• Satellite Pro P300-1F1 - how to install a second HDD?

  Hello

  I would like to install a second hard drive to my Satellite Pro P300-1F1.

  I would like to know if I need a "cellar" special to set the hard drive inside the Bay? Where could I get such a thing in Germany (near Cologne)?

  On the inside of the drive Bay cover HARD are four plastic pins that are so long that it is impossible to close the cover when a hard drive is built in.
  What I have to just shorten or do I need a new cover or pins work like a kind of attachment?

  Thank you very much for your help!

  Is there a connector from the HARD drive in the second span?

  If this isn't the case, then you can not install a HARD drive in any case. The second span is because he shares a common design with models that have a second HDD of the factory.

  on the satellite X 200-245: can I install a second hard drive?
  is this possible?
  There is a place for him but no sata connection on the motherboard where can I find this connector

  No you can not install the second HDD because there is no connector on the HARD drive that would be impossible to connect the HARD drive to the mobo.
  And no, it of not possible to upgrade the mobo with this connector.

  The X 200 has two HARD drive bays because certain X 200 support 2 hard drives and some don t support.

  Your X 200 doesn't support 2 HDD

• Satellite Pro M70-137: can I use Memory Stick Pro Duo?

  I think to buy a new digital camera from Sony, witch uses Memory Stick Duo Pro. I'm not used to Sony memory cards, so I don't know if my Satellite Pro M70-137 of the 5-in-1 built in card reader can be used with Memory Stick Duo Pro. On Toshibas Web site, it says Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, but nothing on Memory Stick Duo Pro.

• Re: Satellite Pro A300-1EA: can I use faster and bigger HARD drive?

  So this may seem like a stupid question, but if I intend to spend of the installed 160 GB 5400 RPM HDD of the Satellite Pro A300 1EA to a 7200 RPM drive HARD (do not know the ability yet) and I was wondering how to make recovery disks (downgrade from Vista professional and XP Professional) coming with the work of the laptop with the HARD disk that does not part of factory as drives for my understanding restore the system...

  The size of the drive HARD replacement has something to do with the thing?
  If the replacement HARD drive is also 160 GB system see the difference? And even if it was smaller or larger the system see the difference?

  I have not even bought the laptop but will soon and it is a little urgent.

  Computer thanks Fellows ahead! :)

  * Oh... It seems that this question has already been answered... a little research has ever killed forum person huh... but if someone has vital information about the issue... Please let me know! :)*

  Hello

  I think that he should t be a problem with an upgrade to a faster and bigger HARD drive.
  But before you switch the HARD disk, you must create the Toshiba Recovery DVD using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
  After the recovery disk has been created, you can move the hard drives.

  Best regards

• Satellite Pro A200-16N: can I use the recovery CD after upgrade to Vista

  HII!

  IM thinking of upgrading to windows vista on my Satellite Pro A200-16N and I ran the pre-upgrade of windows vista from microsoft website and it says that my system will be in charge of windows vista so im ok about it.

  The problem is that if my laptop was to break or something like that at some point, will my recovery CD provided by toshiba to work always on the laptop with windows vista?
  They will return the laptop for windows xp or from my laptop has another operating system they will not work?

  Also...
  What's the deal with BIOS? : S
  I don't understand!
  If I were to upgrade to windows vista should I upgrade my BIOS before or after the upgrade to vista?
  As I download the new drivers before upgrading Yes?

  Thank you!

  The restore CD will of course work.
  The recovery CD will always set the laptop back to the factory settings. This means that the whole HARD drive will be formatted and the image of Toshiba will be installed.

  > What's the deal with BIOS? I put t understand!
  > If I were to upgrade to windows vista should I upgrade my BIOS before or after the upgrade to vista?
  To my knowledge, that this laptop was already shipped with Vista, so you need not update the BIOS if you want to reinstall Vista.

  Some series Satellite A200 needs a BIOS update if you want to use the XP.
  In such cases, it s advisable to upgrade the BIOS to version XP first, then install OS X.

  Laptop specs

  Intel Core2Duo T7200 2.0 GHz

  Hello

  Have you already checked the BIOS? How much RAM show the BIOS?
  And what kind of modules you have exactly?

  Normally, it should be possible to use full 4 GB of RAM on a 64 bit OS as your laptop also supports 4 GB.

  Maybe you should also try updating the chipset driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site.

• Satellite Pro P300-1AY - can it be upgraded to DDR3 RAM?

  I currently have 3 072 (2 048 + 1 024) MB | maximum extension: 8 192 MB / technology: DDR2 RAM (800 MHz)

  And I was wondering if it could be upgraded to 4 096 (2 048 + 2 048) MB / DDR3 RAM (1066 MHz).

  Hello!

  No, you can upgrade to t mobile with DDR3 RAM. The point is that these modules do not fit into the RAM slots, and they have different specifications.

  If you want to upgrade the RAM to 4 GB, you must purchase DDR2-RAM. You can buy each desired production, but I have good experiences with the Kingston modules.

