• Satellite Pro U300 - DVD Player error

  Hello
  I had not used my DVD player for a long time, and when I tried to use it again the other day that he has stopped working. Where to insert the DVD and the DVD player provided Toshiba starts a message pops up saying
  "Impossible for the release of the video on an external device. "Please change your display keys of the device by pressing the Fn + F5 after the end of the application.

  I did what he said and further and have made sure the computer does not recognize somehow, another device connected to my laptop. All that shows is the LCD screen of the laptop and nothing more. No clue as to how can I fix? I don't have an external display at the moment as im at Uni. so I can't plug a hook to the top and see if it works like that and then properly close. Any other suggestions? Would be great,

  Thank you

• Satellite Pro U300 - DVD no longer appears in my computer XP Pro

  My laptop CD/DVD burner was working fine. Recently, it has disappeared from my computer, won't play audio CDs, etc. The rounds-up OK DVD player when a disc is inserted for the reader is not quite dead. Please help it's driving me crazy. Shmoo

  I have a proposed solution, but I put t know if it will help you must try it simply;

  Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list CD/DVD
  Then access 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}

  Then restart the laptop and allows windows to reinstall the CD/DVD drive again.

• Satellite Pro A210 DVD Drive not working no-error code 39

  Hi all

  My Satellite Pro A210 dvd player does not load.
  When I looked inside, he showed an error code 39.
  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it still doesn't work.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the 39 error message appears if the CD/DVD drive is not visible in my computer.
  You can try this workaround:
  Go to Device Manager and remove the drive CD/DVD from the list of devices.
  Then go to the registry (regedit) and remove upper and lower key filters:

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

  Then restart the device and test again
  I think this should help!

• Satellite Pro U300: Cannot see the HARD drive during the installation of XP

  Due to the restrictions of the network must downgrade the operating system on a new satellite Pro U300. I am unable to run the XP + sp2 cd as it says there is no hard drive installed on the machine. I guess it's because I need 3 scsi drivers or third-party raid.

  Does anyone have these or know a place where I can get my hands on them? Or am I completely off the mark that you have another solution?

  Hello

  You need the Intel Matrix Storage Management utility for the management of your local storage, including the RAID support.

  On the European driver Toshiba page I found Robson tea for Vista package which includes the Intel Matrix Storage Management utility.

  The same can be downloaded from the Intel page for the XP operating system.

  I found this on the page of Intel:
  http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Filter_Results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OS FullName = Windows * + XP + Professional & lang = eng & strOSs = 44 & submit = Go %21

• Satellite Pro U300: Error Message: cable is disconnected, but Lan cable is connected

  Hello

  I have problem with interface ethernet (wired) in my Satellite Pro U300. I use in many places (home, office, customers) and when I restore in sleep or hibernation mode interface ethernet shows that the * cable is disconnected *, despite the connection of the cable * is * connected and works perfectly with all other devices, laptops and PC.

  The switch also shows that the there no signal link. But re - activate the malfunctioning ethernet port, just disable the ethernet interface and then after 5s (1 s is too short!) turn on.

  Then a baloon in taskbar window indicates that there are 10 Mbit/s link, but actually, the link works at 100 Mbps (I can see it in the connection status window and the ethernet LEDs switch). This is the only laptop that has this kind of problems.

  I have the latest version of the installed ethernet 5.664.205.2007 driver on Win XP SP2.

  Is it possible I'm getting rid of turn on interface ethernet several times per day (except change laptop)?

  Hello

  I put t have a real solution but I have a few proposals of solution

  First of all, you should check in Device Manager if the network card has been properly recognized. The Ethernet card should be listed under network without any yellow exclamation point cards.

  If the network adapter has been properly recognized, then the next step should be checking the properties of the LAN connection.
  There, you should check the properties of the TCP/IP protocol.
  The settings such as IP address automatically get & address of DNS server automatically get must be marked.

• Can not install the latest driver from Intel on my Satellite Pro U300-10 display

  Hello

  Intel has recently, a new display driver, which I think is useful to me because it won't let me play games that require:
  Pixel Shader PS1.1
  Vertex Shader VS 1.0
  "Act of war" and others.

