Update of disk with the Portege 2000

First Post! I am the proud owner of gently used Portege 2000.

Browsed the web trying to find out if the Portege 2000 will be one hard disk other than the MK2003GAH. I have a MK4004GAH, but when installed it does not seem to be detected, the BIOS reports no HDD installed. The reader might be deffective of course, but I have nothing else to connect to and of course I can't test it because it is not detected.

In addition, the 2000 does not use standard PC100 SODIMM? When I removed the RAM cover, it does not resemble a standard SODIMM slot.

Thank you guys

Hello

I no a lot of experience with this Portege, but I can just confirm that this laptop comes with 1.8 inch Toshiba MK2003GAH HARD drive. I don't really know which are hard are compatible with this model of laptop but maybe partner allowed in your country can give you precise information on this subject. They are specialized for the upgrade of the laptop.

On the module of RAM I found information that the Portege can manage with 512 MB max and module compatible memory PC133 256 MB - PA3158U - 1 M 25.

  • Reinstalling OS the Portege 2000 with IDE CD-ROMs

    Hello

    Recently, I got my father a Portege 2000 (purchased at the Japan if it makes a difference) on which I am trying to reinstall Win XP from the provided recovery CD (there are 3 CD containing Windows XP Pro and Win 2000).

    "I'm doing it with a USB FDD and Sony CRX75A CD-Rom PCMCIA that connects to the computer via a different manufacture PC Card ACR - A01 switchable between 16-bit and CardBus mode.)

    As I'm not very familiar with BACK, CardBus and start-up stuff, I read a lot of topics and found the following application, BootdiskP2000.EXE that contains drivers for PCMCIA and USB Toshiba CD-ROM cards. Then I ran and when the choice of CD PCMCIA external drive in the menu, I got the following:

    PC Card driver for external Rev:2203 of the ATAPI-IDE drives
    PCCARD found: IO DATA CBIDE2 V4.1
    ERROR: There is no PCCARD in socket A and B!
    PCCARD not initialized!

    So I searched the web for pilots BACK my ACR - A01 and found DUAOTA16. SYS and DUOATACD. SYS. Then, I changed my CONFIG. SYS (even when perhaps not properly as I'm not comfortable with it) by the addition of a menuitem and further:

    [SONY]
    DEVICE = A:\DUOATA16. SYS
    DEVICE = A:\DUOATACD. SYS D:TOSCD001
    When it works, I get the following:
    DuoATA16 CS Client Driver Version 1.01
    Copyright...
    CBIDE2: Not found CardServices.
    Driver is not installed.
    DuoATACD CD-ROM Driver Version 1.06
    Copyright...
    IDECD: No CBIDE2 card configuration.
    CD drive is not installed.

    If having a glance at HISTORY. TXT file from the startup disk, at the end it says: "If you use it with other CD-ROM, you must modify/change normally the driver CD-ROM (for example Toscdrom.sys - file!). and the driver, on which you have access to the card PCMCIA (Fcatapi.sys and FCPoint.exe). "but I have no idea with what I would have to replace it.

    Last point, my BIOS settings on page 2 are: device Config. = all devices that allows me to set the PC CARD controller Mode = CardBus/16-bit and by the way the CD manufacturing onther used to work fine with the Portege but with a Win XP driver.

    Someone has an idea of what's going on here, because I'm confused. Thank you very much!!!

    PS I also tried to boot using PXE - LAN to a PC running Win Server 2003 but that doesn't work either, but I'm going to start a new topic for it.

    And why Don t you try maybe a USB-DVD-ROM? A USB key will be recognized for sure. I installed a XP Pro with a USB-DVD-ROM on my Portege R200.

  • Error IDE #0 the Portege 2000

    First of all, sorry my bad English
    I send this error a while ago, but 2 days ago, I do retest and I want to know if with this new information, anyone has any new ideas.
    I have a 1'8 "hd giving 'IDE #0 error' ' with my portege 2000 but if I put with and adapter IDE in a standard PC, it works without problem, the only thing I see strange is that in a standard PC 1'8 ' HD as a slave not appear as master, I found the documentation for this type of hard drive that shows me jumpers I should use to configure the slave mode master hd and without" riders (as I connect to my portege 2000 and my adapter) it must be master, so I think that thar "IDE #0 error" appears because than the hd (I don't know why) was detected as slave without any reason... everything has an idea...

    I have a second question, after I installed xp sp2, I have install all drivers for Toshiba but hardware/system show an exclamation (driver issue) on "diskette controller" and I try to install common modules with different version but I can not, can someone help me

    Thank you

    Hello Gleoelo

    Almost 2.5 months looking for help. This is the forum of users and chances to have a detailed response to this technical problem are not so big. Portege 2000 is portable to very sensitive design and I really don't think there are that many users have experiences with this model of laptop.

    Why don't you contact technicians. I really think you need professional help. With the installation of the OS I think you should try to install SP1 and Windows XP Home edition with SP2. After the operating system and any installation of Toshiba stuff, you can install SP2.

    Is this Portege laptop and I am sure that it was preinstalled with SP1.

  • The Portege 2000 via PXE - LAN operating system reinstallation

    Hello again,

    So as said before I'm trying to reinstall Win XP from the recovery provided CD.
    In fact, I have 4 CD: one that contains only Windows 2000 Pro and 3 CD containing Windows 2000 and Windows XP Pro. Of course, the 4 CDs were shipped with the computer.

