What Linux on Toshiba Satellite L300D-10 has

Hi all.

I have this notebook "Toshiba Satellite L300D-10 a" and I can't install any distro linux on it. Recently I have updated the BIOS to version 1.50 and now I am able to install Debian and PCLinuxOS, but again, they do not work as they should work. No supported wireless without ACPI support, can not put comp. in hibernate or sleep etc...

Can someone tell me if there are any linux distro with which it can work with this model without any major problems?

Thanks in advance.

I tried Ubuntu?

  • How to install new XP Pro on the new SATA HDD based on 2007 Toshiba satellite computer laptop (has no floppy drive) that came with Vista on the original HARD drive?

    I bought XP Pro of Circuit City when they were going out of business and never installed on anything.

    Access the Tishiba support web site and search for Windows XP drivers for your specific model number.

  • I want to update my speed, the pilot and the registry on toshiba satellite 1110.It has a speed of 54 Mbps. Im running windows xp professional.

    I had downloaded a free system of driver detective check and it says I have to update my registry, drivers and speed, but the downfall is that I have to pay for it. I do not have the Professional operating drive of windows xp, but I have the KEY figures. In any case, my computer is slow on startup and shutdown. In addition, when Im searching the Web. So, how or what should I do to repair my computer, in order to have a healthy PC and still have a program to tell me when my PC needs work? Thank you...

    Driver Detective is a waste of space and time and provides no useful information. It can even registry optimizer tool. They all snake oil.

    If you do not have the Windows XP cd or a recovery cd then you have a hidden restore partition which should be accessed to create the recovery disks?

    If you don't have the disks then juggle your sys could make it is unusable and so no recoverable.

    Update the drivers is not required, unless this update of the driver gives greater functionality or solve a known problem. Driver updates are provided free of charge by officials of your hardware. Don't use winupdate for pilots

  • Satellite L300D - Wireless has stopped working.

    Hello

    I use the laptop connected to internet wireless very well for some time now, both at home (via a router) and at the University, but until recently, when I switched the laptop on and he ceased to connect to the internet.

    The icon in the taskbar indicates that it is connected to a network, but at the local level and does not connect to the internet, the wireless switch shows that it is on and if the button is the fn + f8.

    I contacted the technical support to the router, as I had initially some worries with it a fair all the time, but they seem to think that this is a problem that the laptop itself because it connects to the internet very well if the cable is connected to him directly, but when it was via the wireless, the router was not find the device at all.

    I was wondering if someone could give me a helping hand to sort out the situation.
    Thanks in advance.

    > The icon in the taskbar indicates that it is connected to a network, but only locally and does not connect to internet

    In this case the refresh IP address could help.
    If you want to note the same problem in the future and then start the console (using the CMD command), and then type the command: * ipconfig / renew *.

    Usually, this helps.
    In my case, it always helps!

  • Satellite L300D begins only after the battery has been drained and recharged

    I have a satellite L300D that has a problem at startup. Last week, it closed but got stuck on the "Disconnect" screen for a long time. Finally I manually turn it off by holding down the power button. Don't think no more of him it happened sometimes with my computers. However, when I went to turn it back on - it was nothing. Power lights came to the front of the computer, but not to screen at all. Could not even access the BIOS. Nothing. It was like that for several days.

    Tried all the common solutions - removed battery, disconnect the power supply and press the power button - still nothing. Tried w/o - just AC, just the battery. Even stripped down to the motherboard to see if I could remove the CMOS battery and reset the CMOS but it is soldered on the motherboard. Put all back together, still nothing.

    Finally, I had to recharge my cell phone using a USB adapter and given that the computer had power I tried the usb port and it worked (for example, I could charge the phone - still no screen on the computer). The computer's battery is dead and I plugged it in. That evening, after the battery was full, I tried the computer and it has perfectly worked. Started correctly, shut it down, restarted and it was fine. Unplugged this night there and reconnected again in the morning and... nothing. Just a black screen. No BIOS.

    Killed the battery again then reloaded and now my computer is working again.

    Any ideas on what could cause this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Buddy,

    In my opinion her only the only one you can is update the BIOS like Akuma suggested. This problem is not related software so that s the only option you have I think. You can download the latest version of the BIOS here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    If this is not the case, contact an authorized service provider please. Guys can fix all this hardware related problems can diagnose this problem. Maybe the motherboard or something else must be exchanged.

    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite L300D - can't watch movies using a Toshiba DVD player

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D - 12L and the toshiba dvd player has stopped working.

    The laptop is always able to recognize the dvd as the 'AutoPlay' box appears when a DVD is inserted and says ' DVD RW drive (e :)) "at the top of the follow-up to the title of the film.
    I then click on 'play the DVD using a DVD TOSHIBE movie'... and nothing happens.

    I tried several different DVD, which I know work in other laptops or DVD players.
    I tried by following this link...

    http://www.TechSpot.com/VB/topic27616.html

    and deleted the lowerfilters and upperfilters but that cause problems and I had to perform a system restore.
    I'm running out of ideas and I would like to be able to watch DVD on my laptop again because I don't have a TV or a DVD player.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It seems that the CD-DVD drive can read the disc, but it seems that the Toshiba DVD Player cannot play video files

    Then maybe you should try to play the DVD using other software like Windows Media Player or VLC player download VLC player this small software and install it
    Then try to play the movie

    I recommend also to install the tool called DVD Player Update Check Tool that you find on the European driver Toshiba page.

