Hinges of satellite 2800 500

OK, here's an obscure. I've owned my Satellite 2800 500 for about 4 years and I am very happy with it. Recently however, the hinges of the screen becomes very stiff to the point where they have now cracked their mounts aluminum just below the screen (inside the case). The laptop is now at about 15,000 items (especially the screws) to access the two hinges and know what is happening.

I think they just erased (term technique.!) and took a couple of rings and lightly oiled inside to try to release them again. However, I tend very much hope that this will prove to be a long-term solution, so I'd like to find spare parts.

Can anyone recommend some kind of provider to get two replacement hinge mechanisms please? They are manufactured by a company called the hundreds, but they just returned me to the Toshiba support. I am looking for tracks with third-party suppliers of parts, but there seems to be so many parts different hinge that it would be a huge stroke of luck to find a laptop broken 2800 for them to save.

Any help would be most appreciated - thank you!

Mike

Hello Mike,.

Normally, these hinges can be ordered only by a Service partner because it is a replacement repair part!
You can try to contact a Service partner and ask if they can sell you these hinges!

    Hello

    The problem is that all CD/DVD drives cannot work spirit all models of laptops. The problem is that there is no way to change to master or slave. AFAIK there is no public document that shows the discs and laptop computer compatibility.

    The best solution is to check if the drive is CSEL. In this case, it should work properly. If you can check please if you can find the CSEL notation on the label located on the upper side of driver s.

  • Satellite 2800-500 BIOS update

    I see that there is an update of the bios for the 1.6 x bioses dated 03/01/04 and I have a bios version 1.6 x dated 15/09/2001. What I would like to know is what is the difference between the one I have and the more recent, and if I should upgrade my wood to the new version?

    Hello

    I put t know what OS runs on your device, but on the Toshiba site you can find the information that the BIOS 1.6 since 18/12/01 is NOT designed for Windows XP.
    The newest BIOS version 1.6 x (03/01/04) is only for Win XP. In this case if you want to upgrade your system to Win XP, you must update the BIOS to the latest version.

  • 2800-500 satellite HARD drive upgrade

    Hi all

    Am wanting to upgrade my drive hard toshiba 2800-500, because it is currently has a 20 GB in there no model no MK2016GAP and would like to upgrade to a 40 GB with a model without MK4018GAS. I just want to know if it will work without any restrictions for example BIOS problems or other things?

    Hi Christian,

    You should have no problem of reclassification of the a 20 GB hard drive to a 40 GB one. The machines no longer manufactured (or updated BIOS) after the end of the 1990s can handle larger disks.

    Kind regards

    It s worth a try! ;)

    The device was shipped with this sound card:
    Yamaha YMF754 FM, MPU401 MIDI synthesizer. SB - Pro compatible

    You can try to check out the other laptops with the same sound card for the new sound card driver or you visit the website of s manufacturer and research out there for the new version on this driver.

  • Satellite 2800-200 - what external enclosure that I can use for HARD drive

    My daughter has a laptop of Toshiba S2800-200 eldely.
    It is broken where the mains cable between the machine and she has been quoted £100 for repair!
    She has already bought a new computer repair is not an option.

    Toshiba, however, contains some files (photos, music etc, mainly) that she would like to keep, but get the files of the computer laptop and on its new machine is a problem.

    My thought is to buy a cheap USB basket somewhere like eBay, remove the hard drive and use the caddy to download photos. etc on his new computer via the USB port.

    To buy the correct caddy I need to know the full spec (diameter, capacity, etc.) of the Toshiba hard drive and I don't have a clue!

    Can someone here point me to the spec of the drive on a Toshiba S2800-200 please?

    I guess the Satellite 2800 series is supported by the IDE HDD controller and HARD drive would be also a 2.5 IDE HDD.
    That's why you should look for a USB IDE HDD box

    You can choose;

    Hello

    The DVD/CD-player (402 SD - C02) in my Satellite 2800 400 no longer works.
    Are there other toshiba players that fit into this computer or is it just the 402 SD - C02?
    I would like to have a CD or a DVD burner instead.
    If anyone knows a CD or a DVD burner that fits in the Satellite 2800 400?
    Thank you

    Hello

    Pleas be careful with a new CD/DVD drive. All devices may not operate correctly with each laptop model. In my opinion, you should contact the Service of your country partner and ask them because they have this kind of information.

  • On the former extension of memory by Satellite 2800 200

    In the product form, I found that this model could have only the extension of memory of 128 MB. However in the user manual, they say that 256 MB expansion is also supported. Which one should I believe? And if the 256 MB is supported which is the appropriate memory model? Or is the limit really 128 MB and why? For some reason any HW?

    Where can I find information on what size hard drive are supported by this model?

    Hello

    my best friend also has a Satellite 2800 and updated his book up to 192 MB.

    I spoke with a Service partner and they told me that the following Rams will be fit.

    PA3003U - 1 M 03 32 MB
    PS3004U - 1 M 06 64 MB
    PS3005U - 1 M 12 128 MB

    With the part number (P) you can order to a partner or an authorized dealer.
