• Satellite 5100-201-size Limitation of HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a Satellite 5100-201 P4 - M 1.6 Ghz with 30 GB IDE HDD and 1024 MB of RAM. I use my 'old' Satellite only for music (the largest sound found on laptops!) but my HARD drive got a little weak.

  So my question is if there is no limit on the size of HARD drive for this laptop. I would buy an IDE 120 GB or 160 GB HDD at 5400 RPM and 8 MB Cache. If this is not possible, I can also take the 80 GB of HDD (another puts it on say works), but liked better!

  Thanks for your help!

  Greetings,
  Fab

  Hey Buddy,

  I think that the maximum capacity of the HARD drive would be 120 GB because the laptop has a limitation of LBA 28 bits. This means that only the hard disks up to 128 GB usable 120 GB would be the maximum. 5400 RPM and 8 MB cache are ok.

  By the way: it of Nice to read that you are always so pleased with old Satellite 5200 :)

• Satellite 5100-201: five keys: ' 9-O - L-.-Del "do not work

  Hello!
  I am owner of a Toshiba Satellite 5100 201. The five keys 9-O - L-.-led on the keyboard do not work. Is it a software or a defect of the keyboard control problem or a problem of contact on the map? Does anyone have experience with this problem? Can it be a BIOS problem? I have Bios 1.90.
  Can someone help me?

  Best regards
  Ulrich

  Hello

  in most cases, the problem is that there is some dirt on the contacts of the keys.
  You must remove and clean and check the connector of the keyboard.
  If this help not the keyboard probably is defective and must be replaced.

• Satellite 5100-201: overheating after several times

  I have a 5100-201 Satellite.
  Recently, a screen problem surfaced: first described images are blurred, then scratches appear, usually the screen collapses provisional modus. I noticed that the laptop gets really hot, and I thought it must be a problem of overheating.

  I cleaned empty the notebook, I even opened and checked that the fan rotates properly. Subsequently, the laptop worked once, the fan run constantly and the laptop does not get heated.

  The next day, the redone problem surface again and this time I had still a black screen. Now, the laptop starts normally when I turn it on, but I know that after a while it will heat again.

  Ah, I also updated the driver for the graphics card, but it did not help. Does anyone have a suggestion?

  Thank you

  To protect against overheating of the CPU has to a n internal temperature sensor. If the temperature of computer s reaches a certain level, the cooling fan is turned on or processing speed is lowered. Use the cooling method of the base configuration item in the Toshiba power saver.

  In addition, it is very important that you use Notepad in the right position. The area near the gates of cooling module must be free because the fan needs to catch his breath.
  It is important for the circulation of fresh air.

• Upgrade memory 5100-201?

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite 5100 201 with 256 + 128 MB Ram PC2100.
  Now, I want to remove the 128 MB of Ram and replace it with a 512 MB.
  But Toshiba support told me that 2 x 256 MB is the maximum for this model.
  So it is really impossible to use 512 MB modules, or is it only "official not recommended?

  I hope you can help me, the new memory is already paid and on its way to me... :-(

  Greetings,

  JJ

  Hello

  Well, as far as I know these modules, you can use:

  PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
  PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)

  And how you said the unit supports max 512MB (2x256MB). This is information that I found. If you want you can try the 512 module. But I put t think that you the unit supports this.

  I have a Satellite 5100-201 und I bought an original toshiba remote for the 5200-801. But it Don t work in my laptop, I install a driver? or it is not compatible with my laptop?

  Sorry for the bad English, I m of the Germany and do my best.

  André

  Hello

  When you purchased your portable Satellite didn t you get a remote control? If this isn't the case, then the unit is not ready to use the remote control. You can also refer to the manuals of s.

  AFAIK all units with remote installed a small application called controls. Check in Control Panel if you can find something like that.

• Satellite 5100-201 - screen is flickering and distorted

  Hello!
  I am owner of a period of 5 years old Sam. 5100-201 which worked great until today.
  Now, I have problems with the graphics card I guess, the screen is flickering and distorted and then I mosztly get a blue screen that says that the graph
  card drivers is running in a loop.

  I have a dual boot, so I checked it on the two win xp installations and it is the same problem on both, so it seems to be a prob. real hardware!
  So I think that I have a graphics card problem, but as far as I know, the chip is attached to the motherboard and it is not replaceable, is that at the time?
  There is no work around which I can do to make sure what is the problem?

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  See you soon,.
  Achim

  Why connection to the external monitor? !!

  > blue screen indicating that the graphic card drivers is running in a loop.
  The reason for this blue screen can be a problem of graphics card DRIVER or the graphics card itself.
  For me, it looks like a graphics card problem. Maybe overheating

  > as far as I know, the chip is attached to the motherboard and is not replaceable
  Yes, to you on time. In my knowledge on older models, the graphics card is fixed on MB and the entire motherboard must be replaced

• Differences between Satellite 5100-201 & 5100 603

  Hello

  The user guide is not clarify the differences between the models S5100-201 and S5100-603.
  I can work on them are different speeds, memory and hard drive, but what about the internal bits?

