Portege M200 - set at 598 MHz

I have a Portege M200. The report processor it's 1800 MHz, but seems to be fixed clocked at 600 MHz. The program HWSetup installed (version 4.03) doesn't have a tab CPU even if the documentation indicates that it should. Downloaded HWSetup 4.2 but it brings a 401 error when I run the installation program. I would get the processor runs at full speed - can someone help me understand how to do this?

Thank you

Hello David

Can you tell us more about your Portege? Is this unit second hand or maybe exchanged motherboard?

    The key is a utility called 'pom200t1 '.

    You will need the following.

    A floppy disk or if you do not have an external floppy drive, or if you are common sense to be able to boot a file from a CD player.
    You must also WinImage, as all files that you download come as .ima files
    Download pom200t1 - V1.5.zip and pom200t1.zip (if if doesn't work either).

    You can find them here:

    http://www.stormpaintball.com/Toshiba/pm765.bin (this one is a ditch last attempt).
    Then follow the instructions on the site I posted before:

    Symptom: CPU remains constantly 598 MHz.

    * Process: *.

    (1) boot in the BIOS. (Press "Esc" during the boot process, before the loading of the operating system, but after having entered your password, if you use the startup password protection).

    2) look under 'Other' category.

    (3) if the motherboard does not have enough information about the CPU, the category 'Dynamic CPU frequency Mode' appear on (you won't see it).

    If the laptop is in this state that he won't ever faster than 598 Mhz until you perform the following procedure.
    Note: Although this utility said it's for a Toshiba Portege M200, the particular difficulty you need may work on other Toshiba laptops.
    He has worked on 3 different Toshiba Satellite Pro M15 S405s, but * USE at YOUR OWN RISK *.

    (1) start Windows and create the startup disk in the pom200t1.exe file.

    (2) boot from the diskette you just made.

    (3) in the menu, select the initial repair option 2 "set config".

    (4) in the following menu, select option 1 'Initial cofiguration"(misspelled)

    (5) after a few seconds, you should see "Writing a file is over!" and the laptop restarts automatically without asking for confirmation.

    (6) when restarting the laptop go back into the BIOS and look under 'Other' category. You should now see the "dynamic CPU frequency Mode". Make sure it is set to "Dynamically switchable" for the CPU limitation.

    7) restart Windows and make sure that the CPU can throttle in normal conditions. The Intel SpeedStep technology icon should now be in the systray. Go to the Toshiba power management / Power Saver Properties and update all of your methods to save power to use technology SpeedStep that you prefer (fixed or automatic) and mount all caps speed processor, or you can go above 798 MHz because cursors will always be to their previous settings (4 or less), while they can now go up to 7. Let me know how you go.
    I have fixed the CPU now just need to find out why my fan only works when I activate it manually!

  • Portege M100 with PM 1, 2 processors, but the only race on 598 MHz

    Please help, I have 10 pcs M100 and 7 of them have no setting in the Bios to "Dynamic CPU frequency setting" (all the CPU speed, still weak, still strong, dynamic). The laptop which do not have this setting to always operate at 598 MHz I have already check with Sisoft Sandra and in windows system properties. Properties always show that computers laptops Pentium-M 1, 2 GHz 598 MHz. no different between running with the mains or battery adapter.

    Other one with dynamic CPU frequency setting, can dynamically adjust processor clock. They can function normally to 1200 MHz.

    The dynamic mode of the CPU frequency is available in Toshiba HWSetup.
    There you can switch between mode dynamically switchable, still high and low fashion.

  • Re: Portege M200: need to start Win XP boot disk

    Hi all

    I'm looking for a boot floppy to boot XP tablet edition disc 2005 on my Portege M200.
    If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

    Hello

    You must initialize disc?
    I wonder why you need this disc?

    I think you don t know a fact. The diskette of starting in not necessary but you need a compatible CD/DVD player if you want to start from the CD or DVD.

