• Adding additional partition D for Portege Z930 with that 256SSD

  I just got a new portege Z930 i7 with 256 ssd and Win7 pro 64. It starts with 4 partitions already installed.1.46Gb recovery, 217 GB C, 8 GB hibernation and a 11.9 primary with the only option to remove.

  I can shrink the C drive to 110 GB offering 110 GB unallocated. But if I try to format the unallocated space it tells me that this will change to dynamic disks and there is not enough space.
  I have a D drive for the data. How to do this?

  Hello

  I recommend to use the 3rd party software called * Gparted.*
  It of based on the system Linux and you could create bootable USB flash memory stick containing Gparted tool.

  It is great for partition management.

• Motherboard for Portege Z930 B113 must send to the Brazil

  Hey, * I live in the Brazil and bought a laptop Portege Z930-B113 in Dubai on a trip.
  The same evil work and burned its motherboard, and now his need for a new.

  As here in the Brazil is not supported and toshiba do not sell parts for this ultrabook,
  Could someone send me an email or a store to buy this motherboard, with an international expedition to the site?

  If you need to request more information.

  Thank you.

  Portege Z930-B113 belongs to the PT234V series.
  I guess that this series was not available in North or South America.

  But the PT234U of Z935-P390 similar to Toshiba Portege is out on the American market.
  It should support the same motherboard, so I guess you could get the motherboard for Portege Z935-P390 to the Brazil that should be compatible with your Z930 B113 Portégé

• Maximum memory for Portege Z930 - 14L

  Hello

  I have a Portege Z930 - 14L with 8 GB memory and wonder what is the maximum memory I can add? I saw the following in the description, but I don't understand if this means that the maximum is 12 GB (4 GB onboard + 8 GB expansion) or 16 GB (2x8GB)

  Standard system memory: 8 192 (4 069 + 4 069 onboard) MB
  maximum extension: 8 192 MB
  technology: DDR3 RAM (1,600 MHz)

  Thank you
  Markus

  If I understand this right info your a Portege already maximum RAM.
  Is that your laptop Portege can manage with 8 GB memory max. On board, there are already 4 GB and there is only one slot of RAM available for upgrade that also contains a 4 GB RAM module.
  In other words, your laptop is already maximum RAM and upgrade is not possible.

  Any who tried to Z930 SSD update?

  The mSATA connector resembles the miniPCI connector, but they are totally different.
  So, your only solution is to replace the HARD drive with a 2.5 "SATA SSD.

• Are adapters CA / CC for Portege Z930 and Kira-701 compatible?

  Hello friends,

  My boss has a Toshiba Z-930 ultra-livre and power adapters about 10 - 12 for him around the world in his various homes and offices.

  He now plans on changing his computer. The same power adapters will work on the laptop Toshiba KIRA-701 or not? I tried to look to the top of the internet, but could not find any confirmation.

  If the 701 Kira is not compatible with the old charger so must be changed every 10-12 power adapters.

  Can someone help me with this information? The power adapters are not compatible so I might as well consider other brands, so I would have to change anyway all the power adapters.

  Thank you in advance.

  Umair

  Sorry, but I must ask you this question: do you want to buy new notebook without adaptors CA / CC and the use of old adapters CA / CC with the new machines?
  Sorry, but it makes no sense to me.
  Even if you want to exchange machine you, what you want to do with Z930 machines without adaptors CA / CC? It does not seem logical to me.

  In any case, I found the info that both models have adapters sector with the same output voltage: output current V. 19: 2.37 A so I think that both machines use the same adapter.

  I hope someone who own that Kira 701 can confirm this.

• Audio choppy and distorted on Portege Z930 after update of Win7 for Win8 64

  I just wanted to share a tip with you that cost me some time to work, about the sound reproduction of a Portege Z930.

  When I got my new Z930 - 14L, he was running Win7.
  I tried everything like you do when you get a new machine and it worked fine - including the audio playback.

  When I updated for Win8-64 since the CD that came with the computer, everything still seemed to work very well and I had not changed any driver or Setup.

