I have an odd error when "Trying" to install windows xp from my toshiba recovery media cd/dvd, i've running vista home premium 32bit now
I'm using a Toshiba Satellite m300, the recovery CD is made for my brand/series
Ive tried 2 different cd's with the exact same error
The error is while starting the disc to install it goes to the "Ramdisk" checky thing, then after the ramdisk part it immediatly fails(ive tried over 50+ times not a joke), it comes up saying Windows cannot find X:\BIN\TOSDIALOG.EXE then it comes up with X:\BIN\BOOTPRIORITY.EXE and one other x bin thing.
when the messages come up its just a black screen with the error in a little error box and when i click ok on all 3 problems it restarts and starts up vista again...ugh
When i insert the cd nothing autoplays(maybe its supposed to work like that)
I have posted this on other forums with absolutely no help from anyone,
I'm honestly unsure how to install xp, and my hate for vista is so great its unbielevable, if you say "Oh vista's alright if you use it properly" i'm gonna ignore the whole post, vista is NOT good if you work it properly, im a gamer, i love games, vista is not a gaming OS, i know someone with the exact same computer who plays games 20%+ faster then me, he even has a scan running at the same time and its still faster then my vista with every SINGLE THING turned off.
Please dont say anything about backing up data or how i should send for another disc, the disc works,i simply want to know how to fix this problem when trying to install xp from my toshiba recovery disc
If i have missed anything that i should of written yea....just say something please lol.
