Port Replikator for Satellite Pro S500-116

Which Port Replikatoren can be used with Satellite Pro S500-116?

If there is a Port Replicator connector on the Base of the S500, then you would need the Express Port Replicator.
Otherwise if there is no Port Rep connector, you will need to use a USB Docker, such as the DynaDock.

Satellite Pro S500 - Mini displayport also carry audio?

Does the mini displayport on the Satellite Pro S500 also carry audio?
Chris

I agree with user above. Only one port can transfer video and audio signal at the same time and it is HDMI port.
If your notebook hast this port use it for usage with TV. Using this port you will have best audio and video quality on the TV.
If you need some more info please let us know for which purposes you need this audio signal transfer.

Satellite Pro S500 - Recover Media Creator fails to start

I have received a new Satellite Pro S500 laptop. After initial setup, I have Windows 7 64bit working. I wanted to create the recovery media but the process fails.
After starting the "Toshiba Recoverx Media Creator" I get a dialog box where I can choose the language for the recovery media. My language is german. So I select German and press OK. For some seconds there is another Dialog Box with a Text "Please Wait..." and after some soconds it closes itself. Nothing happend.
Any other language selection in the first dialog box lead to the same behaviour. Even tried in Windows safe mode, but always the same.
Is there a log file?
Any help is appreciated

Hello Caramel
I presume you have bought your notebook in Switzerland, right? as far as I know only in Switzerland Toshiba notebooks are offered on several languages.
Anyway, recovery disc creation should work properly if recovery data are not removed or deleted.
Have you may be changed partitions structure on HDD or maybe deleted something?
It sounds to me that recovery data are missing and recovery disc creation cannot be started.

Satellite Pro S500-11C - poor audio performance

Hi Folks,
I have a Satellite Pro S500-11C which suffers from the poor audio performance mentioned in reviews of the S500-11C (yeah I should have *+listened+* to the reviews and excuse the pun).
This is making it very difficult to use this laptop for audio applications such as music, VOIP and Skype without having to carry about a heaeset of some type.
Has anyone else eperianced this problem and had a solution. Any help from Toshiba??
Best Regards,
Andrew

Sorry but what kind of problem do you mean exactly? Is the sound not loud enough or what?
I mean this notebook has standard stereo speakers and not high end harman/kardon speakers inside.
I have Satellite L300 in front of me with same stereo speakers. Sound is OK but not so good as on other laptops with h/K speakers.
By the way: what kind of help do you expect? Some new driver that makes speakers louder maybe?

USB port issue on Satellite Pro A300-13Y

I have a Satellite Pro A300-13Y with 4 USB ports. The two right side USB ports dont work. I have bought this laptop recently (2-3 weeks ago). It has a Windows Vista Business SP1 on it. I have Chip set utility installed on it, I have checked the device manager and I have tried to find driver for this but I couldnt solve this.
Then I called Toshiba service dek, they say I have to install again to factory standard install to see if it might be solved. But I dont find it the best way and I have some applications installed on it and have some info on my laptop so, I would like to find another way to solve this problem.
Also I think it could be a hardware issue. Can somebody show the way how can I find or solve this problem? I can also send it to guaranty, but if I made a mistake and if there is not a hardware issue I have to pay for this.

Thanks for your post. I will try it next week because I have much value of data on it and they have to be transfred to an extern harddisk that I'll buy this or next week.
Only something to know, I see in device manager a lot of usb controllers liste (4 usb controller and 4 usb root hub) in the Universal Serial Bus controller, where two of them are usb2 enhanced host controller and the rest are usb universal host controller.
Does it mean that Vista has detected only two USB2 controlleres?

Cannot install the XP Modem driver for Satellite Pro A200

I'm a local network admin for Newbold College. We have new A200 laptops and we need XP Pro on some of them. I have tried to install the modem driver as one of the last drivers downloaded from the european support site. I also tried to Canadian site as well.
The driver install program doesn't seem to do anything. I tried to manually install the driver from one of Windows modem Agse/Toshiba software modem, but I have com port issues and I can't quire the modem.
Can anyone help me please!!!!!!!

