Satellite L30-101 very slow with Vista

That's old for a few days and the slower machine, I've ever had. Anyone have any idea what I can do to speed it up.

Is there a free windows xp I can install that I already hate this vista.

I bought 3 toshiba laptops in the last 2 months and you have to admit that I didn't notice that this was not the same as the other 2 are excellent.

Thank you

Hello

> Is there a free windows Xp I can install
No, certainly not.

Have you ever heard or saw that the computer manufacturing would offers a complete operating system DOWNLOAD?
I n t. I think it would be for the account of Microsoft!
If you want to use another OS you have to buy it and then you can install it on your laptop

To my eyes, the unit is slower with Vista because this OS's need and waste of many remedies for laptop.
In my eyes he of a a big drawback of the new Vista operating system

  • 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?

    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.

  • 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.

    When I start this is the message I get

    PXE - E61: MEDIA TEST FAILURE, CHECK CABLE

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

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

  • 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 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

    Post edited by: db133

    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 1800 plays very slow DVD

    My Satellite S1800 is very slow, trying to watch movies dvd, image and voice stucks and when you watch videos from youtube, the same thing.

    Hello

    that you have correctly installed all the drivers for this machine? It's really important, because without the correct drivers you won´t be able to get the full potential of your material.

    The other thing is, it s always better (especially at these present times) to have a codecpack on the computer installed.

    Try this link and install a codecpack for having the latest codecs for video/audio files.

  • Flash 8 very slow on Vista

    Hello

    I just installed Windows Vista and Flash 8 Professional. Flash works so slow with Vista especially when when you create a clip then double click on it to go to like 7 - 10seconds to enter the clip inside. It's weird. I know this isn't my Machine because I have a fairly decent PC and I have no problem with XP.

    Is there an update for Flash and Vista?

    Here some quick Specs:
    AMD 64 X 2 (dual core) 4800 +.
    Corsair 2 GB RAM
    1 TB hard drive (4 x 250 GB)
    2 x nVidia 7900GT in SLi mode

    So, what gives? Anyone else having this problem?

    Thank you!

    I had this same problem. Fortunately, there is an easy solution.

    Find the flash.exe file in the macromedia/flash program directory. Right-click and select Properties. Go to compatibility and choose Windows XP Service Pack 2 in compatibility mode. Run the .exe file. It must switch your display settings Windows basic while in the program, but should be fixed zoom offset.

  • Satellite P200-13F slow with Vista installed

    Wow, after 2 weeks of waiting we had the newest Satellite P200-13F... fantastic... Well, is more then a couple of months... then the problems started to irritate. At the same time, we moved to another country... great, but the laptop is still away from work properly...

    In the computer store they told me laughingly that memory of 1 MB is really stupid. Everyone knows that Vista works well on 1 MB.

    So pass it... Yes, of course, to the place where? hahaha, only 1 MB more... a joke... But, we must try something... I m still crying... it doesn t do anything better then before...
    Today, Toshiba cares not less. I mean, they got the money and we have a laptop... or something that should work as it...
    Any laptop with Vista a minimum 2 MB and an upgrade to 4 MB...

    Logic that so many people complain about Vista. It will not work with 1 or 2 MB...

    No, you paid for something, which is stupid. We have to pay again to let XP is installed. Is option... fantastic, thank you very much, Mr toshiba...

    Is knowing how far I came up with this thing... This Toshiba... is there someone who knows how to fix this laptop, let me know...
    Our satellite is the laptop slower I have ever seen...

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P200 and it s great running; with Vista and Windows XP.

    First you misunderstood something; the laptop can be upgraded to 2 GB upwards and not to 2 MB ;) there is a big difference.

    Secondly the Vista works well also with 2 GB of RAM.

    I think you don t know much about computers because performance notebook doesn't depend only on the value of the RAM, but more CPU, GPU and Chipset installed!

    I think that your suggestion on nits P200 means that Notepad starts slowly, etc.
    In my opinion that you n t know that laptop computers are preinstalled with different applications that are run in the context of the OS and need material resources.

    These background processes are created by the software that controls the functions of the laptop as FN key, command buttons, touchpad, Toshiba Flashcards, internal camera, etc... etc.

    Also, the pre-installed Norton Antivirus can slow performance.
    I used the Symantec Norton Antivirus too and was not satisfied with the performance and so I deleted and replaced by the free tool called Antivir.
    My laptop is now faster and better managed, and better, I also used CCleaner to clean the operating system and the registry and removed unnecessary programs that slow down performance.

    Then maybe you should do that too and you will see that your P200 is a lot faster than you think!

    Have a boyfriend of the beautiful day :)
