Toshiba Equium L300-146 VISTA
Hi,
one of my friend has a Toshiba Equium L300-146 Laptop. he was happy when he saw the vista which is full of graphics but help less. he wanted to install some softwares on it but I think vista doesn't like them at all. well he asked i tried my Linux to install over the vista and make it dual booting system. but what happens is that when I get to the manully disk druid I am said that no hard is found. I tried the same with windows xp professional no hard drive found. what i think is that vista doesn't like to go at all. please suggest me how to get rid of vista. and install linux or xp professional. thanks in advance shahz |
hi,
still I din't get any response, can some body really tell me that what can I do. thanks shahz |
try a live-usb distro and see if you can mount the hard drive
|
well thanks for all
Its needs setting from BIOS to enable IDE controller to compaitibility. and then you can install any OS. thanks shahz |
Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-1AM and I could install Linux distro's and win Vista with AHCI option enabled without problem. Linux kernel recognized hardware very easy. Not like winXP, where I had to enable the IDE controler to "compatible" because of sata drivers. So you can try to install it with AHCI option enabled. Good luck |
