  Hello oleg

  This HARD drive is listed as compatible for this model of laptop, and it should work properly.
  One thing I don't understand. In the topic, you wrote that A60 cannot detect HARD drive but if I understand you right, you have access and you can format the HARD drive and also to start the installation of Windows XP Home edition.

  Can you please be so kind and explain exactly what is wrong with the HARD drive.
  HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS?

• Satellite L300D does not start on battery, adapter needs to start

  Hello!
  I have my Satellite L300D since April last year, and suddenly my laptop does not start when the network adapter is not connected. Says battery 100% (full charge), when I am connected and started the system.

  (My warranty until April, so should I send in for service?)

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Hello!

  In your case I go for a local ASP (authorized service provider) and allow to check your laptop computer of these technicians.
  I think that it s a hardware problem, maybe the battery is defective and if you can just start the laptop with AC/DC adapter.

  Good bye

• Satellite P10 304 BIOS does not detect HARD and CDROM drive

  My HDD p10-304 has recently failed.
  I bought a new 60 GB western digital 2.5 drive "and installed today.

  At startup, the BIOS does not detect the drive, but also, it does not detect the CD-ROM drive.
  This makes me think that maybe it's not the player after all, maybe the onboard IDE / motherboard.

  I'm kinda stuck, so it's a new drive should work fine, and I have no way to test the motherboard.

  The only difference is that the insulation on the original drive sleeve should be reduced by half.
  The bit important (low, where the circuits would otherwise affect metal) is always there, it is the
  Few albums I had to remove but that should be no problem.

  Someone at - it suggestions?

  Thank you, Stu.

  Hello

  What happens if the HARD drive is not connected to the motherboard? The BIOS recognize the CD/DVD drive correctly?

  You bought the HARD drive compatible? To my knowledge the Mobile supports a HARD drive with interface IDE (ATA-5) increased.

  But as you said possibly the motherboard failures and he would be advised to contact the technician during a particular test

• Satellite L300D will not recognize USB drive, except if the WIFI is disabled

  I have a venerable L300D Satellite under Vista SP2. I also have a Fujitsu 40 GB SATA HDD of my old laptop in a USB2.0 caddy, with double USB plugs to require more current.

  I can sign in successfully caddy USB to my laptop Windows 7 via a simple USB port on a USB 2.0 so I know it works.

  On the Satellite L300D, it implements the Generic USB drive in Device Manager, but does not record the 2 disk partitions in the storage of files in Windows Explorer. In fact when you try and expand the COMPUTER in the Explorer it times out.

  I noticed that the WLAN (Realtek TL8187B) is on the same USB 2.0 controller, so I disabled it. It turned off my wireless, but immediately the Windows Explorer was shot in life and I could access partitions (D:, and G :) may even run the check disk (no failures) and Defrag. As soon as I turn ON the WLAN driver disc fails to register.

  I've updated the Realtek drivers on the Toshiba web site but I want a solution that allows me to use the disc AND the WIFI network at the same time.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Hello Colin

  Have you started using your laptop with the original version of Vista that you got with your laptop?

  I use Toshiba laptops for a long time now but I've never noticed this issue although I use external hard drives and USB keys quite often.
  Since when did you notice this kind of behavior? To be honest, I can't imagine that this problem persists since the day where we as original recovery image is tested and something like that should not happen. Maybe some updates may be responsible for this.

  Trying to remove driver WLAN, reinstall the chipset driver and reinstall WLAN driver. After doing this test he has once again please and send feedback.

• Satellite L300D will not start

  Hello

  I have a satellite L300D 11v. Power I have three lights green, power, suite and battery, DVD looking for some time nothing happens.

  Tried many things.
  Interchangeability and remove the ram with restarts
  Removing and replacing HD
  Remove the battery, hold the power button for a minute then power application and try to turn on,.
  As above with the battery.
  None of the above has worked, I suspect either of the BIOS chip lost his memory or it is fried.
  I will try to reinstall the BIOS memory, but without the work of the OS I'm not sure how do.
  And I'm not sure that the update of the BIOS I downloaded from Toshiba is correct because of the manual I downloaded was the L350, and yes I have enter the correct details to try three times. Neither seem to be able to know which is the BIOS. I would be grateful if someone could suggest what's wrong with the laptop or the update of the BIOS with the laptop in its current state. And if anyone knows what variant of the BIOS, is that I would also be grateful for this information.

  P.S. I noticed that the same problem was raised on August 12, 2012 with no resolution found.

