Satellite P300 giving "KRTOP is compressed" message at startup

Turn on my P300 today and I get the Toshiba screen, then black screen with a blinking cursor with the writing "KRTOP is compressed" above him. He told me to press CTRL-ALT-DEL to restart what I do, without result.
I looked in the start menus F2 and F 12, but have no idea what to do, to be honest.

Our disk backup HARD failure the other day that he's, so we have no backup to present either!

Any advice?

What operating system do you use?
When you start your notebook F8 press to display the advanced startup options. It work?
You can start a computer laptop in safe mode?

What is with the F2 and BIOS settings? You can enter the BIOS settings? If so the value for the default settings please.

Try a bit of everything and post comments.

  • Satellite P300 - 219 PSPCCE - what should be the optimal heat of CPU?

    Hello there;

    I use for my laptop Satellite P300-219 (PSPCCE) newly bought about a week now. When you type I can't help noticing, the place where I put my left hand, I want to say the empty space to the left of the touchpad, feels much too hot. I looked for the manual and I have learned that it is where the CPU.

    Then I searched for a way to measure the heat of CPU, and after having tested some programs with too many different measures, I led to believe that the 'CPUID hardware Manager"gives the best results, after you set the correct value TJUNCTION.

    Here are the steps I get today while typing this message:

    ACPI hardware monitor
    Temperature 0 45note ° C (112 ° F) [0xC6E] (THRM)

    Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo T6400 hardware monitor
    Temperature 0 56a ° C (° F 132a) 0 x [31] (Core #0)
    Temperature 1 54a ° C (° F 129a) 0 x [33] (Core #1).

    Monitor hardware ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650
    53A temperature 0 ° C (° F 127a) (GPU Core)

    Hardware Hitachi HTS543232L9S monitor
    Temperature 0 37â? Â ° C (98A? Â ° F) (0 x 25) (Assembly)

    From now you mind, windows taskbar indicates that I use roughly about 15 & 35% CPU. After a little use, I even though the CPU heats by a maximum of 69a ° C.

    The truth is, I don't know what to do with these readings, is my laptop which works very well, or he has problems? Could someone please tell me what should be the optimal level of heat for a P300, or where I can learn?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    In my opinion, everything is ok with your laptop, buddy and the temperatures are quite good. Don t be to worry about this!
    If your laptop could overheat, it would have to close or freeze immediately. If this isn't the case, everything is ok with the temperatures.

    What you can do is to change the cooling method in Windows power management. Here, you change between performance and battery optimized cooling.

    By the way: you should also clean your laptop at any time. I clean my laptop every 3-4 months using a jet of compressed air. This blows the dust from the cooling fans.

  • Cannot start from the CD in my Satellite P300-23F

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix the old laptop from my brother. It's a Toshiba satellite p300-23f. The laptop did not work well, so he bought another. I think he might have a problem with the HARD drive, but I'm not sure about this and want to try to format the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

    When I start from the disc HARD I have no problem, insiders of OS normally, and I can 'use' laptop. The problem is when I try to boot from the OS CD. I get this message "Media test failure, check cable". I know the CD works, because recently I have instaled the operating system with this CD on another computer. I know that the CD player (not sure if it is called like this, but I think you understand what I mean) also works very well, because I tried different CD and it worked.

    I've tried pressing F12 and boot from CD it and also tried to change the BIOS and put the CD in the first place, but it does not work.

    No idea what's going on? Is it possible to make it work?

    Stand by.
    When Windows is completely loaded, you can use the optical disk drive and it reads all CDs and DVDs?
    When you put your Windows Windows installation disc can see the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer?

    Maybe you can use the CD but not DVD. check it out please.

  • Satellite P300 - output HDMI does not connect to the model of TV Samsung LE32B450

    When I use the Toshiba "HDMI" out utility to connect my Satellite P300 - 19K to my Samsung LE35B450 TV, I get the message "it is only effective when the PC is connected to a TV set that supports HDMI control via the HDMI cable.

    Does anyone have a solution for this? My Samsung TV is newer and has 3 HDMI input jacks and the same result. Is there another driver from Toshiba not requiring this vibration control function? This seems hardly reasonable given that all I want to do is display & there is normally no 2 communication channels via a HDMI cable anyway.

    Thanks in advance for any help there.

    I m not 100% sure, but I think that in s manuals is described clearly that this tool is designed for use with Toshiba Regza TV. With other words, it is Toshiba specific function.

    If you want to have the photo on your standard procedure for TV use for this purpose connect the laptop to your TV using a HDMI cable, turn on the port HDMI (HDMI channel) on the TV and use the combination of keys FN + F5 to switch between laptop and TV.

    Toshiba
    LED power button fix

    Toshiba
    Satellite P300-h-13

    By Thom
    Wijtenburg

    First of all, I would like to
    say you that I came up with this correction, after a clean reinstall of the
    Vista. (I used the serial number of windows on the bottom of my laptop for)
    install, so it's the same license as the OEM of windows and therefore
    Tout_a_fait legal.) After the clean install and installation of all the
    the drivers listed on the site of toshiba LED power button (also
    known as the mute button) and the CDDVD butten (mediaplayer button)
    stopped working. After browsing around forums toshiba I found
    this case, I removed the support button utility that the mute button has acted as
    a mute button. Also the mediaplayer button worked fine. Reinstalled
    the utility support for the button and they have stopped working. After many
    toshiba calls (I think about 5-6 in one day) they opened a
    support ticket for me, because they (team support callcenter)
    could not find a solution. Following their advice, I did the
    next to try to make it work:

    * Don't have a system restore with the restore DVD.
    * Do you have an another clean install.
    * Install the drivers in various ways (alphabetically reversed by alphabetical order and order of collection DVD).
    * update my BIOS.
    * downloaded a 'new' version of value added package (which was the same thing I already had).
    * installed the VAP with and without technical support button utility, no changes.
    After doing everything
    This, they said that they did not know the cause of my problem (at the beginning
    they thought it was hardware related). They came with a possible
    anwer:

    "It is."
    possible that we removed some features of windows vista
    operating system so that our one utility for device drivers
    work. In addition, we do support the configuration, that we delivered
    When you bought the laptop. »

    Now of course, I have
    understand that. I waited allmost a week, no response. Neither
    by electronic mail, or by phone, so I decided to google more
    on the problem.

    After a certain
    some research on Toshiba forum and Googling I came across
    a thread that sayd I must first install the utility 'control '.
    and the button press. Unfortunately what it did not work.

    Then, all of a sudden
    Windows displays a message saying that I should install the TOSHIBA.
    "ACPI-based value-added general use and logical device driver.
    I clicked on the provided download link, and the VFR package was a newer version
    version of the support page for my laptop which is held. So I downloaded
    This PPV version 1.17 and installed it. After a reboot, the buttons
    still did not work. But at least I got the file HWSetup.exe, where I
    could turn the LED off. Look into the button holder utility, I have
    saw that there where buttons like "Toshiba Assist" which my
    the laptop model is not.

    Navigation
    through the toshiba forum I found a file named ButtonSettings.ini, in
    which I can manually configure special keys. After a google
    search on the name of the file, I found that all the buttons list
    in a registry key. I saw the "Dimmer" file using the button
    folder and clicked on it. Poof... lights went out. Click again,
    Poof... lights turn it back on. So I replaced the wrong button definitions
    with CDDVD and dimmer values. Saved my changes but is not a restart.
    Opens the support button utility and change the path of
    MediaPlayer (who was always there to a previous definition) to
    Dimmer.exe. checked to see if the button CDDVD pointed
    MediaPlayer and restarted. When everything has been started, I pushed on the
    button again and presto... MUTE lights off. Pushed again, poof...
    lights. Pressed the mediaplayer button and started to mediaplyer. I have
    has been very happy when everything worked.
    Now that you
    know the story, here's the fix.

    * Difficulty: *.
    * Download and install the new VAP from here: [http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/util_tvap_26084A.exe]
    * Choose Edit in the installation and make sure that everything is checked
    * do NOT restart after the installation.
    * Download the ini fix and the fixed registry
    * Uncompress its contents into your working folder.
    * Copy the ini into C:\Program Files\TOSHIBA\TBS (where C: is the drive of program files)
    * In this same folder, start the exe called TBSbtnSt.exe
    * do NOT restart, click on 'no' in the dialog box.
    * Double click on the registry key, and then click 'Yes' to add to the registry
    * Then open the button support utility by clicking Start-> Toshiba-> utilities-> Toshiba assist. Help go to optimilization and click support button tohiba
    * If the path or the description is disabled, fix, and then click Save. See also if the CD/DVD mediaplayer points.
    * Restart you computer now.
    * If everything is is well past your special buttons should work.

    * WARNING: *.

    It worked for
    me, with my Toshiba Satellite P300-h-13, edition windows Home premium 32-bit.
    It should work on any model of 6 buttons with the mediaplayer and the mute
    buttons. I am in no way responsible for any damage that may arise
    If the fix does not work correctly. There is absolutely no. GARUENTEE
    It will work for you. If the answer is Yes, he does, and if it's not it
    doesn't work.
