• Portege R100 and HDD upgrade

  Hello

  I have a Portege R100 and I want to upgrade the 40 GB HARD disk. What is the highest size that I could upgrade using Toshiba or not Toshiba HDD?
  There are 1.8 "SSD? What would be the best way to update?

  Thank you
  Romeo

  I have an old Portege 2000 and it's almost the same specifications your one, but my has been delivered with 20 GB of HARD drive. I've updated it with 60 GB and it works perfectly.
  I can understand your wishes on the HARD drive upgrade, but I recommend you to be a little more realistic and spend it is logical and understandable for this older model laptop.

  So I can confirm that 60 GB HARD drive will be working well. Maybe you can use the HARD disk with more capacity, but Toshiba is now your Portege with 40 GB max. What you can do is to contact the nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask them if they have more experiences with the hardware upgrade on this laptop.

  To be honest, this laptop is not designed for multimedia stuff and in fact 60 GB HARD drive is quite enough for the installation of applications and for the registration of all the important things like maybe a few videos, photos and office documents.

  What you want to do with this laptop?

• Portege R100 and Linux - function keys not working do not and the latest version of the BIOS?

  Hello world

  I have a Portege R100 (PPR10L-13G10P). I am trying to install Linux and when you try to access function keys (F6) the computer does not allow me to... no idea why?

  Also, what is the latest version of BIOS for this computer? And where it can be downloaded?

  Thanks in advance!

  Terrence

  Hello

  At first, I must say that Toshiba doesn't support Linux in general if you are alone with this problem.
  I hope that someone will be able to help you a bit.
  If you want to discover the latest version of the BIOS, just enter the BIOS settings and check it out.
  BIOS version latest won't help you at all, so my opinion is that you shouldn't change anything.

  Anyway, the bio download page is - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_bios.jsp

  The feature keys F is supported by special tool Windows and it only works on Windows.

• Portege R100 and new hard drive

  I think to put in a larger capacity internal hard drive - 40G is now a little bit :(

  Does anyone do this? The traps? Any suggestions on compatible drives?

  TIA

  Hello

  As far as I know the old Portege R100 supported a HDD IDE controller.
  So you will definitely need an IDE HDD. I think that it s a 1.8 IDE HDD.

  I think the HDD IDE controller supports only the 28-bit LBA and it would mean that there would be larger than 120 GB hard drives not recognized.

  That's why I choose smaller hard drives.

• Portege R100 and RIPREP

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with RIS and my laptop Toshiba Portege R100. When I try to extract an image from the notebook using riprep, it keeps failing. This happens even with a vanilla XP installation. All other my laptop works very well except this model.

  I noticed that since the file riprep.sif the last lines are missing from the torn picture failure. A successful image should look like this:

  [OSChooser]
  Description = "test image - Toshiba R100"
  Help =' '
  LaunchFile ="%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%\templates\startrom.c om»
  ImageType = SYSPREP
  Version = "5.1 (2600) '"
  SysPrepSystemRoot = "Mirror1\UserData\WINDOWS".
  HalName = halacpi.dll
  ProductType = 0

  An image failed would replace the last few lines with the following information:

  [OSChooser]
  Description = "Windows Professional.
  Help = "this will install Windows Professional in a standard configuration.
  LaunchFile = "%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%\templates\startrom.co m '.
  ImageType = "Flat".

  I also checked the riprep.log file to see if there was no problem there. There are some services that were not arrested before the images were torn off. However, these services also appear in other newspapers of riprep files other images which have succeeded. I also stopped these services before starting the imaging process, but the problem persists.

  I rip an image successfully just now. I showed a colleague what happens when I tried using riprep, and it worked. I was pretty stripped, but this was the first and last time.

  I should also mention that the configuration of the network is DHCP statistics. I also tried to give a static IP address.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  If you need further information do not hesitate to contact me.

• Portege R100 and WUXGA(1920x1200) external LCD display

  I bought Dell 24 inch wide LCD display.

  I thought that my portege R100 can support the resolution 1920 x 1200 because its maximum resolution is 2048 x 1536, but it's not. TT

  Graphics chip is trident cyber xp4.

  I already tried to use software PowerStrip, but it did not work for the chipset graphic trident.

  Is it possible that I can use the resolution of WUXGA(1920x1200) using my portege R100 as regestry change or what ever?

  Hello

  I found the info that 1600 x 1200 is a resolution supported max for Portege R100. As much as I know there no way to change this through any changes to the registry. As you know the performance of the graphics card can not be changed.

  Good bye

• Various installation with the Portege R100 and Windows XP issues

  Hello

  I recently bought a used Portege R100. It came without OS and I wanted to install XP SP2.

  I know that restorations only work with PCMCIA readers adapted, but the HARD drive is formatted, so there is no recovery possible I guess.
  Here are my problems:
  -with my very old Freecom PCMCIA CD player the Windows installation CD is recognized, and it starts to load the XP drivers until he wants to start copying files installiation--> then I get the blue screen of Windows with the error 00 x 7 (virus or driver)
  -the same thing happens with my former W2k Pro installation disc.
  -With the even more ancient W98SE, strange things are happening too: installation seems to work fine, but when it comes to start with W98SE, for the first time, the system hangs up with pixelgarbage.
  -Make the 6 Bootdisks with makeboot doesn't work anymore.
  -J' also tried MS-DOS! And guess what! It worked! Loading the Freecom drivers and copy of Windows I386 folder on my hard drive with the volkov Commander (something similar to NortonCommander) worked too! So I got hav files on my drive but after running Windows NT in the i386 folder, the system hangs after some time, when it starts to copy the files to a temporary folder.

