Satellite 2430-101: BIOS and many other issues

Then... I had more than 1 question and I hope someone out there can answer...

1 - is the new Bios (1, 60 - WIN) supports Hyperthreading? If not, is there an other BIOS that is compatible with the S2430-101?

2. I want to replace the P4 2, 54GHz with a P4 2 8 GHz (800 MHz Bus, HT). If the Bios recognizes the new processor? The heat problem is not really a big problem for me, cause I plan to underclock (if its too hot for the old cooling system to manage) the P4 to 2.6. I want just the stuff (for example HT) of the new processor

3. not the BIOS recognize a 120 GB HD?

4. does anyone have experiences with the MSI mini-PCI combo (Blutooth/WLAN) card?

5. the S2430-101 got a Geforce 4 420 go 32 MB... I was just thinking to upgrade to Geforce 4 440 go with 64 MB... Is this possible... His chip with several pipelines and so on... Its the same family... Has anyone tried replacing a laptop graphics chip? Perhaps a 'material-designer' Toshiba could give some comments to this :D Hey guys... Is this possible?...

6 I need more power, I need more mAh: D... Do anyone know why the battery has more than 2 pins? Is there any material in the battery which tells the system information of the battery? If so, is it possible to build its own battery or system requires information from the battery in order to operate. If Yes, where can I get the specifications of this "battery pack material"?

Thanks in advance... Stryker

Hello

I'm not an expert, but I'll try to help: :)

1. There is no public list where you can read what each update BIOS contains or which issues are fixed. It is always recommended to install later and ONLY Toshiba designed update the BIOS.
2. I can't give you specific information about CPU upgrade, but as far as I know, replacement of the CPU is often not possible. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a method of permanent connection and it is used in the interest of the miniaturization and heat dissipation. For more information try to contact the Service partner in your country.
3. you will be lucky if someone has tested with the same unit. This unit is about three years old and it is not easy to say what is the maximum size of HDD supported by the BIOS. I found the info set comes with 40 GB and you can use 60 or 80 GB HARD drive, and I think that there should not be no problem. If you need more space, you can use external HARD drive (unit has USB 2.0 and data transfer speed will be fast enough)
4. I don't think you can use any card combo on this device because of hardware architecture. WLAN is here but BT module is missing and you can use an external solution such as BT USB stick.
5 update graphics card is usually not possible.
6. sorry but this question is a bit stupid to me :) and I really put t know how you want to use the battery clean.

Expensive Stryker at the end I just recommend you to buy a new laptop. Believe me it's much cheaper than all your projects for the upgrade. Please think about it!

    Hello everyone,
    I have Toshiba satellite 2430-101. Recently I bought external 40 GB hard drive. When I connected to my toshiba usb hub, it is said that it exceeds the limit of the power, and I need to detach the external hard drive. When I read these last questions, someone suggested to uncheck the power supply to the usb hub options, but he says always the same. They are someone to help me.

    Hello

    Well, in my opinion, this problem occurs if the USB port can't provide enough power.
    In this case, that the USB hub must be connect to external power.

  • Satellite 2430-101 is compatible with 100 GB HARD drive?

    Dear comrades,

    I immediately bought a Hitachi Travelstar 7K 100, 100G of HARD drive.
    Can I use this HARD drive with my laptop Toshiba 2430-101? Has anyone had experience with this combination?

    Kind regards

    No, you cannot use the 100 GB HARD drive.
    As far as I know the laptop supports following three HARD drive sizes:
    -30 GB (4200 RPM)
    -40 GB (4200 / 5400 RPM)
    -60 GB (4200 / 5400 RPM)

    More large hard disks could not be recognized by the BIOS.

  • Satellite L500 - noise Squeak and mic/noise issues

    Hello
    I hope you can help with my sound problems!

    I have a Satellite L500 which is 18mth old.

    * Something *.
    In March, I had problems with my microphone / sound. If I had my volume of more than 50%, I would get a terrible grinding sound feedback that has been difficult to mute (IE due support on mute a couple of times).

    As I got a 2-year warranty, I sent him away and they said they fixed it but is short-lived. The problem came immediately. The only solution I found to have its volume by more than 50% was to completely turn off the microphone.

    * Two problem *.
    For the last few weeks I've been to randomly make this top placed, continuous his squealing that occurs usually when I am in public with my laptop in my backpack (annoying!). I have to continue to support on mute for the squeal to stop. Interestingly, my cell phone is cut off when it starts. Sometimes, my phone is hot when it occurs. Is this overheating problem?

    All the solutions for both of my sound problems? Should I send it to get my warranty repair? When I argued that it was not fixed the first time, they said Windows is probably corrupt and is not under warranty.

    Thank you!

  • Installation of XP pro sp2 stalls to the file teamw.exe then ks.exe and many others.

    I'm trying to re - install XP pro SP2 after a virus attack.  I did a full format on my WD 160 GB hard drive.  Serial ATA Mothboard Biostar G31 - M7 TE with the most recent BIOS.  Generally, installation hangs when you attempt to load the file "teamw.exe" the file depending on whether he's looking for is ks.exe there are twenty others subsequently that it cannot find.  I tried another disc with SP2.  The same problem.  I joined my current version to SP3 with the same result.  Thought it might be a hard drive problem.  A ran the WD disk checker rescuer in the BACK.  No problems found.  I don't think that is the motherboard related.  Would be - this somehow a hard drive problem?  No other equipment still installed.  It drives me crazy.  Thanks for your suggestions!

    Hi Indiana brand,

    Whenever there is a problem with the Windows XP disc, we encounter this type of questions. We recommend trying the following steps and check the result.
    a. installation to launch Windows XP.
    b. when the file fails to copy, remove the disk from the CD drive and insert the other XP CD in the drive to see if the copy process continues successfully.
    c. If the installation continues, complete the installation.

