    Older Toshiba laptop running Vista reset


    I have an older TOSHIBA Satellite A205-S5843 S/N 38189546K with the unsupported Windows Vista Home Premium that I would like to reset to factory settings. I have tried all the internet suggestions without success. Is the anyway I can reset without saving files and install a current OS?

    Toshiba Satelite Out of box reset


    • If the manufacturer set up your PC to run from a compressed Windows image file (also known as Windows image file boot or WIMBoot) and included the option to restore factory settings, that option will no longer be available after you upgrade to Windows 10.

    Upgrade a vista laptop with new install


    I have an older vaio laptop that runs vista but I it is not listed on the sony website to have been tested with 10. Is there a way to manually run the compatibility tool to see if I would have problems with installing 10 on it. I know I can't do an upgrade but thought I might have a play. Any help appreciated.

    Thanks

    Paul

    Older Toshiba laptop running Vista reset

    My Toshiba Laptop has ended up on the list of that can't run Win10


    My Toshiba Satellite L775D-S7340 was not on the list of laptops that could not run Windows 10 when I installed Win 10 last year. I have had to reinstall 5 times now due to crashes & corrupted files. I found out that my laptop is now on the list of pc's that can't run Windows 10. Is there anything I can do to be able to successfully run Win 10 on this system? Any upgrades, anything? Toshiba is of no help. *cry
