Can I go through Satellite Pro 4300 with disk HARD mk8032GAX?

Hello and thanks in advance. The question is: can I upgrade the hdd by default in satellite pro 4300 with mk8032GAX model?

(Sorry for my English)

Concerning

The question is whether the laptop and the BIOS is able to manage the size of the HARD drive.
The mk8032GAX is a 80 GB, 2.5 HARD disk at 5400 RPM and 8 MB cache.

I discovered that this laptop supports these drives:
5,59 GB Toshiba MK6414MAP, Toshiba MK6411MAT
11.2 GB Toshiba MK1214GAP
16.9 GB Toshiba MK1814GAV

Perhaps also a 30 GB might be compatible, but to be 100% sure, a test is necessary.

  • Satellite Pro A30: after disk HARD replacing the BIOS does not see DVD or HARD disk

    Hello

    I bought a new Pro A30 of Satellite earlier.
    Shortly after, I noticed the system sometimes
    would freeze, with a rattling of the HD.
    A reboot cold was the only solution.
    I was told to replace the HD I did but the
    problem persisted with the new HD.

    I tried a known working HD and the problem still persisted.
    At this point, the warranty period has increased.
    Frost started happening more regularly, and
    now, the BIOS does not recognize the HD player or DVD.
    It starts and then try to boot from the network,
    because he doesn't have a HD or DVD player.

    At this point, I think I need a new system board.
    Someone at - it other advice or seen this problem
    before?

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - memory / disk HARD upgrade

    Hello

    Ive got two questions regarding the upgrade of this laptop:

    My units equipped with a 60 GB hard drive. What is the maximum size possible? What is the bios (Im running the real 1.9) support? These days this drives 2.5 "are available up to 160 GB. I could just buy one, stick it in and my uncle bobs? Or will I run in serious trouble?

    I would switch the system memory to 1 GB, so two sticks of 512 MB should be used. I could use all the modules, which meets the toshibas specifications? 200Pin SO-DIMM, DDR 266, 32Mx8 organization. Or I have to buy a special memory, which would be a lot more money?

    Hello, my friend ;)

    I think the 160 GB is a dream that I n t think you will be able to use this large HDD.
    Maybe a 80 GB HDD works, but I don't know about it Mr. I think you should test it.

    Laptop supports modules of RAM DDR PC2100 and I think you should use the modules recommended by Toshiba. The modules are:
    PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)
    PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51)

    By the way: modules without a name are not recommended because performance is not great

    I can buy this SODIMM Infineon HYB39S256800T-8A, and I heard that they only work with Toshiba laptops.

    They have been tested with Tecra 9000 and no problem, and with no computers Toshiba there are any errors.

    I have Satellite Pro 4300, they will work with it?

    Maybe someone a piece of support for a Toshiba for this memory.

    You will be very happy if someone has the same laptop model and quite the same module of RAM. Buy and test it with your laptop. If it won't work not return. End of the story.

    The person who wants to sell you this RAM should be able to give a list of compatible laptop models. In any case, I recommend you to use compatible Toshiba or RAM Kingston modules. Both are tested and you'll get a high quality product.

  • Strange problem with the module memory series Satellite Pro 4300

    I have a laptop Toshiba satellite pro 4300 series with 64 MB onboard + 64 MB Module and I want to upgrade my memory to 320 MB. I bought two ram of 128 MB each. I removed the 64 MB module and I put a 128 MB module into the slot (A) one, but I saw that the total memory is 128 MB again.

    I removed the module again and I put the second module in the connector (A), but I saw that the total memory is 128 MB again. After that, I put the two modules in my notebook (Slot A and slot B) but I see that the total memory is 192 MB. This means that it recognizes each module as 64 MB as opposed to 128 MB. Dose anyone know why this happens?
    And what do I do about it?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Well, I put t know why this happens. It seems that the 128 MB modules are 64 MB modules. I know that it of strange but I have only this explanation. You are 100% sure that both modules of memory 128 MB?
    In my opinion, you should check the bars of memory if they have 128 MB.

  • Satellite Pro 4300 series - is there an available wireless card

    Hi all

    New to this forum I bought an old laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300 series recently as a starter machine for my son. The computer is currently connected to the internet using 3Com Megahertz 10/100 LAN PC Card PCMCIA 3CCFE574BT with dongle connected through hub speedtouch.

    Can someone tell me if there is a PC wireless card that I can use with this machine without having to connect wires in the hub.

    See you soon

    Hello

    As far as I know, the machine does not support the Wlan and has not been equipped with all Wlan cards.
    If you want to connect the computer to the WLan router then I would recommend using a USB WiFi key that would be the simplest solution.

    There are different sticks USB Wlan that supports different Wlan standards; 802.11 B or G, you must choose one that is compatible with your WLan router.

    See you soon

  • Satellite Pro 4300 series installation of Windows 2000 Professional

    Hi guys!

    I was given a 2nd hand Satellite Pro 4300 notebook PC series of my brother. Its shows be quite slugglish (over the start time of 20 minutes). I think I'm a format and a new installation of windows 2000 (windows 98se running sound) may be useful. However, I don't have the original recovery disk, although I own an original copy of Windows 2000 Professional.

    Would it not be possible to do a full format and install windows 2000? Or would I meet problems, for example with driver problems, later? I know computers cell phones can be a bit of a nuisance when it comes to facilities OS!

    Any help and advice would be much appreciated!

  • Unable to boot CD on a Satellite Pro 4300

    Hello world

    I recently tried to install Ubuntu on a Satellite Pro 4300.
    The problem is that I can't boot any CD, except those made by Toshiba. In the BIOS, I select the option "CD-ROM", but it goes straight to Windows.
    I also updated the BIOS to the latest version, but the problem is still there.
    Then I tried to create a linux floppy with Smart Boot Manager but when I select the "CDROM" line, I always get error 0xAA.

