• Satellite Pro P300-1AY - screen and keyboard issues

  Satellite Pro P300-1AY

  First and most importantly, I suspect that the backlight may have gone in my laptop screen.
  If, for example, it's just something simple like a loose connection, this is an easy solution?

  Otherwise, no idea how much it would cost for a replacement?

  Secondly, I switch to a different keyboard layout.
  Anyone know where I can find a Belgian AZERTY keyboard for this laptop?

  Thanks x

  Hmm. Maybe it's s inverter a FL. The FL inverter is a small part that controls the screen backlight
  Generally disassembly laptop procedure is very delicate and looks like you've never disassembled the laptop so I would not recommend to do anything which could damage the other parts get in touch with a local ASP and ask for help.
  Usually the FL inverter should not be expensive pieces but I have no idea on costs

• Satellite Pro P300 - 18Q - upgrade to Windows XP

  My colleague is about to buy a new laptop Satellite Pro P300 - 18 Q and asks me to perform the downgrade it to XP.

  Are there instructions with the machine on the way to do it. ?
  I know that it comes with Vista and XP Professional as recovery on DVD media.

  Any information would be much appreciated. Thank you

  Hello

  If this laptop comes with Windows XP Home edition recovery media, I don't understand why ask you the next question. Your colleague can decide which operating system they want to use. If he wants to use the Windows XP using WXP home edition recovery media and install the Windows XP Home edition operating system.

  Someday, if he wants to use Vista, it can install it using sent Vista recovery image.

  I hope you understand what I mean.

• Satellite Pro P300 - BIOS upgrade to 64 - bit

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro P300 - 266 PSPCDE and I am very happy with him.

  Since I have a WIN7 64 bit OS, ready to use and 8 GB of RAM I need to update the BIOS to 64-bit.

  I found a WinPhlash file on the support site of Toshiba (toshiba - tro.de) bios called - 20090226124829.zip. I tried to use it as described in the Toshiba support on the use of WinPhlash (http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm) page. Also, I made an exception for WinPhlash in the registry of the DEP.

  It still does not work.

  Since I am a user knowing very mediocre modern computers I guess I'm doing something wrong or I can be monitor something... can anyone please help me upgrade my system to its full capabilities?

  Thank you

  You don't need to upgrade BIOS. If everything works well don t change anything.
  I have Satellite P300 with preinstalled Win7 32 bit and works perfectly.

  How do your shopping with the 64-bit version?

• Satellite Pro P300 - update graphic card and CPU

  I have a Satellite Pro P300 and I was wondering if the CPU or the graphics card can be improved?

  I really like my laptop, but an upgrade is imminent and before I take the plunge I just want to see if it is all options other than a new laptop.

  Hello

  Processor and graphics card update is not supported and there is no list with compatible processors. If everything is on your own risk. In the worst case a new processor will not be recognized from the motherboard or BIOS, probably you need a new module of cooling too so I wouldn t this

  In addition, the graphics card is attached to the motherboard and cannot be exchanged.

• Satellite Pro P300-1EC - cannot get wireless to work

  Hello!

  First of all. Excuse me for my English!

  TEC Spec.

  Toshiba Satellite Pro P300-1EC
  Intel WiFi Link 5100
  Windows XP Pro SP3

  I have a big problem. I can't get the wireless LAN working properly.
  And the customer has purchased this computer because his old computer stopped working with WLAN...

  I tried everything I can. And I am a person of educated tech, so I think I should have the knowledge of this, but I do not have.

  Short version.

  1. install the latest drivers. (Also tried more aged)
  2 restart the computer.
  3 WNIC takes about 10 min to find WLAN.
  4. While working perfect with 130Mbps on project N.
  5.i can user logout and change and all.
  6. when I restart I'm back at number 3.

  Long version:

  I installed XP pro since the XP downgrade Cd included and wireless drivers wasn't on that CD so I downloaded them. (And Yes. "This is the correct drivers.)
  After that I installed the driver and restart my computer, I could not find wireless networks. Kind of weird because I have 4 routers/points of WLAN on my company with the range 60-100% and about 3 other public routers without security. I tried to update the drivers to windows update, and WU has found an update for me. I installed driver and the wireless highlight function. I scream YES and restart the computer. Then it stopped working. N° !!!
  I was a little tired on the problem and began installing some other computers that I bought and when I looked the Toshiba computer that I saw that it was connected to my WLAN. Weird, but I thought it worked then I restart the computer again and then his does not work... again! Now, I have analyzedthe problem and it's like that.

  When I start the computer the my WNIC does not any WLAN.
  About 10 min (10m32s) after starting the wireless started working.
  I am able to disconnect and change the user and it still works, but as soon as I restart the computer it stops and I have to wait another 10 minutes. And so on.

  Anyone been trough something like this even if it is not not toshiba or my model?

  Hello

  What is the Satellite Pro P300 - 1EC BIOS is up-to-date?
  Please check everything first.

  You said you are using Draft N did you tried to establish the WiFi connection using other standard WLan as 802.11 A or G?

  I also recommend changing the WiFi channel and try other channels.

