  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Portege M400 with Windows XP Tablet Edition. Now, I bought a new 160 GB drive. This disk can be recognized within the location Phase Installation of XP. Do I need a new driver?

  Best regards

  Hello

  You have to install and include the Portege M400 RAID drivers.
  It's a bit confusing because little protégé M400 does not support 2 HARD drive, but the RAID driver is required.

  Please check the Toshiba European page and download the RAID driver. During the installation of XP her you have to press the F6 key to include the driver from an external USB FDD drive.

  After you have included the don t RAID driver format HARD drive because this will lead to the driver losing.

• HP 6120 t BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller

  Hello

  HP 6120 t (vista) BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller. The other SATA disk and the DVD player came with the machine.

  I hooked my old 200 GB Hitachi drive via the controller. I also put the jumbers in the present as a slave. I also took the original WD drive and just connect the IDE hard drive. BIOS do not show any drive at all.

  I would try something possible at this time I have a lot of my data on the old disk.

  Thanks appreciate any suggestion.

  Try to enter the BIOS and I believe under change of Advanced menu of SATA to IDE or Enhanced.

  You need to do when you install Windows XP or you will get a blue screen and it does not start.

  Don't forget chang back when you put it in your drive home hard sata.

• Satellite 1800-712 does not recognize my USB external HARD drive

  Hello

  I would really appreciate the help. I own a satellite 1800-712. I have receently bought a usb external hard drive for some extra memory (IE Toshiba MK4026GAX USB Device)

  When I connect it to my usb port it records any with the computer. The green light so there is power to the hard drive. The usb ports recognized of other fine features (a modem and memory stick)

  I tried the external hard drive on a desktop pc and it works fine.

  I have downloaded all windows xp service pack updates and updated my bios. Don't know what to do now.

  Please help and thank you in advance!

  Hello

  Although sometimes, I know that the OS is not able to recognize the external USB device, because the device external USB (HDD) consumes more energy than the 500mA.
  The USB ports provide 500mA power and if the device needs more power so it s is not possible for the Windows operating system to recognize the external device.
  You have an external power supply for the USB HDD? You should use it.

• Vista does not recognize the 640 GB hard drive

  Sorry to tell you that everything you have * is * acknowledged. Although
  you think you have a 640 GB drive, you actually have a 596 GB disk.
   
  All drive manufacturers qualify hard 1 GB 1 000 000 000 bytes, while
  the rest of the computer, including the windows world, defines it as 2 to
  the 30th power bytes (1 073 741 824). So is a disk of 640 billion bytes
  actually about 596 GB.
   
  To some people pointed out that the official international standard defines
  the 'G' of GB as 1 billion, not 1 073 741 824. Correct if they
  are, using the binary value of GB is so well established in the
  World of computing that I consider using the decimal value of 1 billion of
  be misleading marketing.

  Hello @ all,

  I tried to install the HARD drive, but it seems to be not recognized by the BIOS. Any chance to get this problem resolved?
  With Acronis Disk Man. I get an error message: No. HDD installed!
  BIOS version is 1.80, HARD drive is a Seagate ST9320421ASG (Momentus 7200.3 320).

  Thanks in advance

  Hello!

  Have you tested the HARD drive in a laptop or in an external enclosure? Maybe it s faulty.
  Or you test another HARD drive in this notebook.

  Normally a 320 should work in Tecra M9.
  There is a new version of the BIOS on the Toshiba, but I doubt that the problem of the article, but try to update.

• Satellite M40X-112: can I use the 160 GB HARD drive

  I have a Satellite M40X-112 lapptop and I want to upgrade my 80 GB to 160 GB internal drive.
  How is know possible? (Toshiba hotline cannot give me an answer only that a 80 GB drive has been tried with these lapptop!). Anyone have experience with that?

  I read several statements here in the forum about HDD upgrade on the M40X and it seems that there is a limitation in the BIOS.
  The BISO will not recognize the 160 GB HARD drive and that is why you will be not possible to install an OS or you will not be able to boot from this device.

  Please use the "advanced search" from this forum to find discussions on upgrading the HARD drive.

• Satellite A110-294 does not recognize the wireless card

  Hello

  the question is:
  Why my Satellite A110-294 does not recognize the wireless card?

  I re - install Xp PRO with all the drivers.

  I have try all the drivers Wireless: Wlan intel + proset intel atheros wlan + wlesscmgr

  I don't understand, can you help me?

  Thank you
  André

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the A110-294 uses the Atheros WLan card and therefore the Atheros Wlan dirver should be the right one.

  You can find the latest driver for Atheros WLan here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

  Just a question;
  You see the local network card in Device Manager? I mean, you should see an Ethernet controller or an unknown device in the network adapters
  The driver is missing, then the device must be marked with a yellow exclamation point

• Satellite 1900 (PS192E) - does not recognize the CD/DVD

  Hey all,.

  I just bought a Toshiba Satellite 1900 (PS192E) and place an old 20 GB HDD from an old laptop.

