  You can use an external USB CD/DVD drive to boot from disks to win 8.

  Or you try to install the 8 Win using a flash USB memory sik.
  But in order to install the memory flash USB one Win 8 Win 8 ISO (image) files is necessary.
  In addition, you will need to create a bootable USB. You can do this by using the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool

• Portege Z930 - upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro

  I bought the upgrade to 7 to 8 during this promotional offer in early 2013, but so far I was expecting a better time perform the upgrade. I'm doing the upgrade having prepared a USB pen with the ISO, I downloaded in 2013.

  However, after 20 minutes of work, about 99% it is said that the upgrade has failed.

  I read somewhere that it is perhaps because of the recovery of my Portege partition.

  Someone have faced similar problems?
  Please consider that I am performing an upgrade instead of a clean install.

  Thank you

  da

  PS and probably OT: anyone know if it is possible to obtain ISO 8.1 with the 8 with an activation code?

  As I'm not mistaken the Portege Z930 was sold with a preinstalled Windows 7 but Windows 8 extra DVDs should be part of the package.

  You do not have this DVD in Windows 8 support?

  In any case, I found a useful page that provides different information you how to put the system to Windows 8.

• Portege Z930 - new Windows 7 and installing the driver

  I have a Toshiba Portege Z930 Ultrabook.

  I don't use it for a while because he was very very slow when navigating or attempt to perform other tasks. I scanned the system with several antivirus (now I have Avast and Fixila, but I also used Kaspersky and Norton) and nothing came.

  Now, I decided to reinstall Windows.
  So, I received a kit of Windows 7 Pro (it's the license granted with the laptop) and I'm fighting for a week to make it work properly.

  Now seems as graphics card does not work, I have most of the hard disk full some old files of windows, etc, etc.

  1. How is the right way to install a new version of windows on this laptop (without the old installation files) and use the accessories available on the laptop (graphics card, fingerprints... tool)

  And YES, I tried all THE drivers available on the Toshiba support successfully section only for the wireless card.

  2. have you had problems with the speed?

  Thank you
  Victor

  Hello

  > Now looks like graphics card does not.

  Does that mean exactly? Graphics card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager?
  In case it is, the driver is installed and works of the GPU.

  What Portege Z930-xxx are you?
  The exact part number might be useful to check the specs of the laptop.

  By the way: the driver / software installation is not very difficult.
  Forget the other Toshiba software if you n t want to install it
  Pick up the pilots only...

  However, some parts of the software as a value-added Package must be installed because this package installs a range of important public services.

• 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.

  You guys have any ideas what to do?

  Hi Armin

  The RTM of Windows 8.1 version is in the month of August, so I think that Toshiba can offer some new drivers will fix all the problems. Until the official launch, I don t think that you will find whatever on Toshiba support and download page. I fear he must wait a little in the hope that Toshiba will offer necessary updates of m.

  Let's see if someone has more information on this subject.

• Portege Z930 - 14 X - need key for the new installation of Windows 7

  Hello

  our company bought a Toshiba Portege Z930 - 14 X, and it is necessary to do a clean install of Windows 7.

  Unfortunately there is no key working Windows 7 can be found anywhere on the unit.
  I read the installation key, but the key is not supposed to be activated, so does not work for a clean install.

  There is usually a sticker of license at the bottom of the device, but this laptop has nothing.

  So, where can I find this Windows 7 key?

  Kind regards
  GSUs

  > Unfortunately there is no key working Windows 7 can be found anywhere on the unit.

  If you want to use a clean Windows system, you must purchase the MS Windows disk containing the serial key.
  Toshiba laptops are preinstalled with Toshiba image containing the OEM version of the Windows system and drivers. This image is already enabled. The series key isn t necessary.

• My Satellite A200 - 1 GB scored 4.7 Windows Vista Performance Rating

  Hi all

  I run a Performance Rating in Windows Vista yesterday.

  It is excellent!
  Base score was 4.7 (overall rating)

  Under Scores as follows:

  {color: #0000ff}
  Processor calculations: 4.9
  Memory :4.8
  Aero Glass graphics: 4.7
  Games graphics: 4.7
  HARD drive: 4.7 {color}

  I'm thrilled about my new A200 - 1 GB.
  I found his performance is very good with Win Vista.

  Thanks again for Toshiba!

  Dear friends... Send comments on this...

  Kind regards

  Updates will not increase this Vista scores!
  I noticed that each new installation of driver or the application decreases the score.

  I found lots of useful information on other computers and websites vista and it seems that is nothing unusual. It seems all the operating systems and the modification of the registry entry has a bad influence on this Vista partition.

  Need simply s Vista ;)

• Portege Z930 - 12 H - update of the BIOS and McAfee Endpoint Encryption?

  The update to the latest BIOS (Ver.6.70) for my laptop Portege Z930 12 H comes with the warning:

  «If you use the BitLocker Windows Drive encryption, please temporarily suspend (or turn off) before BitLocker Drive Encryption updated BIOS.»

  The same caveat applies to McAfee Endpoint Encryption, which is used on my laptop and I can * not * pause or stop? Or can I apply the upgrade of the BIOS safely?

  Thank you.

  As much I know Bitlocker isn't related to Antivirus from McAfee software and two security tools are not connected to each other. BitLocker is a tool for Microsoft Windows and McAfee is a 3rd party software preinstallation on the device.

  I found a nice how doc on the update of the BIOS.