  In addition, you can change a WLan option that affects the WLan functionality. You can find these settings in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro P300 restarts a few minutes after the stop

  Hello

  I'm unable to download the update of the BIOS for a Toshiba Satellite Pro P300 PSPCDE (WIN 3.00), the reason being that I wonder a user name and password to download the file!

  The laptop has this annoying problem to revive a few minutes after the laptop has stopped, and that's why I want to update the BIOS to see if it suits him. Laptop is running XP Pro (downgraded from Vista).

  Ideas how I can get the update of the BIOS and will it solve the strange rebooting problem?

  Paul

  Where are you trying to download the BIOS?
  I always download my updates on the official website of Toshiba and if it doesn't work maybe you should wait a day.
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  To be honest, I doubt that the BIOS update will solve this problem. I often read about this problem and you can solve if you disable the wake on LAN function in the BIOS and Windows (properties of the wireless network card).
  Check it!

  Hello.

  I have a P300 with Realtek internal sound card and drivers updated.

• Occasional Satellite Pro P300-1FP - gel during video playback

  Hello forum,.

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro P300-1FP, age about 4 years old.

  Running Windows 7 (32-bit version).

  An occasional but annoying problem: when playing video, from time to time the whole system freezes. Sound continues to come from the speakers, but it is usually either an idle down & distorted version of what I should be heard, or a noise buzzing/scream loud, repetitive.

  System retrieves ever - only freezes completely, unresponsive, frozen display, the mouse pointer moves, etc.. Have to restart every time.

  Anyone know what could be the cause of this & how can I fix this?

  Thank you
  Alan.

  As far as I know SP P300 works well with Win7 32 bit. My brother has the same machine and use it with Win7 too. We checked often performance with different games or playing different videos, mostly from avi or mpeg files. Also very good race and YouTube videos smoothly, so I really don t understand why you have this problem of gel.

  Have you installed the Toshiba download page display driver?
  HARD drive is extremely busy before that happens?

  The same thing happens when you play games?

• Satellite Pro P300 - 23L - horizontal lines on the taskbar

  I have a portable Satellite Pro P300 - 23L.
  Last night it suddenly appeared, about 30 horizontal thin white lines on the taskbar (actually on the bottom half inch of the screen).
  The top 3 or 4 of these lines seem to pulse in a fast and regular way.

  Now, I can barely see the icons in the taskbar, or the button to start in the lower left corner.

  I read on another forum that the problem may be due to a problem of "grounding".
  The charger plug is actually broken and repaired the wiring myself, but that some time previously, so it is possible that a connection is loose or is now was something shorting causing this effect.

  I had to order a new charger but in the meantime would appreciate any assistance in order to confirm or deny that this could be the problem.

  Any advice on how to remedy this?

  Hello

  If the problem would be with the power adapter this lines should NOT be visible using the laptop with the battery. Right?
  Therefore, it would be really interesting to know if the same lines are visible if the AC adapter is not plugged in.

  But I think that this is unrelated to the power adapter. In my opinion its a display issue or a graphics card problem.
  Therefore, you must connect an external monitor to check it out.
  If the same lines are visible on the external monitor, the graphics chip is assigned the case, it could be a display problem.

• Satellite Pro P300 best exit way to get audio for blu - ray player or projector

  Hello

  Would be great if someone has experience on the following points.

  I have a Satellite Pro P300 - PSPCDA 03 P00D: I would like to know the best option for high-quality audio from this unit to a blu - ray player or an optoma projector. (Or a good way to find the answer)

  The blu - ray player has hdmi (the satellite does not work) and the optoma projector has a 3.5 mm mini-plug.

  The satellite has a sound piece dolby - is it possible to get a feed for audio output dolby?

  Any thought / experience welcome.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  Not sure but I think that the headphone socket supports S/PDIF
  I think you should check the user manual for more information on S/PDIF
  If his support, then you can use it to get the best audio quality

  Also found this doc in the knowledge base of Toshiba

  Hello

  The European driver Toshiba page provides two audio Conexant drivers for this model of laptop.
  + Driver sound + 4.36.10.0
  + Driver sound + 4.83.1.0

  I recommend the new version 4.83.1.0
  Uninstall the old driver first in the Device Manager.

  Restart the device and install the new downloaded drivers.

  Hope this helps to get better sound quality :)

• Satellite Pro P300 BIOS not only flash through recovery CD en

  Hi people

  I tried to update my BIOS on my laptop Satellite pro P300 series, and it seems to have gone wrong. I have now read a lot about the winphlash version goes wrong. I managed to create a recovery CD, and it starts the procedure of flash and works almost to the end, but then shuts down and restarts. I have no idea how to solve this problem. I don't know that I have the correct procedure and BIOS recovery. I can boot my laptop with Ubuntu, but I really don't want to get rid of my windows installation.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Have you tried to Flash the BIOS in the Windows operating system?

  The BIOS is focused on victory and you can Flash the ROM module using the version of the BIOS based win.

  This, to a Windows operating system installed.

  Found a doc HowTo very interesting on the update of the BIOS.
