M35X - S114 overheatin​g

I have a Satallite M35x-s114 which keeps overheating and turning off.  I am told that the inside needs to be cleaned.  I'd like to get a copy of installation instructions or a diagram of the inside before I open it up.  Can anyone help.

  • Toshiba Satellite M35X-S114 Hard Drive Replacement

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M35X-S114, and the hard drive is broken. The hard drive model is MK4025GAS. Where can I buy it? Can I find cheaper one interchangable?

    You can use any parallel ATA drive that is jumper selectable as 'master'.  Cable select only drives won't work.  Local stores like BestBuy usually have a selection of replacement notebook drives although the PATA drives are getting harder to find with the spreading use of SATA drives.  To the best I can determine, your notebook has 48-bit LBA which would allow any size drive available.  There are a number of online vendors as well as local sources.  I've used NewEgg successfully in the past.

  • Hard drive replacement-Satelite M35X-S114

    I have a Satelite M35X-S114.  It currently has a 40 gb hard drive.  I would like to upgrade it to at least 250 gb.  Is this possible, or will it only recognize up to 137 gb?

    Toshiba never published any information about the BIOS in that machine (or any other, for that matter), so it's not possible to tell ahead of time.  There's enough traffic here that maybe someone who has hands on experience can reply.  There is always BIOS overlay software that can make a larger drive work.

  • No sound from speakers or headphone jack on M35X-S114

    Help.  I haven't had sound on my laptop for quite sometime.  I don't know if it just a driver issue/conflict,  though I have downloaded the current RealTek Audio driver, which didn't help, or if my sound card is dead.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here is what I have tried, the volume control on the side is turned up. The card is enable and it states that the device is "working properly".  I have plugged headphones into the jack and still have no sound.  I have tried the troubleshooting and that still didn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanking you in advance!

    I don't think I have anything to offer that you haven't done. In Device Manager, Device status says "working properly" and you've reinstalled this driver.

    Right?
    The only other thing I know to do is restore the hard drive to its original factory fresh contents.

  • How do I install my new hard drive?

    I recently purchased a Wetern Digital Scorpio 250GB PATA HD for my Toshiba M35X-S114.  This was the drive recommened on the Toshiba Laptop Accessories page.  I physically instaled the new drive but can't figure out how to get it started.  I used the System Recovery DVD for my computer thinking I could install the original software on the new hard drive. The guy on the tech support phoneline said I could.  When I tried to use the recovery disc I got all the wall to the message where it prompts me to "press C for continue or A to abort".  When I press C, the cursor moves right below the prompt and just blinks.  The tech support line said the process may take several hours but I let it do this for for 3.5 hours and the cursor was still just blinking below the continue/abort message.  Is this normal?  Do I just need to be patient?  When I used the recovery disk on the old, original hard drive my computer was completely recovered in 45 minutes.  Oh, BIOS reads "none" next to hard disk.  I hpe this helps.

    If the bios doesn't recognize the hard drive it means one of three things.
    The bios doesn't have 48bit addressing support built in so it won't recognize a hard drive over 137gbs in size.  There is no work around for this.  The only option is to use a 120gb or smaller hard drive.  While the detailed specs for that model state ATA-6 it doesn't ensure that the bios does indeed have 48bit addressing support, although it should.
    The hard drive is not plugged in all the way.  Try reseating the hard drive to make sure it is making a good connection. You might need to do this a couple of times.
    The hard drive is defective.  In this case it would need to be replaced.
    One thing to check is to power on the system with the hard drive installed and the drive bay cover off.  Put your finger on the hard drive to see if you feel any vibrations coming from it.  If not, then the drive is either defective or not plugged in fully.  If you do feel a vibrations it more than likely means the bios doesn't support a drive that large or there is some internal problem with the drive. 
    Until the hard drive is properly recognized by the hard drive you will NOT be able to use the recovery disk on it to restore the operating system.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

