Re: Satellite Pro L - how to upgrade the drivers?

I found this site, found the driver update page for my laptop, and he said there were 61 available updates, and the wonderful long list there. The problem is any icon or word I click on, I don't know how to download.

Maybe its really obvious, but would somone please tell me how?

Thank you very much
Frank.

Hi Frank,.

I just have a simple question first: you have a problem with your laptop and it works correctly? If everything is ok, I can only say don t make updated driver! In my opinion, these updates are needed only if you have any problems, otherwise it of really not necessary.

Never touch a running system! ;)

    Sorry for my bad English

    Is it enough to know that its DDR motherboard?

    Hi kichenin

    Until you buy new RAM modules, you should check out what specifications you need and how much memory is taken in charge.

    I checked the specs on the Web from Toshiba site and your laptop supports up to 1 GB of RAM. The specification for the RAM is PC2100 DDR - RAM. You can also buy some RAM with higher specifications (PC2700 or PC3200), but they will operate at the speed of the PC2100.

    Recommend brand for Kingston memory for example.

  • Satellite Pro 2100: how to upgrade the processor?

    In my toshiba SP we processor 1.5 GHz depending on link . What is the best processor I can put in place of the one I have now?

    What bus speed and cache size? Am I allowed to put something like 2.8 Ghz with 512 cache size and the higher speed of the bus? where is the limit?

    Toshiba delivered this unit with two different processors Celeron (1.5 and 1.8 GHz). As you know the processor must be compatible with the hardware architecture and if you want to make a few upgrades that are realistic and do it with recommended CPU or tested.

    Another problem is that replacement of CPU on Toshiba laptops is not always possible due to the method of connection permanent CPU called TCP (tape carrier package).

Where can I find the drivers for touchpoint etc etc... Normally, the Toshiba works with Windows ME and I can not use ITunes on ME... if XP would be great - what do you think?

    Hello Jürgen

    In my opinion, if you install the operating system on the unit you you use the recovery CD provided because it has been tested and it works without any problem. But if you want to install another system on your laptop, you can use the original Microsoft OS and all the necessary drivers, you can find the Toshiba site.

    Can you help me?

    My English is bad I do not end.

    The question is:
    My computer is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 and I use the ConfigFree for the wireless, but it seems that the WiFi network is disabled.

    Help please!
    I want to know what's wrong

    Thank you!!

    Hello!

    Your wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager, or you may notice a yellow exclamation?
    Her check first because otherwise, you can get the WLAN to work.

    In addition, you can activate WLAN with the material on the laptop switch which must be set on and the FN + F8 key combination.
    Check it!

    After this Free Config should find your WLAN router if you are in the range of that.

  • Satellite A100-386 - how to upgrade the BIOS?

    Hello

    I wanted just to update my old Satellite A100-386 with 4 GB of RAM (2x2gb Crucial) instead of 1 GB, as I am now running Windows7 Pro 64 bit instead of the original XP 32.

    I read that I had to upgrade the BIOS as mine is v2.00. So, I downloaded the last of them.
    It seems to be an automatic upgrade of BIOS (S10V600.exe) as mentioned on the site Web of Toshiba.
    But when hit the .exe, I have a box of error message saying:
    "LOADPEDRV. "EXE: could not start the service.

    My question is: do I have to be 32-bit OS to run the upgrade of the automatic BIOS or is it possible to Flash the BIOS with a Windows7 64 bit OS run?

    Thanks a lot for all answer as I found no 'how to' in search on this forum.

    Best regards
    François

    Hi FPSim,

    Who said that you need to update the BIOS to upgrade RAM? The maximum RAM capacity depends on the motherboard and chipset and not BIOS.

    Official website of Toshiba, I have seen that the model supports 4 GB of RAM so the BIOS update is not necessary. Increase the RAM and everything is ok.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - how to enter the supervisor password?

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro S300-11 years and have a problem. One day, I decided that wanted to put a password for the supervisor to the bios of the laptop. Now, I remember this password, but when I have access to the BIOS Setup, I can't watch any o change option disable this password. I can't enter this password to set me a supervisor, and also I can't change some options with respect to the example, the boot sequence.

    How can I remove this password or how do I log in as a supervisor? I see no option for this, and I need to change the boot sequence.

    A big thank you.

    There, I created the following information:

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - how to change the date and time in the BIOS

    Hello

    I received a satellite pro 6100 that had not been used for some time. Windows does not work then he reinstalled with the good drive.

    When I try and windows 'enable', I get the error 32777 and the laptop is unable to connect with the activation servers that a google leads to believe me that the date and time are incorrect in the bios.

    I know that Press esc to access the bios but there is no option to change the date and time in there. I put the date / the correct time in windows, but this does not seem to synchronize with the bios. I've updated to the latest version of the bios, but this is not enough.

    How can I change or update the time in the bios?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I doubt this time and date setting BIOS does affect Windows activation time Windows doesn t affect it in my opinion. There must be another reason for this problem.
    You can activate Windows by phone?

    Normally the date and time in the BIOS can change you if you mark the date or time, and then press on + or - to change this. Sometimes you have to press PageDown/to the top according to the model of BIOS or laptop.
    Usually in the configuration of the BIOS you will find a brief info how changing the values.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - how to access the installation of Vista hidden partition?

    AHOY!

    I have a Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDA 2000R

    It had Windows Vista installed when I got it, but after a while, had to reformat, so I did, (I want to reformat my computer every 6-12 months on average), it came only with XP disks even if he got a serial number for Vista on the underside of the laptop so I installed XP. That was about 2-3 reformats there now.

    However, so that finding drivers I've seen mention of a hidden partition to reinstall Vista (which I hope it is 64-bit) and tried to do this several times but unfortunately it does not work, I guess that maybe what XP installation I can accidentally deleted or something? (Thought they had in fact on some solid state memory which could not be written more or something.)

    * Is there a way I can access it, take another that won't cost a ridiculous amount (for example download) or a nice person enough to create an image to download on a site or something that I can download file sharing? *

    I have also a spare copy of Vista (and a bit of XP) on the drive, none of them will work?

    + Another thing which I am interested in is can I get any of the preview of Windows 8 OS that will run on this laptop? Apparently it improved performance on Vista and W7 would be convenient for running on a laptop, and I have also heard say it is possible to upgrade to the full version of the preview or W7 for a minimal cost and would probably be much cheaper than other methods if possible. +

    And I'm actually quite handy with computers, so don't be afraid to throw big words at me,

    (Tried the methods found on the manual on page 3-8 ([link: http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/pro/a300/psagda-02000r/download?os=22]).)

    I have European A300 and I believe that the principle on the rest of the same models.
    A300 was offered with Vista preinstalled but without recovery disc Vista. Image that contains the operating system, drivers, tools and utilities for recovery has been saved on the HARD drive and with book factory owner was able to begin the installation of HARD drive recovery. It works with the factory only settings.

    With preinstalled Toshiba laptop recovery disk creator owners have been able to create the recovery disk that can be used if the disk HARD recovery doesn't work anymore.
    If you don t have access to this image saved on HARD drive recovery, you must use the recovery disc. If you don t have the disc that you have a problem. Recovery image can not be downloaded. All you can download are the unique rivers, tools and utilities that you can use if you install a clean version of the OS (operating system).
    On the European models, recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder called HDDrecovery.

    Anyway, A300 works with Win7 32 bit. I installed it on my machine and I m very happy with it.
    > Another thing which I am interested in is can I get any of the preview of Windows 8 OS that will run on this laptop?
    I put t know who should give you this overview, but the fact is that you get it from Toshiba. You should check if you can get it in another way.
