Tecra S10 starts in 8-10 min

I have a new Tecra S10 and a problem with a very long departure.

When I turn it on, after the "Microsoft Corporation" with the green bar (it takes about 40 seconds) the black screen comes there for appr. 4 6 min. During these long minutes approx. of the HARD disk LED flashes. once per second. Finally so I can see "wait" and the rest of the starting procedure. After you turn off when I start again in a few minutes (not more than about 10) the computer starts very fast (I think - normally) means in1, 5 min. If the break is longer the departure time is long yet.

Does anyone have any idea whats wrong?

I guess you have started your laptop for the first time and OS was not configured completely and ready for use.
After that several reboots of the preinstalled OS should be ready to use.

Beware also of Microsoft updates. By default it is set to automatic and when you're laptop computer online will starts to download all this and slow down performance and next reboot may take a lot of time again.

In my opinion nothing is wrong there.

    Hello

    I replaced my laptop battery and once I installed the battery pack with a compatible battery Toshiba-no, that my laptop won't start not from the battery alone (Tecra S10-114) after starting was performed by the power adapter (without fixing the battery), I installed it and the OS (WIN7 Professional) recognize and recharge the battery regularly.

  • How downgrade Tecra S10 to Vista?

    My friend asked me to fix his laptop. There Tecra S10-11 has. He had installed Vista, but it was installed Win7.
    Now, he wants to come back that Vista, but it does not create the recovery disk. I checked the laptop and there 1.46 GB recovery partition.

    It seems too small. How can I reinstall Vista and remove the installation of Windows 7?

    I don't know what your friend did exactly and how he had installed Win7, but you can try to start the operating system from the HARD disk installation > http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm but I don't think it will work.
    So to get Vista back you have two options:
    -To order the Toshiba Recovery disk under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx and have the factory settings or
    -To install Vista using the Microsoft installation disc. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page > http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

    The second option is not so complicated and with our help, you can do this. ;)

  • Tecra S10 - 64 bit of Vista and Win7 64 bit driver question

    Hello

    I own a Tecra S10 and using Vista 64-bit operating system.
    Unfortunately Toshiba isn't supporting this version of the OS, because pilots proposed must be taken on different products that use the same hardware.

    Is anyone know wether Toshiba will start sharing the drivers for Vista 64 bit soon and whats on Win7?

    I think that Vista 64-bit drivers will run under Win7, but * when they officially released drivers for 64 bit Vista or Win7?

    Any info would be interesting.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    Normally it comes out drivers * after the release of the operating system. This means you have to wait a few months more I think
    But you think contacting Toshiba? Guys, you should know better than us users here. If you write an email or call, it takes only a few minutes!

    In addition, you should try the Vista 64 bit drivers. Most of them also works under Windows 7.
    And it s worth a try! ;)

    Good bye

    For disk drive optical feature you n t need to install an additional driver.
    You can use your optical disc drive, the usual use of DVDs and CDs?

    Can you maybe send a screenshot of this message?

    As far as I know when you start the upgrade (upgrade disc put in ODD) you should see THE menu.

  • Tecra S10-11 a - frequent faults and long service life

    Toshiba Tecra S10-11 has, PTSB3E-01900GG3
    Purchase date: 14.08.2010.
    Expiration date of the warranty: 12.08.2013

    For 16 months, the computer has more than two months of service!
    It is currently in service (exactly 505 days, 65 days in service. (Terrible!)

    First rehabilitation 17/02/2011 the problem with the sound. Repairs took about 40 days (I don't have a computer for work replacement)
    Second recovery 25/12/2011 the problem with button walk / stop. The computer is still in service (I don't have a replacement of the computer for work)!

    The frequent failures with a very long period of repairs influence a lot on my work. In addition, I have to present and take the computer in Belgrade which is located about 220 km from the city where I work.

    Please consider, Toshiba as a company with a good reputation, the complete replacement of my computer because I am a user in a company and I got high cost caused by failures.

    Unusual sound that you indeed have to wait as long.
    But I think that this does not apply to all Toshiba FSA.

    A friend of mine had some problems with a mobile satellite. Don't know what the problem was, but the whole procedure took 6 days. The technicians were very useful.

    I hope that someone will get in touch with you in order to solve this annoying problem.

  • Issues of update/upgrade of equipment for Tecra S10-183

    Hello

    TOSHIBA TECRA S10-183
    Serial number: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Model number: PTSB3E-0YR04KGR
    Code BTO: P8700/2G/160G/15.4WBT/DS2/L/M/B/W/3G
    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
    'Intel SSD 520 Series 240 GB 2.5 SATA III'
    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.

    (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.

    (3) is the card graphic and/or welded directly on my cell or can I leave replace it? It is a plug-in card?

    (4) can I switch to a processor / CPU? What size?

    (5) the Mobile UMTS and HSDPA / HSPAU / LTE is capable?

    (6) I still can't be on the Toshiba support site:
    http://de.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/generic/SUPPORT_PORTAL/
    find when you enter the serial number or model number is not my laptop?

    On a response, I would be very happy.

    Sorry for the bad English. My language is German!

    So I hope that someone can help me with my questions.

    With sincere friendships.

    > Manually, 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:
    > http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/SUPPORT_PORTAL/
    > find when you enter the serial number or model number is not my laptop?

    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. :)

  • Tecra S10 - 123 and Linux Mandriva boot problem

    I have a Tecra S10 - 123 for two months and wanted to install Mandriva on it (I have no experience with Linux...). I burn the Image on Cd image .iso file and changed the bios settings to boot from the CD-ROM. It works without problem, but Mandriva stops to boot from the Live Cd once the kernel is loaded.

    What can I do?

    Maybe it's a SATA question, have you tried to set the SATA Mode in the BIOS to "COMPATIBILITY"?

    Work the other flavors of Linux? Maybe Ubuntu will install properly.

  • 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.

  • Tecra S10-11 - can I use a labelflash DVD disc?

    I have a laptop Tecra S10 - 11A.
    I would like to know if it is possible to change my internal DVD drive to another which has a capacity of 'labelflash '.

    Today, Toshiba sell laptops of the Satellite series with this kind of DVD.

    It ' possible to change my drive integrated with a Toshiba product or I have to use an external?

    Thanks in advance!

    Well, you must use a CD/DVD drive with the master/slave/c-salt settings compatible.
    The settings are controlled by ODD firmware.
    According to the user's manual these discs are supported;
    -DVD-ROM TEAC D-28
    -TEAC dinner Multi with DL recording DV-W28S
    -Panasonic DVD Multi DL recording UJ890
    -Hitachi LG DVD dinner Multi DL GT20N

    I don't know if one of these m readers would have supported the lableflash feature but usually you can order all the compatible parts of the ASP from Toshiba and maybe other drives with labelflash functionality would be compatible with your laptop
