Satellite M30-106: the search for upgrading HDD and DVD recorder

Hello

I was looking for some information about the compatibility of this laptop with new hard disks, but could not find. The reader, I want to buy is PMR Hitachi 5K 160 160 GB.

Second in line for the upgrade is burner DVD-R x 2 which is painfully slow. There is a kind of game of simple checks to do before buy you to avoid buying the incompatible equipment? I know that there should be a list of compatible readers in the manual of my laptop, but there is not, and I believe that records of such a list would be a minor if no improvement at all.

Thanks in advance for any help provided.

You want to use the 160 GB HARD drive?
I m not 100% sure but, in my opinion, the BIOS will not recognize this size of HARD drive.
I found this similar thread on the 160 GB HARD drive:

Michael of the user has provided a nice info:
http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19153&MessageID=70008
The M30 accept the 80 GB and possibly a 100 GB HARD drive

I discovered that the Toshiba SD-R6112, TEAC G8CC00013210, Matsu * a G8CC00019210 are compatible with your laptop.
Maybe you could googel for simple numbers and you will find more information

  • The search for exact strings (and the right formula)

    I am using FIND instruction to search multiple strings in a larger formula. The original formula that I do stand out is the following:

    = IF (ISNUMBER (FIND ('INC', A1)),' ', 'Y')

    Of course, this gives a Y if he finds some text in "". "" However, I have several channels for which I would check, and they need to be exact. That is to say when I search Inc. and Inc., I don't want Inc. to be counted. So, I tried the following formulas.

    = IF (ISNUMBER (FIND (OR("INC",inc"), A1)),' ', 'Y')

    = IF (SUM (COUNTIF (A1, "* INC. *","{* Inc. *}")),' ',' Y')

    The second works better, but it also counts Inc. as a football game. Any suggestions?

  • Satellite A50-110: the search for compatible memory modules

    Im looking for memory, I can use on my Satellite A50-100.
    Is it possible to expand my internal memory with a standard 1 GB-Dimm DDR Pc2700?

    Hello

    I think you mean the common memory modules and memory no internal.
    The A50-100 doesn't support internal memory.
    This laptop supports locations memory simple towing and both are expandable.

    So now for the decision-making modules support:
    You can use the PC2700 DDR - RAM and these are compatible:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

    Hope I could explain everything

  • Satellite L50 - B - the search for old BIOS

    I recently put to update the BIOS in my laptop L50 - B - 17 c version 1.70 and it turns out the language of the specific characters are not correctly mapped in the keyboard (this is OS independent), so I would go back to the previous version of BIOS, but there is no other version of the download page :(

    Do you know if I can find somewhere another Alumni BIOS, or maybe that you have backed up BIOS before 1.70?

    Thanks in advance.

    The BIOS backup is a good decision in case something would be wrong with the laptop.
    However, even if there is nothing wrong with the laptop, the BIOS update can do if it s released by Toshiba.

    However, you asked for the older version of BIOS, unfortunately, I guess that in one such case that only Toshiba authorised service provider could help you get this BIOS because Toshiba EU provides only the latest version of BIOS on the driver page.

    In any case, I guess you want to downgrade the BIOS in order to solve the problem of the keyboard. Right?
    I read your other thread on the problem of Polish characters. In my opinion its is not really clear if its BIOS really make since you have used another system. Also if external keyboard works properly, the problem would not be bound to the BIOS.

    However, this topic needs to be discussed in your other thread.

  • Success story on the installation of hard drive of 160 GB to a Satellite M30 106

    Hello

    I upgraded my Satellite M30-106 with a 160 GB HDD and it works brilliantly. The hard drive I bought is disc Hitachi 5 K 160 PMR - my only worry was bios (someone suggested he can not see) but it went smooth. I have no worry about power because the new takes less energy (it runs faster however). I have not noticed any hitch or any strange behaviour and I admit to more than a month now and it has been widely used.

    Best regards
    Swarvek

    PS. Sorry to start a new thread, but man, it has been locked.
    PS2. I also brought up my memory some time ago to 1 GB - kingston value ram has been around - this laptop doesn't seem to be too fussy about memory.

