  • Tecra 8000 - hard drive connection

    Hi,
    My old Tecra 8000 gave up last night after 4 years' faithful service. It's simply refusing to start booting most of the time. I think it's a motherboard problem as it occasionally boots from floppy and remains stable for about 10 minutes. I know that the hard drive is fine as I can copy files to floppy when booting from floppy into DOS mode. Is there any way I can connect the hard drive to a desktop PC so that I can salvage the files that are on there?
    Thanks for your help,
    Tom

    Hi guys,
    Thanks for all of your help, I went and got an IDE/USB convertor this afternoon - I didn't realise that you had to take the case off of the hard drive first to reveal the standard connector. Have rescued all of my data so quite relieved about that...
    Thanks again for your help. Best,
    Tom

  • Tecra 8000 - How to connect HDD to an other notebook?

    Hello, what kind of device do I need in order to connect an old Tecra 8000 hard drive to a notebook from an other manufacture?
    I just want to transfer some data but the ac connector on the Tecra no longer works.

    Hi!
    You can use an external HDD case with USB port for this.
    The external HDD case should be for 2.5 HDDs and with IDE interface. Thats all.
    Contact your local computer dealer. Im sure they will have such cases.

  • Tecra 8000 - CD-ROM defect - fitting new drive ?

    The CD-ROM of my Tecra 8000 has a defect. It tries to load a CD-ROM, LED is blinking, it stopps and then the drive LED is permanently on.
    So i assume the drive is busted.
    What kind of new CD-ROM is fitting to this laptop ? Only Toshiba original ones ?

    Hi
    Wow, the Tecra 8000 series is really old. Are you still using this notebook?
    It feels like the notebook would come from the Stone Age ;)
    However, I think the CD/DVD drive supports *IDE* interface but not all drives would be compatible because of the slave/master/cable select settings
    It looks like DVD-ROM drive +Toshiba - SD-C2002+ would be compatible.
    Not quite sure if you will be able to get such drive because of the device age but probably the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country could provide some compatible optical disk drives

  • Tecra 8000: Can't boot - Message "Insert system disc in drive" comes on

    I have a Tecra 8000 that I have not used for about two months. Now when I try to boot up the message 'Insert system disc in drive' comes on to the screen. I have tried three system disks but they have not been accepted and the same message appears. I have been in to the 'setup' and changed the priorities and tried FDD, HDD, CD-ROM and the same message appears each time. Is it possible that the internal 'backup battery' is totally discharged?

    Hi Alan
    maybe it doesn't sound so cool in your current situation, but there is actually something really good with the Toshiba's. It doesn't matter how bad the CMOS-battery becomes or even if you remove it. The system will always automatically detect the installed HDD (as long as it is working and within the specs) and set it up for you.
    That means in your case that there might be something that is physically defective. But before accepting that, please try to use the Boot device selection menu.
    Please grab a diskette or CD that you KNOW are bootable (best by testing on another system).
    Power on the Tecra 8000 and while seeing the TOSHIBA-logo, press F2 repeatedly. You should now get a textlist with bootable devices to choose from.
    Pick the one that you have a bootable media in (f.ex. the recovery CD's in the CD or a clean Windows media).
    Good luck
    Tom

  • How to get sound working on W2k on Tecra 8000?

    Is there any way to get the sound to work on a Tecra 8000 using windows 2000 pro? I just upgraded from win 98 and the audio driver installs the Yamaha opl3-sax, but there is no sound. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling different drivers, but none seem to work.

    Hi
    I would also recommend checking the device manager. If there is no yellow exclamation marks near to the sound card so I would say the sound driver was successful installed and there must be something wrong with the audio settings.
    Did you check the sound and audio devices in the control panel? You should check all the sound controller if they are set to the higher level.
    Furthermore I would recommend checking the volume controller at the notebook side. Sometimes peoples forget to set it. ;)

  • Tecra 8000: Question about AC adaptor

    In bad englisch sorry.
    The power suply of my tecra 8000 isn't working it's not the wire but the reciever? in the notebook. I have a new notebook but there are some files inside the tecra and because I don't have power I can't reach it. Does anyone nows a solution that doesn't cost me a lot of money?
    greetings H

    If a new charger doesn't fix this problem, another solution would be to use a Tecra 520 docking station if you can find one cheaply. This also supports the Tecra 8000 (but not Tecra 8100, 8200). This will power the laptop via connections on the underside of the unit and so avoid the broken DC socket.
    Of course you wouldn't be able to use the laptop as a portable, but it would at least provide a solution to enable you to retrieve valuable data.
    Another thought: If the data is important to you, you could remove the hard drive and insert it in to the caddy of another (working) Tecra 8000 laptop.

