• Satellite M70-151 - not possible to install new HDD

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Satellite M70-151. bunch of old hard drive (100 GB Hitachi) reached the Windows XP screen then just ends with a blue screen a turn off laptop, immediately. I had to restore my data with an application file-rescue of another PC. It was not possible to start from old hard drive yet.

  Then I bought a Western Digital SATA II 250 GB hard drive that put my Windows XP CD in DVD player installed and tried to start. The laptop turns off as soon as the laptop computer tried to access the HARD disk.
  Thought, it was question of SATA II disk and tried a Samsung 160 GB Sata I - same result.

  BIOS recognizes the correct drives.

  If I try to boot from old hard drive, it shows the issue I mentioned first, but as before it reaches the Windows XP Boot screen before moving on to the blue screen before turning off the laptop. So start goes further than the boot with new hard drives

  The Windows XP CD I used is not the restore CD that came with the laptop, but a normal license.

  The heat is not a problem, I cleaned the CPU fan there is enough space to breathe the cold air mobile, the temperature is ok.

  * My questions are: *.

  Is there any special application running on laptops satellite, like special software of Toshiba, perhaps Backup, should I be aware of?
  What I need to preformat the hard drive, Toshiba-Hardware will recognize the hard drive?

  It would be great to get help on this issue, because I'm out of ideas. Thanks in advance!

  Hello Andrew

  This behavior is very strange. I have some old Satellite M70-159 with 100 GB HARD drive. I also tested how it will work with a 250 GB HARD drive and all is well.
  On two drives, I have installed WXP using the Toshiba recovery image.

  I answer your two questions No. to install Windows XP Home edition on this model of laptop you don't need some special Toshiba application or a piece of software.
  HDD should be recognized correctly by the BIOS and the Windows XP Home edition installation procedure should work well.
  What you can try is to set the BIOS to the default settings and try again.

  The strange thing for me is that judgment. The blue screen tells me that there may be some serious hardware problem, the HARD drive controller might be. It's really not easy to say with certainty what can be the problem.

• Satellite A300d-17f not fast enough?

  Don t you think Satellite A300d-17f series are not quickly even if high memory, high processor?
  Mine is not fast that other machines that have low properties!
  I put t understand what kind of problem a± do! Thank you masters

  What do you mean by not fast?
  Fact the laptop start slowly or what?

  I think that you should not compare the speed of different specifications if the same software, the same operating system and the same applications were not installed.

  If Notepad starts slowly, then go to the msconfig-> Startup tab and disable some processes is not necessary.
  The background process may significantly slow down the books the boot process.

• Satellite M40 does not load before the BIOS screen

  When I turn on my Satellite M40 unfortunately it does not happened on 7/8ths blue bar going across the screen.

  That left me completely baffled as what to do.

  Apparently, it could be repaired by removing the cables on my CMOS battery?

  If someone knows how I would go all this? or have any other ideas?

  Thank you xx

  Hi Dec,

  Blue scroll bars indicate that the Wondiows operating system is loaded from the hard drive. If this process hangs while loading, then it is likely that the hard drive itself is defetive or else the files that are being loaded are corrupt and cannot be loaded.

  Interfere with the CMOS chip will not fix this problem because the BIOS has already been loaded at this point.

  If you have access to a bootable CD/DVD (such as Norton Disk Doctor) then I siggest you boot from it and running a scan of your hard drive. Alternatively you can try reinstalling your operating system of the Toshiba recovery CD but it won't replace your own data on your hard drive.

• Re: Satellite A300D-15B - slow start

  Hello

  (1) I recently bought the laptop today and it really takes a long time to start and be able to work with. After that, it works perfectly fine. In fact the time he must start up is exactly 3 minutes. Any recommendations? I really need help.

  (2) is it possible that I can install a copy of windows XP on this machine?

  Thanks in advance

  Nicos

  Hello

  Your laptop boots a little more because there are many background processes that initially load upward.
  Readers of Toshiba and the tools to control different features like the FN, utility zooming, keypad keys touch, Toshiba command buttons and so on
  These tools must be loaded at the beginning to make sure that all of these mobile features will work and run correctly.
  Of course, you can disable the loading of simple applications in msconfig.
  Simply remove the mark about the process in the Startup tab.

  is >) possible that I can install a copy of windows XP on this machine?
  Why not? You can install Win XP, if you wish.

