  Seems that there are problems with the files of GoBack.

  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!

• Satellite Pro M10 HDD Upgrade - how will work?

  Hello

  I have a question I have a Satellite Pro M10 (PS630E-G207W-GR) and I want to change the hard drive to a 120 GB + HARD drive so I called the Supporthotline because I need the Windows CD and they mean that would work with a new HARD drive, because the Bios does not the new HARD drive, and he was not told why. Now the question is, if it works with an update of the bios, or if maybe there is already a person here with a working 100 GB + HDD from the laptop.

  and sorry for my very bad English

  Hello

  If you are not satisfied with the answers provided by the support, you can also try to communicate with several independent services for hardware upgrade. As far as I know, they are able to manipulate the BIOS to work with hard disks are not supported. Maybe this solution is for you.

  At least on this forum, you can find topics where users of laptops repost on an improvement of HARD drive (more than 100 GB) successfully with older models as your M10. You can order 120 GB of HARD drive and try to use it. If this does not work you can send it back. To do this, you have about 14 days. Test 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?

• 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,

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

• Satellite Pro M10 attempted to upgrade processor

  Hello

  I tried to upgrade cpu original 400 fsb 1.4 mhz centrino centrino 1.6 mhz 1 MB cache 400 fsb cache 2 MB (SL7EG), it works but only the minimum frequency (+-670 Mhz), it remains each time to the lowest frequency even if a lot of work is invited to the cpu (tried a lot of cpu stress tools).

  I really don' t know how solve this problem... can someone help me please?

  Bios version 1.50, version of the firmware 83,72, 23/05/2003 date of the bios.
  Thanks for advantage

  NB: only in documents from toshiba, the CPU seems to be fully compatible with Satellite PRO M10

  Hey Buddy,

  Just a quick question: you know that upgrading the CPU is not supported by Toshiba?
  With other words, it means that no one can tell if another CPU works correctly, and if you can use the higher speed.

  I guess if you can use t as the higher speed, the CPU is not taken in charge and that s a limitation of the card motherboard/BIOS.

• How to Exchange card WLAN on Satellite Pro M10?

  Can I replace my card Wi - Fi, and how?

  Hello

  Usually, wireless network card is placed under the small cover on the bottom of the laptop side or under the keyboard. The Satellite Pro M10, it should be placed under the keyboard.

  Keyboard is on most of the portable computer models set with three small screws, but to view them, you must remove the plastic placed between the keyboard and the display piece. It should be removed very gently. If you have no experience I really don't know if you can do it alone. If you do not do so on the right track, you may damage the plastic cover.

  If you try do these alone be very gently. After removing the screws, remove the keyboard and check where is the WLAN card. When you find the card disconnect both wireless LAN cables (black and white) antenna of the wireless LAN card.
  At least open the left and right latches holding the wireless LAN Board and remove it.

  I hope that this brief description will help you.

  Good bye

• 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

• 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 PS630E does not start after upgrading CPU

  I tried to install a new processor for my Toshiba Satellite Pro M10-PS630E.
  He initially has a 1500, I tried to put a 1766.

  I follow the maintenance manual, later the computer change is not star upward.
  When I connet to power it show that the luminous power of orange/amber color and make 5 flashes, then 3 and then restart blinking.

  My question is "is it posible to do a reset of the bios parametrers" or "reset the CMOS?
  Is it possible to get it working again.

  Hello

  The flashing light means that it has detected a hardware problem on the motherboard!
  Perhaps you have used a wrong CPU and is not compatible.

  Perhaps the BIOS does not support this processor and therefore this flashing error code appears.

  What say you can't update the BIOS! First of all, that's not possible since only focused on the victory of BIOS is available for download. You must run the Windows operating system to update the BIOS.
  Secondly the update of the BIOS won't help you with this problem!

  You must use a CPU that is fully compatible!

• HDD upgrade on Satellite Pro M10

  Hello

  I want to exchange the hard drive of my Satellite Pro M10. Can someone tell me what drives can I use? On ebay, I found a disk HARD 160 GB fot this model, but in the manual they talked only about 30 GB, 40 GB or 60 GB HARD drive.

  Thanks for any help!

  Your old laptop IDE interface for the connection of HARD drive, so I think you can use max 120 GB HARD drive.
  It should be enough for this oldie? Do you agree with me?

• 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 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
