Satellite Pro M30 - NVIDIA graphics controller problem
Hello everyone
I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 with a Nvidia GeForce FX graphics controller. ([Image of the motherboard | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC3.jpg])
My problem is when I turn on the PC and wait a few seconds red and white vertical stripes begins to appear on the LCD and it cannot go after the BIOS password screen. I can type the BIOS password but when I hit OK or button that ENTER the laptop freezes. ([See image 2 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC2.jpg])
In very rare occasions where the laptop was turned off for a long time, I listen to him on and he could overcome the BIOS password screen but freezes after a while: ([see Image 3 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC1.jpg])
I plugged it to an external monitor and nothing has changed.
I removed the inverter (responsible for the lightning of the LCD screen) and the problem is still there.
Always to blame the graphics chip from NVIDIA.
I read here that it is not possible to replace them because they are soldered to the motherboard. But I want to, where can I get a laptop NVIDIA graphics chip. They sell somewhere?
I have a friend who works in an electronics manufacturing company (SAGEM) and told me that they have the tools needed to replace any piece on any Board of Directors.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Hello, my friend
I agree with you. It must be a faulty graphics card. I put t believe you can buy a graphics chip separately but you can buy mainboard used laptop on eBay. In my view, Exchange Board is no problem for you.

Satellite Pro M30 graphics works not when the driver is installed
Hi all
I m having problems with my nvidia Geforce FX Go5200, in a portable Satellite Pro M30, (processor Intel Pentium M 1.7 GHz, 512 MB Ram). This card was working fine suddenly the laptop stops.
I formatted the laptop and installed Win XP PRO. After installing the driver VGA, I restarted the laptop, but black screen started to come right after the Win XP splash screen appears. The laptop continues to start up but no screen.
It starts fine in safe mode. I get my best screen simply by disabling the geforce card or uninstall the driver. I tried to install a new driver for the VGA on the download from Toshiba site, but same problem appears. I also tried the BIOS update but nothing happens.
Can someone help me?
[email protected]It's very strange question. It will be really interesting to know if this happens when you use the CD delivered recovery facilities.
In any case, I assume that there is a problem with the LCD display. In safe mode, the desktop appears in the resolution decreases but the resolution to the OS boot will be suitable for a standard (1280 x 800), and of course, there is the problem.
I am not a technician, but I recommend you contact the Service partner. AFAIK they use special tools and programs for display tests. They can tell you more.

Toshiba satellite pro m30 USB problem
I have toshiba satellite pro m30 and HP scanjet 4600 scanner.when I connect the scanner directly to the notebok with its ' original usb cable there is no problem. But if I connect the scanner to the laptop with a laptop usb extension cable cannot initialize the scanner. There is no problem if I connect the scanner to the VAIO laptop with usb extension cable. What can I do?
Hello
could you describe the difference between the original USB cable and the USB extension cable?
The laptop and the printer works correctly with the original USB cable, but it seems that the extension USB cable is an inexpensive which does not fulfill the technical specifications and the laptop has a problem with this issue.
To solve the problem in my opinion you could do an update of the BIOS, look if for your printer is a new driver available and reinstall the USB drivers.
Also, you could test whether USB, the same problem occurs with other cables.

Satellite Pro M30, it is recommended to install the new nVIDIA display driver?
I own a laptop Satellite Pro M30, which includes a GeForce FX Go5200 GPU from nVIDIA. On 27 July, nVIDIA has released a new driver and related software (version 61.77), as indicated by nVIDIA, fits all the its GPU.
I tried to install this new driver on my laptop (after removing the old driver following the instructions by nVIDIA) but it does not install. Does anyone have an idea why?
Why the new driver is not displayed on the Toshiba support site driver for this laptop?
Hello
All drivers are designed and tested to laptops and Tom is right about producer for laptop. This means that you can find the download page for all drivers needed on Toshiba.
As much I know Toshiba supports the drivers shipped with the device drivers and updates if necessary.

Satellite Pro M30 Win 7 - webcam does not work on msn messenger
Hi all
I have a Satellite Pro M30 Modell Nr.: PSM35E and just changed to Windows 7. But put him Nvidia card NVIDIA GeForceTM FX Go5200 Grafik 64 MB of RAM is not working properly.
I could find a Vista driver and installed, have Aero + photos on the desktop, but my webcam does not work on msn messenger and this is the only way for me to see my family.
Can someone help me?
Thanks for your help
Hello
I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?
I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device. -
Satellite Pro M30: Question Abu support DVI port
Hello world
I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 with a nVidia go5200 graphics card. The nvidia Web page asserts that this graphics card has DVI support (http://www.nvidia.co.uk/page/fx_mobile_fb_5200.html) but I could not connect my apple cinema display to the computer.
The screen is connected through a DVI vga, but I don't have a 'real' addaptor.Does anyone have a solution to my problem?
Thank you
MagnusHello
According to the specification this device doesn't have a DVI - D port and there is no possibility to connect it directly to the unit. This unit video a VGA 15 pins port only. Google all over the place. Maybe you'll find a real adapter.
If you find something interesting, please let us know. It may be useful for other members of the forum.
Good bye

Win XP drivers do not work with Win 7, but you should try some drivers for Vista.
Try some drivers released for other series...Also try this:
You can go to Device Manager-> properties-> Details tab SC card reader
You can find something like that.

