• Satellite P20 S203 - where can I get the cover external big screen?

  Hi all

  Anyone know where to find an outer cover of the big screen Satellite P20 S203?

  I broke it because I disassembled all the pc some time ago, and as I can see now that I took out the black cover around the screen. I forgot to screw the 2 screws on the hinges that make it able to open and close. It is only broken on one of the screens, hinges, so the pc is still usable, with appropriate caution, I can still open and close, but sooner or later, I think that the other will be too broke, opening and closing of the screen all the time, so I have to replace it
  .
  Hope someone can help me.
  Good bye

  Hello

  I'm not sure what cover you mean exactly, but you can get all the spare parts to an authorized service provider. On the Toshiba page, you can find a list of them.

  You must only contact them by phone, for example. Explain the situation and maybe they can send you a new cover.

  Welcome them

  Hello

  You need to buy a compatible player!
  Not all slim drives are compatible due to different master slave / parameters c - salt!

  Generally, your user manual must contain a list of compatible drives.
  If you have no user manual to use this device, then you can download it here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/-> support downloads & -> Toshiba operating manual

  Here, you have to choose Archive as first option!

  On the other hand, you could get in touch with a local ASP from Toshiba.
  Guys might provide a good information on the supported disc!

• Satellite P20 S203: how to change the graphics card memory

  My laptop has 32 MB graphics card I was wondering how I would improve my Vram to 64. What I do how would be, where would it be and what I have to install?

  Thank you

  To my knowledge, the Satellite P20 S203 was delivered with a nVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 32 MB of video ram. But this isn't a shared memory graphics card!
  In this case, you cannot change the settings of video ram.

  In addition he s is not possible to upgrade or replace the graphics card. Unfortunately, there is nothing to see ;(

• Satellite P20 S203: update BIOS after version 1.70

  Hello! I have a Satellite P20 - S203 BIOS is Ver1.70, published on 20/11/2003. I think there pretty outdated now, but there has been no new versions for years and I think that this great computer, despite the old, should be more supported. What I don't understand is why they made an exit for the PSP23E and not for the PSP20E, that make the differences that they should deserve to be updated bios different?

  Does anyone of you know about BIOS versions after 1.70 which allow the laptop to boot from SD cards or removable media? And that the problems of the management of multiple USB devices?
  Thank you

  Hello

  I use P20 over two years, without any update of the BIOS. If your device works well I recommend you to leave. Boot from the SD card is not possible and update the BIOS will not allow this.

  What problem do you have with the USB devices?

• Satellite P20 S203 does not recognize my additional 1 GB memory

  Hi all

  My computer (Satellite P20 S203) does not recognize my second Bank of memory (1 GB). I have two banks of memory of 1 GB installed. BIOS reports only 1 GB, Windows reports that 1 GB and my Linux so he says only 1 GB of memory. I removed each Bank of memory and restarted the computer successfully in each of the two slots, No Problem, but when the two banks of memory are inserted, it always uses only 1 GB. My BIOS is on version 2.10:

  BIOS is the PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.0

  I know it's an old computer (about 10 years), but what could cause such a problem?

  Thanks a lot for any advice or suggestions!

  Kind regards
  Andy

  Hi fuegi_1,

  The upgrade modules, bought exactly?

  To me it sounds like that it s a compatibility problem or your computer laptop doesn't support 2 GB.

  If you use two memory modules, you must only use two modules of the same production.

• Satellite P20 S203 stops suddenly

  Hello

  In the last month my Satellite P20 S203 does so well, and unfortunately it seems that the problem is a hardware one (but I'm not sure, and that's why I'm writing here)

  The computer just stops suddenly (it happened 2 or 3 times in the last 30 days); every time it happened I was on the web on Firefox, but I'm sure that has nothing to do with it, and I'm also 99% sure that this is not a virus, malware or something like that, cause I formatted there are 3 months and nothing else behave in a strange way, the computer is slow or something like that.

