Portege Z830 - replacement motherboard

Dear all,

My Z830-10f (an Italian model - http://www.toshiba.it/discontinued-products/portege-z830-10f/) core i5 power over more and gives a code of 72 h (pay-per-view voltage is not more than 0.68V when the computer starts up).

After a bit of Googling, I realized that the motherboard has a serious problem and must be replaced.

On ebay I found a chance mb of the United States, but it is another model Z830 Intel Core i7 - 2677M @1. 80 GHz. Sthtiquement, motherboards look identical, so I wonder if they may be compatible.

I know I should find the exact replacement part, but it's really a jungle and probably all the differences are related to the different codes used throughout the world.

Any suggestion is really appreciated!
Thank you very much in advance!

Marco

Hello

From my point of few new motherboard of another Z830 would be compatible.
The motherboard has exactly the same dimensions, but only supports another CPU.

I guess that the BIOS would be already available on this new motherboard and the other new i7 CPU supports the internal GPU (Intel HD Graphics 3000).
So you should not get any problem with the graphics card, but also the other parts like the RAM or HARD drive...

I think you should get a blow and go with this mobo.

  • Portege Z830 - where can I get the new HARD drive

    Hello

    I have problem with my toshiba portege z830 ultrabook.
    My HARD drive died, and I don't know where I can get the new HARD drive.

    I've got guaranteed but I am forgotten registered my cell phone before when I went for repairs not authorized, because my first problem was with the motherboard.

    This motherboard has been replaced for new ones.
    If my warranty is maybe cancelled.

    Well, that's my problem to another.

    What should I do?
    Please help me. I am available to do anything.

    Hello

    I think that you should first check if your warranty is still valid.
    This can be checked on Toshiba Unitdetails page:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails/

    Where the warranty is valid, get in touch with maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country for replacement.

    But as far as I know the Portege Z830 was equipped with an mSATA SSD drive.
    This means that the laptop doesn't support HDD 2.5 common but requires special mSATA SSD drive module.

    In case your warranty is not valid, you will pay for a new mSATA module.
    Replacement should do a service provider authorized Toshiba as well because this replacement is a little tricky on this model of laptop.

  • How to control the fan on Portege Z830?

    I have a Portege Z830 with BIOS version 1.7 and I am very upset by the noise of the fan.
    I was wondering if it is possible to control the fan noise, so I started to experiment with a little utility called SpeedFan. I put in place so that the fan will not turn on until the temperature of the processor exceeds a defined number. But it does not; It seems that the BIOS is ignorant these parameters.

    So my question is how can I set the fan to work my way?

    There are not many options to control the fan.

    The fan is controlled by the BIOS. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS contains information how a cooling module must operate.

    As mentioned by Liam, you can change the settings of power plant of Win 7 more battery as a way to minimize the performance of fans
    This should help a little...

    In other http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=65068 thread, I found a neat trick of the last user... He replaced Z830 fan with the fan of Z930 origin...
    It worked.

  • Portege Z830 white spots - refusal of warranty

    I have a Portege Z830. For several months, I have 2 white spots on the screen. I went to the service company official for the Bulgaria - Stemo Ltd. - which examined the computer and told me that I did this white spots by myself.

    It's amazing! I leaned on the screen with a screwdriver trying to make a white spot imagined.

    Seriously, impossible user by all means to make this white spots. It is a malfunction of the display and the refusal of the Stemo to replace or repair, it is not understandable.

    I am adding photos of the screen with visible stains.

    Please help or just take in mind the reaction of the Stemo.

    URL: http://i.imgur.com/J4sOSjm.jpg
    URL: http://i.imgur.com/hYSIBaB.jpg

    Indeed, the screenshots show two points of light on the screen and it looks like display malfunction.

    Usually if the warranty is valid, hardware problems (if it's not your fault) should be fixed free of charge.

    So I hope that someone will get in touch with you to clarify this matter.

