• Maximum capacity of HDD for Satellite 1800 400

  I have a PC laptop toshiba S1800-400 with a 13 GB hard drive. Can I upgrade to a hard disk of 40 GB or 60 GB? The bios will support this? (I've never done an upgrade of the BIOS, so it always uses the version of 2001 I think)

  I used the Toshiba forum advanced search option and found a lot of topics on his theme. These two is only a small part:

• Satellite 1800-400 does not start, or crashes after upgrading RAM

  I have the original configuration of RAM for the S1800-400 with 120 MB. I bought a 256 MB RAM with the following description: EXT256-3069/JR, MEM 256 MB RA Toshiba Satellite PRO 4600 series C650, PIII-7500/750/800 #PA3069U (I think the brand is Transcend).

  When I put this slot in the machine, keeping the original and start the computer, it does not start, either on the initial screen of freezing before downloading anything either or that goes to the screen where you can start it in safe mode, but then it does not start.

  I removed the new RAM and it works well again.

  What can be the problem:

  (1) is this new RAM is not compatible with the computer? Based on the selections of the internet service provider, it should be (it's a Portuguese company with their own memory configuration options).

  (2) the computer can work with the original 120Mo and the new 256 MB, or should it be both the same size/brand?

  (3) is there any other problem that I don't have?

  Hi Ricardo

  I agree with feliks.
  The module is not compatible and not taken in charge can be responsible for your problem.
  The best way is to use the Toshiba recommended of the memory modules.

• Satellite 1800-400 ME upgrade to XP Pro?

  All successful one satisfactory to a Satellite 1800 400 upgrade or similar (384 MB of RAM, 20 GB HD, 800 MHz Celeron) of Win ME?

  Would prefer to upgrade to XP Pro, but pure install 2nd choice.

  If I have the HD format for a clean install, an updated XP version would recognize the recovery CD Toshiba a legitimate copy of the ME - I've heard that there may be problems?

  I have the intention to upgrade the BIOS and collect all the drivers available for this model proposed by Toshiba for XP, but will there still be problems with all the material?

  Toshiba drivers must be loaded in a special order, and that is during or after installing XP?

  XP is likely to be faster or more slow/about the same thing as ME, with above hardware specifications?

  All advice welcome, because I have not upgraded the OS on a laptop before, and the potential problems seem more important than with desktop computers.

  Hello

  I put t not see why Windows XP Home edition should not be working on your device correctly. On this forum I have read many topics where users present on Windows XP Home edition on the old models as yours.

  Please see the download page for Toshiba under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp and you will find drivers for Windows XP Home edition.

  After installing WXP install display and sound driver first. Then install other drivers of material. The next step is installation of Toshiba stuff:
  Common modules
  Controls
  Energy-saving
  Public services.

  It is important to install common modules like the first.

• Satellite 1800-400: cannot run/install applications after installing XP

  I bought a Satellite 1800-400 for my daughter for her school work, formatted, installed XP pro, and when I tried to install the software for a wireless card (3Com) for internet access, he said only: "the application failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

  So I tried another card (Belkin) software it says "D:\ is not a valid Win32 application". So I tried to install the printer software and he says: 'the entry point of procedure not found in KERNEL32.dll dynamic link library.

  So I thought I'd try XP Home, exactly the same, Win 98 and WinME function without problem.
  I have also flashed the Bios, but it made no difference.

  Someone at - it ideas

  Simes

  Hmm, it s very strange. For me, it seems that some applications are not compatible with Windows XP. I m not 100% sure why it happens, but I put t think that it s a RAM problem because the other Windows Me and 98 to work properly.
  But nothing is impossible

  What version of BIOS is installed on your laptop? On the Toshiba page pilot 2.20 BIOS was released.
  If your laptop uses an older version, you can try to update.

• How to connect by Satellite 1800 400 on TV?

  Hello
  I want to connect to my Toshiba Satellite 1800/400 on my TV, but I don't know how to install a secondary graphics card. My graficscard is a Trident Cyberblade Ai1 video accelerator.
  Please help because I get hopeless and frustrated because I need for school

  Hello Kevin

  As far as I know you don t need to install a secondary graphics card. The laptop got the output video output jack to transfer NTSC or PAL data to external devices (TV).
  If you want to activate the TV-out function, please go to display properties, and then click Advanced. Now click the device tab to display.

