  I m afraid the BIOS update has no procedure and therefore the ROM chip has not updated as it should. This is the reason why the laptop can not start correctly.

  I think that it of necessary to reflash the ROM BIOS module Once again, but this can be done only using a procedure of BIOS of crisis.
  As far as I know this can be done only through ASP because there is no traditional BIOS version by download.

• No games no install on Satellite L30 - 101

  Hey,.

  I have a laptop Satellite L30-101, which happened with Vista.
  When I was with Vista I had none of these problems, but since I went down to XP install no games.
  The games can go on the menu when you click on install but nothing after that, it doesn't do anything.
  The screen will stay as it is and what can I do but no installer runs.

  I am sure I have drivers properly installed but not sure that more.

  No one knows the correct driver should I use, and if this is really the problem?

  Thank you.

  Satellite L30-101 has not been delivered with the Vista operating system.
  You have received a Toshiba with Win XP Recovery disk and I wonder why you n t use this disk.
  All drivers XP, tools and utilities are already preinstalled on the recovery disk.

  I recommend that you use this disk and then try to reinstall some games

• After downgrading from Vista Satellite L30-101 does not read DVD

  Hey,.

  Like many people, I didn't like Vista and so returned to the use of Windows XP.

  In doing so, I lost a lot of things like the ability to watch DVDs and sound, most of these problems fixed so easily by downloading the drivers from this site.

  However, even after the DVD driver download I can't read DVDs yet.
  When you try to play through Windows media player I get say error message that I did not have a MPEG-2 decoder, in the section web site help, it suggests where to get one, but you have to play for each other.
  After having one in the first place, I don't think I should buy a new one.

  If anyone has a solution it would be greatly appretiated if they could let me know.

  Thank you

  PS I have a Satellite L30-101

  I think you have a codec problem, but I'm not sure. Maybe you should install the latest version of Media Player and codec Xvid, DivX and AC3. These are free (google it!). Or you can try alternative software, such as WinDVD or PowerDVD, you can try the demo versions.

• Satellite L30-101 will not boot after memory expansion

  Hello

  We have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101 with 512 MB memory

  We also bought 2 X 1 GB-compatible modules to extend the memory to its max.

  When we installed the two new modules the laptop won't boot.

  We tried to install one at the time and both work individually. I also tried 1 X 512 MB
  and 1 X 1 GB, which also worked.

  It seems that we are not the only one with this problem!

  1.5 works much better on le.5 but it doesn't seem to be a shame to have the autres.5 but its unusable!

  regards db

  I think that you have incompatible modules for mode dual channel.
  What RAM do you have?

  A module is maybe corrupted and so he doesn t run in mode dual channel.

  You can check the module with a program like Memtest86: [www.memtest86.org]

• Satellite L30-101: could not connect to Orange Livebox via WI - FI

  Hi all

  Bought my first laptop today, a Satellite L30-101 with Vista. I finally managed to connect to my livebox after filming of encryption and the Vista firewall. Now, I turned as well on I can not connect. I get a msg of error saying 'the settings saved on this computer do not match the requirements of the network. I tried to repair the i.p address and tried to change the security settings in the properties.

  Ideally, I would like to completely remove the existing profile then the Connection Wizard may start. This is probably very simple, but I am new to wifi and Vista and would be grateful if anyone could offer advice.

  Concerning
  Dave.

  Hi again,
  Following the previous, I have more the error msg. I changed the Livebox WPA security only and on the L30, I put the WPA-personal security type and TKIP encryption.

• When I start my Satellite A300 the screen remains black

  When I turn on my Satellite A300, the screen remains black and doesn't change at all... Any help please?

  What is password problem in your other thread? Already solved or what?
  If the problem persists, I don't see any sense to start this thread because people don't understand what the problem is.

  Please do not mix two questions and explain exactly what you see on the screen after turning on your laptop.

• Upgrade CPU on Satellite L30-101

  Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101. I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) successfully, but I find it incredibly difficult to get information on the replacement of the processor.