  • Tecra 8000 Laptop

    Hi,
    Has anyone had any success or even tried to install on this laptop?
    It goes fine until the display settings, I can only choose the default 640 screen, and I don't want that. in the specs sheet from toshiba it states Intel 440BX that is the chipset used, but when you go to the driver on the toshiba site it says it's Neomagic. Should I give up or is there suggestions anyone can give me?????

    thanks for the info, I will keep this link bookmarked,
    They are not showing the Tecra 8000. guess I will have to keep checking.
    THANKS!

  • Tecra 8000 & USB disks

    Hello,
    Is it possible to use a USB disk (data and/or audio) with the Tecra 8000? USB disks didn't exist when i first bought the laptop but floppy disks as you all know.
    I've tried but the message "unable to find a drive " or something like that pops up.
    Thank you for your help.
    Dino

    Hi Dino
    I dont have this oldie but I do not see any problem there. in the whole story important is data transfer speed. Older notebooks have USB1.1 and it is much slower that new USB 2.0 standard.

  • Tecra 8000/windows98se registry

    I have a tecra 8000 that has an intermittent startup fault
    when its been off for a while. Next boot it has error messages about windows registry and will shut down to repair registry, once it boots properly it is ok , including restarts, unless you leave it for a few hours or the next day. Has anyone any idea what could be the cause

    Hi Barrie,
    Thanks for the reply, I thought it would be in the windows registry too, so since the first post I uninstalled all the programs,(Which have been installed and working ok for about 6 months) but it still had the problem, so I wiped the hard drive,(fdisk, reformat, reloaded operating system)to start fresh, but would you believe it did the same thing. I dont know if the bios could make any difference, but I thought about updating that too, just to cover all bases, but there is no floppy drive and I dont think I can update bios from cd-rom.(I dont have access to an external floppy). Maybe I'll load only the operating system and see what it does

  • Upgrading Tecra 8000

    I recently have a Tecra 8000 which i got from work as they were buying new notebooks. After installing windows 2000 on it, i gave it a spin. I was suprised about the speed this little machine has.
    So anyone any ideas on how to get a free manual for it and some upgrading tips? (graphics for instance)

    MikeyC,
    You can download the user manual from the following link:
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/Tecra/t8000/manual/userman-t8000-en.zip
    The graphics chip is on the system board, so you will not be able to upgrade this. However, you may be able to add more memory, for example.

  • Re: Tecra 8000 and PA2834U MPEG module

    Hello,
    I would like to see DVD films on my old Tecra 8000 PII 300. I bought a DVD drive but films are choppy. I know about a MPEG hardware decoder option module (PA2834U) that can be installed as option.
    Can this module be installed on my Tecra? The model number is: PAT800E-B943IT, originally it came with a CD-ROM drive.
    Thank you in advance,
    Massimo - Italy

    Hi Massimo,
    my Tecra had a Modem installed.
    It is a little bit of hardware-fiddling, but it should be no big problem for you with an matching screwdriver
    to remove the modem (or wathever) and put in the MPEG-DVD decoder.
    I've got my decoder card from here:

    but they don't have currently one.

  • BIOS Update for Tecra 8000 without Floppy Disk

    I searched in this forum for a solution to update the BIOS without a floppy drive. The only one i found was this thread [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=66966&tstart=0] , but there is no .iso file for the tecra 8000 series.
    is there any solution to get the new bios installed on my tecra 8000 without any floppy drive ?

    I have checked Toshiba BIOS download page on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_bios.jsp and TRAD BIOS version is offered. This old Tecra is maybe 10 years old and at this time Toshiba has offered traditional BIOS update only.
    Win versions are offered later with newer Tecra 9000/9100.
    Sorry.
    Maybe stupid question now but why do you need BIOS update?

  • Tecra 8000: Missing OS, how to install

    I have this old Tecra 8000 and it had Win ME on it. I used some software called Kill Disk, and after reboot I get "OS Missing".
    I have a bootable CDR with a (legal) copy of XP Pro on it. But nothing happens when I insert the CD, it runs for a while but the "OS Missing" message remains. I have tried to reboot with the CD inserted, but nothing but the message.
    It's and old comp but I still want it to run, there are no mechanical failures, so...any help much appreciated.

    First account did not allow me to login, so I made a new account.
    Anyway, I can not alter my BIOS since the boot process is only about 1 second. All I have is the Toshiba logo followed by the OS Missing message. I know my way around the settings in the BIOS, boot order and all, but this I dont understand. I do not have a command line or anything, just this annoying message.
    If I start the comp while pressing F12, I get a message about how to insert a BIOS Update Diskette.
    - So I downloaded the latest BIOS update, copied it to a 1.44 MB floppy and inserted it into an external floppy drive. Well, that did not work out, probably some USB error?
    - I tried to burn the update files to a CDR, start the comp while pressing F12, inserting the CD on message, but no response either :(
    Any other suggestions on how to solve this?
