IDE #0 ERROR on Portege R100

Hi, I had an accident with my notebook, Portege R100, and the only thing that happens at startup, it is that I get the message "ERROR of IDE #0.
The Bios can not find the HD either, so I guess that its broken?

My question is what I have to buy a HD toshiba exactly the same product and brand of number? The HD (40 GB) I have now, I believe, is MK4006GAH (correct?) Buy the MK6008GAH or the MK6009?

As long as his toshiba 1.8 "ZIF interface works?

We hope to get an answer quick and sorry for my bad English

I agree with kjo it really looks like a HARD drive or the malfunction of the HDD IDE controller.
Maybe a bad connection between the HARD drive and controller

In my opinion, the technician should take a look in Notepad and run Diagnostics routines.

  • Portege R100 disc read error

    I have a portege R100 and today I get the message error reading disk. Despite several times to try to erase this using ctrl alt delete, the message persists. This means that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced?

    It is possible that some sectors on the HARD drive are corrupt or damaged.
    You can try running scandisk and additional, you can check the HARD drive with the application of part 3 as a generator of HARD drive

    You can try to search in the googel for this application:

  • Portege 2000: IDE #0 error appears

    I've been working with my Portege 2000 without problems, but 2 days ago, when I turn on the screen see "error ide #0", I tried hd 1'8 "with and the adapter to a pc standard and everything seems correct, all files and folders is displayed."

    When I turn on the lights hd' laptop computer led but "ide #0 error" appears.

    BIOS does not show any reader.

    Thank you

    Hello

    My first idea was a malfunction of the HARD drive, because the HARD drive is connected to the controller of DIE #0.
    Especially the message if the BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive!
    Try to access the BIOS and check if the HARD drive is listed and has been set to primary IDE.

    If the BIOS talk you about this issue means that it s is not a software problem, but a hardware problem.
    Try to format the HARD disk on the other computer and check if it of possible to reuse the HARD drive in the laptop.

    If this does not help, I guess that the HARD drive needs to be replaced :(

  • Portege R100: question of recovery - disk partitioning error

    My old portege r100 doesn't quite work.
    I tried using the recovery CD product, but during the resumption of the process the following message apears:
    Drive partitioning error!

    What it means?
    What can I do to overcome?

    Thanks in advance

    Yannis

    Hello

    It seems that HDD might not be partitioned correctly.
    Perhaps the HARD drive is not ok?

    Check if the HARD drive is recognized and listed in the BIOS.
    If the HARD drive is not listed, then the HARD drive is dead and must be replaced.

    If the HARD disk is listed, then there might be a problem with the HARD drive partition table
    You could test the HARD drive by using a tool called Drive Fitness Test.

    You can also try to format the HARD drive first. You could fix this HARD drive on another computer by using a USB HDD controller. This allows you to access the HARD disk and format this drive

  • Portege M100 - Dvd drive IDE 1 error

    I tried to replace the drive cdrw/dvd combo to a dvd rw drive, but loading it says error IDE 1, but its strange, that you cannot start out of him, but in xp you can use.

    I'm sure its something to do with the Bios.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    Thank you

    > I tried to swap the drive cdrw/dvd combo to a dvd rw drive, loading it said error IDE 1, but its strange, that you cannot start out of him, but in xp you can use.

    I think you used a CD/DVD player with bad parameters master/slave/c-salt.
    If the reader doesn t compatible with the right settings, BIOS will not recognize the IDE #1 error and it will appear as in your case

    You should know that not all drives are compatible. I'm not quite sure if your user manual contains the disks info picked up and compatible, but you could check it m

    Otherwise, I would recommend contacting the partner of service authorized in your country for a list of compatible readers or to order a good.

    See you soon

  • Installing XP on Portege R100

    Hello.

    I'm trying to re - install Windows XP on a Portege R100. I have a CD of tools & utilities but no system recovery disk. I have a Toshiba CR ROM that connects to the laptop through a cardbus. I thought it would be a simple matter of putting my XP install disk in and boot from that. Unfortunately, he gets of how most by installing little drivers, then just at the point where it happens with Windows startup, there's the bluescreen error message blue screen following error:

    + A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

    + If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps (and then continues to tell you to chkdsk/f) +.

    + Technical information: * STOP: 0x0000007b (0xf897f524, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) +.

