• Satellite 2450-201: cannot use TV option after the new installation of the OS

  Hello

  I have a laptop toshiba satellite 2450-201.
  I've always had the TV OUT works well with my TV, use the right cable SVIDEO.
  I was able to watch divx movies in my TV using my computer.

  I had to format the laptop and installed windows XP again.
  After that, I can't use more TV-OUT option, so that the image of the laptop could be seen on television, I've always had.
  After that I updated display drivers, but the problem remains.

  Can someone help me?
  Thank you

  Hello

  How do you reinstall the operating system? Have you used the recovery CD?
  Usually after the reinstallation of the operating system from the recovery CD, everything should work properly.
  It is important that you can switch to the TV. In this case, you can use FN + F5.
  If it's not working so I guess that for display devices hotkey utility works or was not installed. Well, the alternative is to pass on the TV via the graphic properties. The TV option, you should find somewhere in the advanced options.

  However, check it and check if you have installed all the drivers.

• Satellite 2450-201: how to increase the video memory from 32 to 64 MB?

  Can anyone help? I looked in the Bios and the advanced settings screen, and found nothing to increase the size of the video memory.
  Any other way to find on my Satellite 2450-201

  Hello

  As far as I know that the unit has been delivered with the NVidia GeForce4 420Go 32 MB graphics card. This isn't a memory sheared graphics card.
  The card supports the own memory and not a function of memory sheared.
  In this case, you cannot change the value of memory.

• Satellite 2450-201: impossible to format SD card 4 GB card

  Hello

  IA´m an owner of Satellite 2450-201 and I have a big problem.
  I just bought a 4 GB SD memory card and Nice, it adapts to the side slot on my laptop.

  This is the first time using the memory card, so a needs-to-format window appears when I try to access.

  The window has the right information: 3.78 GB, Fat32,...

  I click 'OK' and informs the Windows (XP SP2): impossible to complete format (here is Portuguese, then it is translated into English)

  If the correct size is informed, 3.78 GB, why windows can't format it?

  My laptop is virus and spyware free (only 23 spots in the running and supervision), I have SP2, Bios (most recent) 1.50, SD my controller drivers is up to date (the last and the only one that was released in 2003).

  Also tried third party "Panasonic SDFormatter 2.0". He reports the (physical) unit or the mem SD stick is not compatible with the program. And the same effect occurs: the Sd device lost the nice icon and I need to remove/insert the SD card to see again the same story.

  Help me please, friends.

  Hello

  It of very strange that you re possible to see the plugin SD card. Some people suggested that this SD card supports only 256MB, 512 MB cards and more with no MMC support.

  I put t know if you have a format utility Toshiba SD card installed on the laptop, but on many notebooks of utility such Tosh is preinstalled and could be used for formatting of the card.

  According to some poster in this forum the Portege M400 utility format could handle 2 GB, but not sure about 4 GB SD cards.
  If possible, you can try to install this utility on your laptop, but you know you don't have much chance that it works.

  I think that in this case only an external SD card reader will help you.

• Satellite 2450-201: slow startup and shutdown

  I HAVE A SATELLITE 2450-201 AND I RUN ON WINDOWS XP HOME EDITION, I DID A REGISTRY CLEANER EVERYBODYS USERNAME USING REGISTRY FIX 5.5
  I HAVE DEFRAGED MY PC AND ALSO OPTIMIZED MY MSCONFIG STARTUP ITEMS AND EVEN THE BIOS UPDATE.
  THE RESULT IS EXTREMELY FASTER WHEN I CONNECT AND ACTUALLY UNDER WINDOWS BUT THE SAME OLD VERY SLOW STOP AND START TO WHAT I DO.

  THE WINDOWS BAR GOING ALONG AT LEAST 15 - 20 TIMES TO HELP START!

  Hello

  Maybe you've connected to some external devices to slow down the start-up procedure. You can also try to disable all the hardware components you n t need (modem. IrDA). Also check out which device is defined in a first start time (I hope that the HARD drive).

  For slow closing is responsible only running processes that should be forced disconnected. It all depends on your own configuration and you are using external devices.

• How to upgrade my 256 MB RAM on the Satellite 2450-201?

  How to upgrade my 256 MB RAM on my Toshiba Satellite 2450 201? Where is the RAM located on it?

  AFAIK, you can upgrade to max 1024 MB (2x512MB) memory
  You use PC2100 DDR - RAM memory modules.
  The memory must be located under the keyboard. Remove the keyboard, to first remove the thin cover above the keyboard and remove the 2 screws that are placed under the thin cover.

  But if you don't have any experience you shouldn't t do. In this case, contact the service in your country

• Question about DVD watching on Satellite 2450-201

  Hi, I have a satellite 2450-201.
  and I'm sure that when I had it first I could watch DVDs, s without having to start, only now, when I try this the computer starts completely before it will play, now perhap it did this before but I didn't take so long to start, because there was not much on it to slow it down, what I want to know is : is it possible or just my imagination, if not how to reset it please.
  Thank you in antisipation
  Pete

  Hi Pete,.

  You don't say what operating system you have. To watch DVDs without having to start you would need to have Windows installed MCE. He would use a small area of your hard drive to store the necessary software to allow you to play DVDs without having to start your main operating system.

  If you have XP (Home or Pro), then it is more likely that your startup process now takes longer than before so that you can start your DVD software. In this case check for unnecessary tasks or processes by using the Task Manager and I would also recommend spyware scanning, removing everything you find and run Defragmenter and disk cleanup.

  Hello

  You are right. There is no update available. At the moment where the device was on the market, the card 2 GB SD was not available.

  This device is very similar with 5200 Satellite and you can try to use the SD card of her driver. It should be version 2. 0 2. I really don? t know if this can help, but you can try it.

  Otherwise, I really don? t know what you can do about it.
