• Satellite A300 - Win Vista instalation disk missing

  Hello world.

  This is my first time on any forum ever :)

  In August 2008, I bought laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 - 149. There was a lot of turbulence in our relationship, but we always went by them so far.

  Some time ago I added an additional hard drive just for the system. I did it just to have all important data in the entity. This extra drive decided to die.

  The problem is that there is no more the oryginal disc recovery so I have a laptop, hard drive and the product key for windows, but no instalation windows disk or at least file.

  Can you please help me and tell what should I do now because I can't undo what I've done already :)

  Hello

  Your A300 was delivered with the operating system from Vista preinstalled (recovery image). This recovery image is saved on the HARD disk. Operating manuals s described document that each owner of the laptop must create the installation of recovery disk using pre-installed recovery media creator tool.

  If I understand you right you didn't he create if it is your only error.
  What can you do now?
  You have two options:
  1 / you can order the original recovery disc - https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
  2 / you can install own OS version

  I have too many A300 and for three years I use it with Windows 7 32 bit. It works perfectly and much better than original Vista.

  In any case, you do need to make the decision. If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

  Good bye

  You have created DVDs of recovery following advice in the document s user manuals?
  If Yes use this support to reinstall the original Vista recovery image.
  Is preinstalled original Toshiba Vista or your own installation?

  By the way: I have the same machine and I use Win7 32 bit. It works perfectly on the A300.

• Re: Satellite A300 - second hard drive

  Hello

  Perhaps some may say where I can buy hard disk for the motherboard conector?
  I have place for HDD and connections on the motherboard, but don't not have hard drive connector.
  Camputer are 1gn A300.

  Help, please!

  Hi Lotus

  Toshiba offers Satellite A300 with one or two hard drives with two different mothers. Plastic cover is the same for both models of laptops and that's why there are two disk HARD covered and placed two HARD drive. Laptops without SATA connectors are not ready for the upgrade.

  No one here in this forum has reported that these updates possible if laptop doesn t have original SATA connector to the second HARD drive, so I think that you cannot upgrade your laptop with the second HARD drive.

  By the way: it's not easy to find these parts.

• Satellite A300 restarts randomly when it is plugged in power chords

  I know it has been on many topics and forums before but-

  Satellite A300 Toshiba registered repairman after only another technician claimed the question was the motherboard.

  So a new hard drive had to be replaced (it was old age) by registered repairer.

  Graphics card died - map is part of the motherboard = motherboard replaced.

  Supposed to win - phone to make sure everything is well = "there still the issue."

  QUESTION = RANDOM COMPUTER RESTARTS WHEN THE POWER CORD IS PLUGGED

  Don't forget not that the shop has been informed of the initial question
  1. phone call.
  2. by myself (wife) when I dropped the camera repair
  3. in the drop by my husband via phone
  4. by myself at diagnosis
  5 once again by my man when diagnostics
  6. by my man when he discussed the hard drive with 2 people at the store options
  7. after replacing hard drive
  8. by myself when new montherboard was "mandatory".
  9. my man at the same point

  So you can imagine today is both 10th, 11th and 12th, the store has been said that they do not listen

  I got to say REGISTERED REPAIRER WHAT TOSHIBA to TROUBLE THE PROBLEM!

  NOW for my NEXT question.

  On all THE forums I have read about it, I always come back to the same answer - replace NEC/CATHERINE Proadlizer

  However, in looking at the published images and instructions I now get the image that this is part of the motherboard also. This is why I wonder how actually to our brand new motherboard installed days ago!

  If the capacitor is part of the motherboard I think which was replaced why this question is STILL being implemented?

  If not where is it located?

  At our graphics card on the old Board REALLY dead?
  Or was this like the last technician and as demonstrated - surprisingly not listening?

  All related information (and directions to give the tech) would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  I'm really sorry to hear that you have such problems after Exchange of motherboard and I really don't understand why service is not properly check and test the features of the laptop.
  To discuss these issues is quite complicated because we can only speculate what may be the problem and no one can say with certainty why this happens.

  In my opinion all you can do is to do some tests and try to do a rational conclusion, but in the end service should solve the problem.

  Just a few questions about described:
  Everything is OK is when you use the power supply battery?
  How it works with power supply current when the battery is removed?
  Start the machine and enter the BIOS settings. Leave it for a while and check if computer laptop turns off again?
  What operating system do you use? Are you using the original OS that you got with the A300 or clean install of the OS?

