  I have a Satellite Pro L300 - 152 unit, which is out of warranty.
  I have a bad power connector, it has been pushed back and be dislodged from his seat or brocken cradel is within the computer.

  I am trying to remove the back to see if the power connector can be repaired or remains in its cradle.
  I removed all the screws and all devices, but can not get it off the computer.

  There seems to be something with the keyboard, which I took.

  Can you help me?

  To fix the power connector the whole notebook must be disassembled and you must have access to the motherboard. Disassembly procedure is not complicated if you have maintenance manuals and instructions.
  To have full access to the motherboard, you must remove all the screws from the underside and also all the screws under the keyboard. You will then be able to separate the notebooks and disassemble the upper.

  Tell me exactly what you have removed so far?

• Upgrade CPU of my Satellite Pro L300-152

  Hello

  my laptop is a:

  Toshiba Satellite Pro L300-152
  Model no. PSLB1E-01R015EN
  Celeron 560 2.13 GHz

  Can someone tell me what CPU I can pass safely, I use it in a cool environment and care about a few 100 mhz more of her.

  Thank you for your support

  Before you start to discuss CPU upgrade, check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  My personal opinion is that upgrading the CPU won't help much and you will not realize a difference in performance for laptop. In my opinion need more RAM or SSD better and faster. This better and better performance some CPU with 100 mhz dating more than one.

• Satellite Pro L300-152 - unable to connect to TV, projector or a external monitor

  Hello
  Peuvent some please help?

  I bought a Satellite Pro L300-152, model without PSLB1E-01R015EN with Vista 32 bit a few months ago to replace an old Toshiba laptop not.

  The problem I have is that I can't connect external devices such as TV, projector, or a monitor.
  I used another laptop in the past with my TV and projector and have had no problems at all. I connected via the VGA port, as it is the only port with the exception of USB. Using a VGA cable, I tried all the settings that I have used in the past, but with no joy.
  I did the setting in the display settings and the FN + F5, but nothing comes up on the external screens except no signal.

  I tried to solve this problem for months and need help, please.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I want to say clearly that portable computers technology design is not the same as on the desktop and if you have a good experience with desktop computers, you'll know that upgrading the graphics cards is not so problematic, but on laptops, the situation is very different.

  Laptops design and construction doesn't allow such flexibility for upgrades, upgrading the graphics card is not possible.

• Is it possible to display an image full screen; in other words, how to switch all the toolbars - including the status bar and the task bar?

  I found a few larger images (986 x 1024 and 2420 x 2514) I'd like to see on the entire screen. Is there a way to do this by enabling / disabling (then restore it later) of all toolbars - including the status bar and the task bar? Or is there an FF extension that will make perhaps even easier?

  Press F11 or select "full screen" in the menu. (If there is still floating toolbars around after that, do a right-click on the toolbar and remove the checkbox.)

• Satellite Pro L300 - use of the power cable between the countries

  I'm buying a Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro L300 T4200 everything here in New Zealand, where I will be staying for the next six months. However, I'm heading back to Alaska (United States) in April.

  Someone could answer my concerns about the use of power cables and to buy once back in the States. for the most part is it safe to use a USA power cable in this laptop bought NZ without breaking something to bits?

  When you return to the States, I think that you must travel kit adapter power supply only.
  I recommend you consult your dealer and gathering information that it will be the best for you.

• Satellite Pro L300 - cannot use the 4 GB memory full

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 model: PSLBDE-003005AR

  I upgrade my memory to 4 GB using 2x2gb PC2-5300 667 Mhz memory. When I installed the memory and I turn on my laptop the installation always pop up. When I removed the 2 GB of memory to do only 2 GB I spend on my laptop and it works.

  I am using windows Vista premium 32-bit edition. I wonder why I do not work with 4 GB of memory. I installed the memory correctly, but it does not work to 4 GB.

  > Laptop is a Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1A - 01 L 019. Lists of the Toshiba Site the maximum memory 2 GB spec however sheets provided with the laptop shows a maximum of 4 GB of RAM.