  I have a model 603 broke with a power control fault. Does anyone know if a model-201 motherboard will enter unity of 603?

  Thank you
  Pete

  Hello

  I am not a technician, but I found the info that these units have a different graphics card and the two can't handle with RAM max.

  Satellite 5100-201:
  -nVidia GeForce4 440Go 32 MB
  -can handle with max 512 MB RAM

  Satellite 5100 603:
  -nVidia GeForce4 440Go 64 MB
  -can handle with max 1024 MB of RAM

  I'm not 100% sure, but if you swap the Mo together with all hardware, I think that other devices should work, but I put t know how it will work with the BIOS. Maybe the DMI should be rewritten.

  There are little guys having very good knowledge on this forum, and I hope that some of them will be post here and say more about it.

• Satellite 5100/201: problem with the video card or overheating?

  HY,

  I have problems with video on a 5100/201 Satellite. It seems that when I press the left side above the graphics card or press a key on the keyboard on this side, the screen begins to be scrambled and vertical lines appear. To end Windows XP resets giving a critical error on the device and the video goes to 640 x 480. Same thing happens when you run Linux Suse 9.0.

  My question is what is the cause: map graphic damaged or overheating due to the fan not as effective as originally (my laptop is nearly two years old. Do you have someone be able to find the cause and solved the problem, also with the assistance of Toshiba?
  Any help welcome.

  Hello

  I think the problem on your laptop depends on the fan.

  A colleague on mine has a 5100-603 and had similar problems.

  The Station changed the fan.

  Good bye

• HARD drive does not work on a broadcast 2450-201

  I have a satellite S2450-201 which I can't start.

  Whenever I tried to start it, it returns an error message relating to a LAN cable disconnected. As it is not on a LAN I removed the LAN in the BIOS boot priorities, and then it would only boot from the recovery disc. On the running recovery disk, it returns the size of the HARD drive (34 GB), then 'number of invalid partition' flashes then through another screen before finally returning the message

  !!!!!!!!! ERROR!
  Extraction failed...

  I believe this means that the system cannot communicate with / find the HARD drive, even if it identifies the size of the HARD drive.

  If the HARD drive is dead, is there a quick diagnosis that I have done or there at - it another fix fast/good market? If not is there something else I can do with the laptop away to see to what extent I can frisbee by the window?

  Hello

  There are two possibilities; the HARD drive is dead and you need a new or HARD drive is ok and it of only necessary to format the HARD drive again!

  In my opinion, the HARD drive works because the size of the HARD disk has been reported correctly. But the partition on the HARD drive could be the problem.
  So delete all partitions, format the HARD drive and try to reinstall the OS from the CD recovery again!

  good luck and please post back your results!

• Lack of BIOS on the Satellite 5100 201

  AFAIK BIOS cannot be simply downloaded to update the BIOS. In my opinion you need professional help and you should contact the closest partner in your country.

• Satellite 5100-201 and HW-Setup / Boot-PW

  Hello!

  We have a 5100 (XP SP2, just installed freshley, pilots from today at Toshiba, update the Bios from today ' hui) where it it s not possible to access HWSetup or Boot password (essential). No probs defining a super-pw protect hwsetup, change or modify the settings. no error box appears, no error is logged in the event log.

  Is the question on this matter, as the get´s a new laptop computer and we won´t release the old with a password on it.

  so, the main question is: how to clear the password.

  see you soon
  Ralf

  Hello

  You're right about the ESC key. When starting press ESC button and hold the button. Then press F1 and you will enter the BIOS settings. There, you'll be able to create your personal password.

  As far as I know that you can create the supervisor password and the user using the Console from Toshiba. Start the console and go to the Security tab.

• What hard drives are supported for Satellite 5100-201

  Hello!

  My drive is making some strange noises, might he have one foot in the grave...
  Have the latest bios 1.9. and the original at 30 GB disk.
  Have a Hitachi 40 GB I tried with, but the laptop did not.
  So I would like to know what drives and formats supported for this model.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  Very strange did you use a compatible 40 GB HDD?
  To my knowledge, the laptop must be able to recognize the 40 GB HARD drive.
  As far as I know the 30 GB HARD drive that was installed is a Toshiba MK3017GAP and the computer supports a HDD of 20, 30, 40 or 60 GB.

  I think that these disc HARD must be compatible:
  Toshiba HDD2171B 40 GB HARD drive
  HITACHI G8BC00009110 40 GB HARD DRIVE
  Toshiba HDD2183B 60GB

  PS: The strange noise from the HARD drive could be the beginning of the end
  So make a backup of the data.