    Man, it's good, because one of my friends was about to publish a thread about upgrading its M30 because he didn t know if a disk over big then 100 Gig will go into his machine.

    Well, I must say thank you for your experience posted here. :)

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite M30 106

    Hi people

    Could with help please?

    Just got an old Toshiba Satellite M30-106, a few weeks ago and [to be fair] it works OK with xp on it. I bought another 2 gig DDR which brings speed wise difference, but I can move the processor to the Intel® Pentium® M processor 725 1.60 GHz FSB: 400 MHz, 2: 2 MB level cache that s in there earlier?

    Can she take a CPU more high if so what s the highest? Would be very graciously tips please.

    Thanks in advance...

    At first, I must say that I agree with you that this laptop will work with Windows XP Home edition. At least this laptop model is designed for Windows XP Home edition. ;)

    I found some info on the processors on Satellite M30:
    + The Satellite M30 computer is equipped with a processor Intel Banias who +.
    + integrates mathematical co-processor, memory 64 KB of L1 cache and a 1 MB L2 cache.
    + memory. The processor works with one of the following speeds: +.
    + Processor Intel Banias 1.40 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.
    + Processor Intel Banias 1.50 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.
    + Processor Intel Banias 1.60 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.
    + Processor Intel Banias 1.70 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.

    Then maybe you can use the fastest processor 1.70 GHz. I don't think you'll see the difference.
    Best thing you can do is upgrade RAM to max and optimize Windows XP Home pre-installed, and you will be happy with this good old classic.

    Satellite M30 is old enough laptop model and I don't think that to do this, you can order a Toshiba recovery media.
    What you can try is to contact the nearest authorized maintainer and ask for help.

  • Satellite M30-106: USB Ports not working not

    Hello.

    I have a problem with my Satellite M30-106. One day, the system froze (Windows XP with SP2) during the passage of the machine off. I was forced to keep the button "power" for a while in order to close the system. However, since all 3 USB ports do not work.

    The system does not recognize the "" them. I can't see in Device Manager. I tried to reinstall the system, but it did not help.

    Can someone help me, pelase =)

    Hello

    It looks like a hardware problem. At whatever it is connected to the USB ports at the time? Could you check the USB ports visually and see if they are damaged or wobbly. It is a bit of a long shot, but you may have a short circuit decision and which could disable the USB.
    If the motherboard is damaged then outside fixing/replace your only option would be a PCMCIA USB card, they are not expensive.

    Hello

    If you try to connect to your router, you will ask for a password or what exactly is going on?

    Maybe you should try to update your laptop WLAN driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online downloads support & -online Download Driver

    Also make sure you use the same WiFi standard that you have configured on the router, for example 802.11 g.

    What operating system do you use? Have you installed all service packs and patches?

    Note: Before you perform an upgrade in-place, you must be prepared for the worst scenarios that led to your existing data on your computer being deleted. These data include data personal, settings, information about the hardware and software drivers. In case of a worst case scenario, you may have to reinstall all the programs. Make sure that you back up personal data to disks or other external storage devices before performing an upgrade on the spot.

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    Important: System Restore will return all system files not as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system. If it was your intention with this tool to recover a deleted file to non-system, try using a file instead of system restore recovery program.

    the glaring omission of global search for markers - or exclusion of metadata to the project search function marker - is a big handicap for any project of long form doc.

    Is there a work around or maybe a plan to remedy this bizarre situation in an upgrade?

  • Satellite A200-1 g (PSAECE) Win XP. Need drivers for SATA HDD and GeForce 7300

    Hi all.
    I would install XP instead of Vista on my note. As far as I know, XP has no builtin for SATA driver. I found no drivers for GeForce 7300 on the toshiba Web site. So I need drivers for SATA HDD and GeForce 7300. Where can I find them?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    Why must you SATA XP drivers? You are not able to install XP because the HARD drive is not visible?

    With regard to the nVidia drivers:
    It seems that the A200 notebooks were shipped with a different hardware configuration.
    Some laptops come with the Intel GPU and some with nVidia graphics card.
    The Intel GPU driver is available on the Toshiba page.

    Graphic driver nVidia can be downloaded from the site Web of Toshiba Canada or 3rd sites like www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com
