Maximum capacity of HDD for Satellite 1800 400

I have a PC laptop toshiba S1800-400 with a 13 GB hard drive. Can I upgrade to a hard disk of 40 GB or 60 GB? The bios will support this? (I've never done an upgrade of the BIOS, so it always uses the version of 2001 I think)

I used the Toshiba forum advanced search option and found a lot of topics on his theme. These two is only a small part:

  • What is the capacity MAX HDD for Satellite A210 - 11 c?

    My laptop contains smart 5400 RPM and 160 GB. I think I have a mechanical problem with HARD drive because of the annoying voice.
    That is why I want to change it with a new one, but I don't know what will be the largest capacity of the new?

    It must be with a higher capacity HARD drive?
    Unfortunately, Toshiba doesn't offer this info but I think that you shouldn't have any problems with 300 GB or even 400 GB hard drives.

  • The maximum size of HDD for Satellite Pro 6000?

    Hi, I am trying to install a 60 GB hard drive, but it is shaped, and it stops at the instalation of Windows XP Pro.

    Is there a size limit of HD?

    Thank you
    Ronaldo

    Hello

    It stops without any error message? If this isn't the case, then try another copy of Windows XP since the Satellite Pro 6000 shouldn´t have problems with this drive. I had 2 years a similar machine and I also got a 60 GB Toshiba HARD drive installed. It worked like a charm, so I can't imagine that the hard drive could be the problem.

    See you soon

  • What is a maximum size of HDD for Satellite Pro 2100?

    I want to improve my aging Satellite Pro 2100 (PS210E-00C3G-GR) with a new hard drive. The BIOS supports more than 120 GB drives?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hmm. 120 GB HARD DRIVE? I don t think so. But this is only my personal opinion.
    To my knowledge, the Pro 2100 was equipped with 30 GB HARD drive.

    I think that the 60GB is a realistic size and could be seen by the BIOS.

    In any case, I didn't find any official Toshiba information support max sizes of HARD drive and I imagine that you must test the HARD drive.

  • Satellite 1800-400 ME upgrade to XP Pro?

    All successful one satisfactory to a Satellite 1800 400 upgrade or similar (384 MB of RAM, 20 GB HD, 800 MHz Celeron) of Win ME?

    Would prefer to upgrade to XP Pro, but pure install 2nd choice.

    If I have the HD format for a clean install, an updated XP version would recognize the recovery CD Toshiba a legitimate copy of the ME - I've heard that there may be problems?

    I have the intention to upgrade the BIOS and collect all the drivers available for this model proposed by Toshiba for XP, but will there still be problems with all the material?

    Toshiba drivers must be loaded in a special order, and that is during or after installing XP?

    XP is likely to be faster or more slow/about the same thing as ME, with above hardware specifications?

    All advice welcome, because I have not upgraded the OS on a laptop before, and the potential problems seem more important than with desktop computers.

    Hello

    I put t not see why Windows XP Home edition should not be working on your device correctly. On this forum I have read many topics where users present on Windows XP Home edition on the old models as yours.

    Please see the download page for Toshiba under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp and you will find drivers for Windows XP Home edition.

    After installing WXP install display and sound driver first. Then install other drivers of material. The next step is installation of Toshiba stuff:
    Common modules
    Controls
    Energy-saving
    Public services.

    It is important to install common modules like the first.

  • How to connect by Satellite 1800 400 on TV?

    Hello
    I want to connect to my Toshiba Satellite 1800/400 on my TV, but I don't know how to install a secondary graphics card. My graficscard is a Trident Cyberblade Ai1 video accelerator.
    Please help because I get hopeless and frustrated because I need for school

    Hello Kevin

    As far as I know you don t need to install a secondary graphics card. The laptop got the output video output jack to transfer NTSC or PAL data to external devices (TV).
    If you want to activate the TV-out function, please go to display properties, and then click Advanced. Now click the device tab to display.

    There you can set the parameters on television and in the multi-screen TV/LCD devices section. Don t forget the TV Standard (PAL or NTSC).
    However, with the FN + F5 key combination, you can choose between the LCD and TV.

  • Satellite 1800-400: cannot run/install applications after installing XP

    I bought a Satellite 1800-400 for my daughter for her school work, formatted, installed XP pro, and when I tried to install the software for a wireless card (3Com) for internet access, he said only: "the application failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    So I tried another card (Belkin) software it says "D:\ is not a valid Win32 application". So I tried to install the printer software and he says: 'the entry point of procedure not found in KERNEL32.dll dynamic link library.

    So I thought I'd try XP Home, exactly the same, Win 98 and WinME function without problem.
    I have also flashed the Bios, but it made no difference.

  • Satellite 1800-400, ERROR! F3D failed

    Someone can help me troubleshoot above?
    First of all what does this mean?
    I had a very small Satellite 1800-400 with me running. I was convinced that it was full of viruses so wanted to start all over again with the recovery disk. All I got was this error.
    In addition, it is said software being installed, please wait and a 0-100% bar. (nothing happens)
    Being a novice surf autour, I picked up a new BIOS @ this site. After the install was not successful so I used the command chgbiosa on the a:\, this gave me a command prompt to enter the biosfile in and I have upgraded to version 2.2 (I really thought he could help silly)
    Retry the recovery disk didn't give no solution so I'm really looking forward to all the solutions to this disaster.

    Sounds strange! Is the recovery CD in good condition? Is this perhaps a scratch?