  The last two options are that the question can be of a physical nature, or a software (as a conflict between the operating system and installed programs); I'm more to the first, but I do not know and I need assistance to find out... What should I do?

  In addition, when it stops suddenly, it won't turn with the first try.
  He needs like 10 or 20 times to open like an old car that won't start; the first, say, 5 times I try to turn it on, it appears only the toshiba logo.
  It then passes through a screen, I can not read because it goes too fast.

  Then a black screen, then it turns off again.
  With the next try that it goes a bit further, as it displays the windows logo, but as this image is fading, it stops halfway through the fading process, resulting in a darker windows logo, as it is too difficult for her to load the OS!

  But then it turns off again!

  Then after a few other attempts it finally loads windows.

  Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

  Hello

  Maybe the laptop stops due to a higher internal temperature.
  High temperature leads to an overheating of the questions and the laptop would be stops down automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.
  The other point is that the high temperature may affect the RAM modules.
  In this case the laptop computer may freeze or you will receive a Blue Screen Of Death.

  I had a similar problem in the past. About 6 years ago my first oldie started to overheat.
  I cleaned the cooling modules, but the questions again.
  Finally, I contacted the laptop technician in downtown, and he said that the thermal grease that is placed between the cooling module and the CPU must be renewed.

  He did, and it helped!

• Satellite P300 - 271 - how to replace the keyboard?

  Hello
  I have a Satellite P300 - 271 and there are a few damaged keys. I bought a new keyboard for this laptop.

  Is there a caraa how do I replace the keyboard?

  Greets, Benjamin

  Hi Benjamin,

  As far as I know that these manuals are not for the public. Technicians certified for laptop only can download these manuals. You can download the normal user manual that came with your laptop.

  A friend told me to replace the keyboard to remove the keyboard first, support but it s fixed by screws on the underside. After that, you can remove the keyboard but be careful with the cable.

  Disassembly of the laptop is a little tricky. If you n t have experience with that you should ask a technician for laptop help.

• Satellite P20 S203 internal bluetooth

  Hello

  I just checked under the modem Board in my P20 S203 and it is necessary to install an internal bluetooth card. It needs to connect to the motherboard via a ribbon cable as the module bluetooth for the M200 series. However, I can't find the exact reference for my computer anywhere...

  In addition, there are some P20 computers that already come with internal bluetooth installed. Reference that applies to my computer? I already have a bluetooth SD card 2 and I'm always afraid that I break or lose...

  Kind regards

  Hello

  I do not understand why you do not use your SD Bluetooth card. If you have problems with the small parts buy the cotyledon. :)

  Bluetooth PC Card (TDK) seems to be appropriate for your laptop. The information you will find under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Products > Options & Accessories > Communications. Part number is PX1086E-1PCC.

• I want to replace my keyboard dv7-6199us with a backlit keyboard standard?

  I need a backlit keyboard reference number.

  Can I replace my keyboard dv7-6199us with a backlit keyboard standard? I looked in the dv7 'Maintenance and Service of Guide' for the dv7 without success. I found the same keyboard without backlight. I noticed the backlit keyboards in dv7s made after mine, but I do not know how to find the part number for that keyboard.

  Thanks for your help.

  The only keyboard won't work. You need the motherboard on your machine a light CONNECTORS for the keyboard. I do not think that your computer has this type of motherboard you are looking for a good first montherboard.

• Re: Satellite A10-S100 - how to replace the keyboard?

  I need to replace the card key of my Satellite A10-S100.

  What are the steps I should follow? I have to unscrew all the screws in the back?

  Hi mate,

  You never exchanged a keyboard or any other part of the equipment of a laptop? Well, maybe you should ask a technician for laptop help

  I m not Satellite A10 owner but normally you remove the keyboard first (between the keyboard and display) bracket. Under the keyboard support, you will find a few screw now the keyboard. Remove them and then you can lift the keyboard but be Ume with the cable on the underside of the keyboard.

  Good luck! :)
