• Questions about Satellite 1115-S103 upgrade

  Hello
  There are Toshiba Satellite 1115-S103, configuration Intel Celeron 1500 256 MB 20 GB M6 ATI DVD - ROM 16MB 14.1 "1024 x 768. I want to do the upgrade and I have a few questions:
  1. What more powerful CPU could be placed in the laptop?
  2. What is the largest size of RAM?
  3. What is the largest capacity of the hard drive?
  4 could replace the graphics card with a newer version?
  5. an internal Wi - Fi adapter could be placed in the laptop (not to mention that in the PCMCIA slot)?

  Looking forward for your reply. Best regards.

  Hello

  Don't expect too much! The laptop upgrades are limited and it is not easy or especially not possible to upgrade the laptop parts.
  The Sat 1115-103 seems to be a mobile American.

  1.) usually the CU upgrade is not possible. Seems that you can only use the Intel Mobile Celeron up to 1,8 GHz

  (2.) the RAM can be upgraded up to 512 MB (2 x 256 MB). You can use the SODIMM, DDR PC2100 modules as Kingston KTT3614/256 256 MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM module

  (3.) the laptop came with 20 GB. Am I wrong? In my opinion, you can use the 2.5 ", 9.5 mm hard drives up to 40 GB.

  4.) graphics card cannot be replaced. It is fixed on the Board!

  5.) I am not 100% sure if the laptop supports a Wlan minPCI card slot but worth case you can use a USB WiFi key to connect the laptop to the Wlan.

• Graphic problem on Satellite P200-13Z

  Hello

  Satellite P200-13z running 32-bit vista - intel graphics software displays + does not work because of insufficient resources + other checks indicate that the chip has no allocated memory.
  Machine runs Ok'ish on the LCD screen in mode VGA base but of course, for many programs, it is no good.

  Version 1.7, nothing in there to allocate memory for the graphics chip - as in other systems with built-in BIOS system memory for graphics.

  System has 1 GB of ram - updated 2GB with no difference.

  When I bought the laptop H/d has been deleted for reasons of safety, replaced by the new HD & reinstalled vista from a recovery P200D disk then download specific files for this machine from the Download Center, am I missing a file important?

  How do I allocate memory of the chip or do I have a defective chip / / cpu / / mb or other?

  You can not install image of P200D on P200. Both models have completely different hardware platforms. Images of recovery are individual and model specific images.
  If you want to play a little bit and test if you get it working it's Ok, but you also expect that some problems will occur.
  All with images is not so simply as you think.
  Toshiba has designed images for the use of certain models only. It will be too easy to buy a laptop and use some images on different specifications.
  I mean you pay a license and install on 10 laptops. You understand what I mean?

  If you do not have original disk recovery facilities use bare BONES Setup with disk Microsoft facilities and subsequently install all necessary drivers, tools and utilities download page following the link you have posted here. You will see that everything will work well.

• Graphic problem on Satellite A200 (PSAE6E)

  There is a problem with my laptop:

  It is the Satellite A200 - 23d PSAE6E. I added 1 GB - DIMM DDR - II 667 MHz Hynix. Memtest86 says no error with memory after a night of continuous operation.
  About a week or two ago the problem started to appear.
  I play Lineage II Interlude (it is built on the Unreal engine). Problem may occur after 15 minutes of play, can only occur after 3 hours - no dependencies to intensively to play or time spent in the game.
  Screen to become as if I put its colors 16 color range and become like the interlaced NTSC video. No resolution and color changes help. Didn't help not leaving the game. If I restart laptop, everything is normal.
  No other game (including LA2-Gracia) or work or multimedia tasks doesn't follow this problem, only Interlude LA2 and UT game. Other 3D games work very well.

  The drivers are original from the recovery CD. Windows Vista HP with automatic updates is enabled.

  And: when I connect external screen keyboard 'falls' are statistically more frequent (10 minutes to 1 hour in game LA2 it uptime).

  What is this and how do I solve this problem?

  Please copy your answers to my e-mail address: foxsandy (at) mail.ru, thank very you much. Sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Russia...

  I believe that no one here can say with certainty why this happen. We can only speculate why something like this.

