Tecra 8000 - connection of the hard disk

Hello

My old Tecra 8000 dropped last night after 4 years loyal service. She simply refuses to start to start most of the time. I think that this is a motherboard problem because sometimes it is starts on a diskette and remains stable for about 10 minutes. I know that the hard drive is fine as I can copy files on disk when booting from the floppy in DOS mode. Is there a way I can connect the HDD on a desktop PC so that I can recover the files which are there?

Thanks for your help,

Tom

Hello

  • Tecra 8000: Question on the HARD disk and the password

    Hi all
    A market recently my son bought an old laptop Toshiba T8000.

    Personally, I have absolutely no knowledge of the laptop myself as a desktop is everything I've ever used.
    However, I recharged the battery and the power, it asks for a password, even if what I believe to be the HD is missing (Vacant housing, left under the keyboard and behind the battery)

    Our local store offers him an incredible £121 a new HD

    HA wasted his pocket money on it or can he get a password and the HD at reasonable price to fit?

    Any help is greatly welcomed.

    BREZ.

    Hello

    Especially the password appears at the beginning of the startup procedure because the BIOS password has been set.
    Unfortunately, you cannot delete or remove the BIOS password if the old password of BIOS is not known to you. Either contact you the person who sells you the device and ask for the password or you will contact the service partner in your country for a deletion.

    I guess that's a Tecra 8000 with the number PAT80XE.
    This unit is a little older and so I think that hard drives are rare, a little so more expensive.
    By the way: the device supports an EIDE HARD disk interface

  • Tecra 8000: monitor and the HARD disk does not work - does not start

    I have a laptop Toshiba Tecra 8000 given to me the year last by my uncle. I live in England, but it is and bought the PC in Italy. I do not know if this causes complications, but I thought it may be useful.

    Since I got it it occasionally did not display any image of all system startup, so if I have given some time and restarted it would start working again. Happening of bagan more frequently and now I can't make it work. I have conections and found that everything was in place. Then he doesn't seem to be turning on, however when I replaced the front LED cable seems to be turning on and although I couldn't hear much the CPU was luminous heat. I opened the drive and it gave once more, succeeded him and he still wouldn't start. I had purchased and replaced the screws on the heatsink around this area but I did not handle it with many other things.

    So now, I have a monitor that does not work and a gard drive that won't start... Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Could be either the card mother, CPU or ram. The processor when it goes bad or is not locked in place (have had this before, install the CPU but forgot to turn the lock, so he cannot move) the computer will act as its startup, don't give any error and stay on a black screen. Verify that the processor is locked in place. Then remove the ram and try a stick of RAM that runs on another computer. If you try the RAM and the processor do not always start, then chances are your motherboard is dead and must be replaced. Hope this helps and that solve you the problem.

  • When I connect windows, the hard disk works for several minutes

  • Upgrade the hard disk on Tecra M9 will void the warranty?

    Hello

    I want to upgrade the hard drive on a Tecra M9 120 GB to a 200 GB Hitachi Travelstar 7K 200 hard drive SATA 3 GB/s. The coverage still apply for the Tecra after this upgrade?

    Kind regards

    charlieMOGUL

    Upgrading the HARD drive would not affect the validity of the guarantee.

    But I'm not sure on the size 200 GB HARD drive the BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation and not all dimensions are supported. If the HARD disk is too big, the BIOS would not recognize the new HARD disc.

    The problem is that Toshiba doesn't provide any information on HARD drive sizes possible.
    I think that you should just look at it

    If you have tested this HARD drive, please report it here in the forum I m very interesting if the 200 GB would run properly.

    Good bye

  • Can Tecra M9 - I put the HARD drive?

    I currently own a * Tecra M9 - 15I * (part PTM91E-04R03TEN No. - discontinued model).

    When I bought the laptop, it came with a 120 GB HARD drive. I am running Windows Vista Business which fills almost half of the hard drive. I want to upgrade the HARD drive because I think the upgrade to Windows 7.

    Is it possible to upgrade the HARD disk? If so, what are the compatible HARD drive options? If I do not change the HARD drive, this will affect the status of the guarantee of the laptop? for example, I currently have a 3 year warranty and the warranty upgrade HARD drive Toshiba?

    Hello!

    Of course you can upgrade the HARD drive on your laptop and this doesn t affect the warranty. HDD upgrade isn't complicated and so it can be done by the user.

    To swap the HARD drive, you need only remove the screws to the HARD drive Bay and remove the HARD disk cover. Then you can see the HARD drive and swap it.
    I don t know you, look in your user manual. You will find interesting information and photos on this topic.

    Theoretically, you can buy each HARD drive you want. On interface SATA there is no capacity limit.
    I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.

  • T400 problem booting from the hard disk, blinking cursor on the top left corner of the screen

    I have problems with T400 (2765-TDG). He struggled with the Setup, which requires power 5 minutes/disable to propely operating system boot.

