• From a Portege M200 battery mode screen

  Hello, first sorry for my English, I am not totally bilingual.
  So I got a Portege M200, with the model number: PPM21E-02QFZ-FR, serial number: 55893043G

  This work of the computer laptop but fine * when I unplug the AC adapter black screen come *, when I reconnect light screen again (he continues to work, but without screen because it serves not next).

  I have try the Fn + F5 combination, not worked, try to change performance settings in windows, without change.

  When I go into the BIOS I can make it happen this problem even if the AC is plugged by changing the value of the field 'battery saving mode' to 'full power' to the other (when I change the screen turns off the coast).

  do you know how to fix this?
  Thanks in advance

  > This laptop work well, but when I unplug the power of the screen in black, when I reconnect light screen again (he continues to work, but without screen because it does not fuel nearby).

  Sorry I mate m afraid I did not understand it correctly.
  If you unplug the AC adapter, the screen turns off.
  But what happens if the power adapter is connected again? You say that screen lights up again, but then said you that you can work but no screen.

  So I'm confused now

  In my opinion, you should check the Windows power options.
  Usually, if the AC adapter should be disconnected, the laptop will switch to another power plant (battery mode).
  In my opinion, you should check the settings of the power station, which is used if the AC adapter is disconnected.

• Portege M200: I can't use my pen on my screen

  I can't post my error. He returns constantly with insults.

  MY ink does not work on my Portege M200.

  First tab-trick stopped with the error "encountered an error and needs to close" whenever I wanted to use it.

  I don't bother with it I could always use paper and a single note so it doesn't bother me but here? ve recently discovered that I can no longer use my n p (e) on my screen at all.

  It works on the side buttons that I fly over and option comes up and I can choose but it isn't not even move the cursor around my screen.

  As far as I know the Pack Microsoft Tablet Pack Microsoft Office XP for Tablet PC (Tablet Pack) allows you to write directly with your stylus in the documents of Office XP on your Tablet PC.
  This software, you can find on the page of the Toshiba Portege M200 for driver.
  I recommend reinstall this software if it causes application errors

• Portege M200: the screen is blank when you switch to Tablet mode

  Hello.

  Have a problem with my Portege M200 and after hours of searching for a solution, I'm still at a complete loss as to how to fix it.

  Essentially, when you attempt to switch to Tablet mode - or if I press the button cover closed 'sensor' on the far right, which is essentially the same thing: the screen goes black.

  This means that I can not in tablet mode at all.

  What happens across multiple operating systems and will happen even before that an operating system has started. Of course, I checked that when in Windows, the option "When I close the lid" is set to do nothing and I even checked for any cable setting in bios but saw nothing relevant.

  As far as I know this has only started happening since I sent it for repair with toshiba a month or two back (motherboard has been replaced I think).

  No way to control it via software or am I'm going to have to send it for repair again?

  > Like as far as I know that this has only started happening since I sent for repair with Toshiba a couple months back (motherboard has been replaced I think). Anyway to control this via software or am I'm going to have to send it for repair again?

  You description, it looks more like a hardware problem as a problem of software because this happens before an operating system has started. That's why I would exclude a software problem.

  In your case I would recommend you to contact the ASP again and explain the whole situation with your laptop.

  Good luck

• How to activate the screen touch tablet Portege M200?

  Do I need a special driver for the touch-table display on the Portege M200?

  I installed about 35 drivers from this site,
  the buttons of four table on the right of the screen site work - but not the screen itself.

  What could be the reason - do I have to enable it in windows?

  Thank you very much

  * edit:

  I gues I need of the driver for "Table and pen settings", as in the next picture below on the left

  Where can I download tha driver, I can't find it here!

  Why you n t use the Toshiba Recovery CD?
  The CD contains an image with OS, drivers, tools, utilities and the whole system was already configured.

  However, I assume that you have a Windows XP.
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find all the necessary drivers.

  I checked the drivers for the edition of Windows XP and found

  -Rotation utility
  -Tablet PC button driver
  -Tablet Pack

• Portege M200 - bad scratches on the screen

  Hello

  Question, is there a chance to replace the glass on the screen without replacing it? This is the right Tablet? It has been used for a while now, and the glass is a quote scratched in many places...

  Matrix is ok, it's just the glass...

  No one knows that I can do myself? or it should be done through service toshiba? any ideas where I can buy it?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I guess something like thisyou need. Use the Portege M200 LCD mask as search terms in Google and you will find online shops where you can order the new part.

  What about replacement. After the maintenance manuals, you can exchange it only but these manuals is not a public document and I really don't think you can find it somewhere on the net. But you can try. Google all over the place. Maybe you will find something that can help you with the replacement.

