  Toshiba Satellite P100-286

  Hello guys!

  Can someone help to solve my problem? For some time, I am not able to change/enter in ma, for example: screensaver of personalization in Control Panel. I can use only 2 of 7 available in "Customization" options/links Could someone help me, please?

  "Customization" isn't the only one of all the icons I can't come. There is a bit more such as: keyboard, Mail, regional and Language Options etc. Looks like the links to each of them does not work for me! :(

  I don't want to go through reinstalling Windows Vista so any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you very much!

• Satellite A100-635: is it possible to use the DDR2-667 RAM

  I have a portable satellite a100-635 with 1024 MB of RAM DDR2-533. Is it possible to use the DDR2-667 RAM modules instead of 533 in this model? Thank you.

  P.S. I doubt because all portable satellite I've seen so far have been equipped with 533 modules by default. Still the chipset supports officially the DDR2-667 (Intel 945GM) modules.

  Hello

  I'm not 100% sure, but as the site says that it won't work, I think you can trust them, and it does not work.
  But if you want to try it, please post the result here.

• Satellite P100-119: is it possible to upgrade the processor to Core Duo?

  I ve a Satellite P100-119 computer laptop with 1, 66 GHz (Core Duo). Is it possible to install a faster processor (2.0 Ghz Duo Core) in this notebook, without Exchange of the motherboard?

  Hello

  Toshiba doesn't usually recommend upgrading CPU and doesn t support these upgrades. Everything you make are at your own risk!
  In this case you will lose the warranty and if something goes wrong you will not get any support.

  Well, some people suggested that it is possible and that works, but I've never tried and cannot give you a 100% guarantee that it will work.

• Satellite P100-400: is it possible to change the graphics card?

  Hello

  I would like to know if it is possible to change the graphics card? It's the nvidia Go 7900 Gs with 512 MB...
  Have the nvidia mxm?
  Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

  At first, I must say that your English is very good and understandable.
  Back to your question: update graphic card is not possible. The graphics card is part of the motherboard and cannot be exchanged separately.

  Please note that the portable is not so extensible as on desktop computers. The upgrade can be done with RAM or HARD drive very easy, but not with processor or graphics card.

• Satellite P100-240: is it possible to replace the graphics card

  Okay, im fairly new to laptops, I had my P100-240 for just under a year.
  I set up with it for long enough, its been really good to me.
  The problem that has really started to check me is the graphics card, Nvidia Go 7600, it slow, Nvidia do not support updated drivers (laim).

  A lot of my games have problems with this graphics card.
  I'm looking at open aperture of my little baby and I hope just place in a compatible graphics card.

  I'm looking to replace the Go 7600 with an alternative of ATI, a list of possible cards that will fit, where I can get my hands on one of these maps and prices if possible fuck. I won't pay too much money if it's not going to be worth.

  Thanks for reading, hope to get answers soon.

  Hello

  Replacing a graphics card on laptops is not possible because it is part of the motherboard. For example: by faulty graphics card, the entire motherboard must be exchanged.

  Sorry but there is nothing to do.

  Hi, I would like to put the second HARD drive. Is it posible to do it in this model? I saw put to HDD2, how do I open the lid?

  Hello

  As you have already said it depends on the laptop model.
  The second location of the HARD drive should be placed at the bottom of the unit near the first location of HARD drive!
  You can consult the user manual! There should be a picture with all the details!

  For most of these covers are guaranteed only with one or two screws and if you want to remove this cover you have to remove these screws!

  You should know that it is not easy to provide an exactly fault diagnosis without putting his hands on her.
  What we can do is to provide some sort of suggestions

  So I think it could be a faulty battery, so first the battery should be checked.
  If problems still persist, then electronic power supply failure might be possible

  However, the equipment should be checked and this can be done by an ASP in your country
  It would be desirable to communicate with these guys and ask for help

  Hello, I'm looking to upgrade the RAM on my laptop Toshiba Satellite P100-286. I did some research but have resulted in conflicting reports.
  RAM DDR2 RAM right or is it So DIMM DDR2 RAM? According to the Toshiba site, it is not, but when I go to one of the sites Web "Upgrade your Ram" and enter my brand and model, he suggested the So-Dimm type...

  I'm looking for a little clarification. Thank you.

  You will find details on the compatible RAM modules:
  You need DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM

  Of course, you could choose another manufacturer like Kingston but I m using Kingston modules in my other laptop and it s ok.

• Satellite P100-286 - charge not completely even in stop...

  Hey all,.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite P100-286 and my problem is that when it s on and I plugged it load the light orange will be on indicating that the load and it will say connected load, but the battery life does not exceed 96%, yesterday he wouldn t go above 97%, and once again on the eve of 98% (lol) , the thing is when I have the laptop off and have supported (the witness orange still on indicate its charging) it will not load fully. When I turn on my laptop it is always 1% less than it was the last time I got it on as you can see by whats described above... I'm sorry for the long post, it of just quite difficult to explain.

  So can someone please help? Is it my battery what should replace is exhausting? Or is it something to do with the BIOS?
  Please help, thank you in advance for any response.

  Hello

  When the laptop is ON try to remove the battery and after a minute or two inside put once again. Please let me know what happens after that.
  To be honest, it is not easy to say why this happens exactly. I don't think THAT BIOS is responsible for this.

  Have you used the battery power intensively or your laptop worked mainly on feeding current?

• Satellite P100-286: Explorer no longer responds when leaving hybernation

  I have re-installed Vista from disk Toshiba supplied with the cleaning machine, gone through the process of updating, that is microsoft and Toshiba updates and drivers.

  I have searched data base Microsoft on the errors of Hybernation for Vista, most are to do with the USB, but without coming through what im getting.

  Regarding loans Vista boot USB that I use, which stuck ok to use it in vista, activate or disable the always the same problem.

  Do you have ideas about how this can be fixed.

• How to get 5.1 sound on Satellite P100-286

  I had to replace my old P100-347 of 2 months, because of cracks on the hinge. The only model they had available was the P100-286. It is almost identical, except one thing, that I was not informed until I got it home and so too late to resume.

  Basically, the P100-347 had a SPDIF port and the 286 (as far as I can see), does not work. So, what I want to know is, what kind of sound that I am able to get the decision-making helmet.

  I plugged my Dolby Digital amp, and everything seems to be able to get is 2 audio channels, when I would be able to get 5.1 channels... In fact, I would like to have SPDIF, but don't think it will happen.

  Can someone advise and give me some advice on solving this.

  Thanks in advance
  Steve

  On the Satellite P100-286 S/PDIF port is not available and if you want to have 5.1 surround sound you need to use an external solution connected to the USB port. Google around. You will find quite different products, that you can use with your laptop.
