• Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 problems

  Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 is usually a large equipment once it works! I have bought in December 2001 + additional 2 year warranty. Used every day for a business purpose - mainly on a desk anchored to the Port Replicator or inside-out of the office with WiFi.

  Almost after a year I bought it - one of the memory locations died on the motherboard! A machine still worked OK - only on a slot with installed memory capacity! So the 256 MB of memory and motherboard have been replaced by September 2002.

  Then the hard drive was noise - has been replaced as a guarantee somewhere in October 2004. So I thought that it is her - I have now a few years without problem again!

  Yes - all of a sudden a few days ago, I closed the lid for a coffee brake and after that the machine woke up to a strange sleep - the screen flickered and a machine was muzzy! Like the previous night failures that occurred before that I thought that this restart will solve the problem! It s woke up without the support of the voice! And after that I discovered that the WiFi card is always on - no matter if you switch the button on or off! If the service said that probably the motherboard has not once again!

  So, which brand and model to buy then?

  same thing with my nine M30 I bought last summer. I can't be able to turn off the WiFi keyboard functionality. the light is still on too.

• Satellite Pro C650 - cannot start Windows more

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C650 11Z model under Windows 7 Home Premium. I'm not very savvy computer. I can use my computer to perform tasks and use the software, but I m not very got when it comes to computer and tinkering under the hood, somehow.

  I was using the laptop yesterday evening to watch a You Tube playlist and was downloading a PDF 29MB file in the background. I have done this kind of thing before and never encountered any problems.

  When the download finished (I use Google Chrome) I clicked the button at the bottom left of the screen to open the download. You Tube then frozen.

  I could see the little green circle spinning around like loading upward download, but nothing was happening. Then Google Chrome no longer according to the bar at the top of the window.

  I tried CTRL + ALT + DEL, but the workload Manager wouldn t. The only thing I could do was turn off the laptop and running again, as it had frozen him completely. When I turned on it again, I had the Windows error recovery menu as shown in the following image.

  http://www.TechJaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Win7-error-recovery.PNG

  The problem is that none of these options does nothing. If you choose the recommended option (for example Startup Repair) it comes up with the gray bar saying Windows loads the files and then will just a black screen. By selecting Start Windows normally gets you to the swirling colorful circles that make up the logo Windows and he said: start Windows but still once, it does nothing but just stick to that.

  A friend told me that a BIOS reset * may help. However, I don't know how to get the BIOS on the laptop. He called Insyde H20 installed and I don't see the option to access the BIOS.

  Someone at - it ideas as to what could have wrong and how can I fix? I don't have a recovery disc as my laptop was bought for me by a charity. The warranty has expired now so that I can contact t their support line.

  To be honest I don't think BIOS has nothing to do with it. Start your laptop and press F8 several times to display the advanced startup options. You will find the option to start the operating system in safe mode.
  If please test and let us know what happen when you try to do.

• Satellite Pro L20 - cannot install Windows XP

  Hello!

  I discovered this great forum and wanted to try my luck with the following problem. Any help at all is greatly appreciated!

  I do a clean install of Windows XP on my Toshiba Satellite Pro LP20. I don't have the original Windows XP cd that came with the computer, but have you tried many (legitimate) copies of Windows XP with the same result:

  The first step of the installation works fine, IE. files are copied from the CD to the hard drive and the computer restarts once the process is complete. However, during the restart to calculate, is wrong on the second phase of the facility (where continues the installation of windows XP graphic), but goes back to the DOS file copy process. This means, even if the files have been successfully copied from the CD to the hard drive, the computer does not recognize that there is a current operating system.

  The problem is not in the boot order, like the HARD drive is my number 1 option, and tried without the installation Cd in the drive. In this case the computer says only: "no operating system found".

  Where is the problem? Is this a problem of motherboard BIOS, or do you recon that the HARD disk is somehow broken? I know that the problem is not in the XP installation CD, because it works fine on other computers.

  Thank you!

  It's not easy to say what is the problem and what are the causes of the problem.
  You can try another drive to install Microsoft?

