Modular Bay for a satellite 2430

Hello!

I bought a satellite 2430 201 recently, but there is unfortunately no drive CD or DVD, a floppy drive. So I contacted Toshiba and they told me to look at their online shop or contact a service partner.
In the online shop Toshiba DVD writer cost 279 euros!
Looking at the price for a standard slim (about 75 euros) DVD burner I have decided to buy one in a store and stopped an empty modular Bay for a DVD player. This n t easy at all, but eventually I found a service partner in Graz, who could order the modular Bay for me. I am sorry to say that the price for an empty modular Bay is at 75 euros.

If anyone knows where I can get a modular Bay for less than 75 euros? One of opportunity or self build...
Thank you

Duffy

  • Need drivers for my Satellite 2430 USB

    Hey,.

    I realized that there is no USB drivers for the 2430 series that you can download, but I just reinstalled Windows and I had no USB drivers.
    What should I do?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    You are right. If you have installed a Windows XP, so you don't need USB drivers.
    OS uses own common Microsoft Windows drivers.

    But if you have problems with the USB ports I recommend to install the chipset drivers.
    This should help.

    Please can you tell me one I can download a new one. I got from the year 2003.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I also found only a graphic driver since 2003.
    As far as I know, this unit was delivered with a NVIDIA GeForce4 420Go 32 MB graphics card.
    I recommend to check the graphics drivers for other units that have the same graphics card.

  • Satellite S3000 - Modular Bay HDD

    I have a Satellite S3000-400 and I'm trying to set up a 30 GB 2nd HARD drive in the module Bay.

    I bought a HARD drive announced under the name suitable for use in the modular Bay (part number pa3101u - 1 h 30) but was sent an equivalent Hitachi drive with 13g 1486 part number.

    This disk came without HARD disc tray to install it in for insertion in the modular Bay S3000. Two questions

    -Part pa3101u - 1 h 30 usually comes with the HARD drive that is already installed in the toolbar State S3000.

    -What is the part number for disc HARD S3000 tray I need to install the HARD drive, I received today (and where can I get a).

    Thank you
    Phil

    Hi Phil,

    I should not worry the brand of the drive. Toshiba uses different brands in their notebooks. They all generically similar in terms of performance and physical dimensions.

    I'm not sure about which country you are, but I suspect that you may need to get a shopping cart in the car to adjust S3000. Here is a link to a UK site, which may be able to help you: -.

  • CD recovery for Satellite 2430-S256

    I tried to use my "recovery and applications/drivers CD" for Satellite 2430 Series as original factory system.

    He showed a lot of error messages and blocked the process. But I already had the opportunity before doing this and it worked perfectly.

    I already looked on the Toshiba site and it is said that thay have severe restrictions in lieu of this CD. They do only service if I send my laptop and be charged in more than 100 dollars.

    I have the damaged (?) CD and I would like to send it to replace. Is not possible, or someone have this CD to post for me?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello Gustavo

    If your recovery is damaged CD service partner can order a new one for you. As far as I know it doesn't cost a lot of money.

    Can you please send me the link where you based this information on the payment of $ 100?

    It is also possible that your HARD drive is damaged. If there is any possibility try to install the full version of Microsoft. On this way, you can check if the procedure of the facilities can be finished properly.

  • Need drivers for Satellite 2430 703

    After poor performance and other problems with my laptop, I thought to update some drivers. But where are they?

    On the support pages Toshiba Satellite 2430 703 is not found (in 'Archives' or any other category). Apparently, it never existed. I wonder can I use drivers. That is, can those of the "Satellite 2430" (without-703) I use?

    I have need a driver for the graphics card and one for the touch pad. Thanks for your help!

    The 703 is part of the family of 2430, so you can use these drivers :)

  • Satellite 2430-402: which HARD drive I can use for an upgrade

    Hello

    I have a 2430-402 satellite and the hard drive is full. Can someone tell me the greatest, he will take care and what kind do I buy? (Probably not PATA or SATA but I should look into IDE)

    Thank you

    Jez

    Hello

    You are right. To my knowledge, the Satellite 2430 was delivered with an improved interface to drive HARD IDE (ATA-5). Therefore, we must look for IDE hard disks.

    I'm not sure about Mr. size of HARD drive max. I think that Toshiba provides official information what size HARD drive max can be used. I presume to test

    Laptop has been delivered with a40GB HARD disk. Am I wrong?
    Hmm in my opinion the 60GB HDD should run. You might also try a 80 GB HARD drive if it s compatible.
    But I really very skeptical about larger sizes.

  • Boot from the 2nd drive HARD modular bay adapter (satellite P20)

    Hello

    I have a SP20-102 and I replaced the stock model with a 120 GB Seagate HDD and moved the original disc in a Module Bay HDD adapter.

    Is it possible to configure things so I can choose which HARD drive to boot from at the start, i.e. it is by default on the internal HARD drive but I can't choose to boot from the HARD drive in the modular Bay?

    I tried pressing F12 to boot device selection screen, but am unable to choose the 2nd HARD drive.

    Any ideas?

    R.

    Hello Robin

    As far as I know that it is not possible to boot from the external HARD drive. It is not supported.

  • Broken KeyCaps on Satellite 2430

    Dear all,

    A cap broken on my Satellite 2430. The question is: I have to replace the full keyboard or are available separately. If Yes, where can I buy the keys? Thank you very much for your support in advance.