    I tried via the floppy and CD-ROM drive that does not work (see previous section), but I also tried via PXE - LAN.
    So I installed a trial version of Windows Server 2003 in 3 months on my desktop and ran the RIS (Remote Installation Service).

    1. He accepted the CD Windows 2000 Professional as a CD of Windows Setup, but when you launch the Portege 2000, after some time, when he looks for the configuration of the computer, I get an error message that the driver for the network card is missing and it may not all go further.

    2. when I run the installation remotely with CD 1 of 3, it does not even recognize as a Windows CD of Installation!

    So, I managed to install a Win XP Family Edition that I run normally on my desktop, but I don't have any driver installed (WIFI, infrared, sound card, etc.) but also, I have only 1 license for the home edition.

    Someone at - it an idea on how to proceed with this method (I mean with the 3 CDs)?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    > Has anyone at - it an idea on how to proceed with this method - I mean with the 3 CD
    Do you mean the Toshiba recovery CD?

    I never tried to recover the image of Toshiba via RIS, but in my opinion that RIS does not recognize the 3 as a Windows CD of Installation CD1 because the recovery CD Toshiba image isn't really a Windows CD of Installation!

    The restore CD contains only the image files. To my knowledge these are ghost files

    Try a forced reboot. Hold down the home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds , until the Apple logo appears. You won't lose anything.

  • Windows allocate two disks with the same letter

    I had a systems problem where the computer would not be arrested because of the computer by providing two different players with the same ID letter ("F") during the race. The program kept asking I have reformat the drive "F". I had a former player ID'd as ('' F ''), I accepted. When the computer has been restarted I had reformatted the bad drive which was not initially ID had as player ("F").

    I get a message stating, Windows has assigned a drive letter for the U3 drive that already has another on your computer, or there is no more available on this machine drive letter. Try disconnecting that drives any network that you have connected to your computer, and then restart U3 by double clicking on launch 3. exe or the U3 icon of the CD-ROM system. Once the U3 Launchpad is running, you can reconnect the network drives.

    I deleted all the additional disks (4) and restarted the computer and still get the same message with all the drives removed. I followed the instructions as guest above and restarted the computer and still get the same message.

    The line above also comes with a troubleshooting option button, but when I select this it takes me to the Web and trying to sell me U3 drives.

    How to resolve this conflict.

    Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / disk (with the drive plugged already of course) and make sure that the screen is maximized and then press the PRTSCR button.  Then click on start / all programs / Accessories / Paint and open and right click on the area map and click on paste to create an image of screenshot of disk management.  Enregistrer save as Disk Manager, then select it.

Please copy this link and post it here in your next reply so I can see for myself rather than ask a thousand questions on what he says.

    I don't see how you could have used all the letters of reader available unless you have drives mapped to all kinds of network locations or even just disks, partitions or folders on your own computer (but a lot of them).  How many local mapped make you thing you have (as opposed to say the computer)?  I also don't understand how the system can assign the same letter to two different drives, partitions, networkk places, records or other in all circumstances - something is wrong and I don't know what it is given the information available at this stage.  Maybe see Disk Manager will help you.  Which version of Vista you are using (for example, 32-bit Vista Business SP2)?

    Hello

    There has been a lot of problems using svn with dw, and I know many people who have stopped trying to operate correctly.

    As much as I know dw will not work with newer versions of svn (over 1.5), and even then, there are a lot of problems, a possible solution is to try subweaver (at- http://code.google.com/p/subweaver/ ), as this has solved some of the problems associated with the use of tsvn dw environment.

  • Compatibility issue with the Portege 7020 / display CT 7200 & docking station

    Hi guys,.

    I have some problems with 2 cell phones.

    1 is:
    I bought a 7020 used to replace the broken of 7200 screen. After having disassembled the screen, I noticed that the connectors have the same number of threads, but one of the terminal of the 7200's screen has more. 'no problem' I thought, and with patience I picked up the cable of the adapter of 7020 one put in the 7200.
    But when I turned it on I saw only the colored lines and squares: S: S
    If you want I can provide with the NP, if it would help... Even if I check the compatibility before ordering.

    2nd problem:
    Portege 7200 correctly recognize the docking station, while a few beeps before starting the 7020, and obviously it does not work with him. I checked on the toshiba site and the dock would be totally compatible!

    And for the end... Where can I find the bios updates?

    Sorry for my bad English, I hope someone could help me!

    Kind regards
    Francesco

    Hello Francesco

    You'll be really lucky if someone here can help you with these old models of laptops. I'm sure they have about 10 years.
    No manual maintenance and sufficient knowledge is not easy to help you with this replacement of the screen.

    This problem with docking station may be related to defective hardware. The two laptops are so similar, and two of them can be used with this docking station. How you can be sure that equipment is high on 7020?

    The BIOS updates are available on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp, but as I can see for Portege 7000 there is no updated BIOS, just to 7020.

    If you wish, you can contact the nearest Toshiba service provider. they have manuals for maintenance for this old notebooks and allow you to provide accurate information on the parts you need.

  • Thud with my Portege 2000

    My Portege 2000 hard disk drive makes this 'thud' noises? Is this normal? I fear it may be about to break! Should I back up ASAP?

    Fear not ASP8686! The actuator gets ceased to be on the media to a ramp where there is inactivity disk of typically 0.5 s FYI, the actuator contains a control arm where the read/write heads are located at the end of the arm. The noise you hear is the trigger to achieve a magnetic catch. The heads are removed by the media. This reduces the amount of energy that consumes the hard drive and in turn, it improves the reliability of the HARD drive. Moreover, it is a good idea to back up your computer regularly!
