Re: Satellite R850-12R PT52CE Win7 sees no SSD drive

I have laptop Toshiba Satellite R850 - 12R PT52CE and recently bought Adata SP900 256 GB SSD drive.
BIOS can see this disc, but after I tried to install Windows 7 64-bit SP1, at the stage where I need to select the location to install it, it showed nothing.
So I can not select anything.

What is a problem?
I tried to search for drivers for Windows 7 AHCI, but found that for XP.
In the BIOS, I tried to put AHCI also Compatible mode, but were also unsuccessful.

Would be nice if someone could share the solution.

Hello

AHCI driver is not necessary for Win 7, since this win 7 already contains this driver.
What you can do is to add the Intel Rapid storage technology driver that is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

    Hello

    Of course, you can install / recover the computer laptop back to factory settings.
    To do this, you will need the drive recovery Toshiba for this device.
    This disc can be ordered here:

    But the Satellite T110 does not seem to be equipped with an internal optical drive.
    So, you will need to connect an external USB ODD in order to be able to recover this unit.

    You will buy this external USB CD/DVD drive or you would borrow such a device someone

  • Satellite R850-18W: replacement of the device map LAN with Intel centrino 6235

    Dear members of the Toshiba forum.
    First of all excuse me for my bad English because my native language is Dutch.

    I recently bought my third Toshiba laptop Satellite A R850-18W.

    I already bought an original adapter replacement for the card Atheros AR9002WB wlan.
    Change the adapter in the notebook is easy, I've done it before.

    The only problem is, I couldn't get the bluetooth works so I put the original Atheros card in my Satellite R850. Everything is working, wifi and bluetooth.

    But I want to buy a router with the possibility of 5 GHz band and take advantage of the speed less sang band of 5 GHz. That's why I bought the Intel centrino card 6235.

    I need help in how to get everything working as it should.

    Should what software I uninstall to avoid problems.
    Do I need to uninstall the drivers for the Atheros card first?

    I think and I hope that it should be possible to make such a minor change in the configuration of this laptop?

    I guess that it is not an easy way, while Toshiba has also laptops were they use the Intel centrino advanced-N card 6235. I was hoping some sort on a driver easy software installation and connection of Toshiba software.

    Hope someone can help me with this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Not very good if you will be able to use this Intel Centrino WLan card.
    There is a similar threads on the Intel Centrino Advanced 6230 n and the other user was unable to activate this card

  • Satellite R850 uses only 25% of the CPU

    Hey, my toshiba satellite R850 uses 25% of the CPU, I got 8 GB of ram, and most of the higher quality games have 20-30 FPS, is there a possibility to make it higher?

    Thanks for the help!

    How do you get this value or how do you know that only 25% of the CPU performance can be used?

    Have you noticed this behavior of the laptop is running on battery or power?

    Usually, you can change the max and min of CPU performance values in Windows power management. This allows you to decrease the CPU heat dissipation and to increase the working time of battery.

    In contrast to Intel CPU support between that the enhanced SpeedStep Technology puts both voltage and frequency in tandem up and down level to processor support.
    Simply said: the CPU runs with only if more high performance s necessary!

    I think the game frame per second question is more related to the graphics card than the CPU.
    Not quite sure this graphic card your laptop stand, but in case you want to have big game performance, the laptop should be equipped with a GPU external nVidia or ATI.

  • Single shot crashes my Satellite R850-169

    Hello!
    I wonder if someone could help.

    Recently, a single shot would break my Toshiba Satellite R850-169 15.6 inches (Intel Core processor i5 - 2410M, 2.3 GHz, RAM 6 GB, 640 GB HARD drive, Bluetooth and Windows7 Home Premium) laptop.

    Purchased in June 2011, so he's coming up to three years.
    Worked fine until about 4 months ago.

    In the past, when I hit the office/computer, I get an error message saying:
    "Vibration was detected. The head of hard drive is temporarily moved to a secure partition"or something like that.

    Now this message rarely turns on and the computer just hangs.
    And I have the Windows 7 Blue crash dump screen/message.

    The computer has so far managed to launch again... but I suspect one day soon, it may fail to do so!

    Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem?

    Is it likely to be a hardware problem? As a wiring loose maybe?
    Or maybe it's a software problem?

    Thank you very much.

    > Now this message rarely turns on and the computer just hangs.

    The message usually appears in the case where some shocks have affected the functionality of the HARD drive.
    In this case, the HARD drive protection sensor stops the HARD drive and moves the head position.

    I guess that your HARD drive is not working properly.
    It could be possible that the HARD disk failure causes the system crashes and I guess that the replacement HARD drive would solve your problems of laptop.

    Recommend to replace the HARD drive and recover the computer laptop back to factory settings.

  • Satellite R850 - faulty battery indicator? How to calibrate?

    My Satellite R850 stops at about 70% of the battery capacity. It is not suspended, just power off. Market is possible only when the AC adapter is reconnected. My first guess is that (after only a year of daily use), the battery had its best time and must be replaced.

    But why the battery indicator only shows the right capacity, so I can get a warning to low battery power?
    Is there a tool or method for recalibrating the battery?

    Hello

    To me, that shows that your battery is defective.
    Usually sooner or later each battery needs to be replaced because the battery life is limited.
    I have no idea how old your battery is but in my case the battery is 5 years old and he hold the power for about 2 min only. But the funny thing is that the battery indicator indicates battery is fully charged (100%).

    However, you can extend the lifetime of battery a little bit. You need to calibrate the battery from time to time in charge and discharge of battery. This procedure should be repeated several times is the row
    But I guess these calibrations and your battery failure doesn't help much.

  • Satellite C660-12R - Compatible with Windows XP?