• Portege Z930-146: BSOD running Win 7 64 bit - support pointers and advice

  Hello

  First post following the latter (academia / business) purchase of a Portege Z930-146 (serial number XC141056H, short PT235E part number).

  Configured the pre-installation software 64 - bit W7, local installed, delivery to the primary user (the boss).

  User reports 3 BSOD in a few days - I have the mini-decharges and made first order analysis using blue-screen display:

  PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA (ntoskrnl.exe)
  SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (dxgkrnl.exe)
  MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (ntoskrnl.exe)

  We really are the guys from UNIX, so it is not familiar territory.

  I just updated the BIOS but now have a long (50 +) list of possible drivers also be updated. One at a time to download and install?

  I ran the diagnostics memory and disk - without errors or warnings that are reported.

  Can someone identify a likely problem, or direct me gently in the direction of the road to official support of Toshiba please or suggest next steps?

  Thank you in advance,

  GLM

  Ntoskrnl.exe is a Microsoft kernel boot and the dxgkrnl.exe seems to have something to do with the chart.

  I recommend to check if the update of the display driver would improve the performance of the system.
  Then visit the Toshiba UE driver page, select the Satellite Z930 PT235E and download the latest display driver Intel.
  Z930-146 was equipped with chip Intel HD Graphics 4000, so you need the Intel driver.

  You can also try to download the driver directly from the Intel page since they always provide the latest version.

• Portege Z930: Loss of Fn keys after upgrade to win 8 - can't turn WiFi switch

  After several months waiting for my hour I just began my Portege Z930 - 11G for Windows 8 Pro upgrade.

  To a large extent, it went to the plan except that, after execution to display the Assistant Toshiba Upgrade I lost the Fn key and about half of the keys no longer seem to work at all.

  The only key I've ever used on a routine basis is the Fn + F8 option to activate the power switch WiFi.

  So now, I can not turn on WiFi on the computer.

  It must, surely, that there be a way to do it, but I'm not. Does anyone have a suggestion? I'm OK for now because I have a local cable system in the House, but once I get out on the road I will fight without WiFi.

  Before running the wizard upgrade of the Fn key grew up the key appear in the upper part of the screen and I want to surely I had turned on WiFi right here.

  The Fn key utility offers very little control of the Fn keys. It does not offer the possibility to do anything else than to disable five notifications screen for keyboard backlighting, power plan, touch pad and cursor overlay digital overlay.

  Any help gratefully received.

  Andrew

  > So now I can not turn on WiFi on the computer.
  First of all, you can enable and disable the WiFi using the function key, but you can also activate the WLan settings of Windows 8
  Key Win + C-> settings-> change PC settings-> wireless

  Now, you can use the cursor to wireless devices to enable or disable the WiFi network.

  But to get the FN button work you need to install the + Toshiba function key + Utility for win 8 and + Toshiba system driver + to win 8

• Portege Z930 - network WLan problems

  Z930 Windows 7 is 3 years old.
  I'm having problems connecting to the home network and I do not understand the clues to work towards a solution.

  Other laptops can connect to the wired network and wireless, but cant Z930, or down and will not show the home network.

  Appear networks nearby.

  Z930 can connect to the point of mobile internet access on phones, but that does not provide access to servers and network.

  Disable the Firewall Norton 360 and the protection doesn't seem to help.

  At a time and only once, I saw the message invalid network address.

  Logical, said the material is OK because can connect to the wifi phone.

  I don't know where to begin try andworkout why z930 can't seen to connect to the home network.

  > I'm having problems connecting to the home network and I do not understand the clues to work towards a solution.
  I want to be sure I understood your problem:

  You ve set up the wireless network at home (I assume you are using the WLan router, etc.) but you are not able to connect the Portege Z930 to your wireless home network.
  Is this correct?

  Since you are able to connect this notebook to internet hotspots (public WLan) I guess the wireless network for laptop s and WLan card driver are installed and are working correctly.

  Are you able to connect the laptop to the internet using LAN?

  In case this also not possible, you must reset your router and should go through the router options unique to ensure that each option has been set correctly.

  In addition I recommend you renew the IP address by typing this command using the console (to start the console type CMD in RUN)
  In the Console (black DOS window), you must type: + IPCONFIG / RENEW.
  This would renew the ip address that is assigned automatically the provided by the router ip address pool.

• Portege Z930 - FN keys issue - showing no no menu on screen

  Hello

  I have toshiba portege Z930 and my function keys worked until I installed YAC (yet another cleanser) to get rid of some malware, which worked, but the problem is that even after uninstalation, function keys is broken:

  FN + y/z which should highlith the keyboard does not work (I have installed what is called the "function key" for now, that works as well with the FN 1, 3 FN, FN 4 and 3 + 4 to volume)

  but others simply does not work:
  FN + ESC (mute)
  FN + F2 (eco mode)
  FN + F5 (control switch)
  FN + F8 (wifi/bluetooth switch
  FN + F9 - 12

  Could someone point me to good drivers for this? Thank you very much
  Karolina

  What Windows system is installed?
  In the case of Windows 7, you need to install Toshiba Value added Package
  In the case of 8.1 to win, you need to install the Toshiba system parameters.

  But be careful: some FN key features depends on the 3rd software. For example, you will not be able to use the FN + F2 if eco mode ECO Utility isn't installed.

  But why n t give you the OS at the beginning point of time until you have used the cleaning tool?