  When I boot, the screen is in VGA 16 color mode, it recognizes the DVD player, but does not recognize the CD/DVD when inserted. I tried to install and run the utility "driver robot" Toshibas, but the display is such that I see all of the screen to start the search.

  If there is someone out there who could give me some advice, I would be extremely grateful.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  OK, you have installed the disk HARD of another laptop but too format the HARD drive? I mean if the HARD drive performed from another laptop, you need to reinstall Windows because now you have other hardware installed.
  What version of Windows is it?

  If you want to install a driver for the graphics card go into Device Manager and select Update driver.

  Hello

  Is your AC adapter malfunctions or there is something wrong with the power supply to electronic s laptop.
  In the first case you could purchase a new compatible AC adapter and could check if the laptop can run successfully.
  The second possibility is a serious hardware problem, but in this case, the laptop must be checked by an authorized technician.

• Satellite L30-105 does not recognize the 1 GB of additional RAM

  Hi there I hope someone can help me

  I have a Satellite L30-105 PSL33E, which came with 1 GB of ram installed (2 x 512 MB made by TeamViewer)
  and it's terribly slow with vista, not to mention programs.
  The toshiba website says max RAM is 2 GB, so I bought a Kingston 1 GB ram chip to increase the ram to 1.5 GB. I thought should try before moving to 2 GB

  However after installing memory vivid it's show still only 1 GB in windows and in the bios (894 + the rest for video). It has the latest available BIOS on the site 3.10, yet still does not recognize the chip.

  The chip is installed in the lower slot, including the original 512 at the top (closest to the keyboard)

  Are limited to only some of the Satellite of RAM?
  The old subjects indicate if kingston does not work try corsair.
  Other topics suggested to change slots
  Others suggest that it may have only two of the same ram chips in IE 2 x 512 or 2 x 1 GB, you may not have 1 of each

  Can anyone help? everyone knows about similar problems?

  I will not buy any more RAM to try different brands for the same issue to occur

  Hello

  The L30-105 is able to manage the 1024Mo modules in each location it should be able to update the RAM up to 2 GB.

  > Why the RAM 1 GB module cannot be recognized?
  Perhaps the two modules are not compatible with each other
  I would recommend using two identical modules of the same manufacturing
  I use Kingston modules, they are ok for me

• Satellite A200-1AE does not recognize the USB 2.0 flash drive

  I have a problem because my satellite A200-1AE with Microsoft Vista does not recognize the USB 2.0 flash drive. He asks me a program/software!
  The same USB works without problem on other computers with vista!

  Someone knows what to do?

  Hello

  First of all, you must disconnect all USB devices and must remove the USB ports and controllers in the Device Manager.
  After this procedure, you must restart the laptop. After a new restart the Vista operating system should recognize the USB ports and should reinstall USB drivers again.

  Then you must update the Vista to the State! All fixes and patches must be installed. Please note that you will have to visit the MS Update site for all patches

  Notes; MS has released a beta of Vista SP1. I installed it on my laptop and it has solved several problems.

  Best regards

• Satellite A100 does not recognize the new CD/DVD drive

  I bought a new CD/DVD drive for my A-100 of Toshiba Satellite age of four year old went crazy and wouldn't work.

  Unfortunately, I bought a DVD of Toshiba Portege A100 / reader Combo CD - RW that is not exactly what I had before the jump that it will still work.

  Unfortunately, I'm surprised because it does not recognize the CD/DVD drive at all: /...
  It seems to work, and the light blinks I think that it is not broken.

  I just plugged it because that's the way I was told to do.
  I need to download the drivers to operate?
  It will work on my laptop, or is it a "most recent" CD player that will not work with my laptop?

  I'd appreciate any help. THX

  The BIOS does not recognize this new CURIOUS because the player seems not to be fully compatible.
  I think there bad master/slave/c-salt settings

  As you know these settings can be changed on the external CD/DVD drive for desktop switching jumper. But it is not possible for computers portable CD/DVD players.

  You can solve it only purchase a new compatible disc.

  Usually the ASP in your country could help you buy this disc of these guys here
  However, you can consult the user manual if there are a few details on the compatible sides.
  My user manual provides this information.

• Satellite L30-113 does not recognize the two modules DIMM RAM

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite L30 113.
  It has 512 MB of RAM and therefore struggled to run Windows Vista, so I bought another 1 GB of RAM.
  It's DDR2 553 MHZ (PC4200.

  The problem I have is that the laptop does not recognize both DIMMs, i.e. the old 512 MB and the new 1 GB when they are in the whole PC. I tried the two DIMM individually in both slots and there is no problem, but when I install both the system sees just 1 GB. I tried the DIMMs around two ways but without success.

  Did I miss something?
  They should be the same size as in the bad old days?
  What is going on?

  Thank you

  Adam

  > I tried the two DIMM individually in both slots and there is no problem, but when I install both the system sees just 1 GB
  Seems that the two RAM modules are not completely compatible...
  I've read several times on these issues and to be honest it s are not uncommon

  I advise you to buy two identical RAM modules ad then to try again

  I'm afraid there is no other solution for your problem of m.
