• Portege 3490 - new Seagate hard drive (20gig) - cannot install OS

  I bought a second hard Portege 3490 and the hard drive was broken. I got a 20 GB drive to spare by Seagate (model 92011). I have a USB and PCMCIA cdrom disk. I downloaded disk hard Seagate tools/drivers installation and launch the setup and set up all partitions etc..

  Whenever I try to install windows (XP Pro, 2000 or even 2000 Server), I insert the cd it works through the first step of the loading of the drivers etc, then as soon as it gets to the part where he says is now "setting" start ", where he would normally the first reboot, I get a blue screen error, it is usually the"Inaccessible_Boot_device"error message, but sometimes He won't say. I get the same problem with XP or 2000. The only CD that I have are version OEM of Windows 2000 or XP pro, not specific Toishiba.

  Please can someone let me know what this means? Is the disk hard not compatiable (my dealer says Toshiba it should be), or y at - it problems with the drivers, etc?

  Any help would be appreciated, I was stuck with this for centuries and make me desperate. The machine has no warranty dealer wants £150 just to take a peek. I'll happily pay cash for a working solution.

  Hi Rhodri,

  Check your BIOS settings to make sure that your list of boot device is set correctly and in the right order. Maybe it's that the system tries to re-boot during installation, but the bad device.

• Portege R100 - how to install after Exchange of HARD drive?

  Hello world
  I'm new to this forum and I want to know exactly where I'm wrong. I have this portege r100 laptop and the hard drive gave a few days ago. Because I am a novice when it comes to computers, I left the laptop with an engineer, that I found on Kijiji.
  Unfortunately, the engineer could not load any operating system on it. I go through this forum and loads found useful answers, but alas, still the same problem.
  Could someone guide me in the right direction. I would be really grateful that I have exams coming next week and really need the laptop.

  I don't have any CD-ROM compatiable only an external floppy drive.
  I tried to install using the windows startup disk (x 6 downloaded from the microsoft Web site), but after the 6 disc it asks me 3 options.

  1. press ENTER to install
  2. recovery console option of
  Output 3.F3

  When I press on enter is not superimposed my cd rom which I figured out is not compatiable. If I leave the connected cd rom it says unmountable boot disk. It gives me a bsod. Is there another way, I could install the operating system using only the FDD.
  I'd appreciate it really all the help of the experienced members of this forum.
  Thank you.

  First of all, you can not use any external CD/DVD drive... you must use a compatible and recommended by Toshiba.

  Secondly, I you could try to connect the HARD drive to another computer using the USB caddy.
  Then copy the i386 to the HARD disk folder.
  Then, you can run the winnt.exe file to start the Setup program.

  Once configuration is complete plug the HDD to the Portege and tries to start
  It is only theory, but maybe it won't work

• Portege R600 built-in HARD disk error

  My Portege R600 works very well until today when he came with the built-in "Disk error" message when I turned on it. He then lists the following:

  Intel Boot Agent GE v1.3.24

  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - MOF: exit Intel Boot Agent.
  Insert system disk in drive.
  Press any key when ready...

  I'm leaving on a trip to South America and do not have access to the system disks.

  Can someone help with this problem?

  Hello

  If you get an error of HARD drive and after that the message PXE boot, it seems that your internal HARD drive is not recognized more...

  Have you already checked the BIOS if the HARD drive is it recognized?
  Otherwise I think you need to replace the HARD drive :(

• Portege R830-10 q HARD drive slot?

  Hello.

  I have a Portege R830-10 q with 128 GB SSD inside, but it becomes too small.
  Is there another location for normal HARD drive, or what I have to buy [this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/261480744399?limghlpsr=true & hlpv = 2 & ops = tru e & viphx = 1 & hlpht = true & lpid = 108 & devi this = c & adtype = pla & crdt = 0 & ff3 = 1 & ff11 = ICEP3.0.0 & ff12 = 67 & ff13 = 80 & ff14 = 108]
  and throw the unit DVD to the HARD drive inside?

  Thank you

  Portege R830 supports only a single disk drive HARD or SSD.

  With regard to the optical adapter Bay HDD/SSD Caddy:
  I'm not quite sure if BIOS would be able to use suchpart m.

  In the past, some computers laptop Toshiba supported Select Bay who was allowed to use the HARD disk enclosure in the Bay of ODD, but many books don't supports this functionality.

  In the worst cases, you need to replace your current HDD/SSD with the biggest HDD/SSD

• 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 R500 USB Extrenal HARD drive question

  It is, if I connect an external USB HDD's does not detect and I use the laptop after having removed the USB HDD applications hang up and it wont even stop.

  Can someone share a light on this problem?

  Thank you.

  It is not easy to share a lot of light on it. Who is the manufacturer of this external HARD drive? You have a software with this HARD drive that needs to be installed first?

• Portege 7100 - what size HARD drive it does support?

  Hello

  my old man (I'm a student, so no money for a new) Portege 7100 (ct) has a small hard drive, so I want to shift to a bigger... but what size HARD drive supports the 7100ct? (and that's a 1.8 "or can I use drives 2.5"?)

  thx for any help...