  The pilot is the revision of the pilot: 15.12.4.1666, March 5, 2009
  It is supossed to be the latest driver for the video card U300: MOBILE INTEL 965 Express chipset family.

  The problem is that when I try to install, I have an error that says: "not for this system, ask your provider manufacturer.

  How can I install or where I could find the solution?

  I have TOSHIBA Satellite Pro U300-10 with Windows Vista Business 32.
  MOBILE INTEL 965 Express chipset family
  MOBILE INTEL GMA X 3100

  Thank you much in advance.

  Drivers designed for laptops are changed and adapted to provide performance fairly, but not to force a graphics card to run on the limit. As you probably know there are big difference between office and mobile graphics cards.

  Desktop graphics cards have no limits with cooling and drivers can be updated very often. Design of portable computers is completely different and all hardware components are placed on the square. The common problem with laptops is to design the system of cooling, small but effective.
  Because of all these reasons, display drivers must be tested and adapted by the laptop manufacturers. The main point is to protect the material. The same situation is with other manufacturers of graphics card. They don't offer drivers for laptops.

  If your graphics card will blow that will be responsible for this Toshiba or Intel?

  By the way: Satellite Pro U300 is for me a laptop of small business and certainly not designed for games. Do you agree with me?

• Satellite Pro U300 shows "Unmountable_Boot_Volume" message

  I hope someone can help me...

  I have a Satellite Pro U300 and recently she comes with a stop with the message Unmountable_Boot_Volume error screen.

  Starting the machine, told me that windows did not start properly due to a problem of HW or SW. I gives me the options to start windows normally, go back to the last good configuration known or open in safe mode, however all these lead to the error message Unmountable_Boot_Volume.

  I am responsible to ensure that all new HW or SW is installed correctly and disable them if necessary. However, I have not installed anything recently and the computer was working fine.

  The error message appears for 4 seconds, and then the computer restarts and appears with the same startup message and continues in this circle reboot after each stop error message.

  I'm not a computer whizz as you probably can, but I would be very happy if someone knows what happened to my computer!

  Sometimes the file system can get damaged due to power outages or viruses or bad RAM.

  First of all, you should check the disk for bad sectors. Run the test Advanced in DFT (it is a bootable CD or a floppy disk):
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT

  Then, try to fix the file system by plugging the drive on another PC using a USB 2.5 "SATA HDD adapter. Run CHKDSK on the drive.

  If this does not work, you can try to repair Windows by going to the Recovery Options in the Windows Start Menu (press F8 before Windows starts).

• When the capacity of the battery falls Satellite Pro U300 occasionally lose power

  Hello

  I suspect you have a defective battery (standard installed on the laptop) on my new Satellite Pro U300 - 11 k and I wonder if someone had a similar problem.
  When the power drops to 10%, my laptop occasionally loses power. In the range of less than 7% capacity always loses power, i.e. either fails to start the hibernation, or is unable to complete the process (I can always tell if power was lost during hibernation because of the characteristic of the system of protection HD sound). I did several tests, especially in the power saving mode. "High performance" mode power seems to be a little more reliable, but still fails to shut down less than 5% of the capacity. The level of Hibernate by default on the Toshiba Windows Vista pack is as low as 2%, so I can wait until it is able to work at this level.

  Overall the battery capacity is about 1 h (Media Player, fashion high performance, maximum intensity) at all about 2 to 2.5 hours (slowed or text editor, mode, brightness low power saving). Charging time is about 1 hour (seems too short). They are difficult to objectively assess that Toshiba avoids quoting the specifications of the battery, but I consider the question of the reliability of the above as being a serious (do not want to take the risk of damaging the HD). I am considering visiting the service center, but leaving both the computer and the battery with them would be a nuisance for me and I would rather avoid it if I can. I wonder if I can claim the warranty on the battery alone?

  Any suggestions would be welcome.

  Background information:
  -The U300 is a few weeks old.
  -The battery has been fully charged and discharged (approximately 15 times since purchase).
  -Cooldown takes 1 h - 1.5hrs
  -J' using Vista Business
  -J' went through the power settings to make sure they are ok and to change threshold levels
  -I am an experienced business user, I use a laptop computer at work which stops always perfectly to the power level of 3%

  Thanks for help

  Hello

  > Overall the battery capacity is about 1 hour (Media Player, fashion high performance, maximum intensity) at all about 2 to 2.5 hours (slowed or text editor, mode, brightness low power saving). Charging time is about 1 hour (seems too short).

