  The OS is 32-bit previously connected original Vista.

  Hello

  > They work fine in USB mode, but in eSATA, I get no response from the TECRA S10-128
  I was a little confused m
  As far as I know that the laptop supports the eSATA/USB combo port it s on the left and it conforms to the USB 2.0 standard.

  A (HDD) connected eSATA device cannot be recognized unless it s connected to the eSATA port, while the phone is in standby or standby.
  In this case, disconnect the eSATA device and reconnect it while the Tecra is turned on.
  Usually, it takes about 10 seconds until the eSATA device would be recognized by the laptop. Don t try to disconnect and reconnect the drive before this period has elapsed.

  In your case, I would check the BIOS settings.
  The second page of the BIOS provides eSATA settings. Check it out.

  I also recommend the installation of the OS switching device Configuration.
  This can be done as well in the BIOS

• Satego P100-10U - can only use 3 GB instead of 4 GB of RAM

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satego P100 Notebook 10U (Modell Nr.: PSPAME - 004002GR) and now I have done an upgrade of RAM of 2 GB of RAM to 4 GB of RAM. My problem is that my Windows 7 64-bit and my 64 bit Ubuntu, do not use the full 4 GB of RAM. The OSs show me that they are 4 GB inside, but he can already use the 3 GB. BIOS has been updated to v. 4.80 and nothing happened.

  Please help me if it is possible in German. My English is not very good see you ;-).

  Thank you

  Björn

  Hey,.

  How much RAM will be recognized from the BIOS? He sees the full capacity of 4 GB?

  Theoretically, it might be possible that some memory is reserved and used for other hardware components like graphics card or something, but if the BIOS detects the whole capacity everything is ok.

  Hi Damir

  As I see that you do have a general problem with e-SATA, but just when you want to use this device to some so I think that the solution is not so easy.
  This device is not known to me, but I suppose you guessed it with USB cable. You can use it with any other standard USB port?

  Pre-installed software: Yes [R11382GR]
  Purchase date: 13/05/2011

  I use above professional mobile phone use for CAD programming as well as for Office applications.
  2 GB RAM (standard), I can increase up to 4 GB Kingston (ex aequo) on purchase.
  With the 160 GB HARD drive, I had a lot at the beginning of the loss of speed.
  So I leave a month later to a switch of OCZ Vertex 120 GB of a second
  And lasted almost 9 months without problems.
  Now, I don't have so much free space in my SDS. So I would like to

  Skip the leave.

  My question would be, I would get this problem?
  (1) in theory, SATA3 work perfectly well this SSD 240 GB right?
  In the manual, it is up to 120 GB SATA2 SSD in it. However, the 2009 manual. The information is very old. And at that time were not yet 240 GB free for end users of hard drives SSD SATA3.

  The SATA controller is not limited in size, you can use 250 GB, 500 GB or more large hard disks. The same should be possible with SSD drives since the controller is the same.

  (> 2) is there any Windows Professional / Ultimate / Business 64 for 7 as this laptop?
  > Original, I have Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. I wanted that my memory that expanded up to 8 GB. CAD program running on the 64-bit operating system much better.

  Don't know what you mean exactly, but if you want to installed Win 7 64 bit, then you can do without big problems the 64-bit drivers are available on the European driver Toshiba page.

  (> 3) is the card graphic and/or welded directly on my cell or can I leave replace it? It is a plug-in card?
  The laptop seems to be equipped with a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 150 M chip graphic. This is an external chip that is connected/soldered on the motherboard. But even if you can remove this chip, the upgrade is NOT possible.

  (> 4) can I switch to a processor / CPU? What size?
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  Generally the CPU upgrade depends on the chipset of the motherboard.
  You could upgrade the processor, if the chipset would support the new processor.
  There are still questions about BIOS support, but I've read here in the forum that some people have been able to upgrade the new processor.

  (> 5) the Mobile UMTS and HSDPA / HSPAU / LTE is capable?
  Support for 3G modules appears to support the HSDPA standard

  (> 6) I still can't get on the Toshiba support site:

  Maybe it is not inserted into the database, but your Tecra S10-183 belongs to the series of PTSB3E that you can search other models belonging to the PTSB3E for details

• Two screens DVI on Port Replicator II with Tecra S10-160

  Hello to all 2!

  Right now I'm working with two external 19 "TFT screens connected to the Port Replicator II (Tecra S10-160 inside with closed screen). A display is connected to the DVI port available, the other is connected on the available on the Port Replicator II VGA port.
  A single display (DVI) is used as the main office, the other (VGA) is used as office improved (both show different content).

  My problem is the poor quality of the VGA signal and the problem, my two new screens are only supported DVI.

  Is it possible to connect two DVI displays to the DVI - D Port Replicator II? I already checked several DVI-Y-cables, but I'm still looking for a solution connect two displays via DVI with the function to get two split screens and not the same content on both screens.

  Hope you got my point and have information or ideas for products for me.
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Have you already tested a VGA to DVI? So, you can use the VGA connector on the port replicator and your monitor's DVI port.

  I mean such a cable like this

  Such an adapter you can always use the function to get two split screens and not the same content on both screens. :)

• Can Tecra S10 - I order a recovery to another disk?

  Someone knows how to change the language of Windows 7 on a Tecra S10?
  Can I just order a recovery disc Englsih from here:
  [https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx]

  If so, what is the price of these discs?

  The PC has a license for the preinstalled Windows 7 Pro 32 bit German, and I need it in English.

  Hello

  I doubt that this will be possible.

  You can order the recovery disk only with the same Windows operating system which was preinstalled on your laptop.

  If you need a different language of Windows or another version of windows, then you will need to purchase an original MS Windows disc.

  This means that you will get the new clean operating system, drivers may be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba.

• Re: Tecra S10 and S11 freeze randomly

  We have several Tecra S10 and S11. Freezing randomly during the day. Some even twice within half an hour, others spread it throughout the day.

  The Tecra is all Windows 7. Some have 64 bit, others a 32-bit installation. After installation of Windows 7, we have removed additional software we don't need, like McAfee, Toshiba goodies (Assist, Tempro, etc.), Ebay, etc. After that we activatie Office 2007 and Microsoft put updated laptops. So far so good.

  However, after a week or two just work in Word causes the Tecra to freeze. Same ctrl + alt + delete does not work. The Tecra should be forced to turn off the power, press and hold the power button.

  Everyone recognizes these "frozen moments". It's very annoying.

  It is not easy to say why this is happening.
  Always it is that Office is preinstalled on almost all laptops Toshiba so I did not thing your laptops can be somewhat different.

  Maybe something else responsible for this?
  Maybe are all connected to your business LAN and there is a problem.
  Are connected external devices which can be responsible for this?
  Maybe some internal software of the company is blocking something.

  It is not easy to say what he can be.

  Have you done tests in the past to see what can be the problem?

  I agree with Akuma. Disable the internal mouse and external use only. I have old Tecra M1 with the same keyboard and in my case the problem was faulty Acupoint placed on the keyboard.

  With the new keyboard, everything was OK again.
  I recommend you to disable the mouse of the computer laptop and external use only.