  Hello

  As far as I know that your unit has standard 2.5 "hard drive. Unfortunately there is no public record of such information. Accurate information, you can get that from accredited service partner or even some HARD drive supplier.
  In my opinion, your device must be able to manage with maximum up to 8 or 10 GB HARD drive. For me, we know that some offering it can manipulate the BIOS with special tools and after that BIOS recognize a much larger capacity HARD drive.

  Try to pick up some information on the net service partner or call your country. I believe that consultation service is free.

  Good bye

• Portege M300 - replacement of HARD drive failed

  Dear all,

  I have a Portege M300 I bought around 3 or 4 years and I am very happy with and without any problems. The laptop came originally with a 60GB and I wanted to upgrade to one with greater capacity, a 160 GB! My laptop is about 1.2 GB of Ram and runs on windows XP SP3.

  I recently bought a Samsung HD-160 (160GB) which should be compatible with my laptop. After installing from scratch and used for about 2 weeks, the computer suddenly stopped. HARD drive stopped spinning and a #0 ERROR came when I tried to restart. There was NO WAY to drive HARD turn again so I contacted Samsung and they replace. The HARD drive has a slight smell of burnt component but very light.
  I replaced the HDD failed with a 2nd replacement and to my disbelief, the SAME THING happened again just after 3 hours of use! I contacted Samsung and once more they will send replace me, with the same type of hard disk. I tried to get explanations of Toshiba and Samsung for why this happens, but so far I have no explanation.
  Without hesitation, I gave my original 60 GB Toshiba drive who was thankfully still my documents and the laptop is happy again touch wood.

  What I am doing wrong? can someone help me please go to the bottom of this so I do not experience the same problem with my 3rd replacement? I wish I had a bigger hard drive on my laptop and I think all of them must be compatible. I buy one that should be compatible with my Portege M300. Both are valued at 5 v

  I have to add to what has just occurred to me now that I have installed all the Toshiba original programs too on my Samsung HDD out of Windows XP, including the utility that protects the disk in case of Vibrations. This could be the problem by any chance? This utility only for Toshiba's brand HARD drive? Any ideas or other suggestions on this issue please?

  Thank you very much for your attention.

  Portege M300 is pretty old laptop and maybe you should be careful with these upgrades.
  According to specification for laptop, your laptop can handle with 100 GB hard drives, but I'm sure you can use 120 GB as well.

  Then maybe you should try to upgrade the disk with 120 GB of HARD drive to see if everything will be OK. I think also 120 GB is enough and you have enough free space for the data backup.
  What do you think about this?

• Portege M700 - protection of HARD drive problem

  Hello world

  I searched the net for a full day now try to find answers to this.
  Note, I am an accountant and not a computer geek.

  I have a laptop Portege M700. I am updating from Vista to Win7.

  Here's the problem:
  -Initially tried to uninstall Toshiba HDD Protection via Control Panel and got the message error "internal error 2753 setupftc.exe.
  -Then searched the Internet and realized that I had to stop the service first. Note that I does NOT initially stop the service in the Service Manager.
  -Now went in the Service Manager to seek Protection of HARD drive and it is not at all.
  -Returned east to configuration-Toshiba HDD Protection Panel is listed as a program. It will not always uninstall it... the activiates Assistant uninstaller, and after a few seconds, he simply says the same error message is ' «internal error 2753 setupftc.exe»»

  -a search on the internet about this error does no useful result. They underline that the registry cleaner programs. I have NOT installed the registry cleaners.

  - then I went to the registry and created a backup of the registry.
  Then tried all the items containing 'HDD Protection' and started deleting them hoping that it would work.
  Then I tried to uninstall.
  The computer popped up a message stating that a restart is required.
  Tried to restart and got a blue screen.
  Then restared in safemode, reloaded the old registry file and VOILA the computer is back to normal again.

  BUT...
  I can not even uninstall HDD Protection. Get the same bloody error.

  -then downloaded the site Web of TOSHIBA HDD Protection file.
  Try to install this file... I get the same error, i.e. "internal error 2753 setuptfc.exe.

  Ok.. now, I'm ready to give up.

  Really, I didn't wipe my comptuer clean to do a fresh install, because it's such a big hassle. And I'm an accountant, not a computer expert so I don't know what to do for a new installation.
  For the time I've wasted on this already, I probably just to find instructions on the net and then made a complete new installation.

  All the advice to fix it, pleeeeeeeeeeeease! : ??

  Thank you.

  So clean Toshiba HDD protection tool didn't help installation then some registry entries must be screwed to the top.
  Believe me, best you can do is to install the OS to aid installation of HARD - disc of recovery http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm recovery mode or use if you have a.
  After a clean install of Vista, everything will work correctly, and then you can start with the Win7 upgrade procedure.

• Libretto U100 - exchange of HARD drive

  Is it possible to change the hard drive of a Libretto U100 without voiding the warranty? Does anyone tried to do it again?

  Change HDD on the Libretto U100 is very complicated and without maintenance manuals, you can not do this. Believe me, booklet design is quite complicated and I don't think you can do it yourself.
