Satellite P25 Style Bay TV tuner

I bought my laptop P25-S607 with Windows Media Edition in the United States and it was magic, now in England, I have a USB TV tuner, but it does not work through WME and is not the same thing so I'm looking for a tuner of PAL Bay lifestyle, but Toshiba Hugh Symons partners say that the PAL tuner can not work in a machine P25 , but this has never been tried. Notebookforums.com see the conversion of a 5205-s750 but mine is a tuner different (model PK31A000000).

Someone at - he bought a PAL tuner and it mounted on a P25? Everyone has a TV tuner for sale? Or y at - it someone close to Lancashire, who has a P20 521, that would allow me to try their TV tuner before buying at Hugh Symons.

Hello vanman

Unfortunately I can't give you information specific on Toshiba partners to the United Kingdom but some info on the TV tuner and Toshiba laptops. Yesterday I posted the same for any other user, but I would do it for you.

On the laptop preinstalled with Microsoft Windows Media Center Edition Toshiba TV feature does not work outside the country where the unit is purchased.

As far as I know that the TV Tuner is specific to the country in which the notebook is purchased. This is evident in the case of the PAL (European standard) versus NTSC (North American standard), but also includes deviations to the PAL standard that can be found in all of these countries that use it for their television shows.

The Microsoft Windows Media center Edition OS is only configured for use in the country in which the laptop was purchased. Similarly, foreign users who bring computers, portable foreigners in the other country will be unable to use the TV Tuner for the same reasons. Even exchange the TV Tuner for one that matches the country in which is used the laptop will not work.

Good luck!

  • Satellite P25 video i/o does not.

    My Satellite P25 provided with a card that's where would be a CD player. Its cable TV tuner works very well, but the problem is the other port on the card, which attaches to the (white, red, yellow) RCA cable. I don't know yet what it serves, but I tried it as an entrance and an exit, neither of which seems to have worked.

    So, does anyone know what is his function and how to use this function?

    Hello

    It seems that your laptop is an American model. Anyway, as far as I know TV tuner, you can put on the left side in place of the battery.

    If you have a problem with input/output please check in you re User's Guide how you can make the connection to your TV. There is no detailed description which cable, you can use. I don't know, but you have two ports (which depends on your model) S-video port and video on the port (white, red, yellow). Until you take connection, also check the standard TV. I think you have to use NTSC.

    If you have more problems let us know.

  • Satellite P25-S509 - RAM expansion

    I have a Satellite P25-S509/PSP20U-ILKF3V and I am looking for instructions on adding ram. The underside of the computer's installed ram 1 GB and am looking to add another GB of Ram. They told me that I have to remove the screen and lift the keyboard to go to the area of expansion on this laptop. This device has a max of 2 GB, can someone help me with this?

    Thanks, Dan

    Hi faccipointi,

    Usually the second RAM slot is placed on the underside that you already wrote and founded, but the first RAM slot should be under the keyboard. This means that you need to remove the keyboard to upgrade the RAM module.

    Can find you it?

  • Satellite P25-S507 - HARD drive replacement

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P25-S507, which more is under warranty and has begun to report S.M.A.R.T. errors.

    SmartMonitor reports a lot of questions especially marked as old age so I need to replace the disk. I was wondering if I can replace it with any standard 2.5 "ATA as an ATA-100 player. as the disk of 60 GB specification is ATA - 5.

    Any help appreciated.

    Maybe no one has replaced the HARD drive on this laptop because it s Autric series and is a European forum of Toshiba, and most of us have European workbooks

    But the P25 is very similar to the P20 series.
    The P20 supports an improved IDE (ATA-5) interface.

    Then you should be able to use IDE hard drives.

    If you want to use a faster disk (ATA-6 or later), then possibly the controller would have only allows the performance of ATA-5;
    ATA - 5 = Ultra DMA 66 = 4, = 6 MB/s UDMA-66 ;)

  • Is it allowed to use 1 GB + 256 MB of RAM in Satellite P25-s607

    I have a Satellite P25-s607, and I wanted to know the following:

    (1) if it is allowed to install only a single 1 GB stick of RAM next to a 256 MB stick? Do I lose any speed performance this versus 2 sticks of 1 GB (in assuming that I use less than 1 GB of RAM, most of the time)? It seems that there is a performance hit since this model supports dual-channel memory (according to crucial.com)

    (2) I guess that's the correct module (better) to use: [1 GB, 200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 | http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=3B53A794A5CA7304] with specs:
    # Module size: 1 GB
    # Package: 200 - pin SODIMM
    # Feature: DDR PC2700
    # File: DDR PC2700 CL = 2.5 unbuffered NON ECC DDR333 2.5V 128Meg x 64

    (3) is there a reason to install BIOS 2.10? It is listed under under P25-S607-associated toshiba support site, but the only change it says is: "Added support for the D1 Pentium 4 CPU stepping.

    (4) is it possible to install a better processor? I guess not...

