• Start on Satellite M30-107 error message

  I get the following message when you try to start:

  Windows didn't start because the following file is missing or damaged
  \windows\system32\config\system
  You can try to repair this file by starting windows setup using the original CD-ROM. Select 'r' setup in the first screen to start repair.

  What is causing this error message I did nothing that should have caused an error? I can't repair using the Setup disk under windows XP was preinstalled when you buy. Any ideas please?

  Hi Linda,.

  This message is quite common and can indicate that there is a problem with your hard drive. It is always possible that the file quotes was too written or damaged by another application on your laptop but from my experience, it's pretty rare.

  The Windows repair console is available if you have a copy of the original Windows XP installation CD, but if you have only the recovery CD provided with your laptop then this option will not be available from the recovery CD contains only a restorable copy of your operating system that you can use to restore your system. This, however, will delete all your personal data from the laptop.

  If you have access to a standalone utility such as Norton Disk Doctor so I would recommend that run you a scan of your hard drive to determine what state it is in.

• Satellite M30 - error message after replacing the DVD drive

  Virgin, excused my English ;)
  I have a satellite m30 and I replaced the DVD-cd-rw drive in series with a SLIM NEC ND-6650 DOUBLE LAYER, DVD time bios gives me error
  0203: failure IDE #2
  Is it possible to remove this message?

  Hello

  As far as I know that this message can not be eliminated and it happens every time if you want to use the drive is not compatible. Always is it that all readers may not work with all models of laptops.

  In this case, fundamental problem is the pin assignment. It is not the same in all players.

  Good bye

• Satellite M30, partitioning

  After that I got some error messages and viruses so I had to format my laptop the Satellite M30.
  I used the recovery CD Toshiba 2 and the only option for me was Option 1 Option 2 is reserved for specialists, and I'm not familiar with all the terms it. In any case, the formatting not only formatait the C:\ but D:\ thus merged the formerly 2 x 30 GB in a single C:\ partition, I had no option to stop this.
  How can I split my C:\ drive again into 2 partitions of the same size?

  Sorry, but the only way with the delivered software on a M30 to create partitions is the expert mode.
  As far as I know.

  But I have a proposal.

  Tomorrow I'll do a recovery on my M30 will inform you as soon as possible.

  Good bye

• Satellite M30 restart

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M30, which, after a few years of loyal and troubled, free service began to take a few minutes to start. I tried to fix this using the product recovery discs but can get no more than the screen asks me to insert the disc 1. After a few minutes of a blank screen, there is a beep and an 'error' message.

  Can t really afford a new laptop and I'm a little worried about buying a 2nd hand, so this is my last hope.

  Read what people are saying in these forums, I feel out of my depth and probably wont be able to understand all the answers that come my way. But if someone have any ideas then please let me know. Thank you. getcarter

  P.S. I was in a curry the other day looking at all the laptops I could t afford, when I heard someone who brought a Toshiba and seemed to have the same problem. Unfortunately, the Currys staff didn't have much of a clue and could only think of hitting the 'C' button over and over and over and over again!

  As far as I know Satellite M30 comes with 2 recovery CD (1/2 and 2/2).
  The recovery procedure must be started with CD1/2. Check this and that!

• Can not turn on the Satellite M30

  Hello everyone...

  I have a Satellite M30 laptop for time enough and I'm having a problem with it. When I try to turn it on, it makes a kind of scratch noise and then nothing happens. The hard drive lit wrath but the computer does no sound and no picture on the screen. I tried to turn it on with and without the battery and the same thing happens.

  A few days before this happened that I could see the windows startup screen, after that the computer crashed, even when I went to the BIOS Setup screen, the computer also crashed, so the problem was not on the hard disk. A few days later, when I tried to turn it back on, it makes a single probe and nothing else happened. Can it be a motherboard problem? can I try before sending it for repair

  I'm scared of m it s a serious problem.
  Depending on the symptoms that you described the laptop cannot get the message and so I think there may be an error on the motherboard.
  I don t think you will be able to locate the fault. It is simply not possible for the common user like you and me

  If you have no choice as to the request of the service provider for Toshiba for help.

