• Satellite 5100-201-size Limitation of HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a Satellite 5100-201 P4 - M 1.6 Ghz with 30 GB IDE HDD and 1024 MB of RAM. I use my 'old' Satellite only for music (the largest sound found on laptops!) but my HARD drive got a little weak.

  So my question is if there is no limit on the size of HARD drive for this laptop. I would buy an IDE 120 GB or 160 GB HDD at 5400 RPM and 8 MB Cache. If this is not possible, I can also take the 80 GB of HDD (another puts it on say works), but liked better!

  Thanks for your help!

  Greetings,
  Fab

  Hey Buddy,

  I think that the maximum capacity of the HARD drive would be 120 GB because the laptop has a limitation of LBA 28 bits. This means that only the hard disks up to 128 GB usable 120 GB would be the maximum. 5400 RPM and 8 MB cache are ok.

  By the way: it of Nice to read that you are always so pleased with old Satellite 5200 :)

• Satellite 5100-201: five keys: ' 9-O - L-.-Del "do not work

  Hello!
  I am owner of a Toshiba Satellite 5100 201. The five keys 9-O - L-.-led on the keyboard do not work. Is it a software or a defect of the keyboard control problem or a problem of contact on the map? Does anyone have experience with this problem? Can it be a BIOS problem? I have Bios 1.90.
  Can someone help me?

  Best regards
  Ulrich

  Hello

  in most cases, the problem is that there is some dirt on the contacts of the keys.
  You must remove and clean and check the connector of the keyboard.
  If this help not the keyboard probably is defective and must be replaced.

  Good bye

  Sorry for the bad English, I m of the Germany and do my best.

  Hello

  When you purchased your portable Satellite didn t you get a remote control? If this isn't the case, then the unit is not ready to use the remote control. You can also refer to the manuals of s.

  AFAIK all units with remote installed a small application called controls. Check in Control Panel if you can find something like that.

• Differences between Satellite 5100-201 & 5100 603

  Hello

  The user guide is not clarify the differences between the models S5100-201 and S5100-603.
  I can work on them are different speeds, memory and hard drive, but what about the internal bits?

  I have a model 603 broke with a power control fault. Does anyone know if a model-201 motherboard will enter unity of 603?

  Thank you
  Pete

  Hello

  I am not a technician, but I found the info that these units have a different graphics card and the two can't handle with RAM max.

  Satellite 5100-201:
  -nVidia GeForce4 440Go 32 MB
  -can handle with max 512 MB RAM

  Satellite 5100 603:
  -nVidia GeForce4 440Go 64 MB
  -can handle with max 1024 MB of RAM

  I'm not 100% sure, but if you swap the Mo together with all hardware, I think that other devices should work, but I put t know how it will work with the BIOS. Maybe the DMI should be rewritten.

  There are little guys having very good knowledge on this forum, and I hope that some of them will be post here and say more about it.

  What is the destination folder that the date be underneath?  In the top right it says users who suggests, you try to put the photos on top of your username instead of under your username.  Maybe that's the problem.  So change your folder in the drop-down list at the bottom right of what it should be rather than users, and if you're going to show us the destination of your photos at least scroll through the list of folders down right so that we can see which is the white highlight.

  Here is how mine looks like if I want to put my photos imported under my subfolder users - Steve - photos by date:

  

• Satellite 5100/201: problem with the video card or overheating?

  HY,

  I have problems with video on a 5100/201 Satellite. It seems that when I press the left side above the graphics card or press a key on the keyboard on this side, the screen begins to be scrambled and vertical lines appear. To end Windows XP resets giving a critical error on the device and the video goes to 640 x 480. Same thing happens when you run Linux Suse 9.0.

  My question is what is the cause: map graphic damaged or overheating due to the fan not as effective as originally (my laptop is nearly two years old. Do you have someone be able to find the cause and solved the problem, also with the assistance of Toshiba?
  Any help welcome.

  Hello

  I think the problem on your laptop depends on the fan.

  A colleague on mine has a 5100-603 and had similar problems.

  The Station changed the fan.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro U200 starts after some time it stops after 5 minutes

  Satellite Pro U200 stops after 5 minutes, then starts after some time. When she stops the
  blue screen say - stop: (0x0000008e, 0xaa846f58, 0xa9f29808, 0x00000000)

  Sysaudio.sys - address aa846f58 base at aa843000, datestamp 41107f1a

  Hello

  Believe me; It's not easy to say exactly why the BSOD appears.
  It usually happens because of a malfunction or severe software hardware fault.
  Have you used the operating system of the image of Toshiba?
  Message it says something about sysaudio.sys.
  This file is a system audio WDM filter processes and it s a part of the Windows operating system. It controls the material such as the printer or the graphics card at a lower level.

  Note: The virus uses these files as a camouflage. You should always use an anti virus application.

  In addition, you suggested that the laptop stops after 5 min.
  Well, this looks like an overheating problem. How did you use the laptop? You know that free space around the laptop is very important due to the circulation of air. Fans should also be free.