  • Can't install(format?) new hard drive

    I emailed Hitachi support and got this response.
    It works. Just a pain!!
    Hard drives of SATA type interface does not have jumpers to configure. You
    can still use a SATA 3.0Gb/s drive (set to 3.0Gb/s) in your system, but it
    will only work at 1.5Gb/s.
    If your have a PC system, you can temporarily install the drive internally
    and use our utility called Feature Tool that'll allow you to change various
    ATA settings. This utility has the diskette and CD version. If you do not
    have a floppy drive and are unable to create a Feature Tool diskette, you
    can select the Feature Tool CD image. The fourth download link is for the
    image file. This file will allow you to create a bootable CD version of
    Feature Tool when a floppy diskette drive is unavailable. For instructions
    on how to properly use this file, please refer to the documentation
    included with your CD burning software.
    If you have any questions regarding the usage of Feature Tool, please refer
    to the User's Guide (see page 17 on how to change the drive capacity). The
    Feature Tool and User's Guide can be downloaded from the following URL:
    http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#FeatureTool
    Before running Feature Tool, ensure that your system boot sequence (in your
    system BIOS) is set to boot to your CD ROM drive as the first device.
    Insert the bootable Feature Tool diskette or CD that you created and let
    the system boot to this CD.

  • Freeze during boot up

    I have older laptop in the Satellite series running XP.  When it starts up it will load the blue Pressing the F2 and F12 keys produce no change, nor does the "c" key when I try to install the system restore disc (starts to load and then stops). Response is the same whether running on battery or ac.  Anyone know what all the above means and how to fix?  Many thanks!

    Satellite M35X-S114 
    When I turn it on, the blue Toshiba screen comes up and then freezes.
    So you don't even reach the hard drive. Afraid I can't help with that.
    To test once more, start the computer and then press and hold the F8 key. If we're lucky, the Windows Advanced Options menu will appear.

  • Satellite M35x-s349 - DVD-ROM Drive not reading

    I have a Satellite M35x-s349. I got it around late 2004.
    It had this problem for a few months and I had submitted to not being able to read or write cd's/dvd's because I couldn't find my recovery discs. When the whole comp crashed I renewed my efforts, found them, restored it with the help of an external HD case, backed up and restored my comp. It was working great. I burned cds and watched movies with no problems for a couple months.
    Now it has stopped reading any kind of cd again. I put one in and the little disc flashes next to my cursor. I hear movement inside (both whirring and the eye moving) but after about 20 seconds it gives up and claims there is no disc in the drive. I don't want to have to do another system restore but I can't even read the Restore disc to reinstall the driver. Are there any thoughts on why this is happening if not any solutions? Any way to reinstall the driver online? I'm a mid-level comp user so I can understand most tech jargon you throw my way. I can usually solve my own problems but this one seems hopeless.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    -Tom

    A friend of me has a Satellite M30x. As far as I know this is the same model as you have but for the European market.
    His CD/DVD drive was faulty and had problems to read the disk. He bought a second hand drive from eBay and exchanged it by his self. Now it works again and exchanging the drive was pretty easy.

  • Broken DVD Drive on my Satellite M35x laptop

    Hi,
    the CD-DVD Drive on my Satellite Laptop apparently is broken and I was thinking about purchasing an external CD-DVD Drive and would appreciate HELP.
    In the event that I need to RE-Install Windows, would I be able to do this with an External CD Drive since I believe I need to boot from the CD to begin the reinstall and I am not sure if the Laptop will "recognize" the external drive?
    Thank you,
    Bob

    Hi Barrie, I purchased a (used) Drive for a M35X Laptop and to a non techie, it looked just like the one that was inside the Laptop but when I slide the replacement DVD-CD Drive in the opening, it did NOT "click-in" (connect to the MB) and wehn i turned the Laptop on and ent to My Computer, their was NO DVD-CD identified.
    I tried install new HW but again, the Drive was not recognized so my deductions are that the Drive may look just like the other one but it is not meant for this system, the drive could be OK but the connection to the MB is defected, their is something not functioning properly on the MB or most likely, I don't know what I am talking about and need ALL the H-E-L-P that I can get!
    Thanks,
    Bob