  The laptop has the latest version of the BIOS on it (3.10 - WIN - 02/19/08), but trying to find information on whats inside I'm hitting brick walls. First of all the site > http://www.toshiba-tro.de/biosinfo/< doesn't="" have="" my="" laptop="" on="" it,="">
  Product type: notebook
  Family: Satellite
  Product series: Satellite L series
  Model:? unknown
  Short model No.:? unknown

  I hope I could paste in but with the ATI chipset Intel Duo, I'm sure that it won't work but once again without knowing what in the BIOS, compatible... I got lost. Single processor I can find who can work, same package, FSB, socket is an Intel Core Solo T1350 of processor which begins at 1.86 GHz, not a huge difference, and I don't know that it cannot be the only option of replacement.

  Could someone and please help me to get the hands on info from BIOS and compatible processors for my laptop. The current Intel Celeron M Processor 410 deporting the 1.46 GHz is not good enough for Vista (cert on laptop) and basic multi-task. His way of late too even after a good tune up, ram, HD 7200 rpm upgrade. I need an upgrade of the processor, but as mentioned it is incredibly difficult to get the information which would be compatible.

  Sincerely,

  Gourcuff

  Hello

  In my opinion, your attempt to replace the CPU is false. Why? Satellite L30 is not designed to offer performance and it is designed for everyday use. Best evidence was the price. It wasn't so expensive.

  Can you please tell us why do you have new CPU? Do you use special software?

  Return to the replacement of the CPU. As you probably know laptops have limited upgrade options and it is related to the RAM and disk HARD upgrade. It's definitely not for CPU upgrade and it is not supported. Specific design, especially of the cooling system is designed for certain CPU.
  Because of this, you will not be able to find relevant info on replacement of the CPU.

  Check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

• Satellite L30-101 starts with only the PXE message

  Hi all

  I have a problem with my Satellite L30-101 (33rd PSL)
  When I start this is the message I get

  PXE - E61: MEDIA TEST FAILURE, CHECK CABLE

  PXE - MOF: EXIT PXE ROM

  OPERATING SYSTEM NOT FOUND

  I replaced the HARD drive, but I still get the same message

  Any idea?

  Thank you
  Sarra

  You replaced the HARD drive.
  That is fine, but did you install the operating system using recovery on this new HARD disk media?

• Problems of memory on the Satellite L30-101

  I have a toshiba satellite l30-101 laptop and wanted to upgrade the RAM, so I bought 2 x 1 GB sticks to put in it.
  Now, I could not find all those at 533 mhz so I bought 2 667 mhz after a talk to a technical guy who said if I had 2 the same speed it will work very well.

  Only this isn't at all that I can put a stick and it works very well with the 533 mhz.
  The one I have in if I try to put the two sticks in it comes up with errors of memory and I get the bsod that restarts my computer and did not get my games or other programs.
  Is anyway to make sure I can have both new sticks in that I really need RAM and do not want to buy different ones.
  I mean if I can get another one we should probably work well work?

  Please help im crazy trying to solve this shit

  Hello

  I think that the speed of the memory has nothing to do with the BSOD!
  In my opinion the BSOD appears due to the failure of memory!

  In addition the L30-101 supports only the FSB 533 Mhz. In this case you will not be able to run the 667 Mhz modules of memory at full speed.
  The modules will run at 533 Mhz only!

  So in my opinion, you must replace the defective module with one that works very well!

  Best regards

• Can satellite L30-101 - I change Vista to XP

  Hello

  I've been looking by changing from Vista to XP on a Toshiba Satellite L30 - 101.

  I wonder if this is possible, because I do not know abut driver problems. I found this site:

  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

  Which has a list of drivers, including those of Windows xp to the L30. Before I try to make the change, I wanted to just make sure that it is possible and any issues i should know about.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  As I m not wrong not the Satellite L30-101 belongs to the series of PSL33E.
  I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and found this series of laptop and I also found the XP drivers.

  Therefore, you can change the Win XP and you will also be able to reinstall Win XP drivers!

  Good news. ;)

• Satellite M40 screen is compatible with Satellite L30-101?

  Hello
  I have a Toshiba L30 101 and the screen is cracked.
  I have the opportunity to buy not working Toshiba M40 - 221, which has a display of work.

