• Re: Problem with downgrading from Vista to XP on Satellite A200 - 1N1 (ETA

  Dear friends I need help for the downgrade from vista to Xp sp2. My PC is Satellite A200 - 1N1 (PSAE3E)
  Thank you very much

  So, what problem do you have? I mean without knowing what problem you have, nobody can help you? Where is the problem?

• Need help with this problem without downgrading from Vista to XP pro.

  OK so I have a problem, but it is in a common category, it is a rare problem as given that everywhere I look I can't seem to find someone who has the same problem.

  Question #1: Heres Alright so my question downgrade from vista 64 bit of the month last to XP pro SP2... Well, I'm going through the process of installation very well, wipe the hard drive, make new partion (or how ever spell you it) etc. It starts the formatting, and it installs everything seems to be fine. Now when it comes to the reboot screen it counts down it restarts correctly now, this is where the problem occurs. During the restart of the process rather than continue through the installation process which should be, where it says "Press any key to boot from the CD" soon after that instead of going into the installation process it says "disc read error" or something of the sort just underneath. Help, please!

  Question #2 also now that I re installed vista I did all good also, erased the hard disk (even I tried to install XP on) just to make sure they had no data on this. Well now, during startup it asks if I want "a previous version of windows" or "Windows XP" as if I double started somehow. Vista loads still very well when I choose it however. If I managed to do an install own success of XP it should fix right?

  Thanks again.

  Hi Kevin112,

  Thanks for posting. Follow these steps on your XP disk.

  1. place your Windows XP installation CD and start to her...
  2. Press any button to start the Windows installation (don't worry... we do not actually use the installer at this point)
  3. wait a few moments for the installation program starts, when you see repair an installation of Windows XP using the Recovery Console, and then press the R key
  4. wait until you see this screen, enter the number of your master installation. (Typically 1 to C:\Windows)
  5. press ENTER.
  6. If you are prompted to do so, enter your administrator password. If you don't have one, leave the field blank and press to enter.
  7. from the command prompt, type: chkdsk/r (note the space between chkdsk and / r)
  Allow it to complete undisturbed.
  8. remove the disc, then restart.

  After completing this, then format it and try to reinstall XP again. As for your other question if completely format you your drive using XP you should not see the previous version of XP. The only reason you would see that it's the Vista BCD is located on a second hard drive in your computer. If this is the case and you want to do an install own format two readers please.

• Downgrade from Windows - 8 updates from Windows-7 Pro-Windows-8 causing of programs; Troubleshooting and problems

  Dear Microsoft community team,
   
  I installed the Windows (27) - 8 and Office 2010 updates yesterday that was recommended in the notifications of security & systems.
   
  After installing these updates (27) in my HP Envy h8 - 1520t PC, my programs said crash and stop and start automatically. This has been a recurring problem with the updates of Windows-8 that I installed in my new PC.
   
  As a result, I am unable to play my favorite games, use applications and have constant program blocks.
   
  I am very disappointed with these problems. I bought a copy of OEM OS-Windows 7 PRO 64 bit and would like to downgrade from Windows-8 to-Windows 7 PRO 64-bit OS. Can you please provide me with instructions to install Windows - 7 PRO on my PC?
   
  I spent countless hours online and search for bugs on the web sites of Microsoft for Windows-8 updates of the anomalies and corrections, with no resolution. HP has no alternative but to contact Microsoft support. I can't find a link email Microsoft support anywhere.
   
  Please help me as soon as possible. Many individuals have downgraded to Windown-8 to-Windows 7 PRO with positive results on their HP Envy h8 - 1520 t PC. I never had a problem with the Windows 7 operating system.
   
  Sincerely,

• Portege Z930 - Downgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 7

  Hi all

  I have serious problems with my new laptop Portege Z930-138. I wanted to downgrade from Win8 to Win7 and transferred my old iso of Win7 on a bootable USB.

  I changed the BIOSsetting CMS BIOS in order to boot from USB and it worked.
  But later, I deleted all partitions on my HARD drive in order to have a primary partition where to install my old Win7.

  However I can't do!

  Now I have 1 GB 119.1 unallocated space and there is no way to create a new partition from it.
  Also when I try to install Win7 it says the disc's style GPT.

  I also tried to convert it from the command prompt, but it does not work.

• Downgrade from Vista to XP for Satellite A210-16F PSAEL

  Other users of laptops from Toshiba greetings

  I come to you with what I noticed to be a fairly frequent problem for users of Satellite A2xx - downgrade from Windows Vista to XP.

  I am owner of a 2 - day old of a Toshiba Satellite A210 - 16F PSAEL (AMD processor) and Vista Home Premium crashes on me during the installation of an application. So I searched the forum and found a full list of the XP drivers for the series equipped with AMD (my thanks for people who have set up their discoveries). I also found a guide to downgrade to XP, but it was the Intel-based and intended for users A200.

  My question would be if there is such a guide out there for the A210 series, the AMD-based or could someone please indicate the steps to follow for the downgrade.

  Thanks in advance

  Interested, too, that's why push this thread a little, aka a friendly BUMP ;)

• Downgrade from Vista to XP [DV2740SE]

  Hi all. I do a downgrade from Vista to XP and I can not foud the drivers.

