• Satellite M60-162: problem gambling (game)

  Hello
  I bought a Satellite M60-162 to use for work and a bit of entertainment (including games).
  It happens that all types of game, I installed (Medal of honor, C & C Generals, Nba live 2005, MS Flight simulator 2004) breaks down when it is run (just click on 'play' and after a while, the game crashes). The installation program ends normally, but every game crashes.
  The only game that works is 'The elder scrolls III - Morrowind '.
  I have updated with patches - if available - all games without any profit.
  I also updated the graphics (Ati mobility radeon 700) driver and installed the DirectX 9 .0c. Nothing has changed.
  Finally, I ran a test for the graphics system (3D Mark 360) to check if there were hardware problems. All tests have passed.
  I don't know what I could do to remedy this situation.
  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Hello

  Believe me it's not easy to say why it happens.
  It could be a driver problem or a software problem (game). The only way to know why it happens is to test the device with different settings. Try using a lower screen resolution during the games. Try to change the game settings.

  Windows XP performance settings that affect the visual appearance of the operating system, most of the games have buried in their menus of Options graphic settings. The trick is to find them.

  I found a very useful and interesting article how to optimize the parameters of play for performance and looks. Please click the link:

• Random beep (1-2 sec) on the Satellite M60-182

  Hello

  Since I bought Satellite M60-182, I have a problem with a single long beep (1-2 sec) I hear from time to time. If I don't watch any divX movie to HARD drive beeps, but if I swith to any program or game I hear this annoying soung from time to time - a few times often (every 2-3 minutes) and one some time in the range of 10-15 min.
  never steady.

  This I hear however I cut his power.
  Is it possible that it's HDD, or do I have to pay attention to something else?

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  Strange noise. I read somewhere on a similar problem and the user suggested that this noise is coming from the HARD drive.
  We hope not, but maybe you will get a HARD disk head crash in the future.
  I recommend doing a backup of your important files daily.

  You can also try to test the new HARD drive and verify that the strange noise appears.

• Satellite M60 - 164 need Win 7 driver for Player DVD Super Multi TS - 632B

  I have a portable satellite m60-164, I put windows 7 on it and windows does not recognize as a multi drive only a dvd - rw.
  can someone help me find a readers who works on Windows 7?

  PLEASE

  Hello

  I completely agree with Akuma. Windows 7 supports and include clean driver CD/DVD from Microsoft. If the optical CD/DVD drive should be automatically recognized by Win7.

  You see the ODD in Device Manager?
  If there is a yellow exclamation point, remove the ODD of Device Manager, and then restart the device after restarting again the laptop must find new device and should recognize this.

• Satellite M60: cannot install the latest driver for my graphics card

  Can not install the latest driver for my graphics card
  Satellite M60
  GRAPHICS ATI MOBILITY RADEON X 700

  Hello

  First of all I'm really putting t understand why you start two topics with the same theme. It is often better to have a subject with good content and interesting comments. Am I wrong? ;)

  Anyway, in your case, it is interesting that Toshiba use adapted drivers because of the material. This means that this graphics card is not required to run at the maximum level. Material cooling in laptops is very problematic and high temperature can cause overheating or a material damage. All hardware components are placed on a small square. Graphics card produces a lot of heat and it is not so good for other material.

  When you use graphic driver non-Toshiba card is forced to run faster. That's any use of support laptop manufacturers don t of third party drivers. The fact is that physical protection is a priority.

  I didn t do all the experiments, but according to some reports on this forum, there is how to install the driver of non-Toshiba graphics card.

  Please check this forum and you can find a lot of comments about this. An interesting topic is http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=18063&messageID=66186

• To install Vista on Satellite M60

  Is that what anyone has experienced hardware problems during the installation of Vista on the laptop above. I have already increased the RAM to 2 GB, which is the maximum.

  I'm sitting looking at a copy of Vista and do not know to install on my laptop or home built PC, Help!

  Thank you

  Hello amber

  If I remember well satellite M60 is not portable to Vista and there may be a bit more problematic with Vista support. I imagine that you will have problems because of incompatible BIOS version, but you can check your hardware using Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor. You can find it HERE

  Please use it and see the hardware compatibility report.

  Just for example: I managed to install Vista on Satellite M70. It is also portable to Vista but Vista works well.

  The point is to use Rams compatible and not faster. If speed of the FSB 533 MHz is there is no sense to use faster RAM.
  "So we are going to discuss here on the best solution for you;).

  Compatible 1 GB of RAM for your Satellite M60 is with PA3411U-1M1G part number.