  However, after a few minutes, the linenn of audio playback. It choppy, distorted, interrupted, stuttering and I was shocked.

  Oddly enough, as soon as I turned my attention to the computer again, reading was OK again - but no screen saver came and no power saving mode has come in so little time. I knew that this was no hardware problem (because it worked in Win7), it was not a driver problem (because the first 5 minutes, the sound was pristine), he was not a ground loop, (as many have suggested) because it sounds differently.

  Thanks to another forum, I discovered that it is actually the combination of Windows Defender, Win8-64 Pro and the audio driver that causes this. If the device is idle for a few minutes, the Defender thinks it's a good idea to use idle time to scan the SSD - causing interference with audio playback. Of course, you cannot simply disable or stop the central antivirus process, that would ruin some the whole point. :-)

  _So I installed Kaspersky suite on the machine (which automatically disables the Windows Defender) and the problem disappeared! _ it's probably the only time where the installation of an antivirus suite SOLVES a problem. :-)

  BTW, this is not probably limited to this antivirus product, simply play a bit with the Defender.

  Best, Yuppie

  > Then I installed Kaspersky suite on the machine (which automatically disables the Windows Defender) and the problem disappeared! It's probably the only time where the installation of an antivirus suite SOLVES a problem.

  Thank you much for sharing this details here in the community.
  I guess that the information could be useful for others who have these problems of his fellow men.

• Portege Z930 - 14 X - need key for the new installation of Windows 7

  Hello

  our company bought a Toshiba Portege Z930 - 14 X, and it is necessary to do a clean install of Windows 7.

  Unfortunately there is no key working Windows 7 can be found anywhere on the unit.
  I read the installation key, but the key is not supposed to be activated, so does not work for a clean install.

  There is usually a sticker of license at the bottom of the device, but this laptop has nothing.

  So, where can I find this Windows 7 key?

  Kind regards
  GSUs

  > Unfortunately there is no key working Windows 7 can be found anywhere on the unit.

  If you want to use a clean Windows system, you must purchase the MS Windows disk containing the serial key.
  Toshiba laptops are preinstalled with Toshiba image containing the OEM version of the Windows system and drivers. This image is already enabled. The series key isn t necessary.

• Portege Z930 - Downgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 7

  Hi all

  I have serious problems with my new laptop Portege Z930-138. I wanted to downgrade from Win8 to Win7 and transferred my old iso of Win7 on a bootable USB.

  I changed the BIOSsetting CMS BIOS in order to boot from USB and it worked.
  But later, I deleted all partitions on my HARD drive in order to have a primary partition where to install my old Win7.

  However I can't do!

  Now I have 1 GB 119.1 unallocated space and there is no way to create a new partition from it.
  Also when I try to install Win7 it says the disc's style GPT.

  I also tried to convert it from the command prompt, but it does not work.

  You guys have any ideas what to do?

• Portege Z930 - display driver does not work properly

  Hello

  We have a Portege Z930 with Windows 7 64 bit in use where the Intel display driver seem to work fine.

  First problem is the slow presentation on screen - if we open a (simple JPG) photo and move the window, the frame window break during the move and showed very weird.

  Then, we have installed a U3.0 dynadock docking for the use of two external displays more. This method works even worse. To the docking station, we used the driver from the CD supplied in the delivery and connect to a USB 3.0 connector.

  On starting switching on 2 screens instead of internally for computer laptop screen does not work - and we use workaround of using an extended desktop on all 3 displays (2 external and internal display for laptop as the third).

  In Internet Explorer, it should turn off GPU Rendering and use Software Rendering rather because otherwise, we observed critical irregularities on the external screens (with 2 Windows Open the screen froze or could not display Windows Mobile). However the display isn't satisfactioning.

  We have tried 3 different versions of the recommended Driver Intel which is also offered by Toshiba to download; We loaded it is there and also 2 versions more (a more recent, one older) Intel directly.

  So, how can we get this working properly?

  Thanks in advance and best regards,
  N. Cochems

  More importantly. Make sure you have Service Pack 1 installed Win7. New laptops have problems running in win7 RTM (without service pack).

