Satellite 1900-102 BIOS necessary
After being hit by a rather nasty virus (long story, but my son went online with the firewall disabled) my bios on my satellite 1900-102 has been damaged and I can't re-boot, also some programs no longer work. Where can I get a download of the Bios for my machine... help!
Hello
It s very rare that the BIOS is damaged after the attack of virus.
But however the BIOS you will find on the Toshiba site.
http://www.toshiba-tro.de/subpage/BIOS.html
Please check also the update BIOS procedure because wrong procedure can damage the motherboard.
PS: you should first try to recover the operating system before starting any procedure to upgrade the BIOS

I'm not able to get my tv-out from the satellite 1900-102. I think he's sending NTSC, but I don't know how to change it to PAL.

Hi Henkoo
There are 2 possible places to fix this.
The configuration of the BIOS or the videodriver.
I don't know which is the right one for your model, but the easiest is to first check the BIOS.
When you feed the machine, you will see a Toshiba logo for almost 2 seconds. While the logo is visible, you can press F2 to enter the BIOS setup and make a turn. If you feel uncertain when to go, please just read the explanatory text and be careful when you press the buttons. Normally you should not be able to do any "harm" to the system when you are.If you can't find the PAL/NTSC setting in the BIOS, start your machine and make adjustments in the videodriver.
Right click on the desktop and choose "settings". From there it is probably pretty simple.BR

Upgrade satellite 1900-102, hard drive
Hello... My laptop is a toshiba satellite 1900-102 with a 20 GB hard drive. I would like to ask if I can upgrade the hard drive with another model and not the classic toshiba MK * 18GAP. Is it OK to use a hard drive from another provider? I want to use a Hitachi drive, which is less expensive, but it will be compatible?
Thanks in advance!Don't know anything about Hitachi, but what speaks against an exchange of hard drive?
The most important is the measures of the hard drive.
As for the ability I can just tell you that we have a Satellite of 1900 with 30 concerts runningGood bye

Satellite 1900-102: power management utility installs in XP SP2
Hello
I was wondering if anyone has encountered thi problem before:
I had to uninstall the Toshiba power management utility (version 1.3 for the Satellite 1900 102 running XP SP2). When I tried to re - install the installer launches and I get a message saying "Invalid Handle" followed by the error "unable to install this version of the utility of toshiba to your system power management" and Setup stops.
Any help is appreciated.
Hello
Why you reinstall this utility?
As far as I know on the Toshiba site are drivers. One for the other for WinXp and Win2k.
Have you tried to install the correct driver?

Update hard disk for Satellite 1900 102
Hi all
I used to work with a Toshiba Satellite 1900 102 since July 2002 and March my hard drive has stopped working (maybe it was time).
Where can I buy records 2.5 "that this series of satellites can be supported?What is the maximum capacity (in GB) laptop that recognizes the old man?
Thanks for all your help!
Hello
2.5 hard drives can be bought anywhere I think then, either you contact an authorized service provider or you visit your favorite computer store.
I think that the Satellite 1900 limits the 28-bit LBA. This would mean that the size of the HARD disk is limited to 128 GB. The maximum capacity is 120 GB that you can use, but I think that 80 GB would be enough according to your amount of files you want to save on the HARD drive.
If you have any other questions please let us know! :)

XP display for Satellite 1900-102 driver
Hello
I'm looking for a display driver for my old Toshiba Satellite 1900 102.
After Installing Win XP Pro, a generic driver for ATI Mobility Radeon was automatically installed, and it is not working properly.
Refreshing window is very slow and impossible to manage or configure.
I'm trying to find it but it seems impossible to me.
Can someone help me please?
Thank you.
Kind regards
Vito
Hello
> Refreshing window is very slow and impossible to manage or configure
The problem is that a graphics driver has not been installed and the Win operating system uses own common Microsoft driver.To resolve this problem, you must install the graphics driver of the European driver Toshiba page.
To find the page of the European driver follow this path;
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> support download &-> download driversYou have to search the ARCHIVES!
Good luck

Upgrade hard drive satellite 1900 102
I want to upgrade to the HD of my Satellite 1900 102 because of the original HD 20 GB is small.
Can what type of HD Toshiba I use? 2.5 "or 1.8" too?
Toshiba MK1234GAX 2.5 "120GB HD is compatible with my laptop?
Thank youHello
Two years ago I had Satellite 1900-703. Beautiful peace of hardware isn t it? On this laptop, you can use HDD 2.5 only. 1.8 HARD disk is used by ultra-thin laptops as some models of the Portege.
To be honest 120 GB is a little too much for this good old classic and I'm sure that it won't wok. If I'm that much memory my Satellite was delivered with 40 GB. Maybe 60 or even 80 GB HDD can work with this laptop but 120 GB. I'm quite skeptical that it will work.

I get a Toshiba satellite 1900-102 with a default card mother work
Does anyone have a default Toshiba satellite 1900-102 with a card mother work and is willing to sell?
Or does anyone know where to find that?
Hi Erdl,
I think this is the wrong forum to ask questions about buying used and portable defects! I understand toshiba as well as this forum is only for technical user to help!
In my opinion, you will have more luck at ebay or used equipment selling home pages!
Sorry

Satellite 1900-102 crashing several times
Hello
My laptop after having been operated for a few hours, made a rattling noise sometimes three times in a row before stopping completely. This sounds noice coming under the surface of the mouse pad, near the hard drive? When recharged it works for a short period before doing the same thing. Hurt it may be over heating, but placed bags of ice under the laptop with little effect. Also, occationally an error message will appear after the noice by clicking, to the effect of "check newly installed/software-(not has) and a message on the system BIOS of Max and shaddowing change." How can I do this?
Any help that anyone can give me would be gratefully recived.
Thank you, Ian.Hello
On this path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem. I guess there is a problem with the HARD drive. AFAIK the rattling noise is specific if the HARD drive is at the end of life.
Please backup your data and contact the service partner. They allow to check the unit.
I have Satellite 1900-703 and for now everything works fine.Good bye

Re: Satellite 1900-102 XP install without recovery CD?
I have a Toshiba S1900-102.
I put a larger (40 GB) HARD drive in it, and I would like to install my XP Pro SP2 English on it rather than the original German XP Home that sits on the recovery CD.
Is this possible without going through the road to dual boot, and if so, how can I go about it? Would it not possible to mount a Ghost image of my desktop XP system on the new drive if I connect to the desktop with the converter cable? So would it work on the laptop and I need to load specific Toshiba drivers?
Thank you very much!
Hello
I m not very well what you want to do?
You want to use on your satellite 1900 old dualboot?If you want to use both Win XP, then you need to create a second partition on the HARD drive.
First install the OS on the recovery disk.
Then create the second partition using a 3rd party magically partitions.
After you create a new partition, you could boot from your other CD of Win XP and could install the second XP on the new created partition.The XP drivers are on the European driver Toshiba page.
You need to look in the folder to ARCHIVE, because the Sat 1900 is an older unit.Good bye
