  Hello

  The replacement of internal devices is not easy and a little risky.
  I wouldn't recommend replacing the cooling module yourself.
  You might damage it something on the map and as you know the motherboard is costly parts of the laptop. The manuals are not published because these documents are only for technicians and service partners.
  So I think you should ask a service partner to help him because these guys have more experience in these procedures.

  I found a site online with the memory modules for Satellite M30 344
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=6958&ft=m&St=3

  You can find properties of * Panel-> mouse-> device (last tab)-> settings button settings *.

  There are a few options. You must choose the option called Dual mode

• Satellite U400: Installation of XP and change the partitions

  Hello!

  First of all, sorry for my English, it is not good, I hope you understand me!

  I have a Satellite U400, and I would like to create a partition to install XP and have a dual boot with Vista.

  My first question is:
  I have seen that it is possible to download all the drivers xp... but they are the only upgrade, or in the book there is not driver for Xp in default?
  I need to install any drivers? And when I install it?
  Immediately after the first installation of XP?

  The second question is: I tried to resize the Vista partition, but Vista says it's impossible resize as much as I want to, because of file sharing and the snapshot.
  Can you help me solve this problem too?

  Thank you for your support!

  Bye!

  As to the question;

  (* 1) * first of all, you should check what model number you have. Driver Toshiba page provide XP drivers for 4 different U400 series.
  XP drivers that are released in the page are the most recent versions and if you want to use all the features of the laptop all the XP drivers must be installed after the installation of XP operating system.

  But before you try to install XP, you must include the SATA driver in XP. The SATA drivers are located in the Intel storage Manger.
  Please also check this forum for more information how to include the driver SATA in XP operating system.

  (* 2) * I guess you cannot shrink the partition because Vista needs a part on the partition for paging.
  It is an OS feature that allows you to use the HDD as RAM temporal.

  Please visit this 3rd party for more details:
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/Understanding-Windows-Vista-paging-file-size/

  In your case, I would leave a few more space on the partition to make sure that this feature might work properly.

• Re: Satellite A210 - 11 p: how to change the GPU shared memory

  Hi all,
  I recently bought this laptop with 2 GB of memory.
  I just bought 4 GB of Crucial, after doing the scan and it recommends the right Ram purchase.

  I installed it and when check in information system's watch than 3.3 GB.
  Now that I'm confused because according to this specification on blocks:

  «Graphic adapter: memory: 256 MB of VRAM dedicated (up to 1,023 MB memory graphics available using technology HyperMemory with 2 GB of system memory total) "»

  It seems that the graphics adapter card has took a little of my memory of the system.
  How can I change the settings so that it used only 256 MB or just a little more? I can't find a way to Vista.

  Ta

  * waves *.

  Please check this Toshiba document on this subject of 3.3 GB memory.
  http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7601WE0007R01.htm

  The windows and the BIOS cannot recognize all of the 4 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit system.
  System resources need of addressing which overlaps physical memory below 4 GB.
  These requirements can reduce available addressable memory space to and reported by the operating system

  The GPU sharing only 256 MB.

  PS: I read somewhere on the net that the new Vista SP1 which is officially available in 2008 has solved the problem with limitation of 32-bit system

• Satellite P300 - 1DT PSPCCE - how to change the keyboard

  Hello

  I am looking for documentation of disassembly for my laptop.
  I need to change the keyboard. I have 2 letters that are broken.

  Thanks a lot

  Clickservce

  Hello

  Disassembly guides are not for the public, you can download the manual on the official website of Toshiba. I've never seen there other documentation.

  In any case, exchange of keyboard should not be complicated. Just remove the keyboard between the speakers and the keyboard stand. After that, you can lift the keyboard itself but be careful with the keyboard under the keyboard cable. You must remove it also.

  Good luck! :)

  How can I clean the fan overheating? I can't open my laptop (Satellite A30) on the back for a screw is damaged. is there an alternative?

  * {color: #000000}
  Thanks for your comments! {color} *.

  You can use a jet of compressed air to clean the cooling fans.
  This air jet can be bought from most of the dealers for laptop and computer.

  Then you could try blowing through the vents to get rid of dust and debris.
  For the most part this procedure simply help!

  If the laptop overheats again, contact a technician for laptop for further assistance.

  Hello!

  These technical manuals do you mean are not public you won't find one. As far as I know they available only authorized for service providers.

  But for cleaning a laptop you n t need a technical manual. You can use compressed air jet, because then you don't have to disassemble the laptop. Blow gently and little time depression of the air holes of the case of the machine where the hollow air flow. This could eliminate the dust from the cooling fans.
  I clean my cell phone every 3 months and I never had any problems with it.

  In addition, this Toshiba document could be useful for you:

  Hello

  In my opinion do not open anything. On this way the warranty will be cancelled and if you are not familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can damage something.

  As Tobi said, you can use your vacuum cleaner or contact your local dealer or the service partner for professional cleaning. I put t really know how much it costs, but you can pick up the info on it.

  Good bye