  I you use Notepad in the right position and it happen, so I recommend asking for help Toshiba service partner. They should check the laptop.

• Satellite 5100-201 - screen is flickering and distorted

  Hello!
  I am owner of a period of 5 years old Sam. 5100-201 which worked great until today.
  Now, I have problems with the graphics card I guess, the screen is flickering and distorted and then I mosztly get a blue screen that says that the graph
  card drivers is running in a loop.

  I have a dual boot, so I checked it on the two win xp installations and it is the same problem on both, so it seems to be a prob. real hardware!
  So I think that I have a graphics card problem, but as far as I know, the chip is attached to the motherboard and it is not replaceable, is that at the time?
  There is no work around which I can do to make sure what is the problem?

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  See you soon,.
  Achim

  Why connection to the external monitor? !!

  > blue screen indicating that the graphic card drivers is running in a loop.
  The reason for this blue screen can be a problem of graphics card DRIVER or the graphics card itself.
  For me, it looks like a graphics card problem. Maybe overheating

  > as far as I know, the chip is attached to the motherboard and is not replaceable
  Yes, to you on time. In my knowledge on older models, the graphics card is fixed on MB and the entire motherboard must be replaced

• Satellite Pro U400-13D stops several times

  Hello world

  I only use the Satellite Pro U400-13D for office work. In the last days the laptop turns off without warning during normal operation.
  After a reboot, the problem recurs after a random time.

  This is known issue? What can I do about it?

  Thank you

  Alexander Lorenz

  Hello Alexander

  In General, this can happen on each laptop model and can be caused by different reasons. It can happen due to overheating or maybe some malfunction of the equipment.
  On this path, it is certainly not easy to offer accurate diagnosis or explanation why this happen.

  Have you noticed unusual behavior in front of your laptop turns off?
  Is it when some software is running?
  Portable temperature (surface where your hands are placed) is higher than usual?

• Satellite P100-219: overheating after memory upgrade

  Hello guys,.

  I've recently upgraded to 4 GB RAM in my laptop, and he did it again.
  Computer laptop stops immediately after awhile. CPU or GPU gets really hot. Works fan CPU, GPU was not used intensely. Simple web browsing/cat/emailing.

  What becomes hot however is part to the left of the memory/wlan compartment. Is it possible that a chipset gets hot after just upgrade memory?
  I tested the memory with Memtest + for more than 3 hours. No errors.

  Moreover, the last time that my phone was in ASP it had returned with DMI saying it's Satellite L20! I dunno if that could be related...

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions,
  mentorek

  You have blown the dust anyway? As you say, maybe another component is overheating rather than the CPU or GPU. The CPU/GPU heatsink can be shared with other chips.

  Have you installed RAM high performance? His best choose RAM that has the same Timings CASE/RAS as the original factory of RAM.

  The name DMI does not cause something like this.

  PS. If you're running Vista, you must pass the BIOS and driver nVidia on the Toshiba site

• Satellite A210: Random Questions after several blue screens

  This morning at the College, I started my laptop (satellite A210)
  After entering the password started... after 5 seconds, I got a blue screen SHORT (3 seconds)... This can happen 5 times...
  then I was really p * ssed - I booted in safe mode... do you have a system recovery (in German "systemwiederherstellung")
  After doing that my laptop has begun... but now begins the horor

  1 Explorer.exe crash so that start up - so I have to start explorer.exe mauel with the Task Manager
  2. with this also sidebar, bar SCROLLING-option AND the menu upwards on the screen... you know... the one you get with the pointer on... then it appears and you can select things like brightness, volume or energysafeoptions...
  3. opening a folder takes almost 1 minute to show its files... (totally slow!)

  I ran TuneUp2008, O & O Defrag 10-Prof. and also ESET NOD32 Antivirus with the new definition (found nothing).

  ... Yes... what to do now? ... I don't know how to start programs from the point 2. and 3. ! Please tell me how!

  Yours sincerely Nico

  What should do?
  Take the recovery CD in the CD/DVD drive and try to restore the operating system from the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  After reinstalling the laptop should run correctly if it is not a hardware problem is possible.

• Satellite Pro M45 overheating after a few updates and installation of new HARD drive

  I have a sat pro p4 overheated now. I tried the old hoover and this does not work. The thing is that both fans do not seem to turn on. All this happened after I downloaded some updates to put on a new hard drive, I bought.

  Now the fans are not at all turns. My m/b is actually a model of the A45 and I put a 2.0/128/400 CPU inside. The old man who was in it is a 2.4./512/533

  It seems that you have changed almost everything on the laptop.
  Motherboard, CPU, HARD drive, etc.

  Believe me; It s not easy to say why fans don t start. How everyone should exactly known what you did on your laptop?
  Maybe the card mother doesn t provide the power for the fan or the connection is failing.
  Are you sure that the motherboard is ok?

  Unfortunately, all we can do is to hear from you.
  But usually some diagnostic tests are needed to locate the fault.
