  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.

• Does support Satellite A100-667 HDD SATA2

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 - 667 PSARRE and I need to know if it takes in charge a new HD 250 GB at 7200 RPM SATA2 (or SATA/300).
  I don't know if it supports SATA 2. Can someone help me please.
  TNX

  As much as I know for this old model of laptop that you cannot use SATA2 hard drives. On the capacity Toshiba doesn't offer any concrete info but I guess that this laptop will be able to manage with 250 GB HARD drive.

  Try it! I don't know where you live, but if there is a compatibility issue, you can send back the HARD drive. Just ask how long you must send the product to the back.

I tried, clean XP SP3 and other Toshiba utils, programs like drive HARD silencer, Ubuntu, now I'm working on Win 7 RC, the problem remains, even when I select No to turn off the hard disk in the Windows settings.

  Can someone help me?

  Have you tried to reset the BIOS to its default settings?

• Can satellite A100-999 - I recover the HDD password?

  Hi all

  I had a virus, so I formatted my computer, a Satellite A100-999. After I did, I was going to install Windows Vista, but I never could, because they ask my HDD password and I don't know what password it is that, I don't see it anywhere. My computer has been installed in the store, I only have a bootable disc, they gave me.

  My question is: How can I recover my HDD password? Is it possible? I can boot the system in any other way?

  Thank you!

  It of not possible recovery or removes the HARD drive password. An ASP peut t for this too.

  Sorry, but in this case, you need a new HARD drive. There's no other way.

• Replacement of HDD on the Satellite A100-644

  Can someone tell me where to find the specs for the new HD tech so that I make sure that I have buy the right thing?

  According to specification for laptop, your laptop's SATA HDD inside. So everything you need to do is to buy a SATA HDD.
  Theoretically, you can use more HARD drive capacity of 120 GB.
  I have updated more older M70 with 250 GB SATA HDD and everything was OK.

  So, check prices and buy new HARD drive. I recommend one with 200 GB. It should be enough, isn t it?

• Update on the Satellite A100 HDD

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A100 (PSAA9A-0CU004), which came with a 80 GB hard drive.
  Anyone know the max HDD capacity this notebook can handle, as I want to upgrade to a larger disk.

  Thank you

  AFAIK the Satellite A100 already has a HARD drive with SATA interface.

  On the SATA interface, there is no capacity limit you can buy each HARD drive with SATA interface, what you want.
  The new HARD disk must have SATA and 2.5.

• Satellite A100 restarts when HDD WD connected?

  Hi, I searched this issue in this forum, but I don't find it so here you go.

  I recently bought a WD portable hard drive and when I plugged, he enrolled in the icon section, then it would go to a blue screen and do a reboot even time I had connected hard drive. He wouldn't even give me the option/Assistant to install the program.

  My laptop is S100 998. I took it to where I bought and received a refund. They have had problems with it on his computer to test as well. I tried another unit in the store and he did exactly the same thing. Finally, I tried another brand that worked well, but the whole point of getting this portable hard drive was because of his rep.

  Do you think it's my phone who is at fault with the type of hard drive, or they are not as good as they say.

  See you soon

  Boyfriend sorry but if people in the store say that hard drives are not so good, why do you now your laptop is not OK?
  Either incidentally, S100 998 is unknown to me. Maybe you have Satellite A100 and not S100.

• Satellite A100: Windows 7 and 1 TB HDD

  I have Toshiba Satellite A100-998.

  Can I install Windows 7?
  Can I put my disk HARD WD Scorpio Blue 1 TB SATA/300 5200 RPM?

  I checked the Toshiba download page and your laptop is supported for Win7 32 bit, so you can install it. All the necessary drivers and Toshiba applications are available.

  Update HARD drive?
  What to say? You have portable 4 years old and want to upgrade with 1 TB of HARD drive? Even the most recent notebooks don't have hard drives. I put t know if everything will be ok, but I think that upgrading HARD drive with new HARD drive up to 300 or 400 GB might be Ok. Do you agree with me?