  • Freeze at Toshiba logo screen on M35X-S149

    My friend's Toshiba M35X-S149 was working just fine until Today. When it's powered up, it comes up to the Toshiba logo screen with "Press [F2] for SETUP, Press [F12] for boot device selection menu" on the left status bar and "phoenix" at the right of status bar, and freezes. Pressing those keys won't respond and just sits there locked up.
    I'm a tech, so naturally, disassembled the notbook to look for anything unusual, such as loose connections, bad cables, cold solder joints, etc., but found nothing. It's nice and clean.
    Anyone with suggestion?

    Hi
    It is very suspect if the user is not able to enter BIOS settings. Usually in this case it must be something serious. The only thing that you can try is to remove the battery for a short time and try it again.
    If you have disassembled the notebook did you also try to remove CMOS battery?
    Sorry but I dont see other solution as to contact Service partner in your country.

  • Very large resolution of my Satellite M35X

    Hi,I own a Toshiba Satellite M35X-S349 with an Intel82852/82855 GM/GME graphics card. Once,I changed output settings to TV.After disconnection of the TV, resolution of my laptop became to 800x600. I wanted to set usual maximum resolution 1280x800,but in "settings" i encountered posibility to set my resolution to appr. 2800x1500!!!I applied, resolution has been shanged, but in 1 minute,i changed it back to 1280x800.Now i can't change my res. to that(2800x1500).Everything is working properly.
    So,my question is: what that was:-malfunction of hardware or my video res. can be set to greater resolution than 1280x800.
    Thanks in advance
    excuse me for my english

    Hi
    I cant explain why it was possible to set the resolution to 2800x1500px.
    But as far as I know generally its not possible to set the settings to this high value. The 1280x800 is the highest resolution on this unit.
    A similar issue has occurred on my unit. After plugging my external monitor it was not possible to set my internal resolution to 1280x800 but only to 1024x786. After resetting the OS all works properly and it was possible to use the highest display resolution.
    On your unit the 1280x800px is the max resolution and you shouldnt try to set it to the higher resolution like 2800x1500px.

  • Toshiba M35X S109, having great issues with installing software - PLEASE help.

    I have a Toshiba M35x S109 and lost my harddrive.  I installed a new one and tried to reinstall software from the Toshiba Recovery and Applications/Drivers DVD.  When I first tried this it came up to the first page that said to press F1 for ok or F2 to cancel.  I pressed F1.  Then it went to the warning page telling me that all the data on harddrive would be lost if I continued.  Press A to abort or C to continue.  I pressed C.  It took me back to the first page again.  This happened over and over. 
    I called tech support and they told me I had a bad disc and could either get a new one or install from a full version of Windows.  I tried that as I have a full version of Windows 98 and an Upgrade version of Windows XP Home Edition.  I got the Windows 98 on and get to the desktop but can not seem to get the keyboard to work.  Mouse works, but keyboard does not work at all.  Reinstalled Win 98 as instructed by Tech Support and it worked.  Then we hung up and I did as they instructed and tried installing the upgrade to Win XP home ed, but when I needed to input the product key - again the keyboard does not work.  URGH.
    I called tech support back again and was told the previous tech support gave me bad info.  This guy said I needed to install from the Toshiba restore disc and left me with a million instructions that I did not understand on how to erase the harddrive of the Win 98 and then start over with the Toshiba restore disc. 
    I am so frustrated and confused and really need some good advice and help.  I have the 98 installed but the keyboard is not working.  The pc initially had the Win XP on it.  I will likely upgrade to the Win 7 if I get this going but can't get past this issue.  What should I do?????
    Do I need to erase WIN 98 and start again from the Toshiba Restore Disc?
    If so, why would the Restore disc not work when I initially put it in and try?  This problem continues to reoccur with the old and new Toshiba Restore Disks.  What else could be causing this?
    Can I go from Win 98 and fix the driver issue or what ever it is and move on with the rest?  How do I fix the problem with the keyboard?  
    ANY AND ALL HELP is very much appreciated!  Thank you.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Did the flash complete, or shut off prior to finishing? If the former there is a chance, but if the latter there is little that you can do at home to fix this (as in, if you need to ask you have neither the equipment or the skill set to fix it yourself).
    Do you have the Intel or the ATI graphics on your laptop?
    What bios revision was on the laptop originally? If you don't know that then why were you trying to update the bios as you wouldn't know what revision to install? Plus, it would have come with at least rev. 1.0 installed already so why would you want to install that again? Trying to install an older revision over a newer one won't work without some specific flags added to the command.
    Did you flash from a startup disk or from Windows?
    Can you get into the bios settings by pressing the F2 key (or whatever key that model requires)?
    Have you tried a reset of the system by doing the following. Unplug the AC adapter, remove the battery, then press and hold the power button down for a minimum of 30 seconds.  Now replace the battery and AC and see if you can now access the BIOS when it starts to power up. 
    Are you sure that the new hard drive is properly installed AND working correctly? Did it work prior to what appears to be a failed bios flash?
    I'll try to help, but I'm afraid this might be a bad flash which will require sending (or taking) it to a qualified repair shop/technician who has the special equipment and skillset to reflash the bios using an Eprom burner and that will run you about $100 or so the last time I checked.