  So I tried almost everything I know. at this moment I am download knoppix to try it.

  I ran Memtest86 and 9 Diskmanager to test the RAM and HARD drive, finished two withut errors, so the priority of main parts in the installation process seems to work. Maybe it's that my IDE controller is broken?
  I have no idea, WHY does he not move windows!

  Help is hot!

  Thank you

  Christian

  It should work out that way, run you own your HD first in Fat32format - file-system, otherwise it won't work!
  Don't forget to use "smartdrive' in your BACK-commissioning, otherwise it will take a lot of time, even the 'freeze' is possible.

• Problems with RIS, Portege R100 and, possibly, XP SP2

  Hello

  I have a problem with RIS on my Portege R100, when I try to install Windows XP SP2. I have a problem where he complained that I never had a the network driver needed to use RIS, a quick search in the Intel Web site services showed that there was a new. INF file that should be placed in the folder i386 to enable RIS th work. When I start now in PXE/RIS I move forward, but only a little.

  He seems to have all the necessary files until it says: 'the installation program starts Windows', and then display the BSOD.

  It's very frustrating because I have a number of laptops to build.

  If you need more information do not hesitate to ask.

  Martin

  Hello Martin

  If I understand you just talk about installation service remotely. The problem is that Toshiba supports only the OS. BACK is not supported, but you should try to fix this problem yourself. I'm sure that he can somehow work.

  Good luck!

• Portege R100 and external 17 '' LCD - cannot set the resolution of the screen to the right

  A 17 "LCD is connected to my Portege R100 via the port replicator. The native resolution is 1280 x 1024. But the actual resolution is only 1024 x 768. The LCD screen can adjust images automatically. Actual resolution can be verified by LCD menu. This distorted text on external LCD.

  I put the exteranl LCD resolution at 1280 x 1024 on panel--> display--> setting...
  The version of the video driver is v6.4823 - 104.22_2. BIOS, common module, Toshiba screen device Cahange the Toshiba Hotkey utility for display were all updated to the latest version.

  I used Fn + F5 combination to switch between display modes: Simoutaneous, external monitor only. This has not fixed the problem.

  Someone has an idea?

  Thank you very much in advance.

  Hello

  The preferred resolution is not available on the external screen because the display driver that is installed on the laptop does not support!
  The external monitor is able to manage the 1280 x 1024, but if this resolution is not listed in the display driver, then you will not be able to choose!

• Portege R100 and Windows 7

  Hello

  I have a portege R100, which, with the new 1 GB memory is very good. I want to update from XP to Win7.
  All the world does? Any suggestion? Win 7 slow down the system?

  Richy

  If I undestand you, you have only 1 GB of memory? If you do, I'm sorry, but your system would be slow as hell. 2 GB is a minimum in my opinion.

• Portege R100 disc read error

  I have a portege R100 and today I get the message error reading disk. Despite several times to try to erase this using ctrl alt delete, the message persists. This means that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced?

  It is possible that some sectors on the HARD drive are corrupt or damaged.
  You can try running scandisk and additional, you can check the HARD drive with the application of part 3 as a generator of HARD drive

  You can try to search in the googel for this application:

• Update card WLAN MiniPCI on a Portege R100

  Hello

  I have a Portege R100 and want to upgrade the internal wlan card in an adapter 802.11 g.
  I ve has already searched the Internet, but has not found a fitting. Can you tell me if it s possible, and that I can use. Y at - it than not with integrated bluetooth too?
  Thank you, Florian Niedermayer

  Hello

  Your Portege is old enough laptop and designed model 4 years ago. I found some info it comes with mini-PCI adapter Intel PRO / Wireless 2100 LAN 3B. The same WLAN card is in my laptop Tecra and I am quite pleased. The download speed is not the fastest, but it works well enough and I can use Skype to talk with friends without any connectivity problem.

  In any case, to find compatible parts for older models of laptops is not so easy. If nobody here can offer accurate information, try contacting your local dealer or authorized Toshiba service. They are responsible for the hardware support and they should be able to give the right info. You may be able to use Intel WLAN 802.11 g (bis zu 54Mbps) with good old classic. I don't see another solution. If possible, try to get this card and test it. If this does not work you can send it back.

  Please let us know if the upgrade will be successful.

• Portege compatibility and max CPU

  Hi, I just bought a Portege R100 and wonder if the accessories that I'm about to buy are compatible with it mainly to start the fine system.

  Drive DVD - ROM Toshiba PCMCIA Slimline external 8 x
  Model PA3246U-1DVD
  (did this start ok?)

  Toshiba USB floppy drive
  Model number PA3109U-1FDD
  (did this start ok?)

  Also my R100 is a 1 GHz processor, and I wonder what is the fastest processor, it can take, because I just saw a R100 with a 1.4 ghz pentium M processor.

  Thank you for your advanced information

  Sunny

  Hello

  Slimline external DVD ROM drive 8 x / 24 x with part number PA3246E-1DVD is compatible with your device. Normally to start, you need cable PCMCIA 16 bits, but I'm sure you can use the 32-bit PCMCIA cable delivered with slimline DVD-ROM.

  Floppy drive is no problem. You can buy this one.
