Installing Windows XP on Toshiba Satellite L40

[Lihat Versi Bahasa Melayu]

Serial ATA has become common bus on all new computer system, like the Toshiba Satellite L40 notebook machine has using the "Intel(R) 82801HEM SATA RAID Controller" chipset.

To install Windows XP on this system, you have to press F6 to supply the SATA driver to windows XP setup. I manage to get the driver by searching the net and put in on floppy disk. Then I start to install Windows XP onto this L40, with USB Floppy Drive and NO LUCK, the installation was failed.

During the installation, pressing F6 will instruct Windows XP setup to read additional driver from floppy disk. Setup will ask to select the correct driver by pressing 'S'. Setup will display the list below;

Intel(R) ICH9 SATA AHCI Controller (Desktop/Server/Workstation)
Intel(R) 82801HEM SATA RAID Controller(Mobile ICH8M-E)
Intel(R) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E/M)
Intel(R) ICH8R/ICH9R SATA RAID Controller (Desktop/Server/Workstation)
Intel(R) 82801HR/HH/HO SATA AHCI Controller (Desktop/Server/Workstation)
Intel(R) 631xESB/632xESB SATA RAID Controller (Server/Workstation ESB2)
Intel(R) 631xESB/632xESB SATA AHCI Controller (Server/Workstation ESB2
Intel(R) 82801GHM SATA RAID Controller (Mobile ICH7MDH)
Intel(R) 82801GR/GH SATA RAID Controller (Desktop ICH7R/DH)
Intel(R) 82801GR/GH SATA AHCI Controller (Desktop ICH7R/DH)
Intel(R) 82801GBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH7M/DH)
Intel(R) 82801FBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH6M)

Then, I choose


Intel(R) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E/M)

from the list. Windows Setup can detect SATA harddrive and can continue to create partition and formatting until to state where Windows Setup 'forgot' the USB floppy disk and keep asking you to insert the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver diskette into floppy A:, (the disk still in the drive, but Windows setup could not recognise the drive)

INSTALLATION must be abort, failed!

Then, I try other method, which is required me to put the SATA driver to the Windows XP Installation Disk. It is called Setup Disk Streamlining. I'm using nLite to do the job and toast a installation cd.

Steps of nLite process;
  1. run nLite, Welcome Screen appear, click Next.
  2. Locating the Windows installation .. insert you original Windows XP Installation CD (which I use OEM version of Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2) to you optical drive, and click Browse.
  3. Pick a location on your harddrive (or make a new folder) to store your Windows XP Installation files befoe making ISO file. Click Next.
  4. Preset. delete all preset (if exist).. click Next
  5. Task Selection, Only select to options, Driver and Bootable ISO, then press Next
  6. Drivers. click Insert, Single Driver, then Choose any INF file... appear, choose iastor.inf from folder where you extract the Intel SATA driver. click Open...
  7. Storage Device Textmode Driver, click on Textmode Driver and, while pressing CTRL button, click all the driver from the list with the word 'mobile' There is 5 of it. Click OK
  8. then click Next
  9. Apply Changes? click Yes. nLite now preparing files to make the bootable ISO image file. When this process is done, press Next.
  10. Bootable ISO, in General, Mode section, choose appopriate format that suite you, either make a CD or ISO image. I suggest you make ISO image.
  11. Create a CD from the ISO, using your favorite ISO software.

I use the CD created in step 11 to install the Toshiba Satellite L40 with success.

good luck...

Best forex indicator

Best forex indicator

A maximum of 2 upper technical best forex indicators can be plotted at the same time while up to 3 lower forex indicators can be plotted together. Parameters for each technical forex indicator will be explained in the next section. The last part of the menu indicates the formula used to calculate the technical forex indicators. The traditional, last price, can be used or one can choose to try calculating the technical forex indicators.

Description

New best forex indicator (forex trends indicator) able to reflect the action of an EMA - exponential movement average value 6 displaced back -2 on periods ( written in probuilder language - similar to BASIC ). The forex indicator must show its value on the forex charts.

A few best forex indicators

1. Average Directional Movement Index (ADX)- ADX is used when we need to know the direction in which the market trend is going i.e. either downward or upward and how strong the trend is. When ADX readings over 25 indicate a trend with higher values indicating stronger trends.

2. Moving Average Convergence or Divergence (MACD)- MACD presents the momentum of the market and the liaison between two moving averages. When MACD crosses the signal line it shows a strong market.

3. Stochastic Oscillator- Stochastic Oscillator indicates the strength and weakness of a market by comparing a closing price range over a period of time. Stochastic reading above 80 depicts the currency is overbought while its reading below 20 indicates that the currency is oversold.

4. Relative Strength forex indicator (RSI)- RSI or the Relative Strength forex indicator is a scale of 100 that indicates the maximum and the minimum prices over a specified period. The price rising above 70 implies overbought while the price falling below 30 means oversold.

5. Moving Average- Moving average best forex indicator is the average price for a given time interval in relation to other prices during the similar time periods. For instance the closing prices over a 5-day period would have a moving average of the total of the five closing prices divided by five.

6. Bollinger Bands- Bollinger bands comprise of a majority of a currency’s price. There are three lines in the bands out of which the upper and the lower lines stand for the price movement while the middle one represents the average price. When high volatility prevails in the market, greater distance is witnessed between the upper and the lower bands. The time when a band touches one, overbought and oversold conditions are depicted.

Highest liquidity is observed in the forex market. The forex market absorbs trading volumes and per trade size higher than any other market. This liquidity and the freedom to enter and leave the market anytime attract investors to forex.
