Startup satellite M30 problem

Hello

When you try to start, the screen displays simply;

"NTLDR is missing".

Press Ctrl + Alt + Del

When I do that I'm just going through a loop.

I understand that this error message is possiable linked to a drive problem, can you please help?

    Any ideas on whats wrong?

    Hello

    I put t know exactly what's wrong, but I remember these problems might appear if the drivers, tools, and utilities are installed in the correct order.
    The installation instructions document is no doubt placed on the page of the Toshiba driver.
    I recommend that you check these documents

    But why you don t use the Toshiba Recovery CD. This CD allows you to install the operating system with all the necessary tools and drivers much faster and easier.

  • Vsync satellite M30 problem

    I have the centrino 1.6 with 64 MB fx go5200 15.4 "widescreen m30. You can use the new nvidia drivers like 66,10 but only those modified that you can easily find on the net.

    The main problem is that you cannot change the refresh rate that he is stuck on 60 Hz. For this reason, rates of frame for all games are 60 Hz and very slow, even if you use the refresh rate overrides.
    There must be an option to disable similar to menu opengl vsync. I tried the 3rd party applications such as NVRefreshTool 2. 1A, but it didn't fix the problem.

    Anyone has a solution on this. By the way there is a solution on the net about this black border problem that some have. You must search for it.

    As far as I know that Toshiba display driver are supported as the those of Nvidia are not for laptops!

    Do you have this problem with a Toshiba driver held, too?

    What operating system and Service Pack you are using? For XP SP2 might occure problems with different drivers, so you need to update!

  • Modem satellite M30 problem

    Does not my modem (Lucent/Agere?) - (downloaded from the Toshiba site) drivers are installed without problem (no warning in Device Manager), but the modem can not open the (virtual) serial port.
    I tried all the possible drivers and installation plans.
    I installed successfully Nokia mobile (via IR) as a modem and it works without problems. But the internal modem is not able to open the serial port when running test.

    Furthermore, I can't change the settings of resources.

    How to solve the problem, do you have any suggestions?

    Can someone tell me which driver is appropriate (because I still think I need to find the right driver).

    Finally, I do not have the original CD from Toshiba to get the driver... If anyone has the same model and you can send the driver by e-mail, I will be very grateful! (E-mail: [email protected]).

    All the best, David

    Hi gziro,.

  • Strange keyboard on my Satellite M30 problem

    Hello

    I have a problem with the keyboard on my m30. He still thinks that the shift keys are pressed. The only way around this was to disable the two keys in the registry - using an external keyboard.

    External keyboard works perfectly.

    Thinking it was a problem with my keyboard, I replaced the keyboard m30 twice, but still have the same problem, even after a thorough cleaning of my OS.

    Do you think it could be a motherboard problem? It occurred after a year.

    Thank you

    TREV

    Hi trev

    In my opinion just detailed testing can clarify the situation. In my opinion, there is a hardware problem. I think that this keyboard controller is faulty. Maybe I'm wrong, but as far as I know internal and external keyboard don t use the same controller.

    Try to contact the Service partner and ask them what may be the problem. They know what the problem is here.

  • Satellite M30 - problem with the graphics driver and Quicktime movies

    I just installed a 40 GB to 80 GB hard drive and installed all the drivers in the correct order, as indicated by toshiba. Everything works well except the used for Quicktime .mov files. All I get is audio but no image - other than a colorful blur screen!

    I think I've isolated the problem to the graphics driver. Whenever I turned off / uninstall the driver dedicated for the graphics card FX 5200 GP (version 4.6.44) Quicktime files work fine. It is only when I installed the dedicated driver problems occur!

    Can someone tell me why this might be?

    Hello

    Do you use the graphics driver from the Toshiba driver page?

    Try to use the QuickTime Alternative 1.77. In this version the codex QuickTime has been updated.
    This version uses these features:

    -Media Player Classic [version 6.4.9.0 + SVN build 2006-12-24]

  • No satellite M30 604 no display & beeps at startup

    When I turn on my Toshiba Satellite M30 604, there is no display and it is 1 long beep and 2 short beeps

    I know that is not the problem of memory, because I replace it.
    When I remove all memory other beeps can be heard.

    Anyone know what the beeps.

    What can I do?

    I think the beep code is a graphic chip problem. My other laptop (not a Toshiba) gave the same error beep, I had to replace the motherboard.

  • Satellite M30: Unknow Hard Error - could this be a problem of hard drive?

    I got my Satellite M30 for 2 years now and it never gave me any problems, until a few weeks ago. The problem started shortly after I put Windows to SP2, when I played a game it would stick for a minute or two, and then continue on as usual, the problem slowly got worse and started blue screening with "Unknown hard error" and sometimes strange balloon in the lower right corner saying unknown hardware error and then freeze it. It also took a long time to start and generally do nothing.

    Assumed it was a problem when I've upgraded to SP2, so I decided to reinstall Windows and start over again, update the BIOS while I was home.

    Once this is done it seemed fine for an hour or two, but then tried to install a game and of course, the good old blue screen appears and the whole problem starts again.

    I took it to a repair shop and explain the problem and I had re-installed Windows nothing helped, and I suspected that it may be a hardware failure, I left it with them, and 2 days later I get a call saying its all fixed and ready to be picked up, I asked what was wrong with it and they said that they re-installed Windows and sound now works fine (i.e. what I their) I said, I had made and n t worked!). I picked up (and got charged £40 to have done what I had already done). I got it home and everything seemed ok... for a few hours, then blue screens seemed to tell me any physical dumping of beginning and the usual stuff.