    I had similar errors with other laptops by which SATA controller drivers need to be integrated into the Windows Installer disk. Is this a similar situation?

    If anyone has any ideas / suggestions, I would be very grateful.

    Kind regards

    Steve

    I saw 0x0000007B on my laptop previous installation of XP, it's a problem of HARD disk controller, usually caused when XP cannot find the correct drivers for IDE/SATA controller.

    First of all, you need to use a CD of Windows XP Service Pack 2. You can integrate SP2 into the XP CD, google search for "Integrate SP2 XP"

    I'm not familiar with this model, but you may need to use a storage F6 driver. Take a look at the Toshiba website for drivers or instructions.

  • Windows XP Setup stops with "Stop 0x0000007B" on Portege R100

    I have a Portege R111, but it is the same model as R100. I am trying to install WinXp on it, with a lot of problems.
    I have no CD to recover, but as I've read, it's possible.

    I use a PCMCIA-cd/dvd player. It starts fine, but after I get a blue screen with the error "* Stop 0x0000007B."
    On the microsoft home page, I've read a lot about this
    [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324103/en]

    It seems that it is a problem with my hd, so I disassembled the 1.8 "HD and connected to my normal pc. Here, I could install WinXP without any problem.
    Then I reassembled the hd (with the top winxp system), but guess what, it doesn't. I just get get the menu in what mode I want to boot into windows (safe mode, safe mode with network,...). Whatever mode I select screen freezes after.

    I tried to run a normal linux (ram only) on it to see if that works. But it's not. The screen freezes while trying to load the kernel modules.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Hi guys

    Portege R100 supports the recovery through the BIOS (by pressing 'C') with (16-bit and Cardbus) PCMCIA cards.
    Sequence of disks and controllers (PCMCIA) might work:
    (a) Toshiba, PX1055E-1NST SN: 3431490096 with PC Card (16 bit), II cable, PCMCIA, Rev.043.242
    (b) Toshiba, PX1055E-1NST with a CardBus, cable II, CARD BUS, Rev.136

    The drive used in conjunction with the PCMCIA controller is not so important due to the fact that the driver in the BIOS must allow the controller first. There is a generic CD-ROM drive implemented in the BIOS for the connected player. The "PC Card controller Mode" settings in the BIOS has been 'Automatic Selection '.
    This means that you have nothing to change in the BIOS, because it is the default value.

    It could happen, to connect the power supply in certain circumstances, for example:
    Battery is charged too less.
    The PCMCIA supplies unless energy location.
    If a player is used with a built in battery, please always connect an appropriate adapter.

  • Various installation with the Portege R100 and Windows XP issues

    Hello

    I recently bought a used Portege R100. It came without OS and I wanted to install XP SP2.

    I know that restorations only work with PCMCIA readers adapted, but the HARD drive is formatted, so there is no recovery possible I guess.
    Here are my problems:
    -with my very old Freecom PCMCIA CD player the Windows installation CD is recognized, and it starts to load the XP drivers until he wants to start copying files installiation--> then I get the blue screen of Windows with the error 00 x 7 (virus or driver)
    -the same thing happens with my former W2k Pro installation disc.
    -With the even more ancient W98SE, strange things are happening too: installation seems to work fine, but when it comes to start with W98SE, for the first time, the system hangs up with pixelgarbage.
    -Make the 6 Bootdisks with makeboot doesn't work anymore.
    -J' also tried MS-DOS! And guess what! It worked! Loading the Freecom drivers and copy of Windows I386 folder on my hard drive with the volkov Commander (something similar to NortonCommander) worked too! So I got hav files on my drive but after running Windows NT in the i386 folder, the system hangs after some time, when it starts to copy the files to a temporary folder.

    So I tried almost everything I know. at this moment I am download knoppix to try it.

    I ran Memtest86 and 9 Diskmanager to test the RAM and HARD drive, finished two withut errors, so the priority of main parts in the installation process seems to work. Maybe it's that my IDE controller is broken?
    I have no idea, WHY does he not move windows!

    Help is hot!

    Thank you

    Christian
    Does

    It should work out that way, run you own your HD first in Fat32format - file-system, otherwise it won't work!
    Don't forget to use "smartdrive' in your BACK-commissioning, otherwise it will take a lot of time, even the 'freeze' is possible.

