NB100 not booting?
Posted: 09-May-2011 21:52

When I switch it on it goes to the Toshiba logo where you can press f2 or f12 when that go's it shows a small curser in the top left hand corner then nothing, it has the sata h/d so I got my external dvd drive and tried to reload win xp pro it will go through the procedure of loading the drivers then when it try's to start windows it hangs for a min or 2 then does the blue screen!, Could it be that xp is not seeing the H/D as I have seen in a post or could it be a graphics problem any help will be greatly apreciated. I do not have the back up software I used an xp pro oem disc.

Many thanks in advance.

Regards, Wayne..

Well it seems that loading XP does not see the H/D I tried with vista and it loaded and is working but I can;t find any drivers for it!

Win XP and Win 7 drivers are available for the NB100.
Vista is past… Win 7 is the best OS which have been released by MS… I recommend using Win 7 instead of Vista…
However, you can also try to use Win 7 drivers on Vista OS… in some cases it works…

Hi, Thanks for the advice all I have to do now is get a win 7 O/S for it, will it work ok with just the 1gb ram?

Many thanks, Wayne

I think so. What you can also do is RAM upgrade to increase netbook’s performance.
