    Hello

    The CD/DVD drive using the Microsoft diver who is included in the Windows operating system.
    According to this page or some registry keys are corrupt windows clean driver failures.

    I think that you must first access the Device Manager and check if the CD/DVD drive is displayed correctly.
    If you do not see a yellow exclamation I recommend to remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot the laptop.

    After restarting again the OS should recognize the new device (CD/DVD drive) and should implement the drivers again.
    Finally start the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    and restart the device.

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro 490 update BIOS

    My Satellite Pro 490 Notebook refuses to start recently and demanded an update of the BIOS. I checked on the Toshiba site for advice and downloaded the correct BIOSware on another computer. I created a bootdisk BACK (on advice) and saved the BIOSware to this, and I started the laptop with the parallel diskette in the external floppy drive.

    He whirred and buzzed and seemed to do its thing, but when I stopped and restarted for WinXP, it was not recognizing my kepboard or integrated mouse. He sometimes recognizes a USB external mouse, but he doesn't always know what I want to do : o ( )

    So I did it once again, this time, after you restart with the floppy in the drive, he bed 'to go '. "and shows me the gubbins of copyright of Microsoft Corporation and then takes me to the A:\ command prompt and still does not recognize my kepboard or the mouse, just the weird key here and there.

    Before I got the ban at the end og the garden, is - someone give me advice? Is there anything else I could try? Anything? =o r

    What can I do to make it possible upgrade of bios?

    Hello

    Fist question: why you want to update the BIOS?
    Have you had problems with your unit?

    I use my laptop for 6 years and I've never update of the BIOS. It of not necessary for me because everything works fine.
    If you have any problems you shouldn't t update the BIOS because the BIOS upgrade procedure is dangerous.

    Wrong or bad BIOS BIOS can damage the motherboard.
    If you want to know how to update BIOS please check the Toshiba FAQ:

  • S5200-902 - common Modules are not installed

    Hello

    I have just re-built a S5200-902 from zero (new hard drive & fan) installed WinXP SP2 and then found out I have not installed the Toshiba s/w in the right order. Is it possible to get the common Modules on the laptop without having to re - install from the beginning again? I uninstalled all the Toshiba downloads I see I put on it, but still won't take the common Modules.

    Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    DuncanM

    Hello

    If you use the restore CD for the installation of the OS all the necessary drivers and tools must be preinstalled. If you are installing SP2, it is possible that some tools or drivers do not work properly.

    If you install OS from Microsoft full version CD it is very important to install common modules first. In my opinion, you should install new OS.

    Hello

  • Satellite M10 and update BIOS

    Hello

    trying to make my first laptop BIOS update on my BIOS 1.40 M10. Date of 2003.
    I downloaded version 1.50 updated windows and where to extract the zip file and it starts to run I get "Toshiba common modules is not installed.

    But back to the driver downloads and download Modules common cmod-en20071113104042 and install. Run the BIOS update and I get the same common Modules not installed.
    Anyone can shed some light on my problems?

    The machine performs a clean install of XP Professional Service pack 3 and has BIOS version 1.40 and 512 MB RAM.
    I want to upgrade the RAM and have read on Toshiba takes the M10 supported 2 GB of RAM with the bios update.
    At the minute when I go to crucial.com and scan the system tells me max supported is 1 GB.

    No answers or help would be welcome.

    Hello

    At first, I must say that the BIOS update will not change with the support of RAM. It depends on the hardware platform and not update the BIOS. So it's not going to help at all. Your laptop can handle with 2 GB of RAM maximum end of the story.

    Satellite Pro M10 is old enough laptop model and I am 100% sure, update the BIOS, as a file is OK, but right now, there is no SP3 and I can imagine that there is the problem.
    So if you are satisfied, how does your laptop leave and enjoy this good old classic. Don't don't need BIOS update at all.

  • Satellite Pro U200: Display Resolution changed to 1024 x 768, after sleep (Vista)

    I have some problems with my Satellite Pro U200 (WinVista, BIOS 3.50, Display Driver 7.14.10.1217).

    After the exit mode standby, the display shows the correct resoluion of 1280 x 800 for a second and then goes to 1024 x 768. It's very annoying.

    I tried to uninstall / reinstall the display driver, but it did not help.

    Does anyone have an idea?