Hi
What to say; I have checked the Toshiba Europe driver page and found all necessary and important XP drivers for the Satellite Pro A200.
Please note that the Toshiba European driver page provides XP drivers for 3 different Sat Pro A200 series!!! There is PSAE1, PSAE4 and PSAE7 series.
Please choose the right one!!!!
Furthermore you will find an installation instruction txt file on the Tosh page.
In this file you will find a right and important installation driver order!!! Please follow these steps!!!
I dont know exactly why you get the modem com port problems but I assume that a new XP and driver installation should solve this strange issue.
Good luck

External USB Hub limit for Satellite Pro C650

Is there a limit to how many external usb ports you can connect through the Satellite Pro C650?
Wtih the four port hub I have, the ports seem to work individually and all devices work normally when plugged directly into the lap top, but when all devices are plugged into the hub and lap top combined, there are errors coming up.
Thanks,
Karyn

Well, I think this should not be a problem if the single USB hubs provide own power.
The point is that the single USB port provides common 500mA and if more devices would share the power from one USB port then it could be possible that the available 500mA would not be enough for all USB devices.

Port Forwarding for Filemaker Pro on Airport Extreme

I really don't know what I'm doing - I'm trying to get my Instant Web for Filemaker to work - It was set up on my MacBook Pro and then I moved everything to this iMac and now it's not working. I do know that the port for FM Pro is 591. I have it set up in FM Pro sharing and it gives me an IP address that should work. Which, by the way, it does inside my network, but not from outside. So, I need to know how to set up the Port Forwarding on my Apple Extreme to make this work.

I don't use FM, but do port forwards on AE for my private website using DynDNS
Go to Applications >> Utilities >> AirPort Utility >> pick your AE and click Manual Setup button
Go to Advanced >> Port Mapping >> click the PLUS to add a new port fwd
Leave the Service drop down as is
Set public TCP and private TCP fields to 591
Set the private IP to the IP address of your iMac as your AE assigned it - I assume that your AE will have 10.0.1.1 and your iMac will be 10.0.1.X - not sure whether you use DHCP and let AE do the work or manually assign private IPs yourself
Give it a description in the next window. Not sure about advertising via Bonjour - I'd try both.
If you don't know what private IP your iMac has, go to applications >> utilities >> Terminal app and type this command: ifconfig
You'll see something like this. In my case, since I use Ethernet to connect my mac to AE router, the en0 is my active connection and my private IP is 10.0.1.12 as shown below. If you use WiFi, you'r main connection will be en1

Need info about max HDD size available for Satellite Pro M30-813

Hello,
The following question is mainly to be addressed to authorized Toshiba support personnel. What exactly is the limitation of a maximum size of an internal HDD that I could use with my Satellite Pro M30-813?
Recently, I have bought and installed seagate 160 GB SATA drive, onto which I have successfully installed WXP Pro and have been running it for quite a while with no problems. Recently, I have been copying large amount of data from an external hard drive to my new internal disk, and as the files were being copied as I noticed having about 50 GB free space left, I had experienced windows "delayed write failed" and a massive partition failure with no possibility to recover data. The system would no longer boot and the whole MBR was damaged. As the result, I have lost all data on my new disk.
Although, I realize that Toshiba is not responsible for additional hardware that I use with my laptop and that is not officially supported by Toshiba, I am certain that as an end user of a Toshiba product I have the right to know about a max HDD size limitation information for my notebook model. Therefore, I request Toshiba technical support representative to give me a straight official answer to my question.
Thank you in advance,
Andrejs
(You may also contact me privately at my e-mail address)