    Computer laptop is less than two months, entirely properly the driver being up-to-date, then after that, nothing's been done about it to user or system administrator. Problem occurred suddenly after two weeks of mentioned maintenance.

    Symptoms:

    • After initialization of the mouse, screen goes black, and the upper left corner white cursor starts to Flash
    • There is no key keyb which can contine begin the process, wait for the reboot
    • There is no other device connected to the laptop, even mouse not
    • We have several, sometimes 3-4, sometimes even 10 times, to restart with the power button in order to get the boot of the operating system
    • When he is successful, just before the start of the operating system, the boot in diagnostic mode to start (with fast start disabled) I can hear only a single beep

    What I tried to do:

    • I changed the BIOS setting to force booting only from hard drive, cut off from any other starting device.
    • Also, changed from AHCI mode to compatibility for hard drive, but without help.
    • Turned off the coast of quick start, but during the startup process, there is no specific error indicated
    • Updated version of BIOS to 2.03 - 1.01 but with no help
    • Restored the default BIOS, no help

    Done some diagnostics generals, and here is what I noticed:

    • After changing the settings in the BIOS, save & exit, the computer hangs with a black screen. I have to turn off and on in order to continue the initialization. The settings in the BIOS are registered correctly.
    • When I was able to boot into the operating system (XP), graphics card sometimes is not recognized, not even by the original driver installation. In Device Manager, I have two graphics card drivers recognized traffic sign with "Intel management engine interface" device with warning sign
    • In Event Viewer, and then only error line is "Problem with HECI driver communicating with firmware" or something like that
    • Operating system is not able to enter in standby mode, it justshows white screen and I have to turn off the laptop by pressing the off button longer

  • Unable to connect to the virtual disk Service, Virtual Disk Manager Interface not registered

    I installed Windows 7 Ultimate on this laptop as a new installation about six months ago.  Since then, I don't think I ever ran diskmgmt.  Today, I joined a new external hard drive usb, it reported the drivers installed fine, but then the installation bombed at the beginning.  I went to verity, what had happened and has run diskmgmt.msc (as an administrator), but she came back with the message "Unable to connect to the virtual disk Service" and also a small OK msgbox appeared with the title "Virtual Disk Manager" and the "Interface not registered" message

    I disconnected the USB hard drive and tried again diskmgmt, but no change.

    I restarted in safe mode, tried diskmgmt, but no change.

    I ran sfc/scannow, but it has reported that it found no errors.

    I checked that the virtual disk service has been configured as a textbook in services.msc, and event viewer showed that when I ran diskmgmt he started VDS and then stopped VDS.

    I tried again, but still not like before.

    Is there some dll I can't regsrv32?

  • I want to copy my lightroom catalog and photos of the hard disk to another.

    I want to copy my lightroom catalog and photos of the hard disk to another. I tried to use the copy and paste, but when I try to open the catalog on my laptop lightrooom cannot find the photos because he is always looking for them on the old hard drive. How can I get lightroom to get on the new drive? When I try to manually connect the photos they disappear just from any folder, they are in Lightroom.

    Hi Mike Nature.

    Greetings.

    As you have already moved the catalog and the files on the hard disk up, visit this link on how to find missing images/files

    I suggest you look for missing files.

    The images do not disappear, but after the relining, they should be available under the new hard drive.

  • How can I access the hard disk in a satellite A30?

    Hello Daniel,.
    location of the HARD drive is down just under the CD-RW/DVD device.

  • Why the HARD disk is partitioned into C & D on Satellite Pro C partition

    Why the HARD drive is divided and how to use it?

    It is important that the one that I use?
    It turns into one big disk?

    The manual says nothing about this.

    Thanks for any help

    Ken

    Hello

    The HARD disk is partitioned and contains two partitions. The C partition is the system partition that contains the Windows operating system. The second D partition contains data drive HARD recovery.
    HARD drive recovery allows you to establish the notebook back to factory settings without the recovery disk usage.

    But it s is strongly recommended to create the recovery disk! The user manual provides the info on that in case something goes wrong with the HARD drive, the recovery disk allows you to recover the laptop.

    Of course, you can delete the D partition if you want to, but before doing so, you must create the recovery disk.

    However, my HARD drive contains 3 partitions. I created an extra. In my case, the C partition contains only system and the unique software. My files private like Mp3, movies, etc. are placed on the D second partition).
    The third partition (E) contains a folder with games.

    Is there an easy way to find and repair the defective HARD drive slot?

    Thanks for any help.

    PK

    Hello

    The HARD drive slot is not repairable. It s a HARD disk controller and I guess the HARD disk controller is dead.
    The HARD disk controller is part of the motherboard and if you want to repair it, so the entire motherboard must be replaced.

    New motherboard would cost a small fortune he of not good about market 350Euros
    That's why I put t think it is s to replace the mobo only to get the HARD drive in the first location of work

    This is my personal opinion...