  It seems that Windows uses the standard VGA driver instead of the Intel driver. Uninstall all display drivers from Control Panel-> programs and features and then go to the Toshiba website and install the utility Intel Chipset then the Intel display driver, then go to DisplayLink.com and install the latest DisplayLink driver for the dynadock. The new software v7.xx DisplayLink driver fixes several issues found in v6.xx drivers.

  Verify that the Intel drivers are installed properly in Device Manager.

• How to partition my new Portege Z930 HARD drive?

  Hi all

  I recently bought the Toshiba Portege Z930. I would like to create a new partition (for example D: /) on your hard drive, to store data, music, etc., and let the current C: / drive only for the use of the operating system.

  The problem is that I can't follow the normal procedure of partitioning my HD (via the Windows disc or by other software such as EaseUS Manager) because my Portege Z930 already has 4 primary partition created by default! Namely, these are:
  -1 1.46 GB recovery partition
  -1 8 GB hibernation partition
  -1 (hidden) 9.96 GB primary partition and finally
  -1 219 GB main partition

  As said, there are currently 4 primary partitions, which corresponds to the maximum number of primary partitions, I have. To create a new partition, one of these 4 must be transformed into a logical partition.

  I don't have to know if such a thing would be correct, or it would be the cause of the problems of the operating system etc. Also, I don't know which of the 4 above is more appropriate be transformed into a logical partition...
  I tried to contact Toshiba but the contact is very difficult with them.

  (1) does anyone have an opinion well informed about this?... happened... ?
  (2) I should I turn one of the 4 primary partitions above in a logic (and if so, where?)
  (3) what is the use of 4 partitions mentioned above?

  Thanks in advance for your comments,

  Hello
  Windows 7 is pre-installed on this laptop?
  Windows 7 needs the first (1.46 GB) partition to store files for the repair of the system.
  For example: in case something goes wrong with the Windows 7 system is able to automatically repair and this backup files on that partition. Don t touch!

  The primary partition (hidden) 9.96 GB seems to contain the image of Toshiba files.

  These image and music files is very important in the case where you want to create the Toshiba recovery disc (or USB) or you want to retrieve the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery option. Don t touch if you haven't created the recovery disc!

  The main score of 219 GB seems to be the system partition. This partition contains the Win 7 OS.
  The 8 GB partition is not known to me but you wrote there seems to be a hibernation partition. Maybe its required for hibernation data.

  However, first I recommend you to create a recovery disk.
  It is an essential environment where you want to set the laptop back to factory settings.
  You can change the partitions on the HARD disk.

  In General, you can have 3 primary and 1 extended partition or 4 primary partitions.
  Extended partitions can contain logical partitions for example: private data.

• Service manaul for Portege A600 PPA60A

  Hello!

  Can you please where can I get repair for Portege A600 PPA60A? If it is then how can not possible change HARD drive?

  Thank you!

  If there is no cover from the HARD drive or HARD drive, then the Base or the top cover will have to remove.

  Why do you change the HARD drive? You install a higher capacity drive?

  I guess that the laptop is under warranty, so you should get an ASP (authorized service provider) to do it for you then the warranty is not cancelled. According to me, there is a list of the ASP on the site of Toshiba.com.au, in the support section.

• Portege Z930 - 12 H - update of the BIOS and McAfee Endpoint Encryption?

  The update to the latest BIOS (Ver.6.70) for my laptop Portege Z930 12 H comes with the warning:

  «If you use the BitLocker Windows Drive encryption, please temporarily suspend (or turn off) before BitLocker Drive Encryption updated BIOS.»

  The same caveat applies to McAfee Endpoint Encryption, which is used on my laptop and I can * not * pause or stop? Or can I apply the upgrade of the BIOS safely?

  Thank you.

  As much I know Bitlocker isn't related to Antivirus from McAfee software and two security tools are not connected to each other. BitLocker is a tool for Microsoft Windows and McAfee is a 3rd party software preinstallation on the device.

  I found a nice how doc on the update of the BIOS.