• Satellite A100-405 - HARD 7200 RPM disk upgrade

  I want to know if I can improve the my Satellite a100-405 with a fujitsu hdd 7200 sata-II

  The original is FUJITSU MHV2160BT sata 150 MB/s depending on the Everest software.

  SATA controller is compatible and that's why it is not a big problem to use the SATA II HDD SATA I (150 MB/s) HARD drive.

  But of course the SATA II HDD will not reach full implementation and speed will be slowed to the limitation of SATA controller.

• Need info on type of hard disk for Satellite A100

  I have a model of Satellite A100 (PSAA9E)

  It used to power up, but I need all the info on the hard drive, which models are compatible (plug-and-play style) so I can buy a 2nd hand laptop and use my old hard drive
  (assuming this is possible)

  In Satellite A100 a SATA interface HARD drive and if you want to use the data you can simply buy box USB HDD and connect it to any PC or laptop as external device.

• Satellite A100 WIndows XP SP3 - Corrupted registry?

  Toshiba Satellite A100 WIndows XP SP3.

  A few days ago I noticed that windows update has stopped working and I had network problems. New research has shown that the BITS service did not start and other services such as DCOM did not begin. Fix - It of MS failed with the error code 7255. I tracked the issue to a possible Trojan horse as the registry keys had been renamed % fystemroot %. I've edited the keys to any %, according to online tips and delivered to market successfully. This has not fixed the BITS issue but more googling suggested that I needed a parameters key that included the Systemdll=%systemroot%\windows32\qmgr.dll value in the BIT key in HKLM system.

  I added this, but now when machine re boots I get a partial screen, no task bar, I can perform certain tasks by CTRL-ALT-DEL and the functioning of the Task Manager. I tried to cancel the changes by running regedit, but it does not work. None of the user accounts, even in the CMD has access to most of the services or the directories.

  I have the Toshiba repair disk but it seems to want to do a complete re-install XP, while I have backups, it would be my last option because I still have to lose data.

  MS KB307545 says not to use on install OEM (I have a full version of XP SP2 I could boot from it) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545 but did not say what you need to do.

  By pressing F8 during does not start safe mode and I can not find a mechanism beginning a system restore. I should have one from last Tuesday.

  Anyone has any ideas.

  Hello

  See this Microsoft Knowledge base article:

  + How to start the System Restore tool by using the option of safe mode with the command prompt in Windows XP +.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304449/

  If you have an original Win XP disk then you could start using this disc. The installation of Win XP supports a repair option that start you press the R key (when windows asks to press R).

  Otherwise I put t see any other option as to reinstall new OS

• TR/agent.1220467 detected as I ran that Satellite A100 PSAA2E BIOS update file

  I was about to update my BIOS Toshiba laptop Satellite A100 PSAA2E on-site official (I downloaded the update file and unpacked to run it):
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_b * ios.jsp? service = EU
  When my antivirus (Avira Antivir Personal) has detected a TR/agent.1220467

  Of course, I stopped everything, asked to remove, Avira have another full scan, it was deleted again and restarted my PC.

  I am always very careful with what I download, but as I trusted blindly the official site of Toshiba as being safe, I don't run a virus scan on the file update and stupidly flat it once it has been downloaded.
  HOW CAN TOSHIBA HAVE INFECTED FILES TO UPDATE HIS SITE? This is really unacceptable.

  And now how I will:
  1. ensure that this virus is gone for good?
  2. switch to update my BIOS knowing that it is not safe to do?

  Please help me!
  .. .and make sure that this file to update the BIOS is not infecting hundreds of other users!

  Hello

  Don t worry buddy there is no virus
  The BIOS file is safe and I guess that your virus scan recognized the file as a virus because of the similar application procedures

  First of all you should not update your BIOS if your laptop works well!

  Second, you must disable all 3 rd party applications like virus, firewall, malware, software software of scans, while the BIOS update!
  These tools can affect or interrupt the process of updating the BIOS and the laptop cannot!

  You know that the update of the BIOS is a sensitive technique and if something goes wrong during the update, then you will not be able to power the device!