• Satellite A300-15B - 300 SATA-Compatible?

  Hi all
  I only run Kubuntu (64 bit) for the moment on my machine, but I would add an extra internal hard drive, so to reinstall Vista.

  My questions are:
  1. If there is no problem with the extra hard drive, (the beach is empty then why not add a few outside more GB of storage?)?
  2. I found that good part of WD 500 GB but it's sata 300 so I'm not sure if my motherboard can afford it.

  If the above is fine, something extra, off-topic will be if I can still use my windows activation key.

  Many thanks in advance,
  Nikos

  Hey,.

  It s absolutely no problem adding a second HDD. As you already wrote, why not add a few more ;) GB

  General rule, SATA 300 (> SATA2) hard drives are not a problem. As far as I know Satellite A300 already supports SATA2 and if not all SATA2 hard drives is compatible downgrade SATA1 interface. So each SATA HDD work on each controller SATA, no compatibility issues don't.

  If you install Toshiba Recovery disk Windows, no activation or product key is required.

• Satellite A300-17N - t - it have port series and how to get there?

  Hello

  To help my studies in microcontrollers, I need serial port, but I did not on the Panel of my laptop. I know that some laptop models have one on their motherboards, but is not on the Panel. If satellite A300-17N is one of them I enjoy any help and instructions how to get manually.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Satellite A300-17N doesn t have serial port and AFAIK no Satellite A300 was equipped with this port.

  But I saw a few online shops, they listed an Express card that offers the serial port (RS232). I found one on Amazon:
  http://www.Amazon.co.UK/STARTech-com-16C950-ExpressCard-serial-adapter/DP/B000PE6G04/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&QID=1300736594&SR=8-8

  I think it would be easier and less expensive way for serial port. :)

• Satellite A300-1NO - Power Saver crashes

  Hello

  I get a fatal error when starting electric saver application, code 0 x 2

  I have a Satellite A300 1NO with Windows XP. When the energy saver tries to start it gives this error code and accidents. This happens with the installer to start too.

  Assuming that the cause is the lack of files required by power saver. What can we then these files?
  ProgFiles/Toshiba and its subfolders are intact. I deleted some files from windows dir, who seemed unused, and needles. for example. directories and temporary files. And I think, that it is possible that some useful files have been deleted accidentally.

  So, it is possible that the cause is missing some files in windows? Otherwise, I have no idea of what was happening here exactly...

  Hello

  I ve page no idea why your Power Saver crashes but before install you any what Toshiba you tools should updated Win XP to the current state, and then you need to install the common Modules of the European of Toshiba.

  Common modules is an essential component of Windows systems.
  He will perform the other original programming from TOSHIBA to work properly.

  So uninstall the old Power Saver, clean the registry and operating system with a free tool (i.e. CCleaner), install common Modules, and Power Saver.

  Good bye

• Satellite A300-23F: would reocvery disc format my HARD drive?

  I lost my windows recovery disk and ordered the recovery disc for my toshiba SATELLITE A300-23F that has windows vista.
  For the moment, I have windows xp trial intalled on my laptop.
  If I install windows vista from the recovery disk, it will erase all the data already on my hard drive, including partitions, or it will automatically move into diving C:

  Thanks in advance.

  Yes, the recovery disk would firstly format the whole HARD drive.
  This means that all partition will be deleted, and that means you lose everything that was stored on the HARD drive.

  Therefore, you must back up important data before you begin the recovery procedure.

  Welcome them

• Satellite A300 and Windows 10

  I loaded windows on my sSatellite A300 10 overview

  1 LAN connected only once, despite being the cable is connected. (wifi connection) Says he is disabled, but can not see as a network card or in Device Manager to activate
  2 the back of the fingerprint scanner not connect to public services knows that it is a device but no connection?
  3 drive DVD from Toshiba is a problem known to any idea on when it will be fixed
  4 have been blocking Windows betweeen flag and research must restart to fix. other will have access on the start bar but not windows or research

  Thank you very much for your interesting report.
  Former Satellite A300 was originally shipped with Vista and has been supported for Win7 32 bit. Note even for Win8 so I do not think that Toshiba will do everything to offer drivers suitable for Win10.

  What you can try is to use the drivers, tools and utilities designed for newer models and hope everything wil works correctly.

  I am 100 & sure old A300 wil not be taken in charge for Win10.