  My opinion is that there is a problem in the relationship between the graphics card and extra RAM module. There may be a problem to address.
  In the end, you must perform some tests to see exactly what is happening. Try with another 1 GB of RAM from another manufacturer, such as Kingston.

• Graphic problem with Satellite A200 - 13 M

  Hi all
  I apologize for my English, I'm not a native English speaker.

  2 months ago my laptop wouldn't start.
  I call the Service after sale who tell me to send it in for repair.
  No problem: my laptop came back to me, and it worked fine.

  Now there is a * new * problem (graph): sometimes, and I don't now why, the screen is dirty.
  You can see traces white and white dots all over the screen, especially near the icons.
  It's a little more difficult to explain precisely in English.
  I tried to make a screen, but the bug appear on it; I'll try one tomorrow...

  To make them disappear, I just close the screen, making my laptop into hibernation, and when I open it upwards (immediately), everything is good.
  + Damned, having bug comes back! +

  Someone had this bug?

  _Edit: _
  They have changed the card mother + CPU + graphics card.

  You have described the issue is really strange
  I can t image it could be exactly but if that appears after your GPU and CPU has been changed so I recommend you to contact the ASP again and wonder what goes wrong.

  I put t know if you use a newer graphics driver and BIOS, but you should check if the problem persists even with the update of the BIOS and graphics driver.
  But if you see any improvements so a call of ASP is required

• Graphic problems on Satellite A660

  Hi guys,.

  recently, I have had video and audio problems (had the A660 8 months now with no problems) and I'm desperate for help.

  Problem is that it... Whenever I m playing a video file downloaded on my hard drive of utorrent or elsewhere, also while watching YouTube or any adult material, everything that has the movement or sound like ads but NOT including not my DVD player (which works fine), he stutters and slows down, ignore frames, accelerates and makes generally a nuisance of herself.
  I've defragmented my drives, restored the system to a previous date and installed and updates for windows and other.

  The only thing that I n t do is smash or reinstall Windows. I haven t done these things because I n t want to buy a new laptop and I don t have the instillation of Windows as its windows 7 and is disc come pre loaded.

  Help, please...

  Hello

  First of all, I would like to say that you should read the document of the user s manual and pick up information on the preinstalled Windows, how it works with the installation and the creation of disc restore DVD.

  Please do. If something goes wrong with OS preinstalled or disk HARD dies what you want to do?
  Please use the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator and create restore DVD. I recommend you only use DVD-R media (TDK, Verbatim).

  Back to your problem:
  Before that you have noticed this video problem have you installed maybe installed updates or additional Microsoft software?
  When this happens you noticed very high HARD drive activity (HDD led flashes)?

  Please post your comments.

• Graphics problem on Satellite A110-228

  When you try to solve a problem (it was blue screen desk in front of my desktop wallpaper, which is a jpeg image and I could not change my wallpaper.)

  Although I can change the black background color, in front windows, the screen goes black and when I move the menu from top to bottom, left to right, I see the image behind it. I accidentally disabled the video card from toshiba.
  The result is that my screen does not work. The laptop works but no screen. How can I solve this?

  A VGA monitor in the external port no longer works. I have no cd of restoration (Restore on the C: drive stuff are) why not toshiba put this with the laptop? Where can I get it and will it resolve? Can someone help me?

  Hello

  > restore stuff is on drive C :) Why Toshiba didn't he deliver with Notepad
  Perhaps because each user can create this disk itself?

  But wait boyfriend not so fast!
  AFAIK all Toshiba laptops are delivered with the Toshiba Recovery CD!

  In the assistance of Toshiba, you will only find an option called Create drivers & Tools CD. This option can be used to create a driver CD, but not a whole recovery CD!
  So, in my opinion, you should receive a CD of restoration of Toshiba with Notepad.

  In any case all drivers and downloadable tools also from the Toshiba page. So if you want you can install XP from the original CD of Microsoft operating system and then could download and install all necessary drivers, tools and utilities Toshiba from the page!