    Hi friends,

    I would like to ask if my Toshiba Satellite C660-R12 is compatible with Windows XP? I'm not able to find any information about it.

    Thanks for your help
    w.

    Hi wencman,

    It is important to know if you can get all the drivers for your model laptop and Windows XP. This should be checked on the official page of Toshiba:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Satellite C660-12R belongs to the PSC0QE series and as you can see all the drivers for Windows XP are available so to install XP should be no problem. You can download the drivers official and pre-tested. :)

  • Installation of Linux on Satellite C850-12R

    I bought Toshiba Satellite C850-12R and I want to add a linux beside windows 7 preinstalled installation, and I have a question:
    Shrink a partition of windows by default and then this free space Ubuntu installation, done problem with possible resumption of default Windows (I mean, when I would go back to the installation of the fresh manufactor)?

    Or should I just format entire disk (also remove recovery partition and this strange partition after the Windows partition), fresh install of Windows 7 (I have a disk with a windows 7) and then install ubuntu?

    Thanks for any help.

    PS I hope I post this thread in an appropriate sub-forum.

    You can install Linux. No problem at all, but please note that Toshiba doesn't support Linux OS and you're on your own with it.

    Before you do this and begin to change the factory settings create recovery disk. Don t forget it.

  • Pavilion HPE 180 t, added third HD on Bay 4 in 5.25 SATA but win7 sees it as a DVD.

    I added the third hard drive to my Pavilion HPE 180 t on 3 SATA 5.25 Bay but win7 sees it as a DVD.  How can I do recognize this feature added as a third hard drive?  I have two HD in the bays of HD SATA 1 and 2 for RAID 0.

    Thanks for anyone who can help.

    Hello

    What is the make and model of drive you added? You you directly connected the hard drive the sata motherboard 3 or 4 port? 4 indicates it the title, but the post 3.  HP cables usually the DVD/CD drive and the motherboard 3 sata port.

    Boot in the bios (F10 at startup). The bios sees the new hard drive? If not, then the drive is DOA or there is a power problem.

    If the bios recognizes the new hard like a hard drive, then try the suggestion below.

    Go to--> disk management computer management and expand the screen entirely.  How many hard drives you see?  Post a picture of this screen.

    If the new drive has never been initialized, then you'll need to format/initialize it by right mouse clicking on the new drive and then format/initialize and assign a drive letter.

    What is the max HDD capacity satellite a210-171 may take?

    Hi turboiwan,

    As much I know satellite A210-171 has already interface SATA HARD drive so that you can install each HARD drive with this interface because the standard SATA are without capacity limits. This means that hard drives of 500 GB or more may work.

    For example, I upgraded my laptop with 500 GB Western Digital drive HARD and this worked great.

  • Satellite R830 - support Sata III for SSD drives

    Hello

    Why Toshiba Satellite R830 does not support Sata III, although the plug to motherboard. indicate that it is possible?

    So you can not significantly increase the performance of your laptop by replacing the HARD drive with disk SSD Sata III. Is it possible to activate the Sata III (6 Mbps) on R830?

    All the system settings? It's also kind of bios update request necessary support SSD and SATA III...

    Any help is appreciated! :)

    > It shows that SATA III is supported, but when you install the SSD SATA III disc it does not work with higher speeds to ~ 250 MB/s (cases Crucial M4).

    From my own experience many SSD readers need a updated firmware that is provided by the manufacturers of SSD drives.

    But readers in the R830 SSD seems to support these specifications:
    Host interface: Max 300 MB/s
    Reading data supported: Max 250 MB/s
    Writing data supported: Max 160 MB/s

    By the way: the R830 supports a Mobile Intel HM65 Express Chipset and the chipset supports the storage interface high speed supports up to 6 Gb/s transfer rate for improved data access. Provides up to 6 SATA ports, 3 Gb/s with up to 2 ports support 6 Gb/s transfer rate.

  • Satellite R630 - 11L - sometimes did not recognize the SSD drive

    Hi all

    I have a portable Satellite R630 - 11L and I just bought a Corsair F120 SSD for her, but my laptop a few times did not recognize the SSD drive and fails to start occurs. I searched on the Internet concerning the issue, but there are any topic related to my problem. in recent days, I have updated my bios but the problem remains. for example if I put the computer to sleep and he never wake ups as it should be. the blue windows screen 7 failure comes and an error message 'could not access the windows volume. If portable succesful started without problem occurs until I reeboot the computer. so most of the time I have to restart computer about 5 - 6 times to work normal. At the same time, I opened a topic on the corsair website. They told me to test my drive on another computer, so I test it on laptops, dell and hp to my friends, but there is no any problem don't like this.

    So I test my ssd on an another toshiba laptop R630 which has a different hardware configurations, the problem remains that laptop too...

    So I think toshiba may provide a bios update to fix this problem. This laptop really great, so I don't want to buy another.

    y at - it advice to solve this problem?

    concerning

    Hi machka,.

    > I think that here is the toshiba support forum. is not here?
    Here he s a Toshiba forum, that of right, but you can only chat with normal users like you and me. You will not find someone from Toshiba here.
    The forum is provided Toshiba but for Toshiba users to exchange experience on different products.

    So I think that the Quad is just. No one can say that every SSD is compatible with all computers. You need to understand this!
    There are hundreds of different players and computers on the market and I m sure that no one can test a new computer with all SSD on the market. This is not possible, because it takes a lot of time and more expensive laptops that I think.

    So if the SSD doesn't work, there is nothing that you can wait for the BIOS update.
    Otherwise, you must purchase another SSD. Alternatively, you can ask a service provider allowed in your country, maybe that technicians have already experience with some SSD in Satellite R630. Just ask for that, they are the first contact for you! :)
