• Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E - Win 8 upgrade questions

  I decided to update my old Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E-00700TTE Vista to Windows 8.

  After two tries he has been successful. Vista made me mad, and when I decided to give my son, I wanted to work better.

  Toshiba doesn't seem to be willing to support the old models. (over 3 years).

  I can not even find this model code in the lists, the site does not seem to recognize the serial number.

  This is why all the Windows 8 upgrade tools provided are not relevant.

  I met a few minor problems before, but the Toshiba Turkey never replied messages, even those concerning the new products when I considered buying a new laptop. In the end I went for an Asus, which exceeds my expectations.

  I don't expect all support this time either, because of past experience. But I still want to try one last time.

  Is there a way to get the material in this workbook in Windows 8?

  Satellite Pro A300 is not that win 8 supported means that you will not find to win 8 drivers for this series, but of course, you can use Win 8 on this unit.

  In some cases, the municipality of Win 7 drivers would be compatible.

  Toshiba tools like VAP (value added package) to win 8 can also be used, but we must look for a Win 8 VAP released for other more recent models.

  Touchpad driver can be downloaded from the page of the Synaptics driver also other drivers like LAN or WLan can be found on chip manufacturer pages.

• Satellite A350 - cannot order the Win 7 Upgrade - problem of credit card

  To the right,.

  I bought a laptop, A350, in 2009 and ordered to Windows 7 using the www.toshibawin7upgrade.com program, but I couldn't get anything from anywhere until today.

  Recently, I asked the delivery during 2 months nothing delivered, but the team behind this program cancelled my order. (Order No.: 4440058036)

  Day before yesterday, I ordered again (order No.: 4440124899) but this time another email was sent on my credit card because they could not charge the card so that they are not able to send the Windows 7 upgrade.
  In addition, it is mentioned to get in touch with the service the customer in Turkey, but the phone number provided on the page does not work.
  I don't know that my credit card works because I order a lot of stuff from other Web sites in the world.

  Almost 3 months ago, I still don't know where to contact them and how to order the Windows 7 upgrade.

  I hope that during the purchase of computer A350 laptop brand TOSHIBA, but today I am considering my decision isn't true at all.

  Please tell us how to deal with which to order Windows 7 upgrade as announced at the sale of portable for the A350.

  Hello

  For me, it looks like there are some problems with the credit card.
  Who knows what makes you wrong maybe that you have entered the right number or missed something maybe, there is another problem with your credit card
  In my opinion, you should get in touch with your Bank and should ask what could be the problem

  Here are the other Toshiba page where you could ask a support team for assistance if a problem with Win 7 upgrade kit would appear.

• Reinstall Windows 7 on hard drive again with only the Win 7 Upgrade disc?

  So I have an e9180t which, like clockwork, freezes after about an hour or two after the boot.  I thought it might be the curse of bad mothers, with what they came, but I hope that it is something else so test everything I can.  I noticed that it does not freeze upwards when it is started in safe mode with network.  The hard drive failed the test SMART so I wonder if it's time to replace it as if that has anything to do with the crash.   I can move the cursor, but no applications will be open and eventually everything becomes insensitive causing be tohit the power button to restart.   I already stopped unnecessary startup programs and it will still freeze in unsafe mode.

  The PC came with Vista and I think it's what's on backup hard disk partition.  I have the disk Win 7 Upgrade from HP.  My questons are-

  1. If I buy a new HD 7 upgrade disc will be enough to install the full version of Win 7?

  2. anything else I should do when I install the new HD and more to reactivate Windows?

  Thank you.

  Hi Mike,.

  Have you created a HP recovery disk to reinstall the factory image when replacing the HARD drive?

  It sounds like you have maybe a problem creating the recovery discs now.

  A Smart HARD drive test failure points to a HDD failure. The symptoms you are experiencing are likely caused by this fact. You can also have a card mother or any other hardware problem.

  You have the key to drive and Win 7 Upgrade product.

  I'm pretty sure that the upgrade to Windows 7 to be launched from Win Vista. The upgrade of Windows 7 is a full installation of Windows, so this isn't the problem. But he can't run the installation unless you start the upgrade in Win Vista. Normally, an upgrade to Windows 7 is launched within the current operating system, Win 7 valid existence of an eligible OS Setup and then request a restart to complete the installation of upgrade.

  You can replace the HARD drive and try to install Win 7 itself. If this fails and you do not have the Vista recovery discs, you can buy an HP recovery disc set here. There are three different versions. Select one that corresponds to the operating system that is installed at the factory.

  You may have another problem to replace the HDD with a Format HDD advanced most recent. Please see thisHP Supportdocument for more information.

  If you cannot install the upgrade Windows 7 itself or Win Vista because of the issue of the Advanced Format HARD drive, you may need to purchase a copy of Windows 7 OEM.

• Win 8 upgrade and Express Gate

  How this will be achieved with ASUS Express Gate.  I have an ASUS Eee PC 1005 HA Win 8.  In this implementation, Express Gate is autonomous and does not seem to create it's own partition.  He did install Dual Boot.

  Yes, Express Gate will need to be reinstalled.  Yes, it will be set up (or try) Dual Boot.

  Please note that assessment 8 WIN makes no mention of Express Gate.  It is perhaps a good sign.

  The upgrade from WIN 8 will tolerate this.  Even XP is not fast on this little guy so express gate allows quick searches on the internet.  That, the Excel and Word viewers is all about the this bug is needed to.

  The other candidate to win 8 upgrade (Vista) uses a different version of the Express Gate.  In this case, it is evoked through the BIOS switch and the main program is simply Program Files. It should work very probably.

