• Satellite L30-134: how to make a DVD of recovery on mine?

  I want to make a new DVD of recovery like the one I had with my laptop series Satellite L30-134.
  Can some tell me how I can do this?

  You must purchase 3rd party applications to create the own recovery image. For example I did with Norton Ghost 2003.

• Re: Satellite L30 - 134 PSL33e shows 896 MB of RAM, but 1.5 GB are inserted

  Satellite L30 - 134 psl33e-00e013g3.
  I have 2 memory slots, in the first place there are 1 GB kvr, then I add to the second slot 512 MB Hynix
  All of the memory two modules are ddr-533 (little difference in hours between them is present)

  If I click on my windows computer properties shows me only 896?
  On the official form of toshiba. subject memory says I can go to 2 GB of ram.
  BIOS is the latest version!

  How can I add more ram in this model?
  Aida64 shows me in the slot1 = kingston 1 GB
  SLOT2 = 512 hynix
  but aida shows that the memory system 896.
  All modules in memory works great separately in all slots...

  Thank you

  Hello

  That says the BIOS?
  BIOS sees the 1.5 GB of RAM?

  As far as I know that the laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB)
  The ATI graphics chip also shared memory.
  This means that if you installed 2 GB of RAM, a main part of this memory would be shared by GPU.

  It would be interesting to know what value would be reported by system using a single module (1 GB or 512 MB)

  by the way: what memory is shown in DXDIAG?

• Satellite L30-134: is it possible to determine the frequency of 533 MHz RAM?

  Hello!

  I have Satellite L30-134 and used a module of 1 GB / 667 MHz (sic!) for a while. Same Toshiba says maximum speed 533 MHz memory he recognizes module PC-5300 and sets exactly to 667 MHz.

  I decided to increase the RAM and bought another PC-5300 1 GB stick.
  ... RAM is only 1 GB with two modules together. The two sticks are OK - L30 sees 1 GB and works well with each of them separately.

  I know that the reason is that Toshiba couldn't work with greater speed on the two banks (or something like that).

  So. It seems to be a good idea to set the frequency of 533 MHz and it should work.
  The only question is to know how to do it? BIOS Setup is almost empty and does not have these settings.

  One advise, please (except to buy sticks more :)

  Hello

  Laptop Satellite L30-134 is a processor 1.5 GHz of Intel-Celeron-M (Yonah).
  Is this good?

  This processor supports a 533 Mhz bus and if you use modules of 533 Mhz RAM then will automatically solve this value!
  Simply put, you do not need to change anything manually! Everything is controlled automatically.

• For the Archives: The upgrade of the Satellite L30-134

  I'm one of those old cell phones off a friend who had retired as being obsolete.

  However with a little time and money, it is possible to upgrade to a very usable machine.

  Not a power by any stretch but perfectly adequate for browsing the internet and watching videos (about 720 p watchable) standard definition etc.

  So as the search of these forums for more information for this project, I found a lot of conflicting advice, and some of my questions were not answered at all. I hope by documenting my experiences here I can help someone in the same position in the future.

  * Model *.

  This machine is the Toshiba Satellite L30-134, part number: PSL33E-00E013G3. It's probably very similar, but not necessarily the same as the other models L30. No invert them.

  * Original configuration *.

  Processor - Intel Celeron m 410 (Cache of 1 MB, 1.46 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, Socket M). It is a simple version of the Core Duo (Yonah core) processor core. It shares nothing in common and is not swapable with the previous generation Pentium M or processors Celeron Mr. He is also incompatible with the next generation of Core 2 Duo/Solo and Pentium and Celeron processors derived from these.

  Memory - A single 512MB SODIMM PC2 - 4200 (DDR2-533 MHz). This differs from the previous generation of DDR and the next generation of DDR3. The controller memory only supports single channel mode. There is no loss that the FSB of the processor is not fast enough to take advantage of the dual channel anyway.

  * BIOS *.

  My laptop came with very old version 1.3. Toshiba provides the latest version (3.10) for download. This is reported to be buggy and mess with the profiles of fan so I decided to leave it alone. I can confirm that my updates work without updating the BIOS.

  * Updates *.

  Processor - I swapped the Celeron for a Core Duo T2350 (1.87 GHz). Everything I read that all the Yonah core Core Duo/solo, Pentium and Celeron with a FSB of 533 are compatible. The FSB 667 models are not.

  The Core Duo T2450 at 2 GHz is the highest performing compatible processor but double the price on eBay. I paid just £12 (used) for the T2350 so there is really no reason to go down now, all of these parts are obsolete.

  RAM - there are 2 slots on this machine. Toshiba State a maximum of 2 GB, 1 GB in each slot. Unfortunately, the memory controller is very picky and survey of the weird errors, unless you get just the right ones.

  There is not enough information to understand it so for me it was a process of trial and error. Fortunately, I found an online retailer that guaranteed compatibility in 100% and returned by mail for free.

  The second pair of Poles worked well.

  Thanks for sharing!

• Satellite L30-134 - fail screen

  Hello!
  Hopefully, someone can help me with my problem.
  I had one laptop Satellite L30-134 and had no problem with it. But today tried to move on and the screen lights up. I can hear the winchester and cooler work for a min then stop.