  • Cannot retrieve Portege R100

    I have some problems with my Portege R100. The HARD drive has been damaged so I bought another, it is already formatted.
    I have also two CD-readers:
    1 Toshiba PX1055E-1NST PCMCIA card reader
    2 key USB Toshiba PA3352U - 1 CD 2

    My problem is that the doesn´t of recovery works! I'll explain just what is the problem:

    I boot from the Flash DRIVE with the recovery disk 1 on the inside. My computer laptop replys with:
    "Windows 98 Startup
    Microsoft RAMDrive version 3.06 virtual disk D:
    Disc size: 16 384 k
    Sector size: 512 bytes
    The allocation unit: 16 sectors
    Directory entries: 64 "

    After that, the screen tells me
    "Driver for external PC for Rev ATAPI IDE drives card: 2204.

    then:
    "ERROR: there is no PCCARD in socket A and B!

    PCCARD not initialized! »

    After some time:
    "ATAPI-CD: CD-ROM ATAPI IDE drive driver.

    After that, in big letters:
    "NO CD/NET.
    a: ".

    If I type "dir", then it displays the list of files. I think it means that the CD-Rom is at work, isn´t it?
    I ve tried a lot of things to get my laptop to work, but nothing seems to help. A person of this discussion forum explained using a normal CD - USB drive to start with.

    I tried different disks and normal versions of Windows XP. Without success!
    What's wrong?
    I m not an expert computer as you can probably, and if someone can help me, please try to expain to a person who is a beginner to computer in this case.

    Try to remove the USB entries in Device Manager, and then restart the device. The ports should be recognized and installed correctly. In my view, it cannot happen without any reason. It will be interesting to know since when this problem started.

  • Problem of Eve Portege R100

    Dear friends,
    I have a problem with my newly purchased Portege R100. When I try to switch (or in hibernation mode, in fact), it starts the process and then stops and displays an error message saying that it is in conflict with the keyboard player and I might need to update this.
    Of course when I try to update, it shows not any update for the keyboard drivers.
    I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same problem and how you solved it.

    Thank you
    Riccardo

    Hi Riccardo

    As far as I know, this problem may occur if you use the external keyboard because for now what laptop enters standby or hibernation to stop all active processes. Now there may be some conflicts because many programs or processes can make the problems by putting off circuit.

    The external keyboard?

  • Portege R100 and Linux - function keys not working do not and the latest version of the BIOS?

    Hello world

    I have a Portege R100 (PPR10L-13G10P). I am trying to install Linux and when you try to access function keys (F6) the computer does not allow me to... no idea why?

    Also, what is the latest version of BIOS for this computer? And where it can be downloaded?

    Thanks in advance!

    Terrence

    Hello

    At first, I must say that Toshiba doesn't support Linux in general if you are alone with this problem.
    I hope that someone will be able to help you a bit.
    If you want to discover the latest version of the BIOS, just enter the BIOS settings and check it out.
    BIOS version latest won't help you at all, so my opinion is that you shouldn't change anything.

    Anyway, the bio download page is - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_bios.jsp

    The feature keys F is supported by special tool Windows and it only works on Windows.

  • Portege R100 and new hard drive

    I think to put in a larger capacity internal hard drive - 40G is now a little bit :(

    Does anyone do this? The traps? Any suggestions on compatible drives?

    TIA

    Hello

    As far as I know the old Portege R100 supported a HDD IDE controller.
    So you will definitely need an IDE HDD. I think that it s a 1.8 IDE HDD.

    I think the HDD IDE controller supports only the 28-bit LBA and it would mean that there would be larger than 120 GB hard drives not recognized.

    That's why I choose smaller hard drives.

  • A few questions about the Portege R100 upgrade

    -How can I update a larger HARD drive?
    -What RAM should I update?
    -Can I upgrade the processor?

    Thank you for your help.

    holger112

    Hello

    You cannot switch the processor!

    You can upgrade the HD, but because it is an interface 1.8 "HD with an ide (50 pin ATA) the best you can find is a 60 GB HD (Toshiba MK6006GAH 60 GB) you can find them on ebay for a reasonable price

    You can easily switch from memory with a module 1 GB pc2700-dimm ddr1 (like kingston or corsair) in replacement of the module of 512 MB to a maximum of 1.2 GB.

    You can buy them everywhere

    Also note:

    install XP on a R100 is not very easy, but you can find lots of information on this forum, as here:
