M30X-165: can't power management

• Need of Windows Vista on Satellite M30X Toshiba power management tools

  Hi all

  recently switched to Windows Vista with my Satellite M30X.
  Unfortunately I can't manage my power options, because Windows doesn't let me do for the original use Toshiba machine tools to the place, but those with my laptop, I received are not compatible with Vista.
  There are no files available in this category on the download from Toshiba site.

  Do you have any ideas where to get these tools? Toshiba, or something different, but still compatible with Toshiba and Vista?
  Or at least how do to enable advanced power management options in Windows?

  Thank you very much for all the advice!
  Martin

  Hello

  Toshiba Power saver for Vista is not out for Satellite M30X, and it seems that you use clean Vista power options.
  But to be honest, clean Vista power options aren't bad and can be configured easily.

  I am new to the forum and some difficulties with my power management settings.

• Toshiba and BIOS-satellite M30X power management

  Hello!
  I just installed XP PRO with Service Pack 2. I tried to install the Toshiba power management tool. At the end of the blue installation screen appears and the system restarted. I tried upgrading BIOS (windows flash) and hanged just after flash system started.

  Icouldn t restart even pressing the poweroff several seconds what is the problem? If possible answer also private e-mail [email protected]

  Hi Mam

  AFAIK for M30X that there is a new BIOS version (1.90).

  Please check this document and be careful.
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/FAQ.jsp?service=EU&from=faq_selection&CFID=BIOS&fi D = TRO0000000b07

  Very important is that your device must be connected to the power supply and DO NOT interrupt the BIOS update, because it can destroy the BIOS.

• Where can I find XP x 64 drivers for Portege R500 - hotkey / power management?

  Where can I find the downloads that will enable the power management or hotkey support for my Portege R500?

  I already installed the drivers for everything except the fingerprint reader (do not want), tpm (really envy) and hdd (tos620a) motion sensor (not embarrassed at this time). Most of the drivers are recent original sites of the seller or, in the absence of those, leaving Toshiba 64-bit Vista download areas.

  Everything else works generally: wifi, graphics & chipset, sound, lan, bluetooth stack, cardbus, card reader, etc.

  However, after doing this, are the following questions:

  FN keys do not work for suspend to ram, suspend-to-disk, * screen * brightness *-essential to extend the life. FN keys for digital/Board pad, rocker of external surveillance * work

  Dedicated toggle backlight button does nothing

  However, in order to get the lifetime of battery beyond ~2.5 hours and closest alongside 7.1 hours, I need to turn things down / stop occasionally. What software can help and where I can get, as it runs on Windows XP x 64 edition?

  Note:

  I tried packages of 32-bit xp which provides Toshiba, they do not seem to work on x 64. The package 'chopsticks' requires 'cmod', but 'cmod' gives this error:

  Installation of Modules common TOSHIBA
  Not an ACPI machine. Cannot install TOSHIBA ACPI peripheral logic.
  Ok

  I tried the 32-bit xp package called 'pwrsav '; It installs a bad help link in my Start menu and adds a few exes, tpsmain and tpsoddctl, to my automatically starts. These 32-bit executables left immediately after execution.

  I tried to install packages of 64-bit Vista from Toshiba hotkeys / common modules / power management, but the only one of the three I can find via toshiba.co.uk is the common modules, and unfortunately this zip file contains only .inf, .cat and .sys files, no program installation.

  Motivation:
  I use a new installation at the same time because the default installation of Vista is unusable (900 MB of memory used on a fresh startup desktop, disk divided into several partitions, trial, adware and with broken software at left and right)
  I use x 64 because I am software engineer the next product needs to work on x 64, and this new laptop was a likely first candidate

  Hello

  Bad news first :(

  The European driver Toshiba page provides the drivers for XP 32 bit and Vista (32-bit & 64-bit).
  I did find all the drivers for XP 64-bit OS.

  As much as I know XP 64-bit drivers is not exist for one of the series of Toshiba laptops.

  Now a new better ;)

  I found a tool called display Tuner.
  It offers convenient access to the monitor settings, such as brightness, contrast, color settings.

  Perhaps this is an option for you.
  Google a bit

• M30X 129: problem of battery or power management road

  Hi all

  I had a lot of trouble with my laptop recently; When using just the battery I can watch it unloads and a minute, he can read about 30% or more, depending on the laptop will be beep like crazy and then go into hibernation. I put it to Hibernate at 5%. I find it incredible that the battery can lose about a quarter of its power in less than 60 seconds.

  I've updated the utility of power management using the Toshiba site, but it has not changed anything. The only time that I have the AC adapter and battery at the same time is when I charge the battery, if I'm near a power outlet and there is no need to reload, I always remove the battery.

  I read on these forums somewhere on the withdrawal of the Toshiba power management and just using windows, but I prefer not to change anything like that, as far as I'm concerned the Toshiba it should do the job! The laptop is still under warranty but my nearest authorized repair center is more than 200 miles away, so, does anyone have any ideas of what I can do or try next? I'm out of ideas...

  Cheers in advance,
  Colin

  Hi Colin,

  You don't say how old is your battery, but it is more likely to be a hardware problem with your battery rather than a problem with the Toshiba power utility.

  It seems that if one or more of the cells in your battery cannot hold its charge properly, and once the remaining cells the battery power exhaustion will fall suddenly.

  HTH

• Can not make any changes to the "power management". Says only "home/desk", no other choice. You want to change mode 'sleep'!

  I got different choices under the front power management, but when I checked 'Hibernate' it changed for only one choice. I cancelled the hibernation and it lists than "Home/office under power management.  That's happened?

  Hello

  I suggest you follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if the problem persists or not.

• Satellite M30X-165: Mat * a UJ - 831 S is not read and write any DVD

  Hello

  the next problem is sticky on the laptop Satellite M30X 165 with the burner Mat * a UJ - 831 S: it can read and write CDs, but is not able to write them to DVD or even read some of the ones I've burned and also read in the same drive. Even at the start of the DVD, it does not start from the recovery DVD, the player starts and slows down very quickly.
  Without doubt, it must be put at the service of repair or someone has other suggestions?

  Could you please tell me how long the repair takes (I know what it takes to install the desktop temporarily used).

  Thank you

  Post edited by: DerSeher
  Using burning software, it detects the DVD, but invite you to an "error of calibration power (037303).

  Hello

  If you cannot use recovery media, I guess that the drive is defective and must be replaced.

• Satellite M30x-165: OpenGL in the graphics driver is old

  Hello

  I have a Satellite M30x-165.
  I downloaded and installed the latest drivers from the page Web of Toshiba.

  When I check the version of the OpenGl driver it says that the version is 1.5.4454. Recently, I heard that this version is very old and may cause some problems with certain programs.

  The computer does not install the downloaded driver directly from ATI Web page.

  How can I update the version of OpenGL?

  Thank you well in advance.

  Greetings,
  Argonis

  Hello

  The M30X isn't the new laptop series and therefore the graphic driver seems to be not updated to the latest state
  Graphics drivers that are released in the Toshiba page are designed especially for Toshiba laptops and there is a big difference between the Toshiba and the drivers of the ATI page. So it's not easy to install the ATI drivers on laptops OS.

  But there is one thing; first of all, you can unzip the package and then you could try to update the driver through Device Manager. Here, you point to the folder decompressed driver to update the graphics driver.

  This allows you to install non-Toshiba divers would help the Toshiba notebook.

  But note; These drivers are not certified for the use of the laptop and so you can ONLY use and YOUR OWN RISK.

• Differences between M30 and M40/Power management

  Hello!

  I own a M30x and have a problem with the power management utility run by restricted users. (XP/SP2 teacher - 1.27.2.1 Toshiba power management utility.)

  A restricted user cannot access the tool and the laptop runs in mode full power if it has power supply or battery.

  In this forum I read that last power of m40 tool available under a restricted user.

  So, the question is clear: what is the difference between laptops m30 and m40? Can I use on my m30 m40 energy saving without trouble?

  TIA,

  Georg

  Hello George

  As far as I know that the tools and utilities are not the same for each model or series laptop. The notebooks have different hardware configuration, and each tool is designed to work properly with the own series.

  Optical, they are all the same or look like to, but I'm sure you may have problems using tool on your unit designed for another model of laptop.

• Satellite M30X - 165 Win XP Pro SP2 sound does not work

  Hello
  on my Satellite M30X 165 I simply get no sound output, if I look in Device Manager I see installed Realtek AC97 audio drivers but if I look at the Menu "Sounds and Audio devices" I see "No. Audio Device" in Control Panel, I use the Realtek drivers you can get from the Toshiba Homepage , the file is called sound-sm30-xp - 51005620.zip everyone has an idea? It's a freshly installed system not exceeding 4 Application installed at all (not even the bureau installed yet)

  If it's any help I have 2 unknown devices "PCI Flash Memory" and I don't know what it could be for I have no pcmcia cards connected and nothing more except Lan and mouse / keyboard.

  Noise appears on the recovery image installed Toshiba?

  If Yes, I assume that you have installed the operating system from the Microsoft CD and Toshiba drivers and utilities in the wrong order or some drivers are missing.

  But maybe the his doesn t appear due to the installation of SP2.
  I read in the Sp2 installation documentation (found on the Toshiba driver page) that maybe the Yamaha AC - XG driver sound 6.13.10.2152 must be installed.

  Anyway, please check this possibility.

• Utility power management Portege A100 has stopped working

  I tried to remove and reinstall the Power Management Utility and utility Toshiba but when reinstall I get a fatal error notice and the 0x51A error code. Can anyone help please?

  I suspect that this problem could have been triggered by an update XP or Norton Internet Security.

  Try to clean and repair the registry using CCleaner. It the free tool.

  Firstly uninstall the energy saver, then clean the registry.
  Download page of the European driver Toshiba Portege A100 Win XP tools and drivers.

• Canvio Connect II power management

  I have a Canvio Connect II 3 TB drive and I'm annoyed by the fact he's going into a deep sleep after a few minutes of inactivity, and it takes a lot to wake up to the top. This is my first Toshiba, all my other WD drives drive (Toshiba was the first to release a 3 TB portable 2.5 in car at a decent price), and I have never such a a problem with them, they all last much longer long to fall asleep and wake up much more quickly.

  Is it possible to change the settings of this player power management? Preferably something Toshiba itself? Everything I could find on the web are unacceptable "corrections" that writing something on the disc every 4 minutes so he wants to stay or things like that. I would like to have a proper fix. And nothing ever Toshiba, not even an acknowledgement of the problem, which they seem to continue for at least 5 years already.

  If this isn't the case, someone knows how can I contact Toshiba support by email? The only option I found on the Web from Toshiba sites is to contact by phone, there is no other methods (such as email or a contact form), which looks very suspicious. I have only seen this sort of behavior with fake Asian companies ' selling ' good products at half price, but actually take your money and disappear. All serious manufacturers should offer several contact options. Although I bought my drive from UK, I do not live in the United Kingdom, and I don't want to spend money on international calls with support from Toshiba to only be thrown from one person to another and probably never received real support.

  I am very unhappy with this situation, and if it is is not resolved, it will be the only player Toshiba I'll never own, I'll stick to what I know, works very well in the future.

  Hi, same problem here with my two hard Toshiba USB drives (Stor.e Canvio 3.5 "Desktop, 2 TB + 4 to). I searched all over the internet, came to exactly the same conclusion as you: many 'solutions' with third party software which works only during the session or on the same system, so the same problem could reappear as soon as you connect your HD to a different device, re-install the operating system or whatever. Here is a quote from another thread in this forum that says it all:

  Posted by amk316
  

  This is email support form

  ********
  Thank you for your recent inquiry to the subject of your hard drive Toshiba Canvio.

  We can confirm that there is no firmware downloads available for Toshiba external hard drives. (Energy saving) nature of use of the disc is because of the way it was built. Therefore, we can confirm that it is not editable.
  **********

  all better than toshiba support can solve this problem

  Post edited by: amk316

  Thus, it seems that Toshiba support won't help. I doubt that the problem is really "because of the way it was built', i.e.: caused by the material itself. or at least, I doubt that, even if that's the case, it can't be fixed by providing a new firmware. I guess that Toshiba DOES simply not invest time and money to solve the problem. Accordingly, like you, I never by a hard Toshiba will lead again if they don't change this attitude. Good luck anyway!
