Satellite P300 156. Rubber feet?

Not a very technical question I know, but does anyone know where I can get the little rubber feet on the underside of the laptop?
I have lost one
Thanks.

Hi hawkerpaul,
I agree with the user above. You can get this rubber feet and all Toshiba spare parts from an authorized service provider in your country. Just follow the link posted by MisterX.
Furthermore its always interesting to talk with the guys a little bit. They are very friendly ;)

Satellite P300 -156 Windows 7 Crash Problem

Hello,
I have the Toshiba Satellite P300-156 PSPC4E model, and i have had this laptop for a couple of years now.
Before installing windows 7 i had the default Windows Vista installed, and it worked fine.
Now since installing windows 7, ANY game i try and play just causes the laptop to just go black screen and shut down after about 5 - 10 minutes of playing.
I thought this was due to an overheating issue... so i opened the laptop and cleaned it all out, and then put it back together again.
(YES i have checked all wires are back in where they should be and all components are working properly)
This didn't work.
Then i tried updating all my drivers, and software ect.
Still nothing.
I've trawled through pages and pages of search results for the same problems with Windows 7 and game crashing... but nobody seems to know how to fix it.
I thought it was just windows 7, but i re installed windows vista and it's still doing the same thing on there now.
I've tried installing all the drivers from toshibas website for this model laptop and no luck.
My windows vista and windows 7 are both genuine copys.
All the hardware is working normally (as far as im aware) and i really can't see what can be causing this problem.
If anyone could give me some advice on what to do it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi
Which display driver you are using? Im not P300 owner but on my A300 I had a similar issue that the notebook crashed during playing a game. It seems that the reason was a 3rd party driver or lets say the driver from the graphic chip manufacture directly. I think because they are not pretested on the notebook and causing overheating
So I would recommend installing the latest display driver from the Toshiba website.
Last but not least which Windows 7 version (32 or 64bit) you have installed and which BIOS version?
The Toshiba website shows also new BIOS versions and different versions for 32bit and 64bit OS. Maybe you have to update/change it Who knows?!

Satellite P300-156: Vista wont start after installation of Toshiba Tempo

Hi
I have a new Satellite P300-156 which I have been using for about a month with no problems. It has been great.
This morning I had a message come up to install Toshiba Tempo which I did and all was fine until I restarted the laptop and now Vista wont start.
I have followed all the diagnostic tools, tried system restore etc... but still nothing.
I currently live in Italy, so is hard to take it into a computer repair shop as I dont speak Italian and the operating system is in english.
From what I can see my only option now is to do the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery, but I would loose some data which I have done since my last backup. Is there any way to backup data to a usb storage device using command promts before I do this, or is there a simpler way out of this?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
Keith

Hi
Thanks for getting back so soon, however, F8 does nothing when starting. I have an option of F2 or F12, but neither gives me options to access last known good configuration.
Is that the same as a system restore from the Vista system recovery options as I have tried this (gives you a list of last known configurations). But still no luck.
If I do the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery function do I need a disc for this?
thanks

Satellite P300 156 PSPC4E - White Media LEDs stay on after power-off

HI
I have a Toshiba Notebook Satellite P Series P300 156 (PSPC4E) which has just developed a problem
When I power off, the laptop shuts down normally and power button itself goes off, but the 6 white media LED's to the right of the power button remain on constantly. The only way to get these to turn themselves off is to disconnect the battery.
Can anyone please advise
Many thanks

Thanks for the replies
I tried altering the BOIS, but that only affects the illuminated strip along the top of the mouse touch pad.
I cant remember which version of BIOS that I got (I'm at work at the moment) but I tried downloading the latest from here (dated 18/03/10), and it made no difference.
Its a strange one. The lights stay on even if the laptop is closed for long periods. They just never go off, unless I take the battery out.

Satellite P300-156 - Cannot install any OS

Hi
i have had a P300-156 for some time now.
It was fine up untill recently, when the DHCP client stopped workin and wouldnt start,
So i tried to restore from disc and had no dice with that attempt.
So i attempted to recover from HDD again no luck the laptop keeps freezing after the install.
So i tried to install Ubuntu on the laptop but again same problem, linux says "Buffer error I/O sdo" ??
I'm not sure what that is, it did however manage to wipe the entire drive.
And i cannot XP to install because it wont find the HDD.
So the situation is that i have no recovery methods and cannot install another OS.
Guys im really confused about what to do here, so if anyone can help please i need it.

