• 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 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, 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?

• 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: 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.

• Satellite P105 carpet * a dvd player does not work with Win 7

  Greetings,

  I need an upgrade on my dvd to my vintage Satellite P105.
  I want the possible fastest dvd burner right now because I'm a fan of film and keep them in digital memory.

  (1) first should I get an external drive or can I get the best performance with an internal dvd replacement of a reseller of parts or Toshiba?

  The problem is when I've upgraded to windows 7 things have changed. I lost my sound, but that solved using a driver inherited Visa as apparently the sound 'Council' on the laptop is for Vista only. Then I found the dvd player which is a mitsu * an internal UJ-450 does not or is extremely slow in saving films, records or files. The available recording software seems also planned for Vista performance was acceptable. Even the dvd burning software does not work.

  (2) so my question for multimedia specialists is: what should be my next move?

  (3) should I go outside and confront the neck of the bottle USB or

  (4) to make the speed of the bus on the internal dvd?

  (5) given an internal dvd is preferable, because it's exactly a dvd-ram/IDE as it is currently, or some other configuration of bus.

  (6) most importantly, what dvd burner would give me 18 x speed with current programs like ConvertXtoDVD and did as a symbol external or - better - as an internal dvd replacement or my slow drive currently?

  Of course, if you could give me a model number and direct me to the sales it would be much appreciated.

  Thank you in advance.

  > 1) first of all I should go for an external drive or can I get optimal performance with a dvd replacement internal to a coin dealer or Toshiba?

  You should know that not all internal STRANGE machines are compatible. You will need to use a not compatible and supported and such device could be ordered in a local ASP.
  But it s more expensive as an external CD/DVD device so you could also choose an external that would be compatible with all computers and laptops available.

  (> 2) so, my question for multimedia specialists is: what should be my next move?
  As mentioned. Good option would be to buy an external burner drive ODD

  (> 3) should I go outside and confront the neck of the bottle USB or
  External device are compatible with all computers and are less expensive

  (> 4) go to the speed of the bus on the internal dvd?
  If you have the money for an internal device and want to use it with P105 only then you can also choose an internal burner.

  (> 5) because a dvd internal is preferable, because it is exactly a dvd-ram/IDE as it is currently, or some other configuration of bus.
  As far as I know it s an IDE interface, but the device would support setting master or slave or c - salt. As mentioned, you can buy a Toshiba a recommended.

  (> 6) especially, what dvd burner would give me 18 x speed with current programs like ConvertXtoDVD and did as a symbol external or - better - as an internal dvd replacement or my slow drive currently?

• 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.

• Satellite Pro A10 - updated DVD player

  Hello. I bought this laptop with a DVD player, but upgrade to a DVD - RW so that I can burn DVDs. Anyone know if it is possible to buy an internal DVD RW burner drive for this model of Satellite Pro or should I just a USB external DVD burner?

  Thank you

  Hiya,

  You can certainly replace your DVD drive with a new DVD burner, but you will need to make sure that you get a new device with the same form factor (physical dimensions) and also one that is on the characteristics of good connection (master, slave, or C/salt).

  I suggest that you only contact your nearest ASP to check compatible DVD burners.

  Kind regards

• Satellite M40-145: CD/DVD player will not play some DVD

  Hello!

  I am the owner of a Satellite M40-145 bought a little over a year; DVD driver worked perfectly until three days ago, but today I discovered something... strange. Still, it reads the DVD business and burned the DVD + r, but apparently it does not read the DVD - r serious more. I tried with different DVD - Rs, I burned the same DVD player, without success; trying to access the DVD gives a message "insert the disk in drive D:".

  In this case, I'm talking about movies on DVD. Please tell me there is a way to fix this without sending the computer to the customer service...
  I wouldn't think he fell down a few days after the expiry date of the guarantee.

  Hello

  Well, you can try to remove the Device Manager order form.
  After restarting again the reader should be recognized again. Then, check if it is possible to read the DVD - R, CD.

  But the question sounds like a lens calibration error. If you use different media, the lens must be calibrated again. But if this procedure fails, the drive is not able to read or write the DVD for example.
  Unfortunately, in this case only the replacement of the drive will resolve this problem.

• Satellite L750-16Z new DVD player

  It keeps track of the post "Reader of DVD Satellite L750 - 16Z erratic behavior".

  Dvd endless reason disc clicks have been resolved by turning off the Toshiba PC Health Monitor from startup in msconfig.

  Now, if I go into Windows Media Player and play a .wmv file saved, the DVD drive clicks when a .wmv file is normally played only the first time. I think this may have something to do with the settings in Windows Media Player like VLC seems OK. Any ideas?

  I could try to completely uninstall the PC Health Monitor - but before you do, I noticed that my version is 1.7.9.64M, but one on the Toshiba site is 1.7.4.64 and it doesn't seem to be a 1.7.9.64M to download for my model, in which case I wish to reinstall at a later date.

  In the meantime, I turned off the DVD drive in Device Manager. I also wonder if it is possible to disable the DVD from the BIOS drive? This isn't an ideal solution, but should record the disc in the long term.

  Not sure about this but it could be related to WMP if it appears only using WMP.

  I guess that's the same version, however, on the page of the Toshiba driver you will find no more version that preinstalled on your laptop. so you will be able to always download the latest don t you worry about it you can uninstall this tool ;)

  PS: DVD player can not be disabled in the BIOS
