• No Satellite M70-166 no reaction when the AC adapter is connected

  Hello!

  I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite M70-166.
  When I connect the charger, the laptop turns on for a while, then turns off.

  What can I do to diagnose the problem and what should be the voltage of the plug for the connection of the battery?

  I apologize in advance for my English... I'm Italian :)

  Good bye

  Hello

  There are two possibilities; the AC adapter or the motherboard is faulty.
  The device supports a 19 Volt AC adapter.

  To be honest, I think that electronic power on the motherboard works bad, which means that every mother should be replaced.

• Installing WXP on Satellite L30 - 10Y

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite L30 - 10Y (PSL33E 03L031EN) (about 2 years), it is running Vista (installed come) and I'll replace it with XP pro SP3.
  I already have the drivers (from the Division of driver Toshiba), but I wonder if there are any issues that anyone knows how I could run in this case?

  I installed OS to my house several times, built offices with absolutely no problems whatsoever, but various articles I read there seems to be a bit of a 'ball game' different when it comes to laptops?
  Also I have Vista disks more so if XP will not install I can not simply go back to Vista.

  Tips, advice or warnings very welcome...

  Thanx

• Satellite L30 - 10Y black at startup the screen upward after the installation of new modules of RAM

  Hello

  I use the L30 - 10Y model with the following memory specification:

  standard: 512 MB
  maximum scalability: 2 048 MB
  technology: DDR2 RAM (533 MHz)
  expansion module sizes: 256, 512, 1 024 MB

  I use Windows Vista Home Basic Edition with a 32-bit operating system.

  When installing, I removed the standard 512 MB module and added 2 modules of 1 GB compatible. At startup, it stays on a black screen.

  However, if I removed 1 1 GB modules and put the old 512 MB module to give me 1.5 GB, it works.

  I was wondering if anyone knows why this is and if there is anything that I can try to get the maximum of 2 gb, if it is indeed possible.

  Thanks in advance.

  According to the product page Toshiba Satellite L30 - 10Y is able to manage 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB)
  I think that the problem is related to memory modules not fully compatible
  I think a new, fully compatible RAM modules should resolve this problem.

  PS: You updated the BIOS? If this is not the case, check if a new update of the BIOS is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

• Processor hard in Satellite L30 - 10Y

  I just bought a laptop Satellite L30 - 10Y.
  The specification of State she should have a Celeron M 440 1.86 GHz.
  However, when I check in the Device Manager it shows 420 M @ 1.6 GHz.

  The support line told me to go back to the Curry of Exchange because it's a D.O.A.
  I checked the view model in the store and found that it was the same, so an Exchange was out of the question.
  I went next to PC World and checked their view model...

  Yes, even again. When I pointed out to the staff of PC world, they said, obviously got it wrong like sound specifications clearly a 420 M @ 1.60 GHz.

  If anyone has another response that Toshiba have been fitted the wrong processor on their laptop computer.

  [Edited by: admin]

  Hello

  are you really sure that a M420 is in there? Maybe it s just a software thing?

  The best will be a biosupdate to check if just the bios is the reason that an incorrect CPU is displayed.
  Just upgrade to the latest version available and give some feedback if it solved your problem.

  Hello

  Anyone know why there is no such cell phone as a Satellite L30 - 10Y? When I first registered there I had re-registered and the laptop came as a satellite L30 (PSL33).

  When I tried to access by clicking on the link for laptop computer, the following message appeared * + (sorry, but this product is not available in your area.) + *.

  Very confused!

  Hello

  To my knowledge, Toshiba designs and develops a series of portable different.

  The L30 is one of the series and it contains several submodels as L30 - 10Y, for example.

  I have goggled autour and discover that the L30 - 10Y belongs to the series of _PSL33E_ and model L30 - * 10Y was delivered in Italy and England.

  I put t know you came but I'm sure you could find another L30 - xxx model with the same specifications of hardware in your country.