• Ports COM1-4 'missing' Satellite M30

  Hello, communication ports (COM1-4) series of my sound of portable Satellite M30 suddenly "disappeared", or, at least, Window XP (Home version) is unable to detect them - through the management of resources or similar tools of surveillance - only parallel port (LPT1) is reported.
  Problem is that the modem (internal standard) (by default on COM3) is unable to work. Modem seems ok - at least according to Windows - but, as you can guess, it cannot accept AT command (and therefore start up).
  Everything else seems to work fine - including the Infrared Port, which should work, by default, on COM4? and mouse Touchpad. No problem i/o and IRQ address is detected on the other peripherls.
  Only the system serial port driver (serial.sys) is alarmed that unable to boot because.
  ..??? .. Even thought a hardware problem - ex.electrostatic discharge or similar? - but a couple of days ago the modem starts unexpectedly and worked correctly for long enough - even if with the COM ports still without being detected by Windows - but after connection went down and modem could not start (Error 633: modem, a device already in service or other problems of configuration...).
  .. Before proceeding to more annoying (and probably expensive) actions - such as reinstalling Windows?... or looking for a repair center - I wanted to try to replace the driver (serial.sys) series, but I was unable to find it-in the CD provided with the product or on the Toshiba site. Where can I find it?
  Other suggestions?
  Thank you

  Hello

  Don t look for serial port drivers. These ports are using simply common Microsoft Windows drivers!
  According to your description there are different problems with different internal devices.

  If all goes well it of not a hardware problem?  :|

  So in my opinion we must first know if it s a software or hardware problem.
  In this case you take your original Toshiba Recovery CD and must be reinstalled the operating system.

  Note; the whole HARD disc will be fomrated and you will lose data. So, don t forget to back up your data.

  If the new installation of the operating system didn't help any, and you will always receive error messages the technician must check the laptop!

  Good luck

• 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: Does not start XP

  My Tosh Satellite M30 laptop (with 2 HD discs) does not work after I have updated with the MS security updates, it does not start XP.

  The laptop makes a clicking sound and gives me the message:

  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
  Operating system not found.

  I changed the boot order in the BIOS to: CDROM. And select Exit and save changes.
  Inserted my Toshiba Recovery windows XP version that allows me the option of
  "1. the recovery disc" or "2. Expert recovery mode"or also"Exit ".
  I chose "1. Recovery disc"as I'm not an expert (as you can tell!)

  I then get a load of diagnostic checks run by laptop and it shows then finally on the screen:
  X:\\ no disk fixed

  Ideally, I would like to repair and keep things I have on my drive D: HD.

  I'm pretty sure the XP starts on my drive C: HD.

  Your help is very appreciated!

  Suraj

  Hello

  The PXE message means that the device is trying to boot from the network. I put t understand you a lot with C and D HD. I assume you mean that you have two partitions on a single HARD disk. C partition for the operating system and the D partition for your data.

  If I understood you as soon as you cannot boot operating system at all. On this path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem but obviously you a problem with the HARD drive. It is probably defective. If the recovery DVDs is not able to detect one that there may be a serious problem.

  I put t know how contact the partner old Service your unit is but if the warranty is still valid and let check the device.

  Good luck!

• Satellite M30: Questions about the battery, SD, energy-saving card reader

  1. After looking through the forums, it seems that my problem is not uncommon: my Toshiba Satellite M30 seems to have a life of the battery for about 10 minutes. Power not connected to the adapter, Windows detects 100%... 99%... Then 3%. Throughout the life of the battery is about 10 minutes, and I don't know why. Does anyone know? (Info from BG: laptop about 2 years, not too used)

  2. How will I know exactly WHAT model of Toshiba Satellite M30 I? (There is a code after the M30-part - I need this to find out what batteries I need to buy to replace)

  3. What is the nearest Service Center, I can talk to the United Kingdom with regard to my battery problem? From Toshiba Web site lists 20 companies different with Toshiba in them to the United Kingdom, and I have no idea which we touch!

  4. my SD card reader is a bit faulty. To put a SD card, no message appears to recognize the card - the laptop just doesn't recognize at all, and I do not see "SD card" or equivalent in "My Computer". However, if I put an SD card, and then restart the computer, I can see the SD card, it simply does not update while the computer is on, when I restart - cures for this?

  5. Finally, can I download the software of management of TOSHIBA POWER SAVER? I downloaded from this site but right now the only option when I open the TOSHIBA CONSOLE is 'Mouse' - there is no standby power options or network options or anything.

  Thanks in advance, sorry there are so many questions and they are so different!

  Cheerio,
  John

  Hello

  1) looks like a dead battery. It s not unusual that the battery will discharge performance after about 2 years. As far as I remember, you can load and unload the battery for about 500 times. After this period, the lifetime battery decreases faster. The same symptom occurs for example with a cell phone battery. I think you should ask the new battery Toshiba service partner. PS: The guarantee covers the battery for about a year.

  (2) it's very easy at the bottom of the unit, you will find a label with the serial number and the name of detailed specifications.

  (3) visit this site:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?PF=true
  You will find the database with ASP together all over the world. These guys are responsible for replacements, repairs, etc.

  (4) number of SD card is very strange. On my Satellite SD card window opens if I insert the SD card. You can try to remove the SD card from the Device Manager reader and after that new reboot, the OS should has new charge card CD driver. Eventually, it helps.

  (5) I don't know what you mean exactly but on the Toshiba driver page, you will find the tool power Toshiba compatible and taken in charge. If you have downloaded from the area Sat M30 driver so I think you can use it only on this laptop.

  take easy B-)

• Satellite M30-344 would not start

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M30-344.
  I have use Notepad for several weeks. Now, whenever I start the laptop computer, an error message appears: "0203: failure IDE #2 - you want to start the installation.
  Since the last use, I has not changed anything on the configuration.
  The only problem there is that I forgot to turn it off, and he continued to run under my table for more than 2 weeks.

  Is there a way to fix this?

  Thank you for your help.

  Greetings from the Germany!

  Hello

  .. Oh dear, you're not kidding? You forgot to turn it off and kept under a table? Man, that s REALLY weird. :)

  And now, to help you with your problem:
  IDE #2 means the DVD player, if you have a few options to bring your machine to life, because your DVD player might be defective.
  First of all, try to enter the BIOS and do everything by default. If you didn t get results, then remove the disc by unscrewing the screw under the drive and gently pulling the drive out
  THA machine. Alternatively, after you unscrewed, gently open the reader and then pulling it by the internal transport of the reader.

  In case of doubt, how or afraid to damage something, then bring your machine to a local ASP and they will help you with your problem.
  So, I think, your drive is probably faulty.

  Welcome them

  P.S.: And try to remember next time when what you keep under your table such as notebooks, animals, humans, gremlins... ;)

  Beautiful weekened

• Satellite M30 - after replacing drive DVD 0203: failure IDE #2 appears

  Hello

  I replaced the DVD unit on my Satellite M30 as it was broken. I installed the same unit (UJ - 820B), but now at startup, I get the error message 0203:Failure IDE #2 with options to continue starting in the operating system or run the Setup program (which does not offer something to solve this problem). The operating system (Windows XP sp2) loads fine, but the DVD unit is not recognized.

  Help!

  Thank you.

  Hi Paul,.

  All optical discs are delivered with a parameter of the base (master, slave, or C/salt) interface configured in the firmware. on PC, readers there are usually small switches to activate this setting to change, but unfortunately on readers portable there is not, so it is very important to make sure the new drive is correctly implemented by the manufacturer of the correct specification for your laptop.

  If you got the new drive to an ASP then you will need to confirm with them that the new drive is set correctly.

  From my experience, most third-party resellers don't advertise what settings their readers that makes get a suitable replacement that is very difficult.

  Kind regards

• Satellite M30 - BSOD Stop 7F, 0x00000008

  Hi gurus!

  I have a problem with my Satellite M30 laptop, I turn it on and after completing all procedures of departure (and before doing anything) I get a blue screen with the following error message:
  STOP 0X0000007F (0 X 00000008, 0 X 00000000, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)
  UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP
  then, the computer restarts automatically.

  I found some info on this kind of error, and the problem may be caused by damage to the processor. I guess I can change it but I did not how or what I need, any of you can tell me if I can make the change and how?

  Thanks in advance

  Best regards

  Hello

  Hmm... your first idea is not bad... it really looks like a hardware failure and article Microsoft Knowledge on errors "STOP 0x0000007F" confirms this.

  Here is the doc mentioned.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/137539/en-us/

  According to this document, your problem may be caused by;
  -problems hardware or software, but the hardware failure is the most common cause.
  -CPU overclocking (but I think we could exclude)
  -corrupt (vivid RAM) memory
  -malfunction of the motherboard

  The last possibility would be the worst case, and I hope that it is 'ONLY' a bad RAM.

  I think you should check your RAM modules and if possible test your laptop with new RAM modules

  Good bye

• 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.
