• Satellite P10 - 554 dvd - ram does not work

  I got a Satellite P10 554, and as I said above the RAM does not work.
  It should be a software problem, because if I reinstall the drivers it works a few minutes (it did until now yesterday it stopped completely)
  It is impossible to install the new drivers or update a firmware somehow
  (pilot: after rebooting, the old drivers are loaded again (but I uninstalled them))
  (firmware update: I still got the message: invalid drive to update f/w)

  I hope that someone of you can help me ;)

  Hello

  What did you mean with the work of t car doesn?
  You are not able to burn or read the media?

  The error message says it all. I think you re not able to update the firmware because the firmware is not supported on this drive.

  Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then shut down the laptop.
  Usually after restarting again the operating system should recognize the drive again.
  If this does not help, you can try to remove the drive from the laptop. Turn on the unit, then go into windows. The reader should disappear. Then stop and reset the drive in the notebook. After this procedure the laptop must load the firmware again.

• Satellite P10 554 does not start

  Hello!

  First of all, sorry for my bad English

  The problem:

  I installed windows XP Professional on my Satellite P10 554.
  I bought it on ebay and the seller said that everything goes well with this laptop and the tests when I turn on the laptop saying the same thing.

  But after installing XP, it does not start!
  It is the boot screen with the blue line that moves. This line moves a little, that it stop and that all the time and nothing happens!
  I tried the same thing with XP home, and windows 2000, but it has the same problem!
  I really need this phone. I hope someone can help me!

  > I bought it on eBay and the seller said that if everything goes well with this laptop and the tests when I turn on the laptop saying the same thing.

  You said that the test says it of ok. How did you test it?

  > It's the boot screen with the blue line that moves.

  You mean the OS bar which moves while loads the OS. Am I wrong?
  Hmm, if you have tested the laptop with Win XP and W2K then I guess that you have installed the two OS on this laptop and it was possible to install it?
  Am I wrong?

  Sorry to say but if the laptop is unable to load the operating system the hardware would be a malfunction.
  I think you should first check the memory modules, then the HARD drive. Maybe one of the modules does not work correctly or some bad sectors can cause the problem.

• Windows 7 on Satellite P10 554, need drivers

  Hello
  I installed a new Windows 7 on my Satellite P10 554.
  Now I can not find some drivers for my device, in particular for the USB device,
  who stands out, if I use an external hard drive.
  In addition, I got an error code 28 for the base systemdevice (to 2 PCI bus) and
  the performances of "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor', who is not the driver ACPI/CMP0101
  compatible with W7.
  What else can I do?

  Thanks for the reply

  Hallo Lupi

  I had Satellite P10 for the year 2003. So please don't get me wrong, but you have 6 years book, designed for Windows XP Home edition and now you ask you cannot find drivers for Win7.

  What you can do? Nothing. This oldie is not supported for Win7.
  Use the operating system that is supported and to be happy. If you want to use a more recent software I think it's time for the most recent material. ;)

  Satellite P10 is also really nice and absolutely reliable laptop.

• Satellite P10 554 LAN wireless connection

  Hello people,

  I have a laptop Satellite P10 554. I'm not able to get the wireless LAN. I have a Netgear wireless modem and a Netgear USB wireless "receiver". I have configured the entire setup and switched 'on' switch wireless on the left side of the laptop. Nothing happened. The light on the left side on the laptop that shows the availability of the wireless network never radiated.

  I have installed and inserted into the mobile network.

  Please advise on how should I proceed to get the wireless LAN working.

  Thank you in advance.
  Matel

  Hello

  As far as I know that the Wireless LAN is optional on this unit. This means that the appliance has been delivered without wireless card, but it s can put the card in the laptop.
  Are you sure that your device has a wireless card? You can check in the Device Manager. In addition, must be on the wireless network by using the switch on the side of the laptop and the key combination FN + F8.

  Please check these options.

  Good bye

  Hello

  From your description, I think your device overheat and go down because he cannot be cooled properly. P 10 satellite is older and it's time to clean up. You can't imagine how much dust inside the unit you will find.

  I put t know how are you familiar with this, but if you have no experience don t do it alone.

