• Re: Satellite m30 - 404 only standard installed driver windows

  Hello

  I have a M30-404 and I had problems with the graphics (nvidia GeForceTM FX Go5200) driver.

  The interface works very well with the standard vga driver in windows, but when I install the driver nvidia screen remains black. Sometimes, you see the desktop and you can move the mouse for 2 seconds, then it freezes.

  When I switch back to the standard vga driver, it works.
  You have little help?

  See you soon

  Hi beand,.
  pls download the driver intends on the toshiba site
  -uninstall all video drivers in safe mode,
  -restart
  -install the new drivers
  -restart
  fact

  * don't * use so-called 'refernce drivers' for your grafics, use the toshiba one alone...
  I'm sure that this will cure the problem.

• Windows XP starts problems with Satellite M30

  My M30 has operated for two years until a few days ago when he suddenly would ' t restart after running a Microsoft security update. He gave me different boot in safe mode options, normally, etc., but none of them work.

  I was told that if I use my recovery DVDs. It will clean my drive hard and with him all my files. I understand that my Windows XP software is on this DVD - I certainly don't have a disk full. It is true that I will not have the opportunity to try to repair or to cure the problem and if so will it buy an OEM Windows XP and install it separately? Or should I do something else entirely?

  Can anyone give me any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Tried set your windows to an earlier point of your 'system-recovery-point' that appears with the options-> boot in safe mode - boot in safe mode with network - etc.etc...

  It this fails, then you need to recover your entire system.

  In the first, true it s: you can't heal or repair your system with the recovery dvd, you can just reinstall your entire system and you have an operating system as the first day after you bought this machine.

  So, your only choice will be to reinstall your system to correct it, and to avoid the installation of EACH update to Microsoft because I had a lot of problems with some updates that causes my machine to do things like non-boot or some software crashes. It s better to stay informed about updates and install them just after you verified that the isn´t of update affecting your system stability or performance.

  To back up your files and recover your system, that you have to do following things:

  You said that your system is not initialized, but you need your files.
  Just take a UBCD4Win (http://www.ubcd4win.com/) from the Internet and initialize with this CD. You will have access to your files with this WindowsPE on CD and you will be able to back up your data on a USB drive or burn your stuff on the CD.
  Now, you need to start the recovery cd and let the automatic installation script do the rest. It will delete your entire hard drive and reinstall the system. After that, you can put the data saved to your hard drive.

  I hope that I might be able to help you. If you have any other questions just ask.

• Satellite M30-404: cannot change display brightness and THCI.dll is missing

  Hello!

  1. a few days I did a reinstall of XP. Now, I can not change the brightness of the screen. FN + F6/F7 does not work.

  2. when I start the computer, a message appears > an application cannot start because THCI.dll be found. A new installation of THCI.dll can help. But I don't know what is THCI.dll!

  My English is not perfect, but I hope you know what I'm talking about and can someone help me.

  Thank you very much

  Concerning

  Hi Tobias,.

  THCI.dll is the code for the application of the function of Toshiba key that is used on your laptop to control the selection of Fn key. You will need to install the utility Toshiba control of your tools and Utilities CD (or download from the Toshiba Download Page).

• Unable to connect to a WLAN secure with router Satellite M30 and BT Voyager 2000

  I just have everything reinstalled on my laptop Satellite M30 and cannot get my computer to connect to wireless internet as soon as I activate the shared WEP security. The laptop's wireless adapter is an Intel(r) pro/wireless LAN 2100 3B mini pci. I downloaded and installed the latest driver for the adapter (2006, version 1.2.4.41 ProSet version 7.1.4.7). My operating system is Windows XP.

  I use BT broadband with a router of Voyager 2000. The wireless connection works perfectly on the PC using a USB BT 2100 wireless adapter. There is a connection internet insecurity very low, nearby which I can connect to with my laptop. I'm sure that will all receive first set the Internet with BT I was set the router via and the home page of the router and did not have to do anything to the wireless adapter.

  Any help is very appreciated. I spent hours trying to solve this problem with absolutely no luck at all.

  Hello

  You see your wireless LAN?
  Do you have MAC address filtering? or have you activated the firewall?
  Clear all: WEP encryption, MAC address, filtering, firewall, etc...

  Then, login to your WLan and check if it works.
  If Yes, then it s your problem of setting and you have to carefully check what setting is incorrect.

  (In my opinion, your encryption key is false)

• Upgrade CPU on Satellite M30 106

  Hi people

  Could with help please?

  Just got an old Toshiba Satellite M30-106, a few weeks ago and [to be fair] it works OK with xp on it. I bought another 2 gig DDR which brings speed wise difference, but I can move the processor to the Intel® Pentium® M processor 725 1.60 GHz FSB: 400 MHz, 2: 2 MB level cache that s in there earlier?

  Can she take a CPU more high if so what s the highest? Would be very graciously tips please.

  Thanks in advance...

