Satellite S1900-303 needs new DVD/CD player

The DVD/CD on my Satellite S1900-303 drive needs to be replaced (not surprising given the age of the laptop!) It was purchased in January 2003 and is still going strong

I would like to replace the old disk with a DVD R/W drive. Can anyone suggest a compatible replacement unit and where can I buy a home?

The mounting is a replacement DVD R/W drive something I can do myself (I'm an electrician by profession engineer)

The operating system is XP SP3. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Please refer to the manuals of s use and you will find the list of all compatible optical disc drives that can be used with this old notebook.
Where to buy? For me, it's a question completely unnecessary because we don t know where do you live and if I find a drive to the Japan I m wondering if this info will help you.

Use Google for your country, put the ODD model number and see if you can find a store online in your country where you can order.

I would highly recommend you to check eBay. You will find many parts Toshiba and such ODD, you can get for less money. I mean why spend a lot of money for new ODD if you can use the one used.
Satellite 1900 is very old model of laptop, and I think that you should not spend a lot of money.

  • Satellite S1900-303: ATI Mobility Radeon M6 Hangging upward

    Sometimes, the display freezes on my Satellite S1900-303. The laptop always uses the original graphics card ATI Mobility Radeon M6, with driver version 6.13.10.6052 dated dated 22/03/2002.

    Can anyone tell if the latest driver available for the graphics card ATI Mobility Radeon M6? I tried the ATI (now AMD) & Toshiba sites without a bit of luck.

    The outgoing ATI Mobility Radeon M6 graphics card can be replaced with a more up-to-date map that will not crash?

    Any help or advice would be appreciated.

    Eh, I've had this laptop for the year 2003 model and it was pretty good laptop.
    Currently, I have used original recovery image with the latest updates from Microsoft.

    Now you have SP3 and probably a lot of new software pre-installed on it. Who knows why this is happening there?
    When you say that the display freezes sometimes does that mean exactly? Does make some operations or what?

    It is not easy to provide support for this old piece of hardware.
    Latest driver? I don t think you find it.
    Update graphics card? Forget it. Laptop is not designed for these upgrades.

  • After the reinstallation of the operating system, can't listen to music on my Satellite S1900-303

    Hello.
    I have a Satellite S1900-303 and yesterday I formatted it and reinstalled the XP system.

    After that I can't listen absolotely any audio device, even with speakers or headphones. I downloaded from this site, the correct driver, I checked the volume and all stetings, but nothing to do when I play an audio file, it seems it's ok, but I hear no voice to the chapter. What should I do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Check Device Manager if the sound card appears correctly and that the driver has been installed successfully.
    Then check the wheel for volume control on the left side.

    AFAIK the Soundfusion Audio application should be pre-installed on this laptop. You should find it in the control manager. There you can set up the speakers.

    The last possibility is to check the sounds and audio devices section you can find also in the control manager.
    Check that the 'secret' is not marked. Check all controllers (also advanced options) and try to put it at high level.

  • Update wireless Toshiba Satellite S1900-303: what wi - fi card is compatible?

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite S1900-303.

    I would like to add a Mini PCI WiFi card, the laptop is capable of wireless, as it was an optional upgrade. The wireless antenna is here and the switch and the PCI slot.

    I tried using a 2200 GB Intel Pro/Set wireless card but may not turn on,
    So I tried a (number PA3458U-1MPC) Atheros wireless card but I can not pass it as well.

    There is no option in the Bios to enable

    I tried Fn - F8 to swith the card wireless on but nothing happens and the wireless light not, but if I turn on the wireless switch, then press Fn - F8 it came as "Wireless has been disabled, please make sure that the wireless switch has been turn on.

    Any suggestions? What could I have been hurt, or did the two cards are incompatible with this laptop?

    If so what Wireless mini Pci card would work?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I found the info that the mini PCI WiFi card part number: PA3212U-1MPC could be compatible.
    There seems to be an Intel Pro 2100 wireless network card that supports the 802. 11b standard Wlan.

  • Satellite S1900-704: disc upgrade DVD SD-R6012?

