Satellite M30: colored lines running vertically on the screen

Hello

Ive had a problem with the display on my satellite M30. I can start in fine etc windows but colorful lines going up and down my screen, as well as the general artifacts. I cant even install drivers nvidia without a blue screen.

The strange thing is that if I apply pressure to the left side of my touchpad, I install the drivers and all is well! Release the pressure and the computer crashes. Ive opened the laptop and can't find anything that could be the cause.

Any idea here?

Hello

You can check if the problem is related to the LCD or the graphics card.
Try to connect the external monitor and check if the lines appear on the second screen.
If the lines appear not the graphics card should be ok.

Have you tried to install the graphics driver on the Nvidia site? These drivers are not designed for use on the Toshiba laptop. You must use own graphics drivers of Toshiba, because drivers support a protection against overheating.
If the temperature rises to highest, the Toshiba drivers critical level will be decrease the performance of the graphics card.
Other graphics drivers don t support that such function and, therefore, the graphics chip can overheat!

In any case, I think that also the technician must check the laptop

  • Center a HorizontalFieldManager vertically on the screen

    Hello world

    I have a HorizontalFieldManager in a VerticalFieldManager. The HorizontalFieldManager contains a BitmapField in a 'cell' and a GridFieldManager customized in another cell.

    I'm trying to make sure the HorizontalFieldManager is centered vertically on the screen, but have been unable to do. Most of the forum posts say "create your own Manager. I can do it, but I'm not sure that the Manager must specify to vertically Center the HorizontalFieldManager.

    Someone can push me in the right direction? Here's what I have so far:

    imageOutputField = new BitmapField();
    href = new HrefField("Synopsis", 0xffffff, 0x043184, 0x00EF3825);
    href.setChangeListener(this);
    
    grid.add(href);
    
    VerticalFieldManager vfm = new VerticalFieldManager(
        Field.USE_ALL_WIDTH | Field.USE_ALL_HEIGHT
        | VerticalFieldManager.VERTICAL_SCROLL
        | VerticalFieldManager.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR);
    
    horiz = new HorizontalFieldManager(DrawStyle.VCENTER);
    
    horiz.add(imageOutputField);
    horiz.add(grid);
    
    vfm.add(horiz);

    Worked perfectly. In my opinion it is better this way. You create what you want inside of a Manager, and then add the Manager and after that, do the math (with getPreferredWidth/height) and set the margins.

  • Satellite P100-286 - vertical on the screen restart and constant lines

    I got this P100-286 with Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 GS and recently the laptop started to freeze options even with vertical lines on the screen tried recovery cd tried to re - install and after installation, that he started to do the same. I have read similar problems in the forum and this is a common problem with Toshiba? I have spend £1500 on this and it is only 3 years old. My friends have older laptops of this almost 6 years old and in good working condition.
    Y at - it a suggestion for this problem or a solution? The heat on the basis of the laptop is really hot and it's like that for centuries.

    Any help is really appreciated after spending so much like to last longer or it is a problem of reliability with the Toshiba brand.

    Hi vns.

    Hmm strange. I have ever read on these issues here in the forum with Satellite P100. Friend of me has the same model and it s still does work correctly, no problems at all.

    Do you have the same vertical lines on a screen? If so, it is certainly associated with the internal graphics card and not watch.
    By the way: you have the same problem in the BIOS or just Windows?

    With regard to the heat on the underside: I think that it s time to clean it and remove dust. You can do this using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. That's why it of not necessary to disassemble your laptop.

  • Satellite P105-S6114 - gray line vertically on the screen

    Hello

    I'm new to the forum so please excuse me if I look like a novice (because I am).
    I have a Toshiba P105-S6114 that suddenly developed a gray vertical line about 1 inch wide and about 3 inches from the right side of the screen. It seems that if it is washed out. You can not see on white screens but is very sensitive to all other colors. It appears when you start the laptop to search on the net, I think while it is on the screen. What is the screen? or something escapes me?

    Please correct me for false assumptions in my post.

    I started pricing new screens. Locally for installing I got a quote of less than $500.00. I saw on ebay (new) about $280.00 aus replacement screens. Installation I expect about $100.00. If someone knows a cheaper solution, I would be very happy to hear it.

    I saw a screen for a P105-s6062 that appears from the PDF file to be identical to the S6114. It is second hand, but sounds like a viable option. Does anyone know if the screens are identical, including the connections?

    Someone at - it any other suggestions? I'd be happy to hear from someone as the laptop itself is large and I don't really want to get rid of it.

    > It appears when starting the laptop to search on the net, I think while it is on the screen. What is the screen? or something escapes me?
    It might be the screen of laptops, but it could also be a malfunction of the graphics card.
    If you first need to know what's exactly wrong.

    In your case, I recommend you to connect a second external monitor to the laptop.
    Then check if the same vertical lines appears also on external monitor.

    If the same could not be visible on the other display, the chances are high that a graphics card is malfunctioning.

    In this case a replacement of the motherboard would be necessary and this would be a costly affair!

    Anyway, in both cases, I would recommend contacting the ASP in your country.

  • Satellite P100-115 - vertical lines to appear on the screen

    Hello.

    My Satellite P100-115 is 2.5 years but yesterday a thin vertical line appeared on the screen.
    I already checked this problem by connecting an external monitor.

    The line does not appear on the external display.
    Could you tell me what might get hurt? I always took care of the laptop so he couldn't be a race of misuse.

