• Installing Win7 on Satellite M70-173 - query of wireless internet

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M70-173, which I think to be up-to-date with windows 7. However after you run the windows 7 Advisor, he told me to download the driver of the wireless device that is:

  Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

  I put t really know what it is? Is my wireless 'card '?
  In any case, I check on the Intel site for the updated drivers for win7, and he says:

  "Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection does not support Microsoft Windows * 7.

  Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection is no longer manufactured by Intel, nor Intel provide any future software updates to support new operating systems or improve compatibility with devices and third-party software products. "

  Does this mean that I should not install Windows 7?

  How can I work around this problem, do need me to upgrade and how much would this cost?
  Thank you

  Satellite or Equium M70 is old model of laptop computer designed for Windows XP Home edition, so it is certainly not taken in charge for Win7. It is certainly possible to install Win7 on this laptop, but you will not be able to make it work with all the options that are specific to Toshiba.

  Yes it's the wireless card if this card doesn t work for lack of best drivers and the best option for you is to buy the wireless USB dongle. Ask your dealer how local it costs. As far as I know that's not expensive.

• Satellite M70-173: cannot install XP Pro

  I wonder if someone can help me. Recently, I bought the laptop Satellite M70-173. My problem is that it comes with XP Home. I need XP Pro. I bought XP Pro, but when I try and boot from the Disc... the drivers are starting to load up and then it freezes.

  To restart, the only is to unplug the power and remove the batery. I checked the disc on another laptop as a test and it works. Any ideas? One eventually is to create a windows startup disk and format? But is not a floppy drive. Many tried to copy the boot to a cd disk but does not drive. Any help would be appreciated

  Thank you

  Hello

  As far as I know that the Intel SATA AHCI Controller driver has been installed on this device.
  This driver is required for SATA hard drives. The OS Setup is unable to start without this driver, but then the installation hangs.
  On this page of intel for drivers:
  http://support.Intel.com/support/chipsets/IMSM/sb/CS-021701.htm

  But the recovery procedure works with the recovery CD?
  Have you created a CD of Drivers and tools with the function that has been placed in the assistance of Toshiba?

  You should also find this driver very necessary.

  Good bye

• Satellite M70-173 - fatal error - new drive HARD and recovery.

  Excuse my lack of knowledge.

  I received a Satellite M70-173.

  to turn on before charging readings - fatal error; I have to save all my data and replace the hard drive.

  I don't know if it's fixable and that's what I have to do. I also said that when you replace a HARD disk I need a recovery disk.

  I reside in Cyprus and don't have is not easy access to the shops of style PC big supermarket.

  I was wondering if I could use a generic HDD and if so is there a particular one that I need to acquire?

  Also

  where would I go to get a recovery disk?

  I got the laptop I can't afford to buy a new one at the moment and it is still in very good condition apart from the above-mentioned problems!

  I wish that all the advice on what type of HARD drive, I would need or is available - rough cost so I don't get ripped off and if we change the disk HARD is as easy as I read. Also where I should go to get a recovery disc and if that's all I need to fix the laptop.

  Thank you very much in advance for any help I can get.

  Peter

  > The laptop does turn on - is it possible to make a recovery of a damaged laptop disk

  How do you do if you can't turn on the laptop?

  What you could do is to remove the HARD drive, then place it into the drive enclosure HARD 2.5 external, then connect the HARD drive to another computer, to save the data.

  In my opinion this is what you could do

• Satellite M70-173 - cannot burn CDs or DVDs

  Hello

  I have an old but expensive laptop (Satellite M70-173). The CD/DVD drive is a carpet * a UJ - 841 s and can currently only read DVDs and CDs
  I have Nero installed 8.3.7.1, but it does not allow me to burn any DVD or CD
  I have all the updates that are installed for Nero, have also removed the "upper and lower limits" in the registry.

  It is not a mark of DVD or CD that I have not yet tried, but they all are coasters.

  I have the following options:

  1. try to set the drive - either with the technical assistance of the forum or replace the disk, so I decided that it is a hardware error

  2 buy a new laptop - but also like some advise on how to "clone" of the current notebook that I have so many other programs installed that I bought over the years and do not want to lose.

  I made copies pdf of burning errors I can post if necessary.

  Any help is welcome

  Kind regards
  Juan

  Hello!

  > I made copies pdf errors burning I can post if necessary.
  Yes, I think it's a good idea. ;)
  Otherwise it of a bit difficult to help you.

  But what CDs and DVDs you tried to burn? I have good experiences with Verbatim and TDK. Check it!
  And you should burn on a lower speed for CD e. g. 16 x.

• I forgot the password of BIOS Satellite M70-173

  Satellite M70-173 - I forgot the BIOS password. What can or what should I do?
  Thanks for help or advice.
  kohorta

  HI Kohorta,

  There are few things you can do if you have forgotten your BIOS password. The only effective way to reset it is to take the appliance to your nearest authorised Service partner who has the necessary equipment for re-flashing your BIOS chip. They generally must prove you your ship-owner of the laptop before it will change.

  You can find various utilities listed on some websites and also some means to bypass the BIOS password, but they are absolutely not guaranteed to work on most modern laptops.

  Kind regards

• Is - Windows 7 works with Satellite M70 129

  Hi all

  How are you guys?
  wanted to ask you if Windows 7 works with Satellite M70-129 or not?
  Toshiba is going to support or not with drivers and other things?