  The solution was a lot of patience.

  a. right click on the Windows Explorer icon

  b. in the menu that appears, click Properties.

  c. in the target box, add the command line switch ' / root ' to the "% SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe" command, using the startup location that you want.

  d. for example, if you want Explorer of Windows to start at the root of drive C, edit the command as follows:

• Satellite P10 722: what Mini-PCI WLAN can I integrated?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P10 722. It seems to be ready wireless (it has an LED to show the WLAN activity). I would use an internal Mini-PCI card in it. Ideally, it would be a b/g card.

  Anyone know what model/part number Mini-PCI card will work with this laptop.
  She is not in the list of compatibility of the any of the maps on this page (http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/options_and_accessories_search.jsp?z=16&service=UK & selOptionCategory = 4696)

  Thanks for your help,
  Shane

  Hello Shane

  Sorry, but this kind of information can give you just the authorized service partner. I don't know if the P10 722 is ready WLAN but you can check only. In the lower corner of the unit, you will find WiFi coverage. Remove it carefully and check if there are two antenna WLAN (black and white) cables. If so, the device is definitely ready WLAN.

  Contact the Service partner and ask them for you to adapt to your model of laptop. As far as I know, the consultation is free.

  Just for info. One of my friends has P10 with WLAN (802 11b Agere) card.

  Good bye

• Satellite P10 804: how to remove the HARD drive?

  I would like to remove the internal hard disk of 60 GB of my satellite P10 804 and replace it with a bigger drive, but cannot find a way to enter in the case of removing the HARD drive.

  Does anyone have the details on how to do?

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the HARD drive must be placed under the optical dirve.
  To remove the HARD drive, first remove the battery and the optical drive, and then follow the steps below:

  1. remove the four black screws that anchor the shield of aluminum covering the HARD drive and pull it out.
  2. gently pull on the HARD drive the front panel of the computer to disconnect the system board, then pull it out.
  3. remove the four silver screws that attach the HARD drive to the HARD disk case.

  But be careful. If you have no experience ask someone with more experience in these replacements.

• Satellite P10 554 turns off, can't start again, but the lights still burning

  My P10 554 stops after a few minutes. After that, I can't restart, but led lights are always on fire. When I'm waiting for a few minutes or a few hours, then I can restart my laptop once again, but it spans about one or two minutes and then stops himself again...

  I thought about a problem with the fan or something like that, but why the led still is on fire after stopping? What can I do?

  If the AC adapter is plugged in to the computer some LEDS are usually on. For example the battery LED lights up green when it s fully charged.
  However, it s not usual that the laptop stops after several minutes of race and for me it certainly looks like a hardware failure.

  The problem is just a common user like me and you is not usually able to fix or to locate the fault. You certainly need a help of a technician with a lot more experience.
  The guys from the ASP can run diagnostic tests and are able to find out what's wrong on the Board.

• Satellite P10 554 problem intel wireless 2200BG

  Hello

  I ve got a P10-554 and tried to install a mini-PCI Intel 2200BG card. the driver is correct installed but the work of won´t-hardware switch. I have could´t turn on the wireless card.

  in another P10 554 a 2100 b card work very well.

  Anyone know why?

  Hello

  It is possible that new generation cards cannot be activated by a wireless switch. I'm not sure that f happens only with Intel adapters. Please check in Device Manager if the card is recognized and installed correctly. If so try to establish a wireless connection.

  I'm sure it should work correctly.

• Problem update satellite P10 554 to XP Pro

  Hello

  got the P10 554, with Windows XP Home Edition. Since I have my own copy of XP Pro and need additional components, which are NOT part of the home ed., I tried to update.

  Works fine until the point where it says "Starting Windows". The progress bar runs out, the screen goes black and not more disk access hard and CD.

  Everyone runs into that as well, or is there a solution for this problem?

• Satellite P10-504 - Defrag does not work properly

  HI all, I am a little concerned about my defrag report.

  When analyzing, the first third is mainly blue with thin red lines, the rest is white with massive two bits of green and red lines. After defragmentation it looks any better, said the report that 10 GB couldn't be moved doc/settings and a lot of little things.
  No matter how many times I defragment I get the same results and although I analyze after defrag it says always defragment now.

  I tried the Windows tools to repair bad sectors, but nothing helped. I would say just having said all that, the computer even if a bit slow seems to work ok, with no real problems but would like advice