  • Portege Z830 - 10 H - battery is not detected

    I have a Portege Z830 - 10 h for a month and have battery issues lately:
    -It will detect no battery and only works on an external power supply;
    s ' there is a battery, it's not load - a message says '3% available, load', it lasts for hours and finally available toll-free.

    I found some ideas for removing the battery and BIOS by default in this forum, but it is a ultrabook and I have no access to the battery. I tried the reset of the BIOS by default, but nothing has changed.

    Any ideas before I go to the VAS? Thanks in advance.

    In my opinion there is nothing you can do about it. Contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
    Why do experiments and wasting your time here. You paid your new laptop and it should work properly.

    Request for replacement of the battery.
    Do you know how to find the nearest service provider?

  • Re: Portege Z830 with keyboard United States in Europe?

    Hello

    I am interested in getting a Toshiba Portege Z830. Unfortunately, everywhere I looked this unit is offered with UK keyboard (i.e. high enter key, running toward the left, / between moving to the left and Z) which is a real bother. I live in Poland and our keyboard is identical to the United States one, so I'm used to and have on other computers, I'm working on. Toshiba always offers its computers (at least in Poland) with the UK keyboard layout.

    My question is whether it is possible to buy Toshibe Portege Z830 with a keyboard layout of United States in Europe?

    I contacted Toshiba Polish hotline, but they did not support in this case.

    > My question is if it is possible to buy the Toshiba Portege Z830 with a keyboard layout of United States in Europe?

    Maybe you should order a U.S. version of Portege Z830 :(
    On the other hand, you could order a keyboard support a US provision and replace it.
    Usually, the registered maintainer Toshiba in your country should be able to provide this single keyboard.

  • Portege Z830, PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

    Hello

    I have a problem on my Toshiba Portege Z830. After that I turn to the top of the computer, windows attempts even to start, instead, I saw the following message:

    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
    PXE - M0F: Exit Intel Boot Agent.
    Insert system disk in drive.
    Press any key when ready...

    From what I understand, it seems that laptop is trying to boot from LAN, instead of SSD.

    I did that in the BIOS boot order is reasonable. It is:
    1 HDD / SSD
    2. USB memory
    3. USB WEIRD
    4. DISKETTE DRIVE
    5 LAN
    I also tried to load the defaults in the BIOS, just in case.

    I also tried to re - install Windows 7 and Ubuntu installation, USB. In both cases, Installer was not able to discover any drive where system could have been installed.

    That seemed to me like a problem of material with SSD. And it's actually the second time I'll have it with this laptop. I got it about 4 months ago and at that time I sent my laptop certified Toshiba service in Zuerich. They sent it back, saying that the material was OK and he must have had a software problem.

    To my surprise, after that they sent back for some portable reason indeed started working, I have not yet lost all data (didn't need to reinstall the system, everything worked).
    I was happy, but since now the same thing happen again, I don't know what I have to do.

    Whether any other SSD that hardware problem? If Yes, what else can I try?

    If the only option is broken hardware, how can I make sure that this time he gets permanently fixed by Toshiba service?

    Thank you
    Alan

    > From what I understand, it seems that laptop is trying to boot from LAN, instead of SSD.

    It's OK; the message appears if no other boot device could be found.

    _Question: _
    SSD or HDD disk appears on the first page of the BIOS (size of the SSD drive and the name should be visible)?
    In case the SSD drive isn't in the list, there must be a problem with this device and I guess you have to replace it.

    > If the only option is broken hardware, how can I make sure that this time he gets permanently fixed by Toshiba service

    You simply ask the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country.
    I guess guys will try to recover the laptop and where this is not possible, they would replace the faulty device.

  • Calibration Portege Z830-10F and battery

    I have a problem with the Portege Z830-10F battey.

    With no alert, closing down and when to start the load at the level start at 51%.

    In an hour, the charge is complete.

    There is a method to calibrate the battery?

