  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Hello

  I agree with Akuma sounds like a HARD drive problem
  The Hitachi Drive Fitness Test is not bad, that you can use to check the status of the HARD drive.
  You may need to replace the HARD drive.

• Why my screen is garbled with bad pixels

  The text for Mozilla (no other programs) is wrong to pixels. Some areas where it is supposed to be a part of the text is white, and some areas that are supposed to be white have other pixels of color.

  It remains like that, even when scrolling. But if I mark the text and then clear the option, this area is fixed.

  I can send a screen shot or two, but I don't see how to send attachments.

  Thank you very much. It works fine now.

  Hello

  > I then installed readers on the recovery cd and one existing on the toshiba web site
  Do you mean the DVD-RAM driver?

  As far as I know using DVD-RAM disks in the DVD MULTI drive, data can be written so that the function to write data on discs CD-R/RW standard Windows XP is enabled.

  Then please check if the check CD option activate called this roll
  CD / DVD-> properties-> recording tab
  is enabled or disabled

  By the way; After using the recovery CD, you don't need to install additional drivers. The restore CD contains all the necessary drivers including an important run Notepad correctly.

• Need feedback about 20 "widescreen on Satellite M30X

  Hello community,
  I want to buy a new monitor after the crash of my old 17 "LCD (I've already worked with double screen).
  So I am interested in the 20 "screen, as the Belinea 10 20 35W. But I don't know if my laptop supports its resolution (1680 x 1050).
  My laptop is a Satellite M30X with ATI mobility radeon 9700 128 MB graphics card.
  Fact the double screen is available: 1680 x 1050 (Belinea) + 1280 x 800 (laptop)?
  Do you have any comment on that?

  Thank you
  Olivier of France
  (Sorry for my English vague)

  Hello Olivier

  You will be very happy if someone has tested it. Why you n t test it in the store before you buy the big screen? Take your laptop with you, plug it into the store and test it properly.

  If you buy it without testing you can return it within 14 days if you are not satisfied.

  Good bye

• Satellite M30X: Trojan horse - total Formate with recovery disc?

  Hello

  I had a Trojan horse on my Satellite M30X. My Antivirus deleted, but every time I've been connected to the Internet, it appeared again. Not connected to the Internet it doesn't give me any problems. As I couldn't get rid of him, I backed up all my data and do a fresh install from the recovery disc. As long as the button for LAN wireless is disabled, everything works fine, but just a little while, after I turned on it, I get a blue screen. When I restart my computer with WIFI turned on, it produces a blue screen before Windows is properly loaded, even during installation. I tried restoring 3 times, but it's always the same result.

  1 is it possible, that the Trojan horse destroyed things of the pre installation?
  2. I can't choose to make a formatting during the recovery process. All data are lost, but I feel that's not formate the hard drive correctly, when everything is destroyed. It crushes just stuff?
  3. is there a way to make a good formatting, then install completely new Windows?

  It is not a problem of my WLAN card, internet being no problem under Linux.

  Thank you for your help

  Hello!

  If you use the whole HARD disk Toshiba Recovery disk will be formatted so if you have any virus or Trojans on your laptop, they will be also deleted.

  But what BSOD code are you have? Are you sure that's the reason why the virus?
  You have the same problem if you connect a network cable to the laptop?

• Satellite M30x - bootsequence Windows XP with blue screen

  I have the following problem: I have 2 different Satellite M Series notebooks of performance!

  The problem, that I wonder happens 100% of the tests, but after turning on the computer laptop and after the bootsequence - at the present time, that the windows XP logo appears - the system halts with a blue screen. Turn to restart and falls into the next blue screen.

  The only thing I discovered is that XP regularly also begins long switch WLAN hardware is turned OFF as soon as I turn this switch with Windows, the blue screen occurs immediately and the system runs out of oil.

  is that what is anyone able to help? -new review of pilots or any other solution to the problem would be appreciated!

  Hansjoerg

  Hey,.

  Congratulations, you have already found the problem! :)

  From my own experience, I can tell you that the same thing happened to a friend of mine. So he replaced the WLAN card with a new one and the problem has been resolved! Windows starts with WLAN turn on () correctly!

  What WLAN card is installed on your laptop?
  In Satellite M30x of my friend a WLAN Wireless Intel 2200 card has been installed. He bought a new one for little money on eBay and replaced it yourself because it s not very delicate.

  So take a look on eBay or other places. You can also ask a maintainer approved assistance if you are not familiar with the disassembly of the laptop.

• Power supply with Satellite M30x problem

  When I connect my Satellite M30X in power, he sometimes shows the power light and the battery light. It can then be turned on and will start and run.
  Most of the time the power light blinks and the battery light stay out: it will not illuminate.

  When it turns on, it will work for a period of a minute or two till about 4 hours and stops randomly.
  Now the led starts flashing and continues to Flash while it is powered.

  There must be some problem with electronic control gear. Strange is that this problem occurs from time to time.
  Sorry, but if you want to get rid of it you must contact Toshiba service and let check your laptop.

  To be honest, it can happen that
  Entire motherboard must be exchanged, and it can be quite expensive. Might be time for the new laptop computer. Satellite M30 is really old.

  What do you think of all this?

• Satellite M30x-154 works only with the battery in use

  I own a Satellite M30x 154 and did so for two years. Now the laptop is more fuel with just the battery in use.
  It feeds well with the power adapter and the power indicator shows the batterys is full of 74%.

  Any ideas?

  What to say? The battery is possibly defective. The fact is that M30 x is old enough laptop model. Everything is possible.

  What happens if you start Notepad with AC adapter, then remove the connector ca? Can you use Notepad on only battery power?

• Satellite M30X: Problems with external USB 2.0 HARD drive

  Hello
  I have a Toshiba Satellite M30X. I bought recently a 200 GB external hard drive. It has its own power supply. If I connect with USB 2.0 on my laptop, it happens to disconnect and reconnect leads him. Sometimes it works, so I can put data on the disc. Then again, he diconnects and reconnects repeatedly. I've tried a different USB Port, but there is no difference. It's very strange, because I plugged the external hard drive to many other computers (Laptop and Tower) and it STILL works! It is that with my cell phone, it disconnects and reconnects all the time. As I said, not always. Sometimes it works for a half an hour or two and then the action begins again...

  If anyone can help?
  Oxford Lutz

  Hello

  I put t know if this can help, but you can try to connect a USB hub with an external power supply. Then try to connect this external HARD disk to the USB hub.
  I know that it of not a exactly the solution but maybe it will help you to solve this problem of USB.

• How to connect a device to capture video for Satellite M30X 127

  I'm going round in circles trying to find a video capture device that will work with a laptop computer and would be grateful for advice. For example, I am now looking to the ' Canopus ADVC-110', although still looking autour (but not Pinnacle, which seem to have a bad reputation for the elements of capture).

  Problems include:

  1. the main problem is - many video capture devices require a "line-in" for PC for audio transfer of good quality. This laptop is not a line in, only headphones and mike catches. In addition, I also tried a few RCA pins into the 3.5 mm headset jack, and they were too small. How to solve the problem of getting audio from the VCR to my PC?

  2. the ADVC-110 connects to the PC via Firewire (and S-video), but is a type of SIX pins. M30X is a FOUR pin type. There are adapters available?

  3. Some capture programs seem to require a huge capacity of RAM. A laptop will be adapted to do the job? (I just want to capture old VCR to PC vhs tapes, and then burn it to DVD with Nero 7 or similar).

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  You are right! You must use an external device for the transmission of signals to your laptop. I put t know where you have this info but I have good experiences with Pinnacle product. I used the USB data transfer.

  "Canopus ADVC-110 is not known to me, but I put t see why this shouldn't work well." Use made software for video capture and there should not be any problem.

  The only thing is that, after registration of video equipment together must be prepared to burn and the unit need a lot of power to do this well und fast. When you buy it and to use on the way I recommend to extend the RAM to 1 GB.

  Compatible memory modules for your Satellite M30x are:
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
  1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

• Need of Windows Vista on Satellite M30X Toshiba power management tools

  Hi all

  recently switched to Windows Vista with my Satellite M30X.
  Unfortunately I can't manage my power options, because Windows doesn't let me do for the original use Toshiba machine tools to the place, but those with my laptop, I received are not compatible with Vista.
  There are no files available in this category on the download from Toshiba site.

  Do you have any ideas where to get these tools? Toshiba, or something different, but still compatible with Toshiba and Vista?
  Or at least how do to enable advanced power management options in Windows?

  Thank you very much for all the advice!

  Hello

  Toshiba Power saver for Vista is not out for Satellite M30X, and it seems that you use clean Vista power options.
  But to be honest, clean Vista power options aren't bad and can be configured easily.