  And you already know the requirements for the 4 GB? You need a 64 bit OS to use it! ;)

• Satellite Pro P300 - 23L: can't get screen Toshiba Leading Innovation

  This is a cut and paste from a previous post, but the one I'm having a problem with today (save me typing again!):

  When I start my laptop, it stops on the first screen of the Toshiba innovation and only gives the opportunity to do two things. That's what he said to prevent the page * "Press F2 to enter Setup, F12 to access the selection of Multiboot Menu" * I tried both. I pressed F2, I press F12 and no one bothers me pst screen

  -When I press on either after the Toshiba screen is visible, they do nothing
  -If I press "F2" at the start, upward, the instructions at the bottom of the page says "Please Wait". However, I waited for hours and nothing ever happened. The "Please wait" message just sitting there.
  -If I press F12 during startup, upwards, the instructions at the bottom of the page says "press F2 SETUP, Entering boot device selection menu... "Then he is there and does anything just
  The screen Toshiba Leading Innovation remains all the time.

  I have tried removeing the battery and draining flea power - this does not solve the problem.

  When I restart the laptop, I get the situation according to the line 1 above. No amount of tap F8 does nothing... I'm still back to the page of the main Innovation of Toshiba.

  The fan works, but the HARD disk led never sparkles.

  Any suggestions please? Thank you

  Hello

  If the laptop is unable to pass the home screen Toshiba (POST-puissance on self test) then this behavior of the laptop is mainly related to a serious hardware problem.

  The defective HARD drive would not cause such a problem, because even if the HARD drive is faulty, the laptop must be able to pass such screen...

  So I guess there is something wrong with the RAM or the motherboard.
  Here you can check how to remove the RAM modules and insert the new memory:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/CRU9902O80001R01.htm

  If the problem is not related to defective RAM, then other parts like the motherboard (maybe module BIOS EPROM) must be verified... but such verification requires additional special tools and that's why I think it would be a job for a laptop technicians...

• Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1E - can I use the Bios for PSLB9E update

  Hi guys

  IM wondering if I can Flash my computer model toshiba laptop as in description with the following bios version

  PSLB1E Bios Version 1.50

  the question is - what the hardware is the same I'm sure that

  Hello

  The question is: why you want to update the BIOS?
  Is there something wrong?

  As you know, the BIOS update is a sensitive technique.
  My laptop works with old BIOS and I did not upgrade to update even if the new version has been released I didn't update because my camera is ok.

  However, it seems that the two series are similar, but I think there are still some minor differences besides the BIOS update should not continues if the wrong version would be selected

• The new use of recovery of Windows XP with my q Satellite Pro P300-19?

  I just bought a Satellite Pro P300-19 q with Vista pre-installed. I want to use Windows XP Professional instead and understand that I must use the DVD titled "Product development - Microsoft Windows XP Professional" supplied with the machine. To do this, however, the provided information sheet is not very useful when he says only: «you will have to load this...» »

  My question is: How do I do it from running the disc in the DVD player, just reveals several files which none will get me nowhere?

  Any help would be welcome.

  The recovery of Windows XP product disc contains an image of a Windows XP installation ready with all the drivers and tools.

  Before installing Windows XP, you should burn the Vista recovery disk because if you want to restore Windows Vista you will need this disc. So, you can restore the computer back to wherever it was when you originally received.
  So far as the recovery image (Vista) is only stored on the HARD drive and so you can burn it to a DVD:
  Click on the Toshiba recovery disc creator and insert a blank DVD. Then follow the instructions on the screen. The recovery disk will be created.
  You are now able to boot from this DVD and install Vista with all the drivers and tools (factory settings).

  When you reinstall Windows with a recovery disk, the HARD disk will be reformatted and all data will be lost. This means that as other partitions so backup your data first.

  If you are using Vista it s also able to restore the factory since the HARD drive settings. Therefore, the files are stored in the folder HDDRecovery.
  So, if you want to put your mobile PC, press F8. Then you can see the menu and there advanced boot options, select repair your computer.
  Follow the instructions on the screen and the laptop will also reinstall.
  But don't forget, this (HARD disk recovery) feature is only available with Vista, not XP.

  So if you understand this and burned the Vista recovery disk, you can start to install Windows XP.
  Boot from the XP Recovery disk and follow the instructions on the screen. The installation of Windows XP does not have a lot of time and this procedure is similar to Vista. After installation you also have an installation with all drivers and Toshiba tools but with Windows XP of course.
  This is the content of the Windows XP Recovery disk.

• Satellite Pro P300 - what is the maximum RAM I can install?

  What is the maximum RAM you can install in the PSPCDA-01L00D Toshiba Satellite Pro P300?

  It is not listed in the specifications.

  Hello!

  It seems therefore that the laptop is already upgraded to the maximum RAM.

  I think that 4 GB of RAM should be sufficient for all applications on a laptop at the moment. :)
