  Hi Tommy

  I think electronic power on your laptop is completely confused. I recommend you contact the customer Service of your country partner. It is unclear to me that you can do something like the end user.

  Only thing you can do is to remove the battery and use the laptop with AC power and be happy that it works.

• Satellite Pro 2100 jumps down and now demand HARD drive password

  Hello world

  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?

  Thanks in advance!

  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. :(

• Satellite Pro 2100 is really really slow running

  I have a satellite pro 2100 I killed a friend.
  He said his brother gave him and that he had no idea what was wrong because he didn't have a chance to watch it.

  I put windows xp pro top and used the bottom of the laptop pro license key.

  but the laptop is really really slow.
  It may take up to 5 minutes for nothing I click to open up.

  the strange thing is the laptop works fine in safe mode, can open things like I should.

  but in normal windows mode, it slows down to a crawl and even crashes.

  I have trie all to my knowledge.
  I even uninstalled and turn off the graphics drive that I thought that he maybe, but he always does.

  I tried multiple copies different from xp pro and even tried a copy of vista, but still the same.

  He had 2 different lots of tried in ram, 2 sticks was new aswel. I tried 3 different hard drives and still the same.

  My thoughts are that the integrated graphics card is exhausted.

  can anyone else confirm this? Certainly this isn't a software issue because I tried a few different copies of xp and vista. IM about to bin it now.

  > anyone can confirm this?
  Don t think someone could confirm everything that is related to a malfunction of the equipment.
  Here in the forum, we can talk about problems and makers of disorders, but no one will be able to say with certainty what's going wrong here.

  First laptop computer is an oldie.
  The Mobile Intel Pentium 4 CPU, isn t a up to date CPU and in my opinion, that don't expect too much performance.

  I put t know how this camera supports memory but everything below 1 GB of Ram would be good enough to the smooth running of the laptop.

  However, given that the unit works much faster saving mode, I guess there must be a hardware related problem.

• Need to find the cmos on Satellite Pro 2100 battery

  I have a laptop that is not keep date/time settings and I need to identify the laptop to find the correct instructions to take apart.

  The brand is a Satellite Pro SP2100, model PS210E006P9-EN number, but I can't find this brand/model on the Toshiba site. The closest I can find is Satellite 2400-103, part number: PS240 - T 014, 1, that seems identical.

  I tried to use the identify tool of Toshiba to detect what is the laptop, but that fails to provide results.

  I also need to find out what food is for this unit as the current is defective and exposed wires.

  The adapter of current with her is PA3201U-1ACA, the problem is that this card has another card on the end to fit the power plug to the back of the laptop. The connector at the end of PA3201U is too thin to fit.

  Hello

  This laptop is very old and the name of this machine is: Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E

  > I have a laptop that is not keep date/time settings and I need to identify the laptop to find the correct instructions to take apart.

  Usually the CMOS battery can be charged. You must connect the power adapter and the laptop must be powered for about 12-14 hours.

• Satellite Pro 2100 two cables behind the screen

  Hi, first post so be gentle with me please.

  I have a Satellite Pro Satellite Pro 2100 and the hinges are shot, so I bought a 2100 piece to Exchange.
  Everything was ok except that I have two sons that I can't find a place to plug in. A black white and they are attached to the small square gold Ribbons that are glued to each top corner at the back of the screen. The other ends have little, but when I stripped the laptop they were in bulk and I do not see where they are going.

  However, the laptop works fine without them.
  Can anyone help please?

  All laptops with WLAN have this. WLAN antenna is placed behind the screen and these two wires must be connected to the WLAN antenna.

  If your laptop doesn't have WLAN card put just the cables aside and everything will be OK.

• Need administrator rights for the Intel on Satellite Pro 2100 speed step

  Hello
  I have a Satellite PRO 2100 (Pentium 4 1.9 GHz).
  I have a problem with the function of the Intel speed step, which reduces the speed of the processor at 1.2 GHz. But I have a problem: I can do this, if I use an administrator account...
  After starting, if I connect with a simple user account, the Intel speed step works... and the speed of the cpu remains at 1.9 GHz.
  So I would like to use this function with a simple user account, how do I do it please?

  Thanks for your help :)

  Hello

  As far as I know that this application is not shipped with the image of Toshiba and it s not made not part of the image.
  But I put t see any big problems. You will need to change your account administrator rights. In this case, you will need to ask someone the admin right to edit your account.

  The other possibility is to change the law for this software. There can be changes as by admin. What you can change in the Security tab in the program properties. Full control must be set to all.

  Then, it should be possible to use this application with your account.

• Can I get my satellite Pro 2100 high-speed USB 2.0?

  I have a new MP3 Jukebox that can operate at USB 2.0. Do anything to get my Satellite Pro 2100 to work at speed 2.0 that it currently only works with USB 1.1? Sorry, but I'm not very technical.
  Hope someone can advise me
  See you soon

  Hi Bob

  The best solution for you is to buy a PCMCIA USB 2.0 card. As far as I know there are cards with two or four USB ports. This card is not expensive and the installation is not complicated.

• Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100; battery (probably) problem

  About a year ago and a half year I bought the Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100. Every thing worked perfect up what a month ago, and then my adapter not workt more. With a multimeter I discovered it was broken, so I bought a new (from you guys)

  But 2 weeks later a new was also broken. Then I used my father's map (it has the same specifications) which merged in 1 week.

  What is going on? Where is the problem. I think it's my battery.

  Hello

  It seems that your adapter is damaged by the oscillation of voltage.

  I can't image the laptop that has the same voltage as the AC damaged HQ with a swing of voltage!

  IF you wish, you can contact a Toshiba Service partner. They can check the power supply, I have the laptop and HQ.

  Bye Bob

• A few questions regarding the hardware upgrade and the games on Satellite Pro 2100

  Hey,.

  I thought that posting this here because it's more about the lines for the games I could think on another topic.

  I'll get to the point... Basically, I bought a laptop from a guy that my friend knew. He barely used this laptop and didn't know anything about computers, and he tried to avoid as much as possible. So he got rid of this laptop for me for real cheap.

  Now I got it, I had expected either of two things with the laptop.

  (1) what I'll use it so I can sit in his bed and travel a little bit while having files, movies, music and internet access. (it wasn't my main idea)

  Or

  (2) it allows to play video games on it, or to update, so I have a better chance to do so.

  I was hoping to get for video games, mainly for my brother to use because his computer is lagging a lot while playing world of Warcraft. I was hoping that this notebook would give him a better experience for a while.

  But as I was installing the game on this, I noticed that the disk space is low, so I'm going to buy an external hard drive, so I can send files between the PC and the laptop, and I got an error message saying that the RAM was under "minimum requirements" for WoW.

  So I know that I got to level it with something big, but I know not what, so I'm not quite sure that this laptop will run the game at a decent rate. So I thought that I turn to a computer forum and ask.

  It's my laptop;
  [Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 45659 ie]

  This laptop will do the job don't you think?
  Or it will be better for simpler things, or less if I had the ram to 1gig?

  I don't know much on the laptop, and I'm not really willing to spend too much on fixing, if it's just a change of the ram, then it wouldn't cost much for than to upgrade around 1gig.

  Hello

  First of all, I must say that this notebook belongs to an older series laptop.
  It was equipped with the 1.8 Celeron CPU, 256 MB RAM, 20 GB or 30 GB HARD drive and a 16MB graphics card internal.

  What you can do is upgrade the RAM up to 1 GB (2 x 512 MB) and the HARD drive. But I think that the maximum size of HARD drive that would be recognized by the BIOS is 120 GB.
  I think that the laptop supports one IDE controller and it limited because of the 28-bit LBA HARD drive size.

  So finally, it is important to mention that you can not pass the graphics card because it s soldered onto the motherboard. Upgrading the CPU is not possible or very difficult.

  I come to the conclusion that you will not be able to play games of new generation on this machine. The hardware specs are maybe too low a few simple games would run on this laptop but I'm sure that other newer games will not run smoothly.

• Satellite Pro 2100: Yamaha its driver problem & screen is sometimes black

  Hi guys,.

  I have Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100, SP2100 model No: PS210E-005ES-EN.

  I am facing two different questions must solve individually.

  The first is the audio, after formatting install a new copy of windows XP Pro, installed all Toshiba drivers, all the sums 2008 pilots, selected according to the model No, each driver installed fine except for yamaha ac - xg wdm.

  Whenever I try to install I get only "driver not installed" at the end of the day, I tried loads of other drivers designed for ac - xg wdm. Without success, when I go to Device Manager I only see "unknown device" which is the sound card, I guess that...
  Also updated BIOS updated to the latest version...

  The other problem is that the laptop is unable to send the signal to the screen; sometimes completely dead except the green light before.
  Also, I noticed that when it is off the battery light stays on but slightly dim... have to remove the battery, Plug and unplug the unit to be able to operate... processor reinstalled, pasted with white heatsink, no obstruction stuff... etc...

• Satellite pro 2100 only works on battery.

  I have a Satellite Pro 2100.
  It works on a charged battery.
  The charger/power supply does not power the laptop, with or without current battery (charger/psu certainly work on an another SP2100 - charger/power supply is not the fault)
  I tried the battery in another SP2100 and it works find (so the battery isn't the fault).
  I checked the plug on the motherboard for the charger. (the joint is fine)
  A perculiar thing happens with the LED at the front.
  The battery is charged in, only the controller led lights (green, the extreme left LED) as if he's working out of the PSU.
  The charger/power supply does not have the LED lights up.

  Has anyone else had this defect?
  Can anyone help?

  Looks like that the motherboard (or power Board if it is) doesn't have.

  I bring it to an ASP and ask for a quote.