• Portege M200: big screen via the port replicator

  I have a Portege M200 with APR III. I realized that the DVI Jack does not work with it, even if for some reason any, even though they are not supposed to all other ports don't. EACH of them!

  What I'm asking today is how the hell can I get the laptop out on the big screen through the APR? I tried everything, it has the chipset nVidia go 5200 FX (which is able to output DVI according to nVidia)

  I just got a Philips 20 "widescreen TFT and got tired of watching her in the stretched standard resolutions.

  One of my friends has also Tosh lappy, but it's a Tecra 9100, which will be released on the big screen without any questions whatever it is standard, it appears as an option in the Billboard settins. In addition, nVidia say that this chipset is capable of custom resolutions, but I can't find it in the updated anywhere driver.

  Can anyone help?

  Hello

  Well the Tecra9100 is not a Portege M200. Are completely different books.
  The M200 protected does not support these interfaces.
  This is a technical limitation, that the port of mouse PS/2 keyboard PS/2 port, serial port, I Link (Firewire) port and DVI port
  will be not supported on the Advanced Port Replicator III, if a protected M200 is moored.

  The following ports are supported and can be used:
  Line-in Jack, taken Line-out, USB port, port external monitor, parallel port, taken Modem, LAN jack, DC IN 15V, housing for security lock, locking the computer.
  In the documentation for the Advanced Port Replicator III is a 'fact sheet for III Advanced Port Replicator"sheet where this limitation is descripted.

• Portege M200 display issues

  Hello. I just got my new M200 tablet pc, but the display is sluggy compared to my screen Tecra S1. Looks like there is something on top of the display Assembly that makes sluggy image and the colors too. This can be seen especially on white background. Is there a plastic to remove, because I looked and I think he does not like or is it normal for the tablet PC?

  Hello

  The Portege M200 LCD screen is covered with a protective mask. This protective film is integrated into the LCD mask to prevent scratches on the LCD Panel - caused from dirt or handling - caused by the use of the pen.
  You can't compare these two screens (Portege Tecra) for Portege is tablet pc with the protective mask and Tecra has a very different display with other properties.

• Portege M200 - the hard drive failed

  My 60 GB Toshiba hard drive failed in my Portege M200.

  I tried mounting a hard drive, I had in my old laptop, a 30 GB Hitachi hard drive but the laptop doesn't seem to recognize it. Does need a Toshiba hard drive or is the laptop died, when I put the hard drive in I get message invalid startup disk.

  The old hard drive goes to a blue screen then restart the laptop.

  No there not Toshiba HDD only. I found the list of some compatible hard drives for this old Portege.
  You can use follow hard drives:
  -TOSHIBA HDD2193B
  -TOSHIBA HDD2171B
  -TOSHIBA HDD2184B
  -TOSHIBA HDD2194B
  -HITACHI G8BC00014410
  -HITACHI G8BC00014610
  -HITACHI G8BC00015610
  -HITACHI G8BC00014810

  Anyway, when you try to use new BIOS to check updated HARD drive and if default settings the new HARD drive will be recognized correctly in the BIOS settings.

  Old HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?
  Have you tried to install the OS by using old HDD?

• Portege M200 - bought on Ebay and frustration comes

  Hello

  I m new here and I want to ask for a warm welcome. I purchased a M200 on Ebay and he received two days before. The M200 hasn t had a DVD player and I have no recovery CD or software for my Toshiba. I have a Toshiba external slimline PCMIA CD-ROM, but more of him later.

  I found a lot of information based on this topic, but really nothing has worked for me, that article why I ask my questions here. So far, I'll tell you what I tried...

  I bought VISTA Home Premium and want to install on my M200.

  On my M200 FreeDOS short.

  I tried:

  1. use my USB drive as a floppy using a HP tool that simulates a USB drive as a disc of floppy (FDD). I ve a copy all the contents of the Vista DVD for my USB. Then I ran the BIOS on the M200, select FDD as first boot option, but nothing happens, it still start FreeDOS.

  What I'm doing wrong, Boot USB (diskette) works on the M200?

  2. as there is an external Toshiba CD Player included in my M200, I thought the first installation of a Windows XP disk. In the first period the player seems to not work, but after some time, it worked and I put my Windows XP on it. He loaded the disc, and the typical blue screen for the start-up of the plant came. But after a few seconds he stopped and said "could not read the data xxxxxx.xx, error 7. I tried two more times and same error appeared, only that it was another file that could not be read, and another error number.