  In my opinion, it could be a problem with the HARD drive. Then you should check this with the Drive Fitness Test.
  Google for this test, it of quite easy to use.

• Satellite Pro M200 - cannot start Windows

  I have a Satellite Pro M200 PSMC4A, did an update Windows, requsted to restart, then the black screen as follows:
  Windows could not start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. Equip the installtion disk and restart. Problem 1: having no disk - lost I think. Lost file is \Boot\BCD.

  Tried different legal remedies without success. Disk Windows XP used to reinstall but now says cannot see all hard drives!
  All of the suggestions.

  Hello

  You can access the advanced boot menu? If so, you should try to start in charge more than the last known good configuration.
  If this is not the only option is to reinstall Windows I think. Therefore, you can take a Microsoft or Toshiba drive. If you don t have the Toshiba disk recovery, contact the service provider authorized in your country.

  I think that the recognized HARD wasn t disc because you need SATA drivers. Did you check that?

• Satellite Pro L40 - cannot install Windows XP

  Material: Satellite Pro L40, HDD 80 GB, 1.5 GB of RAM

  Software: Windows XP + SP2 install CD, floppy disk with AHCI HDD ICH8M_32bit drivers drivers created according to the instructions in "how to install Windows XP on a L40.pd"f of Toshiba (which is pretty outdated by the way!)

  Problem: The start is fine, after pressing F6 quick to add drivers is very good, set up windows starts.
  Then I get this message on the screen: insert the disc labeled "Intel Matrix Storage Manager" in the A: drive. Press ENTER when you are ready.
  This is not mentioned in the installation instructions.

  Well, I don't have a disc labeled like that. I only have the disk that I created according to the instructions in the PDF above.
  It is already in the drive, so I press ENTER and nothing happens.

  My only other option is to quit smoking. Tried to quit smoking and going through the whole process several times - always eventually return to this impasse.

  (sigh)

  Can anyone help? Please?

  I think that you have made a mistake, because I never have problems to use the SATA drivers.
  Have you tried to do the floppy drive with the drivers and where did you download the drivers? Maybe you should try to download again on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  And have you tried to create your own with the drivers installation disk? You can do this with nLite for example. I prefer this because that is why I n t need an external floppy drive.
  It s worth a try! ;)

  Hi Peter,.

  Try you to an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If Yes, please try a new and clean Windows 7 installation. It work?

  Another question: your CD/DVD drive works properly or it appears with a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager?
  In your case, I would try to remove the drive from Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After that the drive will be recognized automatically.

• Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 cannot use USB 2.0

  I can't use USB 2.0 on my laptop (OS = Windows 2000).
  Where can I download this driver-USD for this Board (Toshiba laptop motherboard).

  Greetings

  Hello

  Have you seen yellow errors such as exclamation points in Device Manager?
  If not, in this case it of not necessary to install all the drivers.
  Moreover, the operating system automatically recognizes the USB ports.

  But what USB device doesn't work? As far as I know if this external device needs more energy than the 500mA so it is possible that the operating system can not recognize this device.
  In this case you need an external power supply for this part or you try to use the USB hub.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro 4600: BSOD when I use the PCMCIA of Vodafone card

  I want to use UMTS on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600. I got a card PCMCIA of Vodafone and installed with all updates.

  But if I want to use UMTS, and that means launching the application and connect to Vodafone, Windows stops with a blue screen:
  DRIVER_IRQL_not_less_or_equal STOP 0 x 0... D1, 0 X 0... 00, 0 x 0... 02, 0 x 0... 00, 0 x 0... 00.

  I think that the assignment of IRQS is not so good: http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/7151/toshibamw0.jpg

  Hello

  Have you checked if this happens with every PCMCIA card?
  I noticed that the Vodafone card causes BSOD on some portable computers with CPU P4 s and activated the hyper-threading technology.
  http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ5300W6000YR01.htm

  But there is also a problem with the firmware card Vodafone.
  An update of the firmware might help.

  Try to contact Vodafone support for new firmware and additional details