    Kind regards

    The best way to replace a broken/missing CAP is via E - bay. Get a used/broken/new keyboard and detach the CAP you need.

    Toshiba supplies as much as I know only all keyboards (over 100 US$) or 'Language Exchange keycaps' (see link for photo):

  • Satellite 2430 XP startup problem

    Windows XP will not load on my laptop Satellite 2430-402, saying that the C:\Windows\System32\config\system file is missing or damaged and to try to run the option repair.

    I have 2 Toshiba Recovery CD which I managed to launch the program of recovery based on the BACK which has 2 options:

    1 full restore, I want to do
    2. selective restore, I don't want to do, but have no instructions

    I don't seem to have an XP CD, where I could start recovery of Microsoft application.

    Can someone give me the steps to undertake a selective recovery of Toshiba (from Symantec) back-based recovery CD?

    Thank you

    Hello

    In this case, I'm always ruthless. Back up the data and do fresh install. Then only I am 100% sure that everything works correctly. :)

    Anyway, if you want to make new installation with restore CD there are two possibilities:

    -Standard mode (any partition is deleted and new operating system installed)
    -Expert mode (you can choose which partition you want to install the operating system)

    It is very important that there is no repair option. This option you can find on the CD-ROM of Microsoft Windows XP.
    There are few opportunities to try to repair your operating system. You can try to replace the faulty system file. Copy the files from another PC system and replace it. I must also tell you that there is no 100% guarantee that it will be successful.
    You can also try to provide the Microsoft Windows XP CD-ROM (full version). You may have some success with the repair option.
    Next option is to use the Windows Recovery Console. I assume that you have access to a second computer. Click here for instructions that can help you.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314058
    This article describes the features and limitations of the Windows Recovery Console. If your Microsoft Windows XP-based computer does not start correctly or if it does not start, you can use the Windows Recovery Console to help you recover your system software.

  • Satellite 2430-402: 437 Application error during recovery

    Right, I've got a Toshiba Satellite 2430-402 (purchased new) for at least 3 years. I have formated several times before and re-loaded windows back on with no problems until now.

    The problem only started two days ago, when I noticed my CD drive was not recognized. So I decided to format etc, came out the disk Recovery Utility that came only with the computer to install everything, and it will not go beyond 12%. I'm greeted by * Application error 437
    Can not read the file.

    I left really stuck and cannot load anything. I fdisc / formatted /spinrite / kill the hard disk, just in case where there is something nasty on here and can still get nowhere. This is the first time I'm really stuck.

    This could be the engraver of CD or would it be the hard drive or basically the computer is nakered. I inspected the recovery disk, and they are all clean!

    Or is it because I made an update of the bios (you mind, it was weeks ago)

    Everyone please

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    to my knowledge, the Ghost image files are placed on the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    That's why I studied on the ghosts manufacturing Web site.
    It s Symantec and found this information site:

    HM http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/Ghost.nsf/0/14579a4173691f8988256abf005f4f8f?OpenDocument&SEG= & lg = fr & ct = us

    According to this page this problem seems to be due to starting the computer incorrectly when you use Ghost with GoBack on the computer.
    This problem may also occur when you use a brand or type of CD that works well with your CD - R or CD - RW device. In this case, Windows or DOS might be able to read the information on the CD that other applications cannot.

  • Lost recovery CD and Satellite 2430 201 joined...

    I have laptop of TOSHIBA Satellite 2430 201

    (1) I ve lost Windows recovery CD ROM How can I get another one back.

    (2) is this type of laptop have integrated Wireless LAN?

    (3) is to have this type of computer laptop built-in mic?

    You can order your CD from recovery of your local Toshiba authorized provider only, given that each cell has its own recovery CD. Maybe you could find someone with the same model and ask him. As for the other questions, I don't know--not even look it up in Google I found this model. This characteristic model what? I mean, what CPU, etc. Perhaps you could search the net and find something about it.

  • Satellite 2430 - 402 has a life of its own

    I got my satellite 2430 402 for about 2 years and it was absolutely perfect, but recently, I have noticed a problem that worsens every day. every few minutes the arrow mode icon turns green (without me touching the Fn key) and I lost control of the computer... strange writing appears... assistants open and close in front of me and im totally helpless that the keyboard stops working during the event... it continues for less than a minute and then everything goes back to normal for a minute or 2 then the same thing happens again...

    I'm about to start typing a thesis for my job and there is no way I can do if the problem persists... incidentally although it happens at any time it can be made worse if I try to type something, even a password to connect to a Web site... I had to use a friends computer to send sos message... can someone help please... Thank you

    There could be different reasons for this... HARDWARE or SOFTWARE!

    First, you need to check if this occurs only when you are running windows.

    SOFTWARE:

    If so,.
    (1) a malware (trojan, keylogger etc.) can be installed on your laptop, or

    (2) a bad driver could be the reason. Have you recently joined a keyboard or usb mouse to your computer? It may have installed an incompatible driver or wrong.

    Start your computer and keep it in the PRE-START-UP phase (enter the BIOS SETUP and wait to see whether this will occure here yet).

    MATERIAL:

    If so, I guess your keyboard film contacts are dirty. You will need to remove the keyboard, open the movie-lock and clean the contacts with alcohol or contact spray. If you are not familiar with this procedure, please consult the technical support.
