  For clean installation try to download Microsoft Media creation tool first. Using the tool, you can download a copy of the Win 8.1 installer. Save 8.1 only and not the PRO. During installation, the installation program does not the product key but it detect automatically your bios.

  You will need to place the ssd instead of the original location of the hard drive to boot successfully.

• Satellite 1900-303: the optical drive replacement

  Hello

  Are there opportunities to replace the optical drive of this model? With or without a screwdriver? I want to replace the drive combo of origin (without work) by the other Toshiba combo drive. Can I replace the optical drive or only the Toshiba official centres can do this operation (simply)?

  Thank you very much

  André - Portugal

  Hi Andre,

  Change your optical drive is pretty easy (with a screwdriver). your player is usually set with one or more screws and once these are removed the reader can be slipped out of position.

  You can then remove the plastic trim of the components of the original drive and install them on your new drive (unless a new one is delivered complete with all the accessories). You will also need to remove the metal from your old drive brackets since they will have to be placed on your new drive.

  Insert the new drive in your laptop computer and fix it with the screws that you removed in the original.

  When you start your laptop should automatically detect the new drive. Note that the boot process may be slower than normal because the system will get the proper drivers etc for your reader doesn't and will update your configuration with the new information files.

  The important thing is to get a new optical drive with the same dimensions as the original.

• Satelitte P850-132: optical drive read DVD but not CD

  Hello

  I have a P850-132 of Satellite of Toshiba (PSPKAE) with a Mat * one optical drive DVD-RAM UJ8B0.

  I have the latest drivers for the optical drive installed (6.1.7601.17514).

  Problem: Reads DVD very well, but cannot read the CD.

  When you try to play a CD, the player makes a low clicking noise: ~ 4 quick clicks, then a second of silence, ~ 4 quick clicks... The player repeats this model by clicking silence/4 times, then goes silent. Nothing else happens.

  The drive is defective? Is there an easy way to check if it is?

  The pointers will be deeply appreciated :)

  Hello

  Looks like the laser lens is unable to read data from the CD.
  Try to clean the lens of the laser using a fluid tip and alcohol of wadding.
  In my case it helped to get the other disk works on my laptop.

  My Satellite a200 - 28 p used to read CDs and DVDs, but all of a sudden does not recognize cd or recordable cd brand he does not even recognize the recovery disc came with my laptop.

  I only got November laptop of Dixon's so ask why I'm having this problem when it is relatively new. It is a hardware problem software? All patches, easy?

  When I insert the disk and go to my computer it does not there be a disc in the drive of dvd - rw at all. When I double click on the dvd - rw drive, the Player automatically opens and I am asked to insert a disk, even if there is already in the drive.

  Help! : o).

  Hello!

  I agree with Akuma. Try removing the upper and lower filters that is also described in this paper to Toshiba:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7801XL0000R01.htm

  If it doesn't work try to boot from a bootable CD or DVD. So you can make sure if it s a software or hardware problem.

  Good bye

  It is possible that your DVD drive incorrect region settings.

• Satellite U300 - 13 M - port external monitor (VGA port) does not work

  Dear users of Forums from Toshiba,

  I have a problem with the VGA port. I use the Windows XP operating system. Laptop, do not display on an external monitor, I tried all monitors to connect to my office, but does not solve this problem. I also tried to reinstall Windows XP, once again, and nothing has changed.

  Please help me.

  Best regards, Elbrus

  Hello

  I guess that by Satellite U300 came preinstalled with Vista. Am I right about that?
  Anyway, if you want to use external monitor and switch successfully to him you must install the utilities and tools of Toshiba. There are several of them and allows you to use the FN + F5 key combination and move your desktop to laptop LCD display to the external monitor.

  Can you please tell me one thing: have you installed all the stuff of the Toshiba download page according to document Instructions of facilities?
  The configuration of the laptop is not known to me, but try please check the Intel properties and let me know if the external monitor is recognized in properties. Usually, you can choose to use the external monitor there.

  You can also start Toshiba HWsetup utility. There must be tab display. There you can also find an option to use the LCD screen + monitor at startup.

  Check it out please and post the results.

• Satellite A20 - CD/DVD doesn't read any type of disc

  I just got a used Satellite A20. Former owner uninstalled programs, and now the CD/DVD doesn't read any type of disc. It has worked well for the former owner.

  Satellite A20C - 0231Q Windows XP - Home drive SD-R2412

  In the bios a cd-rom drive is listed
  In Control Panel, the drive is listed, but with a yellow triangle and a message indicating that the device cannot be used... driver problem?

  Is there a way to locate the driver for an older machine, install it, without making a complete recovery (as the cd player does not work?)? I noticed that the driver Announces began with the Satellite A - 200.

  Any suggestions will be appreciated!
  Thank you!

  Boarder's right. If the drive is listed in the device with the yellow exclamation point manager and the drive is not listed in Windows Explorer, you can resolve following the method described in the document of Microsoft.
  After reboot everything should be ok again.

• Satellite P100: 5-in-1 reader with XD but not working with SD cards

  Hello

  I have a problem with my satellite P100, the 5-in-1 reader successfully read SD and XD cards, but since 3 days ago (no upgrade, or any new software), it still works perfectly well for XD cards, but no more for SD cards. When I insert an XD card, I get a drive letter, with an SD card and tried several other different, nothing happens, as if they did not exist.

  I am running Win2k server, and the problem started about 3 days ago.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  How about the update driver?
  As suggested go to Device Manager, select the card reader and reinstall the driver.
  What you can do, is also to remove it from the Device Manager and after new OS restart, the drive should be recognized again.
  In this case, the driver must be initialized again. Check it out.

  Another question. Have you used the option remove? Usually if you want to remove the card or disconnect the USB device you should use first remove it safely and then you can remove the card from the slot. Don t forget.

• 1 TB external hard drive works on XP but not Windows 7

  1 TB Toshiba external hard drive.

  It works on my laptop that runs Windows XP bot not on the laptop that is running Windows 7, if the hard disk works. It also works on Vista.

  My Seagate (320 GB) hard drive works on the Windows 7 laptop - so the USB ports are not defective.

  When I plug the hard 1 TB drive that it appears not on the Manager list of devices, or the title of the disk management, still green light from the disk hard flashes and lights up like it normally does when plugged into the laptop XP.

  I have read all the forums and tried the following: edited the Registery values for mass storage devices USB (deleted and lower filters);  Edited the "Usbstor" INF file as suggested check, the Toshiba site for any compatibility issues, and they have suggested that it is a problem of windows 7, given that the player works on other platforms.

  Because the disc is not visible in device etc Manager I can't try the other options.

  Any input would be appreciated

  I found the problem to be with the controller Toshiba uses on their external hard drives.

  I removed the hard drive Toshiba of the carcass, put it in an envelope of SeaGate (thus using a SeaGate controller) and it worked fine.

  To my knowledge there is no software around HD Ext Toshiba and W7 work. Take the HD out of the envelope, buy a cheap eSATA to USB connector & problem solved.
