• 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
  Gerard

  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

• Satellite U400 - I confused speed up my system - removed desktop.ini icon

  Some time ago I moved (or deleted) a desktop.ini icon.
  This changed the way files/documents are stored on my computer.

  I get a lot of shortcuts that I did not do and seem to not be connected to anything.
  There are a lot of ntuser.ini and NTUSER. Icons DAT in different folders.

  The files are duplicated, and appear in paces I put them.
  No document is missing, but it takes time to find them; the logic of the production system seems to be lost.

  How to restore the original system? I don't remember when I made this mistake, and I wonder if I did a system restore or something like that could happen to all the software that I subsequently towards the down loaded.

  I'm not very expert in computers, as you may have guessed.

  I have Satellite U400 and Vista.

  Hello

  Have you tried using Windows Vista system restore? You can set the operating system goes back to an earlier era. Therefore, you must go into the advanced boot menu, select fix my computer, and then click System Restore.

  In the worst cases, you reinstall the full operating system. You can use the function of HARD drive recovery or the Toshiba Recovery disk you burning?

  Good luck!

• Slow start on Vista Home Premium - Satellite U400-15B

  Hello

  I just bought Satellite U400-15B and am finding it takes very long to start Vista, I went into msconfig and disabled the things I don't use and stuff that I think is not necessary, but it is still having to wait ages before that I can use the laptop. I have enough RAM and processor speed, so I don't think that the specifications of the laptop are a problem

  Is there something that can be done on this slow start, any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think slow start or laptop slow operations depend on good configuration of the OS. I played with this last month and I am now convinced that Vista starts and runs on my laptop.
  I wrote about this in another thread and if you have time look under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=134947

  So, I now have to put on all the involved drivers as well as drivers TOSHIBA original, right?

  How can I do this? What drivers to I need? Do I have to download all the drivers concerned (total 113) one by one on the Web from Toshiba site?

  ANY help is appreciated as I see myself spend all night in front of the PC...

  Thank you

• Satellite U400 - How can I install Windows Vista in German?

  Hello

  I bought the Satellite U400-108 in Switzerland, but the language of Windows Vista is in English.

  How can I change German?

  When I start the recovery, I can choose only vista in English. But it says on the package Windows Vista EN/DE/FR/IT

  Could someone help me?
  Thank you very much and sorry for my bad English.

  jax3131

  Hello

  you had the S4 of the VISTA operating system variant but! After you have decided for a language... like you, English, the other 3 languages will be deletet on the HARD drive. When you burn your own recovery media, there will be only the language on it. There is no way to go back.

  but you have a chance. You can order a new media recovery with 4 languages at this link.

• Satellite U400-03 s - how downgrade from Vista to XP?

  Hi guys,.

  I bought laptop Toshiba Satellite U400/03 s with pre-installed Vista Business and I want to downgrade to Windows XP Professional. My laptop comes with a professional the product for Windows XP Recovery disk, but I don't know how to use this drive as it did not come with serial number.

  Where can I get the serial number? I have to ring Microsoft or Toshiba?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you very much.

  Sunny

  Hello

  AFAIK the downgrade is fairly easy: just boot from the disk of XP downgrade that was shipped with your laptop and follow the instructions on the screen and that s all you have to do! :)

  You n t need a serial number, if you install the operating system on a disk from Toshiba. It s already configured.

• Satellite U400-177 with the slow start of vista

  About two weeks ago, I bought a computer laptop satellite U400-177, with an operating system installed vista Home premium. Since the first moment, when I turn on the machine, the operating system startup is desperately slow! It takes about five minutes for the laptop end the beginning to start working! Is there something I can do to compensate for the departure faster?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I m U400 owner.
  I must say that a lot of apps is preinstalled by Toshiba and this could affect the startup time

  First of all, you must either update the Tempro tool or you should remove it (if you need t n).
  Second, you must start the msconfig and in the Startup tab you could disable some not important background processes.
  I put t know what is important to you and you want to use applications.

  If you n t know the meaning of some process then google for that in most cases, you could get a few details

• Satellite U400-144 - Vista cannot return

  Hello everyone

  I got this new Toshiba Satellite U400-144 (PSU40E), came with Vista home and worked really well until I decided to install Linux. Everything was going fine until I had my HARD drive partitions, when I deleted my 1.5 GB partition, which is called partition EISA!

  I don't know how to get it back, no disc don't came with the laptop and Vista no longer exists and I can't get it back.
  Quite simply when I boot I get a message: LACK of OPERATING SYSTEM

  Can anyone tell how to get this score again?
  Please help and thanks in advance :)

  Hello!

  First, the EISA partition do you mean don't contain Vista installation files or let's say the recovery disc. The EISA partition contains files for restore systems and it is a feature of Vista, not Toshiba.
  With the recovery disk, you would be able to get the factory settings, this means an installation of Vista with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

  The only way to return Vista is a Toshiba Recovery disk. Go to a local ASP or you can order one directly from Toshiba.

• Audio driver does not work on Satellite U400-112 with Vista 64-bit Buss

  Hello

  I installed Win Vista Buss. 64-bit on my Toshiba Satellite U400-112 but the original driver for the Toshiba site does not work properly, honestly does not at all. The only driver that works is a winner. Vista driver but when I plugged in her headphones just got pregnant shape, but there is no sound in headphones.

  Can someone help me, please?

  Hello!

  I have a Satellite U400 with Windows Vista 64 bit also, and I used the driver on the Toshiba site (Conexant 4.36.7.0).
  It works without problems, I can hear sounds with the speakers and headphones.

  Maybe you have an old BIOS. After the installation of Windows Vista, I made an update of the BIOS so try that too.
  The BIOS you can find also on the Toshiba site.

• Can I install Vista Home Premium 64-Bit on my Satellite U400?

  Hello

  In another thread, I posted a problem with no hot spare for the OS pre-installed Grrr...

  In any case, I think to upgrade the 64-bit operating system - is - anyone know if this is possible on the Satellite U400? I checked the specifications of the processor on the Intel Web site and it seems that the CPU can... but on the rest of the machine?

  Thank you

  Peter

  Well, Yes. You must take a physical inventory of Sysinfo or device manager and then for each specific devie locate and download a driver.

  When you uprade to Vista 64-bit, then any driver not found during installation can be acquired from your download. Vista is generally well equipped with drivers, with the exception of the exclusive features of Toshiba.

• HARD drive protector does not not on Satellite U400 PSU44E Win Vista Ultimate

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite U400 PSU44E

  I have install Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, with a clean install.

  I have download the good drivers for protector of HDD on Windows Vista, but an error message appears saying that the program is not compatible with this model.

  Anyone with the same problem has this problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I visited the European Toshiba driver page and didn t find the Vista drivers for the U400 PSU44E series.
  Are you sure that you downloaded the good HDD Protection Utility to 100%?

  At the other hand that this error message may appears because the HDD Protection Utility is not fully compatible with the ultimate edition of Vista
  I read in some messages that this might be the reason also.

• Satellite U400 - Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hello guys,.

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite U400/03 s with a pre-installed version of Vista business & do not like. It came with a recovery disk for Windows XP Pro product. This confused me a bit. Can I downgrade Vista Business with XP Pro?

  My next question is, if I can downgrade to XP Pro I need registry XP with Mircosoft?

  Also, if I do not need to register with Mircosoft XP, where can I get the registration key of?

  Greatly forward a response.

  Thank you very much.

  Normand

  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.