Hi all
I recently bought the external drive western digital mybook premium ARE. This disc has an eSATA (external SATA) port.
The problem is that my satellite pro m30 (model #: psm35e0021jar) is not the external SATA port. I found an ADDONICS (eSATA, ExpressCard 34) and another similar product from SIIG (eSATA II Express Card).
The question is:
1.) these products going to be compatible with my fairly old laptop?
2.) is the hard drive of my laptop SATA technology is or what?
(3.) what brand of motherboard used in my laptop?Thanks in advance and I cannot wait for the answers.
Hello
1.) these 3 products of third parties are not known to me, but as you know the Satellite Pro M30 does not support a SATA interface and if you want to upgrade the HARD drive, you will need to use the HARD disk with interface IDE (ATA-5) increased.
(2.) No, as indicated above the laptop supports the IDE and not SATA
(3.) the Satellite Pro M30 using motherboards Toshiba ;)A hint; If you have a SATA HDD, you can use it as a external HARD drive. This HARD disk can be connected via external USB sata controller.

Options to upgrade to Vista for Satellite Pro M30-114/Centrino PM 745
Hello
Does anyone know if there is a solution to make a Satellite Pro M30-114/Centrino PM 745 (model No. PSM35E - 002 X 0 - S4) running windows vista AERO?
According to the Microsoft diagnostic tool, the graphics card is unable to run AERO. Is this true? It can be replaced? with what model of GC? Another option?Thanks in advance for the help
Hello
Solution? I don t think that someone will post a solution here.
Why? Because there is no problem!It s a simple fact that the Vista Aero needs Windows Vista Premium ready computer:
1 GHz 32-bit (x 86) or (x 64) 64-bit processor).
1 GB of system memory.
Support for DirectX 9 graphics with a WDDM driver, 128 MB graphics memory (minimum) Pixel Shader 2.0 and 32 bits per pixel.Your laptop uses a shared 32 to 64 MB graphics card. Sorry, but this is just too weak to run Vista Aero feature.
By the way: it s is not possible to replace and update the graphics card on laptops

Satellite Pro M30 - compatible DVD players
Hello
I have a Satellite Pro M30 and the optical block has problems, recognizing most of my DVDs.
I want to change the drive, does anyone know which are the models compatible with this machine?
The real player is Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-R6112.Thank you
DanielHello
As far as I know this unit has DVD +-R/RW (DualDrive) and in my opinion the best solution is to swap it with the same. On this way, you will be sure that everything works correctly.
Unfortunately, there is no public document on the hardware upgrade and just Toshiba service partners can tell you more about it.

Satellite Pro M30; BSOD: 0X000000F4
I have a Satellite Pro M30 PM715. I installed Windows XP Professional SP2. The problem is that I have random BSOD. Most of the time is a daily BSOD... I did a virus scan and nothing was found.
Do you have any ideas about this?Hello
I found an interesting document from Toshiba on their homepage "information" updated Microsoft Windows XP SP2.
Go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
then download and drivers and choose your machine.
In this document, we could see the Driver after the upgrade to SP2. Maybe if you bring drivers and tools updates your BSOD is gone!

Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 & Power Saver stop error
Hello!
I am struggling with this problem for months... the latest version of Eve on my toshiba satellite pro m30 running windows xp with service pack 1 installed gives a message box with an error message when the stop and I'm unable to eliminate this error. Unfortunately, I can't consider reinstall the system from scratch, because there are many other applications installed and I can't lose the settings for them. I read the forums and realized I'm not one of the problems with toshiba power saver. I'm even lucky to successfully at startup started it! Yet, it hangs at shutdown. It's pretty boring. also, I downloaded all the latest updates of this site for my laptop, including even the bios update.
I would like the opportunity to be able to download the version without toshiba this site energy saving bug, and I'm sure many other people would appreciate the patch too!
any comment on that?
Andrew.
Hello
If your laptop is installed correctly it should work well. All the software has been tested. The only reason for your problem may be additional software that you have installed later.
It is also possible that it may be caused by an Antivirus application. Maybe an application runs in the background? There are many reasons that may be responsible for this problem.
If you reinstall your Notebook of recovery CD it will not work properly. It is very unjustifiable to write on some versions bug-free. I sometimes have problems with BONES, but almost always after using some freeware.
Good bye