  Can someone help me plese?

  THX.

  This Conexant posted to Skydrive is the same as the file Mediafire post by Mariza... which is, btw, his own personal discovery and seems better to work for a microphone. Get it if you have problems to Mediafire, like that sometimes.

  I think that Mariza said the Install.exe can be executed from it rather than having to use the Device Manager.

  Hello

  A downgrade from Vista to XP is possible. Why not?
  But as far as I know, so you need to reinstall the full specifications but in my opinion, this isn't a problem because you have the XP Recovery disk. Just boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen.

  But before that, you you should burn the Windows Vista recovery disk. How do you know this? You need to start only the Toshiba recovery disc creator and you need a blank DVD. Then the Vista recovery disk will be created, and if you want new Vista, you must start only on this disc. That s all because it contains the settings factory and if all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

  If you have installed XP you must register it on Microsoft. It is not necessary.
  AFAIK, you must enter a product key. It of already on the recovery disk.

• Satellite L300 PSLB8A - cannot locate the WLan adapter after downgrading from Vista to XP

  Model - L300 Satellite PSLB8A-01F004
  Australian model
  Place of residence current UK

  Happy new year to you all. I have a problem with the adapter wireless following a downgrade from Vista to XP Pro home. Device Manager indicates that a network adapter, which is the LAN and it does not work properly.

  I have two points with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

  I find all the major engines of the Toshiba Australia but he lists three (I think) site possible WLAN - Atheros, RealTek, and one of the other manufacturers.

  I tried all three without success but am willing to acknowledge that I can have a mistake, perhaps by installing all three drivers at the same time for example.

  The indicator on the front of the box portable wireless lights on or off with the hard switch setting.

  I am also unable to locate the display of all available wireless netrworks, this can be a symptom of the driver is not installed.

  I tried to locate the wireless card, but it doesn't seem to be accessible through the background panels, including the Panel of RAM module.

  Any ideas please?

  > I have two Articles with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

  The Ethernet controller is the WLAN adapter.
  I guess that the WLan driver is missing and so the wireless network card does not appear under network adapters

  Please check this Toshiba How TO:

  This will help you find the right WLan driver for this chip.

• Sound card is not after the downgrade from Vista to Xp on Equium L350

  All other drivers work very well outside of my sound card.

  Does anyone know where to find the drivers I need for my laptop?

  I know what we call drivers

  VIA AC 97 Audio Controller (WDM and SIS 7018 Audio Driver)

  Only problem is that I don't know what those who work with my Toshiba L350 - 10L

  There are different versions of these drivers. No one knows everything everyone who it is?

  Thanks in advance :)

  Hello

  If you download the latest driver from realtek site (which belongs to this sound card since it s a realtek card) you can't do anything wrong. Just check www.realtek.com and download the latest being.

• Downgrade from vista to XP pro on Pavilion dv3-2005ee (need drivers)

  Hello

  I want to downgrade from vista to XP SP3 because some old games on does not work on vista as Hitman:codename 47 and TheSims... etc.

  Then... I need help to find the driver for this laptop. I did a forum search for my model and found nothing.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  Before that we'll start with her, I have something to tell you. Decommissioning of this model is not always easy, and your model is designed to work well with Vista. Please check first that link written by Joshua Wood and concentrate on problems that may appear when you install the sound card in it. I don't know then it's dv5 guide, but a lot of hardware and drivers are the same for both models. It is recommended also by me to print this guide and information on the problems with the sound card.

  First make the Vista backup. Here you have all the information, how do.

  You have a folder with the drivers & programs that can prove very useful after downgrade XP. Copy the folder in C:\Swsetup on DVD Before you format your hard drive.

  Now you need to integrate your drivers Sata (only x 86 drivers) win nLite.

  Here is the guide how to do it and here are AMD SATA AHCI Controller for you. Just unRAR it drivers with winrar.

  Remember, also, that you use the Windows XP SP2 version. If you have not got the version SP2 here you can download this service pack

  and here you guide how to integrate this file with your new system of nLite.

  In this program, you can even burn your new XP cd with this driver.

• downgrade from Notebook G7 - 2217cl to Win7 lack of USB drivers

  Hello! I have a portable g7 - 2217cl I bought refurbished BB online. I hated the Win8 system, so I "had" to win7. I know that the pros here are immediately go on to say this downgrade from Win8 of Win7 is not recommended because of this problem. However, the ONLY question I need fixed is that the three USB ports are inadmissible due to missing drivers. I can't find these drivers, of course. The computer itself works a lot better on the Win7 system. Start is smooth and it it less glitch.

  Y at - the drivers of compatible USB controller that I could download? I do not have my recovery disc for Win8 (I know, stupid of me to lose those). It is not a full drawback, as I can still operate the machine and use the keyboard to move the pointer. Œuvres Ethernet, sound (loudspeaker internal and made external) and charge cord work. I have not yet tested VGA or HDMI, but I did not need to. I do a lot with it. I just need USB ports to work so that I can use my mouse and printer.

  Thank you for any response!

  Josh
