• Satellite Pro M10 displays the characters currupt at startup

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 that collapsed. When the system boots, the Toshiba logo seems to have a few points here and there. When displaying messages on the screen during startup, the characters seem corropted. For example, the message "Insert system disk", I and T of the insertion of the word seems to be half upper ASCII characters. The system S is the "less than or equal to sign." and the k of the scratch disk is {.} I already did the following:

  -tried to start with one of my two memory card and I tried the two memory cards.
  -swapped my memory card.
  -reloaded windows and Linux

  I have dropped it once but worked OK for a month after I dropped it. I deleted the operating system, but now seems to have problems to load a CD operatig system (CD works OK). Anyone have an idea what is wrong?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You suggested that the cell phone dropped twice.
  Well, you can try to connect the external monitor to the laptop to see if it s a screen failure or malfunction of the graphics card.

  You have problems with the installation of the OS? Maybe there's something wrong with the disk and the HARD disk. But maybe only loses connection is responsible for the problems. Check the pins.

  It is possible that the screen and other devices was damage due to falling down.

• 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

• I can't access all the settings BIOS with Satellite Pro M10

  Hello, I have a little problem with my satellite pro m10.
  When I press the button 'on', I see the toshiba logo. (normal)
  I want to get into the bios, I push the button "esc". Now, I see the message "check system. Then press [F1]. So, I push the F1 button.
  Now I can see "password ='"
  I push the button directly enter, and I have access to the bios. But my problem is that I can only change the date/time, password and the hard drive password.
  I can't access to other environments, such as boot priority, show, another.

  In the beginning, I think it's the fault of password, but I try to change it and I have no results.

  Please help me.

  Have you tested it? If this is not the case, check it.

• Help for Satellite Pro M10 RTC CMOS battery replacement

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 PS630E-G206C-FR
  Removing the main battery causes a failure message from RTC battery from the beginning to the top and loss of CMOS date/time.
  I tried to charge my main battery in full and then leave the machine in charge while it is turned on (I said it is a method for the CMOS battery)-without any result.
  .
  My questions: do I have to replace the RTC battery (ie: is it refillable welded or a CR2032 battery shows or similar).
  If a specific type, the best source?
  And also, where it is (I'm comfortable with disassemble my laptop having replaced the LCD cable already)
  Thank you
  David

  Hi David

  Do you need help? What you mean exactly, step by step disassembly procedure? Maintenance manuals are not public documents and I'm really interested if anyone can offer assistance to you.

  When you want to swap the portable RTC battery almost entire must be dismantled. Believe me that is not the procedure of 10 steps and to do something like this, you need the disassembly instructions. I recommend you to check how it will be service charges because that when they disassemble the laptop they can clean at the same time and the laptop will be as good as new.

  If you want to do it yourself, it is very important to use authorized by Toshiba replacement batteries or real. Battery wrong installation may cause a battery explosion, or other damage.

  Please be careful about this.

• How to remove the password of BIOS on Satellite Pro M10

  Hi guys,.

  I searched all over the web to find an answer, but has no success. So I really hope one of you can help out me.

  I have a very old Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 with 512 MB in it. The laptop is protected by a BIOS password that I know. However, the problem is that I want to remove the password of BIOS completely. I know this isn't a big deal, but I find it annoying to type the BIOS password over and over again. Mostly because I am preparing this old lady for my oldest daughter. Furthermore, I just installed Windows 7 and it works well, but I have all the original software Toshiba, for example the HW configuration utility. I expect the download somewhere on the net, but unfortunately this is not as simple as that.

  Any help is appreciated!

  Thank you

  Jeroen

  Hey Buddy,

  It is easy to remove the BIOS password. Follow the instructions posted by Al - eX.
  As new password just enter anything and then the password is removed.

  I m wondering that you have installed Windows 7 on Satellite Pro M10. It is a very old book, and in my opinion Windows XP would be the best choice.
  In addition there are no downloads available for this model and Windows 7 on Toshiba page

• Satellite Pro M10: image on the screen is very dark

  I have a portable Satellite Pro M10, which has a black screen, i.e. the backlight does not work. There is an image on the screen, but it is very dark. When you connect an external monitor, I get a normal picture on this screen.

  Information from other messages here, I conclude that there is a problem with the backlight of the lcd screen or the inverter. I checked all connections, but it does not solve the problem. If I bring the laptop to a service center how much it will cost about for repair? The thing is 2-3 years, so if it is very expensive I could better get a new laptop.

  I'm sure I'll be able to change the inverter Board myself, but how am I going to be able to determine that the inverter is the problem? How to get a new inverter? Is anyone of you know the number of good product?

  My Pro M10 itself has PS630E-G205Z-OF product number.

  Hello

  I agree with Tobi. You sounds description as a faulty FL inverter.
  This part is placed behind the LCD screen under the lid.
  As mentioned this part isn t very expensive and you could order the partner of Toshiba service in your country. But be aware that if you have no experience of replacement if you ask technicians for assistance.

• Satellite Pro M10: yellow (!) near the VGA controller

  Hi all

  When I start my computer I get a yellow exclamation at the bottom right saying hardware not found: VGA (video controller).

  The computer works fine, but won't play videos.

  I looked through the Toshiba drivers, using search terms "VGA", "video controller" and "Graphics", does not. I installed a driver "chip set", but that has no effect.

  My system is:

  Toshiba Satellite Pro M10
  Windows XP
  Service Pack 2
  Pentium clocked at 1.3 GHz
  I also have a nVIDIA sticker on my laptop that I find to do with the video play stuff

  Any help would be greatly appreciated; This driver to install and where to find it.

