Portege Z30-C-PT263E - unable to image machines

We have received a number of these new laptops model that have been sent instead of the Z30 - A, we ordered and we are really struggling to get these imagery with our standard company Windows 7 install. I worked on this for 3 days now and I am about to throw this expensive paperweigh by the window.

Normally, we use a boot PXE from Zenworks 11 image who worked beef ut using all other portable computers manufacturers that we used. However, it is fair, with Toshiba, we will have problems. These systems (A and C) do not pick up an IP address when we use the option to boot from LAN.
With the models A, we worked around it by using Zenworks BootCD.

The C models are to be a nightmare

(1) as a model, the network boot does not have the PXE server.
(2) the Zenworks BootCD will start if UEFI and secure boot are enabled. If these are disabled, the boot hangs with the message "secure boot is disabled. This means that the image will not copy correctly as the image of Windows 7 is the MBR.
(3) the system does not USB keys. Period. The system behaves as if no USB key was found.

So my question is - Toshiba is working on a fix for these issues, or what I need to return these devices because they are not fit for the purpose they were purchased?

1. the UEFI of PXE server is capable? I think you need Windows Server 2012 or later to load boot a computer UEFI.
2 Win7 works better in Start Mode of CSM. UEFI must only be used for Windows 8 or 10.
3. What is on these USB keys? If they have a MSDOS or anything before Windows 8, they will not be able to start using the UEFI. Change the boot to the CSM (classical BIOS emulation) Mode.

  • Portege Z30 - I am unable to send SMS

    I have a Portege Z30-A-13F. On the previous Portege, Ericcson device shipped, I used the Toshiba Wireless Manager and the SMS from Toshiba utility in access card for messages (SMS).

    Currently, with the integrated chip of Sierra, I am able to access the network, but there is no interface for SMS on the AirCardWatcher tool.

    The Wireless Manager does not work (I think it only works with Ericsson devices).
    Is it possible to use the SMS with this computer?

    Thank you very much

    AFAIK this is regardless if the laptop supports the Ericson or the Sierra 3 G module.

    The Toshiba Wireless Manager should work fine in two modules.

    Check this document... He explains how to set up and establish a 3G connection via the Manager preinstalled Toshiba wireless.

  • Unable to connect 2 external monitors via the Port Replicator using Portege Z30 - 16U

    Hi all

    I need hell, I just moved from another laptop for Portege Z30 - 16U, I spent hours trying to connect my 2 external monitors to my Replicator Port Hi-Speed III 120W, but my laptop will see a monitor.

    I used 2 external monitors with my laptop for years because I do a lot or reading and I don't want to use the one and the laptop screen.

    I tried the mixture of a VGA and a HDMI and VGA cables, but nothing works.

    Can anyone tell me how I can connect and discover 2 external monitors with this laptop and port replicator, I can't believe that this is not possible, it makes no sense that Toshiba would then technilogically behind other laptop manufacturers.

    Thank you

    Liga

    Hello

    I'm not familiar with the Z30 Portreplicator, but the general behavior of the replicators of the double-displayconnector, is that 1 can be used.
    Not 2 simultaneously.

    I could be wrong, and you should easily be able to check it out - use only 1 at a time.
    First, then the other.
    If the two works when used alone, then my suspicion is right.

    I hope this helps!

  • Satellite vs Z30 Portege Z30

    From what I can tell (and confirmed to the Toshiba customer service) the Satellite Z30 is identical to the Portege Z30 except for the following differences:

    * The Portege Z30's Active Management Technology (AMT), which allows some administration remotely for enterprise environments
    * The Portege Z30 has a warranty of 3 years (1 year of the Satellite)
    * The Portege Z30 is pre-installed with Windows 7 and Windows 7 system restore partitions (and Windows media 8.1 provided) so that the Satellite comes pre-installed with Windows 8.1 system partitions and restore

    My question is if the roller on an image taken of installing Windows 7 from a Portege Z30 will transfer to Satellite Z30 machines? I suspect there will be no problems with the hardware, but I'm curious about Windows activation and if the SLP on Satellites key will match the Portege.

    Please be so kind and send feedback after your recovery image experience.

  • Portege Z30 - A - 18 M - cannot set the native resolution on the external display

    Hello

    I tried to connect two different displays full HD to my Portege Z30 - A - 18 M and I was unable to set the native resolution - maximum resolution I can put for those is 1680 x 1050... I was not so surprised by the first that I had a few problems with a native resolution when I connect to the laptop computer Satellite I had before. But then the same thing happened when I tried the other view.