• Satellite M60-169: BSOD appears after upgrade RAM to 1.5 GB

  Hello

  Satellite M60-169 got 1 GB DDR2 Samsung 533 MHz RAM-Modules (2x512MB).
  Now, I have installed a new 1 GB DDR2 Samsung 533 MHz RAM-Module (1x1024MB + orig. 1x512mo = 1, 5 GB memory)

  The problem is: the system reboots before you start Windows XP or Windows Vista.
  Reinstaling 2x512MB Modules: everything works fine.
  Reinstall the new 1 GB Module: blue screen and reboot. :(

  I tested the memory modules with memtest86 Boot-CD and all DD2-Modules work and produce no errors.
  Why the new RAM is not compatible with the laptop?

  The specifications of the new 1024 MB of RAM is: Samsung 1 GB 2Rx8 PC2-4200-444-12-E3 M470T2953CZ3-CD5 double sided
  The specifications of the orig. 512 MB of RAM is: double-Samsung 512 MB 2Rx16 PC2-4200-444-12-A3-M470T6554CZ3-CD5

  Very strange! The RAM is like the original equipped with RAM.
  Is this a BIOS problem?
  If I don't just install a single module of 512 MB, the system starts without any problem. Even if I install only a single modulue of the new 1 GB of RAM, the system does not boot to Windows.

  There may be a BIOS Solution for this problem in the future?, now more installed new BIOS (1.60).

  BR Pappl

  Hello

  I don t think the BIOS problem.
  In my opinion, there is a problem with the RAM modules.
  The new module of memory is default or it s just not compatible.

  Perhaps the mix of RAM is the reason for BSOD interruptions.
  Have you tried to use only the new 1 GB module?
  Check it out.

  I have additional checked the Web from Toshiba site Options & accessories and according to the news, you must use this memory module 1 GB:
  1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

• Satellite M60 - cannot access the HARD disk but update the BIOS

  Hello

  I want to update the bios on a Satellite M60
  the problem is that I can't access either on my hard drive it still reboot

  So, first I want to try to update my Bios but as I can't work with windos XP I need to do it with a Dos command.

  is there any solution for this?

  Thank you very much

  and why you want to update the BIOS?

  Even if the BIOS is not updated, the laptop should work well and should start the Windows operating system.
  This means that the problem with your laptop is unrelated to the old version of the BIOS.

  Have you tried to check the HARD drive or to reinstall Win XP?

• Satellite M60-135 with 4 GB of RAM, is it possible?

  Hello

  I have a M60-135 with installation of 2 * 512MB RAM on it. I had bought 2 * 2GB 800 MHz RAM, but when I install them, the laptop recognize the 2 GB.
  I have XP installed on the machine. Is there a way to make the device to recognize the 4 GB?

  In advance, thanks for your comments

  Satellite M60 can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM only. Sorry, but you cannot increase the amount of RAM.

• Satellite M60-170: Express media player does not load

  Hello

  I guess I have a problem with the express media player on my satellite m60-170.
  I have inserted an audio disc or a dvd and the laptop does not work.
  When I press the cd/dvd button, instead of 'Act' as it should, it just support windows (such as pressing the power button), open the media player and start playing the disc...

  (The cd/dvd button is attributed to "cd/dvd")

  any suggestions?

  thanx.

  Hello

  Please, go to the control panel and choose the application of controls of Toshiba.
  On the first page, you have two options: CD/DVD and internet buttons.
  Click on the CD/DVD button and select the CD/DVD
  In the media applications tab, you can try to choose the express media player.

  Note: Make sure that the express Media Player has been correctly installed on your laptop.

  Hello...
  I have a Satellite M60 and all USB devices with microphone (webcam, VoIP phone) do not work.

  If someone could help with some suggestions, I would be grateful.

• How to burn CDs & DVDs on Satellite M60?

  Could someone advise me how to burn a CD or a DVD on my laptop Satellite M60-164. I can't find any software CD/DVD burning on my PC.
  Thank you

  Hello

  If you use an operating system preinstalled Toshiba then the Sonic Record Now! Basic application must be installed on the laptop.
  This software is capable of burning CDs and DVDS.

  But maybe you want to use another application of part 3? Been to Nero?
  This is a very nice program, and it allows you to burn different types of media.
  For example it allows you to burn and create video or audio CDs.

  It s my favorite.

• Upgrade memory on Satellite M60

  Hello
  I recently installed Vista Ultimate on my computer Satellite M60 laptop, it is activated and updated, but I think it is out of memory. I have two 512 memory banks and bought two chips of memory of 1 GB crucial to install instead of 512 banks.
  It is, I can find a bank under a cover on the bottom of the laptop, but no others, abouts where is it not located and how do I enter?
  I did a similar upgrade on an older model and have no problem with the work on the machine, but in this case they were both below and easily accessible.

  Hope you can help.

  Russell.

  Hi Russell

  If the two slots of memory are not placed under the memory cover (lower side), one of them is usually placed under the keyboard. To access it, you must remove the plastic placed on the keyboard, and after that the keyboard itself.
