• Unable to connect the mouse or the keyboard on Satellite L30-134

  Just bought new Satellite L30-134. Try to connect monitor via a belkin, switching, separate keyboard and mouse device. Keep an eye on fine, but the keyboard connection problem or the mouse. Both are connections PS2, I used PS2 to USB switching device. Sounds complicated, but I thought that it would be "plug and play". Whenever I connect keyboard or mouse, error message saying device connected unknown.

  ANY HELP APPRECIATED

  Thank you

  Hello Mark

  Can you please try to connect to some new keyboard or mouse? May be time to use recent hardware components with new laptop models. Use some modern mouse and keyboard and it will certainly be "plug and play" device.

• How to change the settings of the BIOS on Satellite L30-134?

  I have a toshiba l30-134 and I can not for love nor money to update or to unlock my BIOS. Yes before you repeat the usual speal on laptops is limited. I know they are!
  BUT... the BIOS on my laptop is, at the end of the day an interchangeable accordingly with appropriate tools and integrated program.

  It is well known that large computer makers lock end-users to access these options to stop their valuation there own bought and paid for PC, so that they can not go out and buy a cheaper machine, and improve it. It is also a common misconception that laptops are not expandable. That's what they want you to hear. It is not true. OK, so you can't plug loads of PCI cards or graphics in it, which would defeat the object anyway.

  Extensible components in a laptop ARE IN FACT evolving for example, memory and HARD drive.
  There are several options that I would see in my BIOS, I know they are there, and I know that they have been hidden.

  Why, oh why can't get rights to access these options? After all, he has bought and paid for, and if I want to tinker with it why I shouldn't. She belongs to me now.

  I have a few tools that will change these settings in the BIOS, Phoenix BIOS editor and WinPhlash, but again, I have not found a downloadable BIOS for my machine. But believe me when I do I will be changing the options in the BIOS. And I hope I'll be able to put together one guide for others who also believe that they can change it machines anyway they see fit.

  Watch this space!

  You can have a BIOS custom-made on your laptop, but not through an official site like Toshiba.
  I do not understand what options you believe was hidden from the normal user like you and me.
  In addition, I doubt that you can improve the performance of your laptop by changing the Firmware into something else.

  Once a stable Firmware is made to a system, it is preserved and everyone (manufacturer and user) are happy
  with the result.

• For the Archives: The upgrade of the Satellite L30-134

  I'm one of those old cell phones off a friend who had retired as being obsolete.

  However with a little time and money, it is possible to upgrade to a very usable machine.

  Not a power by any stretch but perfectly adequate for browsing the internet and watching videos (about 720 p watchable) standard definition etc.

  So as the search of these forums for more information for this project, I found a lot of conflicting advice, and some of my questions were not answered at all. I hope by documenting my experiences here I can help someone in the same position in the future.

  * Model *.

  This machine is the Toshiba Satellite L30-134, part number: PSL33E-00E013G3. It's probably very similar, but not necessarily the same as the other models L30. No invert them.

  * Original configuration *.

  Processor - Intel Celeron m 410 (Cache of 1 MB, 1.46 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, Socket M). It is a simple version of the Core Duo (Yonah core) processor core. It shares nothing in common and is not swapable with the previous generation Pentium M or processors Celeron Mr. He is also incompatible with the next generation of Core 2 Duo/Solo and Pentium and Celeron processors derived from these.

  Memory - A single 512MB SODIMM PC2 - 4200 (DDR2-533 MHz). This differs from the previous generation of DDR and the next generation of DDR3. The controller memory only supports single channel mode. There is no loss that the FSB of the processor is not fast enough to take advantage of the dual channel anyway.

  * BIOS *.

  My laptop came with very old version 1.3. Toshiba provides the latest version (3.10) for download. This is reported to be buggy and mess with the profiles of fan so I decided to leave it alone. I can confirm that my updates work without updating the BIOS.

  * Updates *.

  Processor - I swapped the Celeron for a Core Duo T2350 (1.87 GHz). Everything I read that all the Yonah core Core Duo/solo, Pentium and Celeron with a FSB of 533 are compatible. The FSB 667 models are not.

  The Core Duo T2450 at 2 GHz is the highest performing compatible processor but double the price on eBay. I paid just £12 (used) for the T2350 so there is really no reason to go down now, all of these parts are obsolete.

  RAM - there are 2 slots on this machine. Toshiba State a maximum of 2 GB, 1 GB in each slot. Unfortunately, the memory controller is very picky and survey of the weird errors, unless you get just the right ones.

  There is not enough information to understand it so for me it was a process of trial and error. Fortunately, I found an online retailer that guaranteed compatibility in 100% and returned by mail for free.

  The second pair of Poles worked well.

  Thanks for sharing!

