• Satellite Pro 4600: HDD upgrade question

  Hello.

  Only, I get a blank screen.
  When I go back my 20 original concert, it works well.
  Y at - it a special procedure for the Assembly of the larger disks?

  The BIOS recognizes the HARD drive correctly?

  Perhaps the size of the HARD drive is too big and so you have a few problems with the laptop.

  The fact is that not all HARD drive sizes are supported and the BIOS recognizes all drives, if the size is too large. Therefore, you should try a smaller HARD drive

• Satellite P100-286 - HDD upgrade question

  I'm looking in the upgrade of my HDD, i.e. with the P100-286 Fujitsu MHV2200BT. I would like to find a disk with a RPM faster and perhaps a slightly greater capacity also.

  I found the information on the MHV2200BT and see that there is a box slightly larger than most portable 2.5 "HDD. SA is 12.5 mm height, rather than the usual 9.5 mm.

  If the new HARD drive would mingle not with this support.

  The problem is that there is no official information on the maximum size of HARD drive on laptop series different. If we can only speculate on the supported formats.

  But I found it here in the forum:

  The user has updated the own M70 with the 160 GB drive HARD Toshiba MK1637GSX and it works.

• Satellite A100-386 - HDD upgrade question

  Hello everyone and happy new year.

  First of all, sorry for my bad English.

  I bought a Satellite A100-386 a few years and I'm really happy, but my hard drive has failed.
  So, I wanted to know if I could put a 2.5 "SATA II disk, like this.

  http://www.materiel.NET/Disque-Dur/Hitachi-Travelstar-5k500-b-s-ATA-II-250-go-8-mo-48900.html

  because when I see the characteristics of the satellite, they mention a hard drive with only S - ATA.
  Y at - it compatibility?

  Thank you answer :)

  Bye bye

  Hello

  Yes, I think that this should be possible.
  The A100 supports hard drives SATA controller, and theoretically, you can use any HARD SATA 2.5 drive.

• Re: Satellite A300-1mt - HDD upgrade question

  I just want to know, can I change my 250 GB, 8 MB, 5400 RPM SATA HDD in my laptop with this one
  HDD 500.0 GB WESTERN DIGITAL Scorpio Blue 5000BEVT, SATA, 8 MB c., 5400 RPM

  Will it work, or does better go, my laptop will recognize it?

  Hello

  I think that the laptops BIOS should recognize the new HARD drive.
  The new HARD drive is a SATA HDD and it's the most important thing.

  You need a 2.5 SATA HARD drive!
  Size and speed are not really important, because the new SATA controller must manage this without HARD disk problem.

  Hello

  What is the new HARD disk?
  As far as I know, this unit was delivered with a 40 GB HARD drive.
  If the new HARD drive is bigger, then maybe the BIOS have some problems to recognize the HARD drive.

• Satellite 1800-100 microprocessor upgrade

  Hi!, thanks for this forum.

  Okay, I bougth a satellite 1800-100 four years ago in a shop, here in Spain. I improve my memory with a module of kingston pc100 144 pin with 256 MB. I mounted this module because this motherboard FSB is 100 Mhz.
  Now, my laptop has 384 MB of RAM.

  But, I would like to increase the speed of my 1800-100

  I opened the laptop to investigate the resources inside. I mounted and dismounted several times, CPU Intel celeron 800 Mhz processor. But I Don t know if it is possible to have more information on the characteristics of motherboard'internals. I would like to know which is the microphone the quicker one can get in my book. ¿Celeron 900, 1000, 1100 or more? Where can I get a pentium III 800, 900, 1000, 1100 or more? I didn t see indications or jumpers in the motherboard on the tensions, or speeds and I Don t now if this motherboard determines automatically the voltage and speed when the microphone is mounted. I have 1 or 2 microphones of fastest in the House, and I want to ride in my laptop
  without the risk of burning the microphones or the motherboard. Is posible to find information on our satellite motherboard. I Don t know who is the superior of technology of microphones that are supported in my 100-1800.
  It is the only way to increase the speed, because the chipset is not really good, and cheap nor quick. I think that when someone buys a computer, desktop computer or a laptop, it can receive all the documentation about the inner workings of a computer, so isn´t?

  I m sorry for my questions severals, but I m very intetesred with this problem...

  Thank you all...

  Hi, Rob

  Information about the technical details on his books will be no manufacturer of space available.

  A laptop is high designed compact Machine, which is not
  be for the upgrade of this element by anyone.

  OK, hard drive and memory are no problem as long as you can catch this part by opening a ceiling with screws.

  So finally, you won't find the technical details of the motherboard is this Forum here, the only chance I have is to talk directly to a technician of Toshiba.

  Maybe he'll tell you a bit about you looking for ;)

  Good bye

• 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 1800-814 memory upgrade

  I have a Satellite 1800 814 with 256 MB of RAM and have been looking for an upgrade of memory for a while. I used a critical technology for an upgrade of my old Packard Bell 6500 multimedia PC, but they could not help with my Satellite laptop.

  I have now found an upgrade to 512 MB at Offtek, who seems to have a good range of Toshiba of refoulement (2 x 256 MB modules). See the site:-

  http://www.offtek.co.UK/

  Their site States that the max memory for the 1800-814 is 512 MB.
  Anyone has any experience of Offtek updates before I shell out £131,16 Please? If I can count on the accuracy of their information and the reliability of their product?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Looks like Offtek memory is right. And yes it's true 512 MB is the maximum that can use a Satellite 1800. But if your laptop is already 256 MB, you only need a 256 MB module.

  Good bye

• Satellite 1800-514: display strange question

  Hi all

  I have a portable satellite 1800-514. now recently I can not the laptop for initialization or power on when I press the power button. Although sometimes it lights up then the sreen flips on and off with a beep. Fortunately, now it's on and uses it to write this post may be at the time wherever I stop later he won't come again. also, I need the display driver for this laptop please help.
  Adams

  Hello

  Copy all the files in a folder. Go to Device Manager and open display adapter properties. Change tab pilot and use the update driver option and navigate to the folder of the driver.

  Try it on this path.

  It's very strange that you can not start the unit at all. In this case it is probably a hardware problem (beep).
