Toshiba Satellite Laptop PCI / When Upgrading To WIndows 2000
May 7, 2006
I am trying to upgrade my laptop to Windows 2000. Once the OS was loaded I have two PCI slots not not recognized. I tried to put a Netgear Card into the slot and it did not work so I went to Device Manager. It gave me a PCI ?. I dont know where to get a driver for the PCI slots because I dont know there names. What do I do?

The computer has no driver cd with it a had to look for drivers on Toshiba support pages. I found the drivers that are supposed to work but still the sound is not working (seems like everything else does).I've tried both kinds of drivers that are available one was Realtek AC 97 something and the other one Sound MAX something none of them works anyway.

When I turn on the machine, the screen stay blank, no bios display, no windows boot logo, but the power light and hdd light flash away, AND once its up to the Welcome screen, the display kicks in and no further problems.She tells me it once did show a bios and Windows boot screen, and I can't seem to work out whats going on to blank the screen during this time. I can't even F2/F12 to a visible bios setup to see if its a setting, but I know its going in, because it stay blank forever

Toshiba Laptop My buddy just came over and has his Toshiba Laptop and it is having a blue screen stop error. Wanna see if we can get some help.He has windows 2000.you turn it on and it goes through every thing and then you put your password in and get to the desk top and all that is ok, when you click to get on the internet it would flash a blue screen and then shutdown. I went into system and advanced and unchecked auto reboot so now it doesn't shut down but you get the blue screen and you can't go anywhere when it comes up.

The Toshiba Power Saver is set for the screen and HDD to shut off after 30 minutes of no activity. The screen saver is set to go after 10 minutes but after 30 minutes the screen saver stops and the normal screen comes up. I tried setting to a different power setting by right clicking the desktop and going to properties and setting it to "Portable/Laptop" but it did the same thing. Is there a way to fix this? My OS is XP Media Center and my Toshiba Satellite is a A100/A105 series.

Toshiba satellite notebook that has something wrong with the driver. When i go to burn a dvd now or even a cd it tells me to attach an external drive, or the area where you choose which location to burn to is greyed out. I can't seem to look up the model number on the Toshiba website, the number on my receipt is A70wb200e, while the number i brought up using the system itself is mfwt020acp08.

Laptop came with Vista, but I decided to put Windows XP on it instead, everything went alright, until the ATi Display drivers came in, since the Toshiba website doesn't have any XP drivers for this laptop, I've tried many many different driver packages and none of them have worked, the chipset is ATi Radeon Xpress 200M, even the drivers on the ATi website for that chipset for XP wouldn't work. What could be going on and can it be fixed?

I have Windows XP Home Edition on a Toshiba Satellite A35-S159. When I open My Computer, there is a category named Other and under it there is a hard disk icon I think with a red circle over it. In the red circle is a white question mark. I have tried to use disk manager to delete it but it does not show up there. I have also tried using partition magic t delete it but it doesn't see it until I create a AF format partition. Then when I restart, it claims to be it but I still can not delete it in partition magic, on rebot, it says it is not visible and even when partition magic sees it, disk manager does not. Has anyone encountered this and know how to get rid of it. I have also tried ad-aware and hijack this but neither found it. Please help, this thing is driving me nuts!

Does anyone know where I can find the display driver for this laptop? I've looked everywhere but all the links I follow seem to lead to a driver detective download. Or is there a free driver scanner that could do the job?

I have a Toshiba Satellite A205-S5000 with Vista home on it and it works OK, but I bought a larger HDD and I thought that I would put Windows XP PRO on it, I went from a Hitachi 160GB 2.5" SATA drive to a 250GB drive, same Manufacturer, the only difference in the drives is the original was a SATA 1.50 and the new drive is a 3.0, BIOS see's the drive and the XP disk does al the usual stuff, then it asks if you want to Install windows on it, so I click OK and then it says the windows cannot detect any HDD and aborts the installation, I know that the 2 SATA's are compatible and the only draw back is that the 3.0 may operate in the 1.5 mode in the worse case scenario, but windows doesn't see the drive at all.

I'm going to upgrade from 2000 to XP w/SP3 and was wondering about "backing up files". I don't really have much, but I'm mostly concerned about program files (I can't remember which ones I've installed myself)...
I'm also considering "unpartitioning" and starting over because I bought the pc "used" and it has partitions all over the place.

I need to upgrade over 200 PC from 2000 to XP. Some are desktops and some are laptops. I need to do it with very little input from the users. I was thinking of using a email sent out that would ask them to do it at lunch or other sometime. I figure that it will take at least an hour to do the install etc, with no error. I plan on a test group to start with before I roll it out company wide.

I'm trying to upgrade operating systems and I'm getting the message "Incompatible Hard Disk Controller. Setup does not have a driver for a hard disk controller. To continue setup, you need the correct Windows 2000 compatible driver disk." The problem seems to be with my Intel 82371AB/EB IDE controller. Does anyone know if a Windows 2000 driver exists for this and, if, so, where I can get it? Iv'e scoured the Web to no avail.

The secretary's computer at our church is a 98SE machine; has never been upgraded. I'm trying to do what I can to at least get it networked and on line. My first attempt with a secondhand network card failed; the card didn't pass the driver diagnostic utility ("Lookback fail"). I picked up a new card and plan to work on getting the machine on line first, then trying to upgrade it. I've never upgraded a Windows machine before (I was dragged away from my Amigas kicking and screaming), and I want to find out if there are any potential land mines.This was apparently a decent machine back in the day. I'm away from it right now, but IIRC the specs are 233 MHz CPU, 384MB RAM, and 20 GB hard drive with 9 GB free. I just finished installing my old HP Officejet 5510 on it with no issues. My current plan of attack is to get the network up and running (pastor has XP machine; I just got his DSL service up today), upgrade to Windows 2000 so I can get current antivirus and Firefox/Thunderbird software, then see about using Ghost 10 to copy the hard drive over to an 80 gig or so drive. Hopefully this will keep our secretary going for another two or three years at which time I hope we can afford a new computer.Why not XP? Well, I think I can pick up a NOS 2000 upgrade package cheap, and money is definitely a consideration. True, we might be able to pick up a new low-end desktop tower for not much more than this will cost, but then we would almost certainly be looking at having to buy all new software to use it. Most of our present software, especially WordPerfect 9, should run under Windows 2000. I think.

I just ordered a new mobo and will be upgrading to XP from 2000, which is currently installed on the hard drive I'll be using. I know it is always best to do a clean install with a new mobo but by doing the upgrade to XP will I avoid the problems of putting an old OS on a new mobo?

Since installing Windows 2000 my sound is mute. All the devices in Device manager claim they are working properly. I have stereo desktop speakers plugged into the green socket on the sound board.

Im booting from disk as my laptop wont let me do anything, problems with explorer.exe is not allowing me to load windows properly.
It is randomly at anytime during the boot from disk turning it's self off, it is connected to main so its not a battery problem as i first thought.
The furthest i got when formatting was 98% then it turned its self off. I tried doing this about 10 times and at any random point it turns off.

I am reinstalling my Windows 2000. It worked okay before but I started having some trouble with some of the DLLs, so I thought a fresh install might fix the bad DLLS. It goes through the whole install process, but hangs up at the upgrading IIS section every time. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? I haven't changed any of the hardware since I installed 2000 last time.
