• Satellite Pro A200 PSAFCA: need driver Lan and screen for XP

  Hey

  Please help me!

  I just installed XP on my new satalite pro, but I had trouble with the drivers.
  For the moment, I installed most but from this site, I can't seem to find a driver that will help my network card, or my video NIVIDIA player...

  any suggestions would be very valuable

  The Satellite Pro A200 PSAFCA is unclear to me. I know the PSAE1, the PSAE4 and the PSAE7Satellite Pro A200. So could you please confirm your Pro A200 series?

  If you do not find only XP drivers on the Toshiba page I would recommend checking the LAN and graphics chip installed on the motherboard and use drivers XP from the manufacturing of the chip.

  If you need a graphic driver, I advise to use the drivers from the site www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop is equipped with an ATA-100 IDE / ATA-6 HARD drive controller.
  In this case, you will need to use the 2.5 IDE HARD drive.

  I know with certainty that this notebook would support 80 GB HDD, but generally a larger HARD drive should also be possible because the controller is able to manage the 48-bit LBA.
  The 48-bit LBA can handle hard drives of more than 120GB.

  In my opinion, you can try a 120 GB and also 160 GB HARD drive should be possible.

• Satellite Pro A200 (PSAF4A) - update CPU and chipset

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A200 (PSAF4A) with a processor Intel Celeron M 540 (1.86 GHz) and a Mobile Intel (r) 965 Express Chipset Family.
  I upgraded the RAM, but it's just not enough performance for me as its limited to 2 GB.
  I know that Toshiba will not admit it, but I've heard people have updated this type of processor before. I can't afford a new laptop altogether but will settle for upgrades I get.

  My questions are;

  Are there companies in New Zealand that can upgrade my processor and/or my Chipset?

  I also noticed that space to the second HDD has no media or in any case to add another HARD disk, is it because of my laptop or is it a manufacturing defect?

  Are there also companies who can add these mounts to my board so I can have a second HDD?

  First, the chipset is not extensible. It s soldered onto the motherboard and can't be exchanged. In addition, on the CPU upgrade, you should read this article that I founded in the area of the FAQ:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
  The point is that the new processor must be supported from the motherboard, BIOS and chipset and it is not so easy.

  Install a second HDD is not a problem if you have a second connector to HARD drive (I know SATA) in the second HARD drive Bay. I think some of the Satellite Pro A200 models were fitted with a second HDD and some other laptops are not. So if you have the connector in the Bay, you can install an additional HARD drive.

• How to get a product key, that I had a new hard drive installed in the computer shop and it seems that there is no key for windows 7

  Original title: window 7

  Hi can one tell me how to get a product key, that I had a new hard drive installed in the computer shop and it seems that there is no key for windows 7, I just brought Office 2016 and he did not finish the load down with the windows key 7.

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  Full version (retail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive, but less expensive full version

  OEM System Builder version:

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

  Hello

  Do you use the preinstalled Toshiba image?
  I ask because sometimes the BSOD can be caused by serious software problem. But to be honest, it looks like a hardware malfunction.
  In my view, the RAM modules could be affected

  I have a 6 year old using my laptop BSOD the BSOD appeared after several hours of use one I thought that it s a faulty RAM I replaced it, but the issue was not resolved finally I discovered that the temperature affected modules of RAM alone and the laptop froze and BSOD appeared
  Finally, I checked the grids of cooling and cleaned using compressed air jet that it helped

  But buddy note; This does not mean that your problem can be caused by high temperature. It s only a hypothesis, and in my opinion, a technician of the laptop should check the laptop to ensure that's exactly wrong.

  Good luck

• Satellite 230cx: Question about HARD drive, memory and CD recovery.

  Can someone tell me if I can get a recovery for a 230cx disk? And what is the max hard drive that I have and RAM.

  Thank you...

  Hello

  Well, it is a very old unit. I think that it s about 8 or 9 years.
  However, I found the information that this unit has an internal memory of 16 MB and it of possible to upgrade the memory for max 144 MB (16 + 128MB)
  Also, this unit has been delivered with a 1.37 GB HDD part Nr.: P000229560
  I don t think you will be able to use a big HDD like 10 GB. The BIOS couldn't t recognize the HARD drive. Sorry but there is no information on the maximum size of HARD drive.

  The recovery CD, you must order the Toshiba service partner.

• RAM fills and the computer crashes, the rendering stops

  When I made video, works some time and memory starts to become soiled and the computer freezes.

  OK... do a new project and import this clip problem ONLY... and try to export as. If it crashes, I would suggest transcoding which clip to another codec, probably Cineform 10-bit YUV, which would keep all the original quality and although larger, would probably be much easier on your platform to manage as the less compression and construction of compression take far less work to manage CPU.

  If the video works perfectly in the new project, there is something in the old project on this clip... somewhere in the cache, multimedia database files or even the file of the project, which is corrupt. Then, rebuild your project into a new project. Import goods and operate on it. Best wishes!

• Satellite Pro L300 29V - hard drive is dead

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300-29V only about 2 months, and suddenly the hard drive (very full) is apparently dead.

  Initially the laptop starts Windows correctly, but now the HD is not yet recognized in the BIOS. If it goes beyond the Toshiba splash screen, I get the thing PXE saying "a cable is unplugged. I tried to re-allocation of places the reader twice, but still nothing.

