Only one recovery CD with my A30 (or A33). I wonder if it has a serial number associated with it. I bought my A30 as a display model and the store had lost the recovery CD and some documentation. But Toshiba was nice and sent me a...
I don't do gaming hardly ever, but sometimes run a big video editor and a few other apps and 512 Mb is fine for me - no paging noticed, on both my 8250 Dell tower and Toshiba laptop. I was looking for an excuse to go for 1 Gb but...
Try a special eyeglass (soft lintfree) cleaner cloth, available at eyeglass stores or very cheap in the Costco optical department. Wet the cloth with some eyeglass cleaner spray. That spray is made from water with a small amount of...
I have the A30 - actually an enhanced model called the A33 that I got for reduced price on a display model sale. It has a SXGA+ 1400x1050 15" screen which I like a lot. The current Toshibas almost all have regular screen...
Dacox - do you know for certain if the motherboard will take either the factory Celeron chip or a Pentium 4 like the one you popped in? Usually the chipsets and boards for computers are different for Celeron and Pentium 4, and ...
I'm trying that Speedswitch XP utility http://www.diefer.de/speedswitchxp/index.html and it seems to run fine but I'm not sure if I will use it. The I8kfanGUI however does not run well on this Toshiba, it cannot read some of the data,...
I've seen the A70 in stores and it's a nice machine. Just wondering how much fan noise you get? I have a new A30 (actually a floor model, it's now discontinued but a very nice laptop) and am tinkering with the Toshiba power...
Wow - your A30 looks quite macho on the specs. Did it come with a 3.4 chip? I have an A33 which is a vaersion of the A30 with 2.8 P4, 60 GB/4200 HD, SXGA+ 1400x1050, runs fine but I'm thinking I might later want to get a bigger faster HD.
Yeah, I thought it had a separate memory on the graphics board according to the Toshiba specs which normally say it is shared memory if that is the case. But now I think the A33 does indeed have shared graphics memory which is a...
I returned my original A33-4M4 to the store for a refund, since it would not work with the Echo Indigo pcmcia card I need to use. However now, a few months later, Echo has a fix for the problem, which happens on notebooks that use the...