• Satellite A300D (PSAKCE) - BIOS is damaged and does not start

  I formatted computer after when I put update computer BIOS is frozen and it does not work now. File is true where I download from Toshiba Web site.
  I searched Web of Toshiba sites there was not any producere for recovery of the BIOS for the damged BIOS file. Many start-up models with some keys to the BIOS update but mine is not starting any screen only empty key.

  -Can I do it myself? Is there a procedure for Satellite A300D-17F (psakce)? I don't want to wait for the rear service it 6 months before I bought it.
  -If I send to the service, it is under warranty? I don't know any time service can be a problem. They say problem user but I reformatted the PC after I started the update program and they can not understant that sometimes.

• Problems with the installation of recovery - Satellite A300D - BSOD

  Hello

  The laptop in question (TOSHIBA Satellite A300D) recently stopped starting (BSoD).

  So, I tried using the recovery disk, but there is no help. What happens is:
  -After about 10 minutes of waiting, the first language menu load, so I click on "next".
  - Then I again click Next and accept the message that my HARD drive will be erased
  - Then I see a cmd prompt that says "try to remove all the letters of partitions possible...". »
  -There is also a minimized command prompt that says something like "RAID failed to initialize."
  -And then nothing happens.

  Is this a hardware problem? I also tried a full installation (instead of recovery), which, even once, is simply not. None of the errors is - it just freezes.

  Any help appreciated.
  Thank you.

  It is not easy to tell what can be the problem, but if you were not able to install the OS by using two different facilities CDs/DVDs, so there must be a problem with the HARD drive.

  The warranty is still valid?
  I mean you can contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and explain the situation. They can swap the HDD and again test the recovery procedure.
  Can you get somewhere 2,5 SATA HDD for testing?

• Re: Satellite A300D-13 has: problems starting - starts not or only black screen

  Hello, I have a Satellite A300D-13 has and the problem is, when I try to start the laptop for most, he tries to boot from the hard drive or the DVD drive but then he just stops and starts again immediately to do the same. In this case 4 or 5 times. Once it seems that it starts well, but the only thing I see is a black screen. And the keyboard does not work either.

  If I try several time with closing by pressing the power button (you know who I mean), I managed it starts normally (but such a situation is always annoying). Moreover, it seems that this happens only when I did use the laptop for a while. So maybe it has something to do with the temperature. But more or less 20 ° C in my room.

  In the Bios I have change the boot order of the sources (I can't change it much more)

  I am grateful for any kind of help.
  Thank you for your cooments in advance

  Hello

  The issue could be related to software, but also for the hardware problem.
  But first, we have to check if it s a software problem.

  You are using the original operating system preinstalled by Toshiba. Is this good?
  AFAIK the most recent series of laptop is equipped with HARD drive recovery option.
  In this case, the Toshiba Recovery DVD has not been delivered with the laptop but there is an option to create a.
  HARD drive recovery option can be used to reinstall and update the operating system.
  I would recommend to repair the operating system and reinstall it again by pressing the F8 key. The Advanced Startup menu should appear and then you must choose to repair your computer.

  This option will start the recovery procedure and the BONES to relocate again.
  Please check if a new facility will improve the situation with Notepad.
  In addition, it would be desirable to update the BIOS, if a newer version of the BIOS is available on the European driver Toshibas page.

  If this suggestion won't help you then whole notebooks material must be check by a local ASP.

• Satellite A300D-11 t - external microphone does not work

  Hello.

  I have the Satellite A300D-11 t, Windows Vista HP 32 bit SP1.
  After almost a year of functioning of the system, Vista decided to fail. So I reinstalled it.

  I downloaded all the necessary drivers and forgive me - no unnecessary waste, such as + help +, + acoustic silencer +, + Config Free + and so now (surprisingly fan slowed down and all the computer is colder).

  Now. When I plug the headphones with built-in microphone system does not automatically switch on this one.
  In + Control Panel / sounds + I can see that I plugged it, I can do a test and the test itself works perfectly with a helmet but + recognition + however receives sound from microphone.

  Also when music plays of any player, plug the headphones does not switch anything - music plays again from built-in speakers. The same situation with + Skype + and change any setting does not help.

  Initially, I forgot to install the audio drivers because Windows has done it for me, but adding it did not improve the situation.

  I'm starting to think that maybe I didn't install anything. Here's what I have so far:
  -lan drv - 20080715144843

  Can someone help me with this?

  Hello

  As far as I know that the laptop supports the audio chipset Conexant CX20561 then you must install the Conexant audio driver!

  Please install the SP3 of XP Win first before install you the audio driver.

  PS: If the newer BIOS version has been released then update also!