    The Portege M200 supports the recovery through the BIOS (by pressing 'C') with the USB 2.0 card and PCMCIA (16-bit and Cardbus).

    _Following and controllers (USB, PCMCIA) can be used: _
    one) Toshiba, PA3352E-SCD2, CD-RW/DVD-Rom USB 2.0 drive

    The setting of 'PC Card Controller Mode' in the BIOS should be 'Automatic Selection '.
    This means that you have nothing to change in the BIOS, because it is the default value.

  • Portege M200 - device unknown in Device Manager

    I did a clean install of Windows XP on my toshiba portege m200 (Tablet). I have most of the devices drivers installed, but there is one that I can't understand. The device manager says I have an "unknown device" on my "Intel 82801 dbm lpc interface controller.

    What is it? I thought it was the chip set, but I had installed the Intel chipset drivers (twice, just to make sure that I really did), but it still reads as 'unknown device' on ' Intel (r) 82801DBM LPC Interface Controller - 24CC.

    To resolve this issue go to the device, right click on the unknown device, Manager and then select set to update driver.
    When the Hardware Update Wizard appears, select the advanced option.
    From the next window, select the 'don't search. I will choose the driver' option
    Now, go to the Intel announcement and select good "82801DBM LPC Interface Controller - 24CC.
    Click OK and now it should work.

  • Tecra M1 - Pentium M 1600 MHz locked 598 MHz

The CPU tab does not appear in the utility of Toshiba hardware configuration in order to put the "dynamics of the CPU frequency" mode, as this option (dynamic CPU frequency mode) does not appear in the BIOS, on the first page, under OTHERS, as it should.

    Hi, you are right, this will occur if the motherboard has been changed. Just do an update of the bios. Then it should operate normally.

  • 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.

  • Vista on Portege M200 - some problems with nVidia display driver

    Hello

    I recently decided to update and perform a clean installation of Windows Vista on my Portege M200, now that Toshiba have released official drivers for this machine.

    Everything works fine, EXCEPT the nVidia display driver. I have the following questions with the driver Toshiba provides for this machine (97.52 version):

    (1) when the screen turns off to save power, the backlight does NOT turn off. Screen turns off but the backlight will stay lit.
    (2) for the recovery of the standby mode, the backlight is OFF. You must use the shortcuts Fn-F6/F7 to change the backlight level manually, that will bring him back.
    (3) external monitor does not work (with command Fn + F5 or nVidia control panel). External display is always blank.
    (3) video playback in WMP is very chopped (a secondary concern for me).

    Is there a chance that Toshiba could finally get a updated driver that would set out the? That would really make this machine fully functional in Vista.

    Thanks in advance for any help or information.

    Null value

    Hello

    > Are there opportunities that Toshiba could finally get out an updated driver?
    I noticed that from time to time new updates of pilot (any series of notebook) are released on the European driver Toshiba page and, therefore, I m optimistic that new updates are available

    But note; usually, various problems can be resolved by installing some patches MS Vista and missing patches.
    Then visit this [MS update website | http://www.update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us] and check if all the patches are installed.

  • 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 - 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 BIOS update running Windows 7?

    Hello

    I recently took a Portege M200 and installed (via PXE - network installation) Windows 7 above. I want to upgrade the BIOS as is always in the original BIOS (1.1). I downloaded and extracted the pkg and tried to install through Windows but it says that my OS is not supported. I don't have an external CD drive or floppy drive - how do I update the BIOS? I tried to put it on a USB key, but it doesn't seem to be an option to boot from USB.

    Thank you!

    > I downloaded and extracted the pkg and tried to install through Windows but it says that my OS is not supported. I don't have an external CD drive or floppy drive - how do I update the BIOS?

    Seems that BIOS cannot be updated because Win 7 is not officially supported on this good old classic.
    However, AFAIK the VAP (value added package) is required to run an update of the BIOS. So, try to install the VAP. Choose this tool which is available for other models of laptops.