    I thought that this notebook can handle a higher resolution external... Is there a way to force the native resolution of the external display in Windows 7?
    Thank you!

    Just a question: have you plugged your Portege with HDMI cable and use only the HDMI option?
    With other words went from the desktop to the external display only computer?

    I don't have this machine, but I think you should be able to see the desktop on an external device to the HD full 1920 x 1080 resolution.

  • Portege Z30 Module problem - A - 13 L 3 G

    I had a problem with a new Portege Z30 - A - 13 L.

    Module 3 G / 4G do not work. As a first step, the Air software map Watcher on the first Installation of Windows 7 detects the sim card and showed a signal, but it Air card Watcher Software still not said no reception (in German: Kein receipt).

    I also put the right apn in the profile.
    I had this problem with 2 different operators sim cards.

    Cause I wanted to use Windows 8.1 anyway I installed it with the original recovery disks.
    The original Windows 8.1 don t comes with Air card Watcher, so you must do with the instruments of the Board of Directors of Windows 8. Windows 8.1, I had a same problem. It detects the SIM, but it says no network (in German: Kein Netz). I put t found the possibility of changing the apn in 8.1 of Windows until you have a mobile connection.

    Initially the Device Manager displays the Module of Sierra Wireless EM 7305 as a network card.
    Then, I uninstalled the driver of Sierra Wireless and installed the Toshiba page.

    After that the Sierra Wireless Module presents itself as a Com device in Device Manager. The cause so much of this networker of Sierra Wireless adapter isn t it, the mobile broadband connection don t even shows charms Windows 8.1 bar upward.

    After that I reinstalled again the image Windows 8.1 with the original recovery disks.
    I saw said that Sierra Wireless Driver has been installed, but the Module EM7305 of Sierra Wireless is presented with an exclamation mark in Device Manager.

    Then I uninstalled and installed the driver manually again.
    He appears again as com device in Device Manager.

    So I think that the module has been a hardware failure. What do you think?

    > After that I reinstalled again the image Windows 8.1 with the original recovery disks.

    In the case where you have a signal but you can't connect the possible reasons could be:
    You don t have a valid data subscription.
    The name of the access point (APN), user name or password used for the connection is not valid.
    You're roaming and the selected network operator doesn't allow data services or you don t have roaming enabled for data services.

  • Fingerprints on the Portege Z30-A-12 q utility does not work

    Hello

    I need help with this issue:

    I have installed fresh windows 8.1, the same version as before, but this time I chose UEFI on BIOS. When I used the BIOS the fingerprint sensor was working fine, but now it says "unable to connect to the probe.

    I use Toshiba Portege Z30-A-12 q i5-4200 256 GB SSD, or PT243E model. I've searched the forums and found a similar problem with another Toshiba R product that was resolved by adding an exception to the firewall.

    Utility of fingerprinting with the exception of firewall, even disabled firewall all the way, but always the same problem, I added. In Device Manager, I have biometric sensors (WBF) (PID = 0010) validity under devices.

    I also checked in the BIOS to see if it it turned on and it is.
    The only thing I changed in the BIOS are Secureboot (is on) and has chosen CSM (UEFI), but I think that these settings are not relevant to the problem because they are used for starting.

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver 3 times.

    Please help me with this problem.
    Thank you very much
    Andrei Colombi

    UEFI / start MSC mode has no influence on the fingerprint sensor.

    You said you did a clean install of 8.1 to win.
    I guess that the problem is related to the driver missing or utility.
    I guess you do not have all the essential software available on the Toshiba UE driver page.

    System driver Toshiba to win 8.1 must be installed. It is very important driver package.

    But also try to register fingerprints first in the Windows settings.
    Go to the control panel? Audio equipment &? Biometric devices
    To the left, click Change biometric parameters
    Now, you will see two options: WE (marked) biometrics and biometric OFF (unmarked)
    Now, go to biometric OFF and save changes
    Now go back and click on settings again biometric change
    Now return to the biometrics IT and save the changes.

    Now, you have to click on use your fingerprints with Windows and register fingerprints.

    I think it might be useful to get the utility of fingerprinting works again.

  • Portege Z30 - B - Toshiba picture after change for Linux installation

    Hello.

    I just bought Portege Z30 - b.

    I want to replace windows with linux (fedora I think), I did the windows image by using Recovery Media creator on USB.

