Satellite Pro 480cdt - installation of Win98 after Replacement HDD

:| What a fight! I have a Satellite Pro 480cdt.
It came with no disk working...

I have now repackaged in floppy drive, and an external cdrom connected using an external enclosure.
I bought a HDD refurbished for the machine, it arises in the caddy, and now the machine is equipped with discs.

The HDD is empty, but I have a cdrom in windows 98, so put in the drive, the message "insert disk in the drive system, then press any key..." So I put the CD in and also to put a downloaded in the floppy drive boot disk.

He is now asking me to remove all the drives and media and press any key!
Magic! How to bypass it little or no budget! (I'm retired)

I think it's done... It seems that the backup disks 98 to my last computer was faulty, so all this happens for an it expert to sort... And if it does not, it goes on the bonfire!

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to start the recovery image installation. The data saved on unusable USB on this path. It must be the startup created by Toshiba recovery disc creator device
    You can only install recovery image using the recovery disk.

    just a spare hard drive was fitted by an expert, all drivers and update of the BIOS installed on the site of Toshiba, but my wireless network card does not work.

    I went into Device Manager and of what follows is listed under devices Details ld:

    Thank you

    Hello

    Sorry if I write this too late. :(

    He's old enough for laptop and I don't know with certainty what is the card inside, but all notebooks with wireless network inside card have a small stick of Wi - Fi at the bottom with number of WLAN card. Using this number in Google, you can identify the card.

    Anyway, there is not a lot of possibilities because on the Toshiba support page there are two WLAN drivers listed for your model of laptop. Try to install both of them. One of them must be good.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite Pro 480CDT does not start (even in BIOS)

    Hi all

    I just hand on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 480CDT

    I had to work with the original power supply (on an inverter plugged into my 12v cars I wasn't close to 240 v power outlet)

    It worked very well, it boots into Windows 98 and I played with a few programs (Media Player and defragmentation)

    I got it defragment for about 5 minutes, while charging via the car converter, however it froze and I had to hold the power button to restart.

    When I tried to next turn on the screen remains empty, the hard drive is not turn and there is only the power LED and battery LED that lights up.

    He let me press the function key that lights up the fn LED on top of the keyboard, but then after a few presses of lighting stops.

    I opened the case and concluded that there are two batteries of the bios, the look at where they are plugged into the main Board, there is green type of corosion on the pins, I removed the plugs (who might add when it is very difficult to remove because of the coros), I cleaned the plugs (male & female) with a pen of WD40 and plugged in I got a voltmeter on them and they demonstrate tension and also show higher voltage when the power supply for laptop is connected, then it means they are load or at least tension.

    After doing this I go up the laptop, but it still suffers from the same problem?

    Please what could someone help or give me a little advice? My next event is the power supply Board but wanted to get some ideals before hand.

    Thanks in advance.

    > after doing this I go up the laptop, but it suffers still from the same problem?

    His pity to hear that your baby dead :(
    But if we move to a diagnosis of material, I doubt someone here might be able to point in the right direction if his motherboard problem, it would be really difficult to solve this problem without using special tools, circuit diagram of motherboard and of course experience

    I think you should check the modules memory vivid faulty ram could affect the laptop everything is just speculation

  • Satellite Pro 480CDT does not start with mounted HARD disk?

    Hello
    I have tried several disks in my Satellite Pro 480CDT, but none of them starts. The screen stays black and the power led blinks orange (long, short, short, short, short, long, short, short). If I drive the machine past the on-screen "In Touch With tomorrow, TOSHIBA. He sees Windows CD-ROM or a floppy disk. I tried with 6 hard drives all below to 6 GB and AFAIK the work. I tried with another 480CDT a 220CS and a 2140CDS. Surely all hard drives and computers laptops have the same flaw? What I need to update BIOS or something as none of the drives are original for the machines.
    Help, please!
    Thank you

    John.

    Hi John

    I'm afraid of nothing that you can do everything alone. When the electronic power supply detects a power problem, it sends the hex code. In this case you should contact the technicians. They can read this code and will know what the problem is here.

    Just FYI: I discovered this disc HARD original for this unit has the P000244000 part number. Maybe it will help you get another HARD drive for testing.

    Sorry I can't tell you more info on this good old classic.

  • Satellite Pro C850 - WLAN call default after installing Win 7

    Hello

    I own a C850-1 gr (PSCBXE), which comes with Win8.

    Later I installed the drivers from toshiba support page in the following order:

    Hello

    Your order of installation of drivers contains the Intel WLan driver.
    But the laptop Satellite Pro C850-1 GR was equipped with the Realtek RTL8723AE WLan/BT combo card.

    I think that you need to uninstall the Realtek WLan driver and WLan Intel driver.
    In addition, you must pay attention to the functionality of BT.

    The card is compatible with the BT and you need to install the driver Package Realtek Bluetooth filter before installing the battery Toshiba BT.

    In addition, do not forget that this WLan adapter is enabled by using the FN + F12 (or just the F12)

    Finally and above all do not forget WHAT BIOS the dafault value

  • Satellite Pro C50-A-154 - battery after automatic update problems

    Hello world!

    First of all, I must apologize for my bad English, if it is not as good as be... after that, I could start to tell you all what happened to me in the last few weeks...

    I have an a C50-A-154 Toshiba Satellite Pro and I use it for stuff like watching youtube videos, listening to music, and do this kind of thing than a normal user.

    A few weeks ago a Toshiba Tempro Alert remember that there are software updates avaliables to download for my laptop, so I installed them, I normally unplug my battery when I have the power cord plugged in, so I didn't realize after a week after that my battery was not recognized as it should be for my toshiba.

    Initially, windows said that it is fully charged and no need to continue to load, so I unplugged the power cord and the laptop shutted down (with battery connected and therefore be charged to 100%).

    When I plugged it again the power supply cable, windows said that the battery was empty and told them, hip but not load...

    At the same time, a new toshiba update was released, this time was for the bios, if I have that it is probabbly fix the problem with the battery, so I updated the BIOS and windows says that the battery was full charged... I couldn't believe...!

    But the system always goes down when yo unplugg the AC cord, and now battery said once again that it is empty...

    Yesterday was a new update for the Bios, so I give another chance, but nothing has changed... I can't use the battery, and I have no warranty, so I don't know what to do...

    I read a lot of posts on battery of problems lately, in the forums of europe and US forums... maybe it's a software problem? Maybe toshiba boys don't have any idea about this problem?

    Thanks for your replies!

    Ruckmess

    Hello

    I think it might be a software related issue.
    In Device Manager, you will find the battery input compatible Micorsoft ACPI method. It belongs to the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface.

    I recommend you to uninstall the three topics that you might find in the battery area.

    Reboot the laptop. After restarting again, the system should install all devices removed once more.
    Usually, this should help to unravel the question in the case of its just system problem

    How did you notice this problem? You get an error message or something else?

    It's really hard to say why this happens, but first I would try to update the driver for the webcam. You can get the latest version on the Toshiba site:

    Install the latest version and try again.

    By the way: you run factory settings or you have installed your own version of Windows?
