• Satellite L300-13s: issue of WiFi Draft N

  Hello

  I would like to know why this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-N-Wir...0490986&sr=1-7 seems to be more expensive than everywhere http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-F5D80...0491017&sr=1-6

  But I thought that N1 was better? or is this model N express a new card is better than the N1?

  I want to buy an 300mbps express card so I can connect to my neighbors wireless network and do not want to spend a lot, that's why I like these two.
  Yhey looks cheap but at the moment I have a toshiba L300 13s with wifi 54 Mbps wireless networks are appearing and disappearing all the time so I want 300mbps wifi so I can have a broader scope and have more wireless networks in the choice.

  It is express card that I need for my laptop?

  Hello

  First of all, are you sure that your laptop offers a 802.11Draft to 100%-support N?

  The problem is that the Draft N standard needs 3-wire Wlan antenna and all laptops that are equipped with 802.11 A, B or G standard supports 2 antenna son which is not designed for the use of the Draft N.
  I think you'll need to stay with your wireless network card.

  The other option might be the use of external USB WLAN which doesn t need to be connected to the internal antenna.

• Satellite L300. Observation on the issues cover the recovery of Vista on a new HARD drive

  Hi all

  I need to reinstall Vista (on a Toshiba Satellite L300) runs the "recovery disc" created by Toshiba disc creator before recovery and using a disc of "nine" (Toshiba MK2035GSS, 200 GB).

  Issues related to the:

  (1) I have to partition and format the new drive before starting with recovery disks / DVD (s).
  or which will be done through the recovery process?

  (2) what is the reason for which the current disc is divided into two size equal C: and D: partitions, while
  D: partition seems to be reservered for the system, but only 5 GB are used?

  (3) what is the purpose of the partition 3. ("inactive") with about 1.5 GB of space?

  Thanks in advance for your support and help!

  > 1) I have to partition and format the new drive before starting with recovery disks / DVD (s).

  No, because the HARD disk should be formatted during the recovery process.

  (> 2) what is the reason for which the current disc is divided into two size equal partitions C: and D:, while
  D: partition seems to be reservered for the system, but only 5 GB are used?
  On the D partition, you can find the files and folder from HARD drive recovery. HARD disk recovery allows you to recover the laptop HARD drive and in this case, you don't need the recovery disc

  (> 3) what is the purpose of the partition 3. ("inactive") with about 1.5 GB of space?
  It is a Vista partition and is necessary for the backup files. Vista is able to repair the operating system if something bad is going to do this the necessary files that are stored on this partition.

• Details on motherboards for Satellite L300 necessary

  Motherboard necessary because video is not good model No. PSLB0A - 08: 022.

  Due to the price I'm looking for second hand machines with screens broken as a donor. If they could do that maybe they could exchange their broken screens. Sellers are not tech savvy enough to find a part number on the motherboard.

  There are so many different models of the L300 series. The specifications are hard to find on these discontinued models. I downloaded 2 sheets of the Toshiba site and when I opened the PDF file there is no information.

  Currently, I have a possible candidate PSLB0A-08E022, but I'm not sure. I don't know if they have common motherboard, isn't it? I just can't come up with the information I want.

  Anyone know the differences between motherboards for the different models?
  The guidelines that I can use to get a motherboard very correct to go with the rest of the material (remembering I'm going only for the number of model to go in and not the part number real motherboard).

  Hello

  Satellite L300/H02 model belongs to the series of PSLB0A.
  The motherboards that are built in the L300 model that are part of the PSLB0A (released in Australia) or PSLB0E (released in Europe) must be compatible with your device Satellite L300/H02!

• Need drivers for motherboard for Satellite L300-1 has 3 (PSLB8E)

  I searched on the site of toshiba - Europe.com, but I can't find the drivers for my motherboard.
  I want to install windows xp on my laptop which came with Windows Vista... I need the driver for the motherboard?

  What other drivers do I need?
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Drivers XP for Satellite L300 PSLB8E are placed on the European driver Toshiba page.
  To be honest I don t understand what you mean by the motherboard driver.
  The driver of the motherboard is unclear for me but Toshiba driver page contains all the necessary drivers!

  If you want to reinstall the XO you need to include the SATA driver first.
  Intel Storage Manager contains such driver!

  By the way;

• Satellite L300 - upgrade from Vista Home Basic to Home Premium issues

  Hi all

  I recently got a Satellite L300 with a basic family OEM of Vista Edition version.
  I have a copy of Windows Vista: drive home edition Premium (upgrade) and decided to use it on the laptop.

