• HDD upgrade on Satellite Pro M10

  Hello

  I want to exchange the hard drive of my Satellite Pro M10. Can someone tell me what drives can I use? On ebay, I found a disk HARD 160 GB fot this model, but in the manual they talked only about 30 GB, 40 GB or 60 GB HARD drive.

  Thanks for any help!

  Your old laptop IDE interface for the connection of HARD drive, so I think you can use max 120 GB HARD drive.
  It should be enough for this oldie? Do you agree with me?

• Satellite Pro C650D - problems with the audio and game controllers

  Hello

  I recently had problems with my microphone and speakers/headphones and game controllers.
  Sometimes the microphone stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Stakeholders sometimes still work when I connect headset.
  Some of the sounds are still coming through the speakers while some coming through the headphones.

  I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  If I assign buttons in the program that they do not work in the game.

  All these devices are in Device Manager in a group that makes me think it's sort of annoying update doubtful that messes with them.

  Any body have similar problems or know what to do better?

  See you soon

  Hello

  Can you please send some details on the laptop model and the system you are using?

  With regard to the issue of sound/mic:
  > The microphone sometimes stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Are you talking about internal microphone or external? This only happens using Skype?
  In your case I would test the microphone using different applications to make sure that is not a Skype related issue.

  > Yet sometimes the speakers work when I connect headset.
  I recommend this thread:

  The user has had a similar problem, but this phenomenon was linked to the Realtek HD Audio Manager settings.
  She wrote:
  + In the upper right corner, there is a small yellow folder called "Connector settings" in my version. +
  + There, finally I could re-enable the setting "enable popup dialog box, when the unit is plugged. +

  + So now when I plug an external speaker or headphones, it appears, and I select the option "helmet" (instead of "line-in"), and then the sound only through the headphones/ext.speaker.+

  Regarding the game controller:
  > I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  > If I attribute buttons in the program, they do not work in the game.
  I put t think its problem of laptop in my opinion, you must make sure that the controller is compatible with the games you play and also recommended to check some info provided by the manufacturer of the game controller.

• Satellite Pro 4280 - problem with the BIOS password

  Hello
  I decided to revive my old laptop Toshiba SP 4280 but failed to get the system because he wants me a passowrd initially.
  I have tryied to get out a map of Moser for 24 hours battery - but it did not help.
  I tried a few passwords backdoor, like Toshiba, toshy99, but it did not help.
  I've successfully upgraded BIOS the most recent a 2, 70-TRAD, but again he asks me a password.

  Could you help me please with this problem?
  What can I do?

  BTW, I can't get into the BIOS Setup and select the source of loading (Hard, FD or CD) because I have to enter a password first.

  Thank you very much!

  Hey,.

  Unfortunately, I don't think that an authorized service provider can help you get rid of the password because they have special tools to do and how to do it. Maybe some jumpers must be defined, but I put t know

  On the Toshiba Web site, you can find a list of aspic call them and ask for help, all that s! ;)

• Satellite Pro C850 - problems with WiFi after Windows update 8.1

  Hello

  I was wondering if someone could give some advice on a problem I have.

  Had an adjustable C850 Pro for a few months and worked well on Windows 8.
  I myself am then harassed and intimidated by Microsoft Update in order to install Windows 8.1 and in a moment of weakness, I succumbed (got sick of the nagging).

  Since that time, my wifi is very intermittent; either I'm on another computer write this and the laptop is essentially not connected to the internet.

  For some reason any (although I didn't try it before), I can not connect via ethernet either, so I think it's probably the driver problems. (I also tried to connect the public wifi but fails).

  I tried to install the driver WiFi Toshiba 8.1 but that has not solved the problem.
  Then I noticed that I'm supposed to install a bunch of drivers in the order.

  Maximum setting to do it, but the first package (associated with bluetooth) said I have to remove the current driver... I try by "turning off", then "Uninstall" but 8.1 seems to re - install automatically and I don't know how to disable this option (I can try to delete the driver file, I guess, but I'm sure 8.1 covered too and will probably launch a drone to try me out ", if I do). *

  Any kind soul there suggestions on a way forward? Pls.

  I see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now. :(

  Hello

  > I don't see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now

• Satellite Pro L10 problem with Ports COM/Hyperterminal & Bluetooth

  Hello
  I have the following problems with the above machine:

  (1) I have attached an external series COM port to the machine. However, I can not connect to the COM Port using Hyperterminal.
  (2) I installed a Bluetooth USB adapter, but I can't view the protocol configuration.

  Each of the above works perfectly with another laptop that doesn't have a Bluetooth or even a network card.

  Everyone has experienced similar problems. I use WinXP SP2.

  Thank you

  MC

  Hello

  1, in which is the external COM port connected? Is detected in a straight path in Device Manager? What is the error msg to Hyperterminal?
  When connected via PCMCIA, try to change the settings for PCMCIA slot in the BIOS!

  2, try to reinstall the Toshiba Bluetooth stack! There may be some problems. The MS Bluetooth stack does not work properly with the Toshiba devices and one of the earlier Toshiba Bluetooth stack is not signed by Windows XP Service Pack 2!

• Satellite Pro M10: image on the screen is very dark

  I have a portable Satellite Pro M10, which has a black screen, i.e. the backlight does not work. There is an image on the screen, but it is very dark. When you connect an external monitor, I get a normal picture on this screen.

