• Satellite 1110-Z15: Question on a second drive HARD and WLan

  I have just accquired this notebook, is possible to install a second hard drive for backup purposes? and there at - it wireless card available, can I install it to the Internet etc.
  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  AFAIK there is no expansion to second HARD drive slot. In this case, you cannot install a second HDD but you can create a partition on your first HARD drive.
  You can use the second partition for a backup image or other important files.

  II have also verified the information on the existing wireless and the wireless card is not available on this device. In this case, you can use a wireless USB key or a PCMCIA wireless card.

• My Satellite P300 forget sometimes load the video driver

  My laptop (Satellite P300) sometimes "forget" to start to load the videodriver.
  If the resolution is by default in the Windows startup screen.
  No matter what version of Windows I have, all the drivers are up to date.

  When I restart for the most part, the problem is solved...

  To be honest I never heard of something like that. in recent years, my brother has P300. In the beginning he used with original Vista and 2 years its P300 works with Win7. No problem at all.

  I don't know which OS you are using now, but have you tried reinstalling the video driver (display)?
  I also hope that you are using driver on Toshiba download page.

• Problem adding a second drive to VM after P2V using Stand Alone inverter

  Hello

  Let me preface this with anguish and you say how much of a hassle it has been from the beginning.

  We owe to P2V a server having a 25gig main drive and a 8gig of secondary disk for data. We had to move the files a long distance with the help of FTP, so offers them to us in some regions, by ensuring that all files have reached their proper destination.

  We have the files downloaded in the SAN and much to my surprise, the second disc of data showed as a *-flat.vmdk file without header hard file. I opened the browser and the virtual machine added to the inventory, but couldn't turn on with the second disc attached. I removed the second disk of the virtual machine and it has started well. But now I have a car I can access.

  I would like to convert the *-file flat.vmdk to work hard file but I'm not sure how with my limited resources. I don't have the vSphere client to work with. I downloaded the RCLI for vSphere but I have to be honest, I'm not very good with scripts.

  I tried following this tutorial: http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1002511

  But the notes are asking me to use the console, which I do not have access with 4 ESXi and vSphere Client.

  Attached is the original .vmx file that was created during the P2V

  You will also find a screeshot of the files I work with that

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Welcome to the communities.

  You can run through to revive the P2V conversion and just select the second drive. It's probably the easiest get right.

• Satellite P300: Fingerprint software to upgrade your driver during each boot

  I have a Satellite P300 laptop.

  Any help would be thank you very much

  Hello Damo

  Maybe that my comment will be not so nice, but if you did the Microsoft updates and now the problem is why you ask for help on the forum of Toshiba. Before the updates from Microsoft, I check the list of available updates each time. Here you can see the Type of update. It can be recommended, important or NOT important.

  For me it is OK to install patches KBxxx but WHY install update to pre-installed software?
  It makes sense that something can go wrong. Laptop manufacturer has nothing to do with it and if you have any problem you have two possibilities: either you reuse own laptop with pre-installed software tested or send the request to Microsoft.

• HP Envy TouchSmart, m7 j-000dx: adding a second drive

  I want to add a second drive of my laptop HP Envy TouchSmart (17.3 ") since I was a lot of data on my current SSD.

  My question is that the computer will support the SSD and SSHD readers?

  Are there restrictions on the size of the disk (to 1, 2-4).

  I had my HP Envy since 7/2013 and am currently using Windows 10 (64-bit).   I've updated RAM 16 MB (max for this phone).  The material is otherwise original.

  It has been frustrating to look for information, if I can do it at all and, if so, what can I use for this second disc.  Thank you.

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  The laptop is essentially identical to the series of 17 t-j000xx want so that they share a textbook. I used to own a model 17 t - j029nr that would be about the same as yours. The laptop has 2 size hard disk bays 2.5 inches and there is a slot on the motherboard for a reader to the WSSD mSATA.

  This video shows how to add a second hard drive.

  The company that made the video, www.newmodeus.com also sells hardware, you need to add a second drive.

  http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&cPath=2_5&products_id=542

  I bought one of these and used to install a second hard drive in mine. It may be a mechanical drive an SSHD or a 2.5 inch SATA SSD. It can be of 7 mm or 9.5 mm thick and is limited in size only by what you can find on the market. I think that 2 TB is still the larger disk of 2.5 inch 9.5 mm there.

  The only complication is going to be if you do not have an mSATA 32 gig drive in the computer as it should be removed if you are running an SSD. Looks like you don't have a disc mSATA. Post back with more questions about it he gets the kind of technique and not need to go if this is not a problem for you.

