, since I can't fix with this cd, can I install service Pack 2 on it without loss of data or files?

    PC claims service pack1 cd with file asms

    When you use service pack 2 cd can not load product catalogues, it is fatal error, the Setup logs files should contain more information.

    Why not integrate Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3 on her XP CD by following the instructions here (using another PC):

    http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/software-OS/w/microsoft_os/1443.aspx
    Copy all data on an external hard drive, do a clean install using the XP CD updated (preferably on the BIOs)
    Then, install the drivers from the system, then Microsoft Security Essentials, Windows 7 Firewall Control (XP free Version) and Malwarebytes' AntiMalware (free or Pro) or whatever you prefer security.
    Then copy the files over.
    This will probably lead to the best performance.
  • Satellite A500 - how to reinstall the original Windows 7?

    Hello

    I bought the Toshiba Satellite A500-19U and Windows 7. I tried to create a new partition, then I've done assets so he hid, after restarting the laptop, I had a black screen and massage (bootmgr is missing)

    So I installed another copy of Windows 7 just to connect to my computer. Then after the copy of Windows 7 installation I made inactive D if it appeared there is file recovery. So my question is: as long as I have this file I want to reinstall the original Windows 7 I have in the drive hard, but how?

    When I press F and repair, then it does not give the last option of HARD drive recovery! Why and I have the recovery file?

    Please help me

    Hello

    I guess you didn't read the manual user, first of all. I m right? ;)

    Well, normally HARD drive recovery you can start if you go into the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer. After that, you can choose the option of HARD drive recovery.

    But I guess that this isn't possible anymore because you have installed another copy of Windows 7. If this menu isn't available anymore.

    The only option to restore factory settings using the Toshiba recovery disc. Did you create it? This can be through with preinstalled creative drive recovery Toshiba but if you didn t create it, it s too late now, too.

    The only option now is to order a new drive Toshiba Recovery directly. So take a look in your user manual.

    As I see it, * Toshiba Hdd recovery * does not solve your problem. You checked with the other memory, but it always freeze. so, I guess that a hard drive can be a troublemaker. If your laptop is still under warranty, you should contact them (SAV)

  • Satellite L300-01:00 - need the drivers Windows XP 64-bit

    Hi all!

    I recently bought the Toshiba Satellite L300-01:00 which has 4 GB of memory RAM. The thing is, 32-bit Windows cannot allocate more than 3 GB of RAM and there is no drivers for Windows 64 bit on this site.

    Can I use these drivers XP, downloaded from the site, as well on XP64 and XP32? If this is not the case, what am I, what to do?
    Thank you very much!

    Are you bother just did 3.2 GB can be used or you think really with 4 GB, you'll have more powerful laptop?

    There is no sense to think about installing 64-bit if the phone is not supported for 64 - bit. Maybe you can find some drivers on the internet, but you will have all the other stuff specific to Toshiba.

    If you have re-installed Windows successfully, but when he starts at the 'first time' Settings Wizard, where you enter the name of the computer, the user name, the wifi settings, etc you can not use the touchscreen or keyboard? I had this problem before as well. If you have a new installation of Windows then the drivers for the keyboard and touch screen are not available. The only way around this is to plug in a USB keyboard. I don't remember exactly, but I do not think the USB full-size on the keyboard dock works until the driver is installed, so you may need to get an adapter USB On The Go, so you can plug a USB keyboard full size in on the Tablet microUSB port.

    With Windows 10 Wi - Fi worked well. Suddenly three days it s active no more

    At startup, the computer recognizes the card and then turns off the front LED.

    The card WiFi Intel 5100 AGN and pilots the latest work well.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled but no result.
    What can I do to get my Wi - Fi works again?

    PS: when I've been upgraded to Windows 8, it had the same problem...

    This old notebook was designed for Vista and support for Win7. No more than that.
    FN + F8 is controlled by special tool developed for the feature FN keys.

    As much I know Toshiba offers no update for this older model laptop.
    Let's see if any other A350 owner has found a solution for this.