  I put the disc in and followed the steps but the upgrade option is removed... It is if I use the product key provided with the disc or not.
  The laptop comes with Service Pack 1 is already installed and the drive I have is released in stores before Service Pack 1.

  My main question is really how can I get my drive to upgrade my version of Vista. I tried the Google search, this Web site, Microsoft Web site and I get the same answer.

  Basically, go into options and upgrade Express. They're all for me to buy from Microsoft that would be kinda useless as I already have a copy.
  I read something to a site that said my drive would have to have service pack disk and I've seen a site with some sort of disk editing program for Vista but I am not too keen to use it and the 'how' was not very easy to understand.

  Also, I am not too keen on appellant Toshiba or Microsoft on surcharge numbers to get something, I already bought and paid for and should be as simple as a few steps.

  Anyway hope someone can help as I really want to upgrade.

  Hello

  I understand and it is really annoying, but what to do now? the fact is that Toshiba has offered this book with some version of Vista. This version should be updated to better Microsoft security and the most recent available. Because of this Toshiba supply with the last option of SP1.

  So now, you try to install proposed update it there long and probably offered before SP1 was on the market. I understand your point of view but, in my opinion, has nothing to do with Toshiba now, and you should try to find the solution with Microsoft. For example you can also get info from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930733

  Clean Vista Home Premium can be installed without any problem. All the drivers, tools, and utilities are downloadable on Toshiba support & download page.

• Satellite C650 - HDD or motherboard issue

  Hello

  My 2 year old laptop had drive detection HARD and errors of HARD drive last month.

  Thinking it was the HARD drive (as indicated by the computer and the amount of HARD drive failures in online forums), so last week I replaced the HARD drive.

  It has taken ages and made more than 100 windows updates. Anyway to cut a long story short, the same mistakes are happening again, but now total boot failure and can not detect the hard drive? the two old and work of new HARD drive on another computer via a usb enclosure.

  Sometimes I get, welcome on windows recovery another moment she just doesent boot, then other times it starts but displays "windows has detected a HARD disk problem '...

  I am now the disk controller HARD of thinking on the motherboard? common problem?

  Are there additional controls to confirm a fault, as some time it loads up. ?

  Any advice would be appreciated gratefully.

  Regards, Stephen

  Hi Stephen

  On this virtual path, we can only speculate what may be the problem, but if there is problem detecting HARD drive in the BIOS it may be serous issue with detection of HARD drive on the first level and it may be the motherboard issue.

  What kind of errors you see in Windows?

  In addition, you use original recovery image that you got with your laptop?

• Satellite L300-1BV and fatal issues with WXP

  Hi guys -.

  Very well. My Toshiba Satellite L300-1bv, loaded with a copy of Windows XP SP3 home edition, started having glitches and slowing down questions that grew progressively until it would completely freeze after a random interval of time. Try to boot now returns a missing hal.dll error.

  I'm almost certain, given the characteristics of this that the hard drive is a failure, mainly because he began to thrash continually without reason a few months in him. On the other hand, it could be a mistake of memory through Google diagnostics.

  I ve managed to install a copy of Windows XP Home SP1 edition on a new partition (the one broken leaving intact), but I don't know how long it will continue to operate in light of a possible hardware failure so I don't want to commit.

  Any help would be massively appreciated.

  Hello

  What assistance do you have exactly?

  As you say the problem could be related to a hardware (RAM, HARD disk problem) or software (missing hal.dll, corruption of the operating system) problem

  If new OS installation (with all patches, service pack) no did not help, then a problem of material is possible in this case, replace defective parts
  No one can say what part could be corrupted it s is necessary to test means that the RAM or HARD drive needs to be replaced and then you could test how it works

• Satellite L300-1AS - load and operate on battery

  I have a Satellite L300-1AS, running Vista. The computer began recently to show it is "connected, charge", but does not actually charge. Start the computer normally to aid decision-making of current, however if disconnected from the electrical network and the laptop died (no charge in the battery).

  I thought that he could have the power adapter, but I also have an older toshiba which has the same exact power adapter, I tried it and it works on both machines (and two adapters to charge the old laptop)

  Then I thought that maybe it's the battery and bought a new battery (the computer is under warranty, but I needed it fast). The new battery will not charge, but shows 6% charge.

  Then, I thought it might be corruption under Vista, so have returned the computer to its factory settings, by reinstalling the software. It has not yet solved the problem.

  I also tried a few other ideas I found in Google.

