  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.

• How to use on the Satellite 2430-101 S-Video port?

  Hi all!

  I don't know if I'm in the right section... I have a second hand S Satellite 2430-101 and use Microsoft Windows XP. Unfortunately I can't use the s-video output, because I do not know, how should be done. Quite simply, do not attach the s-video cable to the TV worked. What do I need to enable something in Notepad? Thank you in advance

  Hello

  As Nicky said if the unit is pre-installed with recovery CD, you can use the FN + F5 key combination and switch to the external display or TV. Check also display properties > settings > advanced > nView. Control the clone and device settings option. Under device settings, you can find the device selection option.

• 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 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!

  Do you have the yellow marks or unknown devices in Device Manager?

  In your case I'd do an update of the BIOS if you n t have the most recent version, and Yes, you have an Atheros WLAN card, so you need Atheros driver.

• 2430-101 stops at Toshiba-Logo (BIOS Setup/Boot-selection products deadloop)

  Hello.

  I have a serious problem with my Satellite 2430 101:

  The system stops at the start after reaching the TOSHIBA Logo. Pressing F2/F12-key appears common waiting messages ("enter in BIOS-Setup" / "entering Boot Device selection Menu) "), but the system hangs and then upward in a deadloop (you can hear the fan turning after a few seconds). Restarting with Ctrl + Alt + Delete system works perfectly, but as soon as it happens

  This is what happened before the last stop:

  I simply restarted the system (OS: Novell/SUSE Linux 9.3 kernel 2.4.xxx) and usual stop messages appeared. Then there was strange messages, which resembles BIOS-output (I'm sure it's no message-Linux)-I remember only something about "Boot PXE" and that it was an error message. After waiting some time (about 15 minutes), I rebooted manually by pressing the power button.

  I tried unplugging everything which has been connected to the system (including ModularBay devices) - without any result. I use the old BIOS 1.10 because there is no BIOS-update to the 2430-101 available in the downlads (maybe that was the problem). I also tried out the hard drive - even without a hard drive, the system displays the same behavior (if the hard drive is not the problem)...

  I hope someone can help me with this, because I need my laptop for my work...

  Thank you

  Hi Rico,

  Have you tried to boot in SafeMode (PF8)? This should at least help you in your system to check for any errors.

  You can also try pressing them ESC when starting so that you can see the progress of the BIOS and the error messages.

• Card WLan where satellite 2450-101

  Where the map sitting in a Satellite 2450-101 wireless?
  And where can I get the card?
  Other cards are compatible with the 2450-101?

  Hello

  I didn t find exactly the information concerning this oldie but I found some nice details about Sam 2455.
  It of very similar to the European Sat 2450-xxx but the 2455 Sat is an American model.

  Compatible WiFi cards are:
  PA3212U-3MPCR wireless 802 LAN cards Kit. 11B (Agere)
  PA3273U-1MPC Wireless LAN Card 802 Kit. 11a / b (Atheros)

  I think that the miniPCI Wlan Card slot is hidden somewhere under the keyboard.
  So to access this slots the keyboard must be removed first.
  Usually it of fixed by 2 screws that are hidden under the plastic thinking.

  PS: the WLan miniPCI card must be connected to the WLan antenna.
  There are two wires (black and white). A white cable normally goes to the HAND and a black at the entrance to THE

• Satellite 2430-301: cannot use 2200BG WLan card because the switch is off

  Hello

  I have a Satellite 2430-301, which was not delivered with WLAN functionality. But I discovered, that there is a MiniPCI slot in the laptop.

  So, I bought an Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Minipci card. After that I joined the card in the laptop, it has been detected by windows as a new network device. I downloaded and installed the drivers of Windows XP (because I have Windows XP installed on the laptop) of Intel (9.0.4.17) home page. The installation worked perfectly.

  Now I tried to connect to a wireless network, but the software Intel says that the card is on 'off '. So I changed the menu drop-down on "on", which resulted in a mistake in German: "Die Intel (r) PRO/Wireless-Netzwerkverbindung ist noch deaktiviert.» Aktivieren Sie sie über your Hardware-switch. "(which means something like 'network Intel (r) PRO/Wireless connection is turned off. Turn it on with the hardware switch. »).

  Although the switch was already in position "on", I spent several times - nothing important happened. The led next to the switch will not illuminate in both positions.

  Are there problems of incompatibility between "Toshiba Satellite 2430 301" and "Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG?

  I did something wrong?

  Is - this darn broken hardware switch?

  Any suggestions?

  I would be really happy if someone could help me :)

  Thanks in advance,
  Thuriel

  Hello

  The hardware switch led should light up if the switch is on.
  In addition if you want to use the WiFi network you must go to the WLan with FN + F8 option.
  In addition, you must check the WLan card properties in Device Manager. Here, you enter the Advanced tab. In the field of property choose radio power option and select the value to on.

  Hello

  I think that it should be compatible.
  Since the motherboard supports a common miniPCI port, most miniPCI WLan card must be compatible.

  Notes; the Wlan antenna must be correctly connected to the card. A white cable normally goes to the HAND and a black at the entrance to THE

  You want to connect to the WLan router wireless?

  Well, as far as I know this laptop is an oldie and the WLan card was optional.
  This means that not all Satellite 2450-101 were equipped with the internal WLan card

  If your laptop was not equipped with the WLan card, then I recommend to use an external solution such as WLan USB stick which supports the WLan standard even as your WLan router.

• Question about updating BIOS for Satellite 2450-101

  Hi, I want to update BIOS for my Satellite 2450-101 (model: PS245E-01TMY-IT). I downloaded the BIOS "bios - 20071008123347.zip" on Toshiba Europe site (see link below). Is this the right one for my PC?
  What do you propose to make a backup of the existing before installing the new?

  I want to make an extension of memory, but I'm not sure whether this is necessary. Do you reccoment to update the bios anyway?

  Thank you very much!

  BIOS

  Hello!

  Yes, it's the good BIOS because it s also for your model (Satellite 2450-101).

  A BIOS update is an upgrade of RAM is not necessary. The BIOS has nothing to do with the maximum RAM capacity.
  Satellite 2450-101 supports up to 1 GB, type PC2100 DDR - RAM.
