  Recently I upgraded my laptop to one from the same supplier so all I had to do was to upgrade a few drivers on the hard drive.  My copy of ADE is unfortunately not too cooperative.  Whenever I try to download an eBook, I get the message "E_AUTH_BAD_DEVICE_KEY_OR_PKCS12".  Uninstall ADE (three versions), as well as cleaning the registry does not clear the error.  And I can't cancel and reauthorize my new laptop as to authorize is greyed out.  Anyone else having this problem?

  Problem solved finally.  Used regedit.

• Is it possible to upgrade the Satellite A100-906 with 160 GB 7200 RPM HARD drive

  Hello guys,.

  First of all, I would like to congratulate all the people here for their good advice.
  As for my question, I want to upgrade my HARD drive. I have the laptop A100-906, which has a drive HARD 100 GB 5400 RPM Hitachi.

  The hard drive, I would like to buy, is also Hitachi but with the highest capacity (160 GB) and RPM faster (7200 against 5400).
  I wonder, if my laptop supports this drive and if I have problems with temperature and noise, because the HARD drive runs at 7200 RPM.

  To summarize the above, is it really useful to replace my old 5400 RPM HARD drive to a new 7200 RPM?
  Should I buy a new one with 5400 RPM to avoid having problems of temperature and noise?

  Please let me know your opinion and thank you in advance.

  Hello

  As you already know we can only speculate on the size of the HARD disk
  In my opinion the 160 GB would be possible. But it s just my personal opinion.

  In any case, the higher speed (7200 RPM) HARD drive should be a problem. I noticed that many laptops use 7200 RPM HDDs and 5200 RPM. So I imagine that the heat produced by the HARD drive shouldn't t increase the level of temperature at a critical level.

• Satellite C660D - 1 3 - How to remove the HARD drive password?

  So, my laptop is unrecoverly dead ;(
  (Toshiba Satellite C660D - 1-3)
  but the HARD drive still works (Toshiba HDD2L04 320)
  the problem is, I protected with a password that I can not turn off.

  I have the password, I could also save all my important files to an old crappy HP laptop running.

  But now I'd like to use it as an external drive, I can't as long as it is protected (I tried a few PC, nothing worked).

  When I try to disable it in the BIOS of the old HP, it asks me on a second password, a password for the master user... but I've never had one in my Toshiba :/

  What now? What I have to go to a store and try an another Toshiba or is it a tool to disable the password of windows or linux?

  Hello

  Unknown HARD disk password can not be removed... even the authorized service provider Toshiba will not be able to remove this password disk HARD unknown.
  In this case, the HARD drive will be useless

  Take a look at this FAQ from Toshiba:
  Is it possible to delete a HARD drive password?

• Satellite A100 PSAA2E Setup hangs after connecting new HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a problem with TOSHIBA Satellite A100 PSAA2E (3 year old laptop)
  I bought the new SAMSUNG SPINPOINT 250 GB SATA (model HM250JI) hard drive.

  After connection, the computer hangs on the first screen. I can't access the BIOS Setup (press F2)
  I can't boot the CD of form (I can't select same drive to start by pressing F12)

  It just hangs.

  When the HARD drive is unplugged I can access the configuration of the BIOS or boot from CD. When the original hard drive (FUJITSU 40BG) is connected, everything is ok.

  I updated the BIOS to version 1.5 to the a more recent 2.6, but it did not help.

  HARD drive runs under windows xp, when connected by USB port. It is formatted with NTFS: a primary partition(15GB), a stretch with two logical partitions (20BG, GB 215).

  You have no idea where could be the problem?
  Should I format hard drive in a different way?

  BR,

  hosss

  Hello

  Check if your new HARD drive has been fitted with a small jumper that controls the master/slave/c-salt settings.

  A friend of mine bought a new HARD drive and BIOS didn't recognize because the rider has been set to the wrong position.

• Satellite L500-22R - high slope noise from the HARD drive

  Hello

  Since a few days ago can hear an eek/whistle from my L500-22R HARD disk, which remains permanently.
  I think to change the HARD drive?

  Thaks for your support.

  It looks like it could start to run out.
  I would like to replace the HARD drive or upgrading to an SSD.

• Satellite L350-170 - sounds of clanking from the HARD drive

  My laptop Satellite L350-170 performs a kind of rattling noise when the hard drive light flashes.
  Is this normal because this is a replacement one but that I had did not all sounds.

  Hello

  It is very difficult to say why this noise appears.
  I have two laptops. On a laptop, the HARD drive clicks and creates its strange but 4 years it worked correctly.
  The other HDD doesn t create sounds

  So, as you can see not really easy to tell what could cause this noise of rattle, but I recommend creating a file backup.
  In the worst cases could die your HARD drive and as a result, a backup is always recommended.

  You said that the HARD drive has been changed so maybe you should ask ASP for more details and maybe this HARD drive will be replaced again.

• Satellite A205-S4777 - XP does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hello!

  Recently I buyed a new satellite Toshiba A205-S4777 with Windows Vista home premium installed
  and I noticed too many errors in Windows Vista and the pc is very slow so I decided to downgrade to XP

  I want to directly install Windows XP but the installer does not recognize the hard drive or more exactly controllers!

  I nLite Sata drivers in Windows Xp Sp2, I bought on the microsoft.com site!

  Everything worked well.
  The Installer recognized fine hard and Setup finallased!

  But here's the problem when loading windows and try to pass on gorge yourself sort of blue screen one unreadable!

  And restarts and let, it does all day the same thing!

  I'm afraid that I have not nLite the right drivers.