  Which may be caused by several reasons.

  Have you tried re-seats or try different Modules of memory?

• Satellite L30-134 - after HDD upgrade PC freezes and won't start

  Hello
  I upgraded my Satellite L30-134 of the standard 60 GB HDD for a new 120 GB. After that, I have the following problem:

  (1) after installing XP form to the recovery House DVDs works fine but after that 2-3 weeks of normal use it instantly freeze pc and after hard reboot the OP start up can do anything but to format the HARD drive. After that format cannot install original XP and Vista, the progress bar show me that the installation is complete but after reboot, nothing happens. This problem persists long wery. After 3-4 clean up one after another the pc starts and runs very well about 3 weeks. What is the problem? Any idea?

  (2) when I first install Vista or Linux PC is runing fine, but not in normal parameters. Always freeze but after hard reset works fine for about 2-3 days. When I install XP first that the PC is useles after hard reboot the only thing I can do is to format the HARD drive and do a clean install.

  PS: The HARD disk is produced Original Toshiba.

  Hello

  This strange boyfriend s but to me it sounds like that, these problems are caused from the new HARD drive that may be defective.

  I think you should test the HDD using Hitachi Drive Fitness Test:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
  With the Drive Fitness Test, you can test your HARD drive. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. You can then the HARD drive test.
  On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

  Good luck and give us feedback, what happened! :)

• Satellite L30-134 - question about upgrade CPU and video performance

  Hi have updated my satellite l30 - 134 with a bus t2450 dual core @2 ghz 533 Mhz = cpu is runing swell-marks look nice... BUT - my video performance droped a lot - grafics 2d - to top but 3d grafics are very poor why? driver problem?
  have also 2 g ram 2 x 1 g kinmax @ 6xx runing @533

  can anyone help? see that are some similar configs on this site... then maybe you can help me
  I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)

  > I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)
  Forget that don t recommend install Win XP 64-bit.
  Why? Because the Win XP 64 bit was not so popular as Win 32 bit or Vista/Win 7 64 bit and you won't find many drivers for Win XP 64 bit.
  Stay with XP 32 bit or you can change to Win 7 64 bit.

  Regarding the graphical issue;
  Have you noticed that also using the old CPU (Intel Celeron M Processor 410)?
  If this were not the case, then I guess this could be a problem between the CPU and BIOS.
  Otherwise I would recommend upgrading the graphics card driver.

• Upgrade memory for Satellite L30-134

  I have a Satellite L30-134, which seems to work pretty slowly - I think that due to the large amount of photos and music from itunes.

  I wonder which is the best way to solve - buy a memory upgrade (no idea how to change memory well) or get an external hard drive?
  And if I change the memory I'll lose what is already saved on the laptop?

  I agree with Ganz most HARD drive will not improve performance but increase the disk space available HARD, it would be you can store more music and picture on HARD drive ;) files

  Upgrade memory also would not provide a performance gain of course performance could be a little better because most of the things would be handled directly in memory and not in time on the HARD drive, but generally it s not really noticeable.

  In any case if you want to improve memory, check this:

  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=25737&ft=m&St=3

  You must use DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM

• What you can say about Satellite L30-134

  I have to buy laptop for office work? and I choose Satellite L30-134? What do you think? It's my first time when I buy the laptop... I have only 700 maybe $ advise you something else? and second question why portable seria L30 have only 1 year warranty, and what cost per the warranty extension?
  My English in not very good, sorry. Thank you for your response.

  Hello

  The L30-134 is a portable simple to office applications and internet usage.
  But it s not suitable for hardcore gamer because of the hardware specifications. As far as I know that the laptop provides Intel-Celeron-M (Yonah) 410 1.5 GHz processor and ATI RADEON Xpress 200M 32 to 256 MB shared video memory graphics card.

  The standard warranty is 1 year and if you sign up on the page of Toshiba notebook you will get a 2-year extension

• Unable to connect the mouse or the keyboard on Satellite L30-134

  Just bought new Satellite L30-134. Try to connect monitor via a belkin, switching, separate keyboard and mouse device. Keep an eye on fine, but the keyboard connection problem or the mouse. Both are connections PS2, I used PS2 to USB switching device. Sounds complicated, but I thought that it would be "plug and play". Whenever I connect keyboard or mouse, error message saying device connected unknown.

  ANY HELP APPRECIATED

  Hello Mark

  Can you please try to connect to some new keyboard or mouse? May be time to use recent hardware components with new laptop models. Use some modern mouse and keyboard and it will certainly be "plug and play" device.

• Satellite L30-134 PSL33E: CD/DVD player can't read data CD

  I bought my laptop (Satellite L30-134 PSL33E) 4 months ago and I had no problem with the optical drive of my Satellite. But yesterday, I discovered that my drive is no longer can read data CDs.

  I created a CD with the Toshiba ToDisc utility which contained MP3s. The CD works fine on another computer but when I try to play them on this computer Windows laptop tells me that the CD is blank and asks me if I want to save data.

  It doesn't have this problem with the DVD, I can read and write perfectly. My optical drive is a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S. Windows says I have the latest driver for it (5.1.2535.0) but it says it's from 2001 (?) in the properties under the selected hardware.

  Help, please!