  On this virtual path t is not easy to offer accurate diagnosis and to say with certainty what the problem is here, but somehow, I think that your BIOS chip is damaged. BIOS update will not help you with that.
  When you start your laptop is stays on or turns off after a certain period of time?

• Satellite L300D - does not load after the BIOS update

  I had to update my bios & it seems that that wrong has been downloaded about 3% by installing the laptop just die and not to revert to.

  There is no lights & there is no noise from the laptop at all.

  Can any ideas on how I fix?

  The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L300D

  Hello

  Well, if the BIOS update crashed you can do anything because the ROM module needs to be reflashed. This is possible only with special tools and only an authorized service provider has such tools.

  Then please contact the nearest service Toshiba and ask for help :)

  Hello

  Because the laptop uses the ATI graphics card, you will need to install the driver of ATI graphics card. I think that you need the driver for the ATI Radeon X 1200 control some pages like omegadrivers.net and similar
  The chipset driver is an ATI due to AMD CPU driver.

  Audio driver seems to be Realtek.
  I recommend that you visit the page of Realtek and download the driver of the page.

• Satellite L300D does not illuminate

  I have a Satellite L300D that won't turn on. The power light comes on, the fan comes on, but no screen activity or hard disk. I'm currently running scans on hard drive while its in a shopping cart, but do not think that his anyway. Any ideas? Thank you

  Hello

  I think that you can't do anything else as to test the RAM only.
  I think that the other parts of the laptop can be checked by a technician for laptop.

  I recommend that you check this;
  Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery. Then leave the laptop disconnected for a long period (2-3 hours). Reconnect all the parts, then try to turn on the unit.
  If this doesn't help, check the RAM. Remove a module and try to turn on the device using that one module.
  Then repeat this using a different RAM.

  If you're not going to succeed, then you should get in contact with a technician for laptop.

• Satellite S955 starts not to POST and black screen

  Hello

  I have a problem with my s955 (14 months). He is not able to start more. When turned on, I hear only the cooling fan spins up and down and nothing more. The last time, it took almost half an hour to work around this failure. When turned on it shows no problem at all. When you stop it is better to pray. It now seems to be missing. After an hour, I see no sign of life except cooling fan activity.

  I went through all the stuff mentioned in another forum of Toshiba as turned off, remove the battery, keep and maintain the power button for at least 60 seconds. I even replaced the RTC internal Li - ion, but without success. Because it is not covered by warranty more I opened it. No sign of didn't burn except a suspicious oxidation of some contacts.

  I contacted Toshiba Italy (even if it is a U.S. model.) and I expect a possible answer next week. I ran out of the possible solution except replacement of mobo. Is there anyone around who has the same problem? Could you please give me a help?
  Thank you and best regards

  Pyder

  Hi, not Toshiba Italy news but I found a Toshiba authorized service workshop that may solve this problem. It seems that, beyond other speculations, the problem may be issued by the fuse of power mainboard (read this answer interesting of maxtek73 [http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Batteries-and-Power/My-Toshiba-Satellite-Laptop-Will-Not-Turn-On/m-p/584008#M11147] at the end of the post). It seems reasonable. In fact, keyboard, dvd player, charge battery, hd, and cooling fan are powered by the motherboard. It seems that there is not enough current to pass initial tests before POST. This could explain why the cooling fan trying to run at maximum speed, but he can't. I had to remind that to turn on, no equipment TI push fans at max speed and then slow down to normal speed before entering the POST process. I'll have a conversation with the technician of the workshop and I'll keep you in the loop.
  Best regards

  Hello

  Maybe you could check if a WLan driver would help you to solve this annoying problem.
  I read a lot of discussion on Wlan issues and especially update driver helped.

  Please take a look here:

  Here's the latest WLan drivers for Toshiba units.

  Please consider an update of the BIOS too often older BIOS may cause problems of compatibility with WLan and should be updated too!

• Satellite 1800-814-replacement ODD and HDD

  Hi all.

  I have a Toshiba satellite 1800-814, which has a dvd - rom SD-C2502 reader. This disc runs out of CD playback more every day. The question is: can I replace it for a clone dvd or dvd/rw cheap or should I stay with toshiba parts?

  And a second question. This laptop comes with a disc HITACHI DK23CA-20. What would be the largest size of HARD drive, that I couldn't go?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  If you can get it on eBay the same drive, it will work with your laptop. Alternative check the user manual. You will find a list of compatible spare disks and don t forget that not all drives are compatible with all laptops. But the drives listed in the user manual are compatible.

  AFAIK for notebooks with IDE interface there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits. This means that you can use hard drives 120 GB.
  But in the worst case, you can use a 40/60 GB model.