    Well, I remember a similar problem happened on U200 with Windows XP and Windows XP MCE.
    The update of the graphics to the version 6.14.10.4543 driver has solved this strange switching

    Maybe the next update of the graphics card driver will clear this issue

    Try to update the BIOS to v3.70

    When I run P0044v370, I get a Windows Script Host message:

    I want to update the BIOS before the upgrade from 1 GB to 4 GB of memory. Also my U200 Pro keeps crashing and whenever before it restarts, I get a message saying something like "try to install the latest version of the BIOS" (it is not on the screen very long sorry can't be more accurate).

    I don't have have the recovery CD, I'm trying to boost performance because it runs very slowly.

    Everything is - I am in your forum people good hands! Thanks in advance.

    You have what Windows OS installed.
    It is Win XP?

    Update the BIOS needs an installation of the common Modules, so don't forget not that the common Modules are installed or this software update.
    The CM is on the page of the European driver Toshiba

    In addition, the P0044v370.exe unpacks the package I recommend creating a folder on the desktop and to decompress the files in P0044v370.exe first. Then move to this new folder and run the exe file in the folder.

  • Updated BIOS for Satellite Pro U200?

    Hello

    does anyone have any experience with BIOS version 1.3 for Satellite Pro U200? I've upgraded to this version of the BIOS and have had several problems since then - shortened wireless keyboard does not and display the overflowing of installation brightness to name two.

    In addition, as I noticed last week, upgrading the BIOS can not be downloaded more and there is no alternative - just says download page don't: "no BIOS upgrade for this product! Is there anyone that has 1.2 BIOS so that I can try to downgrade to this version?

    What is your experience with BIOS 1.3?

    Hello

    It s really strange?  :|
    I checked the BIOS for Satellite U200 and Satellite Pro U200 download section, but I put t found any BIOS download at this time.

    A few years ago the authorized service provider has installed an older version of the BIOS on my Tecra friends unit.
    I guess that he should be able to do it on your Satellite Pro U200.
    The other possibility is to wait for a newer version of the BIOS.

  • Set password Linux ATA hard drive / Toshiba Satellite Pro U200

    Sorry for the long post, but I want to be as specific as possible:

    1)
    I use a Toshiba Satellite Pro U200 under Linux (OpenSUSE) for some years now. Works fine without problems so far, even the fingerprint reader works. I deleted and never used the Windows XP preinstalled.

    For security reasons, I have now decided to put a HDD ATA password, in case the laptop is lost or stolen (changed drive for a disk Seagate Momentus 7200 FDE.2 SATA II with full encryption of the disk material).

    In order to get the protection offered by the full disk encryption, I need to set a password for the ATA. During startup, the Bios must request the password and unlock the drive only when the password is correct.

    2)
    My problem is: in the Toshiba laptop it is impossible to set the hard drive ATA password directly in the bios (as is possible in HP laptops, for example). Toshiba there is only one way to set the password to disk, which is a software utility for Windows XP (named 'Assist'). But I don't want to change the operating system only to set this password.

    3)
    Therefore, I tried the linux instructions

    hdparm - user-master m - security-all-pass SecretMasterPassword/dev/sda
    hdparm - user-master u - security-all-pass SecretUserPassword/dev/sda

    which are used for adjustment ATA passwords. Indeed, at first, it seems to work very well. The password is set and the drive is locked.

    4)
    When I restart the laptop, the Bios the HDD password request, as it should do.

    But he does not accept the SecretUserPassword prior to seizure. The answer is "wrong password", or similar.

    5)
    Analysis:

    I have no doubt that the password has been set correctly: I checked by restarting the laptop through rescue DVD in linux and unlock the disc via

    hdparm - user-master u - safety - unlock SecretUserPassword/dev/sda

    in order to use it. No problem, it works as supposed to. After the release, the disc is usable as usual. And I can also disable the password via

    hdparm - user-master u - security - disable SecretUserPassword/dev/sda

    After you disable the password, the laptop starts normally again, but I have no password.

    When I re-enable the password bios Toshiba again asks the password during initialization, but does not accept the (correct) password on entry.

    6)
    Does anyone have an explanation for this behavior?

    Bios Toshiba has somehow changes the password entered by the user, before being sent to the disk? I think that this would be inconsistent with the ATA standard.

    Anyone managed to set/change the password to ATA in a way that the disc can be unlocked via the internal order of the Bios, without installation of Windows XP and the Toshiba Software 'Assist '?

    Thanks for reading this long post so far. Any response is welcome.

    Hello

    As you probably know Linux is not supported by Toshiba and if you n t get some good advice here I recommend you to visit a few Linux forums and try to discuss with experts in Linux it.