• Satellite L30-134 - question about upgrade CPU and video performance

  Hi have updated my satellite l30 - 134 with a bus t2450 dual core @2 ghz 533 Mhz = cpu is runing swell-marks look nice... BUT - my video performance droped a lot - grafics 2d - to top but 3d grafics are very poor why? driver problem?
  have also 2 g ram 2 x 1 g kinmax @ 6xx runing @533

  can anyone help? see that are some similar configs on this site... then maybe you can help me
  I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)

  > I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)
  Forget that don t recommend install Win XP 64-bit.
  Why? Because the Win XP 64 bit was not so popular as Win 32 bit or Vista/Win 7 64 bit and you won't find many drivers for Win XP 64 bit.
  Stay with XP 32 bit or you can change to Win 7 64 bit.

  Regarding the graphical issue;
  Have you noticed that also using the old CPU (Intel Celeron M Processor 410)?
  If this were not the case, then I guess this could be a problem between the CPU and BIOS.
  Otherwise I would recommend upgrading the graphics card driver.

• Toll-free indicated what power disconnected from the Satellite L30-134

  I don't know it this the appropriate category, because I'm not sure of the source of the problem.

  Okay, here it is:
  I have Toshiba Satellite L30-134.

  Normally, when I unplug the cable of the AC adapter, 2 things happen:
  1 ATP icon shows that the current generator is the battery, and it shows invoiced % and about working time remaining before the battery is empty.

  2. the power management becomes more energy saving settings, and implementation Hibernate just until the battery is completely down.

  Well... Last few days things have changed:

  Now, when I unplug the power cable, the system does not recognize this and she continues to display: ' course Power Source: AC Power ', for the remaining capacity of the displays: "S/o" and the system is not hibernate, because he does not feel the difference.
  I'm not sure that this has something in common, buy, I found that the UPS SERVICE has been stopped, I tried to start it manually, but there is ERROR 2481: the UPS service is not configured correctly.
  Need help, please :-)
  OS: Windows XP, automatic updates, I did not notice if this happen after installation or any other measure of speciffic, I did...

  This process is correct. After disconnecting the AC adapter the laptop switches to the battery power and uses the Toshiba power saver mode the power created for the use of the battery.

  Well the ups (uninterruptible power supply) service could be responsible for this problem!
  If you are not able to start it manually, then it might be a problem with OS software.
  I studied a bit and found this article in the Microsoft Knowledge base about this problem.

  + Cannot start the UPS Service.

• Satellite L30-134: is it possible to determine the frequency of 533 MHz RAM?

  Hello!

  I have Satellite L30-134 and used a module of 1 GB / 667 MHz (sic!) for a while. Same Toshiba says maximum speed 533 MHz memory he recognizes module PC-5300 and sets exactly to 667 MHz.

  I decided to increase the RAM and bought another PC-5300 1 GB stick.
  ... RAM is only 1 GB with two modules together. The two sticks are OK - L30 sees 1 GB and works well with each of them separately.

  I know that the reason is that Toshiba couldn't work with greater speed on the two banks (or something like that).

  So. It seems to be a good idea to set the frequency of 533 MHz and it should work.
  The only question is to know how to do it? BIOS Setup is almost empty and does not have these settings.

  One advise, please (except to buy sticks more :)

  Hello

  Laptop Satellite L30-134 is a processor 1.5 GHz of Intel-Celeron-M (Yonah).
  Is this good?

  This processor supports a 533 Mhz bus and if you use modules of 533 Mhz RAM then will automatically solve this value!
  Simply put, you do not need to change anything manually! Everything is controlled automatically.

• Satellite L30-134 PSL33 - Question about the version of the BIOS and the type of DVD writer

  Hello!

  I bought a Toshiba L30-134 PSL33 the week last in Hungary. I recorded to Toshiba international warranty, so I saw that my cell was made the 19.10.2006.
  My friend bought the same laptop (Toshiba L30-134 PSL33) too (also in Hungary), two weeks ago. His machine was made on 19.12.2006.
  It's already funny, but that's not all.
  My laptop has a series number starts with X, and the machine of my friends has this starting with Z. That's ok.
  But here it is...
  I have a BIOS version of 1.3 and my friend has a BIOS version of 1.9! 0.6 gap within two months? Why?
  The other thing. I have a DVD burner called Mat * a UJ - 841 S and my friend has a LG 4082. Once again: why?
  If you are looking for Toshiba BIOS update you don't find anything! It is very interesting. There must be some updates to the BIOS, because I read here to another topis that someone has a BIOS version of 1.4. But there are 1.9 too.
  Each book was brand new when we bought.
  Any idea?
  Let me know when you bought your laptop, what BIOS version it has, and what kind of DVD player there.
  I'm wainting for the answers, because I'm really interested!

  Thank you
  Marcell

  Hey Arnaud!

