Equium A60 and maximum HDD upgrade

Hello

I am very confused as to what the maximum capacity of HDD for my Equium A60 (EA60-157), model no (PSA67E-00500C8J) may be! At present, it has a 80 GB HARD drive, and I'd really like that up to 120 GB of HARD drive. Does anyone do this?

I searched forums and find NOT of DEFINITIVE ANSWER! I'm not a newbie to this and have rebuilt my daughter an A40 I E Bay and ask the same question of this! The answers would be highly appreciated as forums are not clear on this, and TOSHIBA have not answered the same?

Hello

I think that the satellite A60 supports an IDE HDD controller.
So if your computer supports one IDE controller then you might be able to use a 100GB 2.5 "IDE HDD

Satellite A60 is very similar to the Equium A60 and two laptop computers should use the same hard disks

  • Equium A60 - Shutdown, cracking and burning smell

    Hello!

    I have a laptop Equium A60 and today, while using it I heard a noise 'dry', accompanied by a strong smell of burning. The PC also stop and 'popping' continues for a few minutes.

    The case and the battery have been cool and since I was able to restart the machine and use access files, burn on CD and internet access so it seems to work OK, but my question is what happened? Someone at - it ideas, which went pop and caused the machine to stop?

    Hello MrBump

    I put t know how old your laptop is all why this happen. Please contact the service partner and let check the device. All of a sudden shutdown is especially the reaction if the unit is not properly cooled.

    To prevent damage more equipment allow control of the device. If the warranty is still valid, it will cover all costs if there is a hardware malfunction.

    Good bye

  • Equium A60 keeps restarting

    I Equium A60 and it prevents the restart.
    Turn on and get a blue screen with an error message, but nothing on the microsoft Web site.

    The CD of restoration I tried and keeps saying no device found on cd apti device startup. Changed ROM of dvd to a well-known work, and still the same.

    I know that it is not the disk hard drive that I took this and tried in another machine and it starts ok. I get startup toshiba logo and then request a password that I never used a so I have to hold the space bar to this make me past and then it keeps option safe mode, last known configure ration command/mode secure promp and so on.

    It does not matter what I choose, it is up to the same screen or if I chose to stop automatic reboot, then it stops on the blue screen.

    Cannot access the dvd rom drive cannot use the recovery disc.

    Hello

    Well, it of a very sad and to be honest a strange story.
    First it s very strange a window (maybe a HDD password) appears and asks you the password.
    Second, a BSOD appears. This BSOD is mainly the problem of equipment.

    But as you know, it s is not easy to say what's wrong exactly with no detailed Diagnostics.
    So what to do?  :|

    I think you ve got a great choice. I recommend you contact the ASP in your country for a control of the laptop.

    Best regards and good luck buddy

  • Equium A60: USB Hub problems

    I have an Equium A60 and that you just bought a USB 2.0 with 4 ports hub, but it is not recognized when plugged into one of the usb ports
    It causes also the PC hang on shutdown and startup
    Hass someone at - it had similar problems

    Hello

    As far as I know for some USB hubs, it is necessary to install a software that can help to use correctly. Some of them are plug and play devices and there is no need to install any additional software.

    I use Satellite 1900 and also have USB hub and it works correctly. In my case, it was necessary to install the driver before the hub is connected. A demon of the mine has Belkin hub and in his case, the driver has been installed after that the laptop has recognized a new hardware component.

    All this is based on the producer of hub. I hope you have some instructions how to connect the hub to the laptop on the right feel.

  • Equium A60: Need new LCD

    Hello world

    There, someone can help me.
    I have a laptop Equium A60 and my daughter broke the LCD screen.

    Does anyone know where I can get a new l15"cover or the LCD screen and about how much it costs?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Each part can be ordered from the ASP in your country. But be aware that a new LCD costs a small fortune.
    The LCD screen and the motherboard are the more expensive laptop parts. I think that you have spent about $ 300 for a new game.

    Then maybe a second hand LCD might be a better solution.