    With this tool, you can check your laptop, if your DVD player needs an upgrade and if so, it gives you the download link for version upgrade needed.

    Hi all!

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D - 13 X

    But on the site Web of Toshiba, if I get his nr series, then he doesent get recognized. If instead of that, I use the small software that are supposed to log the computer model, which also fails to recognise my model. And last I tried to manually enter my model. I chose the Satellite L300D and then the nearest I can choose is L300D-h-13, but mine is L300D-13 X, should I choose the L300D-h-13 anyway?

    All those who recognize this problem, I would be most grateful

    Best regards.

  • What games can I play on my Satellite L300D-13 s?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-13 s http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/product/Satellite-L300D-13S/1059357/toshibaShop/reseller/toshibaShop/false/#0

    I want to know I can play the games.
    Can I play games like grid of driver of race, colin Mc Rae dirt, of grand theft auto 4 and more games like the 3?

    The Satellite L300D isn t a bad laptop but it s not a laptop of game as a Qosmio.

    I think you can play a lot of games on this laptop. Older games, you can play new games in medium or high quality, but is only on the lowest quality settings.
    Especially of GTA 4 needs a lot of performance, and as far as I know the first game that needs high quality a quad core CPU.

    Other games do you mean should not be a problem to play on this laptop.

  • Satellite L300D - necessary recovery image

    Hello

    I'm trying to restore my laptop to factory settings. It's a Toshiba Satellite L300D and recently it has been infected by the virus of security 2011 windows vista.
    It still works in SafeMode with networking, and safe mode but I n t want to run the risk of more. I tried years ago to make a recovery DVD, but it never worked.

    Now, I tried to retrieve from the hard drive, but he said, he cannot locate HDD 1 and recommended to try to remove the partition numbers which is something that I put t really understand.
    Anyway that I can't get back to factory settings.

    Is this what can I do to get my hands on a recovery image or address this issue. Any help welcome. Thank you

    Recovery image is designed for the specific cell phone model.
    Recovery image contains the operating system, all the drivers needed for some hardware platform and all the other extra stuff like tools and utilities.
    You can try to install this image of recovery of your brother, but I can't say for sure it will work 100%. It can happen that OS load and after a few seconds the blue screen.

    Look, if you like your laptop and you want to use some time, pay the 30 euro for the original recovery disc and problem is solved.
    Otherwise, I must say that this old L300D works well with Windows 7 then maybe it would be a good solution for install you Win7 and have much better OS than Vista old. It is, of course, the most expensive option.

    At the end is only your decision what to do.

  • Satellite L300D-11 a - reader problem DVD and blue screen

    Hello

    I'm going out of my mind: o.

    My Satellite L300D-11 has been delivered with a Windows Vista Home Premium, but I recently did a clean installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    Since then, I have had problems with 'Blue error screen' come randomly. Bought and installed a registry clean program, but that did not fix the problem. Anyone else with this problem - and a possible solution.

    And now, my big problem. My CD and DVD drive crazy me; (o) it's a rug * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA and my internet research I found that many carpet * an owners have had the same or similar problems. My drive won't regonize or CD play/play. DVD with videos or programs, I can play. CD burning is not possible and DVD burning is sometimes work and other times not.

    I have read on different patches is displayed - also here on the Toshiba - not of the suggested solutions forum works for me - the new solutions I could try.

    Seriously think about buying a USB external DVD drive - but can be it someone please tell me why Toshiba does not get their B fingers * and find a solution as it sews Sony did it.

    I look forward to any reply; (o))

    Hello

    I understand that it was ok with your laptop before installing Windows 7. It is so related to hardware problem software. Can you tell if it was original iso of windows 7 or the Assembly. Have you installed all the drivers for the Toshiba driver page and the maintenance of the right installation order? What burning software do use?

    Have you done this procedure mentioned in this forum:

    Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.
    Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Reboot the laptop and wait for the CD/DVD drive would appear once again

  • Recovery Disc Creator Error - Satellite L300D

    Hello

    First of all, sorry for my English, but it is not my mother tongue. About my technical problem is very simple: I use Toshiba Satellite L300D-13 b with Vista 32 bit. I tried to create a recovery using Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator disc, but when I start the program (Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator) gives me this error:
    "Cannot find the HDD Recovery folder on the second disc of the first hard drive. There is no valid disk HARD recovery environment on this computer.

    How can I create my recovery disk?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    New Toshiba laptops are delivered without recovery CD/DVDs and using Toshiba Recovery creator tool, you must create one. Toshiba has delivered laptop with factory settings. that means recovery image is recorded on the second partition in the file called HDDRecovery.

    When you start the creator Toshiba Recovery tool it contains the data of this file and burn it to support empty. If this file is removed or deleted the application clearly says the file / data that is / are missing.
    I don't know what you've done in the past, but now, you will not be able to create this recovery DVDs.

    You can order the new copy under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
    Of course it is not for free and you pay for it.