Hi Andrew
> The following question is mainly to be addressed to authorized Toshiba support personnel
I think you are in the wrong area if you are looking for an answer from an authorized Toshiba support.
This is a Toshiba user-to-user forum! You will meet here Toshiba notebook owner and enthusiasts who share knowledge and tries solve problems but nobody from Tosh :(
I could provide my experience with the M30 Satellite and the HDD upgrade possibilities.
In my knowledge the Sat M30 supports a 40GB, 60GB and 80GB HDD for sure.
In my opinion you could use the 100GB HDD but bigger HDDs will not run and functions correctly.
So switch to a lower HDD size and enjoy the notebook!
Ive goggled a little bit and found compatible HDD and the part numbers
HITACHI GBC000Z810 -> 80GB
HITACHI GBC00014810 -> 80GB
TOSHIBA HDD2188B -> 80GB
HITACHI G8C0000Z610 -> 60GB
HITACHI G8BC00013610 -> 60GB
TOSHIBA HDD2183 -> 60GB
TOSHIBA HDD2184 -> 60GB
I hope this could help you a little bit!
Best regards

Floppy Disk drives for Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series

I have four Satellite Pro laptops - a 4340, a 4310, a 4270 and a 4280 and I'm having difficulty getting the 4310 and the 4270 to recognise a particular FDD. My understanding was that Mitsumi D353G FDDs were compatible with these 4200 and 4300 series laptops but I can't get the 4270 and the 4310 to "see" them. They will both however "see" an alternative FDD I have - a Pansonic JU-226A202FC but I only have one of them and two laptops needing a replacement FDD. I have tried a D353G that I know works (from my 4280) in both the 4310 and the 4270 but to no avail. I'm keeping an eye out for another Pansonic JU-226A202FC FDD on ebay but no luck so far. It's so frustrating as I'm sure a D353G FDD should work in the 4270 and 4310 and I have two spare ones which I wanted to use. I've looked in TSETUP.exe and can see no settings I can change to make these laptops see the D353G FDDs so any help or insight greatly appreciated. Does anyone out there have a 4270 or a 4310 successfully running a D353G FDD or, is this a quirk and these two particular models were only made to work with a Pansonic JU-226A202FC FDD not the D353G FDDs? Any clues?

Hello
Unfortunately I am not technician but I assume that there is obviously some problem with compatibility. It is possible that pin assignment is different and you can not use them. If you want to have a precise explanation you should contact technicians. I am pretty sure that they have motherboard schemes and can give you a proper explanation and advice how to handle with this problem.
Good luck!

Need new motherboard for Satellite Pro C50-A-1E0

My son's Satellite Pro C50-A-1E0 went completely t*ts up. I think it is a common fault and requires a bios reset or something. Anyway I'm thinking a new motherboard will do the trick.
Any help as to which motherboard to get that is compatible and would this actually help?
Thanks.

Hi nessie
It is not easy to find new motherboard and believe me it is pretty expensive so you can buy new notebook.
What you can do is to contact nearest Toshiba service provider at first. Explain the situation and ask if they can help you with this. They are also able to obtain new motherboard for you.
Addresses and phone numbers you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

ACPI Compliant BIOS for Satellite Pro A30

Hello, I have a Satellite Pro A30 which has 1GB RAM and P4 2.8GHZ CPU. I was wondering when toshiba would be supplying ACPI compliant BIOS upgrades for these machines? Because I would like to upgrade to Windows Vista, upon running the Vista Upgrade Advisor, my machine will run Windows Vista Business, but I just want to use Windows Vista Basic.
So I began the upgrade from within Windows XP and once the machine re-booted to begin the Vista installation I was confronted with the Blue Screen, stating that my BIOS wasn't fully ACPI compatible.
This seems like such a shame as the machine is upto running Vista, but Toshiba have not provided ACPI bios upgrades. My bios revision is 1.80.
Any idea?

Hi Keith,
I have an A30 also, after Googling around I've found that the A30 is ACPI 1.0 compliant and Vista requires ACPI 2.0, there is little difference and there are workarounds published on the net but they seem too complicated for me. The websites I've read think it is unlikely Tosh will release an updated BIOS as they would rather users upgraded their computers.
I've been to the BIOS (Phoenix) makers website and followed a link to BIOS agent. They informed me they haven't produced an upgraded BIOS yet but I should try again in 6 months.
I hope this helps a little, if I find anything constructive out I'll post it.