    Computer is Satellite S1900-704, 3 years old. Someone can propose a update DVD player that I can use to upgrade this computer or is the SD-R6012 always the best available? I see many of them on Ebay. I thought that there could be a 'slot' loading disc now that these type of "bac" are a bit old style. I'm looking for the net everywhere for a solution, so if I find one, I'll post it here. Thank you, John

    Hi John,.

    I replaced the DVD drive on my SA30 with a carpet * a UJ825S which is a much more convenient loading slot format which is much less easily damaged when my grandson try to use it.

    I'm sure that you'll be able to find adequate housing of loading for your S1900.

  • Satellite A300 - I need new graphics drivers for games

    I have the Satellite A300 and the graphics drivers are so old; round a year or two.
    ATI got 9.3 and release tomorrow 9.4.

    I can t use them because ATi say it is Toshiba s responsibility to make them for laptops. S Toshiba drivers are a year old, so that a customer can do now?

    Some games like WOW sometimes crashes and it's graphics card problem.
    Doesn't that I paid for support or I got the satellite with full support?

    Just wanted to know if the next time I'll get a laptop among other things choose manufactures

    Why will you need new drivers?
    I think that WOW (World of Warcraft?) is not the most recent game and older drivers should also work for this.
    So do you need a new driver display for what games?

    A few problems in games could be resolved with a patch. Did you check that?

  • Satellite U400-183 - need Recovery DVD and AHCI drivers

    Hello

    I tried to reinstall Win Vista Home Premium to my Satellite U400-183. I used a DVD OS Win that came with my other laptop to other manufacturing and the key that came with my Toshiba laptop. Everything works beautifully, but in some areas of Windows is still some specific parameters of the manufacturing on the other. Now is it possible to get a DVD of Windows Vista Toshiba?

    Another question is where can I get the AHCI drivers. There is only an exe file on the support site which I can't use during the installation of Windows. There must be some these .sys files, but I can't find them on the Toshiba site, so I had to install Windows in compatibility mode.

    Thanks in advance!

    PS: Sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Germany...

    Hello!

    A new recovery DVDs, you can get your local ASP (authorized service provider).
    Or you order a DVD from Toshiba directly:
    https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

    The AHCI drivers or let say Intel Storage Manager, you can download from the Toshiba site as you have already said.
    The .exe file, you must check out to use during the installation, but with the recovery disk you n t need them.
    Please read the readme file in the Storage Manager, there is an example how to extract it. Use the command line what it
    For example: - a - a - PC:------.

  • Satellite P500-1DZ - need new fan coling

    Hi all.

    I bought satellite P500-1DZ - Model - Toshiba PSPGSE in July of last year. The first 2 months were great. Since then, my fan made stronger and stronger noises. It's to the point now where just create a Web site on wix, or using any piece of software that uses the power of remote processing, the computer begins to slow down. It's like im working on a pc from the stone age. To make things worse, I bought the product in England and now live in Poland.

    I don't think I can use my warranty, simply because I can't afford to be without my computer for 2 months, while he was expelled for repair. So I opted to buy a new fan and get this replaced myself. However... There is no information anywhere regarding
    (a) what fan (s), I need to buy.
    (b) where to buy them.

    Toshiba... could you please write me to my e-mail and explain a) your return policy for fixing through the manufacturer's warranty for people who have moved to a new country. and (b) tell me where I can buy replacement fan (s) and I would like to address this issue through your warranty or my own merit.

    I want my computer ultra-fast return :(

    Hey,.

    > I bought the product in England and now live in Poland.
    This should t be a problem because you bought a European model for laptop in Europe and now you are still living in Europe. This would mean that you can contact the local authorized maintainer in Poland and seek redress. I m that guys can fix your laptop because an ASP can control all parts of Toshiba.

    Of course, you can try to fix this problem yourself but you need to know what you're doing because laptop disassembly is delicate and many parts must be removed.
    If you want to continue to do, get also in touch with an authorized service provider because they can order spares from Toshiba.

    Here is a list of the aspic:
