Toshiba Satellite P20 - 404 Drive

Hello

I have a rug * a uj811 dvd - ram drive in my notebook after insertion of a cd that it t could not read, he has stopped working (I think that was the reason).

In Device Manager, it is marked as loans and works, but if I click on it in the Solution Explorer, the system tells me that there is a device I/o error (I'm not sure if this is the proper translation, because I have a German version). I can't access the drive, read or write CD & DVD! Two friends of mine had a similar problem with the same drive (they have satellite p10). It stopped working without any reason!

I found a new driver on the internet but couldn't t install, because it tells me that the device is not on this computer

Is there any help or it's broken?

Thank you

Junior

Hey Junior

I think that the drive is not defect or broken just isn't compatible with your device. The problem is that all readers used by Toshiba laptops cannot work properly with each laptop model.

If there is possibility to find one it will be the best solution.

  • Satellite P20-404: WLAN is not working

    I wanted to use the adapter wireless network for the first time after a defekt disc and a reinstall. It worked before, but I did not reinstall WLAN right here. Now I don't know how to install it. There is no entry in the network connections that could be my wireless network adapter.

    There should be a built-in Atheros adapter.
    I activated the WLAN-> no light beside the symbol WLAN;
    I FnF8 Switched-> nothing happens, I don't see any unknown hardware in the hardware list.

    Are there opportunities that I don't have a hardware problem?

    Hello

    Are you sure that the WLan worked, before your changed the HARD drive and installed the operating system again?
    I found information that the WLan is optional on Satellite P20-404.
    So I think that some units have been delivered with the wireless network card and others did not.

    It of very strange that the WLan card is not recognized in Device Manager. Usually, if the WLan driver is not installed on the operating system for the wireless network card must be shown as an unknown device.

    I think in your case it s something wrong with the wireless network card or WLan card is not installed.

    Hello

    It's no surprise! It of not possible to install the original graphic drivers of the graphics card manufacturing!

  • Satellite P20 - formatting drive HARD and the installation of Windows XP Sp2

    Hello world

    Beforehand, I want to thank you for taking the time to help me with my questions.

    Due to system problems I'm trying to re - install Windows XP SP2.

    Based on the installation process, I have two questions:

    1. when I start the PC, the operating system Windows XP installation CD in the CD drive, I am unable to run it directly. Instead the old operating system (which I want to remove) starts. Is there a specific key in the Toshiba P20 notebook that runs the CD automatically? I understand that when the Windows XP installation CD to run it gives me the option to format the HARD drive.

    2. If I want to format the HARD disk directly, what is the best way to do this?

    Once again, thank you very much for the help

    Best regards

    Q.

    Hello

    I assume that you have the original CD of Microsoft Windows XP.
    To install a new OS, you must start on this CD.

    Insert the CD and after laptop starting immediately press the F12 key.
    This will enable the Startup menu, and then you may choose the CD/DVD drive as the boot source.

    As to question 2;
    During the installation of XP Setup will ask you the HARD drive formatting. Simply to choose this option and the HARD drive will be formatted.

    Good bye

    Installed battery. The energy capacity Manager shows 0%.
    After 2 days of loading there are no Kampala. What's not here?
    The battery is a PA3291. How can I test the function? Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    just a few questions: is it a new battery and if so why you change the batteries. have you met the same error before and how long the problem exists.

    A little tip: sometimes it helps 'resettlement' battery, just so to remove it and insert it into your device. Maybe it works...

    Would appreciate comments on your part.

  • Upgrade the hard drive Satellite 2410 404

    Hello

    I want to improve my toshiba Satellite 2410 404 with a hard drive again. For now I have just 30 GB drive and is not enough for me.

    I checked three products to a new Toshiba hard drive.

    MK-8032GAX
    MK-1032GAX
    MK-1233GAX

    The model MK-1032GAX 100 GB is my favorite and now my question is, if this drive work with my laptop (im going to install the drive in a toshiba technical station, don't do myself.) or if I have to change something with my mobile phone, update the bios or something.

    Just tell me what I should do to work with this drive or if my laptop is not ready for it because it is nearly three years.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    As far as I know this laptop supports only 20 GB; 30 GB; 40 GB and 60 GB hard drives
    I guess that a 100 GB HARD drive will not be recognized by the BIOS.

    60 GB MK6021GAS HDD
    MP40KF 40 GB HARD DRIVE
    MK30kef 30 GB HARD drive
    MQ20ksf 20 GB HARD disk

    This behavior goes away when the 16-bit value.

    Does anyone know this problem or to answer this?
    Thank you.

    HI khadija.

    you wrote your p20's new ad out of the box, then you use the operating system preinstalled Toshiba, not you?

    You can try to reinstall the graphics driver (Toshiba Tools & Utilities CD or you go in https://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com - Driver download and choose your machine). Compare the two driver versions ad install the newest one!

    What resolution do you use?

    Your secod problem can be solved if you check your settings in the Toshiba Power Saver. Perhaps, you set its default value. If this does not resolve the problem, you must reinstall the energy saver!

    Tip: You can also use the Mode shows up. This mode stops the laptop and the power is off. At the next startup mode will point load of a hard disk image and you can work! It is faster that normal startup, and all power is off in Hibernation mode.

    However, when I turn off the machine the battery normally charges.

    Hello

    How old is your unit and has been the problem from the beginning?
    In my opinion it is either a problem with the motherboard electronic or battery failure there. The two cases are possible.

    So you could buy a new battery for a check or you will contact the ASP and technicians can find the fault.

    In my opinion, you should first contact the ASP. In this case, you need not spend a lot of money for a battery which could be allowed.