    I don't think it's a hardware problem: when windows was installed, I was able to read any cd.

    Is there something I forgot to do?
    Thanks for the help!... Sorry for my bad English... .and!

    Have you tried to test with some other bootable CD, for example Microsoft WXP CD facilities?

  • Satellite Pro 4300 - memory upgrade problem

    Hello

    I know that the issue has been already discussed several times, but it seems that none of the solutions or suggestions posted earlier apply to my situation.
    I recently bought an old Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300. The laptop has a slot filled memory of 64 MB module of the system's total memory was 128 MB.
    Because in my opinion, the system has worked to slow down, I decided to buy an additional memory module. I bought 128 MB - module TOSHIBA PA3005U k and placed in the slot B

    I was very surprised when I found that, after the upgrade, Windows showed that the total memory is 192 MB.
    When I put the 128 MB in the slot module is and the old module of 64 MB in the slot B - the surprise was even bigger, given that windows showed only 128 MB.

    I first thought that the slot B is defective, but in this case, it would be impossible to get in the first place the 192 MB. Then I thought that the new module of memory was either defective or it was 64 MB instead of 128 MB, but this option is also likely, according to my observations. Furthermore, I checked with EVEREST software system and it recognizes the new module as 128 MB module, but does not see the old 64 MB module.

    The situation is quite strange. Does anyone has an idea whay happens?

    Kind regards

    Sebastian

    To my knowledge, the 4300 Satellite Pro can be upgraded to 320 MB max.
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=5769&ft=m&St=3

    64 MB module which was fitted with your laptop should not be removable.
    So in this slot ONLY this 64 MB module could work properly.

    I know it's strange but the computer world is sometimes strange ;) you know :D

  • Satellite Pro 4300 - keys pressed "automatically".

    I have a problem with a series of Satellite Pro 4300 keys seem to have pressed automatically making me lose control of the computer frequently.
    I thought it might me some virus or spyware, but I formatted and reinstalled the operating system and the problem continues immediately (even before you install any other software!).

    I think it's a hardware problem, because sometimes, even when I turn on the computer, the message asking to press F1 to enter BIOS setup appears, and this message should appear only if the ESC key was pressed; also at this stage of startup no software has yet run.

    Usually, I'm able to connect, use the computer for a while and then it seems to start by pressing the keys of way uncontrolled, causing the pop-up help windows, closing windows, I train, blocking certain keys etc..

    Has anyone else had a problem like this?
    Don't you think it's a hardware problem? Can you think of a solution to this?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

  • How to upgrade RAM for Satellite Pro 4300 Series

    Hello
    I own toshiba satellite pro 4300. He now has 128 MB of RAM.
    As it becomes very slow, I want to improve it with additional 128 MB.

  • Fully operational GPS on Satellite Pro S300 with F3507g card

    Hello

    Some good news. I have the GPS works entirely on the Toshiba Satellite Pro S300 with F3507g 3 G card. I think that the measures to make operational work on any Toshiba laptop with the same card.

    It requires new 3G Toshiba drivers for the card that exposes the COM7 GPS port, some trick with the COM port for the card out of the location data (this would have been done by a Toshiba application if they support the GPS), then it will work with any application that supports GPS.

    I used the land bridge to verify this works and this allows tracking on Google Earth, see [image here | http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/2262/earthbridgepd2.png] (note that I blanked my exact location because it locates my front door). This signal was achieved with the laptop near a window.

    What I plan to do is to make a small application to enable or disable the GPS receiver and will post some instructions on how to address all this, which is quite easy other cunning of Com port that I hope, I can make do with a small, free program.

  • No sound in Satellite Pro P200 with XP

    Hi all.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro P200 with Windows Vista preinstalled. I removed Vista and installed Windows XP with Service Pack 2, due to the incompabilités with some software I need. Almost all of the necessary drivers for XP (even a downgrade to BIOS) was downloaded and installed from Support from Toshiba web page. But there are still two devices that I can not install. At the start of my laptop it always detect "* Microsoft UAA bus driver for high definition audio *" and "* controller memory PCI - Chip for logical Cache Flash in Intel (r) *" as new hardware and they appear marked in yellow in the Device Manager list.

    I installed the last bus Microsoft UAA for high definition audio driver for XP from Toshiba and Realtek too... a lot of time and in different ways... Previously I installed the High Definition Audio Driver Package - KB888111 from Microsoft. But I still have no sound.

    PCI memory controller - Intel(r) Flash Cache Logic Chip: the same... tried the drivers the most recent Toshiba one Intel too. Toshiba technical support told me that this unit is ready to run on Vista and have suggested me to try with Robson drivers for Vista Support from Toshiba's web page, but that didn't work either.

    I googled a lot, searched this forum and called technical support, as I said, but I've not found a way to solve these problems. Really, I can't believe I bought a laptop that only works with Windows Vista, I resist assume this idea, so I continue to try and try to make it work properly with the operating system that I need and I have chosen freely.

    Any idea?

    Thanks in advance.

    You're on right way boyfriend, you must also install another patch MS; KB835221
    So finally the KB888111 and KB835221 must be installed before you will follow with the audio driver installation.

Toshiba technical support told me that this unit is ready to run on Vista and have suggested me to try with Robson drivers for Vista Support from Toshiba's web page, but that didn't work either.

    The problem is that this unit only works in Vista.
    The controller memory PCI is that intel Turbo Memory, also called Intel Flash cache logic chip also called device Robson.
    It's quite new technology designed to support the new features of Vista.
    There is not driver for it for Windows XP because XP doesn t supports the function of cache, it is supported by Vista.