  Information from other messages here, I conclude that there is a problem with the backlight of the lcd screen or the inverter. I checked all connections, but it does not solve the problem. If I bring the laptop to a service center how much it will cost about for repair? The thing is 2-3 years, so if it is very expensive I could better get a new laptop.

  I'm sure I'll be able to change the inverter Board myself, but how am I going to be able to determine that the inverter is the problem? How to get a new inverter? Is anyone of you know the number of good product?

  My Pro M10 itself has PS630E-G205Z-OF product number.

  Hello

  I agree with Tobi. You sounds description as a faulty FL inverter.
  This part is placed behind the LCD screen under the lid.
  As mentioned this part isn t very expensive and you could order the partner of Toshiba service in your country. But be aware that if you have no experience of replacement if you ask technicians for assistance.

• Satellite U500-17F: problems with the new HARD drive

  Hi everyone, I got some troubleshooting with my Satellite and a new drive, I bought recently, because that is already damaged because of too many bad sectors. One is a Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 Bg (WD3200BEKT model number). It should be a fast reader but is not with my Satellite.

  After having mounted the drive in the laptop, I ran a new installation (with full disk format} Windows 7 (64 bit) with all the necessary drivers (that I downloaded directly from the Page of Support Toshiba.)

  The problem is that the laptop needs a lot of time to start and also to disable, and whenever I try to run an application or start a program (for example Firefox, or just a few windows applications), the laptop freezes for about 30 to 60 seconds, the drive no longer works (you can hear leaders put in position 'parking' and the HDD LED control is constant) ", no lights flashing).

  It seems that the drive (during this 30-60 seconds) in something as a stand-by mode. I ran a few Western Digital diagnostic tools and the car looks all right to 100%. It works also without any problems in the other laptop (HP Pavilion DV6500). Could this be a problem with the controller (Intel ICH9M - E ATA AHCI controller) driver?

  Any suggestion?
  Thanx

  Hello

  You use the latest version of the BIOS?
  Please check if you need a BIOS update. Of course I read in a few discussions on the similar question of Win XP you use Win 7 but its value to check the update of the BIOS and U500 series.

  In addition, I recommend check you the power of Windows 7 options.
  Disable in the power profile that you use power saving HDD.

  Just a question:
  You use the option AHCI in the BIOS?
  As far as I know it of possible to use either a compatible SATA AHCI mode.
  AHCI must be used because this option would use full SATA performance.

• Satellite Pro M10 overheating and the fan runs loud

  I have a Satellite Pro M10 and when it is the fan on the power grid comes shortly after the start and makes a horrible noise - this has only started happening recently. I tried spraying compressed air (dust) to the air outlet and still have the same problem.

  Other postings say to clean the fan, but I don't know how to access it. I'm worried about overheating problems I work in Africa much of the time and the laptop is subject to hot temperatures.

  Hi Hannah,

  The easy way to clear the dust and debris from the cooling system is to use a vacuum cleaner hose placed on the admission air grids that are usually in the bottom of the laptop (covered by a grid). For maximum effect, I usually place a rag around the pipe to maximize the flow of air through the fans.

  This causes air suction through the radiator CPU the wrong way and ensures that all debris are not pulled into the heatsink, but are removed by fans. You can see a ball of down under the grates that you need to try to clear little by little.

  This technique will not void your warranty since no disassembly of the unit is necessary.

  Kind regards

• Satellite C40D-C - problems with the system

  I recently bought an a toshiba satellite C40D-C Series notebook PC as my old satellite - essentially - is dying. After you connect to the internet, I tried to download AVG Antivirus on my computer that I don't have - and never - trust McAfee anti-virus that comes with the computer. Every time downloaded AVG then restart my computer, the computer goes directly into the automatic repair system and doesn't let me do anything but to reset or restore. This has happened even with completely removed McAfee. I've been on AVG directly today (January 15), and they have to do remote set-up for me - with the same results. Yes, I'm aware that McAfee is a selfish cry of a system and refuses to acknowledge any other antivirus, but that this issue happens even with completely removed McAfee shows clearly that it is something that Toshiba has worked in the system. I can't even disable the automatic repair tool. I have to be stuck with a McAfee antivirus which, moreover, does not yet or is Toshiba will make an effort to help solve a problem they caused?

  Why this computer isn't allowing AVG Antivirus work? And why, after each attempt to download AVG, the computer goes to auto repair whenever I shut down or restart? Is this a problem with the system or something, Toshiba has done on purpose?

• Satellite C850 - found problems with the networking and the FN key

  Hey everybody,

  I work on a Satellite Toshiba C850, that my parents recently bought and spin in a certain number of questions.

  (1) wireless won't connect to my network. Have done the following: verified by connecting on two other computers, reset the router, the open network, reset the map, reinstalled the realtek drivers, checked the settings in the networking of Toshiba Utilities. End result is he's going to try, and fail. Wired LAN works fine.

  (2) FN key does not work. Have you checked the region and it is OK, have tried to use the Flash cards - no change, checked with the screen keyboard and can check the FN key does not register.

  I noticed that the first problem is common, but there are obvious positive results. If anyone can offer any assistance, I would appreciate it a lot.

  Before you begin to discuss your problems can you please tell us what OS you are using?
  Are you using the original OS that you got with your laptop? I mean original recovery image has been tested and works correctly, with the factory settings that all should especially the FN keys.

  1 / What do you mean with refusing? your WLAN is visible for your laptop?

  2 / if there is problem with the feature keys FN and you use Win7 try please reinstall extra package from Toshiba.
