Need your opinion on Satellite L300D-11V

In contemplating this laptop priced at 349 to curries. Main use is word processing, music. I player videos download. eBay and general navigation. Chose this one because of the availability and its construction in webcam and microphone.

New to all this... are there disadvantages I ve heard Vista these slows down, but you can t get it with XP?
The price is right? Observations of information please.
There was so many variations on the Toshiba site, I got a little confused!
TKS

I don't know if you can have the Satellite L300D-11V with licensed XP, but Vista with SP1 is almost as fast as Windows XP.
The Satellite L300D with Vista has enough four power your use with word, downloads, etc.

  • Need your opinion on Satellite A110-153

    Hello

    AI? m new here and here? m looking for a laptop. The A110-153 seems interesting to me.
    Could someone give me more information as comments on what are the + and - of the product?
    Also, I saw on a site that has this laptop has 2 hard drives. Is this true? I can't find it anywhere (toshiba.com). Also, I find that strange, I never heard that a laptop has 2 hard drives or disks.
    CA? I think that s too bad that this laptop has an integrated video card.
    What I want to do with the laptop is:
    -Internet
    -Ms office
    -work with images (I have a digital camera and a digital video camera)
    -A small Photoshop

    What? s your advice?

    Hello

    I found a few pictures of the Satellite A110-153 and in my opinion, the laptop is very nice
    The laptop supports the processor Intel Core Duo (Yonah) T2050 1.6GHz and you can upgrade the memory up to 4 GB
    I put t know where you found the information on 2 HDD, but as far as I know there's a single 100 GB HARD drive installed.

    But I found a downside. The notebook support only an Intel 945GM 8-128 MB shared memory graphics card.
    But not don t worry it s strong enough to work with photo and MS office applications.

  • Need your opinion on Satellite L350-20F

    Hello

    I was offered a laptop replacement by my insurance, I got the Toshiba P100-160
    and they offered me the Toshiba Satellite L350-20F.
    Is this a good deal? What is the best?

    Thanks Wilf

    Hello

    It is not easy to be realistic. If you use your laptop for the office and the typical daily activities, it's OK and I'm sure that you will be satisfied with it.

    Maybe you should talk with assurance and ask if you can get the money instead of new material.
    Take the money, put a bit of it, and buy the new notebook with the best material and components as best webcam, harman/kardon speakers and so on.

  • Need your opinion on Satellite P100-429

    Hello

    Just a few questions on this laptop until I get it when it comes to £400.

    I especially need school and no games. I am skilled in computer science I need a PC range.

    Beautiful appearance Do Q1), the blue lights in the speakers
    Q2) is like a microcomputer
    Q3) what size is.
    Q4) you have the problem like the fact cracks of the hinges.
    Q5) that the Remote looks like and is at - it a video showing the computer

    Thank you
    Machanic

    1. Yes - very, if you like cars modded or need for speed, or a Mac on steroids (bronze cover, blue lights, harman kardon speakers), then Yes.
    2. you can use it as a desktop computer, the screen is large enough for programming on without too much trouble.
    3 17 inches, you'll definitely need a bag of 17 inches, preferably the new style laptop backpacks with protection against shock, unless you want a pain arm lug around this topic (is not * that * heavy, heavy just irritable).
    4. maybe - but the Toshiba warranty Guys tell me it is being fixed, new reinforced plastic are mounted when I get mine replaced (and probably they will change the models for sale). You can't have the problem.
    5. the remote control is optional - I got one - should I have one? :)

  • Need your opinion on Satellite P500-1DX

    Hello

    I think buying a P500-1DX because it looks good on paper but there are a limited number of customers online, so I was hoping that those who have had experience with the laptop could post their comments on the advantages and disadvantages of the machine. I'm mostly multimedia oriented.

    Thank you
    Schlosser

    I've been using Satellite P500-128 nearly 6 months now and I can say that I am very satisfied. I use it primary for my work by using internet and Microsoft Office.

    When I have the time I use it with Skype for conference call with my friends. Cam functionality and the microphone is just great. From time to time, I watch movies and do multimedia usual stuff like connection digital camera for photo data transfer or movies, burns or copy on external HARD disk or DVD media.

    The performance is really good, and so far I have t did not notice any problems with it.
    The display is optimal. I love this screen 18. The sound is amazing and I can just recommend you to buy this machine.

    It is large enough for laptop and maybe not the best for mobile use, but if you want to use it at home for private use and entertainment, it's really the right solution.
    The price is OK and for the price, you will get a piece of hardware.

  • Satellite L300D-11V cannot find a WLAN

    Ok
    I have 2 x Satellite L300D-11V notebook PC series and both have the same problem: they're not detect my network wireless in my house but I've proved the wireless hub using a third PC (HP) and works perfectly.

    I ve checked the wireless switch is enabled and made key FN + F8, but it cannot always find a network. I checked the devices in the network adapters and find Realtek RTL8102E Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC but it's a card LAN isn't?

    Other devices show a unknown device, but where can I find the wireless device?

    Hello

    I don't know what kind of stories you heard in stores, but the fact is that Toshiba offers laptops with wireless network inside card. These laptops come with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and have factory settings.

    This recovery image contains the operating system, all the drivers needed (including the WLAN driver), Toshiba designed tools and utilities and some additional software. So if you buy the new laptop with OS preinstalled WLAN driver is there.

    The statement in both stores is a disinformation or there is a misunderstanding.

    Hi John
    I'm happy to hear that your problem is now solved. Just FYI: your laptop wireless network card is REALTEK RTL8187B 13CH 802.11(B/G).

    Good bye

  • Satellite L300D-11V - DVD player does not work

    Hello

    I am a Satellite L300D-11V and the driver on the CD does not work. I think is not the right driver and an update of Windows could have messed up.
    Anyone know where I can download the correct driver for the DVD player for Vista? Or solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Mounira.

    Hello!

    I put t understand why you need a CD/DVD driver or tell you the driver does not work.

    The CD/DVD driver for the reader is part of Windows. You don't need one and should not install a new or something else. When you have problems with the drive, it s not the driver, it s another issue.

    Now have yellow marks in the Device Manager and can use the drive? On the right, a right click on the drive and select uninstall. Restart your laptop, and the driver should be installed automatically.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L300D-11V does not start

    Hey, I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V and seems them to be a problem, the battery seems to be dead and does not start also when I connect it to the mains it also does not start.

    Please could someone help to what is causing the problem?

    Thank you very much

    I doubt that it is a dysfunction of the accumulator because the startup laptop doesn t even the power adapter is plugged.
    I think you should try this workaround:
    Remove the battery from the laptop and unplug the power adapter.
    Then wait about 20-30 minutes and then reconnect the two parts.

    If the portable fuel I would recommend updating BIOS.
    If the portable feed then you will need to contact the ASP in your country!

  • Satellite L300D-11V: taken power moves a bit

    Hello

    I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V of curries.
    The laptop is great apart from the power jack on the side of the laptop that may move a little when it is plugged into the laptop.

    I took the thing to the shop only to hear the Director tell me that the display model of the laptop even did the same.
    The laptop works very well and starts too thin.
    I just wanted to know if someone else L300D-11V did the same thing.

    I also wanted to know if anyone had any complaints or positive things on the laptop.

    Hello

    Unfortunately I n t have the L300 and I can't say much on the subject, but on my laptop the DC port doesn t pass. He fixed s and I think that it would be advisable to contact the ASP in your country. The technician must check to ensure that there is no hardware problem.

    I think that you should do this because you warranty is still valid and all can be fixed and replaced for free. the warranty covers this.

    Best regards and greetings mate.

  • M690G AMD chipset driver for Satellite L300D-11V under XP Pro

    Nice day

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V comes with Vista. I downgraded it to XP Pro. I need to find a driver from chipset AMD M690G (processor is AMD Athlon X 2 dual core inside) to set right, but can't find so far that has worked.

