XP 32 for vista 64

My apologies if this is in the wrong forums, it was hard for me to choose the one which.

IM planning on rebuilding my machine and want to run a 64-bit OS. I am currently running Windows XP Pro 32 bit and I am looking to upgrade to Vista 64. Is this possible? If so I can use a vista upgrade disc, or do I have to use a full version?

Depending on which disc I use, which would be a quick run down of my installation? (or where do I go to find out)

Thanks in advance

Hi Douge489,

You first need to check if your CPU supports 64-bit operating system, and you should also check if your computer is compatible with the Windows Vista operating system.

As the 32-bit os to 64-bit os update is not supported, you must perform a clean installation, with a full version of DVD.

WARNING: After a clean installation, applications and data will be lost, it is recommended to make a backup of the data before any installation.

You may need to purchase a full version of vista 64 bit to install it on your computer supplier your processor support it.

  • Satellite L20 - drivers for Vista available?

    Hello

    I use Satellite L20 with Windows XP. Now, I want to improve my OS to Vista/Windows 7. I've seen several people have not found drivers for L20. If I install vista on my L20 (PSL2XL-01R007), the drivers will be available?

    Please help me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    > Now I want to upgrade my OS to Vista/Windows 7
    You want to upgrade to Vista * or * Windows 7?

    > I've seen several people have not found drivers for L20
    I think that it s depending on whether Toshiba provides drivers for Vista or Windows 7 for Satellite L20. These drivers are usually placed on the official page to download driver of Toshiba.
    Satellite L20 PSL2XL seems to be an Asian model, so I checked the Toshiba Asia page, but there are just available Windows XP drivers. The European page also shows only XP drivers :(

    This means that only XP is supported, but you can try to get all the drivers yourself on external pages. Probably, you will find all the drivers you need. Here are some pages where you can perform a search:
    [www.intel.com]
    [www.realtek.com]

  • Re: Satellite A300-1 b 9 - cannot install updates for Vista and IE8

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 1 9 b I bought 9 months ago. It has Vista Home Premium 32 bit SP1. I have serious problems with the updates:

    1 Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x 86 - I can't install this for the last two months. Whenever it appears that the installation has failed.

    2 security Update for Windows Vista (KB961501) can be installed as well

    3. my Internet Explorer 8 does not work for the past two weeks. I tried to download it and when I did, then, my computer does not restart. I had to use sans-echec Mode, uninstall IE8 to return to Normal Mode

    4. I also tried to download and install SP2 for Vista, but it failed.

    I am very worried. Please suggest me what I should do.

    Thanks for your help.

    I think that the decision of the antivirus program is a personal opinion

    I put t like McAfee and Norton because they need a lot of system resources and do a slower computer.
    I prefer AntiVir and Kaspersky Security suite. The two programs have good scan engine and don t need a lot of system resources. They are easy to use to use it.
    AntiVir is free but it s just an antivirus. Kaspersky Security suite also contains a firewall, antispam filter and more.

    It s your choice what program you are using. ;)

  • InPro Comm IPN2220 Wireless LAN Card - need driver for Vista OS

    Hello

    I'm new to the Forum and I think that it is just the place to get answers to my questions?

    OK, I use the laptop Toshiba Equium L10 and I just downloaded and installed the "public" version of Microsoft Windows VISTA beta 2.
    The installation went very well and it took about 40 minutes and considering that it is only a 1.50 GHz Celeron (M), which was very good, but I'm having problems to make a software/driver for my '' integrated '' InPro Comm IPN2220 Wireless LAN Card, so for now, I can not connect to the internet on this subject. (On the bottom of the laptop, it has ' FOXCONN T60N871 802.11 b/g W/LAN Card "which I think is the real name for 'InPro Comm IPN2220 Wireless LAN Card'.)

    I installed the software/driver LAN wireless from the utility CD, and although the software seems to be no problem, Windows does not detect the card and does not install the driver for it. I also tried Win Vista update, but nothing is found.

    Does anyone know ho to get the software/driver to install properly so that Windows Vista can detect the card and install the driver and software?

    If not, does anyone know of a driver updated for VISTA BETA2?

    I would really like to keep Vista Beta2 on my L10 so if anyone has some tips that will get my built-in wireless card works, I would be very grateful. (BTW, I don't have a 'wired LAN').

    Concerning

    Hello

    These days, a lot of users wrote vista and their experiences with the installation. As you know that officially there are no drivers available. I think that Toshiba will offer all the drivers at the point where vista is officially on the market.

    You can post on this tread http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=13771 maybe Brave will give you more information about the installation on its L10.

    If he chooses the compatibility, he will lose a little performance. So, it's not a good idea ;)

    The best way is to load the SATA drivers. It can also create a clean Windows disk with nLite.

  • TEMPRO does not work for Vista Ultimate x 64

    Hello

    I have a Qosmio F50 - 10K and I installed Vista ultimate x 64 and the Tempro application does not work. After I installed, I left the start Tempro button checked and when I press finish it gives me this error:
    "internal error 2753.
    Toshiba.UI.controlpanelapplication.exe ".

    Same thing happens when I uncheck the box with start tempro.

    In both cases, nothing is left in the system, no files, no regstry, nothing.

    Help, please

    Thank you

    Hello!

    I searched on the Toshiba driver download page and I discovered, Tempro is available for Vista 32 bit and not 64 bit.

    I think so Tempro will not work on a 64 bit OS.

    Bye!

  • Where to find TEMPRO for Vista x 64

    Hello

    Can you tell me if there's a TEMPRO for Vista x 64?
    I installed 1.2 Tempro, and when it's done an error appears on the control panel.

    Thank you

    Could you post the error message?
    Perhaps it would be useful.

    But as far as I know that one Tempro tool can be downloaded from the Toshiba page and I guess that it was designed for 32 bit OS.

  • Need of energy saving for Vista on Satellite A100

    I bought my A100 with XP Home almost a year ago.
    I bought Vista Business Edition and I installed it on the PC.
    I downloaded the vista from the support section drivers and install them.
    Everything worked fine except for the following:
    1 Toshiba power saver is not included in the vista drivers and the old version is not compatible with vista
    2 - Toshiba PC config also the same problem

    Can someone tell me how to get the new version of power saver and pc config for vista.
    my laptop is A100 (PSAA9).

    Thnx

    Hello

    TOSHIBA Power Saver for Vista tool is not available. All you can do is to install the package of value-added and other Toshiba designed tools listed on the download page.

    Many power settings are now part of the Vista operating system and Toshiba does not power the day before regarding the Windows XP Edition operating system family.

  • Tecra S10-106 - 3 G driver for Vista Ultimate 64-bit

    Hello

    I own a Toshiba Tecra S10-106. Due to the fact that Vista Ultimate 64 bit is much faster than Vista Business 32-bit, I would use Vista ultimate 64-bit operating system, but I can't find the 3G for Vista 64-bit driver. All the drivers can be downloaded from the USA in English and can be used in German, only the 3G driver is missing. Can someone send me a download link or tell me where I can find a driver for Vista-bit 66?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    You can download the drivers here:
