Screen jumping and overheating issues on my Satellite Pro M30

Hey everybody!

I have a Satellite Pro M30, the screen seems to wobble a bit, probably due to a loose hinge. Can you please help me with this problem?
In addition, my laptop seems to overheat, how do I clean the dust to stop overheating?

Thank you

Hi mate!
For the screen issue. As it is a hardware thing, I suggest that contact you a local ASP. Of course, you can try by yourself to this problem, but I can say from my own, fitting the screen isn't the easy thing to do on your own, if you have no experience in that.

To clean your laptop from dust, you can use compressed air jet. Also make sure the cooling modules are not blocked by objects on your table, because if you've blocked, warm air ponds and cannot be updated.

  • Satellite Pro M30 and eSATA

    Hi all

    I recently bought the external drive western digital mybook premium ARE. This disc has an eSATA (external SATA) port.

    The problem is that my satellite pro m30 (model #: psm35e0021jar) is not the external SATA port. I found an ADDONICS (eSATA, ExpressCard 34) and another similar product from SIIG (eSATA II Express Card).

    The question is:

    1.) these products going to be compatible with my fairly old laptop?
    2.) is the hard drive of my laptop SATA technology is or what?
    (3.) what brand of motherboard used in my laptop?

    Thanks in advance and I cannot wait for the answers.

    Hello

    1.) these 3 products of third parties are not known to me, but as you know the Satellite Pro M30 does not support a SATA interface and if you want to upgrade the HARD drive, you will need to use the HARD disk with interface IDE (ATA-5) increased.
    (2.) No, as indicated above the laptop supports the IDE and not SATA
    (3.) the Satellite Pro M30 using motherboards Toshiba ;)

    A hint; If you have a SATA HDD, you can use it as a external HARD drive. This HARD disk can be connected via external USB sata controller.

    Hi Dennis,

    Using the Toshiba power management or standard options of Microsoft?

    I would recommend the Toshiba utility, as this will allow you to set various options, including the brightness of the display.

    You should be able to set options for power supply and power of the battery of your choice, then save them so that they will be called automatically when you start your laptop.

    Power options are available from the control panel.

  • Toshiba satellite pro m30 USB problem

    I have toshiba satellite pro m30 and HP scanjet 4600 scanner.when I connect the scanner directly to the notebok with its ' original usb cable there is no problem. But if I connect the scanner to the laptop with a laptop usb extension cable cannot initialize the scanner. There is no problem if I connect the scanner to the VAIO laptop with usb extension cable. What can I do?

    Hello

    could you describe the difference between the original USB cable and the USB extension cable?

    The laptop and the printer works correctly with the original USB cable, but it seems that the extension USB cable is an inexpensive which does not fulfill the technical specifications and the laptop has a problem with this issue.

    To solve the problem in my opinion you could do an update of the BIOS, look if for your printer is a new driver available and reinstall the USB drivers.

    Also, you could test whether USB, the same problem occurs with other cables.

  • Satellite Pro M30 - NVIDIA graphics controller problem

    Hello everyone

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 with a Nvidia GeForce FX graphics controller. ([Image of the motherboard | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC3.jpg])

    My problem is when I turn on the PC and wait a few seconds red and white vertical stripes begins to appear on the LCD and it cannot go after the BIOS password screen. I can type the BIOS password but when I hit OK or button that ENTER the laptop freezes. ([See image 2 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC2.jpg])

    In very rare occasions where the laptop was turned off for a long time, I listen to him on and he could overcome the BIOS password screen but freezes after a while: ([see Image 3 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC1.jpg])

    I plugged it to an external monitor and nothing has changed.
    I removed the inverter (responsible for the lightning of the LCD screen) and the problem is still there.

    Always to blame the graphics chip from NVIDIA.
    I read here that it is not possible to replace them because they are soldered to the motherboard. But I want to, where can I get a laptop NVIDIA graphics chip. They sell somewhere?
    I have a friend who works in an electronics manufacturing company (SAGEM) and told me that they have the tools needed to replace any piece on any Board of Directors.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello, my friend

    I agree with you. It must be a faulty graphics card. I put t believe you can buy a graphics chip separately but you can buy mainboard used laptop on eBay. In my view, Exchange Board is no problem for you.

  • How can I reset password BIOS on Satellite Pro M30?

    Hello!

    I have a portable Satellite Pro M30 and my son has changed my bios password and now I can't even start it! How can I reset the bios? Where is the bios battery out of MB, then reset as in desktop? Is there a jumper for the deal if all else fails? What should I try?

    Thank you all in advance.

    John.

    Hello John

    Remove the CMOS battery didn't help much. If the removal of the BIOS can be so easy, remove the password on the stolen units may be too simple. Please don? t wait that these information will be posted here.

    You can contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. They will remove password for you.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite Pro M30: Question Abu support DVI port

    Hello world
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 with a nVidia go5200 graphics card. The nvidia Web page asserts that this graphics card has DVI support (http://www.nvidia.co.uk/page/fx_mobile_fb_5200.html) but I could not connect my apple cinema display to the computer.
    The screen is connected through a DVI vga, but I don't have a 'real' addaptor.

    Does anyone have a solution to my problem?

    Thank you
    Magnus

    Hello

    According to the specification this device doesn't have a DVI - D port and there is no possibility to connect it directly to the unit. This unit video a VGA 15 pins port only. Google all over the place. Maybe you'll find a real adapter.

    If you find something interesting, please let us know. It may be useful for other members of the forum.

  • Satellite Pro M30 graphics works not when the driver is installed

    Hi all

    I m having problems with my nvidia Geforce FX Go5200, in a portable Satellite Pro M30, (processor Intel Pentium M 1.7 GHz, 512 MB Ram). This card was working fine suddenly the laptop stops.

    I formatted the laptop and installed Win XP PRO. After installing the driver VGA, I restarted the laptop, but black screen started to come right after the Win XP splash screen appears. The laptop continues to start up but no screen.

    It starts fine in safe mode. I get my best screen simply by disabling the geforce card or uninstall the driver. I tried to install a new driver for the VGA on the download from Toshiba site, but same problem appears. I also tried the BIOS update but nothing happens.

    Can someone help me?
    [email protected]

    It's very strange question. It will be really interesting to know if this happens when you use the CD delivered recovery facilities.

    In any case, I assume that there is a problem with the LCD display. In safe mode, the desktop appears in the resolution decreases but the resolution to the OS boot will be suitable for a standard (1280 x 800), and of course, there is the problem.

    I am not a technician, but I recommend you contact the Service partner. AFAIK they use special tools and programs for display tests. They can tell you more.

  • Satellite Pro M30: Display settings

    I have a satellite pro m30. does anyone know how to resize the screen. As I am a dj profeshional by trade. I run my show of my laptop. And I need to run at 800 x 600, but it just goes to the middle with a large black border how I re-size it

    Hi Dennis,

    Shoukd you change the resolution of the screen as follows: -.

    Right-click on your desktop and select 'Properties' to open your display properties window. Then select the SETTINGS tab, down on the left side you should see a slider marked "screen resolution." Set this option to change your settings for the display on 800 X 600. Then click APPLY.

  • Upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro M30

    Hi colleagues!

    My comp is Satellite Pro M30-873. He has only 512 MB of main memory.
    I want to spend 1 to 2 GB. Recommended memory is Kingston KTT3311
    which is extremely difficult to buy. A very similar memory of Kingston is KVR333X64SC25.

    It is fully compatible with M30? Anyone tried?

    Thaks a lot in advance

    Hello

    Your laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible 1 GB of RAM except the number PA3313U-1M1G. Use this number for Google search.
    I hope you find somewhere. This module may not be more expensive so I recommend buying 2 of them and the upgrade of RAM maximum.

    Hello

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

    Win XP drivers do not work with Win 7, but you should try some drivers for Vista.
    Try some drivers released for other series...

    Also try this:

    You can go to Device Manager-> properties-> Details tab SC card reader