    I think that's the reason why I can't install the network driver wireless Realtek correctly on this subject.

    Many thanks for the pointers, I'm really stuck here...

    See you soon

    Hello

    The AMD chipset driver is part of the graphics driver. This means that if you need to install the graphics driver XP for this laptop, the chipset driver is installed too.

    You can try the graphics driver XP for Satellite A300D PSAK0E.

    The series A300D PSAK0E was fitted with the same graphics chip ATI Radeon X 1200 as the Satellite L300D-11V

  • Re: Why is it so hard to find drivers for a Satellite L300D-11V

    I recently acquired a laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V to my daughter when she was upgraded to a netbook. It had Vista on it and I tried to installed Windows 7. I've never owned a notebook pc before, only a desktop pc; and they have never been through an OEM like Toshiba, but is built for me or by me. I bought Windows 7 and here, asked if he had any tips to install the drivers on my laptop Toshiba.

    Windows installs all drivers actually when it installs. Not the best that you not understand, or later, but enough so that everything works.

    I had problems but try to update of maps, graphics and imaging (webcam) devices. Windows gave a dated 2008 latest ATI driver accredited a pilot signed for the ATI Radeon X 1250. After a few searches through Toshiba, I managed to update this for 2009. But it took 2 days to research before finding what I think is the last Catalyst (and last?) ATI Radeon X 1200 series v.8.593.100.0 dated the 10.02.2010. Unless of course you know better... ??
    The webcam Chicony USB 2.0 CNF7051 is something else.

    The drivers for this camera software might work when installed by Toshiba with all the other stuff of Toshiba, and they resolutely refuse to work if you remove the software of all Toshiba with a clean install of Windows 7. The camera works you understand with other software; Messenger or Skype; but on its own... no! I managed to remove the message "the pilot was able to start" and thought that I had a crush, but I now have a message "webcam disabled or has failed.

    At least he does when you try to start the software, not on every start at the beginning. So I'll stick to this... unless of course... ??
    At times like this I realize why I buy a machine no OEM and install my own operating system and the latest drivers, not the old ones that are provided and not updated by OEM.

    In my opinion, it is not difficult to find drivers for Toshiba laptops. You just look for the right place.

    Many people with European models of research pilot on the US page and I was wondering why they can't get good portable.

    I assume you have the European model so you'll find drivers on Toshiba are supported on the page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

  • Webcam Chicony USB 2.0 & Satellite L300D-11V

    Hello

    I just installed Windows 7 Professional in my laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V.
    Everything is reported as working in the Device Manager, but the driver of the webcam Chicony does not start.

    Windows automatically installs the drivers, v.6.1.7600.16385 dated 06/21/2006, but the unit does not start with them.
    Windows insists on the fact that these drivers are the most appropriate for a Chicony webcam.

    Download from Toshiba site has a VISTA, not Windows 7 drivers, v.1.7.175.0123 driver, but the unit does not start with them.
    Is that what the camera is simply not compatible with Windows 7 and I have to use an external USB webcam?
    Or someone at - it a way around the my problem please?

    What's even stranger, is that now I have installed Skype webcam works in Skype... ??
    The webcam also works in Windows Live Messenger... ??
    But I can't start the webcam using the installation "Camera Assistant Software..?

  • Need driver XP for Satellite L300D-043 graphics card

    Hello world!

    One here that never heard you before - I burned the OS on this Toshiba L300D-043 is really a PSLC8C 043019 of his bloody useless VISTA to XP and I managed to dig up enough drivers for everything except the video card in it.

    Now I show as an ATI Radeon 3100 series, at least that's what the windows 7 install says it is...
    So once the continuous hunt... anyone know what other series of laptops has the same video chipset and it will install happilly on this PC?

    I went to ATI and found the chipset and told by the site they don "t he provide for mobility series... Thanks ATI!

    Yet once again, I need the XP version of a video driver ATI, which runs on a Toshiba D300L-043 who formerly Vista and now runs XP Pro instead!

    Thanks for your help!