    So if now I will install linux I delete all the files on the SSD.
    Maybe futture I want to reuse windows, can I return to original state by using this USB?

    If I install this linux, what happens with toshiba tools accessed through the BIOS/UEFI?

    BTW: great laptop!

    can I go back to original state using this USB?

    Yes, recovery would fix the laptop back to factory settings.

    If I install this Linux, what happens with Toshiba tools accessed through the BIOS/UEFI?

    I'm afraid that I'm not sure what you mean exactly with Toshiba tools accessed through the BIOS...

    Toshiba tools do not support Linux... you can install Linux but Toshiba software wouldn't. But you can still access the F2 BIOS support and turn the device

  • Portege Z30 - customize touchpad

    I like some Toshiba Z30 touchpad options, like the 2 fingers to scroll, including in web browsers.

    However, I hate the back of the browser (it seems to me that it is controlled by the upper part of the touchpad).

    It always changes accidentally back and forth while browsing Web pages.
    Can I unable that work without disables 2 fingers to scroll?

    If I uncheck 'browser user support functions' in finger scrolling properties then 2 advanced mice also stops working.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It seems that the Portege Z30 would support the Alps Electric touchpad driver.

    As you have probably not known touchpad modules are used in different Toshiba laptops; like touchpad Synaptics, Alps or momentum.

    Mentioned modules are supported on different features so possible that the Alps touchpad would not support the same features of touchpad touchpad Synaptics or momentum module.

    Anyway, the fact is that you can find all the functions of the touchpad supported:

    Control Panel-> mouse-> last tab (device settings)-> the settings button.

    Here, you should be able to get all the touchpad option that could be modified and changed.

  • Password locked Portege Z30-A-10Z - necessary BIOS.

    Someone at - it backup the bios of your laptop Portege Z30-A-10Z.

    My laptop bios locked me by password and need to program a new bios with new bios chip.

    I can't prove ownership with Toshiba with the original receipt so that they will not help as I bought it on ebay a wile back and the seller is is most homologous :(

    This is very stupid situation now. If your laptop is locked by word password BIOS you have big problem now and nobody here can help you. BIOS password needs to be eliminated by the authorized service provider.
    BIOS password is a function of security very important for any problem with machine locked should be handled by ASP. There are several different methods for BIOS password removal and it has nothing to do with the backup BIOS or some sort of new BIOS Setup.

  • Portege Z30 - where to find a replacement keyboard?

    Hello

    I spilled water on the keyboard of my Portege Z30-A-10W (it's backlit) and some of the keys do not work. Where a keyboard replacement (back-lit with UK layout) can be purchased online?

    Thanks in advance,
    M

    In my opinion, the question is: who must share the keyboard?
    Best option for you is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They can order an original keyboard for your machine and swap it out.

    If you want to do this alone, it can be risky, small mistake and you may damage something. Anyway, each keyboard at the rear has part number that can help you find Goolging autour.

  • Portege Z30 & R30 - notice to owners + question about SSD upgrade

    HI - need some advice please.

    I am looking to replace a laptop existing and have narrowed down the choice to a Portege R30 or Z30.

    There are owners out there with a view on another machine? I read all the comments: this is the point of view of any beneficial owners I'm after. Reliability, ease of use in particular. Has anyone replaced a battery on a Z30? That sort of thing.

    There is a lot of money for me to spend - so I would really appreciate the help.

    Having said that I'm torn between the two models - I'm leaning a little towards the Z30 - but the standard SSD is too small. I am aware that the SSD is mSATA and which does not limit what he can be replaced by. I'm a big fan of the EVO series - and there's an mSATA SSD available in sizes up to 1 TB.

    Although there is not much information online - it was suggested that the current BIOS on the Z30 does not recognize mSATA SSD more than 512 MB.

    Can anyone confirm this?

    Thanks a lot, a lot.

    Unfortunately, I m not Portege Z30 owner but I want to share my knowledge on this unit.
    The Portege Z30 upgrade is a little tricky.
    First to get access to the battery and the memory modules and mSATA low cover should be removed.

    This means that you lose the warranty if you remove this cover.
    I guess that it s not worth the warranty having such expensive unit.

    By the way: models are equipped with a type mSATA ' Solid State Drive (SSD) "128 GB/256/512 GB
    But this does not mean that the biggest mSATA modules are not supported. To be honest, this detail isn't known to me, but I think that the controller should be able to handle larger sizes too.
