I have a 4 years old HP G60-235DX computer laptop Vista Home Premium OEM factory installed. I had been doing the blue screen of death the last 8 months. On Tuesday afternoon, I ran ChkDsk. It was taking too long so I hit the power button. now on startup, a message indicates "Windows Failed To Start." A recent hardware or software change might be the Cause. "I tried to restore it to 4pmPST (Tuesday 7/2), but he sent the message:"your computer is running In A Limited Diagnostic State. If you use the system restore in this Limited State, you can't undo the restore operation. "Expert Microsoft at the reception of the answer took me by (attempt), safe mode safe mode with network (failed attempt), last known good configuration (failed attempt). He said that he needs me to order a HP recovery disk because the Vista system files are corrupted, damaged or missing. Does this sound correct? Try to get a good HP # order JUST a recovery disk. I was the victim of the "have you tried to fix your own computer without HP offers you a recovery disk? This is what happens when you try to fix it yourself without HP offers you a recovery disk. »

Downgrading from Vista to Windows XP Home in Satellite P200-16 b
Hi people!
I wonder if someone has already tried to downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP. I have a Satellite P200-16 b.
I was check in the support Web site and I found most of the pilots it but I think not all.Please post your comments here.
Thank you
EHello
I used the search option and found many threads on the downgrade from Vista to XP on Satellite P200 PSPB0E
All Toshiba drivers are published on the European driver Toshiba page.
Of course, you won't find additional software and programs like WinDVD, etc. insofar as these software are only a part of the Toshiba recovery image and as I guess are not to free them.An important note; you need to install XP drivers as mentioned in the installation instructions txt file. This doc is also found on the Toshiba driver page!
Then you should not get any trouble of installation.
Best regards and happy new year 2008 :D