  I m from Hungary, too, but I think I should speak English on this forum :) So here is my notebook, I ve bought on 24.12.06. :

  Type: L30 - 134 PSL33E
  The machine was made on: 19.12.06
  Series: starts with Z
  DVD player: LG
  BIOS version: 1.9

  You should t be nervous on the drive, the carpet * a Panasonic, and I think that s as good as LG. Why are they different? I put t know, maybe Toshiba was such at the time. In the specifications I didn't seen anything on the drive type, so I think that s not relevant. I t has not found another version of BIOS for this model, so I t understand too why and what are the differences between the versions. But if you n t have a problem with your machine, you do not need to change the BIOS. This isn't a PC, if you haven t many options to change in the BIOS.
  If you want to discuss on the laptop on the Hungarian language, I recommend the Toshiba section on www.prohardver.hu.

  Best regards

• Noisy fan on Satellite L30

  Hi, anyone can help me?

  I have a big problem with my Satellite L30-134 FAN
  It is very noisy; I can't work on my computer.

  How can I repair or replace?
  I tried to get into the fan, but I had not cut open the box.

  I hope someone will help me.

  Hello!

  The fan always runs at the highest level? Perhaps you need to clean it with a jet of compressed air. You must not remove anything.

  You can get a new fan of a FSA (authorized service provider). You can search here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
  They can also replace the fan.

• Re: Can I upgrade RAM on Satellite L30-134?

  Hello!

  My laptop is Satellite L30-134 (PSL33E-00E00WRU).

  I want to use RAM DDR2 800 Mhz 2 x 1 Gb in there. Is this possible?

  On the motherboard FSB speed is 533 MHz so I advise you to use compatible RAM modules.
  I don't know why you want to use these Rams from 800 MHz. For more performance or what?

• Re: Satellite L30 - 134 new HDD

  Any SATA2 HARD drive would work with the Satellite L30-134?

  Initially, it has a 60GB HDD inside Toshiba MK6034GSX

  Thank you

  Hello

  Theoretically, every SATA2 HARD disk should work. This interface is compatible downgrade to the old interface SATA1 and so I see no reason why it should not work.

  But SATA2 interface will not bring a performance gain. Hard drives 2.5 normal Don t have such a level of high transfer.

• Upgrade memory for Satellite L30-134

  I have a Satellite L30-134, which seems to work pretty slowly - I think that due to the large amount of photos and music from itunes.

  I wonder which is the best way to solve - buy a memory upgrade (no idea how to change memory well) or get an external hard drive?
  And if I change the memory I'll lose what is already saved on the laptop?

  I agree with Ganz most HARD drive will not improve performance but increase the disk space available HARD, it would be you can store more music and picture on HARD drive ;) files

  Upgrade memory also would not provide a performance gain of course performance could be a little better because most of the things would be handled directly in memory and not in time on the HARD drive, but generally it s not really noticeable.

  In any case if you want to improve memory, check this:

  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=25737&ft=m&St=3

  You must use DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM

• Satellite L30-134: how to make a DVD of recovery on mine?

  I want to make a new DVD of recovery like the one I had with my laptop series Satellite L30-134.

  You must purchase 3rd party applications to create the own recovery image. For example I did with Norton Ghost 2003.

• What you can say about Satellite L30-134

  I have to buy laptop for office work? and I choose Satellite L30-134? What do you think? It's my first time when I buy the laptop... I have only 700 maybe $ advise you something else? and second question why portable seria L30 have only 1 year warranty, and what cost per the warranty extension?
  My English in not very good, sorry. Thank you for your response.

  Hello

  The L30-134 is a portable simple to office applications and internet usage.
  But it s not suitable for hardcore gamer because of the hardware specifications. As far as I know that the laptop provides Intel-Celeron-M (Yonah) 410 1.5 GHz processor and ATI RADEON Xpress 200M 32 to 256 MB shared video memory graphics card.

  The standard warranty is 1 year and if you sign up on the page of Toshiba notebook you will get a 2-year extension

• How to reset CMOS/BIOS Satellite L30-134?

  Portable satellite L30-134

  Did a stupid thing earlier and started putting my supervisor for the BIOS password when my 8 month old was sitting on the couch next to me... Well, the next thing I know his hands where all over the keyboard, then press the ENTER key was pushed, aaaahhhhh! The password is now set and I ain't got a clue what it is.

  So my question: How to reset the CMOS/BIOS to lose the password or is there another way around him?

  Would like to thank all appreciated help/remedies.

  TIA

  Graham

  It is not possible.
  The entire passwords must be removed before you start with the update of the BIOS.
  Sorry, but if you don t know the password you cannot delete it and the BIOS update procedure will not work!

  ASP in your country is a last chance for the removal of the password. Guys are able to remove the password. It shouldn't be very expensive.
