• 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.

  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 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.

• BIOS update fails on Satellite P100-429

  I had a bad flash on my Satellite P100-429.
  The utility crashed which left me with a bookend. Not happy

  I ve created a floppy crisis recovery disk & bought a USB floppy drive after a lot of internet hunting for info.
  Problem is that I need to check on the exact key combination for my laptop to the crisis recovery mode reverie.
  Power on I have the usual symptoms, LED flash, power for CD-rom, click on power of floppy etc...
  I just need to check the correct sequence for the combinations of keys.

  Can anyone help?
  Win - f, victory-b, f - fn, fn - b, victory-esc, fn-escape doesn t seem to work for me

  The waiting time for floppy drive boot after combination etc?
  Help!

  Hello

  I n t have experience with these tools of recovery of the BIOS because I think it s a little too risky. There is no official way to recover a BIOS and I don t want to destroy the whole ROM module.

  In my opinion if a BIOS update n t successful, you should go to an authorized service provider. Contact a technician for laptop and explain your situation. The technician can try to reflash it and they have more experience. I think that this should t be a problem to connect with one. ;)

  Good luck!

• GPU fans to work on Satellite P100-429 (Nvidia) on Linux

  Hello

  I have a P100-429... and managed to get the GPU fan to work. As most of you probably know, we edit the DSDT in order to get its work under Linux (and these laptops). There, another fix that also allows the GPU fan work. Mine seems to be on low-speed all the time and the Nvidia display configuration application now the temp to be less than 50 c most of the time, so before he went up to 75 or more.

  In any case, I've posted my DSDT updated at: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/edit.php?manufacturer=Toshiba&name=Satellite+P100-429

  NB I use also of the Bios version 3.30.

  I found the solution on the French site, I had to interpret slightly.

  My laptop feels much cooler now then before.
  Hope this helps someone.

• Satellite P100-429: Intel Wireless Wifi Link 4965agn card is not compatible?

  Hey guys

  I have a Satellite P100-429 with a 3965abg to intel, I have a few router purchased months ago Netgear wnr834b n project, then think, it is high time, I upgraded my internal adapter.

  I wanted to know if the Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN adapter would fit that is a right with the 3965 swap, as it says it's connection is Mini PCIe card * and I have no idea if it would fit?

  Hello

  Yes, she should go, because the W-LAN-mini-card slot is a PCI-Express, so you'll just have to swap the cards. But be careful with the antenna connections, if you bend them too so they break very quickly and then there is NO WAY back and you will pay for the exchange of
  the whole cover, where are the antennas of screen.

  Best is to contact a local service partner if they exchanged, you don t therefore the risk for the guarantee void if you do something 'not very good' on your machine. :)

• Bad screen refresh rate shown under Vista - Satellite P100-429

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P100-429. There are three weak, I install Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, but now the highest of screen refresh rate is 60 Hz. I tried to download the latest drivers for the graphics card, but this will not work and the computer also says that the monitor is called generic PNP.

  Before Vista has a 100 Hz screen refresh rate and monitor had his screen Toshiba TruBrite WXGA + TFT of own name I tried looking for drivers for the monitor but without success, someone can help me pretty please, I get headaches for the low screen refresh rate.

  Hello

  Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
  Immediately after installation of Vista, the operating system uses Microsoft's own common graphics driver.
  If you want to use additional graphics options, you need to install the compatible graphics card driver.

  But I want to clarify something. The LCD or TFT screens give excellent quality and resolution at 60 Hz.
  the Refresh on TFT rate simply won't say the same thing about monitors CRT.
  Response time, brightness of the Image and the contrast of the Image are more important for a TFT or LCD monitor like the refresh rate.

  Performance display and the quality isn't worst if it run on 60 Hz
  Therefore, I see no reason to change the refresh rate of 100 Hz

• Satellite P100 - 429 (PSPA3E) memory upgrade to 4 GB

  I have 2 GB of Ram at the moment and would like to 4 GB is possible, accept the Bios and I run Windows Vitsa Home Edition.

  Hello

  I googled a bit and found some information s
  It seems that the Satellite P100-429 supports the 4 GB of RAM.
  The Intel® 945 PM Express chipset, which is installed in this notebook supports 4 GB to 400, 533 and 667 MHz

  So, theoretically, you might be able to pass to 4 GB of RAM.

  But note; If you are using Vista 32-bit, then the OS will see only 3.2 GB

  To get full access 4 GB of RAM, you will need the 64-bit Windows OS.

• Satellite P100-429: how to burn on DVD?

  Got a Satellite P100 429 he will write DVDs? He says, but I can't seem to do it (without recorder) is all I get.
  If it can HOW? (driving me crazy)

  Hello

  I imagine that you replace didn t drive of the laptop.
  Many laptops come with a different hardware configuration. This means that as different readers might be installed in the laptop. But if you bought the laptop with the DVD burner I see not why the reader should not burn the DVD.

  What burning software do you use? I use Nero. It's great and easy to use.
  I advise to use it for burning media. It supports CDs and DVDs

• Satellite P100-429 does support the 5-in-1 card reader?

  IM wanting to buy a new laptop computer and is came through the "Toshiba Satellite P100-429'." It's the portable perfect! However, when I searched the internet for a detailed technical specification, I found that on pixmania.co.uk he states that there is no memory card reader:

  http://www.Pixmania.co.UK/UK/UK/462038/art/Toshiba/Satellite-P100-429.html

  Still other sites, he says that there is a 5-in-1 including Toshiba card reader themselves. It is therefore possible to have the same laptop model but with a different specification? or is it a typo in the site of pixmania? Thank you

  > is it possible to have the same laptop model but with a different technique
  Of course, many laptops in the same series were delivered with different hardware specifications it is nothing unusual.

  For example, the dvi video port, express card slot or the married media card slot are available on some models.
  I would trust the Web from Toshiba site and this model should support housing ExpressCard and a PCMCIA Type II slot.
  The slot SD, Compact Flash Card slot card and smart card reader are not available on this model
