  • Need good drivers for Satellite M30 304

    I have a Satellite M30-304. I rebooted the laptop and formatted everything, including pilots. Unfortunately I have lost my CD of restoration as well. So, I tried to download it online on the official website but I downloaded the wrong drivers making my laptop more low and I can't even use my special functions of the keyboard and my screen become darker.

    Does anyone know how to download the right drivers and whence?

  • HDD upgrade for Satellite M30 304

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M30-304. It has a 40 GB hard drive and I would like to upgrade to 120 or 160 GB.

    Could if it you please let me know the specification of compatible drive for M30 - 304?
    Can what max HDD M30-304 capacity have? Detailed specifications would be useful.

    Thank you.

    I doubt you could use a 160 GB HARD drive.
    I recommend you to check a 120 GB IDE 2.5 "HDD.

    The point is that the HARD disk controller supports the 28-bit LBA and bigger hard drives as 120 GB will not be recognized by the BIOS.

    So in my opinion the 120 GB is the largest HARD drive that can be used.

  • Satellite M30-841 - large hard drive not recognized

    HY guys,.

    First of all, I want to say hello, because this is my first post in this forum. Merry Christmas as well!

    I am writing because I bought a 160 GB 2hard disk to replace my old 60 GB. When I troed to install it, I saw that it recognizes just 128 GB which, according to my research, is due to the LBA 48 bit not supported on my laptop (Satellite M30-841).

    I tried to everythingmentioned:
    -J' have flash Bios o update the 1.70 (last available driver toshiba Web site)
    -J' changed the downloaded XP SP3 and I changed the registry to install a key DWORD EnableBigLba.

    However, she still recognizes only 128 GB. I'm losing hope to install the new hard drive. Anyone of you has a suggestion that I should try?

    I realized that I should update the driver of my motherboard, but I don't know where they are, if there is (I don't even know the name of it, despite the use of everest - which shows DMI.

    Am I missing something?

    Thank you very much

    Icemaster

    Look, man.
    The HARD disk controller seems to support the 28-bit LBA.
    The disk controllers HARD supporting the 28-bit LBA address max 128 GB HDD.
    Controllers HDD support 48-bit LBA address bigger hard drives.
    But this is a physical limitation and you will not resolve this update anything.

  • Sporadic satellite M30-304 USB failure mouse

    Have the laptop above under XP. After that 2 years running a mouse USB laser without probs, suddenly the pointer stops for a few seconds, then takes over again, stops, starts etc. Very maddening. There is an error message saying every so often the device connected to the USB port is not installed correctly.

    I uninstall the software for the mouse and the re - install, run all my anti-virus software and Tracker, still the same problem. the trackpad still works fine, so I decide it takes the mouse and buy a new one and install it. It worked fine for a few weeks now, so today the same problem!

    Did he have the same problem or know a solution?

    Hello

    I don't use a Satellite M30 but a Satellite M40.
    I use it for a year and I have no problem with my mouse.
    I can't believe that the laptop has a malfunction, because as you say in your announcement of new mouse worked initially.
    I have no idea why your mouse pointer stops. Maybe the mouse driver causes a strange failure.
    You can also try to remove the shape of USB ports, Device Manager.
    After restarting again the operating system should recognize the USB ports again with a standard configuration.
    Then, you can try to reconnect the mouse.

    You can also try to use the mouse without having to install the drivers for mouse manufacturing delivered. Check it out

  • Satellite M30-604: USB Port can not find the driver

    Hello

    I keep having the same problem on my Satellite M30 604 when connecting to a USB device.
    It does not really matter with this kind of device, the problem still.

    Whenever I have insert the USB plug into one of the slots, my home XP keeps popping up the wizzard software.
    Even with devices without drivers such as USB keys, it keeps bothering me and finally tells me that it cannot find the right driver.

    If I try to install a printer, it installs the software found, but finally stops the operation because it can't find the driver (?). I don't know in what direction I should look at to solve this.

    So if anyone can help me on this, I would be very grateful!
    Edwin

    Hello, Edwin

    It's very strange because it is not necessary to install a USB driver and standard Microsoft USB driver should work well. I put t know if this can help, but please check this page

    This fix is also part of the factory settings (recovery image on the delivered CD). By the way: your device is about three years old and it will be interesting to know since when you have this problem. Just for example: I have more Satellite 1900 with USB 1.0 and use USB keys and drive external HARD without any problem.

  • Satellite M30-304 - strange questions after BIOS update

    Hi all

    I updated my BIOS according to the good driver for Satellite M30. However, since this operation took the endless problems with screen and wireless card. Also the screen used to display flash BIOS only now them a Centrino, Centrino logo sometimes sometimes Mr. Pentium, I don't know that the version of BIOS is incorrect for my laptop. If I try to re - install the upgrade, it is said version already installed 1.7, so will not continue.

    1. is there a way to force the re - install the same version?
    2. someone can the upgrade me of the correct BIOS Setup for the model n ° PSM30E-0QKJ1-5U, I installed the version was 20070807154017

    The history is quite interesting. AFAIK Centrino logo is there if the Centrino platform is in use.

    The Centrino platform consists of:
    an Intel Pentium M processor
    a chipset Intel 855 of the series
    an Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 or later 2200 (IEEE 802 11 b) mini-PCI wireless adapter

    If a component is removed (Intel PRO/Wireless mini-PCI wireless adapter) the Centrino logo will disappear. I don't really know why logo is from time to time, but you did the right BIOS update. There is no other for your laptop model.

    Can you please tell me what is the problem with your wireless network adapter? You can use just sporadically or what?

  • Satellite A100 CD/DVD drive is not listed in the BIOS or Device Manager

    1. the original drive does not work. After inserting a disc shines the light of the drive and it runs - but nothing else.
    A little investigation shows no optical drive listed in the BIOS or Device Manager (naturally).

    2. perhaps I would reinsert the disc, but I can't find any instructions on internet about this disc removal/replacement.
    Or in the operating manual.

    Can someone direct me to these instructions?

    Thank you very much

    S manual is not the same thing as maintenance manuals. Please note that this is not the same and the exact description on laptop procedure disassembly is only authorized service.

    Anyway, as far as I know the optical disk drive is fixed with a screw and it can be removed from the underside. The screw is placed near the cover of exact memory on the optical drive. Not on side cooling event, but on the other side.

    Be careful because everything you do is at your own risk.

    Hello

    I know not all SD card sizes are supported.
    I m does not quote sure what max SD card format can be used in the slot of the M30, but probably 2 GB of SD card is not compatible.

    However, you said that you want to format the SD card, but have you tried to use the format utility Toshiba SD memory card?

    Remove the battery for a short period and try to restart the device. If the battery is empty, plug it into the power socket and charge the battery. In my opinion, you must charge the battery 12 to 24 hours.