  But I really don't understand why you have disabled the internal laptop display? and how? ?:| truly amazing

• Problems with the graphics card on Satellite Pro M10

  Hi, this is my first post on the forum. I'm not a pro with computers or anything... the problem I have with my laptop is similar to the one in this thread:

  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=26849&TSTART=0

  I spent half the day trying to figure out if my graphics card is broken, but since I'm a newbie with this stuff, I'm still not sure. :(

  This is what makes my M10. I'm trying to describe the symptoms that detailed as possible, but I'm German, so please excuse my lack of words in some places.

  1. when I turn it on, the laptop goes through the BIOS and give me scrambled BACK-screens and a slightly Warped windows loading bar. There is the consistency check, marked by black bars connecting the top of the screen down. After the audit, the screen goes black and nothing happens, or the screen of will just show me consistency check, do nothing. Be that as it may, I have to turn off the power (I think) and restart the laptop.

  2. sometimes the laptop goes through the BIOS checking & conistency with a few graphical shortcomings. The office is anything but shredded when he gets to the screen of the Windows user. The static method is if serious I don't even know where is the button turn off.

  3. sometimes Notepad starts very well, with the only graphic problem being the windows loading bar. When I go into Windows, the laptop pulls me a blue screen and stops immediately.

  4. sometimes, the laptop works fine for about an hour or two. After I rebooted, I have the same problems listed above, once again.

  5. If I open Device Manager and disable the graphics card, the laptop works very well. I have to lower the screen resolution and colors, but I can watch videos on youtube and everything. Finally, the laptop gets very hot on the bottom and the screen goes crazy again, so I turn the damn thing off.

  I don't know what that means! If my graphics card is broken, the screen should be all static, ALL the time? Not just sometimes more,... could sometimes less be some sort of communication problem between the graphics card and cpu? Please help me with this!

  Another thing I'm not sure about, even after reading the thread I linked above - can I replace the graphics card or not? Everyone said something different in the other thread...

  see you soon,
  Cozmo

  Edit: maybe I will add when I got the screen scrambled and everything. I installed Civilization 4, just to check if my satellite pro can handle, and everything went well for a while. The screen then haywire and I rebuilt my whole system, but display problems did not disappear completely. They were gone for almost a month, and now they are 'back' or something.

  Hi Cozmo

  I'm not a technician but here nobody needs technical knowledge to see that there certainly is hardware problem. I also believe that this problem occurs due to the graphics card. Graphics card is part of the motherboard and it cannot be traded separately. The entire motherboard must be exchanged.

  In my opinion, you have two options: either contact the authorized service provider in your country and speak with them, what can be done, or try to get the motherboard used. If you are lucky, you can find it on eBay. I already bought several hardware components for my old Satellite P10 on eBay.

  Sorry Cozmo but I do not see any other logical solution for you.

  Good luck!

• Satellite a20 s103 wifi problem

  Hello!
  I inserted a card MSI mp54g2 mini pci wifi in my computer Toshiba Satellite a20 s103 and it does not work properly. The signal level is very low, although I tested it in the same room where was my AP (dlink dl-624 +). I found that there are 2 cables inside the computer (Brown and white) and two locations on the wifi card (in the hand). I don't know how I connect them, yet I tried all possible combinations and none of them does not change the signal level. Also, I found that even though the antena is not connected, the signal level is the same.
  Can someone help me with this one? !!
  Please help me!
  THX :)

  HI TEC

  Connect cable o white HANDS and black to THE and try again.

• Satellite A660-1DW - screen graphic problem becomes faints

  Hi guys, this is the first time m write on any shape... !!

  Basically, I bought toshiba A660-1DW from argos 4 months after using it for 4 months VGA (display graphic problem becomes faints and a little colored lines appear on the screen)

  .. as I had the warranty for the laptop, I went to argos, told them the problem rather than send it back for repair they just have me service number customer toshiba...

  returned home rang Toshiba, they gave me a few REF a bit and asked me of the drop to the argos... the next day went to argos they accepted and send it to toshiba for repair... after 3 weeks they have me called yesterday picked up the phone after using the laptop for 5 minutes, same problem was there...

  then I took it back to argos they still accepted and send it for repair, but they also said if the problem 3rd time I'll have to take the same branch of argos from where I bought the laptop... .fondamentalement I bought in HOUNSLOW and I live in slough.

  the conclusion that I am crazy about her, here it is... TOSHIBA AND ARGOS these people got the WORST service you will ever find anywhere on the other hand,

  THESE PEOPLE ARE MUCH MORE BETTER THEN TOSHIBA because IF THE CUSTOMER IS NOT happy with the product they will replace or Exchange streight away...!