    See How to install or upgrade to Windows XP

    If all else fails, contact the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

  • Someone at - it a repair for a function that is usually common in Windows, the Svchost.exe process? I and many other users of PC have infested with this mystery bug. Its not to damage yet, but...

    I'm infected w / which seems to be the most mysterious infection known for Windows right now.  One wonders if it's a Trojan horse, worm, malware, etc., or just a natural process for C: Windows\system32.  It's almost like 'shadow people '.  For most, there quite harmless, fantasy of the mind.  But, from time to time, there is actually something that happens on the corner of your cornea, so to speak.  This is very sneaky and difficult to diagnose a problem b/c he hides with the Service host.  I'm here b/c I have a question, but also to help others to understand that, unlike the 'shadow people', the shadow of an infection is very REAL.  This infected process is, for the most part, quite harmless unless something malicious attaches to it and could things get a bit risky.  Anyway, I'm sorry for this rambling diatribe, but I have a question for someone who is very smart b/c so far it seems not yet to be a definitive repair because some people still think it's a natural function or process in the Windows operating system.  So here it is: How can I solve this problem?  And I can fix it with or without a full restore of my records?  I'd really appreciate any input on this very discouraging, boring, mind and body draining, faulty computer "BUG".  BTW, I have a dv9500 HP Pavilion x 64 Ultimate for Vista that was bought there are 3 1/2 years.  I've dealt with this infection since the end of February and have spent more than $400 on this terrible nuisance.  But Club (all jokes aside), I really enjoyed, grateful and very thankful for someone with an answer to this complicated issue.  Thanks for the time!

  • Police on Google, Facebook and many other sites, but not all, is "BOLD", no matter what I do.

    Since I installed Firefox on my newly-fixed computer (has been completely annihilated, installed FF 06/05 / 15), fonts for several sites has been "BOLD", regardless of how I set my preferences. It comes to Facebook, Google and Gmail. If I say not to allow pages to choose their own fonts, this problem is solved, but the characters such as arrows do not appear on other sites.

    What I really want is to be able to see that I read something by having make it back to normal, rather than "BOLD". The only way I can do it is by prohibiting the pages to choose their own fonts. Is it possible to fix this?

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.

    Some display drivers also have parameters that can affect the appearance of fonts.

    Were you able to find which fonts are assigned by the police test?

    I use Eset Smart Security 7 and Firefox on Windows 8 unique.

    I faced this problem right back in Firefox 2 days only. All other browsers (Chrome, iron, IE10) work as usual.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Concerning

    If you use the feature of ESET that filter web traffic, this problem could be caused by ESET intercept your secure connections and presenting a false certificate. If you see ESET as the transmitter, you have a few options:

    (1) disable SSL filtering

    This would solve the problem instantly, but you would have less protection. Check the documentation of your product for specific details, or if you have ESET NOD32 ANTIVIRUS 7 look under:

    Advanced Setup (F5) > Web and email > Web access protection

    Here you can adjust if HTTPS is scanned. (At least, so according to this manual.)

    (2) try ESET automated to import certificate

    This will allow Firefox to accept the false certificate signed by the certificate of ESET.

    These steps are listed on the forum of ESET:

    • With all browsers and e-mail clients private, disable SSL analysis (Advanced setup (F5) > Web and email > Web access protection, I think under protocol filtering > SSL), OK change
    • Re-enable SSL scanning, OK change
    • Start Firefox and test

    (3) manually import the certificate ESET in Firefox

    This will allow Firefox to accept the false certificate signed by the certificate of ESET.

    According to the manual, you can export the certificate to ESET under:

    Advanced Setup (F5) > Web and email > access protection Web, perhaps in the section protocol filtering > SSL

    Search

    See the certificate > Details > copy to a file...

    Once you save the file (probably with a CER) you can import it using the certificate Firefox display.

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced > mini-onglet Certificates > "view certificates" button.

    Click the References tab and then click the import button.

I could see messages from them before, but they changed their address and on the site, they say people that they must put the new address on the approved list of the pop-up windows.

    You can control and manage permissions for all areas on the Subject: authorizations page.

    You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" from the context menu of the history entry (see the history or the history sidebar) or via the subject: permissions page.

    Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from this area you don't want to lose so take note of these passwords and bookmarks.
    You can't recover from which "forget" unless you have a backup of the affected files.

    It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

    Hello!

    My good old, we no longer works! I don't know what the problem is! When I try to start, I have no Bootsequence on my desk! I don't see anything! I tried to change the battery of the Bios, the RAM, free HARD drive starting... only what I get is the coolingnoise and a glance!

    Looks like a hardware problem

    Try this workaround: remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait one hour and then reconnect the battery and the AC adapter. Now, try to restart the laptop. Maybe it works.

    Otherwise it could be the motherboard or a malfunction of the CPU, but this can be checked from an authorized service provider or you buy a new laptop with full guarantee.

  • Atrix gave me. And many other

    I found a topic in which a person of the Portugal complains its Atrix 4 g. He's no more. No matter what he does: master reset, master clear... In fact, he won't even a master reset because it does not illuminate. You can try taking the battery or any other attempt to turn it on. If you have something to offer, I'd like to hear, but it seems quite difficult to understand why Motorola has not taken measures to correct the problem. In Brazil, in a website called "Aqui advertising", something like "Complain about here", Atrix seems to be a champion in complaints about the same problem: its resistance to work:

The problem exists, you know, and you try to deny it.

    I managed to solve myself, after reviewing all those forums. When the battery is completely exhausted, only phone with the Motorola charger official charges, not with a USB connection or with the official Motorola charger for cars. When he has left fee it charges in any way. This is a bug, and you should fix it. Not deny it.
