Does Satellite 2410-504 support USB boot?

I own a very old Toshiba Satellite 2410-504, which came out and was bought in 2001/02.
Am curious whether anyone knows it's possible to USB boot in this?
I have USB key but can't boot from it.
Maybe it doesn't support USB 2.0 etc.
Am not sure.

This is very old notebook model
From my experience such old notebook series did not support booting from USB flash memory stick.
Some of the series supported booting from USB FFD drive (its a drive which supported diskette. Maybe you can remember ;-) )
However, Im quite sure the BIOS would not support the booting from USB flash memory stick

Does Satellite 1900-102 supports USB 2.0?

Does Satellite 1900-102 supports USB 2.0?

Hi,
quad is right! I have a Sat 1900 and had the same problem. I wanted to connect an external HDD via USB 2.0
but it was a little bit slow with USB 1.1
I bought an USB 2.0 PCMCIA Card. After installing it, it works without problems!

Does Satellite 1410-401 supports USB 2.0?

I cann't find anywhere whether Satellite 1410-401 supports USB 2.0. If not - what would be the recommendations in order to add USB 2.0 support for my notebook?
Thank you in advance.
Andrianas

Hi,
sorry I have to disappoint you. The Satellite 1410-401 has only 3 USB 1.1 ports!
You can add USB 2.0 with external solutions like PCMCIA USB 2.0 Cards.

NEC ND-6500A DVD+-R/RW drive in Satellite 2410-504?

Can anyone tell me if an NEC ND-6500A DVD+-R/RW drive will work in my Satellite 2410-504 notebook? I have tried fitting one supplied new but the BIOS did not recognise it and gave an IDE #1 error message on boot up. I don't know yet if this was a faulty drive or if the drive is just not compatible. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Satellite 2410-504 wont start

Hi All
I have a sick toshiba Satellite 2410-504 laptop.
When booting up it says:-
"Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: <Windows root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
Please re-install a copy of the above file."
Ive put the Windows CD in the CD drive and I've gone into the BIOS and set the CD-ROM as the first Priority but it fails to boot from CD and just continues (what appears) to boot from the HD.
When I changed the BOIS priority it came up with a
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
So after reading this error message I've check the HD is installed and disabled the net card in the BIOS but still wont boot and reverts to the error message as above.
Any other ideas? Is the HD broke?
Why wont it boot from CD?

Hi
It could be possible that CD/DVD drive cannot read the inserted disk and therefore tries to boot from the HDD.
Therefore I would recommend checking another bootable disk like Linux live CD or just simply another bootable Windows disk.
If the disk is OK, then the CD/DVD drive might be affected. I had an similar problem in the past where the CD/DVD drive could not read the inserted disk. In my case the laser lens was dirty. I cleaned it using cotton wool tip and alcohol and finally could start from the inserted disk

Hi
As far as I know the wireless card is optional on this unit. This means that you can upgrade your notebook with the miniPCI wireless card which you can put into the wireless slot.
You can use these cards:
Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card (2,4GHz, 802.11a/b) PA3273U-1MPC
Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card (2,4GHz, 802.11b) PA3212U-1MPC

Does SCCM 2012 R2 supports PXE boot from Unix servers.

Does SCCM 2012 R2 supports PXE boot from Unix DHCP servers.
The client has DHCP on Unix servers. There are no Windows DHCP servers in the environment. Do we need Windows DHCP server for PXE boot.

You can use any modern DHCP server in your environment. DHCP is just used to help point the BIOS/Network Card to the right server, which in this case is your ConfigMgr Distribution Point with PXE Enabled.
It is strongly recommended to use IP Helper Addresses instead of the DHCP options though.
I hope that helps,

What series is the Satellite 2410-504

I'm trying to flash the Bios on this laptop but don't know what series or model it is.
It says S2410-504 under it.

Hi
The S2410-504 means the Satellite 2410-504 and this notebook seems to belong to the PS241E series.
The Toshiba European page should provide some drivers and also the BIOS to this series.
I found it in the *Archive Satellite Archive Satellite 24xx Satellite 2410-504 PS241E*
Check it out dude
Bye

Re: Does Satellite A300-15B support Windows XP?