  Hello

  I had a problem with my laptop and the ASP has replaced everything for free because the guarantee was valid.
  The guys are really helpful and friendly, so I did a very good experience with the Toshiba service and notebooks of other manufacturers can also be defective

  Of course, there might be some difference between the different cases, but I can't say that the service is not ok

• Qosmio X 870 - 13v - graphic problem steam L4D game - black shadow on the light

  Hello

  I play this game using 2 PC Toshiba laptop.

  A Satellite L670-1KZ: 2.67 Ghz - Radeon Mobility HD5650 - RAM 6 GB i5.
  A Qosmio X 870 - 13v: i7-3630QM 2.4 Ghz - GeForce GTX 670 M & Intel HD Graphics 4000 - 32 GB of RAM.

  On the 1st, I have no graphic problem.
  On the Qosmio, I have a BIG problem with little light that have large black stain on it.

  You can see the 'bug' on YT here below:

  https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=c4E2DFScyfU&feature=youtu.be

  The configuration of the game is the same on both machines with the exception of the resolution.
  My drivers are up to date (GeForce & Intel).
  I uninstalled the game twice only = no results.
  Settings, to control panel Nvidia, I changed several times (Note option shadows cache) no = no results.
  I played with game config below only = no results.

  I posted on the forum of steam only = no response.
  I posted on the forum of Nvidia only = no response.

  So, can you help me solve this problem?

  With our thanks,
  Guillaume.

  You have any other graphic matter using this Qosmio X 870 - 13v?
  I mean other problems related to the image to appear in other games and other applications running?

  Otherwise I n t think that there is something wrong with the laptop.
  In this case, it looks like very specific issues between this game and probably the graphics driver.

  It turns out that you won't encounter problems under this game the Satellite L670 with ATI driver.
  The Qosmio is supported by the nVidia GPU

  I think there must be a link any between the nVidia GPU and this game.
  In my opinion you should look for the solution in the steam forums or nvidia even if you have not received answer yet.

• Need info on GPU on Satellite A20-S103

  Thank you

• Satellite A20-S103: LAN cable disconnected

  Hello

  I can not access my LAN or internet.
  I use a Satellite A20-S103 with a Realtek RTL8139/810 x Family Fast Ethernet NIC

  When I connect the Lan cable to the LAN port, the message "LAN Cable" disconnected.
  The same message is displayed using connectivity doctor ConfigFree.

  I have changed several cables, used cables that worked on other computers and the message still there and no access to the router/modem.

  Near the LAN port LEDs are not lightning (or orange or green, no)

  I already read messages here in the forum (and other forums) and I can't get the ethernet card works.

  Do you think the problem is with the card or the operating system.

  Can you help me?
  Sorry for my English

  First, check to see if the network card has been recognized in the Device Manager.
  Under network adapters, you should see the LAN card.

  If there is a yellow exclamation point near network card then the driver has not been installed correctly or there is another serious error.

  In the first case I recommend the withdrawal of the LAN card from the Device Manager and after new reboot, you should try to reinstall the driver downloaded from the Toshiba page!

  In addition, you must set TCP/IP parameters automatically because the router assigns the IP address automatically.

  Please check and report the results

  Good luck

  I can't install windows because the BIOS is not fully ACPI-compatible.
  The version of the BIOS on the laptop is V1.10.

  Update I need a version of dos to Flash the bios.
  Is it possible to get an update of the bios that is written for dos?

  Thank you very much

  > I need a flash BIOS for laptop Toshiba Satellite A20-S103. I have already downloaded on the download site. But this one I can't use because I need windows must be installed.

  You will get no other update BIOS (traditional BIOS). Only the victory of BIOS-based are available on the Toshiba page!

  In addition, you should be able to install windows even the BIOS is not fully ACPI-compatible.

  What Windows you are trying to install?