  I read and I don't know if it's true:

  I have red somewhere that I can only install Windows XP which was used on the recovery CD from Toshiba (that the CD was not included in my M200). So I can't use for OS install the recovery CD and any other normal XP CD?

  Or is there an error with my external CD drive? Currently, it doesn't work again...

  3.

  I have red the following link to install Vista on M200 by a PXE server:

  http://flimflan.com/blog/InstallingVistaOnYourToshibaM200.aspx

  and this one

  http://home.allegiance.TV/~joem298/

  The first link says I can go point 13 of the second link:

  Umbrella and that's what bothers me. They tell me. Turn on your Toshiba M200 and press F2 to select the network. I press F2, but nothing happens, I see the Toshiba logo but nothing happens... If I press on enter, then come back to FreeDOS...

  Also on the second link, I tried to start from the point 1. But in point 5, the word:

  Unzip the contents of "BFD package full v1.0.7.zip" in a temporary directory. Open a command prompt and navigate to the temporary folder. Run the command "bfd msnet" in order to create the startup disk.

  I don't have a floppy drive. They tell me to run bfd.msnet from the command. Cmd.exe command is? If Yes, what should I type in to get bfd.msnet run?
  ---------------

  I knew that installation would be very difficult and I kindly ask for personal assistance. If you can speak German, it would be nice to answer in German.

  Up to now

• Can not install Windows on Portege M200

  Hello
  I bought a Portege M200 opportunity. I discovered that the HARD drive was broken, so I bought a new one, plus a (160 GB)
  I know the problems Porteges can do when triing to install the OS on them, so I used this tutorial for installation of the network:
  [http://blog.ryantadams.com/2008/02/01/how-to-boot-from-the-network-pxe-boot-with-tftp-and-windows-pe/ | http://blog.ryantadams.com/2008/02/01/how-to-boot-from-the-network-pxe-boot-with-tftp-and-windows-pe/]

  everything worked well. then, my xp installation 'button' was grey, so I went with this tutorial:
  http://blog.ryantadams.com/2008/07/30/option-to-install-Windows-is-grayed-out-when-running-network-install/

  that worked well, too. The installer kopies some files and the desire to do a restart. So he brought me to Windows PE, I typed 'wpeutil reboot' as described in the second tutorial. My PC has started again and then nothing happens.
  I chossed "boot from HDD" and all I can see is a black screen with a small flashing underscore white top.

  IT IS REALLY FRUSTRATING. I also tried another method, for example the back of things (like I got [my R100 to work | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=120473]), with the same result.

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  You have a smaller HARD drive you can try?

  The M200 may be limited to 120 GB HDD due to the LBA48 137 GB limit. More info here: http://www.48bitlba.com/

  Ultimately, you must use the original Toshiba Portege M200 recovery disk to reinstall Windows. You can order from Toshiba https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

• Portege M200 with Windows 7

  Hello

  I managed as probably many others to get Windows 7 on a Portege M200 the application screen with 7 key is amazing by the way. However my question is how much can I sell this for as I noticed there are not on eBay and still less one with windows 7 on it as it is rare that I personally wouldn't be able to rate b and I was wondering how much would you pay for such a rare piece?

  I agree with Akuma. Portege M200 is old model of laptop, so the best thing you can do is sell in original condition with original installation disk.

  To offer it with Win7 no sense for me because this old notebook is not supported for the new operating system to Win7 and it is not possible to use it as the original operating system with all Toshiba tools and utilities.

• Portege M200: Graphics need Win 7 driver for Hibernate/sleep, rotation

  Hello

  I recently bught use M200. I installed Windows 7 above. It works really nice.

  At the same time the internal screen stops working, the external screen in rotation.
  So right now, I don't have a working screen.
  The same problem I have with all the drivers from the 97,29 version.
  With the version of the driver 101,70 graphic glitches extra one there the second screen of rotatet.

  With the version of the driver 156.55 both screens are gray after installation of the driver...

  The pilot previus to the working version of the version 97,19 to 96.33 without hibernation / sleep (glitch)

  The works of 95,62 driver with Hibernate but external resolution is only 1600 x 1024(can be modded), but if you turn the knob to another landscape all black rest until you rotate to the natural landscape...

  The pilot 88.61 has without hibernation / sleep (gray)
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------

  If anyone has any advice for me what can I do to get Hibernate working with old drivers or the second screen with latest drivers?

  Akuma is right. For the time being, you can use Windows 7 for testing purposes. Official Windows 7 will be support begins when Microsoft, it offers for sale. So far, Toshiba or any other manufacturer offer some Windows 7 compatible drivers.

  I installed Windows 7 on my Satellite Pro P300 and use it without a driver.