    (5) what graphics card (it came with NVIDIAî Geforcea? ¢ of the FX Go5200 graphics controller; external video memory 64 MB DDR)? Also I guess not...

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    With regard to the number of question:

    (1) the laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM, and this is why you can use a 1 GB of RAM and a 256 MB module. But it of always better if you want to use identical memory modules. It is better for performance, but I doubt you will notice a performance boost.

    (2) Yes, you must use the 200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 modules

    (3) If your laptop runs then I put t problem see no reason for an update of the BIOS

    (4) usually it's s not advisable to upgrade the processor because of a superior heat dissipation and overheating due to better CPU performance

    (5) it is certainly not possible because the GPU is attached on the map

  • Drve DVD is not recognized in Windows - Satellite P25

    Hello
    IM the owner of the satellite p25 last night somehow got my pirate pc sience then im trying to reinstall my operating system
    but the main problem is that my bios recognize not my dvdr (uj - 830 b) in windows I can see, but I'm not going to see in bios, any ideas how can I boot from a dvd to reinstall my windows?

    Hello

    Why are you suggesting that the drive is not recognized in the BIOS?
    Have you tried different options to boot from the CD?

    Usually if you press the C key immediately after starting the laptop, you should be able to boot from the disc. In addition, you must change the boot order in the BIOS.

    Have you tried to boot from various records as the original CD of Windows?
    Maybe your first CD is corrupt and that's why the drive cannot start.

  • Compatible HDD for Satellite P25-607

    Hello
    I wanted to ask if Toshiba Satellite P25-607 can use:
    MK6022GAX
    MK6025GAS

    If the two are compatible - I would like your honest recommendation where to buy

    Thank you
    Gabriel

    Hello

    MK6022GAX MK6025GAS hard drives ATA-5 compliant and have 60 GB.
    As far as I know this device was delivered also with the 60 GB HDD ATA-5.
    I think that these drives should work on you laptop.

    But if you aren't 100% sure of other compatible parts, then you can ask the ASP in you country for support of the parties. Here you can order.

  • Need info on updating graphics card for Satellite P25 s507

    Can someone give me a list of a toshiba satellite p25 s-507-compatible graphics cards? for example, is a "nvidia geforce 6800 go" ultra compatible?
    10 x a lot

    I guess you want to know which graphics cards are compatible, because you want to upgrade the graphics card. Am I wrong?
    As you probably know, mobile technology is not the same as the desktop PC simply and it s is not possible to replace or change the graphics card.

    Especially chips are set on the map and it of not possible to improve it. Also the BIOS, chipset utilities and other application would not accept the new graphics card.

  • Re: Exchange of video card in Satellite P25

    Recently, I brought my Satellite P25 computer at best buy because the monitor showed green squares distributed across the entire screen. They said it was my video card and went on to say that I would need to buy a new computer because of the integration of the video card and the motherboard.

    I know that this computer is pretty old (by the standards of the computer) its 5 years, but I paid 3 grand for it. Does anyone know an alternative in addition to come out and be forced to buy another computer? Best Buy has added, all new Vista computer on it and its not backward compatible with my programs that run on XP.

    TX MrDee

    Hello

    I agree with Akuma. I saw often defective P20/P25 on eBay. People sell it because of the broken plastic or defective screen but the motherboard is Ok. I recommend checking out eBay from time to time and with a little luck, you'll find something for you.

    I had Satellite P20 and it's so nice for laptop.

  • Satellite P25-S520 - DVD player does not work properly

    Difficulty of DVD player or buy the external drive

    My DVD player does not work properly, in fact it can never work properly. Recently, I tried to back up my PC on a DVD using Norton 360. Norton did not recognize that the DVD was present. Then I tried to write a text file on a DVD and was a failure. DVD + R and DVD-R media were found to be (Maxwell 16 X).

    I could have probably lived with this however, I received a copy of Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10 on a CD and my Toshiba would not recognize it. I tried the CD in my laptop nearby and it was recognized.

    An attempt to update the driver has also fails.

    I was able to copy a CD of music last night so that at least works properly.

    Does anyone know how can I fix? The important part is to be able to load my new program.

    Research on some forums I found that other people have had problems with the Pioneer drive. If the drive can't be fixed, I'm not adverse to buying an external DVD drive. Unfortunately, where I live there is no brick and mortar stores selling external drives and I prefer to avoid the hassle of getting a drive online and discovering that it does not work with my Toshiba. Can someone suggest an external USB drive that will read and write CD and DVD and is certain to be compatible with my Toshiba?

    Thanks for any help,

    Satellite P25-S520
    PIONEER DVD - RW DVR-K12D
    Driver provider: Microsoft
    Driver date: 01/07/2001
    Driver version: 5.1.2535.0
    Digital signer: Microsoft Windows Publisher

    Any external USB CD/DVD drive will be compatible with your laptop.

    However, you won't be able to boot from CD (run recovery for example) If you are using an external drive.

    So, your best option would be to replace the internal drive with a Toshiba drive designed for the laptop. Call an ASP and request a quote.