  Is there anyone Heve downgraded this model?
  Thanx

  Hello

  Maybe you did not use good SATA driver?  :| Who knows
  The point is that there are two different versions of Intel Matrix Storage Manager supports different chipsets.
  I put t know what chipset is in charge of your laptop but you should check this and must also check the description of the Intel Storage Manager and check what chipsets are supported.

  In addition, you should have a look here in this doc from Toshiba:

• Satellite L305D S5895: Win 7 cannot find the HARD drive or cannot format the HARD drive on a clean install

  I have laptop Satellite L305D S5895 of the customer. It was delivered to me by the customer who tried to install Windows XP Pro, Vista and none would install.
  He said he tried all the CD that he had finally dropped on it and delivered it to me installation.

  When I got the score have been removed, so I tried to install Win 7 and when I do a custom install, I get an error indicating that the hard drive can not be formatted on disk 0 or it will give an error that no hard drives have been found.

  I have reset the bios default and no matter what I do, it won't format or find the hard drive. I was going to upgrade the bios, but the only way I found to upgrade the bios is once windows is installed.

  Everyone has ideas about this laptop so I can get a system installed. I checked the bios and there is no parameters for a sata, raid or IDE disk drive, so it seems that this version cannot be changed.

  Thanks for anyone who can help you.

  Hello

  First of all it is an American notebook series.
  [Satellite L305D-S5895 | http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=2144776& rpn = PSLC0U & modelFilter = L305D-S5895 & SelCategorie = 3 & selFamily = 1073768663]

  The laptop supports a processor AMD and ATI chipset.
  This means that the drivers SATA is part of the ATI graphics card driver.

  You must include the first SATA driver in order to install the Windows operating system.
  You could add the SATA driver for the Windows disk using software like nLite / vLite

• Satellite A30 PSA30E - BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hi all
  I have a Satellite A30 (PSA30E) and I start the computer. When I enter the BIOS it does not recognize the hard drive.
  Does anyone no what I can do?
  Is it possible to restore the BIOS?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

  Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
  If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

  Please provide more info. You see error messages?

• Satellite L20-214 - isolate bad sectors on the HARD drive?

  Dear Sir

  My laptop fell off my table leading to serious hard drive problems. The hard drive now has some bad sectors that can be repaired with the chkdsk command. I managed to get my data on an external hard drive. Despite the bad sectors, I can reinstall it however from the recovery cd. Starting after that time consuming (1.5 hours) and after starting Windows I get the error messages from programs that cannot be started. It's the same thing after each reinstall. My guess is that the recovery disk writes data on the same spot every time both on bad sectors.

  I was wondering if theres a way to fix or even isolate bad sectors on the disk, so I can continue to use my laptop.

  Your help is very appreciated.

  Hello

  You can try HDD Regenerator 1.61 (HDD Regenerator is a unique program for regeneration of physically damaged hard disk drives. It does not hide bad sectors, it really restores them).
  However, the best way is to buy a new hard drive :)

• Satellite C670-11 q clicking loud noise the HARD drive

  Hello!

  I helped my neighbor to find a new laptop and the entire installation and start-up.

  We ordered a C670-11 q and it works very well, theres just a nuisance.
  The drive made strong rattling noises, not as a dying or working drive. It's the same sound when you turn a disc, just a lot stronger. I guess that's the "arm of disc" that goes into its safe position.

  I don't know if this laptop has a shock sensor to do this? The laptop was flat on the table, and there where NO vibrations while she does. There are no clicks under load, but they occur randomly when walking to the idle or surf/write normal.

  I checked also save energy options and disabled to turn the disk, without help.
  Also, this seemed odd, because the clicks occur often several times in a row. But there is no doubt it more when running on the battery.

  I am running the BIOS and latest drivers in the area of support (as of yesterday).
  The disk is configured in performance mode, I'm testing battery economy - should I?

  And no, the drive took a beating. I was the first person to turn it on.

  The drive is Hitachi, I don't run their analysis - no error.

  Any help is greatly appreciated: o)

  > The drive makes some noises clicking on, not as a dying drive or work. It's the same sound when you turn a disc, just a lot stronger. I guess that's the "arm of disc" that goes into its safe position.

  One of my computer portable HARD drive makes such noise too.

  I m not exactly why, but I also think that it is at the head of discs moving record position.

  However, I think that this is not really a malfunction since the laptop works pretty well and I didn't notice any problems with the HARD drive or files but I have created a backup of my files, just to be sure that you know
  I think you should save the date just to be sure

• Satellite Pro S300L: howto get rid of the HARD drive password

  Hi all

  yesterday I thought it was a good idea to put the HARD drive on this new computer laptop password.
  But now I want to get rid of him again. I remember, I can't find how to turn it off again.
  The ACPI Bios version is 3.00
  I have "updated" with a program from this site to version 1.10.
  No change.

  Someone knows how to remove this HDD user password or disable the system that asks?

  Thank you

• Satellite 1805-S253: How can I replace the HARD drive?

  Anyone know where I can find a manual installation to install the new hard drive? Recently bought a new drive hard, but don't can't find how can I change drive.
  TKS.

  Hello

  As far as I know the HARD drive is placed on the right side of the laptop.
  I think it's on the same side where the reader is placed.

  1. turn the computer.
  2. remove the screw of the cover of the HDD location and remove the cover.
  3. remove the screws fixing the HARD drive ASSY.
  4. hold the HARD drive door handle and remove the drive HARD ASSY.
  5. remove the screws that attach the HARD drive.
  6 detach the HARD drive from the HARD drive support.

  That's all
