How do i connect my dvd ram drive on my toshiba m35x s114?

It could be a fan, try blowing compressed air with a canister (not to close) through the vent holes on side/bottom of laptop.

It could be the cd/dvd drive, try removing it if you can.

Yes you can. Here is one on Ebay.

All you need to do is a PC tune up. There are tons of applications that can help you with this . Go to cnet.com and download utilities . Am sure that can help

If it's a 250GB, the recovery DVD needs to format this drive (insofar as I know, Toshiba's recovery disks never uses quick format) - so .... yeah! It'll take a couple of hours just to prep the hard drive before the actual recovery imaging begins, and that's assuming that the hard drive formatted without errors.

If the hard drive has errors (bad sectors), it really could stretch out the total time. I've done a recovery on a hard drive that contained 100MB worth of bad sectors and it took an entire two days to put an image on it. Why'd I do it? I justed wanted to know how long it was gonna take...

Yes. Make sure to have the same technology. When extracted buy one with the same connections.

Looking at the specs, the max is 2gb for your Toshiba. According to this website, its only a 256mb ddr sdram. So my guess is you only have 1 slot for the ram. I'd go with a 2gb ram if you can afford it, 1gb just don't cut it in todays technology.

I believe its the PC2700 model, so find a 1gb or 2gb PC2700 @ 333mhz and you should be set.

You need to have the restore disk that came with the machine or if you don't have it, then you will need to get a Windows XP cd and find the drivers for your hardware on Toshiba's Support website.

DVD RAM drives plug in to any available USB port. Your computer should assign it a drive letter; using Computer, explore ther drive's contents looking for an Install application. Run this` application and you ought to be able to get to the drive.

Yes that model can support up to 2gb's of ram. Any other questions just send them to me.
