• Replace the drive DVD/CD-RW on my Satellite Pro A40

  Hello

  Does anyone know if a Toshiba DVD/CD-RW drive with model number SD-R2412 will be compatible with my Satellite Pro A40? If not, anyone know where I could find? Some muggins broke the CD drive on my laptop by bumping the case off a cargo cover. As a result, I can't claim on the warranty... statement of accidental damage... bah. :-(

  A friend of mine, think the new drive can need CSEL or M/S setting... What is it exactly and I need for an A40 Pro Sat? The laptop model number is PSA45E - 0184H - EN

  Thank you!!

  Hello

  Sorry, but I can't tell you which model will fit your laptop because there is not a public document on this subject. I know that your drive is set up and if the warranty is still valid you should not o alone because you can lose your warranty. I also found information that your device may also use a DVD-R, - RW drive. These types of information have all authorized partners. Try to contact them. I'm sure they can give you correct information on this subject.

  Good bye

• Satellite P10-304-DVD-ROM/CD-RW questions!

  Hello world

  I own one of the original computers Satellite P10-304, which has a DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive. For these last months, we have one or two problems with that. It was a little skittish in which CD it reads, but in the last days he almost completely stopped read correctly (audio/data) CD / DVDs. He doesn't seem to know they are there. However, the Player opens and runs well, as if it were playing the CD, but nothing happens on the PC.

  Curiously, I then looked on the list of the system, and the DVD-ROM/CD-RW driver had an excalamation mark. Even more curiously, the pilot was called TOSIICA! DWD something or other, when I'm sure it should have been DVD TOSHIBA etc.etc. Following the instructions, I uninstalled and then tried to reinstall, but it does not appear now when I try to add hardware.

  Confusing.

  I would be very grateful if anyone has any suggestions?

  See you soon,.

  Ian.

  Hello

  It looks like a car damage registry entry.
  But that is only my suggestion. The other possibility is broken (lens calibration problem) by car.
  You say that you have already removed the drive from the Device Manager, but the peut t OS recognizes the drive again. Well, in this case one of the possibilities is to use the System Restore tool or retrieve the device with the recovery CD.
  But if the drive is broken recovery procedure doesn t help. In this case, only the replacement of the drive can solve this problem.

• What internal DVD +/-RW will work with my Satellite P10-304

  Can someone give me an answer to what internal DVD +/-RW will work with my Satellite P10-304.

  I said a CSD-6012 or DVD +/-RW UJ-820 might work.

  Help, please

  Thank you

  Hello

  Have you checked the manual of the Satellite P10?
  Sometimes, compatible CD/DVD players are in the user manual that must be installed on your laptop.
  If you n t have the user manual, then you can download from the Toshiba page.

  However, if you don't get the right info in the user's manual then I would recommend contacting the ASP in your country for details.
  Usually, you can order a player taken in charge of these guys here.

  It is important that you know which drives are compatible because of the different master\slave\c-salt settings.

  Bye and good luck

• Help with the driver DvD Ram for satellite P10

  On my laptop (satellite p10) is Windows 2000 Professional running, but the driver DVD Ram of the Toshiba Homepage does not...
  Where can I get a driver that works on my laptop?

  Hi Val,

  The correct driver for your laptop running Wnidows 2000 should be version 3.0.8.0 and is available for download from the Web from Toshiba website.

  I presume that it is the one that you tried, so I don't know what you mean when you say that "it doesn't."

• Satellite P10 304 BIOS does not detect HARD and CDROM drive

  My HDD p10-304 has recently failed.
  I bought a new 60 GB western digital 2.5 drive "and installed today.

  At startup, the BIOS does not detect the drive, but also, it does not detect the CD-ROM drive.
  This makes me think that maybe it's not the player after all, maybe the onboard IDE / motherboard.

  I'm kinda stuck, so it's a new drive should work fine, and I have no way to test the motherboard.

  The only difference is that the insulation on the original drive sleeve should be reduced by half.
  The bit important (low, where the circuits would otherwise affect metal) is always there, it is the
  Few albums I had to remove but that should be no problem.

  Someone at - it suggestions?

  Thank you, Stu.

  Hello

  What happens if the HARD drive is not connected to the motherboard? The BIOS recognize the CD/DVD drive correctly?

  You bought the HARD drive compatible? To my knowledge the Mobile supports a HARD drive with interface IDE (ATA-5) increased.

  But as you said possibly the motherboard failures and he would be advised to contact the technician during a particular test

• Satellite P10-304 - update Windows 7 problem

  I have a Satellite P10 304 to 2003 which has Windows XP, but I need to update for obvious reasons. I bought a copy of Windows 7 (32 bit) and installed without any installation problem, however I can't update Windows.

  I reinstalled, deleted the hard drive and reinstalled again. Tried the stop and start the Windows Update utility.
  Downloaded the stand-alone Windows Update.

  Updated the BIOS to V2.0 and downloaded the Toshiba Service Station application (who says no update is necessary).
  All this without success.

  My hopes were raised when I saw that the Station Service for Windows 7 32 bit software was available for the P10 304 but I am now at a loss.

  Anyone know if this laptop can be upgraded to Windows 7 and how to get updates of work?

  Help is welcome.

