• Need info on max size of HARD drive available for Satellite Pro M30-813

  Hello

  The question is mainly to be sent to Toshiba authorized support personnel. The limitation of the maximum size of a HARD drive internal that I could use with my Satellite Pro M30 - 813, what exactly?

  Recently, I bought and installed seagate SATA drive of 160 GB, on which I installed WXP Pro and have been running for a while with no problems. Recently, I've been copying large amounts of data to an external hard drive to my new internal drive, and that the files have been copied, as I noticed have about 50 GB of free space left, I knew windows "delayed write failed" and a failure of massive wall without the possibility to recover the data. The system would no longer boot time and the entire MBR has been damaged. As a result, I lost all the data on my new drive.

  Well, I realize that Toshiba is not responsible for additional hardware that I use with my computer laptop and who is not officially supported by Toshiba, I am sure that as an end-user of a Toshiba product, that I have the right to know a lot information of limiting size of HDD for my model of laptop. So I ask, representing technical support Toshiba to give me an official reply directly to my question.

  Thank you in advance,

  Hi Andrew

  > The question should mainly be addressed to Toshiba authorized support staff
  I think that you are in the wrong place if you are looking for a response from an authorized Toshiba support.
  This is a user to user Toshiba forum! You will here meet passionate and Toshiba laptop owner who share knowledge and trying to solve the problems, but no one of Tosh :(

  I could give my experience with Satellite M30 and HDD upgrade possibilities.
  To my knowledge the M30 Sat supports a 40 GB, 60 and 80 GB HARD drive for sure.
  In my opinion, you can use the 100 GB HARD drive, but more large HARD s drive will not run and works correctly.
  So go to a smaller size of HARD drive and enjoy the laptop!

  I've goggled a bit and found compatible drive HARD and part numbers
  HITACHI GBC000Z810-> 80 GB
  HITACHI GBC00014810-> 80 GB
  TOSHIBA HDD2188B-> 80 GB
  HITACHI G8C0000Z610-> 60 GB
  HITACHI G8BC00013610-> 60 GB
  TOSHIBA HDD2183-> 60 GB
  TOSHIBA HDD2184-> 60 GB

  I hope this might help you a little!

• 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 - download drivers?

  Hello world

  I hope someone is able to help me:

  I tried to find the drivers for my laptop on this site here, given that my original CD with the top drivers is lost. I was able to get to the section pilots where I entered the serial number of my laptop. After that, I get redirected to a website, which appeared to store everything you need for the Toshiba Satellite Pro M30. Unfortunately, it didn't show the "loading circle', no matter which section, I tried to access (for example"manuals"or"drivers", etc.).
  Then, I hit up the forums and read on 'archive', in which the drivers and other utilities for older, obsolete laptops are available. Unfortunately, this article was not available at all.
  In addition, my research efforts on Google didn't get anywhere.
  Could someone tell me what I have to do to get your hands on these drivers or, where there is not such an option, download me these drivers (for example on Megaupload.com) pack?
  I would be forever indebted to anyone some.

  Thanks in advance!

• 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
  Daniel

  Hello

  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.

  Do you have any ideas about this?

  Go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

• 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: 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
  Magnus

  Hello

  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.

  Hi Dennis,

  Shoukd you change the resolution of the screen as follows: -.

  Right-click on your desktop and select 'Properties' to open your display properties window. Then select the SETTINGS tab, down on the left side you should see a slider marked "screen resolution." Set this option to change your settings for the display on 800 X 600. Then click APPLY.

• Satellite Pro m30: battery saver screen

  I have a satellite pro m30. with a Geforce x Go5200

  When I turn my laptop on its obscurity. I aways use power outlet. never just battery. I have to go in the setting every time I turn on. is the way to save all the settings

  Hi Dennis,

  Using the Toshiba power management or standard options of Microsoft?

  I would recommend the Toshiba utility, as this will allow you to set various options, including the brightness of the display.

  You should be able to set options for power supply and power of the battery of your choice, then save them so that they will be called automatically when you start your laptop.

  Power options are available from the control panel.

• Satellite Pro M30 series deactivates the WLan connection

  I have an old Satellite Pro M30 series. Whenever I turn on the wireless signal, the computer closes its doors.
  I assume that the driver's latest version.

  I'm not known for that Yes, there is someone out there who can advise me on where to find the latest driver and install it.

  Assuming this is the problem.

  Thank you
  Gibbsey

  > spend a lot of time on the wireless signal, the computer closes its doors.

  What do you mean exactly by farm down?
  The laptop turns off automatically once the WiFi (switch) card is turned on?

  I put t think this would cause obsolete WLan driver, this sounds like a hardware problem.
  In case it of not possible to use the internal WiFi card, I recommend to use an external USB WiFi dongle.
  Would be the best option

  PS: all the drivers for old Toshiba laptops are placed on the page of the Toshiba UE driver.
  You will need to search the archives (in the product Type click Archive) for a list of the old series of laptop computer.