• Adding a second drive to my Optiplex 755

  I bought an Optiplex 755 renovated a few months back that came with a floppy (really?). I decided to add a second drive, so I removed the disk and put a Seagate 750 GB drive in its place. I entered the program installation and active the drive, rebooted, went back into the Setup program to verify that the disc was recognized that it was. BUT now, whenever I restart the machine, I have the black screen with the following text:

  Replacing the HARD drive is not valid, continued use can lead to long-term reliability problems HDD please press that F1 in you want to continue.

  It also gives me the choice to press F1 to continue, F2 to enter setup or on F5 to run tests.

  I press F1 and it starts normally.

  My question is how or what I do to eliminate this black screen? Because if I restart and let the system is here and waiting forever.

  Thanks for your help.

  The DT, SFF, USFF systems REQUIRE specific Western Digital or SAMSUNG drive model. Replacing the HARD drive is not valid is specific to 745 and 755 SFF and ULTRA-COMPACT systems.

  The DT, SFF, USFF models will have a thermal message.  The model of the Tower does not care the drive Type.  This is due to "thermal considerations.

  

  Desktop Dell 755 is configured to reject anything but a hard drive Western Digital or Samsung, claiming that it is due to "thermal considerations.  This is for Desktop and SFF and ULTRA-COMPACT models.

• Re: Satellite L555 11 L: BIOS indicates the drive HARD is not installed, BOOT Manager said HDD

  Hello!

  I had problems with my Toshiba laptop.

  When I tried to boot my system after a regular stop it does not recognize the HARD drive more.
  BIOS indicates the drive HARD is not installed, the said BOOT Disk Manager failed.

  Tried the HARD drive to a desktop computer and it works fine. This is not a new HDD SATA is recognized.
  However, the boot sequence itself and other functions seem to be ok.

  Who is wrong?
  The laptop is 1.5 years old and didn't have any problems before.

  Any help is appreciated ;)

  Hello

  It seems that the HARD drive is damaged.
  In your case the drive HARD test would be recommended.

  Download the software called Drive Fitness Test. It the free tool that can be used for the test of HARD drive.
  If the HARD drive is not detected or you will get errors, then it means that you HARD drive needs to be replaced and OS need to be installed again.

• Satellite P300-1GK cannot find the display driver for ATI Radeon HD 4650 Win XP

  Hello

  I can't find the driver for my ATI Radeon mobility HD 4650. There is an error on the toshiba Web site download page.
  My laptop is a P300-1GK (PSPCCE). The drivers are for the 3650 etc... not for the 4650. Where can I find the right idea?

  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 graphics card
  VendorID: 0 x 1002
  DevideID: 0 x 9480

  Thank you

  Hello, Damien

  Sorry, but can you please tell me why this driver is not the right one? An error message or what?
  The same driver that Toshiba use for the Windows XP Home edition recovery image.

  Unfortunately my P300 is not with the ATI graphics card and I can't test it.

• Adding a second drive to a dv7-2180us

  I recently bought a new dv7-2180us to replace my older zv5000 of 5 years who has been/is having supply problems. I want to take the drive of the zv5000 and place as a 2nd hard drive in the new laptop (mainly because I don't want to have to fight to keep the old lit long enough to transfer files). Is it possible to do so, and if so do I need something more to mount the drive.

  Thanks for any help.

  Sabrina

  Not exactly. The drive is not compatible with the equipment of the new HP. (IDE connector old to a more recent IDE to Sata connector.)

  You could get an external enclosure and get this support, or you could get a cable adapter, like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812156015

  I recommend the latter, myself. I have one and it works fantastic for information on older hard drives. It does not have technical knowledge to use, but I think you could probably understand.

• Satellite P300 freezes for 2-3 seconds

  Hello

  I had this problem from the beginning. When I plug this laptop it had Vista on it. In the random time intervals the computer froze briefly, making a stuttering noise, if there is an audio output. I've tried everything. I installed a new vista on the computer, tried to update the bios new drivers, etc. Now I switched to win7 and I still have the same question.

  It is more quite as common, but it is always very anonying. I cannont see any link with the use of the CPU or RAM. Recently, I turned my laptop to the toshiba service, but they deny any hardware failure. In other threads, I read on a windows update. I have searched for it, but it has not been installed (Vista).

  Can you help me? DOES ANYONE HAVE AN IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?
  I'm getting desperate. I've never owned a PC that I had no problem with. That cannot be normal.

  Hello

  I've heard this can be resolved if you install Vista 64-bit.
  Can you please take this test for us and confirm this theory?