  Peter

  I'm sure that installation of Windows 7 update problems are not specific to Toshiba problems even if you use the Toshiba laptop.

  From my point of few, you should check the Microsoft support pages to find the solution.
  For example this:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/w...#1TC=Windows-7

  Just a tip: I had some problems in the past to install updates because of the antirust software. He locked the installation of some essential updates and after you disable temporal, updates could be installed...
  Missing Service Packs might concern the single installation of patches.

• Recovery disk does not work on Satellite Pro P10-304

  A few days ago my Satellite P10-304 is not start, so I used recovery CD and got the machine works like new.
  Yesterday it wouldn't boot.
  Some thing on an ethernet cable unplugged error message, so I tried recovery CD because there is no data to lose.
  It won't work, to come up with an error message "GDISK (E) no such fixed disk - 1" then "error number 11030, invalid destination drive.

  Can anyone help me to get it booted/recovered please?
  I'm not fussed on something special for this old laptop, just a second computer for the kids to do their homework on.

  Hmm. sounds like a HARD drive failure
  Have you checked if the HARD drive has been recognized in the BIOS?

  > Something on an Ethernet cable unplugged error message.
  I guess you get an error PXE - E61 starting at startup.
  This message appears if the laptop tries to boot from LAN.

  This could happen if there are no other sources of boot as HARD drive, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and well thanks. A response as soon as possible would be great, thanks in advance.

  James

  I am sorry to say that it resembles a discarded HARD drive.

  You can boot from a floppy drive and see the HARD drive at all. If you can, then I suggest trying to format the drive in this way and then tries again.

  If this isn't the case, then you should get a new drive.

• USB 160GB HDD - Satellite P10-304 doesn't see 127.9 GB

  Can someone help please, I bought a new 160 GB Seagate Momentus HDD.

  I put in a USB enclosure and connected, but when I go to Paragon Disk Copy he can see a disc unformatted 127.9 GB.

  If I right click on 'My Computer' and use 'Manage', it says I have a unknown 128 GB drive connected.

  I updated my BIOS to the latest available from Toshiba (2, 00 - WIN) dated 27/04/06 (on the Toshiba site "last updated on 27/04/06"). However, in the information system, he says: "BIOS Version/Date TOSHIBA V2.00, 28/12/2004", correct version but date looks old? on the site Web of Toshiba the last BIOS (V1.60) is listed as: last modification 15/12/05?

  Does anyone know if the Bios allows more than 128 GB of disks?

  If the answer is no, what are my options? If I go ahead and copy the disk it will work as usual, but as a 128 MB drive? Later if a new Bios is published, allowing disks of large capacity will be the full space available or should I take a disc image, reformat the hard disk and then copy the image (only have a record of this great would mean that I have to use another PC to achieve this).

  Its a real pain, ideas or thoughts?

  Many thanks Tony

  Laptop: P10-304 running XP Home.

  Hello

  I m not 100% sure if it has something to do with the BIOS.
  I think that it s simply a matter of calculation.
  HDD dealers calculate with 1000 and they must calculate with 1024. But the difference is still to oversized

  Please also check the size of the HARD drive in the other sense. After the fixing of the external HARD drive, you could right click on the HARD drive and check the properties.

  BIOS:
  Y, please read the more info section. You'll find info that the 1.60 BIOS update is only for the satellite P10 series models that contain "PSP13E" or "PSP16E" in the model number and version 2.0 of the BIOS update is only for the satellite P10 series models that contain "PSP10E" in the model number.

• Want to upgrade RAM HDD & on Satellite P10 - 304

  Help, please

  I have a Satellite P10-304. There is only a tiny 256 RAM and 30 GB hard drive.
  Can I put both?

  I was looking to upgrade to 2 GB ram at least and 120 to 160 GB of hard drive.
  Looked at the pc world, I know not which is compatible with mine.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Of course you can upgrade this P10.

  The RAM can be upgraded up to 2 GB and you use PC2100 DDR - RAM modules.

  I think that the laptop supports the HDD IDE ATA-5 and in my opinion, you would be able to update with 100 GB or 120 GB HDD

• Satellite P10-304: the problem writing and erasing CD - RW discs

  Some need help pls. I own a Toshiba satellite P10-304 with a combo player SD-R2412 installed. When I try to burn a new CD - RW, it does ok, but wouldn't allow no other written on the same CD in another session. The written CD - RW is then recognized as a CD-ROM. In addition, it is not possible to erase the cd - rw usinig this player. When I take the cd written for my laptop office of deletion, as it's done with success and my toshiba can then burn again. Any ideas on what to do?

  Additional information: laptop computer came bundled with "drag n dro cd" but I had to install Roxio and even tried the cd writing software provided with windows XP are done everything to nothing. I checked the 'advanced system info-error log' and the report there is 'the device, \Device\CdRom0, has a bad block'; I don't know what that means.

  Cheers.

  Hello

  In my opinion, it's probably caused by software. In my opinion, you should remove all burning software and verify all burning functions with windows option. After deleting some software, it can happen that, in the registry editor it is a lot of waste that will not be removed completely.

  In any case, delete all the burning software, and you can also try to remove the device from Device Manager DVD. Restart the laptop and DVD should be detected and installed correctly. Try using the option of engraving of Windows and if there is still problem writing once again please.