  Reading your post, I do see no battery issues! Everything you say is right and not a malfunction.
  Please note that the Vista operating system needs much more computing resources and the battery is much more emphasized running Vista!

  Please also note that the level and time to discharge the battery can be different! Everything depands of the use of the laptop!
  All the portable devices and parts waste the power of the battery at the same time and that's why there are differences in the discharge procedure.

  Don t be afraid and take advantage of your laptop but if you think you will need to contact the ASP in order to clarify this issue, then feel free to contact service technician.
  They should be able to help you.

• Satellite Pro U300 PSU31E - two how to adjust the fan speed

  While using the laptop the fan comes in for a few seconds and then stops again, which causes the temperature
  increase... what makes the fan?
  Throttle upward rather than stay in a slow to medium status.

  I'm running Vista Business, but I did ' t find the parameters in this regard.

  In the ACPI BIOS is not accessible, but as already posted my problem looks a bit like this:

  Re: ACPI fan on Satellite L30
  Posted the: 13-Sep-2007 22:08 reply

  The fan goes in cycles like this:
  ------------------
  Less than 50, fan
  When > 55, fan to full
  When< 55,="" fan="" on="">
  When< 50,="" fan="" off="">
  and it continues

  ------------------

  It would be much better than when he went to more than 50 years she just spend on bass, then
  It would never reach 55 and never go up.
  And the laptop would be 100 x more silent.

  Another thing: the Germany from Toshiba support page won't load at all or is the global page
  very slow, using different locations and conections. That I can not retrieve all the information to help me.
  And I do not think the University backbone or my DSL 6 Mbps at home is the problem

  Hello

  The fans begin to turn only if a certain temperature point has been reached.
  These fan table information is stored in the BIOS and cannot be changed.

  Some computers laptops satellite supports an additional option in the Toshiba HWSetup. It allows to change the CPU dynamically switchable or always low frequency mode.
  This would set the temperature to a lower level and the fans would lead occasionally.

  In any case, to my knowledge, this option is not available in the Toshiba HWSetup and not in the BIOS so I guess that it s not possible to control fan behavior.

  By the way; If you wish, you can test a tool like aSpeedFanfreeware.
  This program can control the speed of the fans according to the temperatures of the system.
  Maybe it will work on your Satellite Pro U300

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro U300: Need to NDIS drivers to create a Ghost boot disk

  Anyone has any hint where to get?

  I need to create a floppy disk to boot ghost to take an image of a satellite Pro U300 but cannot find the correct drivers to NDIS.

  All current drivers are placed on the page of the Toshiba driver.
  But these drivers are designed for installation only in the windows environment.

  But if you need no special driver for the network you should take a look at the Intel page or do a search on the Microsoft pages too.

  Good luck

• FN + F10/F11/F12 in Satellite Pro U300 does not work

  Guys,

  need your help...
  I have the Satellite Pro U300 series and most recently the numbers four and six obtained busted... its does not work so I try to use the superposition of numeric keypad but I have observed that after pressing FN + F11 nothing happens...

  Please help me...

  Thank you
  <>

  Hello

  When you use FN + F11 small control LED must be lit and the keypad must be enabled.
  If your laptop is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image this option SHOULD work correctly.

  So nobody here knows what you did with your laptop and why these options are not available more.
  Before you start with advice how to get this working again once please let us know what operating system is preinstalled on your Satellite Pro U400.

• Satellite Pro U300-14R - no audio detected

  Hi all

  My Satellite Pro U300-14R detects no audio. I tried almost everything to solve this problem, including the update of the BIOS, driver sound driver chipset, etc.

  Still, there is no sound in my system. Not at all even when I load the sound system.

  I checked under sounds and Audio Devices Properties (Control Panel). Everything is disabled.

  Hope that someone would be able to help me.

  See you soon

  George

  Hey,.

  What operating system you have?

  You must install Service Pack 3 for Windows XP, because it contains important fixes for the sound card drivers.