  I feel that this problem is perhaps something to do with THE system BIOS, I have tried to re - install, but it won't let me, and I can't find a way to return to a previous version.

  Anyone know where I can find an older version of BIOS for my machine and how to change it to an earlier version? It is currently the latest version V1.90 from the Toshiba site.

  Hello

  This really strange boyfriend s but to me it sounds like a hardware problem... I think it might be the motherboard issue. Maybe the card mother doesn t charge the battery properly.

  In my opinion the best way would be if a cell phone technician would check your laptop. They can test the motherboard and all other parts.
  I doubt that s a BIOS because you problem n t have the problem for the first time.

  On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest ASP:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported downloads & => find an authorized service provider

  Good luck! :)

• Satellite L300 will not charge the battery

  I have a new battery and I tried my old battery and another charger but my Satellite L300 load will always be not.
  If I unplug it then plug the charger back in it appear to be responsible for about 20 seconds.

  Can someone help pleas

  Hello

  If you have tried different batteries and new AC adapter and the battery still wouldn't load, then I would say; This s hardware problem of the motherboard.
  I think that there is no much do the defective part needs to be replaced

  I think that the ASP must verify the material, you know
  It of the best way to get the issue resolved.

• Satellite L300 - boring loading problems

  Hello world.

  I've got my Satellite L300 nice for about 23 months now, and I absolutely love it.
  There is just one problem: my PC is not loading properly. There are always about a 1/50
  lucky, I have to play with the inputs and output for all 5-10 minutes each
  I plug it in time. I had this problem before (about two months ago) where I sent it
  Back to the store and they fixed. I was able to pick up there is still almost a month
  and everything worked properly again.

  It's really, really frustrating and I hope there is a solution simple sorta.
  Anyone who is familiar with this problem and to know what exactly is the problem?

  Thank you in advance.

  This kind of technical problems, there is no simple solution.
  If you have a serious issue with load problem, it is probably related to electronic power supply and it must be checked by authorized personnel only.

  Tell me but honestly: what can you fix these problems?

• Satellite L300 - plugged, but not charging

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite L300 under Win 7 32 bit
  It does not load, so when the AC is removed it will stop.

  I tried the power cycle - unplug everything, hold the power button for 30 seconds.
  The contacts are clean on the s battery connections and I uninstalled via the control panel and scanned as new hardware.

  I checked all of the web, but nothing helped, please could you help?
  Don t want to buy a new battery for no reason

  Thanks Pindy92

  > Don t want to buy a new battery for no reason

  Well, in this case, you should visit one of the points of service and need to check the laptop with a new battery.
  If it s battery not deliver, then I guess that the problem is related to problems of motherboard, so that would be the worst case

  By the way: you are using the latest version of the BIOS on this laptop? Make sure that the latest version of the BIOS is installed. But if the BIOS is up to date, then a new battery should be tested.

• Satellite L300 - clean install Win 7 SP1 64 bit

  I just did a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit, replacing the normal 32-bit Vista that comes with the laptop.

  The facility has been good, but I have a few questions about the following:

  I adjusted the automatic run settings to ask every time for all selections. The problem is that when the game DVD in WMP or VLC disk reads but is noisy. It is very good for the s CD without excessive noise. The acoustic silencer on the download site is for 32-bit, but can be used in this laptop. In the original Vista there is no noise at all, so I wonder if there is other parameters that can sort this point, otherwise I'll have to keep changing things manually with the acoustic silencer.

  I noticed a very low noise coming from laptop (like a lighter version of a business when you're boarding Jet it). I ran a video memory Stress Test CE and he showed a few errors. If I reduce the brightness of the screen there is less noise so I wonder if it's something to do with the Panel of inverter of screen I'm sure that's not the HARD drive or the cooling fan, but it could be something on the motherboard.

  On the backup plan Acronis will slow down my system or are Win 7 OK backup options?

  Thanks a lot for all the possible solutions to these problems.

  A long time ago I've installed Win7 32 bit on friends Satellite L300. It worked perfectly. Much better than original Vista.
  > I still don't know what is the best test for the screen.
  I put t understand what kind of test do you mean. I hope that you have installed the right display driver and LCD works perfectly with a native resolution.

  Win7 recovery with Acronis image creation is, generally, the right decision. With this disc, you can install Win7 again and again very rapidly and you should not install every single driver separately.

  If you want to keep this laptop any longer I think it is worth to buy it. One last thing: you will buy it once and you can use it in the future too if you decide to buy the new laptop or PC.