    Best regards.
    Nicola

    > There is a method to calibrate the battery?

    The battery can be calibrated to unload the battery until it is completely empty and then until the battery indicator would turn to green (in some cases blue). This indicates that the battery has been recharged.
    This procedure should be repeated several times in the line.

    But be careful: even if you would calibrate the battery, it might be possible that the battery would not provide the same performance due to the age of the battery.

    Sooner or later each battery began to lose the performance load and in such a case, it s just a matter of time, when the battery needs to be replaced.

  • Portege Z830-M110 - need to make an ISO of my Windows 7 - How to file?

    Hello world

    Would you please let me know for the OEM to Windows 7 64 bit on my Portege Z830-M110, how can I make ISO file?
    I need to reinstall my Windows on a new SSD. I need to remove the current one and re-install WIndows again. I need to have the Windows CD that I don't have. My Windows is pre-installed on my Toshiba laptop that I bought in 2012-2013.

    I noticed that I can browse "Toshiba Media recovery Creator". I have the file on my laptop but it is not installed. I went through the drivers, but there is no software to download and install to make this option active. I noticed there is a download of the utility on the Australian website with 2.1.5.5109 version for PT225A - 00400G rather than my PT224E-01001YAR and I do not know if I have to install that!

  • Portege Z830-10N Windows 10

    Hello

    I see it on the table to display Toshiba Portege Z830-10N is not able to be upgraded to Windows 10 why is - this? The laptop is not that old, and the system is quite high spec as far as I know. I tried yesterday and it has been initialized to offshore, but without any reason. Can someone let me know why?

    I thank... Paul

    Have Z830.

    Recently upgraded to Win10 after invitation to Microsoft to improve the system. The process was smooth, but in the end got 5 unknown devices in the system, including Web camera. So goodbye video Skype.
    More functional keys work but only OSD system (windows) are displayed - don't know how power 3D modem for example.

    First impression of Win10 - no real advantage compared to Win7.
    If not find a solution for my problems in 1-2 months - will return to the registered system.

    Someone managed with 10 windows on Z830?

    Good luck

  • USB 3.0 issues with Portege Z830 & Renesas electronic drivers

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Portege Z830. Until today I have use any pendrive USB 3.0 external. I bought a Kingston HyperX, but when I try to use it, the port recognizes the drive, but disappears in a few seconds...

    Also when I use a port USB 2.0 back, it displays the unit, but it cannot read the contents of the USB drive.

    I checked in internet forums, and I see similar cases, but not a clear solution...

    More information:

    1. the disc works if I restart windows on SafeMode (Windows 7-64 bit)
    2. the disc works on other computers (without electronic drivers Renesas).

    I think it's a problem of Renesas electronic drivers, but I've updated, installed the modern version, power usb change, etc. but no solution...

    This ultrabook is an expensive appliance, as well as the USB key, and of course, this should be a solution...

    Thank you for your help

    Hello

    I downloaded the latest 2.1.28.0 USB 3.0 v driver available from the Toshiba UE driver page.
    The fichiers.ini (64 bit driver) contains information that this USB 3.0 host controller driver is developed by Renesas Electronics Corporation.

    I read a lot about the problems of USB 3.0 as part of different devices to USB 3.
    The questions are not related to a specific manufacturer for laptop or device in most of the cases it s a compatibility issue between the two devices, I think that's most of the time impossible to test all USB 3.0 flash drives, HARD drive, etc. with different controllers USB 3.0 for compatibility problems always seems

    I found a 3rd party page where you can find a few other drivers USB 3.0 of Renesas and NEC. But the use of these drivers is at your risk and perils do not know if they work properly.
    http://www.station-drivers.com/page/Renesas.htm

    I think you might have to force windows to use the specified driver, then first choose "Browse my computer dethrone" and then "Let me pick from a list of device drivers...". ». This must be done in the Device Manager.

    Would be interesting to know how it works
