• Satellite Pro L300 - cursor black screen flashing

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro L300 Vista.

  The customer earned him in because when it starts it goes to home Toshiba screen then goes to a black screen with cursor flashing at the top left. I connected external monitor with the same result. Swapped RAM as well.

  Have run Memtest (spent), Seagate HDD long test (past), Ultimate boot CD and Winternals without success.
  * F8 does not work * and no more than the resumption of the plant.

  Can enter the BIOS F2 and F12 no problems and the HARD drive is listed.

  I reinstalled Vista on CD and on reboot it goes back to blinking cursor. I tried booting from the Vista CD repair and system restore. FixBoot commands and FixMbr prompt as well as with the same result.
  I feel that it may be a corrupt CMOS sensor? It's like the OS installs correctly, but the computer loses his memory on reboot where the operating system?

  Is the battery CMOS easily accessible and removable on this model?

  Has anyone experienced these symptoms? Is - fixable at lower cost?

  Hello

  If you have clients, I guess you're a technician and hope you have a few pieces of equipment in your store.
  Have you tried to set the BIOS to default settings and check again?
  If possible try to exchange the HARD drive and test the functionality again.
  You can use laptop with Linux live CD (HARD drive not required)?

  To be honest that I think n problem t is ORGANIC and, in my opinion, the exchange of the CMOS battery is not necessary.

  Please test it with the new HARD drive and post comments.

• Upgrade CPU of my Satellite Pro L300-152

  Hello

  my laptop is a:

  Toshiba Satellite Pro L300-152
  Model no. PSLB1E-01R015EN
  Celeron 560 2.13 GHz

  Can someone tell me what CPU I can pass safely, I use it in a cool environment and care about a few 100 mhz more of her.

  Thank you for your support

  Before you start to discuss CPU upgrade, check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  My personal opinion is that upgrading the CPU won't help much and you will not realize a difference in performance for laptop. In my opinion need more RAM or SSD better and faster. This better and better performance some CPU with 100 mhz dating more than one.

• Satellite Pro L300 will not start

  I have a portable Satellite Pro L300 and he won't start (in other words the power button and not going not past the first screen).

  Works for keyboard, but F2, F8 or F12 will not do anything, I can't here the disk hard powerup but it's like no one is at home. I don't know if it's the motherboard or the onboard battery. The computer is about 7-8 years

  Can anyone help.

  It s certainly nothing wrong with a RTC battery (as you said internal battery).
  The RTC battery can be charged. The unit must be turned on and adapter must be connected at least for about 18 hours.
  But I guess that this isn't a problem.

  The laptop does not start because of a hardware malfunction, but it's hard to say what role may be affected. But you should absolutely consult the RAM modules.
  This should be the first step, since the RAM modules are easy to replace.

  All other parts should be checked by the type of service.

• Satellite Pro L300 - second defective memory Slot?

  Hi, I'm trying to install 4 GB of memory in a laptop Satellite Pro L300. This kind of thing, I did a thousand times before.

  However, every time I install a module of memory in the second memory slot, the laptop will be a blue screen when windows is loaded. Even running memtest (via bootable cd) will result in a block, so it is not for lack of Windows.

  I have the latest version of the BIOS installed (1.50)

  Each module of memory works perfectly in the main location on its own.

  With the help of a single module of memory in the memory secondary slot (even the original 1 GB module) translates the laptop does not even start.

  Is this a known issue? Or is it just a second faulty slot?

  Thank you very much!

  Maybe it's a non compatible memory module.

  What model of laptop you have exactly (L300-xxx)?
  What extra RAM you bought?
  Have you checked the compatibility?

  To be honest on this forum you will find many forums where people have described the same problem after upgrade. Most of these problems described was linked to the use of markets and not compatible good RAM modules.

• Satellite Pro L300 - windows xp does work on my laptop?

  Hello

  Why do you think Win XP does not work on satellite Pro L300?
  Of course, you can install Win XP on this laptop.

  I think that you didn't read all the threads here in the forum about this theme.
  Am I wrong? I think you should take a little time and have read some threads here
  It is really useful and could learn a little more about the installation of the OS.

  PS: All the Win XP drivers are placed on the page of the European driver Toshiba ;)

• Satellite Pro L300 - cannot use the 4 GB memory full

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 model: PSLBDE-003005AR

  I upgrade my memory to 4 GB using 2x2gb PC2-5300 667 Mhz memory. When I installed the memory and I turn on my laptop the installation always pop up. When I removed the 2 GB of memory to do only 2 GB I spend on my laptop and it works.

  I am using windows Vista premium 32-bit edition. I wonder why I do not work with 4 GB of memory. I installed the memory correctly, but it does not work to 4 GB.

  > Laptop is a Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1A - 01 L 019. Lists of the Toshiba Site the maximum memory 2 GB spec however sheets provided with the laptop shows a maximum of 4 GB of RAM.

  This chipset uses this device?
  There are different L300 with different chipsets and different hardware components.
  Some L300 would be able to support 4 GB and some are limited to 2 GB of RAM.

  So if Toshiba says 2 GB are max so it's good and you will not be able to use 4 GB of RAM.

  Welcome them

• Satellite Pro L300 will not start - cannot get into the BIOS

  Dear,

  I got a satellite Pro L300, width a HARD drive partitioned, with Win XP installed C and D with Windows 7 installed, the problem is the following:

  Days when I turned on my laptop, the OS splash screen appears, stop boot on Toshiba logo process.
  In addition, I can't enter the BIOS with the F2 key or the Boot Manager by using the F12 key.