• Need help to install the new hard drive in Satellite Pro M10

  Hi all

  My hard drive died in my M10 Pro Satellite so I decided to adapt to another.
  It fits very well in the caddy, but just does not want to slot into place correctly as something seems to be stopped.
  The M10 only accepts a certain brand/model?
  Also, nobody knows this as the largest capacity M10 will accept?
  Thank you very much.

  Concerning
  J

  As much as I know should not be problem at all. Take the old and the new HARD drive and compare the connectors. I hope that they are the same. I can only imagine that the new HD is not placed correctly in the HARD drive bracket. Make sure that the new is placed as an old man after his retirement from the laptop.

  As for max capacity of HARD drive, there is no precise information and we can only speculate on this. Try to use the search option on this forum. Maybe someone already talked to upgrade the HDD on Sam/Satellite Pro M10.

  The fact is that Satellite Pro comes with 30, 40 and 60 GB hard drives. How many GB does your new HARD drive?

• Satellite Pro M10 - horizontal lines on the screen in different areas

  Hi all

  I hope someone can help.
  My Satellite Pro M10 seems to suffer a display problem where I have horizontal lines on the screen in different areas.
  It would be well for 10 minutes and when the laptop seems to warm up this problem begins, then shortly after
  The laptop would crash and enter in a resolution of 800 x 600 16 colors or sometimes freeze.

  Graphic drivers have been resettled, and even a new installation of Windows XP from the recovery CD does not help.
  A reboot doesn't solve what the same thing happens again and after one minute of use, so I thought it might be a video or cooling problem.
  I changed the video card I had a spare part of my last motherboard hoping this would solve the problems, but the problem persists.
  Perhaps a cooling problem? Or problems of motherboard?
  The motherboard has been replaced twice, hoping that this isn't another mobo problem.

  Any advice would be great.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I m not 100% sure but to me it looks a bit like an overheating problem
  Maybe the graphics card may not be properly cooled after a certain period of time and that's why these strange horizontal lines appear on the screen.

  I wonder how you were able to replace the graphics chip on the motherboard?  :|
  If I m not wrong not the chip is fixed and the replacement is very easy and difficult

  It of always difficult to say what's maybe wrong without running several diagnostic tests in most cases this problem may be related to the defective chip or motherboard and so the following should be checked

  Sorry, but that's all I can suggest.

  Best regards from my friend

• Satellite Pro M10 Hibernate - error message "the file is not found.

  I have the Satellite Pro M10. I have problem in the power of Eve v6.00.04. When I want to activate the Hibernate mode it give a massage: * the file is not found. Please confirm the name of the specified file *.

  I can't use the hibernation mode. I tried to uninstall the Toshiba power saver and install again but the massage even come. If anyone has experienced the same problem and have a solution? Please advice

  When you active hibernating the operating system creates a file named hiberfil.sys in the root of your system drive.
  Of course, this file is missing in your installation.
  You can activate and disable hibernation in the system control-> power options.
  Disable hibernation, restart and enable again. Is there an error message? Maybe your C drive has insufficient free space?
  The size of the hibernation file is different from your main memory size.

  Hello

  Try to boot in safe mode and remove the Norton System works from your laptop ;)
  If this does not help, you will need to recover the laptop with the recovery CD Toshiba delivered!

  Also I recommend to visit the Symantec support site and to check the solutions to the problem with the Norton System Works programs

• Need help to remove the hard drive from a Satellite Pro M10

  Hi, a good will would point me in the right direction. I am trying to remove the HD from a satellite pro M10.
  I discovered the net without success.

  A diagram with being usefully etc.

  kind regards J

  Hello

  I can't give you a diagram or something, but I can give an indication to take a look on the front left side of your machine. On this corner of the left side under the volume control is a small blanket where the HARD drive is in. You need only to unscrew the 2 screws that are accessible when you turn on your machine and and look at the bottom of your machine. Do you know what I mean?

  When you remove these 2 screws, you need to remove the HARD drive by taking some screwdriver flat-blade and paste between the disc cover and HARD case. Then carefully remove the cover of the HARD drive and you can recover the HARD drive with the cover and exchange it.

  Voila, your hard drive West. It s is not difficult at all.

  But if you still have some questions then request.

• Problem with the modem after reloading XP on Satellite Pro M10

  I recently rebooted XP on my Pro M10 and now I get the message in the Modem Properties: Diagnostics: Query Modem - "the port that the modem is attached could not be opened. This is perhaps due to a hardware conflict. Check the Device Manager to verify that all devices are functional. As far as I know, the device displays the modem (COM3) Manager works OK. But it's not!
  Can anyone help? Thank you.

  Hello
  Before starting the discussion on the modem can you please be more specific with the term reloaded? You reinstall the unit using the recovery CD or Microsoft full version CD?
  It is very important because after the installation of the recovery CD, it should work properly because the image of Toshiba includes the correct driver for the modem. Otherwise, you should try to reinstall the modem using the right of the page to download CD Tools or Toshiba driver.

• Re: Satellite Pro M10 - strange Boot problem

  Hello.

  My Satellite Pro M10 has developed a strange problem. It will power with its installed hard drive.

  The yellow light beside of the plug symbol starts flashing. When there is no hard drive not connected, or another hard drive from another trendy laptop it starts fine?

  Please help, thanks in advance,

  Destro

  I don't know how to help you. HARD drive changes and everything will be ok.

  Is - this original hard drive that you got with your laptop?