  Thanks in advance

  This is a user to use the forum, so if you wait for an official statement from Toshiba then you can wait until you get gray hair
  If you want to hear my opinion then this is

  Windows 7 is very similar / same as MS Vista OS. It supports only a few additional features and options.

  In the European Toshiba page driver I found the Vista drivers for this laptop M70 series and I guess these drivers could be used on Windows 7 too.

  Good bye

• Problem starting Satellite M70-173

  I have a problem with my laptop, since uninstalling Norton Internet security, I had a program to freeze. The only way to stop it was to maintain the power key. Since then, when I turn the machine when starting the machine to start and after about 1 sec no activity. I don't get the start-up of the screen. If I leave the laptop for several hours I can start and after a short period the computer freezes once more and I can't restart. I noticed several people reporting this kind of problem but cannot find any solution. Can anyone help?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  I really wonder what problems people have with laptops. I have Satellite M70-159 over one year and never noticed anything like that.

  Operating system is installed with recovery DVDs and the first thing I do after recovering is to remove Norton antivir application. Trust me I did it more than 10 times and never noticed any a? freezinga? questions. I don't know what you're doing, but if I remember well, there are two entries for Norton in Add/Remove programs.

  At first remove a? UpdateA Norton Live? and later Norton app itself. Overview you will find under http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB6B01NM000ER01.htm

  I don't know where you have founded a? several people reporting this kind of problem? but I can say for sure, it may not happen because of Norton. There must be something else. Maybe you deleted some other tips and startup procedure cannot be done correctly. It's really not easy to say what the problem is here.

  I recommend you to install OS using recovery delivered DVDs. When finished remove Norton as described in the document of Toshiba. I hope that everything will be OK again.

  Good luck!

• Satellite M70-173: spontaneous reboots

  I have a M70-173 that restarts spontaneously. It is under XP Home SP3 and has all updates applied.

  Reboots are more common at certain times than others, but the only clue that I have on the cause, it's that they seem to be more frequent when I have the wireless network card.

  I realize that it is much much to go, but everyone has ideas about what could happen?

  TIA

  I have Satellite M70-159 almost two years now and it works like the first day. No reboot and some strange questions. I always use SP2 and do not want to install SP3. After reading some comments here, I don't want to have a few problems with OS well running.

  What exactly happens? Laptop switches OFF and you need to start it again or laptop restarts as after reboot of the choice of option?
  Is there any message or something? An application that runs in the background is possibly responsible for this.

  If possible, install your laptop with the recovery image and see if the problem recurs. Sorry, but it is not possible to say with certainty why this happen. We can only speculate, here. All we have own OS configuration and use favorite applications, freeware and shareware applications. Many of them are not so good and everything is possible.

• Transfer of the old videos on DVD with Satellite M70

  Is it possible to connect a VCR to a Satellite M70 in order to transfer the recordings on video tape to DVD? If this is the case, should what cable I?

  Hello

  Since your laptop is only equipped with a TV OUTPUT, you cannot just plug a VCR on your machine, because to do this you will need a video in.
  The only chance you have is to buy an external video acquisition for PCMCIA or USB card.
  With these you´re of video capture card capable of receiving video signals outside and check/change their.

  Here´s a link that shows you an example of what I mean:

• Can I use some SDS with Satellite M70 HD?

  Hello
  I would like to ask if it's * possible using a hard drive SDD in my Satellite M70 laptop *. There are SATA III SDS HDs market, I can use a? This laptop does support SATA III at all?

  Thank you in advance for answer

  M.

  SATA III isn't taken care of.
  The laptop supports SATA I

  But since the SATA controller is backwards compatible, you should be able to use a SSD SATA III. But you won't get the performance of SATA III (600 MB/s) but perhaps something around 150 MB/s (SATA I)

• Problem of speaker with Satellite L750

  Hello!

  I had some problems with my internal speakers on my laptop Toshiba Satellite L750. I just got the laptop a few months ago, and so far, everything seems ok... except for the speakers.

  So if I leave the laptop and put it on "sleep" or "hibernate", when I come back to turn on the laptop, the sound from the speakers gets all blurry and begins to lag... I end up having to restart the laptop just to get back to normal speakers.

  No matter how long I leave the portable sleepers for - it might be 6 hours or 1/2 hour - almost everytime, I end up having to restart the laptop to solve the problem.

  It is not that I have a big problem with restart - I want to say, if this is the way to solve this problem, it's quite well! It's just boring after awhile and I don't want that there is some underlying problem that could lead to other parts of the laptop is messed up, I'm just ignorant.

  I'm certainly not a computer expert, but what I checked in the control panel and speakers news suggests that the speakers are working properly.

  I do not understand why this is happening almost everytime. In with regard to the sound being blurred and trolling, it's either the sound of the songs I listen to WMP, or whatever it is I watch online, or sometimes even both.

  Anyone has ideas or suggestions on what could be the problem and I could do?
  Any help would be appreciated.

  ? Thank you!!

  Over the last ten years, I used several laptops from Toshiba but I ve never noticed anything like that and it shouldn't happen. After the awakening of speakers should work normally.

  Are you using the original OS that you got with your laptop?
  Have you noticed this strange behavior from the first day, or later?

  Permanent reboot is not solution and maybe you should contact Toshiba service and ask for help. They should check this. What do you think of this?