  This chipset uses this device?
  There are different L300 with different chipsets and different hardware components.
  Some L300 would be able to support 4 GB and some are limited to 2 GB of RAM.

  So if Toshiba says 2 GB are max so it's good and you will not be able to use 4 GB of RAM.

• Satellite Pro M10 overheating and the fan runs loud

  I have a Satellite Pro M10 and when it is the fan on the power grid comes shortly after the start and makes a horrible noise - this has only started happening recently. I tried spraying compressed air (dust) to the air outlet and still have the same problem.

  Other postings say to clean the fan, but I don't know how to access it. I'm worried about overheating problems I work in Africa much of the time and the laptop is subject to hot temperatures.

  Hi Hannah,

  The easy way to clear the dust and debris from the cooling system is to use a vacuum cleaner hose placed on the admission air grids that are usually in the bottom of the laptop (covered by a grid). For maximum effect, I usually place a rag around the pipe to maximize the flow of air through the fans.

  This causes air suction through the radiator CPU the wrong way and ensures that all debris are not pulled into the heatsink, but are removed by fans. You can see a ball of down under the grates that you need to try to clear little by little.

  This technique will not void your warranty since no disassembly of the unit is necessary.

  Kind regards

• Satellite Pro L300 restarts once the update the BIOS of the TOSHIBA Site

  After an update of the BIOS under windows, my system restarts more. F2, F8 keys are ineffective to turn on time. The screen stays black and there is only some permanent access to the CD/DVD drive.

  Can someone explain to me what happened and how to fix if possible? Should I reflash the BIOS or something else.

  Thank you very much

  In my opinion, something went wrong during the update and the module ROM was not properly flashed.
  According to the people here in the forum, only a Toshiba service agent can help you.

  But I found an interesting thread here in the forum that may be useful.

• Satellite Pro L300 - 152 Driver Update problems.

  Hi, I'm new to all this and just about managed to find my way to this Web site. I bought a Satellite as above new brand of PC World Business yesterday 22/10/08.
  I had horrible problems to install several updates of Windows that I finally had to install one by one with a re-boot after each update 'Important '.

  I took the laptop with Toshiba and now I'm using Tempro I 5 alerts telling me to install updates various...

  _3 updates the firmware and update of face recognition 1. _ I extracted the zip file and run the progs and get a message saying "this firmware is not compatible with the selected drive. Contact the manufacturer of your system for more information on formware updates available for this drive "."

  1 updating bios which finally ran with Windows Help and then gave the message «ROM date is not older than the date of the BIOS...» "whatever that means.

  I just bought a laptop, I didn't volunteer to become a technical wizz.
  It feels like I'm doing a work of Toshiba troubleshooting here, and I don't know what I'm doing. Can someone help me?
  Thanks, Guy

  Hey Buddy

  To be honest I don t understand why you react so panicly

  You have a laptop that has a pre-installed Vista OS.
  The fact is that this OS Vista was preinstalled on your laptop computer and for several days/weeks, Microsoft has published a large number of updates and so Vista downloaded and installed updates. But don t wonder about other updates. From time to time you will receive these patches! This is a common behavior of the OS.

  With regard to the Tempro tool;
  This tool informs you about new drivers available, tools or utilities on the Toshiba page.
  To be honest I wouldn t use it. Usually, it's really not important what and when a pilot a tool was released if your laptop runs without problem. I'm always this recommendation; never change a running system.

  Hope I could make a clarification.

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite Pro L300 - update after the BIOS, Windows will not start

  I updated the BIOS on my laptop to the latest version and now it does not start in Windows. I can get to the BIOS menu. I tried to restore the default values and saved the day, but he's just a blue screen with writing on whichIi do not have the time to read it before it tries to restart and continues to do the same.

  Any ideas anyone?

  see you soon

  Hi chaospunx,

  Which HDD mode did you use before the BIOS update? Perhaps this option, you need to change, then Windows will start up again.

  You can choose between the mode of access AHCI and Compatible HARD disk.
