Satellite Pro P300 - locks up if I insert an SD card

I have Toshiba Satellite Pro P300 running Vista 32.

Whenever I have insert and screen SD card becomes a wonderful mosac and the PC hangs and I have to re - start. I tested the card / formatted the card using an external on the PC card reader and it works / tested fine.

Any body got any ideas.

Hello!

What SD cards you are trying to use it on your laptop? I recommend you the user manual if the type or size of the SD card is supported on this model.

And you've updated the driver for the SD card reader? You can find it on the Toshiba site:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online downloads support & -online Download Driver

In the worst case, it s a hardware malfunction of the card or motherboard, but this reader should be checked by a technician of the laptop.

Good bye

    Hello I have the Satellite Pro P300 - 13M.

    My sister fell on my UTP cable and so he was taken out by force and because of that "holding-pings" on the front of the port are bent or broken, so whenever I put in a cable with traction slightess or accidental poke I'm new offline...

    I'm out of my warranty period, is it possible to fix this? Can I replace it myself?
    USB network adapters are a viable solution to replace if I can't replace it?

    Help > _

    To resolve this issue, you must replace the motherboard. The network card or a network location is soldered on the motherboard and cannot be traded.

    In addition, it would be not covered by warranty. This isn't a matter of Toshiba, this is caused by the customer.

    However, if you want to repair you must contact an ASP or search you on eBay for a card mother of second hand.

    Hi padi.

    This s really strange question...

    Theoretically, it could be a hardware malfunction or software/driver problem. In a first step, I would reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc.

  • 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 - 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

    Aernout

    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?

  • 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.

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

    Any thought / experience welcome.

    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

    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

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.