  The screen will work and work well.
  Both models are in the range of satellite and both use the screen 15.4 inches and made the same applay to the keypad/keyboard

  Thanks for your time

  Hello

  I can't say for sure, but if two laptop computers supports the same screen size then you have a good chance to get the screen M40 working with L30 Series notebook.
  But if you want to be 100% sure, then I'd take a screen which has been published for the L30 series.

• Satellite L30-101 - it can not turn on

  Hello

  I had a Toshiba L30-101 given to me for my birthday in 2006, he initially had Windows Vista on it so because of problems with this program.
  I was later forced to get rid of this program and to install Windows XP, and I have not had a problem since.

  However, last night, I forgot to bring my laptop, normally I do not panic as it happens in sleep mode, and yet when I lift the cover (when I do this windows XP starts and allows me to reconnect my phone) I have met with a black screen, nothing has been loading, nothing has changed, I was faced with a black screen.
  I pressed the standby key and nothing happened, nothing happened even when I hold the button for a bit longer.

  I disconnected the battery, and although 2 green lights showed that I should be connected on the right, I was always with a black screen. I left him a little and he's always like now, only 2 green lights went and it seems that there is no life be it current. I can not turn on,
  I tried to reboot and nothing has changed.

  I don't know what to do as this has never happened before. I might add that, even if I changed the program for XP I didn't no problems with it for 2 years and a half, until now.

  Could someone help me at all?

  Hello

  Have you tried to remove the battery and the AC adapter? Remove the two, wait an hour and try again.

  If it doesn t work I think that there is something wrong with the motherboard. Maybe it needs to be replaced or another part.
  Therefore, you can contact the nearest ASP and ask for help.

  Good luck!

• Satellite a200-1sv screen remains black at startup in Vista

  Hello

  We have a problem with Toshiba Satellite A200-1sv my girlfriend: when we started, most of the time, the screen remains black, while the computer starts: after awhile, we can hear the sound of windows (vista).

  In addition, if connect us another screen of the computer, it displays the scheduled start screen. In order to use the computer, it must launch a few times... The support guy where we bought the computer told us "the computer is not compatible with Vista, we cannot do something".

  Can we do something?

  Thanks in advance,
  Ju

  I have to smile to read this message
  Mainly, this statement is funny;
  > The support guys where we bought the computer told us "the computer is not compatible with Vista, we can't do something."

  I think that this laptop has been delivered with the Vista operating system. So why the guy said that the laptop is not compatible with Vista?  :| …. that's nonsense.

  First the A200-1SV belongs to the PSAE6E series and it s fully Vista capable.
  Secondly, like you say the external screen displays home Toshiba screen and so I guess that's just a matter of adjustment.
  What you can do is to use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between display devices.

  If it doesn't help to try to put the laptop back to the factory settings using the Toshiba Recovery CD!
  In this case, the new OS, driver and tools will be installed and then everything should work fine.

  Good bye

• Satellite P100 - the screen goes black

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P100 and randomly, the screen goes black but the system continues to operate. I downloaded the latest drivers from toshiba, all power options the maximum support, run ccleaner and driver Sweeper to remove the old entries driver, re-installed the login screen of the mobo and nothing seems to work.

  The screen goes black sometimes when using windows but STILL turns black as soon as the ramps of gpu for example of playing a video or comparative analysis of the graphics card.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Model: Toshiba Satellite P100-PSPA6A-02NO21
  Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7200@2GHz
  GPU: Nvidia Quadro nvs 510 m
  Chipset: Intel i945PM
  HARD drive: Fujitsu 148GB
  RAM 2 GB
  Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 operating system

  Hey,.

  > ALWAYS goes black as soon as the ramps of gpu for example of playing a video or comparative analysis of the graphics card.
  This means that the graphics card is defective

  Theoretically, it could be an overheating problem too. Higher time can also cause a black screen. You should try everything that is possible to clean your laptop using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans.

  If it doesn t help it seems to be a hardware malfunction but seriously a point would be interesting: have you noticed the same thing with preinstalled OS (Vista) Toshiba?