  There you can set the parameters on television and in the multi-screen TV/LCD devices section. Don t forget the TV Standard (PAL or NTSC).
  However, with the FN + F5 key combination, you can choose between the LCD and TV.

• Satellite 1800-400, ERROR! F3D failed

  Someone can help me troubleshoot above?
  First of all what does this mean?
  I had a very small Satellite 1800-400 with me running. I was convinced that it was full of viruses so wanted to start all over again with the recovery disk. All I got was this error.
  In addition, it is said software being installed, please wait and a 0-100% bar. (nothing happens)
  Being a novice surf autour, I picked up a new BIOS @ this site. After the install was not successful so I used the command chgbiosa on the a:\, this gave me a command prompt to enter the biosfile in and I have upgraded to version 2.2 (I really thought he could help silly)
  Retry the recovery disk didn't give no solution so I'm really looking forward to all the solutions to this disaster.

  Hi sms,.

  Sounds strange! Is the recovery CD in good condition? Is this perhaps a scratch?

• Satellite 1800-400: CD Rom is not working / can't use recovery discs

  Hello

  I have a satellite 1800-400. The cd present in Device Manager, but it does not recognize the cd is in the drive. I need to use the recovery cdsas the system was damaged virus etc. Is there a way I can work around the problem of cd player.

  Thank you

  Hugues.

  Hi Hugh,.

  When you try to start the laptop from the CD made in fact tru to access the CD-ROM or it directly boot from HARD drive?

  If the notebook is actually an attempt to boot from the CD but do not then it can mean that you CD-ROM is defective or that the recovery disc itself is damaged in some way.

• Satellite 1800-400: How do I install the driver for graphics card

  Hello

  As I mentioned in the topic I downloaded a graphics card driver
  http://be.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com
  for my Satelitte 1800-400.

  The problem is that the Once unzipped downloaded zip file does not contain a Readme with some information or an .exe file to install.

  I have no idea what to do with it, but I need the driver car-DVD playback is disappointing.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hello

  Well, if the folder doesn't contains all .exe files, then you should try another option.

  Go to Device Manager and select the graphics card. Then right click and choose the option install or update driver. Then choose the driver source.
  This procedure should work properly.

• What is an update of RAM max for Satellite 2800-400?

  64 MB, is built in (?). I found in the specifications max 192 MB, but I think that it s not up to date. Can I use RAM of 256 MB or 512 MB module?

  Please see this page:
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=7170&ft=m&St=3

  Satellite 2800-400 comes with 64 MB or 128 MB internal memory.
  If you have a laptop with 64 MB, you can improve the memory only to a maximum of 192 MB.
  The Sat 2800-400 with 128 MB internal memory can be improved up to max 256 MB!

  In both cases the 144-Pin PC100 SODIMM 128 MB module is greater, which could be inserted!

• What spec RAM required for Satellite 1800-921?

  If anyone can help with suggestions to increase my RAM. Crucial say its obsolete!

  Hello

  The modules are obsolete? I put t believe that!
  Satellite 1800-921 simply uses modules SODIMM 144 pin PC100 and you should check out some offers from online dealers.
  I m you will find something interesting!

  Oh the laptop supports max 512 MB and that's why you can use modules of 2 x 256 MB max.

• Satellite 1800-400, what CPU?

  Hey people,

  Just got me a second hand 1800-400, but it is a bit slow. I have stopped more RAM (256) to go with the 128 that is already. I hope this will help.
  But I was thinking, what other/faster CPU can this small handful of the machine? I can get a P3 1 GHz cpu on ebay cheap but it the system to run it?

  See you soon
  SYM

  Hello

  I looked at some other Satellite 1800 models specifications and discovered that they use different processors. Most of them use Celeron 1.0 GHz and 1.1 GHz, I also found a model with P3 1.0GHz (1800-804). But I think it's using a different chipset, so I don't know if you can use a P3.
  Besides I don't think that a little better CPU will increase the performance so much. Upgrading RAM is more effective.

  Good bye