  While we are at it.  After execution of the evaluator, will be the low loader know that the 1005HA is 32-Bit device?

  Linux start-up ExpressGate does not seem to occur after an upgrade for an ASUS 1015PEM from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 10 via the upgrade from Ms.

• I have an upgrade question. I received a notification when I connected my computer to the internet that Lightroom 5.7.1 was available

  I have an upgrade question. I received a notification when I connected my computer to the internet that Lightroom 5.7.1 was available had merge to HDR & Panoramic photos. I can't find these. Where can I find them.

  It is unfortunate that Adobe has chosen to use the "update" in the notice inside LR 5. It is not an "update". It is an 'upgrade '. Thus, you pay if you want. Also as usual, Adobe directs clients to the CC solution and makes it hard to find perpetual license option.

• Satellite L755: Win 10 upgrade and good question

  Hello

  I have two problems with my computer laptop is satellite L755-M1KQ,.

  My first question is, can I download windows 10 on that?

  my number is PSK2YE-0KQ02UAR

  My second problem is the noise in my laptop is not working, not always just some time, please help me.

  Of course you could improve the system of Windows 10.

  The material is strong enough to manage 10 Windows.
  But Toshiba does not provide drivers Windows 10 for this series... so it might be possible that some features of the laptop (keys FN, etc.) would not work properly...

  With regard to the sound:
  You did not provide many details and if the issue cannot be reproduced, then it will be very difficult to find a solution...
  I think you should check if the sound issue is displayed using the headphones or speakers only... also check if you can update the audio driver...

• Satellite Pro L850 - 1 L 4 - cannot boot from Win 8 Upgrade disc

  Bought there is a little less than 2 years. With the upgrade of Windows 8.0 DVD.
  Let me now turn to Win 8 (then Win 8.1).

  No matter what I try (the BIOS changes) peut t get the DVD of start-up. Under the boot of CSM (default for the laptop), it returns an error of independent disk of the system.

  I tried the DVD to other readers of PC which also results in the same error message.
  Other discs for example repair Windows & Tosh recovery disks start OK.

  So I think that the disc must be faulty.

  My question is if someone else has had this problem or even successfully upgraded using the provided Toshiba DVD?. Get your hands on Toshiba get replacement DVD seems an impossible task especially 2 years later.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  First of all, please go to BIOS and set it to settings (default load) by default.

  Then, you can disable secure startup to boot from external media such as disk or USB key flash memory.

  Here is a very interesting thread which brings a solution to the problem of similar startup using the image to win 8.

• Qosmio F60 - no additional touchpad and function Fn after Win 8 upgrade

  I have recently installed Windows 8 on my Qosmio F60 and now I have a few questions, I think it might be related driver but not sure what drivers in particular.

  1. the touchpad still works to move the pointer but sliding along the right edge does not scroll more, I had a look on the Web page of drivers but can not find the driver I need to install to make it work. Also, anyone know if there is a driver Windows 8 so that I can drag the edge to bring up the charms and the tabs?

  2. the FN keys no longer work, so I can't control the brightness or other features along the top row of the keyboard.

  If anyone can help with or the other of these questions would be great.

  Thank you

  Hello

  As you can see that there is no special driver to win 8 BOF series Qosmio F60.
  This isn't win 8 supported.
  However, I think that you should be able to use the upgrade drivers to win 8 published for Qosmio F750.
  Try it.

  Recommend that you install the driver for the touchpad (from Synaptics), the utility of the feature key Toshiba value added package and system of Toshiba driver

  Hello

  I have a laptop HP DV7 - 1228CA and would like to WIN 10 operating system. I intend to move to the version of WIN 7 (64-bit), and then perform a free update to WIN 10 (64-bit) version. I've been able to find the software and driver download for WIN 7, but not for WIN 10 on the HP site. I particularly worried of HP to WIN 10 software version (e.g. HP Recovery Manager and etc...). I don't know that HP will release the necessary version of WIN 10 of software tools for this machine. Does anyone have this experience on the DV7 WIN 10 of WINDOWS 7 or Vista upgrade?

  Answers to your questions:

  (1) the Boot CD/USB is used to initiate Macrium Reflect whether you can run the restore operation.  You can't run that from the hard disk as it is used when MR runs from there.

  (2) I found that I'd resize the system reserved partition, because at 100 MB, it was too small for Win10, causing the upgrade of Win10 to fail whenever I ran it.  This partition is implemented on the preinstalled PC with Win7, the upgrade tool does not set it and in many cases, although it MUST expand, as in my case, it is not and does not, on the contrary.

  IF you have no system reserved partition, then do not perform as the upgrade tool should then work OK without him create a.

• HP Compaq 6370b: Clean partition Win 7 install question

  My first post.

  I have a laptop HP Compaq 6370b, S/N [number of Series edited by Moderator] running Win XP and plan on running a new install for Win 7 Pro 32 bit. I have upgraded the BIOS (as suggested by the forum) at F.20 on 16/12/2014 and reviewed messages on the partition for HP tools. My question is when I format the existing HHD I must add a partition for the HP tools? A response by Dragon fur message leads me to believe that the download and installation of HP tools UEFI create a folder on the operating system drive and I would not require an additional partition.  Thanks for your help.

  Hello

  Should uefi tools be installed on a separate FAT or Fat32 partition to work properly

  When you download and run the UEFI software, the installer will give you the opportunity to automatically create the HP_TOOLS partition (if it does not already exist on the HARD disk) - for more details, see the "Prerequisites" topic on the following link.