• Satellite L30 - 10Y: Win XP - yellow? near bus in Device Manager controller

  Hello

  a problem with the satellite L30 - 10Y PSL33.
  In management of XP - other devices - system management bus controller device - it is to present a question mark with a small exclamation point.

  Maybe reinstall a chipset drivers, but I have not found a right driver in toshiba's site.

  You have an idea on this message and if is it all reinstall drive, what type and the parent link for download?
  Thanks in advance.

  Manuele

  Hello

  Hmm I don't very well if this entry could be linked to a m Chipset driver.
  But you can find the chipset driver yourself.
  Install a tool of diagnosis of equipment as Everest Home Edition and control hardware components. Then, you would be able to download driver chipset chipset manufacturer page.

  But in your case I recommend you delete this first device manager entry.
  Mark this bus controller and press to remove or uninstall.
  Restart the unit.

  Usually the Win XP should recognize and reinstall the device again

• Satellite L30 - 10Y - how to reset to factory settings?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L30 - 10Y, I want to back to factory setting, but how can I do this?

  Thank you
  Niall

  Hi prescott91,

  You have the Toshiba Recovery disk? If so, it is very easy: just boot from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen. The recovery disk will delete the whole HARD disk restore factory settings and then recreate the partitions.
  So if you have important data on it, make a backup of it if not already done.

  But it is also described in your user manual. Have a look at. It s interesting documentation. ;)

• Satellite L30 - 10Y: error checking after the 2 GB of RAM

  Hello

  I have a Satellite L30 - 10Y ^ months ago I walking the RAM 1.5 GB by adding a card of 1 GB of RAM in the 512 MB card provided it worked well.
  I also have walking my son Hi-Grade lapto with exactly the same specifications of RAM that worked well also. So I decided to grade until my L30 10Y with another card of the same specification to bring it up to 2 GB as specified by TOSHIBA.

  I booted the computer to find Hay presto after the message following the start screen appears * "_the file is possibly corrupted.
  The file header checksum does not match the calculated checksum_ "* the computer then froze and I turned it off."

  Controls, I did tried two cards into the two slots without change, 1 card in both slots (an empty) works very well. Other card in the two sons of slots (works Fine) the two card slots in my computer (works very well) all three cards and 512 MB card in the configuration of the slots and cards (works fine). The three cards 1 GB in all configerations cards and slots to the error message and other times 1 long beep and 2 short.
  Yes, the cards have been installed correctly. Impossible to change something to do with the BIOS, even though it may be accssed. Cannot run dvd player although I can select.

  I went back to 1.5 GB and reinstalled all OS the drive recovery Toshiba try all over again the same results. Running windows Vista Edition family Basic, Bios is the last download. RAM is compatible. Cheep Hi-Grade son accepts that all RAM in all Configurations without sentence windows XP operating system.

  Can anyone think of anything either, I have not tried, or I just have to go and by a Hi-grade computer?

  Hello

  I read your announcement carefully, and it seems that you have checked that everything what is possible
  So in my opinion the two ram modules are not compatible set
  It's the only plausible explanation for this problem.

  AFAIK the L30 - 10Y needs DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules.

  Finally the short beeps are coming from the BIOS and it means that the error has been detected.

• PCMCIA card will not install on Satellite L30 - 10y

  Hi all

  I hope someone can help with this problem. I recently bought a PCMCIA card with additional USB ports for my laptop Satellite L30 - 10y. It works on Vista basic, anyway I shoved the card into the slot and let windows install the drivers, problem is it will not load I get an error message saying that the MDT-0002 device does not charge.

  Is it a Vista problem or Toshiba thing?
  Thanks for any help on this one
  Regards Ciaran

  Hello

  I doubt that it could be a matter of Toshiba.
  I googled a bit for this device MDT-0002 error, and this error using some PCMCIA cards on different laptops from different manufacturers under Vista OS.
  Someone said that the Pcmcia.sys (PCMCIA driver) must be updated.

  I also recommend to contact manufacturer of PCMCIA card support for more details on a few issues with the Vista operating system.

  Maybe the best solution for you is to use recovery media supplied and install OS again. After that it all will again be OK.