Does Satellite A300-15B support 'windows xp?
thanks

I checked the Toshiba European driver page and didnt find Win XP 64bit drivers for ANY Toshiba series.
I think the Windows XP 64bit drivers will be not released.
Fact is that Windows XP 64bit was not so popular like Win XP 32bit or Vista 64bit OS
Secondly the Win XP 64bit is a discontinued OS so unfortunately, I would not wait for Win XP 64bit drivers

Satellite A20: BIOS update to support USB booting

Hi,
Does anybody know if there's a BIOS version for a satellite A20 which supports booting from USB devices (other than from the floppy drive, since that's already supported)
The reason i need this is because my cd drive is bust. And i'm a student, so i can't afford a new internal one, but i do have an external one... So i want to use that one for the recovery process...
I don't know if i can ask this, but can't i somehow tweak the bios that it WILL support the external dvd-drive, i know this is not recommended, at all, but i'm really really desperate :(
Can someone help me?

Sorry but Mike has understand you very well. If you want to install OS using external USB connected CD/DVD drive you need the right driver because at booting process it is not visible for your system.
Please talk with your friends at the university. Any of them must have enough know-how how to do this. If possible try to obtain external USB FDD and create somewhere W98 start disk. Start your notebook using this disk and load MS-DOS driver for external CD/DVD drive. It must be somewhere on the net. After loading this MD-DOS driver the external drive should be visible for the system and you will have access to it to start recovery CD or Microsoft installations CD.
Other way you can remove HDD from your notebook and connect it as external to other PC. If possible create two partitions and copy I386 folder to second partition. Put it back and start notebook using W98 start disk. You should be able to access second partition and start installation from second partition.
As I said talk with your friends and I am pretty sure one of them will be able to help you.

How to enable WLAN on Satellite 2410-504?

Hello,
please could you help me I am a little bewildered. I would like to wifi enable my laptop. It is a Toshiba Satellite s2410-504. If you know what this laptops short name is that would really help me. I don think it has a centrino chip so I think I will need to wi-fi enable it. I have researched it on the web but I am confused by terms like cardbus. Does my laptop have a cardbus? If not, how will I wi-fi enable my laptop?
Any suggestions for a competitively priced product (is it a chip or what?)
Thanks.

If the unit can be upgraded with the minPCI WLan card so mostly the slot for a WLan card is placed at the bottom of the unit.
Im not 100% sure if its WLan ready or not.
However, if its possible to upgrade the notebook with the minPCI WLan card so you can order this form the Toshiba authorized service partner in your country.
If its not possible to upgrade it so I would recommend switching to the external solution like a USB WLan stick
Such sticks are not very expensive and very easy to use

Will a dual core cpu fit im my Satellite 2410-504

HI Im thinking of upgrading my cpu to dual core I have a Satellite S2410-504 socket 478 mPGA , im want to put a Intel core duo sl9bn inside. Will this work?
any help please

A Core Duo would be a bit faster but wont make a huge difference.
I had a look at the online brochures, it looks like you can install a 2.2GHz Pentium 4 in that model, which should make a noticeable difference in speed.
There is no way a Core Duo will work with the Chipset in the 2410. There is too much of a generation gap. The Pentium M came out after the P4, which I doubt would work either.
When a new CPU comes out, it is released alongside a new Chipset chip. The new Chipset supports new features of the CPU, along with power management changes, and the update to DDR2.
Basically, if you want to use a Core Duo CPU, you need a mainboard with something like an i965 chipset (Northbridge) that has support for the Core Duo architecture. You cannot upgrade the chipset on a mainboard.

Does Satellite M60-135 support C-Sel?

Hello,
the TEAC DVD drive doesn't work anymore.
So I'd like to replace it.
Thinking about alternatives I stumbled about the Pioneer DVR-K16L drive.
But this one is obviously configured as "cable select".
Does my M60-135 support this or do I have to choose another drive?
Any suggestions welcome!
Thx!

Hi
Such information is not known to me and mostly if you want to buy an drive for you notebook you should firstly call the Toshiba authorized service provider for information about compatible drives.
There is also another possibility to find out what settings the notebook supports.
I use Nero burning rom and this application supports an diagnostic function. It listed the whole info about the installed CD/DVD drive.
After such diagnostic procedure you should know more details about the installed drive and you should buy the drive which supports the same specification