    I think it might be a drive problem hard, like when I tried to install a game on it at night last light CD and HARD flash drive, one for about 15 seconds, then the other for a short time, data copied from one to the other, but then the HARD drive light stayed on, and I could hear the HARD disk as if it were sticky , after about a minute of this blue and close short-listed and took some time to turn back. If I leave a couple of hours and it starts fine until the next time.

    So, after my long description on my problem, I have 2 questions,

    1. could I be right in thinking that these problems are associated with hard drive?
    2. If I'm right, is easy to replace on the M30 HARD drive and where I would buy a new?

    Thanks for your time and help,

    Kenny.

    Hello

    The blue screen appears only if you play games?

    But I agree with you. In my opinion, there would really be a hardware malfunction.
    The question is - it s a HARD drive or something different?
    Hmmm. I think that the problem is not related to the disc HARD but maybe overheating?
    According to the publication, sometimes when you play games. The game is a high performance application. All devices running with maximum performance and produce heat.

    I m not 100% sure, but maybe the high temperature has a bad influence on the system and therefore the BSOD happens.
    You suggested that the laptop run properly for about 2 years. Maybe fans can cool properly because of the dust and debris. Two years is a long time if you have not cleaned the cooling modules and fans.

  • Satellite M30 - continuous beep on startup

    Hello

    I hope someone can help. I have a Satellite M30 - around the age of 18 months. When I turn on is comes up with a black screen and beeps continuous, light blue under the Start button / stop flashes constantly and takes a good 20 seconds or more before loading Windows... Only, this has happened for the last week or two.

    Any ideas on what is the problem?

    See you soon

  • Can not turn on the Satellite M30

    Hello everyone...

    I have a Satellite M30 laptop for time enough and I'm having a problem with it. When I try to turn it on, it makes a kind of scratch noise and then nothing happens. The hard drive lit wrath but the computer does no sound and no picture on the screen. I tried to turn it on with and without the battery and the same thing happens.

    A few days before this happened that I could see the windows startup screen, after that the computer crashed, even when I went to the BIOS Setup screen, the computer also crashed, so the problem was not on the hard disk. A few days later, when I tried to turn it back on, it makes a single probe and nothing else happened. Can it be a motherboard problem? can I try before sending it for repair

    I'm scared of m it s a serious problem.
    Depending on the symptoms that you described the laptop cannot get the message and so I think there may be an error on the motherboard.
    I don t think you will be able to locate the fault. It is simply not possible for the common user like you and me

    If you have no choice as to the request of the service provider for Toshiba for help.

  • Satellite M30 don't start more

    Hello

    My Satellite M30 wont start... when I press the power button, the power led lights up, the cd light will blink once and then nothing happens...

    can certain a plez point me in the direction of Scripture?

    Help, please!
    thanx

    Cheerz

    Hello

    You know, without any of the detailed tests we can only suggest what might be wrong.
    I think there must certainly be a hardware problem because I guess that you can not see the start screen for Toshiba at the beginning of the startup procedure.

    It might be something wrong with the motherboard. I put t don't know if this helps but try to remove the power supply and the laptop AC adapter for several times. After 10-15 minutes, you could put the power supply in the notebook and connect the power adapter. Try to start.

    But if it doesn't help then in my opinion, a technician must check the device.
    Sorry for this general suggestion but I think it's the best way to know what's wrong.

  • Satellite M30 - after replacing drive DVD 0203: failure IDE #2 appears

    Hello

    I replaced the DVD unit on my Satellite M30 as it was broken. I installed the same unit (UJ - 820B), but now at startup, I get the error message 0203:Failure IDE #2 with options to continue starting in the operating system or run the Setup program (which does not offer something to solve this problem). The operating system (Windows XP sp2) loads fine, but the DVD unit is not recognized.

    Help!

    Thank you.

    Hi Paul,.

    All optical discs are delivered with a parameter of the base (master, slave, or C/salt) interface configured in the firmware. on PC, readers there are usually small switches to activate this setting to change, but unfortunately on readers portable there is not, so it is very important to make sure the new drive is correctly implemented by the manufacturer of the correct specification for your laptop.

    If you got the new drive to an ASP then you will need to confirm with them that the new drive is set correctly.

    From my experience, most third-party resellers don't advertise what settings their readers that makes get a suitable replacement that is very difficult.

    Kind regards

  • High temperature CPU on Satellite M30

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M30 852 with Pentium M 1.5 GHz processor. My problem is that the heater does not start until the CPU temperature reached 70 degrees, which I think is a bit high, no mention that when it has reached this temperature I can not keep the laptop on my legs because it burns... and also to kind of warm around the touchpad and left side of the keyboard.

    My question is if there is any software I can use to take the cooler start at low temperatures, to keep, or if there is no setting I can adjust the laptop utilities to solve this problem (in addition to throttle CPU cooling where is defined in the performance).

    Thank you all in advance!

    Could PS: Anyone tell me which button support when starting, to get into the BIOS...? Because the F1, esc or del does not work.

    Post edited by: master of ceremonies

    Hello

    The temperature of 70 ° C nothing unusual and in my opinion not too high.
    Is that it s not recommended to use the laptop on your legs or in bet, etc.
    You should always be sure that there is enough free space (left, right, bottom) around the laptop for the circulation of fresh air!

    Usually, the Toshiba power saver controls the cooling method and the CPU processing speed. If you want to change some settings you should the fact in the basic power saver menu.

    PS: on m30 the phoenix BIOS has been installed and therefore, you should use the F2 key.