  It's really disturbing, because I had transferred recently practically my whole LIFE on it on other computers which many many many hours of musical recordings that I can't really afford to lose.

  I think I'll have to buy a HD dock and see if I can read and copy the data.

  Does anyone else have this problem? It is likely that the drive could have been erased?

  I should also mention that a day or two before this happened, my girlfriend was using etc. Open Mobile (Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word,) - computer I pressed the power button that normally makes hibernate - and when I turned it back, rather than resume where he left off, the computer started from zero and no work/windows were saved.

  I'm afraid that might be some stupid day, Avira, or on the Windows updates without end that has damaged something...

  EDIT: OK, I have a picture of the error I received before complete failure, but I can't download it here. Here is the text (on a blue screen):

  -----
  A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

  If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

  Check to make sure any new hardware or software is installed correctly.
  If it is a new installation, ask your hardware manufacturer or software, the windows updates, you might need.

  If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable the BIOS memory options such as implementing caching or shading. If you need to use safe Mote to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

  Hi mate,

  First of all, I must say that I have this Satellite L300 too. But I didn t have no problem, the HARD drive works fine for 1.5 years and I use this laptop for Internet and emails everyday. I m very satisfied.

  However, what do you hear now?

  I hope that you can copy your data to another device and you will need a new HARD drive for your Satellite Pro L300. That's fact!
  In addition, there are a few good programs that they can the recovery of data from faulty hard drives. Just search with Google, you will find some interesting links.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro M70 - what HARD drive can you recommend?

  I have Satellite Pro M70 and I have a 60GB HDD that I see what it s SATA 8 MB of buffer memory. The processor it s 1.73 GHz. I see that there is the Samsung typical 160 GB and the Western Digital Scorpio Blue 160 GB at the same price, which is better?

  And for only $ 11 more there's a Scorpio blue Western digital 320 with even 8 MB buffer than other 2. But I don t think so 320, that's a lot for Satellite Pro M70, and I have an external drive 2.5 "250 GB, data with this is not problem.

  What the best solution for this laptop? I don t want to burn now the phone LOL.

  Thank you

  Hello

  If your laptop is already equipped with SATA interface, you can use each HDD with SATA1 or SATA2 port on the new SATA interface there is no limit on the old standard IDE

  It s your choice what HARD drive you buy because I put t know your needs, but in my opinion it makes no difference which manufacturing you buy the HARD drive. All hard drives are similar and there is no significant difference (performance).
  I made good experiences with Western Digital and Hitachi hard drives.

  By the way: you can buy a HARD drive with 7200 rpm or 5400.rpm. Latter is faster but requires more power. In my opinion, this is useful if you often work with large files.

• Satellite Pro A120-128 - HARD drive upgrade

  Hello

  I'm seriously exhausted on HARD disk space and want to upgrade my HARD drive in my Satellite Pro A120 128. Is there a maximum size that I can update? This model takes SATA or IDE?
  Any suggestions on make & model disk HARD upgrade to?

  THX!

  Normally it should not be a problem to use a HARD drive this lager s like 137 GB because as much as I know there is no limit of capacity on SATA interface.
  But as said Akuma, test it before buying this drive.

  However, an IDE HDD does not fit in this notebook

• Satellite Pro U400-130 - hard drive Partition - help

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-130 mobile - cell PSU45E-005005EN

  Processor Intel Core 2 Duo (T8400) 2.26 GHz, the front side Bus speed: 1066 MHz, level 2: 3 MB Cache
  3072 MB (1024 + 2048 MB) DDR2 RAM
  250 GB hard drive
  Microsoft Windows Vista Business Edition

  What I've found, is that the hard drive is partitioned into two separate drives

  1. the drive C - 117 GB - hand player - all programs, user accounts and files of work / are saved on the C drive.
  2 drive E - 113 GB - A folder titled HDDRecovery (size 4.42 GB) nothing elese is on the E drive.
  3. This only totals to 230 GB, then where is the other 20 GB?

  I want to know/how is is:

  1. Why are we doing this way?
  2. What is the purpose of the file recovery Drive E and it does not require the space of 113 GB?

  3. If I increase the size of drive C to say 55GO and decrease the size of drive E?
  3.1 is it possible?
  3.2 what impact will?

  4. the drives C and E only total 230 GB so where is the other 20 GB?

  Can someone please help

  Thank you very much

  (1) the HARD disk is partitioned into 3 partitions and not 2! Go to the disk management utility and you will see that there is a hidden partition. This hidden partition is created by Vista. It contains the necessary backup files that are needed for the repair of the system, if something goes wrong with your operating system.

  (2) the second partition contains the record of recovery of HARD drive that allows you to retrieve the laptop without using recovery discs. But of course, you are able to create a recovery disk and it s highly recommended to create a recovery disk using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.

  3.1 I think that this could be possible, but before that you'd change any partition size I recommend the creation of the recovery disk because there is a high risk that after changing the size of partitions you drive HARD recovery option does not work.

  3.2) see point 3.1

  4.) I think the other hidden partition using this 20 GB. Also please note that 250GB are not really 250 GB 1 GB is not 1000MB but 1024MB.
  This means that the 250 GB HARD drive is not 250 000 MB but 238 418 MB
