• Satellite Pro 2100: Question about upgrade HARD drive

  Hello
  ICH have a Satellite Pro 2100 with a capacity of 40 GB HDD. Now I want wo upgrate with a 100 GB or 120 GB HARD drive. Is it supported? Where is the upper limit of the capacity of support? Is there something I need to look out? Are there special attributes that am I looking for?

  prior to thank you for your support

  Hello

  It is very unlikely that the 100 or 120 GB HARD drive works.
  I guess that the BIOS will not recognize these hard disks.
  I don't officials documents found on the hard drives supported, but I think that the 60 GB HARD drive is the biggest HARD drive that works on the Satellite Pro 2100.

• Recovery on satellite Pro C660 - 2KM with new HARD drive with the restored recovery partition

  Hey people,
  I had a problem with a virus on this sat pro, so I decided to completely erase the hard drive to get rid of this virus. Before I did, I saved everything partiton D including the recovery path and after clearing course, I copied everything returns to a place (second partition).
  Now, try to recover and do not know how to do it. F11, F10 and F8 seems to not work. Do I need the recovery media created with recovery media creator or can I still use the recovery on the new partition D: path?
  Thanks for your help in advance,
  Stefan

  Unfortunately, recovery doesn't work on this path.
  What you need now is the recovery disk.
  In general the recovery image on the second partition is useless and you will not be able to start.

• Satellite Pro 2100 and new hard drive

  Hello

  I saw on another post that L0nestar has installed a Western Digital WD2500BEVE (250 GB, 5400 RPM) in a Pro 2100.
  The question I have is what the interface is SATA or EIDE? The original drive indicates it is a SATA interface, but the WD2500BEVE is an EIDE interface?

  Hope someone can clear this up for me.

  See you soon.

  AFAIK all older models of laptops have hard drives with interface EIDE. Satellite Pro 2100 comes with disk HARD Enhanced IDE (ATA-5).

  Good bye

• Update BIOS on Satellite Pro 2100

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro 2100 (model #: PS210E-0053R-EN) and recently bought two 256 sticks of RAM for it, which according to the manufacturer, are compatible. They do not work, and I have I'll return them, but before the company was asked to take certain measures, i.e. to retest them and also update the Bios. I have never updated a BIOS before and am a little worried about something bad, or choose the wrong update.

  No one knows who is right on the section of the site? I know there's a Satellite Pro 2100, but which is compatible with all the models of this laptop?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Satellite Pro 2100 comes with two different processors (cel or PIV) but the model number is the same (PS210E). This means that you can use the update of the BIOS for both models.

  I recommend you do traditional BIOS update using the floppy drive. As described on the page of the Toshiba BIOS update, it is very important that you refer to the Description of the Toshiba BIOS update before you continue.

• Need new driver NVIDIA for my Satellite Pro 2100

  Hello

  Anyone know if there is a newer version of the NVIDIA graphics driver that comes with the satellite pro 2100? I looked on the Toshiba downloads section and on the NVIDIA site, I have not had any look to find everything. They simply stopped updating this driver?

  Any help will be thank you very much and I do a search before posting, but haven't found anything.

  Thank you

  Hello Steve

  Satellite Pro 2100 is fairly old unit. It is about 6 years old. Graphics card is NVidia GeForce4 420Go with 16 MB of memory only. Now the question: do you really want that Toshiba should support unit of 6 years with the latest NVIDIA driver? Please don't be crazy on me, but I really don't understand what you expect.

  A more interesting question to me is: for what purpose you need new driver? You want to use with newer games, or maybe you some graphic problems watching movies DSVD?

• Satellite Pro 2100: TEAC CD drive problem - cannot access CDs

  Hey

  I got my Satellite Pro 2100 for another few years.
  So far it has worked well.
  However, now the cd player is always displayed the yellow light just after trying to load a cd, followed a quiet thump. This means that I can not access the content of the cd (audio or data).

  The drive is still recognized by Device Manager, and I'm told it works well - I know better however, it most certainly isn't! the drive will still appear in my computer, and I can always try and discover the contents of the cd inserted, which is always empty!

  Ant help or advice would be most appreciated, because I really want to re-preparation of the system!

  Hi Simon

  The satellite Pro 2100 is an oldie ;) and I guess that you pointed out the CD/DVD drive all the time long.
  I would not be surprised if this player is dead. For me, it looks like the end of the device.

  Until it must be said that I'm afraid you need to replace the CD/DVD drive with a new m.

• Satellite Pro 2100 - Exchange optical drive

  Hello!

  I m a proud owner of a Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100 (1.9 GH). Already done HDD Upgrade (as already said) of 250 GB and 512 MB RAM upgrade.
  Now, I want to upgrade the DVD-ROM in a DVD burner. I heard the fact, slimline drives are jumperset by the firmware, not the real riders.

  Can someone tell me weather I need to buy a "rider" master drive or a slave - drive "rider"? Or is it possible to replace the drive with a cable-select-disk?

  Toshiba-readers are always 'closed' to enter computers laptop toshiba? All the optics of toshiba notebooks readers bridge the same?
  Would be happy to receive some answers :-)

  L0nestar

  Hello Lonestar

  AFAIK all optical disk drives cannot be used with all portable models. There must be a difference with assignment of pins. Because of this, you must use only compatible disks. I have the same info as you. All readers are already "closed."

  I checked the user s manuals document. There are several compatible with your model of laptop sides, but none of them is DVD burner. It can be really hard to find the compatible DVD burner.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100. I have some problems when you access the Internet; When I start the Internet, there is no problem, but when MSN messenger start the laptop goes down and I have to turn off manually the laptop. This would be a kind of firewall?

  Last Sunday, this problem occurred when using Skype; But now the computer has completely collapsed. The system first asked "inserting a disc system. I didn't know what they meant, so I turned off the computer a few times manually to see if it would disappear.

  When I turn on the laptop, Windows will not start upward and the system asks a black screen "the password HARD drive". Does anyone know what this means and where I can find it? And means that my laptop is dead, or am I able to fix? Can someone help me?

  Hello

  I know, it's the HARD drive password cannot be deleted.
  If the HARD drive password has been activated and you don t know the password for the HARD drive, then you will not be able to use the HARD drive more. :(

• Help identify the Satellite Pro 2100 download driver

  I have a Satellite Pro (marked below as a PS210E-00C3G-EN and a P4 2000/256/30 G, 15XT, CDW, LW). I think it's a satellite Pro 2100, whatever.

  Problem I have is that when it comes to downloading the drivers, I can't find anything approaching this model of the selection process. I've searched the forums and there's not much on this machine otherwise than in this one, so I was hoping someone could help me identify this machine especially for driver downloads... Yes, guess who has reinstalled Windows XP without checking I had all the specific stuff Toshiba tucked away first?

  For now, I have a load of things works without drivers, and it is not at all optimal...

  Thanks in advance

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100 and I have a problem with the memory upgrade.
  My notebook of startup only if a plug-in module to a ddr, but if I insert the two modules IN CC led orange flashing start when I try to turn on the pc. The stop led not blinking unless I take out the battery and the dc adapter.

• With a Satellite Pro 2100 wireless network connection

  Even though my work laptop has a switch (power) wireless and DIRECTED on the side (under the floppy drive), it does seem to pick up a wireless connection, or have wireless options on the corresponding section of the control panel.

  Is it a hardware problem (that is to say he is ready wireless, but has not installed) or a Windows problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The WiFi card is optional on the Satellite Pro 2100.
  In this case, it is possible that your device has all switches but no card WLan.
  I recommend you to check the Device Manager. There you should find the WiFi card network card is installed.
