• Upgrade the HDD in Equium M50-192

  Hi all

  I have a laptop Equium M50-192 with the HDD 60 GB MK6021GAS inside.
  Does anyone know if I can improve it with the hard disk of 120 GB MK1646GSX.

  I found the site http://www.storage.toshiba.eu and I checked the two discs; but I don't know if the MK1646GSX disk has a compatible interface type.
  I am confused about the differences between ATAPI/IDE (60 GB MK6021GAS) and Serial ATA (120 GB MK1646GSX).

  Basically can anyone tell me if the 120 GB MK1646GSX will work instead of the 60 GB MK6021GAS?

  Any help gratefully received.

  Hello

  There is a big difference between the IDE HDD and the SATA HDD interface!

  Equium M50 supports the IDE interface and only IDE hard drives are compatible.
  You can use a HARD drive that supports IDE ATA-6 interface.

  In addition, you should know that the BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation. This means that not all HARD drive sizes are supported.
  In my opinion the 120 GB should be ok but it s just my personal suggestion. You know? ;)

• How to reset my Equium M50-192 to factory settings?

  Hi, I'm looking for some advice on my laptop.

  My laptop is a Toshiba Equium M50-192 and I would like to reset to the factory settings (on the box).

  I was advised by a friend that I need a recovery disk, but I don't seem to have one. Again, I have everything that came with the laptop when I bought it and have the different discs that came with it, but no recovery disk and have not been able to find the information I need the user manual.

  Is there a way I can reset my laptop without a disc?

  Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  > Is there a way I can reset my laptop without a disc?
  It is not possible to reset to factory without reinstall drive settings. You have only one option: get Microsoft WXP installation disc and install the version of the OS.

  All the drivers, which you can download from the Toshiba support page.
  You can also try, it is to find if someone has the original disc of recovery for this machine and ask if you can get a copy.

• Equium M50-192 DVD & cd Format questions

  I have an EQUIUM M50 192 with program DVD + rewritable, but when dounlowding photos from the computer on a DVD in order for playback on other media, it won't work

  WHY?

  Hi Mich

  It's not easy to say why it doesn t work. I put t know what program brining you use and what DVD media you are using but it possible s that your use not taken in charge that the media or that you have not closed the session of engraving, etc.

  As you can see, there are many possibilities. I use the Nero burning rom software for burning CDs and DVDs. I also created a photo DVD to watch on the TV and it works perfectly.
  You should test this program. Maybe you're successfully.

• Beep codes Equium M50-192

  Hello

  I have a laptop Equium M50-192, who decided to stop working.

  I get 4 short beeps when I turn it on. The power led lights and fans start but the screen does nothing.

  Where can I find beep codes mean?

  Thank you
  Dan

  Hello

  It's not easy to say what could be wrong. Beep codes usually appear because the computer MESSAGE fails.
  If the Unit falls down the POST (Power on self test) beep code indicates which is originally the laptop does not pass the POST.
  The problem is that the bee codes are not standard and each BIOS provides different meanings of postcodes!

  As far as I know your device was shipped with Phoenix BIOS if you can try to google a bit for the Phoenix BIOS post codes.

  However, for most hardware failure is responsible for these problems. You can try to check the functionality of memory modules.
  Remove the simple modules and check if some of the memory fails.

• Equium M50-192 - startup problem

  I have a recently purchased EQUIUM M50-192 who developed a problem starting, a week after the purchase. To try to put the following happens
  Press the button power
  Turn on the light appears
  H/D light access appears
  CD-ROM flashes twice
  Then cut the power

  It passes through this sequence also if I open the lid, which suggests that the pc is in standby, IE opening the lid starts above sequence, as if you press the power button / stop.

  The same happens to a power supply (shows, seeing attatched and battery charge indicator) or only to batteries, also tried with battery but running.
  Have tried boot boot from CD via the F12 key and power at the same time but no luck with that, as mentioned above, I think the computer think it is somehow sleep and does not need to access the restore normal startup sequence. Can't find anything in the documentation re this implies a fault. Currently may not resume as collateral as abroad with out the paperwork he's come up with, for the next 6 weeks.

  Any ideas?

  Thanks in advance

  Hi, have you tried to remove the battery and then put back? Is also the adapter work correctly is the status light indicate a complete change?
  If you still not the laptop so that it starts then you don't have much choice but to the send it to Toshiba for investigation.

• Equium M50-192 blocks - BSOD THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER

  I have an Equium M50-192 and get a blue screen and an error message saying infinite loop.
  The microsoft error report brings up to http://wer.microsoft.com/responses/Response.aspx/11/en-gb/5.1.2600.2.00010300.3.0?SGD=c7ea1371-98d3-4da2-98f2-61636f184296#here

  Error message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER (Q293078) link - http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=293078

  I'm pretty sure it means there is a problem with the ATI display driver but maybe wrong - ideas?

  Have tried to use the toshiba site to download the driver for it, I'm obviously a little distraught that while I can download and extract the files I don't know what to do next in fact update driver.