    Concerning
    Lukas

    Hello, Lukas

    You did the right thing and tested it with the external monitor. There is evidence that the display is faulty and must be replaced. It has nothing with the help of the ADB. Such a thing just happens.

    Sorry, buddy, but there are two solutions, either Exchange the screen or use it with external monitor. :(

  • Satellite M70-151 - line gray portrait in the middle of the screen

    Hello

    Since a few days of view, I have a problem with my laptop, Satellite M 70-151.

    There is a vertical line (dark gray) in the middle of the screen... It appeared when I used microsoft word.
    At first I thought that it is just an error display or something... but after a reboot, it was still there... so I tried reinstalling display drivers...
    other drivers to install the display, but it did not help anything. The line is not as visible on a screen... It is always in the same place on the screen

    so I think that it cannot be that the material... the screen itself, but I was always very carefully with Notepad.

    my warranty ran out 5 months ago... do anyone know what I can do now?
    Don't know how to fix :(

    (sry for my bad English)

    In my opinion, it's certainly a hardware problem. I am not sure, but it must be malfunction of the display. To confirm this test with external monitor. If the desktop without this gray line certainly display problem.

    How to solve it? You can live with it or the display must be exchanged. Also, there are not many possibilities. You can contact the authorized service provider to see how much the repair will be fresh, or you can try to view an opportunity (e.g. eBay). The second option is cheaper but without maintenance manuals, you should not disassemble the laptop on your own.

  • Satellite M30 - user not allowed to update the BIOS

    I have a Satellite M30 (204, according to me, model 60 GB 1.6 GHz) and I try to update the BIOS but get the error message the "the user is not allowed to update the bios. The reason why I'm trying to update it is I just bought a 250 GB hard drive, but the BIOS does recognize that 128 GB and I guess the most up-to-date BIOS will allow the drives of this size, although I have not found any documentation for precise to say so be it.

    Someone at - it a patch to update the BIOS (I don't think I have a usb floppy drive drive anywhere) or to access the full capacity in other ways? Thank you.

    Ainsworth

    Hello

    could you please tell me what operating system you´re to help? I guess that Windows Xp...

    Usually, the update of the BIOS routine has absolutely NOTHING to do with the capacity of your hard disk drive. You are working with a limited user account? If not, I suggest right clicking on the BIOS update file and choose the option "Run as..". Subsequently a windows pop up and you ask under which user you want to run this program. Click on the "Next user" radio button and choose the administrator. If you have a password for your admin account and then type in, otherwise it should start automatically.

  • Satellite M30 and new driver nVidia - after the awakening of the screen stays off

    I have Toshiba Satellite M30. Recently, I installed the new nVidia 9.1.3.1 driver (summer 2006) and after that, I started to encounter problems with wakes my notebook of booth mode and a problem with the power of the monitor.

    If computer sleeps or its monitor is turned off and I try to make it work again it hangs with a black screen (although I can see slightly backlight) and doesn't react to anything except the hard reset. What should I do? Going back to the old nVidia Driver?

    Windows XP Pro SP2 + all updates update MS. nVidia FX Go5200 video card

    Hello

    If you use the drivers directly from nVidia it can cause problems, because they are not designed for laptops. The downloadable driver of Toshiba for this model is the 46,44 version. If you want a newer driver, you can watch the new laptops with nVidia card. Or you can search the Internet, maybe you'll find a driver updated for notebooks somewhere.

  • Satellite M30-604: unable to connect to the WLan

    Hi all

    I have some problems with my toshiba SM30-604

    First of all, I find the product in the section support somehow, even I can't find it by giving the serial number! ???
    Even with the program auto-detection!

    The other big problem is with the wireless card.
    Since the first time I bought the laptop when I tried to connect with some internet wirless networks I had problems with certain types of escryption of these networks.

    If the network is an escryption
    WPA,
    WPA 2,.
    WPA - PSK
    WPA2-PSK
    I can not connect to this network and he brings a message, something like "the network may not be available at this time" Although it is.

    Even if has a WEP encryption and password isn't a 10-digit is brings a message like "the neck should be 40 bits or 104 bits and 5 or 13 ASCII characters and 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters.

    The last days I can not connect to any wireless network for the above reasons.
    I know that its an old pc, but it is very good even for today an I still use it even I have other laptops

    Please can someone help me?
    Will there be some updates for my card toshiba wireless?
    I downloaded the automatic detection tool, but it does not recognize my pc model

    Under my pc has this data:

    SM30-604
    model No. PSM30E-0SY2K-GK

    the wireless card must be the:
    Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter

    I'm desperate this problem.

    > First of all, I find the product in the section support somehow, even I can't find it by giving the serial number! ???

    The portable M30-604 PSM30E-0SY2K-GK is an old classic. Right?
    Well, Toshiba driver European page you will find three categories: Archive, book and Options.
    If you don't find this portable model of laptop in the computer category then I would say that the next step should be archiving. Right? To me, it seems plausible to check the area archives due to the age of the laptop.

    In addition, the books are sorted by serial number; means that you won't find satellite M30 604 but Satellite M30 PSM30E.

    To my knowledge the Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 supports only 802.11 B Wlan standard and only the key WEP, WPA, encryption (AES +).
    FTP://download.Intel.com/support/wireless/WLAN/SB/intelprowireless2100mpci_prodbrief.PDF

    This means that if the WiFi network is not set to 802.11 B and if the WiFi network has been set to WPA2 encryption, so you won't be able to connect to this network.