• Satellite Pro L20: battery not charge when the power adapter is connected

  Hello

  all advice appreciated.

  I had a Satellite Pro L20 for about 18 months. Recently, battery does not charge when the power adapter is connected. The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile. However the ACPI often said that AC is "offline."

  There are two recent occurrences that coincide with this problem, I try to eliminate:

  1. my friends rat chewed by the feeder for pets! Power is Mobile OK insofar as he fled sector - the rat seems to have simply chewed by the outer cover (I see some threads, but I think that is just a shield, although I'm not an electrician).

  2. I put the laptop in hibernation for the first time. That seemed to mess up the system a bit, which was what initially drew my attention to the problem. This question is a bit complicated because I'm under Linux (Xubuntu).

  I updated the drivers etc from windows when I bought the laptop. Never had any problems until now and have been running linux for centuries. Also, I have mainly the laptop the power supply turned off, but do not remove the battery (is that really a problem these days?)

  I obviously need to replace the adapter, but is - it is likely (and how I can check) that the battery was borked until?

  see you soon
  Chris

  First, please check if the other are lit.
  If the AC led and power led are on the adapter sector is ok and it provides the power to the laptop.

  > The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile
  If the battery LED is yellow, this means that the battery is not fully charged and if the Green led changes then recharging is caught and the battery has been recharged.

  So I really don t see any problems with the charge process.

  Maybe the battery is old and so you cannot use it for an extended in such a case only the replacement of the battery could help.

• Satellite L30 (PSL33E) - sometimes freezes

  Hello

  I'm in big trouble with Windows XP pro SP3 & my Satellite l30 (psl33e).

  I removed vista to install Windows XP with an original CD of XP SP3. So I formatted hard drive and begin the typical installation. Problems start when installing: the computer crashes sometimes, something like 10-20 min. Finally install completes, but computer is still really slow.

  I have installed all the drivers from the Toshiba site, restart the computer between each installation. The restart time is like 10 min and sometimes driver install hangs also. After 3 hours, I was able to connect to the internet, so I've spent on the Windows Update site; Here, I've installed all the updates, but I still had the same problem, sometimes computer freezes for 10 to 30 minutes. When the computer crashes, you will see the hard drive light.

  When I start Windows boot time is long enough for a new installation, something like 5 min. The sound icon appears 15 minutes after office expenses with the LAN & wan icons minimum 30 min after. Network works well as soon the configfree icon appear (and therefore of office). I can't run HWsetup, but PC diagnostic tools don't report made by any problem with the hardware.

  I tried to check the drivers with a pilot online checking tool (ma - config.com), they were all aware, idon't have a problem in the hardware Manager. Windows is up to date.

  I checked memory with memtest, still no problem. I have updated BIOS, no change. My hard drive has been freshly fully formatted, so I don't think that's the problem. I even tried to reinstall Windows, still the same problem during installation and after. the original CD, I used to install Windows is not clean, no scratches and works perfectly on my other computers.

  I did not have this problem with Vista, but I really do not want to use, 1 GB of memory is too low. Everything is good, drivers, Windows, programs, hardware, but computer still hangs when it wants to.

  So I absolutely do not know what to do, I'm looking on google for 2 days without response. I think it's a cause of problem of Windows questions begin during installation.

  I would really apreciate help someone. Thanks in advance & sorry for my bad English,

  Pedro

  Hey Buddy,

  > I think it's a cause of problem of Windows questions begin during installation.
  Why do you think that? In my opinion, if this problem starts when installing has nothing to do with Windows because it s not completely installed then why Windows should ask this question?

  I think it s a bad hardware work if you already checked the memory with Memtest so I think that the RAM should be ok.

  From my own experience, I recommend to check the HARD drive for bad sectors using Drive Fitness Test or another HARD drive diagnostic tool.
  I had a similar problem a few years back that the boot system has been very slow and the reason was a bad sector. So I checked the disk with Drive Fitness Test that shows the bad sector. Now, I have replaced the HARD drive, installed Windows again and everything worked again properly! :)
