• Satellite Pro A120 - screen flickers when you activate another monitor

  I have a Satellite Pro A120, who has a problem with the computer screen to turn off image poor qulity (looks like interference) when you use the function key and activate a second monitor, but the image on the 2nd monitor is fine. I also discovered that the second monitor doesn't have to be physically connected to the main display having the problem, as soon as you activate the second screen the problem starts. However, as soon as you disable the second monitor, the computer screen looks perfect.

  I updated the BIOS of these two and the graphics driver, but the problem still persists.
  Any ideas?

  Why don't you tell us what portable external that you use?

  Have you tried to put the good resolution of monitor 1 (s notebook LCD) after the switch to the external display? I can imagine LCD becomes bad resolution and it must be changed.

  Please play with all the display settings. I used my cell phone so many times with different external screens and I was always able to configure this works well in any mode offered.

  I need help with this one because the response from the microsoft Web site is to install the latest display drivers for this problem...
  And there is none, then those that I have installed new drivers.

  Hello

  What version of Windows 7, you have exactly? I mean 32-bit or 64-bit

  I put t know what version of BIOS you have, but you should also consult the Web from Toshiba site to such update.

  Have you tried an older version of driver? If so, I recommend you to install this version or restore the system to an earlier point.

• Satellite Pro M30 - some mistakes of color and pixel

  The last days I had some problems with the display screen. I had a few mistakes of color-mistakes and pixels. Colors erupt anywhere on the screen, icons disappear and if I move quickly around the screen (with her pinter) ex a document in Word (Office), I have interference with some pixels/points in the text and also a strange thing as some want to erase the text with an eraser.

  But if I have to "Refresh" the sides where it happened that it is ok again, until I repeat once again. I try a few other HD is the same and I also format the HD, but it is still there (I think it might be a virus).

  Also, sometimes the display flashes until it is regular again. Sometimes, it's better or wrong.
  I guess it may be a failure of the map screen. I also get some stick photo (and rehearsals) when I use the cam on Skype & MSN.

  some hint/tip?

  Hello

  May I ask if you have installed another display driver for your laptop? You should only use the display directly from Toshiba drivers because they are pre-tested on the laptop.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know what happens if you connect an external monitor. You may notice the same problem there?
  Maybe reinstalling Windows can also solve this problem

  Anyway, if you need professional assistance, you must contact the service provider authorized in your country. Technicians can check your laptop. :)

• Screen jumping and overheating issues on my Satellite Pro M30

  Hey everybody!

  I have a Satellite Pro M30, the screen seems to wobble a bit, probably due to a loose hinge. Can you please help me with this problem?
  In addition, my laptop seems to overheat, how do I clean the dust to stop overheating?

  Thank you

  Hi mate!
  For the screen issue. As it is a hardware thing, I suggest that contact you a local ASP. Of course, you can try by yourself to this problem, but I can say from my own, fitting the screen isn't the easy thing to do on your own, if you have no experience in that.

  To clean your laptop from dust, you can use compressed air jet. Also make sure the cooling modules are not blocked by objects on your table, because if you've blocked, warm air ponds and cannot be updated.

• 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.

  which is extremely difficult to buy. A very similar memory of Kingston is KVR333X64SC25.

  It is fully compatible with M30? Anyone tried?

  Hello

  Your laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible 1 GB of RAM except the number PA3313U-1M1G. Use this number for Google search.
  I hope you find somewhere. This module may not be more expensive so I recommend buying 2 of them and the upgrade of RAM maximum.

• 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.

  Good bye

• 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.

• 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,

  Andrejs

  (You can also contact me private my e-mail address)

  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: Display settings

  I have a satellite pro m30. does anyone know how to resize the screen. As I am a dj profeshional by trade. I run my show of my laptop. And I need to run at 800 x 600, but it just goes to the middle with a large black border how I re-size it

  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 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.