  • M35X - fan start but the unit shuts down after just 3 sec

    Hi, i have a Toshiba M35X and when i press ON it starts but in 2 or 3 seconds it shuts off....
    i already changed the memory and processor, but nothing.....
    sometimes the main chipset harms sometimes not, the processor idem....
    I thank to anyone helps me!!!!!
    thanks

    Hi
    Maybe is the problem just overheating? Try to clean up the unit. It is also possible that you didnt exchange processor properly and there is no enough cooling paste. In this case the processor can burn out in just few seconds of work.
    Sorry but you should check the unit by technicians. On this way we can just speculate about possible causes.

  • Satellite M35X-S111: Cannot install W2k and Vista

    Greetings! Today I have tried to install windows 2000 on my notebook m35x-s111 but my attempts have not crowned success. After copying initial drivers there was "Blue Screen" speaking about that it is necessary to disable Bios shadow and Video Shadow. In BIOS such options are not present, there in general anything is not present from adjustments.
    Today has tried to install Windows Vista RC1 but result that screen and the message on that what not full ACPI (is incompatible). I understand, that it is necessary to disable all these options and then the system will be install but how to do it???

    Hi,
    Whats for error Code becomes you by the Installation from Win 2000 in the last line by the Blue Screen?
    Is this a official Version? Or a OEM Version?

    You becomes not for all Hardware Drivers for Vista.

  • SATELLITE M35X-S111 takes 6 to 30 minutes to start

    HI,
    I HAVE A  LAPTOP. WHEN I WAIT LONG ENOUGH (FROM 6 TO 30 MINUTES) FOR IT TO TURN ON, IT WORKS PERFECT. I PUSH THE ON BUTTON AND IT TURNS GREEN THE FANS COME ON FOR ABOUT 6 SECONDS AND TURN OFF. THEN I WAIT FROM 6 TO 30 MINUTES AND IT STARTS AND RUNS PERFECT. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE FROM; BATTERIES OK, CHARGER VOLTAGE 18.48 VOLTS, SWITCH RAM MEMORY AROUND, SWITCHED POWER THEME OPTIONS (STAND BY, HIBERNATION ETC. ETC.). WHEN COMPUTER IS RUNNING I CAN DO A RESTART AND I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. I'VE TALKED TO 3 COMPUTER REPAIR COMPANY AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE OTHER THAN POSSIBLY A COMPASSITER IN THE MOTHER BOARD. DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?