  Help, please.

  > stop boot on Toshiba logo process
  This means that the laptop can not pass the POST (power on self test) properly and it would mean that a hardware problem has been detected on the motherboard.

  Remove one of the modules RAM (check both) and try to turn on using a single module of RAM.
  It is possible that one of the RAM modules is defective

  It would also be possible that the motherboard is malfunctioning, as you can see, it is hard to say what role could be wrong, but what looks like a serious hardware failure

• Satellite Pro L300 - USB card reader does not support the 64 GB

  HI I have a Satellite Pro L300 under Win XP that I want to attach a USB card reader. I find that I can not read the 64 GB cards. The error is that the card is not formatted. All other cards read correctly. I can place this card reader in my desktop running Win 10 and it works correctly and reads the 64 GB cards. This seems to indicate that the USB card reader works properly, and perhaps that the problem lies in the USB on the Toshiba drivers. Has anyone else had this problem and found a fix for this. I've just updated the BIOS but no improvement. Thank you

• Satellite Pro L300 keeps closing

  I have a series of satellite Pro L300 running Windows Vista Business and have problems with him closing by itself without known reason, then it restarts only sometimes.

  The startup repair does nothing.

  Hello

  I think it might be related to high temperatures.

  Have you noticed a hot air coming from vents?

  Usually the laptop stops automatically to avoid that the pieces of equipment against damage.

  So you need to check if the vents are clogged with dust and debris in most cases you can remove it using a jet of compressed air.

• Problem with satellite Pro L300 Ethernet controller

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro L300 (PSLB9A - 02L 001). Have'nt after being on the dial for the year last I was wireless (it worked well before that) but am now back on broadband but I don't seem to have any wireless.
  Checked the Device Manager and there is a yellow exclamation next to the ethernet controller and it seems there is no pilot, but apart from that, there is no further details. I tried to update the driver but it cannot find the driver on my computer and it will not search the Internet for this.

  I tried, but none of the drivers I downloaded seems to work...
  At the back of the computer laptop is a sticker - PA3613U-1MPC, I think it's the wifi card that is missing the driver but I can't find a driver for it for the life of me...

  Any help would be wonderful.

  You are right. This part number is WLAN Card. I put t know what operating system you use but for download driver Atheros http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads WLAN

  What is now with LAN driver? Do you need it too?
  In any case, visit the Toshiba support page under http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/download and there you should find good LAN driver for your model of laptop.

• Re: Satellite Pro L300 - screen resolution maximum?

  I just bought an external monitor for my L300. The screen resolution is 1920 x 1080, but the maximum available on my L300 is 1280 x 800. The utility Service Station tells me that all my drivers are up to date - is there a way I can increase the graphics resolution? Any suggestions much appreciated!

  Details: Running Windows 7 Pro SP1 on a satellite Pro L300 PSLB9A - 02K 002

  Hi PeterSouthon,

  Need to unlock the other screen resolutions. Simply uncheck the option Hide modes that this monitor cannot display as you can see on [THIS | http://blog.wildvista.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Lightroom_hide_modes-340x400.png] photo.

  After unchecking this box, you should be able to use the native screen resolution of your external display.

• Satellite Pro L300 - required external power supply (power car)

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 and want to plug it into my car supply.
  The battery is 10.7 volts and the charger is 19 volts. I do not think that plug into the car is causing a problem, but there is no mention of this in the manual.

  Has anyone tried this and it worked great.
  I didn't wan't to recharge the battery just to be able to run the laptop for more than the battery allows.

  Hello

  You need a car adapter to connect the laptop to the 12V car

  Looking in google for adapter cigarette lighter for Satellite Pro L300?
  To do this, and you'll get some hits

• Satellite Pro L300 upgraded to Win8 but I would like to update the drivers

  I have upgraded to Windows 8, but I found the Wifi adapter needs to be reset frequently (it seems to be without a cause) - Troubleshooting Windows 8 solves it by resetting the adapter, but I thought there will be a fix for this?

  When I tried to update the drivers I found that the L300 is not (in the not extensible or expandable lists)-is the L300 compatible in this respect by another model? Or can you suggest how to update all the drivers of Toshiba for this model.

  Thank you

  Your Satellite Pro is the model of laptop old enough and not supported for Win8.
  It is difficult to find drivers for the notebook not supported models and old.

  Problem is that if you make the decision to do so anyway you are on your own and can be all just lucky if everything works properly.
  > is the L300 compatible in this respect by another model?
  It is not easy to give you the right answer. What needs to be done is to compare each hardware component important as chipset, GPU, chip sound, LAN/WLAN with other models and see if some Win8 drivers are available. It is not so easy.

  For example: Toshiba Satellite pro L300 offers 4 different hardware platforms. One you have? What is the model number of your machine?

• Satellite Pro L300 shows ACPI ATK0100 Kernel Mode Driver error

  I have a Satellite Pro L300 with Windows Vista and it has been fickle to say the least, making me restart the system several times.
  The last two times she since continued to come up with an error message saying "cannot open ACPI ATK0100 Kernel Mode Driver", and I understand that it is perhaps what is originally that there problems later.

  I tried updating the BIOS, reinstall the drivers and, seeking answers and, of course, reinstall the whole system, but I still get this message every time I turn on my laptop and I really don't want that it gives me the blue screen of death again - please help me!

  Thank you.

  Stand by.

  You ve done clean install of Vista with initial recovery DVDs and you get this error in any case (no additional software is installed)?