  At first, I must say that I agree with you that this laptop will work with Windows XP Home edition. At least this laptop model is designed for Windows XP Home edition. ;)

  I found some info on the processors on Satellite M30:
  + The Satellite M30 computer is equipped with a processor Intel Banias who +.
  + integrates mathematical co-processor, memory 64 KB of L1 cache and a 1 MB L2 cache.
  + memory. The processor works with one of the following speeds: +.
  + Processor Intel Banias 1.40 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.
  + Processor Intel Banias 1.50 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.
  + Processor Intel Banias 1.60 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.
  + Processor Intel Banias 1.70 GHz (1.35v) / 1.20 GHz (0.85V) +.

  Then maybe you can use the fastest processor 1.70 GHz. I don't think you'll see the difference.
  Best thing you can do is upgrade RAM to max and optimize Windows XP Home pre-installed, and you will be happy with this good old classic.

• 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

  Until you have created this topic, did you find it?
  [Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba laptop computer? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=13]

  If you want to risk this update check the specifications of the other portable Satellite M30. If you can find one with faster CPU, maybe it will work also on your laptop.

  But don not forget that the current CPU is tested in your laptop!

• Satellite M30-604 does not start after upgrading RAM

  I have exactly the same problem with a Satellite M30 604! I have 2x1GB sticks and screen stays black. It works if I use one of the 1 GB sticks and one the old 256 KB stick but not the 2x1GB sticks as it should be (according to the specifications of my model manual).

  Boths glue work perfectly, I tried to the sepparately.

  In addition, computer does not work with the single 1x1Gb stick, mandatory I have to combine a new (1 GB) with an old (256Kb), or just stay on the two old sticks...

  What can I do? PLEASE, I BEG YOU!

  Hello

  Satellite M30 can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM, but you must use compatible RAM modules.
  As far as I know, you can use the modules of PC2700 and PC - 2100 DDR SODIMM 200 pin.

  I think that you problem is certainly linked to a not entirely compatible RAM modules

  Hello

  To my knowledge the laptop supports dual-band built-in antenna and it was a 802.11(b/g) 13ch-minPCI WLan RTL8187B Realtek card.

  The replacement of WLan should be possible, but it s very delicate because whole books must be disassembled to gain access to the WLan module

  This can be done by a technician of the ASP.

  But why you want to replace the WLan?

• Upgrading the graphics controller on Satellite A30-404

  I have a Satellite A30-404 with a relatively weak Intel® 852GME Graphics controller, some people say that you upgrade this computer laptop isn´t possible since the graphics controller is onboard, but after some research on www.intel.com I came to the conclusion that this chip after all is not onboard but is a slot to order ATI or Nvidia a better graphic chip trough. but iam still not sure if the chip is integrated or not so I wanted to know if this is possible

  Hello

  On the net I found detailed information on the graphics chip:

  Intel 852GME graphics controller
  Montara GT code name
  Yes engine 2D
  Yes 3D engine
  64-bit memory data Bus width

  But as far as I know it s not possible to update the graphics card.
  If you want you can ask to view ASP.

• Satellite M30-604: unable to connect to the WLan

  Hi all

  I have some problems with my toshiba SM30-604

  First of all, I find the product in the section support somehow, even I can't find it by giving the serial number! ???
  Even with the program auto-detection!

  The other big problem is with the wireless card.
  Since the first time I bought the laptop when I tried to connect with some internet wirless networks I had problems with certain types of escryption of these networks.

  If the network is an escryption
  WPA,
  WPA 2,.
  WPA - PSK
  WPA2-PSK
  I can not connect to this network and he brings a message, something like "the network may not be available at this time" Although it is.

  Even if has a WEP encryption and password isn't a 10-digit is brings a message like "the neck should be 40 bits or 104 bits and 5 or 13 ASCII characters and 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters.

  The last days I can not connect to any wireless network for the above reasons.
  I know that its an old pc, but it is very good even for today an I still use it even I have other laptops

  Please can someone help me?
  Will there be some updates for my card toshiba wireless?
  I downloaded the automatic detection tool, but it does not recognize my pc model

  Under my pc has this data:

  SM30-604
  model No. PSM30E-0SY2K-GK

  the wireless card must be the:
  Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter

  I'm desperate this problem.

  > First of all, I find the product in the section support somehow, even I can't find it by giving the serial number! ???

  The portable M30-604 PSM30E-0SY2K-GK is an old classic. Right?
  Well, Toshiba driver European page you will find three categories: Archive, book and Options.
  If you don't find this portable model of laptop in the computer category then I would say that the next step should be archiving. Right? To me, it seems plausible to check the area archives due to the age of the laptop.

  In addition, the books are sorted by serial number; means that you won't find satellite M30 604 but Satellite M30 PSM30E.

  To my knowledge the Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 supports only 802.11 B Wlan standard and only the key WEP, WPA, encryption (AES +).
  FTP://download.Intel.com/support/wireless/WLAN/SB/intelprowireless2100mpci_prodbrief.PDF

  This means that if the WiFi network is not set to 802.11 B and if the WiFi network has been set to WPA2 encryption, so you won't be able to connect to this network.

• 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