  Can anyone help?
  My laptop goes down all the time thanks to this and I already ran the recovery disks, but the problem still keeps recurring.
  Its adoption by trying to play a dvd and I have not yet tried to play since this first error, but it keeps recurring.

  Any help much appreciated

  See you soon

  Hello

  I completely agree with Akuma. If the same error occurs after installation of recovery it seems to be a graphics card problem.

  Before turning to an authorized service provider, you should try to update the BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba site.

  If the new version of the BIOS doesn't help, you need help from the ASP. Maybe the motherboard should be replaced.

• Equium A200 Vista upgrade to Windows 7

  Want to know if it's OK to upgrade Equium A200 with Vista to Windows 7
  I ran the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor. It lists several Toshiba applications and/or drivers with the comment "we have no information on this version of the program compatibility. It usefully links to the site of Toshiba Windows 7 Upgrade and finally at this link.

  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/KBA9A02PX0000R01.htm

  "For the Toshiba PC models listed below, Toshiba provides support 'Limited pilot' on a new installation of the operating system Microsoft Windows 7.

  No Equium model is listed.
  That hell "limited support" means in what concerns the Equium A200 + Windows 7. IOW, is it OK to upgrade to Windows 7?

  TIA,
  Peter

  > That on Earth "limited support" means in what concerns the Equium A200 + Windows 7. IOW, is it OK to upgrade to Windows 7?

  This means that not all or no drivers Win 7 for models that are not included in the list would be released.
  There are two possibilities to install win 7.

  -You can do a clean install.
  This means to format the entire HARD drive and reinstalling Windows 7 on a fresh formatted partition or HARD drive.
  In this case, you will need to install all the drivers

  -You can do an update from Win Vista to Win 7
  In this case that would be installed Windows 7 over Vista and that provide a benefit. Vista installed drivers (not all but a lot) can be used by Win 7.
  As you know, many Vista drivers are compatible with Win 7 and it is why some Vista drivers can work on Win 7.

  Hello!

  What happens to an error you get? Please post what we can help you.

  To be honest that I n don't know what you mean with clip Ribbon keyboard but if the keyboard is faulty or something else, the keyboard completely must be exchanged. You are not a unique key or something else.
  If you want a new keyboard or other spare parts contact your local ASP.

• Equium M50-192: battery issue

  Hello

  Basically, my problem is that whenever my laptop battery is in and I also have the AC too, the battery automatically takes over from HQ if the battery is flat. Ive had only the laptop about 2 months and it started only recently to happen.

  Alternating current only also up a little battery, and then stops to load. And to top it off the laptop sometimes just turns off by itself when its only run off ac power. Worsened in the last week and now I cant charge the battery upward and the computer laptop is always just turn off so I can use the laptop yet.
  Before you suggest it, I tried to take the battery and the ac and them plug it back and also tried to use only the ac with the removed battery but there has been no improvement.

  It's very frustrating because I take care of property (I rarely move) and it has been great so far.
  I think it's probably a claim, however I thought I'd see if anyone knew what was wrong with it or if someone had the same problem and what they were doing.
  If anyone has any useful info on this it would be very welcome.

  Hello

  Looks like a malfunction of the accumulator :(

  Discovered some days ago, I read on the Exchange battery Toshiba voluntary programs.
  Likely to be affected battery Pack may not properly load or unload.
  I checked this site and found the Equium M50 on the list.
  HTTP://EU.COMPUTERS.TOSHIBA-EUROPE.COM/CGI-BIN/TOSHIBACSG/GENERIC_CONTENT.JSP?SERVICE=EU&ID=0610_BATTERY_EXC HANGE_LANDING_PAGE

  The affected batteries were sold in some laptops manufactured between March and May 2006
  I think you should contact Toshiba service partner for the verification of the laptop and the battery and I think that you get a spare part.

  Good luck

• Equium M50 - 192 battery is not completely charged

  Hello

  I bought a M50-192 yesterday, took home and tried out worked well. After awhile, I turned it off and let it charge up. My roommate looked at the laptop and decided to remove the battery (the laptop is not was plugged at the time) when he handed over the battery and turned on the laptop we learned the drums as in charge of 100% but it is false because the charging light did not have on the battery has been removed.

  Today, I decided to completely discharge the battery and load properly, but after 2 hours, it says its fully charged. In the book it says it should take 4 hours or more.

  Is there something wrong with the battery? If so, is there a way I can fix it?

  Thanks in advance
  Robert

  Hello, Robert

  In my opinion, you are the same user as 98% others. Please read s manuals. It is detailed describes how to charge the battery for the first time.

  As far as I know the laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB) and this module should be compatible DDR2-400 and 533 Mhz 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G)

  Check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS if it is up-to-date and check if the new modules would

  Hello

  A long time ago that I read in several PC magazines this upgrade of Vista can be problematic and the best thing is to do the clean install of Vista. In your case, all of us can say: delete preinstalled and install the latest drivers, tools and utilities but if it will help.

  Think of the new installation of Vista.
