I had a computer portable satellite of 1900. Now my CD player does not work as it does not detect the CD in the drive. I tried to uninstall the material and put it back without help. Any ideas/suggestions please?

I had a similar problem earlier too well that finally resolved. Now, I'm facing the same problem.

Hello

Is it possible to boot form CD or disc doesn t only work in windows?
If possible, that the drive is dead and you need a new.
How did you find the problem drive first?

    I guess the battery is dead! How old is it?
    The laptop seems to be a little old and if the battery has never been replaced, then I m 100% sure this could be a reason why laptop run on battery for an extended period.

    The solution is replacing the battery ;)
    Either you go to google a bit to find some online dealers that sell compatible batteries for this laptop or you will contact the ASP in your country and will be stopped the right battery.

  • Change the HARD drive in the laptop Satellite P10-304

    I bought a new hard drive for my laptop toshiba satellite sp10, can someone tell me were the hard drive is in the laptop, so I can change it as it does not tell you in the instructions booklet
    Thank you
    jm75uk

    Hello

    For some portable models change HARD drive is very simple and not complicated. Change the HARD drive in your case will be not so easy, and in my opinion, you should contact the service partner. I don't know how old is your laptop, and if the warranty is still valid, but as Tobi said if you open the Briefcase with laptop computer on your own, you can lose the warranty.

    I don't know, but the HARD drive should be placed somewhere under keyboard because on this model there is no coverage of HARD drive in the lower corner.

    Hi Bob

    Replacement optical drive should not be so complicated. In the lower corner, you will find a screw M2 ODD. When the screw is removed, push the reader and then you can insert if of the Bay.
    I hope that's it.
    Check the drive specs and order a new one. I hope that you will be able to again place.

  • What them to limit the size of the HARD drive on a laptop Satellite Pro 6100?

    I recently tried to install a 160 GB drive and had all sorts of questions.
    Thank you
    [email protected]

    Is 160 GB not a bit too much? Please note that this laptop is about 5 years old and new laptops are usually supplied with 120 or 160 GB hard drives.

    According to the specification of this laptop model comes with 60 GB max, but I guess it should be possible to use 80 or maybe 100 GB. I don't know it for sure because there is no precise information on this subject.

    Use the advanced search option and try to search for similar topics. Maybe you will be lucky and find some useful information.

  • DVD drive broken on my laptop Satellite M35x

    Hello

    the CD - DVD drive on my laptop Satellite is apparently broken, and I've thought about buying a CD-DVD external drive and would appreciate help.
    In case I have to re - install Windows, I'd be able to do this with an external CD drive, because I believe that I need to boot from the CD to start the reinstall, and I do not know if the laptop will "recognize" the external hard drive?

    Thank you
    Bob

    As far as I know external optical disc drive will not be recognized and you will not be able to launch the installation of the OS. To be honest I don't understand why you prefer this external solution.
    I don't know what model of laptop you have exactly, but optical drives for laptop are not expensive, especially for older models of laptops.

    Almost every laptop can deal with several compatible readers and replacement is very simply. You can do this alone. So if you want to replace the drive to let know us what model of laptop do you have exactly.

  • Hard drive replacement on the Satellite A100-049

    Hi, thanks for reading...

    Recently my Toshiba Satellite laptop has given an error on booting from hard drive failure imminent, I so bought a new drive of the same brand and model, WD Scorpio Blue 320 GB.

    On the installation of the new drive of the laptop will beep quickly several times and sometimes boots on CD or sometimes just beeps until I power off.

    I tried the drive in another laptop and it works fine.

    I tried to use the Toshiba Recovery CD to restore the laptop to factory, but when it loads Vista errors with a message like "this software is not configured for the material", or something?

    I installed Ubuntu 11.10 and it works fine, except that I get the beep every time I restart or power on the laptop.

    Can someone point me in the right direction because it is driving me crazy!

    Thank you very much!

    Steve

    Hello

    The sound signal comes from the BIOS. Usually it s no matter if the Linux or Windows is installed on the HARD drive.
    So according to your last post, looks like the beeps from the BIOS because of the new HARD drive.

    Usually the HARD drive should be compatible because the SATA controller is not limited to a specific size, so 320 GB size should not be too large.

    In any case, it would be interesting to know if another 320 GB HARD drive would be compatible and if the beep stops.

  • This HARD drive is compatible with Satellite L30?

    I managed to break (don't ask how) my hard drive on my laptop Satellite L30.
    He will have to find another.

    Could someone help me find where I need?

    Bravo guys

    Hi Matt

    Have you tried to search this forum for more information?
    There are many discussions on models of different laptops and I sure that you might find interesting and useful discussions on the HDD for L30 m.

    For example, I found this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=88214

    The guy said that a 120 GB 2.5 SATA HDD was possible.
    I think you could use a bigger HDD as only 120 GB, you can try a 160 GB if you want.

    Cheers mate

  • problem with cd/dvd on my Satellite 1900 303 drive

    Hello world
    In 2003, I bought a Satellite 1900-303. Recently, it's the cd/Dvd drive has stopped working properly. whenever I put a Cd in the driver, it assumes that the CD is an audio cd. If the CD is completely cd Audio or partially contained audio files that it opens the cd with no problems. But if the cd is a CD or software for data CD after having tried long time my system hangs. I change the properties of the Cd drive settings in the section of AutoPlay of music file to other options such as "mixed content". but after inserting the CD in the drivers it agains automatically replaces the file 'music '. I showed my book expert in computer system and ease, he tried to reinstall windows XP to fix the problem but it did not work. Since the driver did not work he used the external driver to install windows XP. but the problem has not been resolved.
    Is there someone who knows by chance that I have to do to get it back?
    Waiting for useful tips.
    Vahed

    Hello

    your friend installed the XP from a Cd MS or on the Toshiba Recovery CD?

    To my Toshiba laptop computer, AutoPlay section is also set music file and working properly!

    When this failure occurred for the first time? Did you use the recovery option of system SM at the beginning - accessories - prog. -Recovery system
    Perhaps the backsetting of your system to solve the problem!

    You can also check if a firmware update is available for your car! (If it's a Toshiba drive go to http://www.toshiba-europe.com/storage/index.asp?nav=HOM&page=HOM&frame=home