Hi James
Im not quite sure if your HDD died or not but you should know that your Win XP Setup will not recognize the HDD too if the SATA driver was not included.
The point is that your P300 was equipped with the SATA HDD controller and the SATA driver is necessary and needed if you want to install any of the operating system.
The SATA driver is a part of the Intel Matrix Storage Manager.
So if you want to install the XP on your P300 you should firstly include the SATA drive into the XP installation CD.
This can be done very easily using a free software called nLite.
This Toshiba doc would be helpful for you because if describes step by step how to include a SATA driver;
Check this:

Satellite P300-156 - driver detected controller error on \Device\Ide\IdePort1

Hi
I have recently installed a secondary hard drive in my P300-156 and am having some problems with it. I keep getting Event ID 11 in the system event log "The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Ide\IdePort1." and suffer with very bad performance with this drive.
The drive is new and works fine in other systems and even works ok if I swap drive bays on my P300-156 but the problem with that is the drive does not fit in the other bay as it is quite thick. The drive in question is a Samsung HM100UI 2.5" 1TB Sata. I have also tried other drives in this bay and they work ok too.
I am using windows 7 ultimate and Intel chipset drivers. It's an Intel ICH8M SATA AHCI controller, driver version 7.0.0.1013. Have tried different drivers and AHCI/IDE mode. Also tried a fresh installation and the problem persists.
Am at a loss why this drive is having problems is there anything else someone can suggest to try?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks!! This worked! It seems the Intel INF auto update utility didn't update them to the latest. I had to download the [RST and AHCI Driver and GUI|http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=20110&lang=eng] and manually search for new drivers in device manager. Now the drive is noticeably quicker and error free :)
Thanks for all the help guys :)

Satellite P300-156 - How can I clean it?

I won't clean my laptop inside, but I don't now what screws I must remowe.
If someone take the back cover from any P300 to cleaning the fans, maybe will send me any picture or instruction, what I must doing step by step.
Thanks very much.
PS:
sorry for english if is something wrong, then please correct this :)

Hi!
If you want to clean the fan you must disassemble the notebook. This is not necessary.
You can use compressed air spray. This could blow out the dust from the cooling ventilators.
Such compressed air spray you can get from a local computer dealer.
I hope this is useful for you.
Bye

Satellite P300-156 - Screen wont come on

Hi
When I turn on the laptop, all the LEDs come on as normal, including the touchpad strip and media buttons, but the screen is totally blank. I hear the hard disk being accessed and see its LED flickering as per a normal bootup, but the screen is totally blank through the entire bootup, and never switches on.
There doesnt seem to be any consistency with the problem. This is twice its happened now in 2 days, and it took me about half an hour on both occasions to eventually get the screen to come to life by doing many power on/power offs (holding down the power button), removing/reinserting the battery.
Has anyone come across this problem before? Any ideas as to a solution?
I'm guessing its a ribbon cable issue perhaps.
Many thanks

Hi
It seems that you had some other problems with this unit in the past as described in the other thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=237201
Both issues could be related to the motherboard malfunction fact is that removing battery and ac adaptor cannot be a real solution. This temporal workaround might help to wakup the notebook from time to time but usually this is not a common notebook behavior therefore I think its more hardware related issue and this means that only an notebook technician might be able to help you in most cases the hardware checks are needed

Re: Satellite P300-156 - grainy display and vertical lines on it

Hi,
everytime I 1st start up the machine the display looks grainy and with 1 green line vertically down the right hand-side of the LCD.
When Vista completes start-up (with my white desktop background), there is lots of pink coluring on icon, when I press "start" and it displays the programs etc, the abckground is all pink! Also the pop-up web cam settings/opener is displaying the same.
To get rid off this, I restart the machine and all if fine. This is the only way to rectify.
Over the last week I have again tried to look at the problem...
I have changed the LCD, Harddrive (upgraded to 320GB), and updated the BIOS with latest version of this site. Now, it wil still do the same, but after 30 seconds (or so) it automatically sorts itself out.
I really want this sorted, has anyone got any ideas???
Thanks in advance!

Yes, when I changed over the screens, the same problem happens, but the odd things I that previously it would not automatically sort itself out, I had to restart the machine and then it would be fine (all the time, until the next day). NOW, since I again done a complete install (via cd ordered from Toshiba), and installed updates via TEMPRO including the BIOS, it seem to correct itself after approx 1 Min???
I also took out the memory and put back in, checked screen cables by pulling out and re-connecting.
I will try this eve on an external screen (my LCD TV via HDMI) and see what happens...
Thanks for your reply to my headache

Satellite P300-156 very slow

Hi people,
my laptop is very slow, pop ups still getting through even on the highest setting and like a fool when i purchased it i didn't make any backup disc!

The hidden partition is created by Vista and its contains the data and files which are necessary to repair the OS.
You can pres F8 when powering the unit.
Then a menu should appear.
Here you could choose first option: Repair my Computer.
Now new windows will appear.
If your notebook supports an HDD recovery option then you should find a point called Toshiba HDD recovery. If the HDD recovery is not available, then you will not find this point.
You should also find some repair points provided by Vista
Try it if you want

Re: Cannot find a Mouse Driver for my P300-156 which is now running Windows 7

Hi,
I have just recently upgraded my Satellite P300-156 Laptop from Vista to Windows 7 32bit (I am not particularly computer literate and had no idea that this wonderful new operating system might not run properly on modern laptops).
Have had a nightmare, as when starting the computer the screen is oversized and the mouse and keyboard don't work. It is a bit intermittent - occasionally it does work. I have had long conversations and numerous scans done by Microsoft and it now appears that the problem is the drivers are not loading up correctly. When we looked at the Device Manager we could see little yellow Exclamation marks (bangs as he called them) bext to the Display Drivers and the Mouse and Other Pointing Device Drivers.
My Windows engineer had a look on this website and could not locate a driver for the Mouse and Other Pointing Devices. Does anybody know if there is one out there? I cannot believe I may not be able to utilise Windows 7 on this laptop and may have to go back to the agony of using Vista. It seems crazy.
Hope somebody may be able to help.
Many thanks.

Hi Deborah23,
As far as I know Satellite P300-156 belongs to PSPC4E series. So I have checked official Toshiba website and I cant find Windows 7 32bit drivers. Now you have to options:
1.You try Vista 32bit drivers as Jeka wrote. From my own experience I can say that the most Vista drivers also work on Windows 7 so its worth a try!!!
2.You try Windows 7 32bit drivers from other P300 models. That means if you search without model number, you can find all Windows 7 32bit drivers. Maybe they work on your model too because the most P300 models are similar:

Replacement of rubber feet on Satellite 3000-X11

Hi
Does anyone know where I can get 2 replacement rubber feet for the underside of a Satellite 3000-X11? I have spent ages looking around the Toshiba site but nothing useful coming up.
Thanks in advance

Hi
Just to let you know, I phoned the Toshiba Authorised Service Partner. I called them and although they did not have any in stock, have ordered a pack of 4 which I should get in a few weeks. Minimum order of about 15 though!!

Toshiba Radius P55W Rubber Feet

Hi,
I am looking to purchase rubber feet for Toshiba Satellite Radius P55W. I could not find them anywhere on internet.
Please let me know if someone finds it.
Regards,
Mihir.

If no one locates them for you. Call or go to your local PC repair shop, they should have old - bad laptops that they will sell parts from. I made some from rubber, cut to fit and then used superglue to attach to the laptop bottom.

Re: Satellite P300-161 - Random Lock-ups/Freezing

Hi all,
I've had my Toshiba Satellite P300-161 laptop for roughly about 6 months now. However, during the past month or so.. I've been experiencing random freezing of the whole laptop.
It usually just starts off at anytime.. then it'll have a break then start freezing again. When it freezes, it lasts for about 10-15 seconds and everything goes to "Not Responding". Even Ctrl + Alt + Del doesn't load up the task manager until after the freezing stops. However, I've discovered that when it's in its "freeze" mode, where the applications are not responding, I can give the laptop a gentle tap with my hand on the open space area to the right of the touchpad... and it unfreezes.... Surely this is a bad thing.
I plan to take this back to where I purchased it from and have it sent off to Toshiba to get it fixed as I have a 2 year warranty with them IF I can't get help from here.
Much help needed.
Thanks in advance,
Benny Fung.

Hi.
Thanks for your reply.
Yeah, it's currently running on Vista SP1. I have reinstalled Vista _once_ for this laptop, perhaps I should reinstall it again before I take it back to John Lewis just to make sure...
I don't think it's overheating, as it can do it at anytime.. for instance, I could just be running Firefox and Messesnger and it still does it and with 3GB of RAM and 2.1Ghz, it should be able to perform simple tasks like that without overheating.
Hmm, What's this air spray cleaner thing you're talking about? How does it work?
Thanks.
